Creating Heavenly Laws-Chapter 489

Xia Qin the Strongest one possessed an extremely swift thought process. Immediately, he caught the main point of the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path text—rule models.

Within the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path, there were a large number of rule models that differed from those recorded by human civilization. One must understand that establishing and refining a single rule model requires who-knows-how-much painstaking effort from many scholar-level evolvers. Furthermore, not every rule model can simply be created at will.

Every rule model humanity has collected came from the sacrifices of generations of evolvers. But now?

Xia Qin spotted a great number of entirely new rule models in the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path text. New rule models? Many of them?

He felt uneasy and immediately delved deeper into the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path, studying every included rule model. The other eight Strongest ones did likewise, devoting most of their attention to the rule models.

“This is the rule model for Space Infinity Rule? Our human civilization only has a few evolvers who’ve mastered that kind of pillar-level fusion rule, and now there’s already a rule model for it?”

“Then there’s this Destruction Lightning rule model—merging Grand Destruction Rule with Lightning Rule? Grand Destruction Rule itself is already a pillar-level fusion rule, and it’s further fused with Lightning? Even that has a rule model?”

“A Time Shadow rule model? The model seems valid, but how did the Milky Way Star Lord come up with such a rule model?”

As they read on, the nine Strongest ones of human civilization were soon overwhelmed by shock. To establish and refine a rule model in the first place, one must have pushed one’s understanding of that rule to its limit. Otherwise, never mind creating the model—one wouldn’t be able to fully grasp the rule in question.

Additionally, any rule model to be deemed “complete” must possess “universality.” A newly minted scholar-level evolver who has just mastered the Time Rule can, by putting in huge effort, indeed create a so-called complete Time Rule model. But that model might be suitable only for this particular evolver. Others wouldn’t gain any useful insights from it.

Every rule is boundless. Even something as basic as Metal Rule can manifest differently for different evolvers, each perceiving a different facet of “metal.” Because a rule model is a conceptual framework representing that rule, the more facets it encompasses, the greater its universal applicability. But that’s much easier said than done.

However, as the nine Strongest ones carefully examined each rule model in the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path, they found that every model had universality beyond belief—enough for full dissemination among all evolvers in human civilization.

How is that possible?

Just the rule models these Strongest ones had seen corresponded to thousands of distinct rules. The Milky Way Star Lord would have had to push his comprehension of each of those rules to the limit in order to craft those models. And these were not just ordinary rules; at minimum they were pillar-level fusion rules—meaning he had achieved the highest mastery in them?

The nine Strongest ones were momentarily dazed. They themselves hadn’t reached that level of rule comprehension.

“Rule models for time-space fusion rules.”

That was when Xia Qin felt a jolt. He had spotted the core content of the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path: the rule models corresponding to time-space fusion.

In any eleventh-rank evolution path—even the nine supreme paths—time-space fusion rules are the most crucial. One can choose whether or not to master most pillar-level fusion rules. For instance, when moving from the tenth to the eleventh rank, one only needs to push one pillar-level fusion rule to the second level. There’s no requirement for which rule specifically.

But time-space fusion rules? If you want to advance at the eleventh rank, you must delve into time-space fusion. Time and space are the two cornerstones of all rules, and time-space fusion is even more so. Put plainly, time-space fusion is the “mandatory option” for every evolver who reaches the eleventh rank.

“A rule model from the first to the fifth level of time-space fusion?”

“Thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-three models?”

“These rule models...”

It took the nine Strongest ones a full hour to finish reading all thirty thousand or so time-space fusion rule models. It wasn’t that they couldn’t understand them—anyone who steps into the twelfth rank must have reached the sixth level of time-space comprehension.

The real reason was that judging whether a rule model is qualified for widespread release requires not only understanding that rule’s essence, but also seeing how it pertains to other facets. Plus, time-space fusion is of critical importance, so the Strongest ones had to check it thoroughly.

“These time-space fusion rule models possess high universality and meet the standard for broad dissemination.”

After a long while, Gu Li the Strongest one finally spoke, his tone revealing a trace of disbelief. Although they had been hopeful, they had also been uneasy before examining the models. Now that they saw them were indeed suitable for widespread adoption, they still found it hard to believe.

If these time-space fusion rule models had come from Xuanyuan the Strongest one, the other eight could have just about accepted it, because Xuanyuan stands at the pinnacle of human civilization’s Strongest ones, his power close to the peak of Path-Clearing. But Lin Yuan?

He’s just a youngster who broke through to the eleventh rank not that long ago, right?

“The Milky Way Star Lord’s rule comprehension must have already surpassed ours,” the Void God said quietly after a lengthy pause.

None of the nine Strongest ones had managed to create such comprehensive models. They had long tried but never perfected a time-space fusion rule model. Yet the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path not only presented a thorough version, but covered levels one through five.

“Surpassed us?” Xia Qin and several other Strongest ones exchanged glances, looking stunned. They had long recognized the Milky Way Star Lord’s potential, believing Lin Yuan to be the greatest evolving genius in human civilization’s history—far beyond what they themselves had been prior to reaching the twelfth rank.

If Lin Yuan could make that final leap and step into the twelfth rank, he might quickly become second only to Xuanyuan among the civilization’s top Strongest ones. Or perhaps, going even further, he might surpass Xuanyuan entirely to become the civilization’s mightiest champion.

But that all hinged on Lin Yuan crossing over to the twelfth rank. Now, however, he was still at the eleventh rank, yet his rule comprehension already overshadowed that of the Strongest ones. None of them had anticipated this at all.

Previously, when Lin Yuan’s mental will reached a twelfth-rank level, these nine Strongest ones assumed that maybe there was a “shortcut” or special event responsible. And even then, they thought Lin Yuan’s mental will only equaled, rather than surpassed, their own. But now?

These numerous rule models—especially the time-space fusion models—undeniably showcased Lin Yuan’s terrifying mastery of rules. And there is no easy trick for achieving that; you either comprehend it yourself or you don’t.

“Honored nine Strongest ones, please finalize your judgment for the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path,” the Goddess of Wisdom’s voice rang out while those nine were in deep thought.

“Finalize our judgment for the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path...” Xia Qin and the others composed themselves, pondering seriously.

There was no question: the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path’s worth was revolutionary and essentially immeasurable. And that was without even mentioning the crucial time-space fusion rule models.

The thousands of other pillar-level fusion rule models alone would bring unprecedented influence upon human civilization. Note that these rule models would affect not only martial evolvers but also all other evolvers, even if the effect would be smaller for non-martial paths.

It was foreseeable that countless evolvers in the years to come would be shaped by the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path. Even if they didn’t follow the martial path, they would surely purchase it to study.

The martial path’s influence would outstrip that of the nine supreme paths combined—after all, only about one-tenth of humanity’s evolvers use the supreme paths, though that share grows among higher-rank evolvers (at the eighth, ninth, tenth ranks, around four or five out of ten take a supreme path).

Even so, it still falls short of the sweeping coverage of the martial path. The wealth of rule models in the Eleventh-Rank text would be valuable to anyone who practices evolution.

“Xuanyuan, how should we judge it?”

After lengthy consideration, Xia Qin looked toward Xuanyuan, and so did the other seven. The Eleventh-Rank Martial Path’s importance was so colossal that none dared to deliver a rash verdict.

“My judgment is...” Xuanyuan’s expression was grave.

“Ten trillion contribution points.”

At those words, the other eight showed varied reactions. Most of them had pegged it at five or six trillion in their minds. But Xuanyuan jumped straight to ten trillion?

“Ten trillion contribution points?”

“You have that high an opinion of the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path?” Xia Qin asked in surprise. He himself had not arrived at such a staggering number. Ten trillion contribution points? Since the start of the Star Sea Era, humankind had never once disbursed such an amount.

“Elevating the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path is also elevating the Milky Way Star Lord,” Xuanyuan replied, then glanced at the others.

“If you all have no objection, let’s finalize that figure.”

“No problem.”

“It’s worth that much.”

“Indeed.”

Xia Qin and the others nodded without further protest.

“Nine Strongest ones, you have determined that the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path merits ten trillion contribution points. Shall I convert that into a corresponding rank value for potential upgrading?” the Goddess of Wisdom continued.

Rank value is used by the three Goddesses to assign each evolution path a position in the ranking based on potential, universality, and other factors. The higher the rank value, the higher the path’s standing in the listings. Those values are internal to the three Goddesses and are known only by the nine Strongest ones; other evolvers aren’t even aware such data exists.

“Rank value...”

Xuanyuan paused briefly.

“Let’s follow the usual rules.”

He understood why the Goddess of Wisdom specifically brought it up: if the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path is truly worth ten trillion contribution points, then its final rank value might exceed that of some of the supreme evolution paths. The nine supreme paths also each had a rank value, somewhere between eight trillion and twelve trillion.

On the Milky Way’s main star, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged. Having submitted the Eleventh-Rank text, he had already waited much longer than for the previous ten uploads, but he was not surprised. After all, the content was enormous. In particular, the rule models would require even the Strongest ones time to confirm.

“Esteemed Tenth-Level Citizen, Scholar Lin Yuan, the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path you uploaded has passed its final evaluation.”

Suddenly, the solemn, cool voice of the Goddess of Wisdom sounded.

“It passed evaluation?” Lin Yuan felt intrigued. He had guessed the evaluation wouldn’t just be carried out by the three Goddesses alone; surely some Strongest ones were involved. He was curious what they thought.

“The final valuation for the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path is ten trillion contribution points,” the Goddess of Wisdom announced.

“Ten trillion contribution points.” Lin Yuan exhaled softly. Even recently, when he single-handedly defeated the colossal battlefield and gained huge swaths of territory for human civilization—putting the entire myriad races on notice—he had only obtained over two hundred billion. Yet now, the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path alone was worth ten trillion?

“It’s those rule models,” Lin Yuan mused. The Martial Path itself only benefits martial evolvers, but the rule models can be used by any evolver, having near-universal applicability. That caused the value of the Eleventh-Rank text to skyrocket.

Blasting through the colossal battlefield and winning new territory does boost human civilization’s foundations to a degree. But against the total volume of territory, that expansion is ultimately limited. Whereas the Eleventh-Rank Martial Path is not just about increasing the civilization’s foundation—it raises the overall standard by several levels at once.

“So many contribution points... According to the human civilization’s exchange rate, one twelve-star rare treasure equals one hundred million contribution points. Ten trillion can get me a hundred thousand twelve-star treasures?”

Lin Yuan did the math inwardly. A hundred thousand twelve-star treasures? Possibly the total stock of all such treasures in human civilization doesn’t even come close to that.

“Right, how about the ranking of the Martial Path itself?” Lin Yuan wondered.
