Chapter 1105: The Law of Entropy Increase in the Myriad Heavens has been broken!

~8 min read 1,431 words

Seeing Yun Shen currently needs the power of rules to help him suppress this rotting flesh.

When that power of rules pressed down upon the rotting flesh—or rather, the remains of the World-Remnant Beast—it did indeed suppress the creature's restless, immortal, and indestructible nature.

As expected, even if it is only a prototype, this is ultimately a World Rule, capable of producing an effect on a World-Remnant Beast composed of World Origin!

However, Seeing Yun Shen could also feel that the creature was struggling with all its might, though it was still far from the level where it could break free.

"I wonder if this can suppress an Abyss-level World-Remnant Beast."

Seeing Yun Shen frowned. To ensure stability for the future, he decided that upon returning, he would have Jiang Lan adjust the offensive against Abyssal creatures, trying as much as possible not to let those nine Bottomless Abysses disappear simultaneously.

Although he did not know how many World-Remnant Beasts would emerge in the end, Seeing Yun Shen still hoped to deal with them one by one to prevent any mishaps.

Seeing Yun Shen turned and left, preparing to spend some time in the Time Food Treasury to see if time acceleration could help him in devouring the World-Remnant Beast.

Meanwhile, many of the surrounding reconnaissance troops and items had discovered the entire process of "Wu Xiangning" taking action.

Especially that display of devouring power; the commotion was quite large, and it was clear at a glance that she was absorbing the power of the World-Remnant Beast remains.

And finally, the fact that the World-Remnant Beast remains disappeared on the spot made people inevitably think that she had devoured them entirely.

Although it sounded a bit absurd, the process they witnessed was exactly like that.

None of them had any intention of communicating with each other, and they all reported the situation to their respective Lords.

Thus, this rumor began to spread by word of mouth among the Lords.

Even in the regional channel, rumors began to circulate that the Human Taboo, Wu Xiangning, was actually capable of devouring World-Remnant Beast remains.

"What the hell? Even the great experts of my Taotie race cannot devour World-Remnant Beast remains. A human can? Who are you trying to fool?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Since ancient times, no one has ever been able to completely eliminate World-Remnant Beast remains!"

"Speaking of which, if Wu Xiangning devours the power of a World-Remnant Beast like that, won't she turn into a World-Remnant Beast herself?"

"I once read an ancient text—I don't know if it was fabricated—that said a human powerhouse once completely eliminated a World-Remnant Beast, but the method was never passed down..."

The dungeon channel was filled with all sorts of talk; the vast majority of Lords did not believe that Wu Xiangning could devour World-Remnant Beast remains.

Although most Lords had never heard the name of World-Remnant Beasts before, after the popularization by Lords of other races over the past few days, they had learned a great deal of relevant knowledge.

World-Remnant Beasts are like the manifestation of "entropy increase" in the Myriad Heavens and Worlds. World-Remnant Beasts constantly increase, and they are immortal and indestructible, meaning the Myriad Heavens and Worlds will constantly tend toward chaos and disorder.

The existence of the Ruins of the Old Days is to manage this chaos and disorder, acting as a garbage disposal station for the Myriad Heavens and Worlds, making the disordered orderly.

Yet in reality, even so, the Myriad Heavens and Worlds still cannot escape the Law of Entropy Increase.

The total quantity of World-Remnant Beast remains is still increasing day and night, meaning that even with the existence of the Ruins of the Old Days, the Myriad Heavens and Worlds are only delaying the speed of entropy increase, not achieving entropy decrease.

It is not as if no one has tried to devour World-Remnant Beast remains; experts like those of the Taotie race, who have comprehended the Dao of Devouring, are everywhere, yet they have no way to deal with World-Remnant Beast remains.

This is why basically no one believes Wu Xiangning succeeded in devouring World-Remnant Beast remains. If even the powerhouses of the Myriad Races and the World Will cannot do it, by what right could you, Wu Xiangning, do it?

Either someone is deliberately spreading rumors, or it is simply a misunderstanding.

……

Inside the Time Food Treasury.

"Does this count as half a success?"

Seeing Yun Shen muttered to himself.

Under a time flow rate of one thousand times, Seeing Yun Shen attempted to devour the World-Remnant Beast remains and found that it was indeed effective.

However, the only part that was effective was the devouring of the Life Origin—the portion of energy that Wu Xiangning's 【Devouring Furnace】 could absorb.

As for the World Origin contained within the World-Remnant Beast remains, it was being devoured by Seeing Yun Shen at one-thousandth the speed of the external devouring.

Seeing Yun Shen frowned slightly, unsure whether he should continue cultivating in the Time Food Treasury.

After thinking for a long time, a question suddenly arose in Seeing Yun Shen's mind.

World-Remnant Beasts do not seem to be composed entirely of World Origin; they are also a form of life, which is why they possess Life Origin.

If he were to devour all of the Life Origin and only World Origin remained, could it still turn back into a World-Remnant Beast?

Once this doubt was born, it spiraled out of control.

Seeing Yun Shen decided that practice is the sole criterion for testing truth; he would go into seclusion for a period to see what the result would be.

In any case, given the combat power of this Disaster-level World-Remnant Beast, it was no different from fish on a chopping block in front of him.

Time ticked away, second by second, and Seeing Yun Shen could clearly feel how immense the benefits were for both himself and Wu Xiangning.

The quality of the Eternal Divine Beast blood he usually devoured was indeed very high, but it was actually specifically diluted by He Yun and the others; otherwise, it would be extremely strenuous to devour, and it would be better to just devour Mythical-level flesh and blood.

Seeing Yun Shen compared the conversion efficiency after devouring, and found that devouring the remains of this World-Remnant Beast was much more satisfying than devouring Eternal Divine Beast blood!

Disaster-level corresponds to Legendary-level, which is exactly Seeing Yun Shen's current talent level, isn't it?

Devouring between the same level is much easier.

Moreover, as a World-Remnant Beast, it is inherently more... "advanced" than ordinary living beings?

Let's call it advanced for now; at least Seeing Yun Shen felt quite satisfied devouring it.

It felt a bit like the protein in an insect being five times that of beef; of course, this is not to say that insects are more advanced than cows.

"At this pace, as long as I can keep devouring World-Remnant Beast remains, Wu Xiangning will definitely be able to advance to Mythical before the dungeon ends!"

Seeing Yun Shen felt eager to try, inexplicably sensing the opportunity for Wu Xiangning to advance to Mythical.

To advance to Mythical talent, simple accumulation of foundation is indeed useful, but the further one goes, the more limited its use becomes.

It's like a discount-hunting app; the further you go, the smaller the amount you get, and whether you get what you want depends entirely on luck and the platform's conscience.

The lower limit of Mythical-level talent is already 2.5 times the upper limit of Legendary-level talent; the difficulty of successfully advancing is very high.

Many people have worked hard for thousands of years, only to remain stagnant, unable to make any progress.

To put it in metaphysical terms, it is because the fate has not yet arrived.

Like Lan En and Philippa relying on devouring Dragon Blood Orchids to advance to Mythical, it looks like they are relying on the medicinal power to force an advancement, but this is actually a kind of opportunity, or method, for advancement.

This method is not very effective for the human race, but for their Dragon-man race of the Blood Scale Realm, it can be called a *deus ex machina*.

If one can sense the opportunity for a breakthrough, there is a very high probability of successfully advancing!

(PS: Begging for votes in October! The red envelopes from last month have already been sent! I hope to reach the top 30 of the Gold List this month too; I've dropped to 31 now...)
