Chapter 223: Mutual Learning: The World Rule Exchange Meeting

With the Fairy Queen resurrected and Jerry's martial soul returned to his body, Jerry is finally complete.

Previously, the Fairy Queen treated Jerry's martial soul as her body; as long as it had not returned to Jerry's body, Jerry's body remained incomplete.

At first, Jerry's strength was not yet powerful enough to perceive this difference.

Ever since his entire body reached an Energy-like State and his Divine Sense reached the limit of the current world, he had constantly felt that his body was missing something.

Jerry himself had checked many times, and the only thing he could think of was that his martial soul was not within his body.

Humans in this world all undergo Spirit Awakening; this is a basic World Rule.

Jerry arrived via soul transmigration, and his body originally belongs to this world, so his body is still subject to the restrictions of the World Rule.

This kind of restriction is, of course, only superficial; the interior of his body is not restricted, which is why Cultivation within Jerry's body is easy to break through.

Previously, it was likely the Fairy Queen's Divine Soul that restricted the martial soul; ever since the Fairy Queen's Divine Soul departed, Jerry's martial soul also began to undergo changes.

The martial soul began to crazily absorb energy, then slowly grew larger, and finally merged with Jerry's entire body.

After the fusion, Jerry finally felt that his body was completely under his control.

The sense of lack in his body from before also vanished.

Previously, many Rules were barely at the entry level, and trying to continue comprehending them felt very difficult; now, Jerry feels that all the Rules have become clear.

After reaching Cultivation to God Level, one comes into contact with Rules; the direction of subsequent Cultivation is no longer soul power, but the degree of mastery over Rules.

The Fairy Queen is also at God Level, and it is unknown how many Rules she has mastered; it is the perfect time to let her be tested.

After explaining the situation to the Fairy Queen, the Fairy Queen also cooperated with Jerry's test.

The Fairy Queen stepped into the testing instrument, and Jerry hurriedly activated the device.

"Beep, testing begins!"

"Beep, testing complete; please choose voice broadcast or print data."

"Voice broadcast."

"Confirmed; voice broadcast, broadcasting begins."

"Name: Fairy Queen"

"Soul: Fairy"

"Race: Fairy"

"Martial Soul: None"

"Body Strength: Divine Body Third Layer Energy Body"

"Divine Sense | Divine Sense | Spirit Power: 1.08 million points"

"Mastered Rules: Wood Attribute Rule (Perfect 100%), Water Attribute Rule (Perfect 100%), Earth Attribute Rule (Perfect 100%), Light Attribute Rule (Perfect 100%), Creation Attribute Rule (Proficient 30%)"

"God Position: God of Plants"

"Voice broadcast complete; print voice broadcast results?"

"Print."

Seeing the Fairy Queen's test results, Jerry was truly jealous to death inside.

Although the Fairy Queen has not mastered as many types of Rules as he and the Silver Dragon King, four of her Rules are at 100%. These four Rules are all related to plants; no wonder her God Position is the God of Plants.

He himself only has the Wood Attribute Rule mastered at 100%, and that was by sharing a Musuxing God Position with the Fairy Queen; compared to the Fairy Queen, it is too low-level.

No wonder the Fairy Queen is so powerful; just based on these four Rules, everything is explained.

The Fairy Queen's resurrection this time was a blessing in disguise; her Body Strength reached the Divine Body Third Layer Energy Body, and her Spirit Power also reached the limit of the current world. It can be said that the current Jerry is not necessarily the Fairy Queen's match.

Jerry, the Fairy Queen, and the Silver Dragon King—there are now three God Level powerhouses in the Star Dou Great Forest who have mastered Rules, and Jerry is preparing for them to learn from each other.

After explaining the situation to the Silver Dragon King, the Silver Dragon King suddenly felt that Jerry's idea was excellent.

Gods of the past all went to comprehend Rules alone; one by one, they were arrogant and proud, disdaining to communicate at all. Without communication, there can be no mutual progress; this is also the reason why the speed of Cultivation slows down after reaching Cultivation to God Level.

The World Consciousness contacted Jerry at this time, telling Jerry that if they were to communicate, she could also participate, and she also told Jerry one more secret.

As long as Rules are comprehended in this world, these Rules are automatically synchronized to her; therefore, the stronger the Rules comprehended by people within the world, the stronger the synchronization to her, and thus her control over the world is also stronger.

So that's how it is; no wonder she is eager for everyone in this world to engage in Cultivation; the more Rules others comprehend, the stronger she becomes.

Moreover, the World Consciousness told Jerry that only those who have comprehended Rules can communicate; if those who have not comprehended Rules hear the Rules, it is highly likely their state of mind will collapse, severing their path of Cultivation.

How is this the same as a Dao Heart collapse? Knowing knowledge far above one's own realm in advance easily affects one's state of mind.

Jerry brought the Silver Dragon King and the Fairy Queen to his Shamo Jidi, and after confirming there were no living creatures in the vicinity, he set up a Barrier.

Arriving at the Xiulianchang of the base, he took out four very comfortable lazy sofas and many exquisite small snacks; only after everything was ready did the World Consciousness manifest.

After introducing her to the Fairy Queen, the Fairy Queen was also astonished; she had heard of the World Consciousness before, but had never seen the World Consciousness manifest. It seems this exchange meeting Jerry prepared is very important.

"Everyone is here, so our Rule exchange meeting now begins. I have printed the data for the three of us; I have no way to test the World Consciousness's data, so let us communicate first, and if there are any missing parts, the World Consciousness can supplement them for me."

"Good." "Good." "Good."

After everyone agreed, Jerry prepared to start speaking first.

"I have mastered the basic eight Rules: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Thunder, Light, and Darkness. Silver Dragon King, your God Position is God of Elements, but I have looked at your data, and you have not mastered the Metal Attribute Rule, nor has the Fairy Queen mastered the Metal Attribute Rule, so I will speak about the Metal Attribute Rule first."

"Metal Attribute..."

As Jerry finished speaking about the Metal Attribute, the Silver Dragon King and the Fairy Queen fell into an Awakening.

Jerry's Metal Attribute is only at the 10% entry level, so he did not say much, and the Silver Dragon King and the Fairy Queen are not ordinary people, so they comprehended it very quickly.

"World Consciousness, my Metal Attribute is only at the entry level; do you have anything to add here?" Jerry looked at the World Consciousness and asked humbly; his goal this time was very clear: to fleece the wool.

"Yes, the Asura God's mastery of the Metal Attribute is 100%, so his attacks are quite powerful; I can explain it to you, but how much you comprehend depends on yourselves."

The Asura God's Metal Attribute mastery is 100%; no wonder he could split the Dragon God in two.

Following the explanation of the World Consciousness, the three of them gained an increasingly deep understanding of the Rules.

Everyone's attention was focused on the explanation of the World Consciousness; no one noticed any abnormalities in the surroundings.

The Crystal Ball inside Jerry's body, however, quietly began to change; as the World Consciousness explained more and more Rules, the Metal Attribute within the Crystal Ball began to undergo changes.

Several people were all comprehending Rules, and manifestations of these Rules would appear around their bodies; if one observed carefully, they would discover that the Rule manifestations around Jerry's body were far more numerous than those around the Fairy Queen and the Silver Dragon King.

A single Metal Attribute Rule alone was explained for a full four months; after the World Consciousness finished speaking, seeing that the three were still in a state of Awakening, it did not disturb them.

The World Consciousness waved a hand, and the time in the Xiulianchang changed; now, one day in the outside world was 1,000 days here, which was the maximum extent the World Consciousness could achieve.

Because the Time Rule is very difficult to comprehend, from ancient times to the present, only one god has comprehended the entry level.

However, because that god's strength was too low and his lifespan limited, he himself did not realize this problem.

He kept Time Acceleration on constantly; although his combat power was very strong, in the end, because his lifespan was insufficient, he played his own life away.

As long as one has not left the Douluo Planet, there will be a limit to one's lifespan; this is also one of the reasons why those gods have to run to the God Realm.

The World Consciousness only changed the flow of time; it did not stop time.

If time were stopped, one could only communicate within that area, and wanting to do other things would be impossible.

Because if time is stopped, the soul power, Rules, and everything else inside would all be stopped.

If everything is stopped, how could one still Cultivate, and how could one still comprehend Rules?

As for Jerry, the Silver Dragon King, and the Fairy Queen, the three people who broke the world's limits, their lifespans were basically equivalent to infinite, so the World Consciousness was not worried about their lifespan issues at all.

The Time Rule has its pros and cons, but it is also possible that the World Consciousness's mastery of the Time Rule is not profound enough.

Time passed without measure, and the three of them all finished their comprehension.

The World Consciousness told them that it had used the Time Rule; their comprehension this time took fifty years, while less than nineteen days had passed outside.

Truly, there are no years in Cultivation; upon hearing the World Consciousness speak of the drawbacks of the Time Rule, Jerry also felt a lingering fear.

How many fifty-year periods does an average person have? In the Douluo World, the lifespan of a Spirit Master is generally low.

However, these fifty years were not in vain; the Metal Attribute Rule reached 80% Great Accomplishment, and the Silver Dragon King and the Fairy Queen were about the same; the rest will need to be comprehended slowly by themselves when they use it in the future.

Looking at it this way, Jerry's 100% mastery of the Wood Attribute was a huge bargain taken from the Fairy Queen.

Next, they began to exchange Cultivation insights on other Rules.

Time flew by, and one year in the outside world passed; a thousand years had already passed inside the Small Courtyard, and all four individuals had seen great improvements.

Because Jerry's thinking was relatively broad and he thought of far more than the others, after each attribute reached its limit, Jerry could always deduce a bit more, drawing inferences about other cases from one instance.

Now everyone had reached the limit of their comprehension, and there was nothing left to exchange; this Rule exchange meeting also came to an end.

Compared to before, the three people's control over the Rules was now like heaven and earth.

The Rules Jerry now controls: Metal Attribute Rule (80% Great Accomplishment), Wood Attribute Rule (100% Perfection), Water Attribute Rule (80% Great Accomplishment), Fire Attribute Rule (80% Great Accomplishment), Earth Attribute Rule (80% Great Accomplishment), Thunder Attribute Rule (80% Great Accomplishment), Darkness Attribute Rule (80% Great Accomplishment), Light Attribute Rule (80% Great Accomplishment), Time Rule (20% Entry Level), Space Attribute Rule (50% Small Accomplishment), Creation Attribute Rule (50% Small Accomplishment), Destruction Attribute Rule (50% Small Accomplishment).

Compared to before, it has improved by a whole lot.

Because everyone was exchanging together, what they mastered was about the same; although it was an exchange, the mastery of a Rule could only reach 80% Great Accomplishment at most.

The Fairy Queen mastered four Rules to 100% Perfection, but the final 20% could not be achieved just by exchanging; it still required using the Rules more and slowly gaining insights.

Therefore, one can exchange before a Rule reaches Great Accomplishment; after Great Accomplishment, it depends on the individual.

The World Consciousness also gained quite a bit this time; it had originally only mastered 10% of the Time Rule, but it was forcibly pushed to 20% by Jerry, and he even deduced the usage of Time Deceleration.

Jerry actually thought of many things regarding time, such as Time Reversal, but it was not successful, which is a bit of a pity.

If he could comprehend Time Reversal, the next time he saw Tang San, he would use a Time Reversal on him, sending him directly back to when he was just born; let's see how he could jump around then.

As for the more profound time travel, it requires being used together with the Space Rule; Jerry only had a concept, but no practical method of comprehension.

To comprehend it, Jerry felt he would at least have to wait until both the Time and Space Rules reached Great Accomplishment.

Moreover, changing history easily triggers a series of butterfly effects, which Jerry would not want to see; therefore, Jerry only thought about time travel in his own mind.

As for Space, Creation, and Destruction, the World Consciousness had previously mastered the same amount as the Silver Dragon King, only 30%, but this time it was also pushed to 50% by Jerry.

The 50% Space Rule allowed everyone to master five skills: Space Teleportation, Kongjian Yasu, Space Locking, Space Overlap, and Space Cutting; all of them are very powerful skills.

As for Creation and Destruction, the two Rules complement each other and verify one another.

Although both were comprehended to 50%, they only comprehended some simple skills, such as using the Creation Rule to comprehend changing the shape of living things and changing the shape of objects.

Jerry tried it out; a wooden table was changed into a wooden stool, and a peach tree was directly turned into an apple tree.

Changing the wooden table into a wooden stool only changed its shape, and it could be done by consuming a bit of Jerry's Spirit Power and energy.

But turning a peach tree into an apple tree is a change of species; besides consuming Jerry's Spirit Power and energy, he also felt that a portion of his own life force was consumed.

Just turning the peach tree into an apple tree consumed nearly 80% of Jerry's Spirit Power and energy; it seems this skill cannot be used lightly.

As for the Destruction Rule, with 50% control, he only comprehended one continuous damage skill: attaching the Destruction Rule to an attack and driving it into the opponent's body; if the opponent has not comprehended the Destruction Rule, they cannot shake it off and will be continuously damaged.

As for other Rules, there was no way; the World Consciousness was born too late, and many gods ran to the God Realm before, not giving her a chance to synchronize; otherwise, her control over the world would not be so low.

However, the regrettable part this time was that none of the four people comprehended the Death Rule; even though Jerry had various records about death from his past life, it was not like that when he truly tried to comprehend it.

It made Jerry unsure even now whether this world actually has a Death Rule.

Of course, the Death Rule exists; there is no world without a Death Rule, it is just very difficult to comprehend.

What exactly is death?

It cannot be clearly stated or explained.

The Fairy Queen also had no concept of death, even though she had died once.

But the Fairy Queen said that she only had physical death, while her Divine Soul remained forever; as long as the opportunity was right, she could be resurrected; although it was difficult, there was a chance.

How could Jerry not know this? In the original work, under the World Rules, the protagonist group could all be resurrected; if he could not comprehend the Death Rule, he would have no way to perfect the World Rules, and even if he killed Tang San and the others in the future, it would not mean they would not be resurrected.

That unreliable thing, the Crystal Ball, has a method to kill gods, but it is not under Jerry's control; when the time comes, if it does not collect Tang San's Divine Soul, wouldn't he be doing useless work?

But what Jerry did not know was that the Crystal Ball had undergone great changes over these years; while Jerry and the others were comprehending the Rules, the Crystal Ball was not idle either, absorbing many Rules.
