The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 975 - 455: The Esoteric Meaning of the Third Law (2)

Chapter 975: Chapter 455: The Esoteric Meaning of the Third Law (2)

He murmured softly.

As long as the Supreme Laws of Candle Light and Ghostly Glowing are forcibly enacted, the rules of the Third Law will take shape.

The premise is that you must endure it, or else you’ll explode and die.

"Is this the Third Law?"

Ying Changsheng raised his eyes, glanced at him, and said softly, "Truly terrifying."

Here we speak of the Third Law.

Of course, it’s also about Gu Jianlin.

Throughout history, there have been those who could challenge Holy Land Level at a Superdimensional Level, though they are rare.

Like Taiqing and Taihua, Silver and Gold, Qing and Chi.

Tracing back to ancient times, there were emperors who could do this.

The problem is, Ji Ye is a Holy Land-level Pseudo Ancestor.

Yet he was defeated without any chance to fight back.

This might be an opponent that the Order World has never faced before.

The Order World should regret allowing someone like this to grow.

If he is like this at Sixth Rank, imagine the Seventh Rank.

Gu Jianlin shook his head and said, "This isn’t the most terrifying part; I’m not the only one who holds such power."

The dream just now is the best proof; that desolate planet is likely the Mother Star of the Ancient God Clan, where the Candle Light Divine Tree and Ghostly Glowing Lotus were born, now shrouded in the mist of the Third Law, with the consciousness of the two Ancient Supremes, the Vermilion Bird and Candle Dragon, possibly fighting there for a long time.

According to Gu Jianlin’s speculation, only those who have mastered the Third Law can enter that dreamscape.

Gu Jianlin originally didn’t have the qualifications, only relying on the convenience of the Colorless Jade allowed him entry.

Without the help of a good sister, he might have already died.

"Indeed, you’re not the only one."

Ying Changsheng frowned, looking towards the top of the altar: "There’s also the monster of the Bai Ze Clan."

They exchanged glances, mustering their fatigued bodies to stride up the altar’s stone steps.

"Before the President left, he gave me a secret order, which is to continue lurking in the Order World and to destroy the container of Bai Ze Venerable as much as possible. I just heard your conversation. Was that monster made by eating your father’s flesh?" Ying Changsheng raised his hand, and sixteen jade flying swords swirled behind him.

"Yes."

Gu Jianlin said softly, "Can you still fight?"

"I can probably hold on for a while longer."

Ying Changsheng said gravely, "Based on my speculation, Bai Ze Venerable’s container shouldn’t be too strong. It’s a new life, probably younger than you, so it shouldn’t be stronger than you."

Gu Jianlin nodded slightly; if worse comes to worst, he could let his shadow dissolve and then reform.

However, when they reached the top of the altar, they were stunned.

Sixteen ancient stone statues were surrounded by chains, and in the center was a huge petri dish, its base a complex machination submerged in a pool of mercury, connected by countless thick cables.

This scene was exceedingly eerie, a perfect fusion of the religious and the technological, sending chills down one’s spine.

What’s more, the petri dish was already shattered, its viscous nutrient solution gushing out.

Cables forcibly pulled out lay on the ground, with clear traces of flesh still on the joints.

Damp footprints extended across the altar to a wall at the end.

That wall was covered with hideous claw marks and even had a pit clearly dug out by hand.

A ghostly wind blew, sifting through the ubiquitous dust.

"Damn it."

Ying Changsheng said quietly, "In the end, that thing managed to escape."

Gu Jianlin frowned and said seriously, "Why does the President fear that thing so much?"

Theoretically, they were all of the same kind.

The President didn’t worry about Skylark and Qilin, but he did issue a kill order against this monster.

Ying Changsheng was silent for a moment, then said something unexpected: "Because the President believes the Bai Ze Clan doesn’t distinguish between saving the world and destroying it. More importantly, the President suspects that the Bai Ze Clan has seized the results of Qiongqi Venerable, and they are likely the so-called unified will."

Gu Jianlin’s eyes constricted sharply.

"Can you profile its status?"

Ying Changsheng asked, "Last time I saw, it was floating in a petri dish, and I couldn’t clearly see what it looked like."

Clap.

Applause rang out. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Jiang Yanli watched the battle on the projection screen, gently clapping and exclaiming, "Marvelous."

This king observed the entire battle, truly a spectacle pleasing to the eye. Most importantly, he witnessed the true power of the Third Law, a rule governing the Evolution Path that was utterly fascinating.

"Why did you have me wait here?"

Moon Princess said expressionlessly.

The cold moonlight illuminated her blood-stained cat-faced mask, and her Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword wrapped in Yang Flame was still dripping with blood.

No, it would be more accurate to say the entire building was bleeding like a waterfall; the life structure of a Pseudo Ancestor was clearly different, their internal blood volumes a hundred times greater than humans, their blood loss unimaginable.

In this bloody Blood Sacrifice, Moon Princess also completed her self-elevation, successfully advancing to the Sixth Rank.

At this moment, she held a small safe wrapped in chains.

Inside it stored a Holy Corpse!

"Protect me."

Jiang Yanli said with a cheerful smile and hands on hips: "I’m your uncle, you’re my niece; it’s only natural."

Moon Princess said coldly, "To be accurate, you’re my mother’s brother, and I’m your niece."

Jiang Yanli scratched his head: "Is that so? Dad’s dad is grandpa, and mom’s mom is..."

Moon Princess’s gaze trembled; even someone as cold as her couldn’t help but want to swear, ever since seeing this legendary uncle, the image of the Red King kept crumbling in her mind.

"Oh, whatever, just protect me."

Jiang Yanli hid behind the girl, justifying himself, "I’m scared."

Moon Princess took a deep breath, suppressing her internal fury: "You’re scared?"

"Of course I’m scared. I’ve been lying dormant for over two hundred years, and recently my power has barely recovered to the Eighth Rank, though very weak compared to my heyday. Don’t mind that I could summon the true form of Candle Yin; that’s just to intimidate those Order World snitches. Without your good uncle holding them back, they would’ve already come to kill us."

Jiang Yanli said quietly, "There’s bound to be something pretty scary coming out later."

The Moon Princess questioned suspiciously, "If you’re scared, why don’t you run?"

Jiang Yanli said earnestly, "I have to see it with my own eyes to understand the underlying principles. I am one of the best scholars in the world, at least a million times less stupid than my senior brother. The Bai Ze Clan’s experimentations with the Third Law are the most accessible; if they can use it, so can we!"

Moon Princess vaguely understood the king’s meaning.

Rumor has it the Red King also covets the power of the Spirit Coffin, seeking to grasp the power of the Third Law.

"Don’t forget, Frida’s Schizophrenia is acquired."

Jiang Yanli smiled and said, "Uncle has really gone through a lot for you."

Moon Princess retorted, "You seeking to acquire the Third Law, what does that have to do with me?"

Jiang Yanli, displeased, quipped, "How could you say that? I’m your uncle, how can I not be looking out for you? The boy you like now has mastered the Third Law; he embodies the most perfect existence in the world. And your competition is a perfect Spirit Coffin who is also qualified to master the Third Law."

Moon Princess narrowed her beautiful eyes. She had to admit her competitor truly had more potential than she did.

This was something she had always been unwilling to admit but had no choice but to acknowledge.

"Especially since there’s still a perfect being outside eyeing hungrily, even if temporarily shaken off."

Jiang Yanli muttered, "What’s that saying, you came first, right? How can I watch you be overtaken? Moreover, it’s not like I don’t know your secret, my silly girl."

Moon Princess was slightly taken aback.

Jiang Yanli’s voice was as sinister as a devil’s whisper: "The curse of the Vermilion Bird Clan has already manifested in you."

Moon Princess was startled and frighteningly slammed the blade to his neck: "Don’t you tell anyone!"

Jiang Yanli, terrified, raised his hands in surrender again.

Moon Princess noticed he was genuinely scared, which puzzled her.

After all, it wasn’t like she would really cut him.

Jiang Yanli displayed a painful smile as though he saw Kayako crawling down the stairs.

Moon Princess suddenly realized something and stiffly turned around.
