Hong Huang: I am the cowherd

Chapter 18 The Law of Power

As a Heavenly Dao Saint, Tongtian was one of the most powerful beings in the Primordial World. Having cultivated for billions of years, he had seen all kinds of miracles. Yet today, for the first time, his understanding of reality was completely shaken by his own disciple!

Initially, Tongtian believed that, given Su Chen’s talent and fortune, he should be able to break into the Golden Immortal of Undying Realm after reaching Peak Golden Immortal. That was why he had stopped his lecture and even woken Su Chen from his state of enlightenment.

He wanted Su Chen to reach this profound realm, so he could solidify his foundation early. But who could have imagined that as soon as Tongtian mentioned the Undying Realm. Su Chen had already broken through instantly. This was too fast!

And what was even more unbelievable was that after entering the Undying Realm, Su Chen had begun to perceive countless Great Dao’s Laws!

Moreover, these Great Dao’s Laws were acting as if they were paying homage to him. This was utterly unimaginable!

Normally, when a cultivator first perceived the Great Dao, they would only resonate with a single Law. This would determine the path of Dao comprehension they would follow in the future.

For instance, Tongtian himself first sensed the Law of Formations when he reached Taiyi Golden Immortal. His eldest brother, Taiqing Laozi, sensed the Law of Alchemy. His second brother, Yuanshi Tianzun, sensed the Law of Forging.

It was only after Tongtian reached the Quasi-Saint level and obtained the Four Immortal Execution Swords that he fully comprehended the Law of the Sword. Because he had comprehended two different Laws,

He had to split his focus, which caused his cultivation to fall behind his two elder brothers. Of course, although Tongtian’s cultivation realm was slightly lower than Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, His true combat strength was on par with them, or even superior!

Since attaining Sainthood Tongtian had witnessed countless geniuses. Even his eldest disciple, Duo Bao, had entered the Undying Realm while still at Golden Immortal.

However, Even Duo Bao had only perceived a single Law at that time, and only resonated with that one Law’s power. The same was true for Xuan Du, the prized disciple of Taiqing Laozi. Guang Chengzi, Yu Ding, and Nanji Xianweng, the disciples of Yuanshi Tianzun. All of them had entered the Undying Realm at Golden Immortal. Yet each one had only perceived a single Law!

But Su Chen upon entering the Undying Realm had sensed countless Laws at once!

“One… two… five hundred… three thousand!”

Tongtian carefully observed the swirling Dao Laws around Su Chen. He counted a total of 3,000 different Laws!

“Hiss!”

Tongtian involuntarily gasped, his heart shaking violently. He realized ever since he met Su Chen, he had experienced more shocks than in his entire billions of years of existence. This was simply too unbelievable!

At that moment, a thought suddenly struck Tongtian’s mind.

Could it be Su Chen has inherited Pangu’s true legacy—the Law of Power?

At this realization, Tongtian’s eyes widened.

Then, he slowly became more and more convinced.

The Law of Power is not only the head of the 3,000 Great Daos, but also their grand unifying principle!

Back in the Chaos Era, Pangu was one of the strongest Chaos Gods precisely because he cultivated the Law of Power!

With this Law, he crushed all other Chaos Gods and successfully opened the Primordial World!

Now, Su Chen has comprehended 3,000 different Laws at once… and these Laws gather before him as if paying tribute!

If this isn’t due to the Law of Power, then what else could possibly explain it?

As Tongtian thought about this, his excitement grew boundless.

If Su Chen has truly inherited the Law of Power, and is also cultivating both the Nine Revolutions Mystical Art and the Nine Revolutions Primordial Art…

Then when he attains Sainthood—

Won’t he be able to suppress all other Saints?

Hahaha! Su Chen is truly the One Who Escaped the Great Dao’s Calculations!

He is the greatest fortune to ever come to my Jie Sect!

Accepting him as my disciple is undoubtedly the most brilliant decision I have ever made!

At that moment, Tongtian swore to himself that he would protect Su Chen at all costs, ensuring that he grew unhindered. That way the Jie Sect would flourish eternally and stand above all others in the Primordial World!

_____

Meanwhile, It must be said—Tongtian’s wisdom was unparalleled.

From the mere phenomena surrounding Su Chen, he had correctly deduced that Su Chen was sensing the Law of Power!

After all, Su Chen had inherited a drop of Pangu’s Heartblood. With the system’s assistance, this drop of Heartblood had fully integrated into his body, significantly enhancing his foundation.

Thus, the true inheritance hidden within Pangu’s Heartblood was awakening. Everyone knew the Twelve Ancestral Witches were born from Pangu’s blood. Each of them, upon taking form, had naturally controlled a different Law.

Di Jiang wielded the Law of Space and Speed.

Hou Tu wielded the Law of Earth.

Candle Dragon wielded the Law of Time.

However, all of these different Laws were merely fragments of the Law of Power!

Because the Law of Power was the grand unifying principle of the 3,000 Great Daos!

The Twelve Ancestral Witches had each inherited only tiny fractions of this supreme Law, which then manifested as twelve separate Daos.

But Su Chen had inherited a drop of Pangu’s Heartblood. Compared to ordinary Ancestral Witch blood, this was 100 times more potent!

Thus, the inheritance he received was 100 times stronger than any Ancestral Witch’s!

Which meant Su Chen had inherited the true, complete Law of Power—Pangu’s ultimate legacy!
