Chapter 540: Completing the System of Nine Star Heavenly Sect

The stunning woman in the purple dress stepped out of the Spatial Cracks, gently raising her hand, causing the world to shift dramatically.

Stars hung in the air as purple ribbons and ethereal mist scattered around her.

With each step she took, it was as if a hundred flowers were blooming, her beauty creating a dreamlike atmosphere. This woman exuded an undeniable confidence, paying no heed to Lack of Shadow as she lifted her right hand and parted her red lips.

“Ah ah ah ah~~”

A faint, melodic song began to hum, the sound growing clearer as it approached, dissipating all the noise of the world.

“——”

Lack of Shadow grew restless, gathering towards the beautiful woman, ready for an attack, but frighteningly, as it drew near, it settled down, quietly standing before her as if listening to a performance by its idol.

“What is this, an enchanting Spirit Law? Could it really work on Lack of Shadow, this mindless being?” Tomorrow exclaimed in surprise.

“Wow, this is indeed a huge problem… This isn’t just a mental enchantment technique; it’s a material control Spirit Law, and it’s at least at the four-tier Spiritual Law level, developed to a very high depth.”

“After reaching the peak of spiritual enchantment, it evolves into material control. Whether it be time, space, causality, or destiny, Spirit Laws can control them, not just limited to the consciousness of life. It’s just that using Spirit Law to manipulate things beyond consciousness is quite challenging.”

“Researching Spirit Law to the four-tier level is not something an ordinary sect can achieve; it should only occur with a great knowledge explosion when the Celestial Empire unites!”

Yun Ye possessed knowledge equal to Tomorrow’s and had practiced it, giving him sharp perceptiveness.

He gasped in astonishment.

From his perspective, this Spirit Law had already equated itself with the Force of Freedom.

According to Yun Ye’s current viewpoint, the Force of Freedom should contain one or two forms of Extreme Spiritual Law, with power and traits that were not weak, falling into the classical category of "scripture-level Spiritual Law."

The Spirit Law of the purple-dressed master was also scripture-level, but it was a modern version from Tomorrow Nation, possessing complete Extreme Spiritual Law characteristics, strongly hinting at Tomorrow Nation’s influence.

This was indeed a massive problem; just one Heavenly Sect had obtained substantial aspects of the Tomorrow Nation system. He could easily imagine what the forces elsewhere among humans looked like. No wonder the Monarchs fell so quickly; these forces had accomplished a technological explosion through the Tomorrow Nation’s system in a short span of time.

Clearly, after acquiring the Extreme Spiritual Law system, the higher levels of the Nine Star Heavenly Sect had completed the system adjustments, integrating Extreme Spiritual Law into their technique systems.

With the presence of Honored Beings, adjusting the ascent law recorded in the Heavenly Path was extremely simple, entirely effortless, and this was the greatest threshold for transformation.

“I thought it wouldn’t matter without decryption skills… If only I had known to prohibit the spread of bloodline knowledge.”

Tomorrow sighed.

“Do you think the aristocratic families refrain from disclosing bloodline factors? As long as there is even the slightest possibility, it should be cut off. Whether it’s bloodline mutations or methods for breaking Spirit Laws, it could unveil information within the bloodlines; that’s inevitable.”

Yun Ye shook his head. Given the circumstances at the time, not disclosing bloodlines would instead lead to disadvantage, making it impossible to catch up with the bloodline talent foundation of the Luo Dynasty.

The most ill-advised thing was the “Knowledge Heritage Plan,” a scheme akin to demons, directly embedding various knowledge into the bloodlines, allowing newborns to be born with knowledge and understanding without needing to learn the vast knowledge system.

And this was the reason behind Tomorrow Nation’s massive outflow of knowledge.

Originally, this ability required a code to unlock; without a code, it was as if it didn’t exist, occupying gene storage space for no reason.

But indeed, having a code also meant there was a lock, and cracking it was incredibly easy.

“Cracking… Truly wanting to break the bloodline code isn’t that simple, is it? We spent hundreds of years to grasp the information expression of spiritual genes, and even high-level cultivators may accelerate the decryption, but it would still take at least tens of thousands of years.”

Tomorrow replied.

Tomorrow Nation had relied on millions of researchers and enhanced the process with tools, yet it still took hundreds of years. In such circumstances, even if high-level cultivators’ computational power skyrocketed, it remained computational power, not intelligence or research capability. Reproducing within tens of thousands of years would still be underestimated; it would take at least one hundred thousand years.

“Everything is possible, especially if the other party possesses the ability to ‘unlock’ or even have authority,” Yun Ye remarked, bringing their discussion to a close.

Although their conversation was a mental one, it happened at a normal pace, lasting about two to three minutes, calm and unhurried.

As for the reason…

The battlefield saw no progress, so the two naturally had time to chat.

Zihuo, the chosen one, seemed determined to finish her song, pouring all her enthusiasm into it. Even though Lack of Shadow was already under control, she still didn’t take the chance to eliminate that inconvenience.

Having emerged from a world filled with death and blood, Zihuo had her own character and principles.

For a Spiritual Law practitioner, the most crucial aspect is the Spiritual Will, or the state of one’s heart.

Yun Ye had never made Spirit Law his main focus, partly because he found the concept of heart state to be deeply mysterious. Despite having a high Spirit Law talent, he still sensed a gap in understanding.

In contrast, Zihuo, as a local supreme genius, had fought through countless hardships to reach the rank of one of the five chosen ones, becoming the Honored Being of the East Star and the heir to the Nine Star Celestial Maiden title. Naturally, her talent was indeed extraordinary, and her grasp of the heart state was exceptional.

She could control the enchanting Spirit Law with her emotions, achieving a remarkable realm where everyone adored her and flowers bloomed at her presence.

If subtlety is considered the Fourth Stage of Spiritual Law, then the Sacred Realm is the Fourth Stage of Spirit Law, with difficulty only increasing.

Yun Ye had always struggled to reach the corresponding heights in Spirit Law and Physical Law, but he managed to infuse subtlety into both, making them equal. However, Spirit Law could embody both subtlety and sacredness simultaneously, truly surpassing Spiritual Law in upper limits.

Overall, the upper limit of Spirit Law was exceptionally high; at the same level, it could almost overpower Spiritual Law, while Physical Law could barely keep up but still fell short.

The Spiritual Law practitioners Yun Ye encountered before could be described as average, lacking grasp of the essence of Spirit Law.

Zihuo’s Spirit Law, however, was genuine Spirit Law. Even Lack of Shadow, with its ability to evolve, had no means of resistance and was solidly controlled for a full three minutes. It was indeed evolving, but under manipulation, its evolution was nearly halted.

At that moment, Yun Ye finally recognized Lack of Shadow’s true weakness.

As a disaster beast, Lack of Shadow’s basic unit could be termed the Calamity virus, and countless Calamity viruses combined constituted Lack of Shadow’s true body.

In this form, Lack of Shadow needed to kill and evolve, thus disconnecting physical connections, relying only on vague spiritual links.

So, once Lack of Shadow accumulated, its power would increase significantly; however, when dispersed, its strength would greatly weaken.

This seemed normal; logically, it made sense.

Yet, this trait of low-level life forms contrasted sharply with the three heavens realm practitioners, whose bodies had already transformed into self-sustaining three heavens. Even with just one cell, they could still exert full power; those cells and bodies were merely expressions in the material world, and cutting them into pieces wouldn’t impact the source of a practitioner’s strength.

But Lack of Shadow was different; separating its form genuinely weakened its strength, marking its fatal weakness. Rapid reproduction required quantity; without sufficient numbers, even Lack of Shadow couldn’t quickly adapt or evolve perfect resistance.

Just from this battle, the Nine Star Heavenly Sect grasped the crux of the issue.
