Creating Heavenly Laws

Christmas Day!! Double chapters for you guys :D

...

In a daze, Lin Yuan finally regained consciousness.

"Where is this?"

Lin Yuan observed his surroundings and found himself lying in a narrow room.

Lin Yuan rubbed his temples. Before his consciousness had lapsed into unconsciousness, he had seen a 'white paper.'

A piece of 'white paper' that had squeezed through a permanent spatial rift from the outside.

And then...

Lin Yuan felt a dramatic change in space and time, as if some kind of support was collapsing.

Lin Yuan reestablished his connection with his true self, and he let out a slight sigh of relief.

"No, something's wrong."

Lin Yuan's expression suddenly became serious.

"Where is the spatial layer?"

"And where are the various rule fluctuations?"

Lin Yuan could hardly believe it. At this moment, he couldn't sense even the slightest rule fluctuations.

And the spatial layer? Not only could he not detect any spatial rules, but there was also no trace of the spatial layer.

It was as if this world had only an extremely thin layer of space.

But how could that be possible?

If there were no spatial layers, it would mean the world was incomplete.

An incomplete world couldn't possibly bear the descent of a tenth-rank life form like him. Even if it could barely contain him, he should be able to tear everything apart with just a thought. But now, Lin Yuan didn't feel any such capability.

Milky Way's main star.

Lin Yuan frowned deeply.

"All the spatial fluctuations are still there, and so is the spatial layer."

Lin Yuan was puzzled. How could there be no spatial rule fluctuations where the Yang Primordial Spirit was located?

It's well known that time and space are the fundamental pillars of any spatial world. Other rule fluctuations could be suppressed or shielded.

But time and space cannot be suppressed or shielded.

For example, in the space of a black planet, you could only feel the corresponding fusion rule fluctuations, but aside from that, there would still be slight spatial fluctuations.

"The Strongest One."

Lin Yuan immediately contacted the Strongest One.

"You, along with all the life forms on the battlefield, have fallen into that piece of white paper," the Strongest One, Xia Qin, said as soon as he saw Lin Yuan.

"Everything near that white paper will be automatically 'degraded.' Only twelfth-rank life forms can resist it," Xia Qin, added. "But don't worry, I'm working on a way to see if I can pull you out."

"Thank you, Strongest One."

Lin Yuan roughly understood the situation of the Yang Primordial Spirit.

Inside the white paper scroll.

Lin Yuan's thoughts spread out.

"I'm currently inside that white paper, forcibly downgraded. No wonder I can't sense any rule fluctuations," Lin Yuan thought to himself.

"Even my internal world has been compressed into a flat plane," Lin Yuan examined himself and found that his internal world had completely disappeared, leaving only a faint trace.

"My physical body, my power, my soul, they've all been forcibly reduced to an extremely low level." Lin Yuan carefully sensed his condition, and his expression grew grave.

"But...the Gate of Myriad Realms is still here." Lin Yuan's consciousness sank into his mind, looking at the still majestic and grand Gate of Myriad Realms.

Even in this two-dimensional world inside the white paper, the Gate of Myriad Realms still exuded a supreme aura, unaffected in any way.

"A two-dimensional world?"

This was the first time Lin Yuan had encountered such a world.

Previously, in his nine transmigrations through the Gate of Myriad Realms, he had always traveled to other dimensional planes.

But the dimensions he had traversed were all on the same level as the main universe's dimension. As for lower dimensions, Lin Yuan had never encountered them.

"That piece of white paper can actually reduce everything nearby to two dimensions. The chaotic void is truly mysterious, even containing such strange objects."

Lin Yuan wasn't panicked but waited for a reply from the Strongest One.

In fact, if he hadn't invested a great deal of resources in this Yang Primordial Spirit body, Lin Yuan would have already considered extinguishing this clone and leaving.

But being rescued by the Strongest One would naturally be a better outcome.

Milky Way's main star.

Lin Yuan waited for a moment.

He saw the Strongest One, Xia Qin, again.

Compared to his earlier calmness, the Strongest One's expression was now solemn.

"There's a bit of a problem."

Xia Qin, looked at Lin Yuan and said in a deep voice, "That 'white paper' is of too high a level. We can't refine it, nor can we interfere with it."

The implication was clear.

They couldn't pull Lin Yuan out.

"Then I'll just abandon that clone," Lin Yuan immediately said.

Although he was quite curious about the two-dimensional world inside the white paper, without specific information, Lin Yuan dared not stay in it for long.

What if he encountered the curse-killing power of that cosmic outer light? Wouldn't that be even more troublesome? Though that cosmic outer light could only curse-kill life forms below the tenth rank, and Lin Yuan had left a lot of his blood in the Mysterious Emperor's Secret Realm.

With the Mysterious Emperor's Secret Realm's ability to isolate cause and effect, even a curse from the Strongest One could be easily blocked.

But who could say for sure when it came to the chaotic void? So, it was better to leave as soon as possible.

A wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall.

"Absolutely not,"Xia Qin, shook his head.

"An alien race has already tried to self-destruct a clone that fell into the white paper."

"But the result..."

The Strongest One paused for a moment before continuing, "It was discovered that the self-destructed clone could never recover."

"Never recover?"

Lin Yuan was shocked.

The essence of the clone technique is to cut off a part of one's own spiritual will, and then with that will as the core, derive a second body. For any life form, the spiritual will is the most crucial part. Only through the same spiritual will can memory communication and consciousness sharing be achieved.

And to maintain the connection between the split spiritual will and the true self.

The total amount of spiritual will is fixed.

For example, if a tenth-rank strong being's spiritual will is ten points.

If two points of spiritual will are split off to form a clone.

Then the true self's spiritual will would be eight points.

The clone's spiritual will would be two points.

If another two points of spiritual will were split off to form a second clone.

Then the true self's spiritual will would be six points.

The spiritual will of the two clones would each be two points.

This is also why most strong beings only have one clone.

The more clones are formed, the weaker the true self's spiritual will becomes.

And the weakening of spiritual will has a comprehensive impact, including on the understanding of rules, the exertion of one's own strength, and so on.

If a clone perishes outside.

Then the true self's spiritual will would recover.

And then you could continue to split your spiritual will to form a new clone.

But what the Strongest One, Xia Qin, meant was that in the two-dimensional world within the white paper, a self-destructed clone would be permanently lost? In other words, the spiritual will carried by the clone could not recover, and the true self would permanently lose part of its spiritual will?

In a flash.

Lin Yuan immediately realized what that meant.

The consequences were dire.

The price was too severe.

Permanently losing part of his spiritual will could almost make his potential and strength drop by several levels.

Creating a clone does require splitting off a part of one's spiritual will, but as long as the clone is recovered, that part of the spiritual will can be restored.

But now?

Permanently unable to recover?

"I..."

Lin Yuan thought of himself.

If the Yang Primordial Spirit were to perish in the two-dimensional world inside the white paper.

Would that mean he could no longer re-condense this Primordial Spirit?

And the Yin Primordial Spirit and Yang Primordial Spirit were the foundation of Lin Yuan's martial path, supporting his grand martial arts.

Permanently losing the Yang Primordial Spirit would severely impact Lin Yuan's martial evolution system.

With only the Yin Primordial Spirit, his martial path would lose the balance of Yin and Yang and could potentially collapse.

"The Gate of Myriad Realms."

In the two-dimensional world inside the white paper, Lin Yuan's consciousness immediately sank into his mind, looking at the grand Gate of Myriad Realms.

If his spiritual will entered the Gate of Myriad Realms, descending into other dimensional worlds, and waited for the Yang Primordial Spirit to die in the two-dimensional world, could the spiritual will of the Yang Primordial Spirit then return to the true self?

Could this avoid the permanent loss of the Yang Primordial Spirit?

Lin Yuan wasn't sure; this method could only be used as a last resort.

"The best choice, of course, is to escape from this two-dimensional world, but how do I do that?" Lin Yuan's thoughts were racing.

Human civilization's strongest beings knew nothing about that 'white paper,' the only certainty was that it was related to the Taiyuan Ruins.

"Wait."

"Ask them."

Lin Yuan's thoughts shifted.

Mysterious Emperor's Secret Realm.

Lin Yuan's consciousness avatar descended.

"Master," a six-armed figure bowed slightly to Lin Yuan, showing respect.

"Do you know anything about this 'white paper'?" Lin Yuan didn't waste time and directly revealed the appearance of the 'white paper.'

The six-armed figure was the spirit of the Mysterious Emperor's Secret Realm, created by the Mysterious Sovereign himself, so it certainly knew far more than the nine strongest beings of human civilization.

After all, the Mysterious Sovereign was a formidable being with great renown even in the chaotic void.

"This 'white paper' contains a two-dimensional world where everything nearby is forcibly degraded and falls into the white paper," Lin Yuan explained everything he knew.

"A two-dimensional world?"

"White paper?"

The six-armed figure was slightly stunned.

"Master, do you mean 'low-dimensional space'?" the six-armed figure quickly asked.

"Low-dimensional space?" Lin Yuan's spirit lifted. "Explain it in detail."

"Yes." The six-armed figure didn't dare to hesitate, realizing how important this was to Lin Yuan.

"The so-called low-dimensional space originated from a small amount of information that His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign obtained from a dangerous place."

The six-armed figure quickly explained: "Low-dimensional space was created by beings approaching the perfection of time-life to explore other dimensional spaces."

"However, later on, some strong beings discovered that low-dimensional space could allow two beings of different strengths to stand on the same starting point, each splitting a part of their spiritual will to descend into the low-dimensional space, where they would both have to start from scratch."

"Abandoning everything, starting anew, with no influence from bloodlines, no influence from secret techniques, and no influence from rule comprehension, the greatest use of low-dimensional space was to test 'insight.'"

"Under the same starting point and environment, within a fixed time, the one who improved their strength the fastest would be the one with the strongest insight."

"Later, low-dimensional space gradually became a form of entertainment, where beings of different levels would often split off a part of their spiritual will to enter the low-dimensional space and engage in a round of battle."

The six-armed figure paused for a moment, seeming to recall something. "Of course, there are two types of low-dimensional space."

"One is purely for entertainment, without any restrictions."

"The other is a gamble-type low-dimensional space, where there are many rules, and leaving in the middle will result in severe punishment. However, if you defeat your opponent in the end, you will also receive generous rewards."

The six-armed figure's tone took on a hint of nostalgia: "His Majesty the Mysterious Sovereign once said that the final winner of a low-dimensional space would take everything."
