True to the netizen’s suspicion, many disciples throughout the Outer Palace began making both minor and major breakthroughs in their cultivation.
Only roughly a tenth of the rfolk population practiced the [Divine Oceanheart Art], but those who attempted to comprehend or had achieved comprehension of the Water Law accounted for nearly every disciple.
After all, the Water Law was the principal law for seafolks.
Every being born of the sea and ocean possessed so innate affinity with water. As such, the Water Law was their principal law to comprehend.
If they couldn’t even understand the law aligned with their elental affinity, then they were less likely to succeed in any other law. Only a minority of seafolk were born with higher affinities in other elents.
Boom, boom, boom!
Within the Fishn Domain, the revitalized disciples of the Grand Chamber of Dilemma comprehended the Water Law, one after the other, triggering heavenly events in the skysea above the seafloor.
Powerful forces of the Water Law converged and stirred with varying movents.
So endlessly converged and amassed, producing the illusion of a secondary boundless ocean in the skysea, while others swirled in a repeating loop with fluidity and consistency, flowing constantly.
Another group of water forces simply revolved in a ring-like current, alternating between fast and slow flows: gentle when it’s slow and overwhelming when it’s surging.
There was also another group of water forces that alternated between stillness and motion.
Although nurous revitalized disciples in the Grand Chamber of Dilemma comprehended the Water Law, the principal concept they derived from the heavenly force of water varied.
The Concept of Boundlessness, the Dual Concept of Gentle and Strong Forces, the Concept of Fluidity, and the Dual Concept of Stillness and Motion were just a few examples of the concepts they had realized.
Naturally, the quickest disciples to comprehend the Water Law were those who had already had so minor accomplishnts.
So had flawed understandings, while others had incomplete understandings.
Regardless of their situation, they were able to discover the problem in their comprehension and refine it to completion with their new insights, allowing them to wield more powerful forces of the Water Law.
"Hahaha, I did it! I’ve finally comprehended the first level of the Water Law! I’ve been on the verge of reaching it for thousands of years, always short of that last step, and unable to take that final step further! I can’t believe the truth was actually so simple!"
"Don’t forget who you owe this achievent to! Without Lord Vaan’s unique insights, we might have wasted countless more years pondering such a simple truth!"
After the revitalized disciples achieved their breakthroughs, they rejoiced with hearty laughter and joy. Everyone who was stuck at that final step and unable to overco the bottleneck all felt overwheld with emotions.
That bottleneck had left them all despairing and questioning their own talents.
After they achieved enlightennt and reached the truth, they all felt incredulous, dumbfounded, and stupid for being stumped by such a simple answer for so long.
"Hahahaha! I really am stupid, treating sothing so simple as sothing so complex. Water is water, yet thinking of water as not water," a revitalized disciple uttered heartily and self-deprecatingly.
Although his words sounded foolish, it was the truth.
It was like being presented with a one plus one question in maths, and the students believed it was a tricky problem-solving question. Thus, they used their available thods to look for another answer, one that was not the number two.
From another perspective, it was like mastering a water spell with a level-ten difficulty, yet being unable to cast a level-one difficulty water spell.
Everyone found the situation quite ridiculous, though it was also hilarious.
Of course, none of them could be blad for this. They were simply unlucky for starting life in such a high-level world as the Myriad Sea God Palace.
A tower would not stand tall and firm if everything but the foundations were built.
Everything had to start from the ground up.
...
"Strange... Why haven’t we heard any news from the Hall of rit yet?" a rmaid disciple suddenly wondered after benefiting from Vaan’s lecture.
Once the question was raised, everyone around her also began having the sa doubts.
The Hall of rit was far too quiet.
Given the astonishing impact of Vaan’s lecture, he should have achieved an unprecedented feat, breaking countless records and earning him huge amounts of credit.
It was impossible for the people at the Hall of rit to stay quiet after discovering such a new record.
"Perhaps news of the feat has not spread because the people at the Hall of rit have purposely suppressed it? Or maybe the supervisor removed the new record before it was noticed by others?" another rmaid disciple guessed.
However, hardly anyone believed in such a possibility.
"Impossible. The Hall of rit’s system was jointly set up by the twelve Empyreans. It involves extrely powerful laws of high complexity and runs autonomously. It’s not possible for anyone to tamper with the records... unless it was one of the Empyreans."
"There’s no way the highly venerated Empyreans would pay attention to these matters, let alone act on them. It is far beneath their status and would only harm their prestige. Also, they would have to ask if the other Empyreans would agree to such a selfish action."
Countless disciples were currently benefiting from Vaan’s unique insights on the [Divine Oceanheart Art] and were becoming indebted to him.
Anyone who deprived him of his just rewards would likely anger all of heaven and earth.
As such, no one could see the possibility of an Empyrean acting against Vaan on this matter. After all, they might even incur so elusive karmic wrath. It didn’t seem worth it.
"But if that’s not the case, why hasn’t any news spread from the Hall of rit yet?"
"There’s no rush... It’s only been a few hours since Lord Vaan’s lecture ended. The number of people benefiting from it should still be increasing... Perhaps, the Hall of rit hasn’t finished tabulating Vaan’s feat?"
When everyone arrived at this conclusion, they couldn’t help but feel shocked.
As long as new disciples continue to view Vaan’s lecture on Pomposity and other sources shared by others, and benefit from them, the credit reward for Lord Vaan’s feat would continue to increase.
By the ti the Hall of rit finished tabulating Lord Vaan’s feat, wouldn’t he receive an astronomical amount of credits?!
If that were truly the case, Lord Vaan would ascend to the heavens in one step, becoming the wealthiest disciple outside the Core Palace! He would be set for life and would never be short on any resource!
"That’s... such a terrifying possibility! But, I’m equally excited to see it happen!" a rman disciple exclaid.
