Chapter 442 Impact on the Eternal Sun! The Legendary Nature of Truth! The Gate of Limits
"Is this the Flower of All Laws?"
Lu Yu stroked his chin, examining the sacred object of the Church of the Eye of Heaven with great interest.
In appearance, it is a plant with an upright stem and leaves that stretch out in the style of an ink painting, but the petals in the middle are extremely strange. They are countless dense ancient characters that are constantly changing, combining, and colliding, sparking a pale flame of knowledge that burns fiercely.
In the firelight, seventeen mysterious rainbow-colored eyes opened and closed repeatedly, emitting a fragrance similar to that of books.
Because he was suppressed in place by the little spider's oppressive aura and could not move, he could only greedily look around.
It's less a flower and more a peculiar life form.
Legend has it that the Eye of Heaven is a great being that appeared when the laws of heaven collided with the primordial flame, symbolizing knowledge itself.
As a product of the laws of nature, the Flower of All Laws naturally inherits some of its characteristics.
When you stare at it, you can hear an invisible voice whispering in your ear, expounding ancient knowledge and attracting you to read and learn.
In this world, knowledge is power.
Extraordinary knowledge is essentially an explanation and interpretation of rules, and it contains spiritual power. The higher the level of power, the less it is affected.
It is very difficult for them to develop a will, and if they do, it will be extremely terrifying, distorting their very nature. Not only will they be unable to teach others the knowledge they were fed before, but they will also actively hunt down individuals with advanced knowledge.
Most of the time, it disguises itself as prey, spreading a special fragrance to help people gain knowledge.
However, if you read for a long time, you will inevitably become addicted to it and unable to extricate yourself, and eventually it will steal the knowledge and memories from your mind.
The target will permanently lose the memory of being devoured, and no matter how talented the target is, it cannot be made up for by relearning.
It left behind an unhealable wound.
Losing too much will create a special "knowledge loop," turning you into a fool who is unable to understand the world, matter, or the laws of nature.
It conforms to the balance law of the mother river.
You have to give something in return for something you gain.
When the Eye of Heaven sect was still around, such incidents of "knowledge harming people" would occur every now and then. Because the frequency was too high, they never changed their ways despite repeated warnings.
Therefore, many people speculate that the so-called gardeners... are actually just reserve fertilizer.
Because it collapsed before the alliance was established, no one bothered to dig up this dark history.
Moreover, the Flower of All Dharmas needs to be nourished with high-level, non-repeatable knowledge in order to give birth to the "Eye of Recognition of Dharma," which is the eye within these flames of knowledge, and is actually its petal.
By plucking two eyes, refining them through a secret technique, and then replacing them with one's own eyes, one can create the [Dharma Eye] pupil technique, which can enhance the casting speed and power of spell-casting pets.
If the replacement is repeated more than five times, the probability of mutation will increase significantly, but there is a very small chance of the talent "Devour Magic" appearing, which can shatter the magical spirit of spell-type pets, which can be translated as the ability to clear the mana bar.
Become the nemesis of mages.
Some members of the Heavenly Principle Church have succeeded and become prominent figures in the Knowledge Blessed Society, but due to the high level of danger, very few people would do it.
The Flower of All Laws must have at least sixteen petals to be considered mature.
If there are too few petals, it cannot be used as material for the ceremony.
Each new plant requires the resources of one or two top-tier powers to be fully utilized.
Once the Flower of All Laws matures, it will produce 1-2 seeds, significantly increasing the difficulty of watering it.
Lu Yu originally thought that the Knowledge Favor Society would lose face because of him, and would argue for a while, or give immature larvae, inferior products watered by filthy knowledge, or even be prepared to give only one seed.
Unexpectedly... right after the end of the distribution of the Nation Destruction Fund, the other side quickly sent over a mature sacred object. Although it didn't have a seed, the smoothness of it all made him somewhat uneasy.
Is this a gesture of goodwill? Or is it due to pressure from the alliance, and a hidden agenda?
Who cares?
Lu Yu chuckled to himself. Thinking too much was less important than improving his own strength.
If he were the true king, the entire alliance would have to consider his attitude.
After the Flower of All Laws arrived, its burning eyes greedily gazed at the surrounding creatures, yearning to acquire knowledge.
However, intimidated by the powerful aura, they dared not move freely.
"Xiu Ren, does this guy like hunting wise men the most?" Mouse suddenly asked while he was thinking.
"Theoretically, yes." Lu Yu nodded, watching the mouse constantly moving closer to the Flower of Myriad Laws, and asked疑惑地问道, "Why do you ask this?"
"No, it's just that I've always loved learning and exploring new and interesting things," I said righteously.
But what I was really thinking was...
Since the Flower of All Laws will frantically pursue individuals who possess vast knowledge and wisdom.
He would feign casual passing by, revealing his weakness, which would definitely provoke a frenzied attack from the opponent. Then, he would suppress it with the Crimson Corrosion King Tree, turn around gracefully, and coldly toss out a sentence:
"The wisdom of mice will overwhelm you."
In this way, Spider Sister and the others can intuitively feel that they are the pinnacle of the team's wisdom.
See? The Flower of All Laws has attacked me!
The mouse immediately took action and actively approached the Flower of All Laws.
However, the mouse paced back and forth three times without being attacked, and the Flower of All Laws didn't even glance at it.
"Could it be that it's been scared out of its wits?" Mouse pondered, thinking that under the watchful eyes of a group of powerful figures, the Flower of Myriad Laws probably wouldn't dare to move.
So it extended its claws to shield itself from some of the pressure, but the Flower of Myriad Laws still didn't react, and even moved closer to Egg and Paper Knight.
Now the rat was in a hurry and took the initiative to extend its hand so that the other party could absorb its knowledge. Anyway, as the [Crimson King of the Free Demon of Other Transformation], it could cut off the interference at any time and was not worried about any aftereffects.
Click!
However, in the face of its proactive contact, the Flower of All Laws finally reacted. The eye in the flame of knowledge cracked open, revealing a gaping maw of abyss, from which countless tentacles spread.
"It worked!" Mouse exclaimed excitedly, just about to show off a series of smooth and skillful maneuvers, and then...
She was immediately vomited all over with rainbow-colored slime, and then the Flower of Myriad Laws roared and cursed as it distanced itself, as if avoiding the filth.
Mouse: "???"
"roar!"
Egg, standing nearby, laughed so hard he almost fell over. He used one paw to stop the Flower of Myriad Laws from approaching. He had intended to wake Red Hare, but was blocked by an electromagnetic barrier.
Opening its eyes, it saw that Red Hare was in good condition and had not entered standby mode. Two mechanical bottles floated above its head, connected to itself, continuously injecting black molten oil.
Red Hare looked smug. It had recently become smarter, using scorching oil to modify some of its mechanical beast servants in advance, putting them into a state of rage, and then using them as external power banks.
That way, you can watch the hamsters have fun the whole time!
"The mouse is... pure." The Paper Knight shook his head.
High emotional intelligence: purity.
Low emotional intelligence: They spend all their free time indulging in lewd thoughts and have no access to useful knowledge.
It is a security target that the Flower of All Laws will never target.
The mouse could have tolerated it, but when it saw that its clones were almost bitten by the Flower of Myriad Laws, it finally couldn't hold back anymore.
What do you mean?
The mouse rushed up to tear the rotten flower apart, but was stopped by the little spider. The spider wiped its body with a towel, dried its hair, and gave it ten bags of potato chips before finally giving the spider some face.
As for the reason, the mouse figured it out: it must be that it sacrificed too much wisdom when it entered the spirit-corrosion state some time ago, and it still hasn't recovered.
The hamster has sacrificed so much for this family.
Thankfully, Spider Sister understands!
Lu Yu rolled his eyes, but didn't continue to torment the rat. Instead, he manipulated the airflow to capture the Flower of Myriad Laws. Sensing the rat's greedy gaze, he said softly:
Want knowledge? I'll give it to you!
As he spoke, countless tendrils of truth spread out from the depths of his pupils, converging into a mysterious key.
Since the more eyes the Flower of Myriad Laws has, the better, and Lu Yu has no shortage of knowledge, it's a good opportunity to improve its quality.
Unexpectedly, the Flower of All Laws shrank into a ball and trembled the moment it saw the Eye of Truth, even surpassing its instinct to devour knowledge.
Moreover, Lu Yu himself felt an indescribable hunger, as if he had seen some delicious food that could strengthen him.
However, Lu Yu could sense that this wasn't aimed at the Eye of All Laws, but rather...
Its natural ecology!
"The dissolution of the Church of the Eye of Heaven's Principle was due to the sudden disappearance of the great being behind it, who no longer responded to any prayers or sacrifices of knowledge... Could it be related to the truth?"
Lu Yu seemed to be deep in thought. Even a great being who occupies the source can hunt down strong individuals on the same path. In the face of taboos that transcend everything, a great being is no different from a domesticated cow or sheep.
Is the eye of justice hiding somewhere?
"It seems like we could learn more about the Knowledge and Favor Society; maybe we'll find something unexpected!"
Lu Yu smiled, then forcibly infused the Flower of Myriad Laws with all sorts of knowledge to nourish it.
Within the Church of Heavenly Reason, it is like a glutton, never satisfied, but before the almost omniscient and omnipotent eye of truth, it is merely a small puddle.
Even if the access level is not high enough to see high-level information, the information of the giants and below covers the past and the future, and can be described as endless.
It quickly caused the Flower of All Laws to grow new eyes, surpassing the record of the Heavenly Principle Church's twenty-three [Eyes of Law Recognition] in the blink of an eye.
Twenty-nine...
Thirty-nine...
Forty-five...
It didn't stop until there were forty-nine eyes.
It's not that we lack knowledge, but rather that the other party is too full.
"So bad!" Lu Yu was exasperated, but the Eye of All Laws was completely overwhelmed.
Click click click!
The flames of knowledge burned fiercely, transforming into a vast pillar of fire that rose and continuously tempered these "eyes of knowledge." Golden tears began to roll from these eyes, gathering together like adhesive.
It quickly transformed into a giant golden eye, located at the center of the Flame of Knowledge. Dense golden beams of light grew around the eye, slowly swirling, and mysterious vine patterns spread from the pupil, forming a pattern resembling a "door".
The overall pattern is somewhat similar to the Eye of Truth, but calling it a low-end version of the Eye of Truth is not quite right; it's more like a pirated version of the Eye of Fallacy.
However, it also exudes a vast aura of rules, elucidating the natural order of the world!
It was transformed directly from a material used in a legendary ritual into a legendary quality.
【The Eye of Heavenly Principles: The Flower of Laws created by the Eye of Heavenly Principles is used to collect the principles of all things and imprint the foundation of all things. It needs to be nourished with a vast amount of knowledge in order to blossom and bear fruit.
Because of encountering the Lord of the Gate, he underwent a transformation through the nourishment of the Eye of Truth, stealing a portion of the rules of the Heavenly Path and transforming into legendary traits.
Those who follow the path of "Reason" can encompass it, master the power of Heavenly Reason, and manipulate it. They can accommodate more legendary qualities, but must withstand corresponding spiritual upheavals.
[Comment: Wherever the eye falls, there lies the law of nature!]
"It can accommodate more legendary traits, instead of two or three?" Lu Yu's gaze sharpened as he discovered the key information in the prompt.
The truth never reveals false information.
It would be incredibly difficult for others to accommodate even one person, but the Heavenly Principle Church managed to accommodate two, which is almost considered a legend.
As long as Lu Yu can withstand the impact of spirituality, he can accept it without restraint.
Legend has it that the essence of a thing is rules, and different combinations of rules can give rise to mysterious powers and ecosystems.
This is why countless people pursue the second trait.
This ability to exploit bugs is quite consistent with the characteristics of truth not adhering to logic and the existence of the foundation of all things.
Next, Lu Yu waited an extra day to help Egg and the others break through the final skill proficiency level. The promotion materials promised by the Alliance and the dark materials from the Dark Moon Merchant Guild were also successfully delivered.
The deliveryman was still Lao Luo, who was full of resentment because he hadn't invested in the "Nation Destruction Fund." He repeatedly told Lu Yu to make sure he got a copy.
Before leaving, he left Shi Weijun with a message.
It is said that after Lu Yu becomes a giant, he can be taken to a treasure vault of a foolish and rich man to choose a legendary trait.
Make him carefully consider which pet should be the first to break through!
For the first time, Lu Yu experienced what it meant to have a powerful backer. He thought to himself that the principal was quite arrogant, having to be so roundabout when giving gifts.
But who is this rich but foolish guy?
He can actually let his pets choose whatever they want!
At this point, only the materials for the legendary ritual of the Three Calamities Peacock remained to be acquired.
However, since Lu Yu already had a method, there was no rush.
"Next, it's time to start the promotions!"
Lu Yu murmured softly as he unlocked the shield of the Beast Taming Space.
next second...
The mother river's enthusiastic call surged in like a tsunami, quickly engulfing it as if it were being embraced.
It felt like I was about to be suffocated!
Faced with the changes in the world before him, Lu Yu returned to the deck of the Rancher, sailing on the second tributary of the Mother River—the chaotic and timeless Dark Sea.
In fact, after advancing to the Radiant Moon realm, Lu Yu often came in to explore the Mother River.
Unfortunately, even with the Saintess's buff, all one could gain were fragments of time that accelerated the accumulation of spiritual power by a few days or months.
I've almost never seen a fragment of time containing soul power!
What he lacks is soul power. With so many top-tier pets, celestial breath, and the supply from the ranch, his spiritual power is almost overflowing.
I'm always irritable when I wake up!
As for the boundary gates and rare treasures, I haven't even seen a trace of them. After a while, it naturally gets boring, so I just log in every day to check in.
Mother River, however, did not understand Lu Yu's departure. If he hadn't repeatedly refused, she probably would have wanted to stuff all the spiritual energy into him.
hum!
Lu Yu lit the spirit lamp on the Herdsman, dispelling the fog of cognition and illuminating a radius of 500 meters, providing an extremely wide field of vision.
You can see the changes in time within the chaotic dark sea, with numerous fragments of time drifting about, reflecting many terrifying and eerie figures.
There were even several terrifying black shadows, half of their bodies weak and half incredibly powerful, as if the past and future were pieced together, extremely distorted.
Even with Lu Yu's current strength, seeing their data sent chills down his spine.
It is definitely an existence above the level of an ecosystem master.
Fortunately, vision isn't solely determined by strength; otherwise, one would be hunted down to death.
So, Lu Yu carefully maneuvered the Herdsman around these native inhabitants of the Mother River, while the mouse covered its eyes, too afraid to look.
Finally, they arrived at an open area without any aberrations.
After ensuring there was no danger around, Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and consumed the super soul fruit that the Crimson Corrosion King Tree had condensed by devouring the souls of the entire Deer Snail clan.
Even those with exceptional talent need to prevent spiritual energy distortion and accumulate soul power over a long period to control their spirituality in order to advance to the level of a giant.
For Lu Yu, all he needed was one bite!
Click!
Lu Yu swallowed the Soul Fruit in one gulp, and in the next instant, a vast amount of soul power surged into him, flowing into his limbs and bones.
Flesh and blood give birth to the spirit, and the spirit constructs the soul!
The surging soul power caused Lu Yu's soul to swell. Accompanied by the influx of primal spiritual energy, he felt a strong soreness and began to expand endlessly, like a balloon that could burst at any moment.
hum!
Within the Beast Taming Space, the golden spiritual moon suddenly shone brightly, traversing the void and shining upon the soul, stabilizing the surging soul power and nurturing it.
The special effect of Holy Moon Crystal: Soul Nourishment!
Lu Yu's soul did not continue to expand, but the soul power within his body continued to grow, and his soul body directly transformed into an invisible furnace.
After repeated collisions and compressions, it actually formed a sphere similar to the sun, which then ignited, scorching the soul, followed by flesh and psychic energy. The intense pain caused him to groan and frown.
True gold is refined by fire!
It refers to using the process of spiritual advancement to temper all the impurities in oneself, and to fuse the spiritual, flesh and blood, and soul to forge "gold".
Of course, this doesn't refer to actual gold, but rather to the legendary nascent spirit core, which gathers one's own power into one.
Each person's spiritual origin is different and takes on different forms. Only by possessing it can one withstand the tempering of the rules after crossing the Gate of Eternity.
Once the legendary qualities are incorporated, the spiritual puzzle can transform, moving from the abstract to the concrete, and entering the form of a legendary creature.
Every action, every movement, embodies the might of Heaven.
The ability to freely connect to the laws of the world allows one to manifest divine power from thousands of miles away!
What has manifested here is the legendary Spirit Origin!
The giant thunderous face that appeared in Bianmu Town, the Jinchūriki of the Coffee Machine, is the legendary prototype of the Spirit Origin, capable of initial manifestation.
It's a pseudo-giant!
Is it because he lacks legendary traits? Or did the Mother River ritual fail? Or perhaps...?
Want to sneak away and drink coffee?
For Lu Yu, under the suppression of the ranch, the power of the trinity began to melt together methodically, constantly intertwining.
It lasted for more than half an hour.
A door-shaped psionic symbol slowly emerged, inscribed with countless ancient and mysterious runes, shimmering with the light of the path to truth.
Although Lu Yu didn't recognize the words, he understood their meaning and slowly read them aloud:
"The Gate of... Utter... Despair!"
The original "Mantra - Gate" instead resembled a key, slowly embedding itself within, as if to unlock it.

P.S.: Let me take a break and write 5,000 words to transition. I'm a bit tired. After the accelerated promotion, the game will be more like a grand scheme of things for big shots.
