Chapter 153 Creation and Spirituality
After careful consideration, Luo Xuan finally decided to take the plunge and go for it.
If one can capture a parasite at the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal, it can be used as an extremely rare spiritual object for cultivation and handed over to higher-ups.
More importantly, through studying and understanding the parasites, there may be a chance to comprehend the mysteries of the primordial chaos.
Zhao Xuan replaced Luo Xuan but did not take direct action to resolve the issue or act rashly.
Despite possessing incredibly powerful mythological laws, he did not directly use these laws to assimilate the fire laws mastered by Luo Xuan.
Instead, Zhao Xuan decided to take Luo Xuan's Flame Law as a guide and calm down to cultivate the Dao of Laws.
Zhao Xuan knew that it would not be difficult for him to break through to the Primordial Limitless Golden Immortal realm by relying on the laws of mythology.
The key lies in the fact that the existence of the power of Wuji endows the laws of mythology with inherent advantages, giving them a solid foundation for achieving the laws of Wuji.
The most significant advantage of the Mythical Law lies in its outstanding ability to collect and analyze information. And the Mythical Law, after being empowered by the power of the Limitless, urgently needs a massive amount of information to continuously enrich and improve itself.
However, since this information on laws was collected and analyzed from mythological laws, Zhao Xuan himself did not truly comprehend or control them.
Therefore, he can only unleash the power of the laws contained within by using the special means of transforming into a persona.
Furthermore, this ability of the transformed character to wield various laws actually originates from the power of laws bestowed by mythological laws, exhibiting a kind of "Confucian skin with Legalist bones" application.
The so-called "skin" refers to the laws practiced by those transformed characters; while the "bone" undoubtedly points to the laws of mythology itself.
It is precisely because of this that when Zhao Xuan completed the transformation, he was able to make these laws display even greater power.
If we compare a law to a nuclear bomb, it typically possesses three destructive forces: the core explosive force, the shock wave, and nuclear radiation.
When the rules are applied in the conventional way, these three destructive effects can naturally be triggered.
However, if Zhao Xuan uses the illusionary character law, it actually only enhances the core explosive power.
However, in the prehistoric world, due to the huge gap in strength, this approach actually allowed Zhao Xuan to handle many powerful enemies and complex situations with ease and composure.
Zhao Xuan comprehended and analyzed the massive amount of information contained in Pangu's consciousness. Logically speaking, the mythological laws he had comprehended and mastered should have been elevated to the level of the laws of chaos through this opportunity.
Although Pangu's consciousness only mastered a portion of the laws on the chaotic side, in essence, it still belonged to the chaotic system within the laws of chaos.
In addition, the key information that Zhao Xuan had previously analyzed and obtained from the mysterious and unpredictable Primordial True Spirit River can serve as the order side of this law.
In this way, the two complement each other, which is enough to enable the mythological laws to complete their transformation and ascend to become the laws of chaos.
However, the final result was only 90% complete.
The reason behind this is that the foundation of mythological laws has been completely exhausted and must be replenished in time.
In fact, Zhao Xuan had already begun working on this matter long before he was in the prehistoric world.
It's just that the methods used at the time were far from keeping up with the speed of the law's improvement.
Specifically, when the laws of mythology undergo a transformation, a portion of the spirituality will be squeezed out.
To avoid arousing the vigilance and awareness of the Primordial Heavenly Dao by absorbing too much Primordial spirituality, Zhao Xuan did not dare to indulge himself too much in absorbing Primordial spirituality to replenish his foundation.
He only refined a small amount of spirituality when he received the powerful blessing of the Great Calamity Consciousness, and then used it to construct the Three Mythical Forms.
Ultimately, the root cause of this situation lies in the fact that Zhao Xuan's Mythical Laws are improving at an excessively rapid pace.
For a normal law to be elevated to the level of a mythical law, the time required is unimaginably long, often calculated in countless eons.
Take the Lesser Thousand Worlds as an example. The reason why its lifespan is set to an immeasurable kalpa is that, under normal circumstances, a world of immeasurable kalpas is needed for the primordial laws to gradually evolve into the level of the Three Thousand Laws.
The three immeasurable eons of the Middle Thousand Worlds represent the time when the three thousand laws are merged together to form the Chaos Law.
As for the nine immeasurable eons of time in the Great Thousand Worlds, that is the time of transformation from the Law of Chaos to the Law of Limitlessness.
In just ten thousand years, Zhao Xuan advanced rapidly from the primordial law level to the level of ninety percent of the chaotic laws.
In ten thousand years, he covered the path that other cultivators took four immeasurable kalpas to complete. Such speed was truly inconceivable, but at the same time, it also brought serious consequences—the root genes of the mythological laws were overdrawn and almost exhausted.
In reality, Zhao Xuan didn't need to take any major actions at this moment; he only needed to wait patiently. As time passed, he would be able to continuously draw spiritual matter from the vast and boundless void, thereby replenishing his depleted foundation.
However, while this method is feasible, it inevitably consumes a lot of time.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Zhao Xuan decided to take a different approach. He planned to use Luo Xuan's body to cultivate the laws of fire and take this opportunity to absorb spiritual substances from the world in order to quickly make up for his depleted foundation.
As for why they didn't directly absorb the spirituality within the chaos, the reason wasn't that they didn't want to, but rather that they couldn't.
What the laws of mythology require is the spirit of creation.
Such a creative spirit is extremely rare in a chaotic environment.
It could even be said that it is the key and the foundation for the birth of chaotic beings and the creation of the entire world.
This is why this incomparably precious creative spirit is almost entirely concentrated within the bodies of chaotic beings and within various worlds, making it extremely rare and hard to find in the vast chaos.
This is why, when Pangu created the world, he not only had to transform himself into all things, but also required three thousand chaotic demons to voluntarily sacrifice themselves.
In fact, at the beginning of the creation of all worlds, the creators could not have done without filling the world with the creative spirituality they needed by transforming themselves into all things.
Only when the creator of the world successfully integrates himself into and becomes a part of this world can the great path of the world he has achieved reach its due level and height.
Once the creator of such a world completes the transformation of the laws and reshapes itself, the original world will naturally return to the creator's body, and the world will return to the state of chaos at its beginning.
However, if one could obtain a large number of chaotic beings or rare chaotic spiritual objects as substitutes to replenish the world's creative spirituality, one could not only avoid transforming into all things during creation, but also avoid the world returning to chaos after attaining enlightenment.
But achieving this is easier said than done, since both chaotic beings and chaotic spirits are things that can only be encountered by chance and cannot be sought after.
Typically, such worlds are quite similar to the realms of gods; both are worlds specifically prepared for those who follow the laws of Tao.
Zhao Xuan had wandered in the chaos for so long, during which he had only encountered one chaotic beast.
He killed it and obtained some precious creation particles for refining.
Unfortunately, this little bit of creative inspiration is far from enough to trigger a transformation in the laws of mythology.
As for why he used Luo Xuan's identity to carry out the refining operation, it was simply because, just like in the primordial world, he didn't want the world will of the divine realm to detect his existence.
After all, world consciousness and the Great Way of the World are two completely different concepts.
The so-called world will is something formed by the convergence of the world's spirituality, and it always strictly follows the laws governing the world's operation.
In contrast, the Great Way of the World is governed by the consciousness of its founder.
While the Great Way of the World can exert some influence on the operation of world consciousness, in most cases, it must still act in accordance with the operating rules set by the World Will.
This is why creating a world allows us to utilize the laws governing world evolution.
It is no easy task to use the power of the Great Dao of the world to suppress the world's consciousness.
For example, the primordial world, according to its size and potential, should have developed into a great world, but in order to have absolute authority to make the primordial world operate according to his will, Pangu ultimately only transformed it into a medium world.
One crucial point to note is that no other powerful cultivators must interfere throughout the entire process. The mere intervention of external forces would create extremely difficult circumstances, potentially rendering all previous efforts futile.
The Way of Heaven is, in fact, an external manifestation of world consciousness.
In most cases, the Way of Heaven governs all things in the world, while the Great Way remains hidden behind the scenes, unnoticed by people.
However, when the Heavenly Dao encounters certain intractable problems, the Great Dao can take control of the Sea World and exert a certain degree of influence on the operation of the Heavenly Dao.
Conversely, if the Heavenly Way operates normally without any errors, then the Great Way can only temporarily step aside and cannot easily intervene.
Upon closer examination, the relationship between the Great Dao and the Heavenly Dao is quite similar to that between the Legislative Yuan and the courts in reality.
All laws and regulations are formulated by the Legislative Yuan, and the courts handle various cases in accordance with these established laws and regulations.
However, how each specific law or regulation should be applied depends entirely on the judgment and ruling of the court.
Even if the court makes an inappropriate judgment due to defects or errors in the laws and regulations themselves, the parties involved must first accept the judgment.
Only after a series of legal procedures can the original judgment be corrected or adjusted.
