Chapter 152: A Completely Different Path

The Myriad Elephant Tower seemed to plunge into the most terrifying cosmic black hole, a wildly ferocious swallowing force rained down upon it, pulling it away in an instant.

Zhou Yang, inside the tower, wore a grim expression.

Just when he thought he could reach safety, such a mishap occurred! He tried to control the Myriad Elephant Tower, but under that extreme ferocious swallowing force, the tower seemed completely out of control; no matter how he manipulated it, he could not make it stop.

Even he mobilized the newly restored World Force to cast the Qian Kun Secret Technique again, hoping to temporarily shield space-time.

However, the moment the Qian Kun World Force emerged, it was instantly shattered by that wildly ferocious swallowing force; the two are not even on the same level! "Where have I entered? Could this be some Absolute Prison Land?"

Zhou Yang kept himself calm, his gaze observing the outside world through the Myriad Elephant Tower.

What he saw was endless darkness everywhere, not a speck of light.

Even the wildly chaotic Temporal-Spatial Turbulence seemed sealed off; apart from that overwhelmingly unstoppable swallowing force, he sensed no other dangerous auras.

Boom—

The black little tower, like a tiny grain of sand, was swept by that ferocious swallowing force, flying wildly.

"I feel no trace of space-time chaos; it doesn't seem like an Absolute Domain."

Zhou Yang's thoughts shifted: "It seems the connection to the Yuzhou Universe has been cut off; Mo Yun Teng cannot even sense the location of its Divine Kingdom. It feels as if we are in the Initial Universe, where a collision of Temporal-Spatial Turbulence happened to create an independent space-time?"

"The swallowing force is too strong; even the Qian Kun World Force was shattered outright. With my current power I cannot resist it; to get out, I fear I can only call the teacher for rescue."

He silently felt the terrifying, unstoppable swallowing force enveloping the Myriad Elephant Tower, yet his heart remained unflustered.

The Temporal-Spatial Abyss is dangerous, but only relative to those of Esteemed-level Realm and below.

At the level of a Chaos City Master, directly controlling a region of space-time, the so‑called danger of the Temporal-Spatial Abyss cannot affect them at all.

Zhou Yang held a Rescue Token of the Chaos City Master in his hand, naturally brimming with confidence.

"But at present I don't sense any danger, so there's no need to rush. I'll just follow this force forward and see where it leads me!"

The Myriad Elephant Tower sped through the endless darkness.

Zhou Yang sat silently within the Myriad Elephant Tower, his mind at peace.

Soon, nearly six days had passed.

That day, Zhou Yang's heart stirred; his half‑closed eyes suddenly opened.

"The swallowing force has weakened, rapidly diminishing."

Zhou Yang's gaze, through the Myriad Elephant Tower, looked outward; the endless darkness that had always shrouded the tower, like ink soaked with water, was gradually receding.

From time to time, slender colored threads lit up in the darkness, resembling some mysterious law secret pattern.

Chirp—

The swallowing force rapidly waned; moments later, Zhou Yang felt he could control the Myriad Elephant Tower to resist that force.

Yet he did not rush to break free; he merely slowed the tower's speed slightly, still flying in the direction from which the swallowing force came.

Soon, a hazy glow appeared ahead.

It was a massive opening nearly a hundred kilometers in diameter, enveloped by a swirling colored light sphere, somewhat like the Boundary Membrane that lines the safe paths of the Temporal-Spatial Abyss. "An exit?"

Zhou Yang steered the Myriad Elephant Tower close; the swirling colored light sphere quivered slightly, and the tower was actively 'swallowed' by it.

He felt the flow of time fluctuate unpredictably, as if passing through a Cosmic Channel toward the Initial Universe.

"Wow!"

Everything around became clear.

"Where is this?"

Zhou Yang looked ahead; the trees and flora towered majestically, some ancient trees over a hundred kilometers tall, a scene of vibrant life.

Whoosh! He burst through the air, soaring above the forest, scanning the surroundings from high altitude.

At a glance, over the endless land stretched jungle, plains, mountains, flowing water—peaceful, tranquil! This was the first impression this world gave Zhou Yang.

But when he looked up at this world's 'sky', another sight completely stunned him!

A colossal, enigmatic secret pattern was imprinted across the entire sky.

Golden and silver secret‑pattern threads interwove, forming the core of the pattern.

At the edges of this ancient diagram, the ends of the golden and silver threads subtly split.

The golden thread's split produced three threads—cyan, purple, white; the silver thread's split yielded five threads—gold, green, blue, red, yellow.

These eight finer colored threads meandered and intertwined, forming eight secondary patterns far more intricate than the core.

On the outer periphery of the eight massive diagrams, each extended an additional 10,081 ultra‑fine threads.

The eight diagrams, each with 10,081 fine threads, totaled 80,648 threads.

Each thread twisted again, creating 80,648 miniature secret‑pattern images!

Each miniature secret pattern represented a Fundamental Law Essence; the densely packed miniatures formed the outermost region of the colossal diagram.

The 80,648 miniatures, the eight large secret patterns, and the golden‑silver core secret pattern together constructed the immense ancient diagram in the sky! At first glance, Zhou Yang's consciousness instantly sank into it.

In this massive diagram, he seemed to witness Chaos Evolution, Universe Opening! Time and space were born from chaos, the endless Space-Time Force constantly transformed, then differentiated into the three elements—Wind, Thunder, Light—and the five elements—Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth.

The Ten Fundamental Laws interlinked, permeating each other, jointly forming an independent space-time.

"Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Lightning, Light? Space-time? Fusion Law?"

"No, not Fusion Law! This—perhaps it should be called Decomposition Law?"

Zhou Yang's eyes were filled with awe! Today's prevailing cultivation paths in the universe, whether the Eight Beast God Dao or the Path of Space-Time Law, both study how to fuse the two great laws together.

If these two laws can be successfully fused, one can become the Universe Master! Yet the colossal ancient secret diagram before him seemed to describe a different extreme—it appeared to explain how to decompose Chaos step by step into space-time, then decompose space-time into the Eight Lower Laws, and finally decompose those into the most basic Fundamental Law Essences! This concept, which completely opposes the universal cultivation rules, struck Zhou Yang with an unimaginable impact.

"The Eight Subordinate Laws fuse into space-time; space-time fuses to give birth to Chaos."

"From Chaos arise Time and Space; Time and Space then decompose into the Three Spirits and the Five Elements."

The two diametrically opposite yet endlessly similar cultivation methods continuously clashed in Zhou Yang's mind, causing him to instantly sink into it (End of Chapter).
