Shattered Void, the space earlier was filled with the heavenheart mandate ‘Shattered Void.’ However, he still couldn’t sense clearly what source origins that heavenheart mandate was a fusion of.
The scene before him was the same as before, there wasn’t much change. Now in the air, there was another stone monument with two words inscribed on it. However, the words were no longer ‘Shattered Void.’
‘Void Transposition.’
Clearly, this was another type of heavenheart mandate. It was just that he wasn’t able to tell what the true meaning of ‘Void Transposition’ was.
At this moment, a different figure appeared from the stone monument, it was also a monument spirit. The spirit glanced at Qin Wentian as a look of disdain appeared on its expression, as though it was truly capable of thought. It seemed to be filled with contempt for Qin Wentian’s cultivation base.
Coming to the World of Ten Thousand Laws at the Empyrean Realm was simply asking to be abused. You want to come here to experience what are heavenheart mandates? Prepare to feel despair then.
Qin Wentian prepared his defense again. With his earlier experience, his defense now was even stronger. He wanted to truly fight against the power of a heavenheart mandate and sense the disparity between his current level of strength in comparison.
However, just as he was prepared, his opponent suddenly vanished, disappearing completely. Qin Wentian could sense no trace of the monument spirit at all.
The space was incomparably silent but Qin Wentian didn’t dare to relax his vigilance. His immortal sense covered the surroundings and as long as there was a fluctuation, he would be able to sense it.
However, there was nothing at all. This space was completely silent. Did the monument spirit return back into the stone monument because of the contempt it felt for him?
He still maintained his defense and was prepared to act at anytime. He patiently waited but even after a long time, nothing happened. This made Qin Wentian smile bitterly. The energy he was circulating vanished as his defense slackened. He didn’t really understand the current situation.
But at this very moment when he relaxed his vigilance, Qin Wentian suddenly felt an intense sense of crisis in his heart. This wasn’t something his immortal sense warned him about, this sense of danger was purely from his instincts.
“BOOM!” His powerful defense sprang up again but it was already too late. A fist appeared from the void, ruthlessly smashing into his body with no warning. This attack was launched directly from the void. After that, the spirit appeared again and Qin Wentian once again felt that sensation of true death as his body crumbled apart. Before he fainted, he was thinking how could he ever relax his vigilance at any moment in the midst of a battle? That was simply courting death, he had learned an extremely valuable lesson.
“Hu…” When Qin Wentian regained his consciousness again, things were like before, he was covered in cold sweat. A bitter smile curled his lips as he experienced death again. How many times would he experience death in this World of Ten Thousand Laws? Each and every time was enough to cause the minds of those not strong enough in will to crumble apart. No one would want to or was able to experience this over and over again.
“Void Transposition, moving freely in the void.” Qin Wentian seemed to understand the meaning of the two words now. It was another type of heavenheart mandate and was simply too terrifying. This already wasn’t traveling through the void using spatial energy, or immortal sense would be able to track it. This Void Transposition heaven mandate was completely untraceable, the perfect tool for an assassin. It would definitely kill someone unprepared at the first hit.
If one managed to comprehend this particular heavenheart mandate, he basically wouldn’t be afraid even if his opponents had more people than him. As long as he was slightly stronger compared to the rest, even if he had to face against a group of experts alone, he could still kill them one by one unless one of them had a heavenheart mandate that specifically countered Void Transposition.
Before this, Qin Wentian had listened to the lectures given by the heavenly deities and he naturally understood this logic. Don’t assume that Shattered Void and Void Transposition were extremely powerful and seemed unbreakable, there exists countless even more powerful heavenheart mandates out there. As long as you dare to imagine it, it would definitely exist, and there are even some people with heaven-defying comprehension who trod on paths of their own, something the ancients had never explored before, as they created even more immensely powerful heavenheart mandates.
“What is next?” Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared in the sky. Although the sensation of death filled one’s heart with despair, the anticipation in his heart was even more intense when he thought about contending against the power of those heavenheart mandates. This was something he would comprehend in the future, he wanted to see stronger heavenheart mandates and draw upon them for inspiration to create his own.
‘Heaven Burial.’
Qin Wentian glanced up, a new stone monument was there and the two words inscribed upon it were ‘Heaven Burial.’ How terrifying is this? However, what would be the power of this particular heavenheart mandate? How would it be displayed?
Very swiftly, Qin Wentian understood. When the monument spirit manifested, he glanced at Qin Wentian and the disdain in this spirit’s eyes was the same as the others before. He inclined his head and grabbed out towards the air. In an instant, a supreme might crushed down from the sky. Qin Wentian set up his defenses but in this instant, they all seemed to be useless because the other party wasn’t aiming at breaking through his defense. With a wave of his hand, the weight of the sky bore down upon him, Heaven Burial.
Once again, before Qin Wentian could do anything, the sensation of death flooded his entire being. Although he ‘revived’ again, he had died for a three times. His body was completely covered by his sweat.
Heaven Burial, that supreme crushing might could directly bury the world. This kind of heavenheart mandate was tyrannical to the extreme, there was simply no way to counter it. During combat, for world overlords who gained comprehension of this heavenheart mandate, they just needed to wave their hands and countless people would be buried as endless stretches of space would be crushed, annihilating billions of lives. This was the threat of a supreme existence, they could peer down with disdain at mortals beneath them because with just a single thought, they could shift terrains and annihilate the multitude of lives.
After dying consecutively for three times, Qin Wentian really wanted to take a break to sooth the stifling tension in his heart. However, once he entered the World of Ten Thousand Laws, it seemed that the situation was no longer up to his control. This secret realm was a pure cultivation ground created by the Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity when he was alive. Countless experts came here to temper themselves and for those who didn’t have enough strength, they would understand what the meaning of true despair is.
It was like what Qin Wentian was feeling now. He didn’t have time to take a break as another monument spirit appeared right after the moment he revived.
The heavenheart mandate now was , ‘Sky Prison.’
With a single glance at him, Qin Wentian was instantly trapped inside a prison with no sky or night. After that, the walls of the prison folded in and destroyed him.
Again and again, Qin Wentian experienced the power of these heavenheart mandates in the World of Ten Thousand Laws. The heavenheart mandates here were wide-ranging and profound, there were simply too many of them and the name of World of Ten Thousand Laws was truly apt.
Naturally, Qin Wentian felt that it was impossible for him to experience them all. It was too painful, his heart and mind were filled with agony as he experienced death again and again, his will being obliterated. No matter how strong someone was, they would eventually go mad. If one didn’t personally experience this, they would never understand. Although Qin Wentian had endless anticipation and yearning in his heart, he felt his will crumbling apart. If it wasn’t for his intense desire, he would long have given up.
However, he encountered many wondrous heavenheart mandates through this process. There were also some that seemed very familiar to the source origins he used, and he gained some inspiration when he saw them.
For example, there was a heavenheart mandate named, ‘Sun Blaze.’
Clearly, this heavenheart mandate had to do with the laws energy of light and fire. Sun Blaze, the blazing fire energies could also be displayed as a source of light. Qin Wentian guessed that this heavenheart mandate was formed from the completed fusion of source origins of fire and light.
In addition, he was familiar with the effects of this heavenheart mandate. Take his light astral soul for example, it was an extremely powerful one and he used it to manifest radiance, shining on his opponents to disintegrate his enemies from the intense heat and glare. This heavenheart mandate was similar but even more terrifying, it was truly a brand new energy. When the light from this heavenheart mandate shone on him, his body began to break down into millions of millions of pores that were penetrated through by each ray of light.
The light seemed endless, he only knew that he was disintegrating and couldn’t do anything to prevent it. From this, one could tell how powerful Qin Wentian’s source origins of the light laws are. He was able to achieve a similar effect to Sun Blaze although this heavenheart mandate was much more powerful.
Naturally, this type of death was better. He directly died, there wasn’t any time to feel pain at all. Other than this, he also experienced an extremely cruel heavenheart mandate, parts of his body slowly rotted away, decaying bit by bit. He only died after a long time. He definitely didn’t want to experience such a death again.
After repeated experiences, Qin Wentian let out a low roar. He felt that he was soon unable to endure. It’s just that in the World of Ten Thousand Laws, he didn’t have a choice, he couldn’t exit it voluntarily. Would he be forced to continue?
“Senior.” Qin Wentian’s consciousness directly communicated with the Skybreak Heavenly Deity.
“Can you still hold on?” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity asked.
“I cannot endure any longer.” Qin Wentian only sought help from the Skybreak Heavenly Deity when it was absolutely essential. He was at his absolute limits and the one who could help him now, was only the Skybreak Heavenly Deity.
“Alright.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity acknowledged. In truth, Qin Wentian being able to persevere so long up until now, experiencing so many heavenheart mandates and dying again and again, already made him feel somewhat taken aback.
A strange feeling appeared in his heart, Qin Wentian felt his consciousness being pulled out of this dimension.
“Hu…” He drew in a deep breath, Qin Wentian felt a sensation of floating. He helplessly laid on the ground, completely devoid of strength. When he inclined his head, he didn’t see another stone monument.
“What’s going on?” Qin Wentian was shocked. He turned his gaze further ahead and discovered the entrance of the World of Ten Thousand Laws. He was lying on the ground right before the entrance. The entrance shone with resplendent runic light, akin to a super strong formation. A few moments later, the light from the entrance dimmed and lost its luster.
“Where you are lying at, is precisely the entrance to the World of Ten Thousand Laws. You have already entered earlier, and have just exited now.” The Skybreak Deity spoke.
“I’ve already entered?” Qin Wentian didn’t understand.
“Your consciousness went in but you didn’t know about it. The World of Ten Thousand Laws exists in the void. How did you feel after you experienced the power of heavenheart mandates?” The projection of the Skybreak Heavenly Deity appeared.
“Too terrifying, I’m even a little afraid to enter the World of Ten Thousand Laws again. However, after experiencing all that in addition to the dao lectures given by all the seniors, my comprehension towards heavenheart mandates has deepened by a lot. I think that I finally know what truly the power from heavenheart mandates is.”
“Mhm, only like this would you be able to gain insights. If you have no idea, how would you be able to comprehend?” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity nodded his head. “In the future if you wish to experience heavenheart mandates more, you can enter the World of Ten Thousand Laws any time.”
A strange look appeared on Qin Wentian’s face after he heard that. He felt a little frightened to enter it again. Although he knew that everything was false, it was simply too painful!
