Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 474 - 290 Supreme Rule_2

"So, to break through to the Seventh Order smoothly, one must first comprehend a rule,"

"No wonder there are so many Peak Sixth Order Creatures in the forbidden area, yet so few Seventh Order Strongmen," Ye Feng mused, a dawning realization crossing his face as he read the annotations above.

However, he thought about his system, which seemed to allow him to force a breakthrough without comprehending any rules. The only reason he had been suppressed by the Heaven and Earth was that he had been forced down in the end.

"Without this suppression, I should be able to force a breakthrough to the Seventh Order. Yet, I might become the only Seventh Order Strongman without the power of Rule Power," Ye Feng said with a self-deprecating shake of his head.

If he didn’t possess Rule Power and only enhanced his body, then breaking through to the Seventh Order wouldn’t be very meaningful.

His gaze returned to the stele.

Clearly, Rule Origin Comprehension was the essential choice.

If he could comprehend a rule here, then after he left, he should be able to break through to the Seventh Order successfully.

At the same time, his gaze swept over the Seventh Order Strongmen seated in meditation in the square.

These people must have exchanged Rule Origin Comprehension and then began their cultivation here.

Seeing this, Ye Feng didn’t hesitate and decided to choose and exchange for a Rule Origin Comprehension right away.

He opened the basic rules and then saw Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder—seven options.

"Should I choose the Wood Rules?" Ye Feng had a hard time deciding because it was just his conjecture; he wasn’t sure if he was truly suited for the Wood Rules.

In fact, he was more inclined to comprehend the Thunder Rules.

It was at this moment that a line of text appeared on the stele in front of him.

"Assessee has not comprehended any rules. Would you like to undergo rule matching?"

Seeing this, Ye Feng couldn’t help but remark, "This is quite user-friendly."

He immediately chose yes.

It made sense, after all. Since this place was for assessment, they would naturally want to choose the most suitable inheritor.

Right after making the choice, Ye Feng felt a surge of energy emanating from the stele.

This energy was somewhat like spiritual power, but not entirely. As it swept over him, Ye Feng felt as if he had nowhere to hide.

But this sensation was fleeting, and soon, a new line of text emerged on the stele in front of him.

"After assessment, Ye Feng is most compatible with one of the five Supreme Rules, ’Life Rule’."

Seeing this line of text on the stele, Ye Feng stood there, slightly startled.

He wasn’t clear on what Supreme Rule implied, but without a doubt, it should be beyond a Higher Rule.

"Hey, hey, hey, how about giving me more information? What does a Supreme Rule imply?"

"And your exchange list doesn’t have an option for Supreme Rule Origin Comprehension either!" Ye Feng couldn’t help but complain.

At that moment, a piece of information directly passed through the stele into his mind.

Then, Ye Feng immediately understood some of the knowledge about the rules.

"So, at the beginning, a general Seventh Order Strongman can only comprehend basic rules. Once they elevate a basic rule to a certain degree and incorporate their own comprehension, they might advance it to an Intermediate Rule," Ye Feng murmured to himself.

In simpler terms, one had to comprehend a variation within the basic rules and integrate it, thus transforming it into an Intermediate Rule.

For example, the sharpness of the Gold Element, the healing of the Wood Element, the Cold Ice Rule of the Water Element, the Lava Rule of the Fire Element, and the gravity for Earth—these were all Intermediate Rules.

As for Higher Rules, it required the fusion of two complementary Intermediate Rules.

For instance, ’Wind Aids Fire’. Therefore, the Flame Rule and the Hurricane Rule, which are Intermediate Rules, could merge to form the Higher Rule, the Burning Heaven Rule.

When it comes to the Supreme Rule, it cannot just appear through fusion; the ability to comprehend one of the five Supreme Rules is purely a matter of Talent.

These five Supreme Rules are: Time, Space, Life, Death, and Causality.

After understanding all this information, Ye Feng was exhilarated.

If he could master any one of the Supreme Rules, he would have a tremendous advantage among his peers, even the ability to combat those beyond his level.

Following the transmission of information from the stele, the content on it changed once again.

A new line of text was added to the list.

Supreme Rule: 1000 points for one comprehension.

When Ye Feng saw this line of text, his recently excited mood plummeted as if it had fallen into an abyss.

"Come on! Isn’t that excessively expensive? You might as well not have shown it to me," Ye Feng grumbled.

But at that moment, another line of text appeared on the stele.

"First-class Seed Authority, purchasing Rule Comprehension, can enjoy a 90% discount."

Seeing this line of text, Ye Feng’s emotions soared like a roller coaster once again.

With a 90% discount, that meant he only had to spend 100 points to exchange for a comprehension.

Although it was still expensive, it was within the range Ye Feng could afford.

He immediately chose to exchange for a Supreme Rule Comprehension.

His points, which were initially at 310, were directly reduced to 210.

After the points were deducted, Ye Feng received a message that simply by entering a meditative state on this platform, he would naturally be able to undergo Life Rule Comprehension.
