Creating Heavenly Laws

"Another place of opportunity has emerged?"

Xi Lan looked shocked. "This celestial phenomenon is the strongest I have ever seen. The treasures inside must at least rival ten-star cosmic rarities, perhaps even reaching the ten-star supreme level."

Xi Lan had experienced entering the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm multiple times and had witnessed many places of opportunity emerge, so he had a good understanding of their value.

The moment he sensed the celestial fluctuation, he roughly judged its worth.

"Ten-star, maybe even ten-star supreme cosmic rarities?" Lin Yuan was also tempted.

The World Tree was an eleven-star supreme treasure, and now the treasures in this distant place of opportunity might reach ten-star supreme?

Such high-level treasures are extremely rare even in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, and they don't emerge every time the secret realm opens.

While Lin Yuan and Xi Lan were observing from layers of space, two powerful auras instantly pierced through numerous layers of space.

Boom!!!

"Hahahaha, this place of opportunity is mine."

With terrifying laughter, a tall figure in a black robe appeared above the place of opportunity.

He gently extended his right hand and retrieved a treasure emitting a hazy gray aura.

Lin Yuan and Xi Lan felt a tremor in their hearts at this sight. The aura of this tall figure in black robes far exceeded the ninth rank's millionfold boundary, and the space layers he had opened were at least more than twenty million layers.

"I think I saw a galaxy being nurtured within that treasure," Xi Lan murmured.

Such treasures do not exist in the main universe, but the fact that they attracted a powerhouse capable of opening more than twenty million layers of space means they must be priceless.

"We should leave quickly."

Lin Yuan had a stronger resistance to treasures than Xi Lan.

Once he confirmed the treasure was taken, he immediately prepared to leave.

Now that the strong man's attention should still be on that treasure, leaving now should be fine.

"Yes."

"We need to go quickly."

Xi Lan also realized this.

Although he didn't know the identity of the strong man in black robes, he was sure he wasn't a human evolver.

If he were a human evolver, the black disc would have reacted by now.

This disc is a treasure given to every human evolver by human civilization to confirm each other's identity and location in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm.

Since he wasn't a human evolver, if he discovered Lin Yuan and Xi Lan nearby, he likely wouldn't mind gaining some extra income.

"Go, go, go."

Xi Lan tried to calm the spatial fluctuations as much as possible and quickly led Lin Yuan away in another direction.

At that moment, another aura erupted.

In the distance, another figure bathed in a milky white aura appeared, looking somewhat dissatisfied at the figure in black robes.

"Still a step too late."

The milky white figure frowned but did not make a move to snatch it.

The strength of the figure in black robes was not inferior to his, and even if he tried, he wouldn't succeed. It would only vent his anger, which was meaningless.

"Hahahaha, Huny, I'm leaving first. The most valuable treasure in this Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm is probably mine."

The figure in black robes laughed heartily and disappeared again.

Only Huny, who was bathed in a milky white aura with twelve pairs of wings on his back, was left standing there.

As the strongest ninth-rank of the Tianyu Clan in this generation, Huny hadn't gained much from this trip to the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm.

He was still searching for the Milky Way Star Lord, who was hiding like a mouse somewhere.

"Hmm?"

Huny's senses spread in all directions, permeating through layers of space, planning to catch a few ants to vent his anger.

Suddenly, Huny's expression changed slightly, looking in one direction.

It was the direction in which Xi Lan and Lin Yuan were escaping.

"A human aura? The Milky Way Star Lord?"

Huny's spirit was lifted. The twelve pairs of pure white wings on his back gently spread, and his figure disappeared from where he stood.

"Hurry up."

"The strong man coming after us should be 'Huny' from the Tianyu Clan."

Xi Lan's expression was solemn. He didn't recognize the figure in black robes, but the one bathed in a milky white aura that appeared later was very likely from the Tianyu Clan.

And among the many strong individuals of the Tianyu Clan who entered the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm this time, someone with such strength was most likely Huny.

"Huny?"

Lin Yuan also felt the pressure.

He had already heard from the 'Maduo' walker that Huny was searching for him everywhere to avenge the humiliation on the battlefield of the alien races.

However, the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm was vast, and Lin Yuan had no interest in those places of opportunity. Huny trying to lock onto his location was like finding a needle in a haystack.

He didn't expect his luck to be so bad, running into a place of opportunity on the way to the core area.

The celestial phenomenon caused by this place of opportunity drew Huny over.

Even Lin Yuan found this coincidence somewhat unbelievable.

Was he really that unlucky?

"Hahahaha."

"Milky Way Star Lord, do you think you can escape?"

Suddenly, a voice echoed in their ears, and at the same time, a vast, holy aura began approaching rapidly.

"Huny is chasing us?"

Xi Lan's heart trembled. He had hoped Huny hadn't noticed them.

They had hidden in the depths of layers of space all along. As long as Huny didn't actively probe the space layers, he wouldn't discover their lingering aura.

In a few breaths, the aura would dissipate. Even someone as strong as Huny wouldn't know where they had fled.

But unfortunately, Huny didn't do as he had hoped.

"He's catching up?"

Lin Yuan glanced back.

His brows furrowed.

With his current strength, he could withstand a powerhouse of several million space layers, but Huny had opened over thirty million layers.

Not only was he the strongest ninth-rank life form of the Tianyu Clan, but even in the entire cosmic starry sky, there were few who could suppress Huny at the ninth-rank level.

No matter how confident Lin Yuan was, he didn't think he could stop Huny.

At least not within the next fifty years.

"This is trouble."

Lin Yuan's expression was heavy.

Even though this was just a spirit body, death wouldn't be a significant loss to his true self. He could recondense it in a short time.

But the three ninth-rank treasures he carried and all the gains from entering the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm would be wasted.

The most critical thing was the wasted time.

The Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm only opens for a hundred years. To ensure he had enough time to return, Lin Yuan had to reach the core area within fifty years.

Then use the remaining fifty years to return to the outer area before the secret realm closed, to be expelled back to the main universe.

If he wasn't in the outer area when the secret realm closed, he would be left inside, where he would die.

The Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm had already been open for more than twenty years. If Lin Yuan's spirit body died at Huny's hands, his exploration of the 'call sensation' from the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm would fail.

Unless he didn't plan to return from the core area.

But if he obtained a significant treasure from the call sensation in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, staying there would mean waiting until the next opening.

Given the frequency of the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm's opening—every two hundred thousand years—by then, with Lin Yuan's growth rate, even the strongest weapon would be practically useless.

Behind him, Huny was in an extremely good mood.

After searching for so long, he found the Milky Way Star Lord without any effort.

He had been distressed over the treasure being taken by the figure in black robes, but now he had discovered the Milky Way Star Lord.

Milky Way Star Lord!

He was an absolute nightmare for eighth-rank life forms of the Tianyu Clan.

On the battlefield of alien races, the Milky Way Star Lord slaughtered the invincible eighth-ranks of the Tianyu Clan like chickens, causing some eighth-rank lives to break down.

Dying at the hands of ninth-rank powerhouses or due to some 'external force' wasn't unusual.

But dying at the hands of a fellow eighth-rank like the Milky Way Star Lord, especially in such a manner, caused a significant morale drop in the Tianyu Clan.

So for this trip to the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, Huny prioritized killing the Milky Way Star Lord over seeking opportunities.

"Milky Way Star Lord, if you stop now, I'll give you a quick death."

Huny transmitted his voice while closing the distance.

The stronger you are in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, the greater the limitations.

For example, in the main universe, with Huny's strength, he could catch up to Xi Lan and Lin Yuan with just a few teleports.

But in the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, teleportation wasn't possible, and even extreme speeds were limited to 'light speed'.

This meant Huny had to maintain a close distance and use his dominance over space layers to slowly close in.

During this time, they couldn't slip away from his occupied space layers, or he'd have to start over.

But Huny didn't mind because he was confident he could catch up to Xi Lan and Lin Yuan, no matter the time spent.

"Stop?"

Of course, Lin Yuan wouldn't give up. He raised his right hand and unleashed the power of the world and numerous space layers, launching an attack at Huny.

"Milky Way Star Lord, even if I stand still and let you attack..."

Huny grinned, unconcerned.

As a ninth-rank powerhouse who had opened over thirty million space layers, Huny was supremely confident. His life force was vast.

Any attack would be dispersed and weakened by the millions of space layers, leaving little impact when it finally reached him.

However—

When Lin Yuan's attack hit Huny, the latter's expression changed slightly.

"An attack equivalent to at least two million space layers at full strength?" Huny was incredulous. He wasn't hurt.

But the power of Lin Yuan's full-strength strike was astonishing. How long had he been at the ninth rank? Most newly ascended ninth-rank beings were still mastering many space layers. Yet Lin Yuan could unleash such a powerful strike?

Huny was full of disbelief, and his determination to kill Lin Yuan grew stronger.

Such a monstrous talent would cause untold losses to the Tianyu Clan in the future. He had to kill this clone to slow Lin Yuan's growth.

"It's useless."

Lin Yuan realized his full-strength strike had no effect on Huny and immediately understood that he couldn't stop him alone.

"What do we do?" Xi Lan was also anxious.

He was carrying many treasures.

"Should we split up? Huny's target is me." Lin Yuan suggested.

"Milky Way Star Lord, what do you mean?" Xi Lan frowned immediately. "It's just a clone. Do you think I can't bear the loss?"

"Right."

Lin Yuan nodded.

Even if they split up, Xi Lan couldn't escape.

Being chased by a powerhouse like Huny, who had seen and pursued them, their aura was locked, making escape impossible within the secret realm.

"I've contacted many friends. Among the human evolvers who entered the secret realm this time, two can hold Huny."

"But they are far away, and it might take twenty to thirty years to get here."

Xi Lan whispered.

The Tianyu Clan had Huny, a unique ninth-rank who had opened over thirty million layers. Human civilization naturally had ninth-rank powerhouses of the same level.

But they were too far away. In the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, without teleportation, it would take too long to reach here.

Twenty to thirty years?

The clone might be reformed by then.

"Brother Xi Lan, how long can you hold out against Huny's pursuit?" Lin Yuan suddenly asked.

"Hold out?"

Xi Lan was slightly stunned.

In the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm, facing the pursuit of a terrifying powerhouse like Huny, holding out for a few days would be considered impressive at the ninth rank below a million layers.

But Xi Lan was different. He had strong escape methods and was adept at jumping through layers of space. He could hold out longer.

But it wouldn't matter.

No matter how long he held out, he couldn't last twenty to thirty years.

Eventually, he would still die at Huny's hands.

Rather than that, it was better to self-destruct and reform the clone.

"I have an elder who can come to save us in three years." Lin Yuan thought for a moment and made up a reason.

"An elder?"

"Three years?"

Xi Lan's eyes lit up.

He didn't doubt Lin Yuan's words. As the strongest genius in human civilization's history, having a powerful elder was not unusual.

"Three years. If I burn everything in this clone, including my mind and will, I can hold out."

Xi Lan thought for a moment and said seriously.

This was due to the special environment of the Mysterious Emperor Secret Realm and his evolutionary path.

In the outside world, he wouldn't last three seconds, let alone three years.

"Are you sure your elder will come within three years?"

Xi Lan asked nervously again.

Burning the clone was nothing, but burning the mind and will would significantly impact the true self.

Of course, the strength gained would be terrifying, enough for Xi Lan to survive Huny's pursuit for three years.

Xi Lan could hold out but feared Lin Yuan's elder wouldn't arrive in three years.

If that happened, he would have burned his mind and will and lost the treasures carried by the clone—a massive loss.

"Don't worry."

"Three years is more than enough."

Lin Yuan continued, "Take me into your inner world, and I'll contact my elder."

"Okay."

Xi Lan nodded.

Lin Yuan's figure disappeared.

In the inner world, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged in a corner.

"Three years..."

"With the current time flow, the main world will pass no more than two and a half years."

Lin Yuan thought to himself.

The 'three years for the elder to save them' he told Xi Lan wasn't true.

Lin Yuan planned to use these three years for his ninth transmigration.

With the information from the new world imprint coordinates, including the time flow between the two worlds and the duration of the transmigration, he calculated the exact time the main world would pass during his ninth transmigration.

"Brother Xi Lan."

"Hold on..."

Lin Yuan slowly closed his eyes as the Gate of Myriad Realms in his mind began to shine.
