Divine God Against The Heavens

Ye Xiao turned his gaze in the direction of the void. Through the three holes, Ye Xiao could see the scene outside.

Layers of white clouds blanketed his vision, with mist and fog all around.

On a jade-white platform, an old man with a flowing white beard was dressed in ancient robes, sitting atop a purple-colored praying mat. He had a faint air of divinity around him. He seemed to be appearing near but in reality, he was very far away. He was almost triple the size of a normal human being. He was like a giant, slightly taller than the people of the Sky Ghost Race.

In Ye Xiao's vision, things were clear, but they seemed to be obscured by something. It seemed as though no one could see this old man clearly. There was nothing to rely on, no way to search for him.

Many men of the same or shorter height, but definitely taller than humans, in long robes sat below him. Their expressions were all solemn as they respectfully listened to the lecture.

"The Heavenly Dao is very mysterious. There are more than 3000 laws of the Heavens and their Profound Meanings. These laws and profound meanings are the true strength of Heavens. When gathered together, they create a true universe. Without ordinary laws, a universe is still a universe, but without Unique and mainly without Supreme Laws, a universe can never be a true universe."

"The four supreme laws, Laws of Space, Time, Destruction and Creation are the sources of everything, they together create a core which supports the entire Universe themselves. Then there are the Laws of Light and Darkness, and Laws of Life and Death. These four unique laws could be said to be the very next layer of the core, a very important part. Without them, there will be no life and death, no light and darkness in the Universe."

The voice of this immortal-like old man was loud and clear, filled with a refined tone. The gentle breeze of the mountain could be felt in the air as he spoke about the supreme and wondrous technique, a technique filled with Dao intent.

Ye Xiao's expression grew solemn; he pricked his ears up and listened carefully. It is because he suddenly realized the main reason why his Small Universe can't give birth to life. It is because his universe lacks many things, mainly the Law of Life, light, and Time.

He started carefully hearing the old man.

"I am saying this not because I want to show off my knowledge about Heavens and its Dao, it is because these eight laws are the main ingredients to create the pill I was talking about, the pill that could help an Ancient God break past the limit of Heavens."

"What is a pill?"

"Pills are medicines that have a life in them; medicines are pills that have no life in them. Every single concocted pill is a brand new product that affects a person in a certain direction and in certain ways. Only when one consumes pills would they be able to regulate their own destiny, allowing their bodies to be compatible with the medicinal effects, not allowing the potency of the pill to strike against the limits of the body. Some magic pills are even able to allow someone to be reborn again stronger than ever."

The old man slowly lectured on, imparting profound teachings as everyone listened attentively.

Ye Xiao felt great waves of emotions in his heart as he carefully listens to the preaching of the old man.

He didn't expect the old man to say that the main ingredients to refine the pill that could help an Ancient God break past the limit of the Heavens are the Eight Laws. Among these eight laws, four laws are Supreme Laws and four Laws are Unique Laws, ranked only below the Supreme Laws.

But the question is... How can a person use these laws as ingredients?

How could the laws be used to refine medicinal pills?

Thinking like this, Ye Xiao focused on the old man again. He wanted to hear more of what the old man was talking about.

The old man stopped for a while. He smiled as he folded his hands and said. "There is one extra person present here. How amusing?"

The speculations of the disciples increased as they didn't know what the old man meant by this.

Only the puzzled look on the handsome male face student had vanished as though he understood somewhat.

Thunderous explosions went off in Ye Xiao's mind as his thoughts became blank.

That old man merely smiled and didn't say anything. His eyes seemed capable of seeing through the vast river of time, slowly staring at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect the old man to be able to see him. This was a situation Ye Xiao has never expected. He didn't know what is going on currently, and why this old man was able to see him.

The old man's gaze paused on Ye Xiao before moving away. He then continued: "This pill has no name, it is because it has never been concocted successfully. We have been able to perceive this pill's recipe only recently after sacrificing the lives of many of our race's alchemists. Those alchemists were killed by the Heavenly Dao because they did something that goes against the will of Heavens."

"But, before those alchemists were killed, they eventually left behind that pill recipe."

"We already have people who have comprehended the Law of Life and Death, Light and Darkness, Destruction and Creation, and the Law of Space. We only lack a person with the comprehension of the Law of Time. But there hasn't been a single such person since the birth of the Heavens. It is because Heavens does not allow anyone to comprehend the Law of Time. In fact, let alone comprehending, no one could even sense the Law of Time."

"Thus, this pill can't be perfected. Nevertheless, we still managed to obtain a very very precious material that could replace the Law of Time, however, it still could not truly replace Time Law. Because of this, the effect of this pill is decreased by 30%."

Ye Xiao was hearing very carefully. He was not surprised when he heard that no one has ever comprehended the Law of Time. But he was astonished when he heard that the Heavenly Demons have produced people who have already comprehended three of the Supreme Laws.

And he was stunned when he heard that there is a treasure that could actually replace the Law of Time.

The old man took out a kite-shaped crystal which was sparkling brilliantly and said: "This is a Law Breaking Stone. With this stone in hand, we can break even the absolute rule and limitation of Heavens."

"Now, if you ask, if the Law Breaking Stone could even break the absolute rule of the Heavens, then it should let a person break the limit and make an Ancient God go beyond the Heavens."

"But, the answer is no. The Law Breaking Stone could only affect the laws of Heavens, not the Heavens itself. It could not even affect the Will of Heavens. All in all, the Law Breaking Stone is still a treasure born in the Heavens."

"Coming back to the point, we can replace the Law of Time with Law Breaking Stone."

The old man continued to explain for a few hours before he finally said: "And now, we have become the enemy of Heavens. It is all because of this pill. Even if someone eats this pill, he needs a certain period of time to digest the pill's energy and let the pill create a miracle. But before the pill could even take the effect, the Heavens will definitely attack with all their strength. This pill is only refined using the eight laws of Heavens. And if attacked by the true strength of Heavens, no one could endure. That person will be killed in an instant."

"Moreover, because we, Heavenly Demon Race, are the creator of this pill, we have already become Heavens' enemy. Sooner or later, we will be destroyed by the Heavens. Our race will cease to exist."

"That's why I have decided to seal this pill inside the Heavenly Demon Palace." Saying this, the old man looked in Ye Xiao's direction and smiled. Then he said again: "Maybe, far in the future, someone will appear and dare to swallow this pill, break past the limit of Heavens and Transcend."

This was the last sentence said by the old man. The moment he finished his last sentence, the surroundings suddenly swirled, causing Ye Xiao's eyes to become blurry. Then Ye Xiao suddenly felt the hot temperature and he came back to his senses.

He was shocked to find that for some reason, he was standing inside the furnace and was holding the fist-sized pill in his hand.

It has to be known that Ye Xiao was standing outside and only used his Divine Sense to probe this pill. But now, he was standing inside the furnace, surrounded by burning fire.
