115: The Land of Origin, the End of the Rules

With the affairs of the Cloud Court properly arranged, the three newly ascended Heavenly Destinies were sufficient to guard all directions. Yun Feng hesitated no longer. Following that faint, ethereal call jointly guided by the Qi of the origin core within him and the star map fragment, he took a step forward and transcended the ordinary concept of time and space, entering a strange passage interwoven with countless lines of Law.

This place felt like the flip side of the world, the underlying logic upon which all things operated. Time flowed in the form of a visible silver river, while space unfolded and folded back like a scroll. Various Laws appeared, collided, and underwent Fusion in the form of materialized ribbons of light. Had he not reached the Chaos Sovereign realm, even someone at the Peak of Heavenly Destiny would have had their consciousness instantly crushed by this endless torrent of information.

He did not know how long he had been "moving forward"—perhaps an instant, perhaps an eternity. The scene ahead suddenly opened up.

It was a "place" that could not be accurately described in any language. There was no up, down, left, or right; no past or future. There were only countless ribbons of primordial Law, flowing ceaselessly like genesis code, which together formed a "point" of eternal change, constantly coming into being and ceasing to exist. This "point" was both infinitely large and infinitely small—the starting point of all things, and perhaps the end of everything.

The Land of Origins!

Yun Feng could clearly feel that the Qi of the origin core within him resonated strongly with this place, like a wanderer returning home. The source of the call was right here!

He hovered at this origin point of Law and slowly spread out his Divine Sense, attempting to communicate with this Land of Origins. In an instant, a massive amount of information flooded into his consciousness—scenes of the birth of the endless Void Sea, how the first batch of worlds were nurtured from the Laws, and how the sparks of life and civilization were first ignited... Countless ancient mysteries unfolded before his eyes like an epic scroll.

At the same time, he also sensed a few other faint, yet essentially identical, auras of the origin core scattered in other distant corners of the endless Void Sea. They were independent of each other, yet shared the same roots and source.

Just as he was immersed in this vast ocean of information, a calm, ripple-free thought, seemingly synthesized from countless Laws, resounded directly in his consciousness:

"New Dominator... you have arrived."

Following this thought, the ceaselessly flowing ribbons of Law ahead slowly condensed, forming a vague figure that seemed to be composed of pure Dao Rhyme. It had no concrete form; it was more like the manifestation of the will of the "Origin" itself.

"The call of the origin core originates from here." Yun Feng looked at the figure, his tone peaceful. "Is this place one of the sources of the Void Sea?"

"A source? No." The thought from the figure of Law came back. "This place is a 'seed bank,' a 'backup point.' The true source... had already 'departed' or 'fallen silent' in an unknown, ancient era. We, including the one you have undergone Fusion with, are merely 'fragments' scattered by the source, bearing the mission of continuation and restart."

The amount of information was massive! The void origin core was actually just a fragment of some even more ancient and grand existence?!

"Fallen silent? Restart? Why?" Yun Feng pressed.

"The records are incomplete. The only thing known is that 'they' are coming soon. Those 'predators' who took advantage of the source's silence to steal Laws and distort the essence of things. The Divine Prison is merely one of their insignificant pawns." The thought from the figure of Law carried a hint of imperceptible gravity. "Your growth rate exceeds expectations. Perhaps... you will be the variable."

No sooner had the words been spoken than the entire Land of Origins suddenly began to tremble slightly! The surrounding flowing ribbons of Law became somewhat chaotic, as if interfered with by some external force.

"Look, they can already reach the edge of this place," the figure of Law said. "This is no place to linger. Take this 'Law Atlas'; it will help you integrate other source core fragments faster and perfect your Dominator realm. Find the other fragments, become stronger... before the final 'harvest' arrives."

A light talisman condensed from the purest Laws drifted toward Yun Feng and merged into the center of his brow. In an instant, his understanding and application of his own power as a Dominator ascended to a new level.

At the same time, a strange fluctuation filled with malice, greed, and an intent to devour and assimilate everything began to permeate from the periphery of the Land of Origins!

Yun Feng's eyes turned cold. He could feel that the essence of this fluctuation was of an extremely high level, far surpassing any enemy he had encountered before, and perhaps even rivaling him at this moment! Moreover, it carried a sense of decay and distortion that was extremely unsettling.

"Go," the figure of Law began to fade. "You are not yet strong enough to confront them head-on here. Remember, integrate the fragments, and beware... the Guiji Cult."

Before the words had even finished, the figure of Law completely dissipated, turning back into flowing ribbons of light. Meanwhile, that malicious fluctuation had already closed in, locking onto Yun Feng!

Yun Feng did not linger. He took one last deep look at the direction from which the malice came, etching the name "Guiji Cult" into his heart. Immediately, he invoked his power as a Dominator and directly rewrote the definition of the Law in his immediate vicinity.

"In this place, tracking is forbidden, and peering is forbidden."

His words became Law!

The approaching malicious fluctuation seemed to crash into an absolute wall of Law, emitting a silent roar of fury, but it could not advance an inch further, nor could it lock onto Yun Feng's aura any longer.

Yun Feng's figure flickered at the level of Law and had already departed from this Land of Origins, returning to the normal dimensions of the endless Void Sea.

He hovered amidst the familiar sea of stars and looked back; the Land of Origins had once again hidden itself in an unknowable place. But in his hands, he now held a heavy responsibility and a clear goal.

Integrate all the source core fragments and prepare to face the impending, terrifying enemy known as the "Guiji Cult."

His journey had officially moved from dominating a single region to the grand chapter of protecting the entire Void Sea.
