On the road leading to an inn within the Heavenly City, a young man and a woman sat inside an unmarked carriage. The woman was as beautiful as an angel, while the young man was handso and full of charisma.
Aldrian had decided to bring Angelica outside to et Sylphia and the rest of his group. It was much better than being constantly confined within the main church.
The pope did not find it troubleso and happily granted him permission to take Angelica out of the church. Due to her status and condition, she rarely left, which was understandable. This was a good opportunity for her to spend so ti outside the church.
Aldrian let out a small sigh as he glanced at Angelica again. Her life was pitiful, and she had little opportunity to experience the real world beyond her role as the church’s Saintess. His gaze shifted to her blind eyes, then to her legs beneath her elegant white dress.
"Can I fix sothing that has been there and unchanged since her birth?" he thought.
This question had surfaced in his mind not long ago. When he injected golden energy into her body for the first ti, he also examined her condition—and what he discovered made him sigh inwardly. Her eyes and legs, from the thighs down, appeared underdeveloped, with essential parts of the organs, such as nerves, ridians and certain muscles, never having ford.
Because of this, her eyes and legs were little more than "decorations," which made him feel deep pity for her. He wanted her to be able to see like others and walk like others. That was what his heart desired, but he couldn’t give her false hope. Her case was vastly different from simply healing an illness or lifting a curse. In her situation, he would need to create sothing that had never existed in the first place.
However, he did not despair or give up, especially after eting the "figure." That encounter had left him feeling even more motivated. His abilities were still waiting to be fully uncovered, and one of them might be the power of "creation"—the ability to bring sothing into existence from nothing.
Thinking this way, he felt an unexpected shudder deep inside his heart, mixed with excitent. This was the power of a literal god. If he could achieve it, wouldn’t that an he was one step closer to divinity? The re prospect of performing such a miracle made him eager to start studying how to do it.
"The golden energy is an all-purpose energy that obeys my will. It can possess killing properties or healing properties, but creating sothing from this energy requires far greater comprehension. How does one create sothing from nothing?" he wondered.
"It’s not just about creating sothing simply because I will it, right?" he then said to Angelica.
"Angelica, would you mind giving your hand?"
Angelica was confused by Aldrian’s request, but she still stretched out her hand toward him. He took it gently, his touch soft and tender. Her face flushed slightly, but she held back her embarrassnt as she sensed Aldrian was channeling his golden energy into her.
She could feel that the strength of the energy was far more powerful than when Aldrian had first injected it into her more than a year ago. However, she was no longer surprised. After all, he was now a Duke-stage cultivator—sothing that had initially shocked both her and the pope when they sensed his cultivation level in the Shrine of the Beginning.
They had been utterly shocked. His leap in cultivation was truly absurd, defying common sense. How could Aldrian advance an entire realm in just over a year? It was nothing short of a miracle.
Now, as his warm energy flowed into her legs, she noticed it concentrating on certain internal areas. The warmth was soothing and comforting, yet at the sa ti, she felt a slight ticklish sensation. This made her wonder—what exactly was Aldrian doing this ti?
After a few seconds, Aldrian stopped injecting his energy and inwardly shook his head.
"As I thought, there’s no way that simply ’willing’ it would make sothing appear out of nowhere. However, the good news is that my golden energy does respond to my will in this regard. It seems the only thing lacking is my own comprehension. I just need to understand what will make this ’creation’ possible," he thought.
Aldrian then released her hand and smiled at Angelica.
"I only wanted to check sothing, and it’s done," he said.
"Is there sothing wrong with ?" she asked.
"No, it’s nothing. I just wanted to check your condition, and everything seems fine," he reassured her.
His answer, which seed to show genuine care for her, made Angelica shy as she lowered her head. His attention and care were a new experience for her, as this was the first ti any man, aside from her father, had acted this way toward her.
anwhile, Aldrian continued to think about his experint on ’creation.’
"If the death laws are the ones that cause the end of creation, then clearly, the life laws are what bring creation into being. But how do I comprehend life laws ?" From his current hypothesis, his comprehension of the death laws, which is the end of everything, can also be applied to their opposite—the life laws.
If his understanding of death laws was that every being, whether with a soul or without, would eventually et their end in one way or another—essentially "death"—then the creation of anything, whether with a soul or not, could be considered "life."
A forgemaster once forged a sword, then they essentially gave that sword a "life," but it would face "death" if the sword were to break.
A husband and wife, indulging in intimacy, bring a child into the world, which is the sa as a form of creating "life." If the child dies, that is "death."
Soone concocting an unknown elixir from many ingredients essentially gives "life" to the elixir, but it ets "death" once swallowed by soone.
Aldrian then closed his eyes, sensing sothing inside his mind. He did not miss it. He instantly recognized this as a state of comprehension. He felt as though he was on the verge of understanding sothing from this new laws, yet he still felt sothing was missing—sothing personal, sothing unique to him.
Angelica, sensing the sudden change in Aldrian’s bearing and aura, was stunned. What had happened to him? After trying to sense his body, her eyes widened.
"This is comprehension state!"
Just a mont ago, he had been talking to her, but now it seed like he was entering a state of comprehension, based on what she could sense. His aura was fluctuating, and the energy around him was congregating around him.
She was truly shocked by how effortlessly he had entered the comprehension state. From her experience, entering such a state required a supportive environnt and a serene atmosphere to help the cultivator focus. But Aldrian, after just speaking with her, had seemingly entered this state with ease. A state that important for any cultivator seeking to raise their comprehension to greater heights, which also benefited their cultivation process.
Angelica continued to watch Aldrian as his aura fluctuated and the energy around him responded.
Inside Aldrian’s mind and mindscape, he kept his eyes closed as he repeatedly focused on what he had found possible for his own comprehension of the life laws. He had already touched the essence of it, but he still felt sothing was missing—sothing special, sothing that would show the life laws could work according to his will, his intent.
"I’ve grasped what I believe is the aning of life itself, but there’s still sothing missing that would make my life laws unique to . Hmm..." Aldrian exhaled as he thought, then a few monts later, realization hit him.
"How could I forget to consider my golden energy in my comprehension? That’s the crucial elent in all of this. The golden energy is an all-encompassing energy that acts according to my will. It can be the dium that creates sothing from nothing. Without it, my life laws would be limited compared to what I’ve envisioned in my mind."
He then tried imagining his golden energy and the laws of life, combining them inside his mind according to his will. His mind worked at its maximum capacity, envisioning the golden energy shaping sothing with the laws of life. His comprehension deepened, and finally, he felt sothing stirring within his soul and body.
He saw a different color of energy appear inside his dantian, beside his golden energy. It was a white-colored energy that quickly disappeared, swallowed by the golden energy. He was now certain that this was his own life laws, and he felt a surge of excitent because he had finally done it!
Unbeknownst to him, still deep in his own "world," his real body exuded white energy that began to affect the outside world. The people around felt more spirited and rejuvenated. The plants and birds seed to respond with happiness, the tree branches swaying as if blown by the wind, and the birds flying toward the carriage where Aldrian was.
This caused Angelica to be shocked, as the closest person to him. The aura and energy she felt from Aldrian were pure, containing the power of positivity. She could sense it had a powerful healing effect, or sothing similar.
She didn’t know what kind of laws Aldrian had comprehended, but she believed they were extraordinary laws that she didn’t understand.
A few monts later, Aldrian opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Angelica’s shocked expression. He smiled at her.
"What’s wrong? Why are you shocked?" he asked.
Hearing him, Angelica cald herself and then smiled.
"Congratulations on successfully comprehending sothing. I can feel that this is sothing extraordinary."
"Thank you. Indeed, this is extraordinary, and it will be very useful in the future," he replied, looking at Angelica with a warm gaze. He was excited—he could finally try to fix her shortcomings and couldn’t wait to attempt it later.
But then a question popped into his mind. He spread his senses outside the carriage and found nothing strange, except that all living beings seed to be affected by his new comprehension. He confusedly extended his senses toward the sky but still found nothing.
"Is there no Heavenly tribulation after I’ve comprehended the life laws?"
