Chapter 3111: Six Profundities

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Previously, Duan Ling Tian had hoped for the law to be one of the Four Supreme Laws.

According to Ling Jue Yun, it would be impossible for the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit to manifest the law of time for Duan Ling Tian since Duan Ling Tian had been exposed to the law of time back when he was in the Profound Nether Mansion’s Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Nevertheless, Ling Jue Yun had said that Duan Ling Tian would have a small chance to comprehend one of the three remaining Supreme Laws: the law of space, the law of life, and the law of death.

For this reason, Duan Ling Tian did not hold high hopes of comprehending one of the Four Supreme Laws. Moreover, compared to ordinary laws, the Four Supreme Laws were more difficult to comprehend. Although the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit had heaven-defying effects, who knew if it would be able to help him comprehend a Supreme Law?

Today was his first time creating a Little World. Initially, everything had gone according to plan. However, the main branch from the Divine Tree of Life suddenly interfered, catching him off guard. For this reason, he did not need to do much to construct his Little World; the main branch from the Divine Tree of Life did most of the work.

He was stunned and at a loss over what to do when the Profound Divine Metal reminded him to seize the opportunity to observe the branch from the Tree of Life constructing the Little World since it might be able to help him comprehend the law of space, one of the Four Supreme Laws. At some point, obscure and profound information appeared in his mind. In the beginning, he could not understand it at all. However, after a while, he discovered he easily understood the information in his mind and found out the information was regarding the law of space. He was certain that his ability to effortlessly understand the information that suddenly appeared in his mind was due to the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit. This was due to him feeling a resonance with the efficacy of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit before he suddenly understood the obscure and profound information.

“The law of space…” Duan Ling Tian tried to restrain his excitement as he comprehended the law of space that suddenly appeared in his mind. He comprehended it easily as though the information had been ingrained in his mind since birth.

“The Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit helped me to comprehend six profundities from the law of space!” After Duan Ling Tian confirmed the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit had helped him to comprehend six profundities from the law of space, he grew even more excited.

Duan Ling Tian had heard that the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit would allow one to comprehend at least six profundities from a law. In the past, there was even a person who managed to comprehend eight profundities after consuming the fruit.

Despite the number of profundities he had comprehended being the lowest number of profundities one would be able to comprehend after consuming the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit, Duan Ling Tian did not feel disappointed at all. Although he had only comprehended six profundities, they were profundities from one of the Four Supreme Laws! How could ordinary laws compare to any of the Four Supreme Laws?

The Four Supreme Laws were harder to comprehend and come across compared to ordinary laws. One could comprehend ordinary laws through Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that contained laws. On the other hand, the Four Supreme Laws could not be found in Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. It depended on one’s luck to be able to come across the Four Supreme Laws.

For all these reasons, Duan Ling Tian was ecstatic he managed to comprehend six profundities from the law of space. It took a long time before his excitement finally subsided.

After about 15 minutes had passed, Duan Ling Tian suppressed his excitement and began to identify the types of profundities he had comprehended from the law of space with the help of the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.

“Needless to say, one of the six profundities from the law of space I comprehended is its Fundamental Profundity, the Space Elemental Profundity. Apart from that, the other profundities I’ve comprehended are the Restraining Profundity, the Distortion Profundity, the Teleportation Profundity, the Cross Dimensional Slash Profundity, and the Territory Profundity.”

“The Restraining Profundity is the main assistive profundity from the law of space while the Distortion Profundity and Cross Dimensional Slash Profundity are offensive profundities. The Teleportation Profundity is a movement profundity, and the Territory Profundity is a defensive profundity.”

To Duan Ling Tian, the law of space’s six profundities that the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit allowed him to comprehend were not any harder to comprehend or to cast than the profundities from ordinary laws that he had used his own effort to comprehend. Not only that, but he was very familiar with their uses as well.

‘Restraining Profundity!’ With just a thought, Celestial Origin Energy surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body; it had been boosted with the law of space’s Space Elemental Profundity. His Celestial Origin Energy manifested in the form of grey energy for a brief moment before it vanished from sight.

“This is it!” Through the window, Duan Ling Tian’s eye locked onto a black beetle gnawing on the bark of a tree in the courtyard. With just a thought, the void around the beetle began to ripple. Upon sensing this, the beetle tried to fly away. Alas, as it flapped its wing and moved up, it was met with resistance and bounced back as though it had hit something. It could not leave at all regardless of which direction it tried to fly out of. With the beetle in the center, it could only move a foot in each direction before it was stopped.

“Tighten!” Duan Ling Tian’s gaze hardened. The space in which the beetle was trapped shrank rapidly. It did not stop until the beetle was completely crushed. All that was left of the beetle was a tiny black smudge.

“Not only can the law of space’s Restraining Profundity trap others, but it can also be used to hurt and kill…” Previously, he had read about the law of space’s profundities from the Memory Celestial Talisman in the library of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. However, his understanding was just theoretical. Now that he could cast it, he gained a deeper understanding of it and discovered how terrifying it could be.

Soon after, he shifted his attention to another profundity from the law of space. “Distortion Profundity…”

Similarly, with just a thought, he easily cast the profundity. His gaze found a branch on the tree. The void around the branch began to ripple again. Soon after, the branch jerked around violently for a short moment before it was reduced to dust by the Distortion Profundity.

‘Cross Dimensional Slash Profundity!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

All of a sudden, tiny cracks began to appear in the void. Soon enough, an energy blade shot out of one of the cracks. It looked like an attack from another dimension.

Swoosh!

The blade shot out and drew across the tree. Not only did it fell the tree, but the part of the tree that the blade touched seemed like it was being corroded.

“The Cross Dimensional Slash Profundity’s offensive power is really high. Not only is it capable of cutting through almost everything, but it secretes incredibly corrosive energy to corrode the target as well. If I use this to attack someone, apart from the injury from the blade, their internal organs would be corroded by the corrosive energy once the energy enters their bodies!”

The Cross Dimensional Slash Profundity was the most mysterious offensive profundity among the profundities from the law of space. Its attacks seemed to come from another dimension and were corrosive as well.

Before shifting his attention to the next profundity, Duan Ling Tian closed the window with a wave of his hand. His room became an enclosed space immediately.

‘Teleportation Profundity!’

Whoosh!

Duan Ling Tian’s entire body was shrouded by his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted with the Space Elemental Profundity. The void began to ripple before he suddenly vanished into thin air. Soon after, he reappeared in the courtyard outside his room.

“The Teleportation Profundity enables me to move across space… As its name suggests, I can teleport from one spot to another even if there are obstacles between the two places. However, the teleportation’s range is only about 100 meters for now!”

For ordinary people, 100 meters was quite a distance. They would need, at least, 10 seconds to cover that distance in a sprint. However, the current Duan Ling Tian could cover the distance of 100 meters with just a thought. Even his attacks could cover 100 meters in just a second.

‘At the rudimentary stage, I’m able to teleport anywhere within 100 meters of my location… If I comprehend it to the initial stage, I think I should be able to teleport anywhere within 10,000 meters! If I manage to comprehend it to the mastery stage… I’ll probably be able to teleport to any place within 1,000 kilometers!’ Duan Ling Tian gulped. He could imagine how terrifying this profundity would be if he managed to comprehend it to the mastery stage.

Soon enough, another thought occurred to him. ‘However, even at the rudimentary stage, the Teleportation Profundity will be much faster in a battle compared to movement profundities from other laws. After all, I’m teleporting so I’m not hindered by any obstacles!’

In a battle, Duan Ling Tian could teleport behind his opponent in just a blink of an eye. Before his opponent reacted, he would have already made a move. This would give him the upper hand in a battle. What a terrifying technique!
