The Black Book: Seven Deadly Sins
Chapter 461: Legendary Law
CHAPTER 461: CHAPTER 461: LEGENDARY LAW
"Actually, magical techniques like the [Holy Grail] that are blessed by the Heavenly Dao Origin are not uncommon..."
After contemplating for a long time, Ye Wan Ning slowly began to speak.
"However, most of them are world wills foreseeing their own destruction, thus seeking external means for self-rescue."
"Therefore, the so-called [Holy Grail] that can fulfill all wishes might just be a higher version of the [Wish Spell], but since the object of the wish is the world will, the upper limit would be very high..."
"However, the [Holy Grail] is like a carrot hanging in front of a donkey, with the real purpose being to select powerful [Heroic Spirits] to help it overcome some Armageddon-level catastrophe."
Seeing Zhu Haomiao’s thoughtful expression, Ye Wan Ning chuckled lightly and added a sentence.
"Of course, all of the above is just my personal guess. After all, I’m not directly involved, so it’s just for reference."
Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao shook his head, sincerely looking at Ye Wan Ning.
"No, it’s a meaningful conjecture. Thank you, senior sister."
This guy is actually quite reliable when he’s not acting strange...
As if hearing Zhu Haomiao’s inner muttering, the originally smug Ye Wan Ning’s expression changed, glaring at him angrily.
"Are you buzzing about me in your heart?"
"No, why would I!"
But having known each other for so long, Zhu Haomiao was already familiar with her tricks, calmly and candidly looking into her eyes.
After a few seconds of staring, Ye Wan Ning hesitantly looked away, then suddenly let out a sharp screech.
"Ahhhhh! My sweet and sour ribs! That big plate of sweet and sour ribs?!"
"Squeak!"
The little girl beside them trembled all over, hurriedly stuffed the last piece of rib into her mouth, her cheeks bulging and moving.
"Dead mouse! Spit it out!"
"Xuxu already chewed it~ Mleh mleh mleh~"
...
Watching the big and the small bickering, Zhu Haomiao propped his chin, his thoughts drifting far away into the clouds.
Armageddon-level catastrophe, huh?
What could it be?
The original worldview of the small yellow oil (a slang term, possibly for a type of story or game) doesn’t seem to have such a grand narrative, but the derivative works have similar settings.
Something like the [Beast of Original Sin]?
Licking his lips, a deep green light flashed in Zhu Haomiao’s pupils, unable to resist salivating.
Just hearing it sounds delicious...
After pondering for a long time, Zhu Haomiao suddenly remembered something and looked at Li Cang, who was eating elegantly beside him.
"Brother Li..."
"??!"
"Uh, Cangcang, there’s something I want to ask you."
Realizing he had misspoken, Zhu Haomiao quickly corrected himself. Luckily, Li Cang didn’t mind, calmly putting down his chopsticks.
"Go ahead."
"Do you know about the high-rank power of Basic Force?"
"Of course, [Spiritual Rhinoceros], [Raging Wave], [Star Fall], [Mountain Shattering], [Conquer]..."
"Anyone who follows the path of Chinese Martial Arts needs to master at least one of these, and someone with our kind of [God’s Destiny] dominance can generally obtain two to three Rune Seeds."
"Do you know that these high-rank powers can further evolve into stronger Extraordinary Authority?"
Hearing this, Li Cang’s previously indifferent expression slightly changed, looking at Zhu Haomiao with surprise.
"You can’t be in the Third Layer Heaven... No, that’s impossible. This transformation can only be initiated at the Middle Heavenly Position, those with slightly less aptitude [God’s Destiny] have to reach the Fifth or even Sixth Layer Heaven to perfect their cultivation, the strength of the Initial Heavenly Position’s laws isn’t enough to support it..."
Listening to Li Cang’s muttered words, Zhu Haomiao felt a movement in his heart, and the image of the [Creation Jade Disk] flashed in his mind.
Is it that which completed the laws, allowing a power that should have emerged at the Middle Heavenly Position to appear early in the Third Layer Heaven?
Am I holding level 50 or 60 equipment, playing a level 30 dungeon?
Damn it!
This guy is cheating again, not even pretending anymore!
Inwardly clenching his fist, he felt a sense of injustice for those who worked hard in cultivation, but Zhu Haomiao quickly reacted, letting out a long sigh of resignation.
Oh well, there are so many cheats on me, a couple more won’t make a difference!
Sigh... you cheats are really giving me a hard time!
While Zhu Haomiao sighed and shook his head, he heard Li Cang’s questioning by his ear.
"Who told you this knowledge? This kind of secret is usually forbidden from being revealed."
"Huh? What’s there to hide?"
Zhu Haomiao blinked in confusion, but seeing Li Cang’s serious gaze, he quickly confessed.
"No one told me, I just accidentally acquired an advanced Law Authority myself."
"You? In the Third Layer Heaven? Legendary Law Power?!"
Li Cang’s pupils slightly contracted, staring at Zhu Haomiao in a daze, only returning to his senses after a while.
"Which Legendary Power did you obtain?"
"Legendary Power?"
"It’s your advanced Basic Strength Principle."
"Oh, Gale..."
Whoosh~
Before he could finish the word, the Li Cang in front of him suddenly disappeared from his spot, and Zhu Haomiao felt a sharp pain at the back of his head, his body instinctively reacting before his brain could catch up.
Whoosh~
The pale hand knife tore through the afterimage, producing a crisp whistling sound in the air.
Standing behind an empty chair, Li Cang slowly withdrew his hand knife, looking with a complex expression at the black-clad teenager quietly standing beside him.
"Steps of Yin and Yang, Absolute Shadow without a trace... you actually mastered Legendary Power in the Third Layer Heaven..."
On the other side, startled by the commotion at the dining table, Ye Wan Ning and Diao Chan, who were pinching each other’s cheeks, stared blankly at the two, their eyes wide open in confusion like big Estee Lauder eyes.
We’re just having a meal, is there a need to use real strength?
"Zhangzhang and Shuishui are fighting over food..."
"Boo-hoo!"
"Did Xuxu eat too much?"
"Xuxu go pick outside..."
The tearful little girl rolled up her sleeves, about to rush outside, but was held by the top of her head by Zhu Haomiao, whose head was full of black lines.
"Only you would fight over food! Go eat your meal!"
Giving her a playful slap on her little butt, Zhu Haomiao helplessly rolled his eyes with a laugh.
"What on earth are you all doing?"
Beside him, Ye Wan Ning caught on and looked at the two with curiosity.
Exchanging a glance, Li Cang wearily sat back in his seat, letting out a long sigh.
"He mastered Legendary Power in the Third Layer Heaven."
"Huh?!!"
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Ye Wan Ning looked the black-clad teenager up and down in shock, only sighing after a long time.
"Though it’s absurd, thinking about it being you somehow makes it acceptable..."
Hearing this, Li Cang beside him felt a slight lift in the sense of discouragement.
That’s right...
This is the world’s first monster to ascend at the [Abyss] energy level!
It’s no shame to lose to him!
It’s just... knowing he’d catch up eventually...
But not expecting he’d chase at such terrifying speed...
Soon, a sense of urgency and defiance arose in Li Cang’s heart, making her subconsciously sneak a glance at the black-clad teenager beside her.
At this rate, I’m afraid I really won’t stand a chance against this guy!
