Carefree Path of Dreams Chapter 1080 Passing Through

Fang Yuan felt helpless as he looked at the powder that was the Dao Comprehension Stone.

“I heard that Immortals use dozens of Dao Comprehension Stones with an array each time… Unfortunately, I know nothing about them at all!”

In fact, top nomological laws such as the Nomological Laws of Time and the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws were as powerful as ordinary Great Daos!

Therefore, the consumption of Dao Comprehension Stones was similar to that of an Immortal.

Fang Yuan had yet to obtain such high-level arrays, so he could only do it the dumb way, little by little.

Although it was wasteful, he had already given away fifteen Dao Comprehension Stones earlier, so it was not that big of a deal either.

If Immortals were to see such a scene, their hearts would drip blood, and they would rain curses on this wastrel.

“I can improve my nomological laws by using Dao Comprehension Stone, so what should I choose… the Illusion Realm or time?”

Fang Yuan rubbed his chin, stumped in deep thought.

Both would consume a terrifying amount of Dao Comprehension Stones.

Moreover, his Illusion Realm’s nomological laws were at large success and just shy of complete comprehension.

This was the problem. If fate arrived, he might be able to comprehend it in an instant. However, it might not be effective even if he were to use all of the remaining thirty-four Dao Comprehension Stones.

On the other hand, he was just at basic mastery of the Nomological Laws of Time. He would definitely reap benefits if he was willing to work hard.

“The breakthrough of the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws is at the last step, and it will be very difficult to comprehend it forcibly. I’d better forget about it without a hundred Dao Comprehension Stones. I’ll improve the Nomological Laws of Time first…”

Through this experiment, Fang Yuan realized that the benefit of the Dao Comprehension Stones was in forcing the cultivator to enter a state of enlightenment, which was great for breaking through bottlenecks.

The best method was to cultivate and reach a bottleneck before using them.

However, at this point, he did not care too much. He took one directly into his hand, and before long, they turned into powder piece by piece.

Numerous insights about time appeared in his mind, deepening his understanding of the power of time.

“The most fundamental mystery of the Nomological Laws of Time is in acceleration, but this isn’t all… The sign of large success should be slowing down time! Not only can this mystery be of use in battle, but the most important thing is that it can also extend life!”

The hallmark of large success in the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws was teleportation.

The hallmark of large success in the Nomological Laws of Time was precisely slowing down time!

For now, Fang Yuan did not want to think about time reversal. After he became an Immortal and sublimated the Nomological Laws of Time into the Time Great Dao, maybe he could explore it then.

“Slowing time, as the name suggests, is to make the passage of time become slower. If I use it on myself, it is a method of extending life… If I can make the ratio one hundred times slower, then I will have one hundred times the lifespan of the other cultivators!”

Fang Yuan frowned when his thoughts reached this point. “A normal Primordial Core cultivator has a lifespan of four hundred years! One thousand years at the Apotheosis Realm! If I can increase the ratio by one hundred times, wouldn’t that mean I’ll live for forty thousand years?”

Others lived a day like a year, but he could live a year like a day.

“There are also flaws… Extending lifespan and the like were small matters. The key is the breakthrough of cultivation realms!”

Slowing down time might not necessarily be all good.

For example, if he originally could have broken through to the mid Primordial Core realm from the early stage within a year, after slowing down time, he would need a hundred years instead! This was a devastating number.

Even the recovery of injuries would slow down a hundred times!

Of course, no matter what, the benefits of the ability to slow down time outweighed the disadvantages. Countless cultivators whose lifespans were running out dreamed of obtaining it.

“Whether it is accelerating or slowing down time, both are the control of time flow. As the vast river of time advances forward, who could make it flow backward?”

Fang Yuan opened his eyes.

“Time… slow down!”

He stretched out his right hand. A stone flew up into the sky and ‘fell’ ten times slower.

“The Nomological Laws of Time… large success!”

Gold Ingot’s puppet watched on silently, speechless.

Of course, he knew about the difficulty of the Nomological Laws of Time and the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws. However, this monster in front of him actually cultivated both to large success when he was only at the Primordial Core realm!

It would astonish the entire cultivation world if word got out!

“With the Nomological Laws of Time at large success, I can control the flow of time at will now! It might only be simple acceleration and deceleration, but it’s already very good!”

Fang Yuan nodded. “The rest is to become completely familiar with the power of the Nomological Laws of Time and then complement them with the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws to try and combine them into an ultimate technique!”

He already had plans to fuse the Void Great Dao and Time Great Dao to form the Space-Time Great Dao.

He naturally would not miss the opportunity to start laying the foundation.

The more basic, the simpler it would be to find points to integrate. Making preparations for it now would be a lot more convenient for the true fusion in the future after they sublimated into Great Daos.

“In this regard, I can borrow the power of Dao Comprehension Stones… After all, in the state of enlightenment, not only can I comprehend nomological laws but also trigger inspirations and deductions!”

Looking at the pile of powder in front of him, Fang Yuan smiled bitterly. “I consumed thirty Dao Comprehension Stones just to push the Nomological Laws of Time to large success? The remaining four are definitely not enough!”

…

Nineteenth level of the Thirty-Three-Level Outer Heaven Tower.

“You again!!” The green-clothed puppet did not know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Fang Yuan. “Want to try again?”

“That’s right. Last time I left without receiving the rewards and core disciple status… I regarded it as my loss, so I’m back to challenge again!”

Fang Yuan shrugged and found this loophole that was not a loophole.

To be honest, an ordinary Golden Core cultivator would not want to come again because their life would have been hanging by a thread the first time.

Only a monster-level genius like Fang Yuan could pass through without injury and return to challenge again.

At least, he could gain another fifty-odd Dao Comprehension Stones and other materials, and he would not need to share them with others.

“If you only have such little vision…” The puppet shook its head. “The identity and rewards of a core disciple of Mount Mengyan might be far inferior to when the Holy Land still existed, but it’s still a rare lucky chance for even Immortals. However, you only care about these Dao Comprehension Stones, how short-sighted and superficial…”

“Really?” Fang Yuan smiled strangely. “No matter what, you still have to follow the procedures and need to accept my challenge?”

“That’s right!” The green-clothed puppet laughed. “However, I have to remind you that each person only has three tries for this kind of test! You only have one more chance to obtain Dao Comprehension Stones.”

“No need. I’ll end you this time!” Fang Yuan pulled out his saber and stood proudly.

“You haven’t given up? I am an Immortal!” The green-clothed puppet was slightly surprised.

“Of course not!”

Fang Yuan slashed! An aurora immediately lit up between heaven and earth!

“Mirror·Guard!”

The puppet spread both hands, and the power of strange nomological laws surged around its body, turning into a crystal ball with many planes and reflecting the saber light.

It dared not look down on Fang Yuan after witnessing his abilities and went all out!

“Time!” Fang Yuan muttered softly, seeing the reflection of thousands of shards of saber light coming at him.

An extra greenish-yellow color appeared on top of the white light, and the void surrounding it fluctuated faintly.

“The Illusion Realm’s nomological laws and the Nomological Laws of Time… actually… merged?” The puppet was shocked.

The white light immediately shattered the shards of saber light, and the crystal ball also broke.

One saber breaking thousands of sabers!

“Blade of Universe!”

Fang Yuan said softly, “Your nomological laws might be strange, but at best, they imitate top nomological laws at large success… Last time, they almost collapsed when I used both sets of my nomological laws at the same time, not to mention after I fused them.”

In fact, his seclusion this time did not completely combine the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws and the Nomological Laws of Time. He had only managed to find the most suitable integration point!

Even so, he had used all his gains this time!

Right! All fifty Dao Comprehension Stones that he had obtained from the completion of the eighteen levels last time were now gone. He had used the last four Dao Comprehension Stones to finally find the point of integration!

This was also why he dared to challenge the nineteenth floor. That saber move contained both the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws and the Nomological Laws of Space-Time: Light of Universe!

Poof!

The saber light landed, undoubtedly a killing move.

The puppet was cut open and turned into liquid form.

“Die!” Fang Yuan shouted. The liquid vaporized under the vibrations of space-time.

In the end, the liquid condensed into the puppet again. However, it now looked at Fang Yuan as though it were looking at a Chaos Godfiend. “This attack actually made me lose fifty percent of my immortal body?”

“So? Do you want to admit defeat?” Fang Yuan smiled.

The nomological laws of the Illusion Realm and of time had reached large success and found a point of integration at the same time. This degree of comprehension for such nomological laws made them not inferior to a complete Great Dao, meaning it had surpassed that of Immortals!

His strength was comparable to the Apotheosis realm when he activated the fifth star of the Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique.

The addition of these two factors could even cause his Saber Qi to greatly damage an Immortal. It was even possible to kill Immortals as a mortal!

It was incredible even if the scope extended to the entire world.

The difference between Immortal and mortal was a Heavenly Dao.

It was truly heaven-defying for a mortal to be able to reach this point!

“This is all thanks to my comprehension of nomological laws… I’m still far away from Immortals in terms of magic power and realm!”

In fact, he would not have a chance against an Immortal without this Blade of Universe.

“Yes, I admit defeat!” The Outer Heaven Tower’s artifact spirit sighed. “Go on to the twentieth level. But I want to remind you that the test facing Immortals is a real otherworldly demon!”
