Chapter 713: Saintly Method Chooses the Master!

After saying that, the Bronze Ancient Mirror fell silent, as if it had handed the choice entirely over to Ye Wuque.

The meaning in its words, Ye Wuque understood naturally.

This is an opportunity, and also a massive danger.

If he takes this half of the Dark Sacred Law Origin, his power will surge, granting unimaginable benefits.

But at the same time, it would utterly enrage the Dark Clan, even drawing the Dark Ancestor himself into action.

Nevertheless, there was not the slightest hesitation on Ye Wuque's face.

Not only would he not shy away from the Dark Clan's pursuit; even if the Dark Ancestor himself intervened, he would never abandon this half of the Dark Sacred Law Origin!

This is the Holy Law Origin!

Across Zhutian Wanjie, countless strong beings have sought the unparalleled destiny that they could not obtain, now lying before him—how could he not take it?

No one would complain about possessing too much Holy Law Origin.

Moreover, even if he didn't take this half of the Dark Sacred Law Origin, would the Dark Clan let him go?

Impossible.

He killed Ostrolosky, a Dark Great Power of Supreme Boundless Great Perfection, and he himself is the Great Dragon Halberd Inheritor; the Dark Clan has long harbored a bone‑deep, relentless hatred for him.

Moreover, from his standpoint, the moment he resolved to oppose the Dark Clan, it was sealed that his relationship with them could only be life‑or‑death, with no room for reconciliation.

Given that, what is there to hesitate about?

Ye Wuque's eyes became extraordinarily resolute.

He inhaled deeply, steadied his mind and spirit, and prepared to claim this half of the Dark Sacred Law Origin.

The Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor beside him finally recovered from his shock.

He has lived countless years; as the Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan, he has perused innumerable ancient Dragon Clan texts, his knowledge immeasurably vast.

Earlier, he had vaguely guessed the origin of this thing, but dared not be certain.

Now, he is almost one hundred percent certain.

The dark light sphere before him is the legendary, supreme Holy Law Origin of Zhutian!

In an instant, a colossal wave surged within the Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor's heart.

Holy Law Origin!

That is truly a thing of legend!

Even the Dragon Clan, whose lineage spans countless epochs, have only seen records of the Holy Law Origin in the oldest texts, and it seems no one has ever truly possessed it!

And now, a genuine Holy Law Origin lies before his eyes!

To claim you aren't moved would be false.

That Holy Law Origin is enough to drive any Dark Cultivator mad, willing to pay any price for its unparalleled destiny!

Yet, there was not the slightest greed in the Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor's heart, nor any thought of seizing it.

He knows clearly that without Ye Wuque, he would have perished at Ostrolosky's hands long ago, his spirit unable to endure.

Not to mention, this Holy Law Origin is something Ye Wuque obtained only by risking death to slay Ostrolosky.

This thing rightfully belongs to Ye Wuque.

How it will ultimately be dealt with is for Ye Wuque alone to decide.

The Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor consciously stepped back a few paces, standing aside without uttering a word, his gaze filled with awe, admiration, and a hint of relief as he watched Ye Wuque's silhouette.

Across Zhutian Wanjie, with a figure like Ye Wuque present, there is hope in opposing the Dark Clan.

Ye Wuque paid no mind to the Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor behind him.

All his attention was focused on the half of the Dark Sacred Law Origin before him.

He slowly raised his right hand, step by step, moving toward that dark light sphere.

His steps were steady; with each footfall, the surrounding raging Time‑Space Turbulence instantly subsided.

The Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor behind him kept his gaze fixed on this spot.

He had expected Ye Wuque to strike immediately, pocketing this easily attainable Holy Law Origin.

After all, this is the Ultimate Opportunity coveted by countless strong ones; even a fragment can catapult an ordinary powerhouse to the heavens, granting the means to sweep across Zhutian.

But contrary to his expectation, Ye Wuque not only refrained from acting, but gradually retracted all his Qi, even the battle‑blood that still boiled after the recent clash quietly settled.

He stood there in silence, his gaze calmly fixed on the dark Holy Law Origin, without any greed or haste, as if before him lay not a force that could shake Zhutian but an ordinary stubborn stone.

"Ye Xiaoyou, you…"

The Nine Heavens Dragon Emperor couldn't help but speak, his tone full of bewilderment.

Such an opportunity is fleeting; if sensed by other passing Ancient Entities, it would inevitably spark a cataclysmic war, making later acquisition nearly impossible.

Ye Wuque slightly raised his hand, cutting him off, his voice calm and even: "Senior, stay composed. The Holy Law Origin has never been something a living being can seize. Only the Saintly Method Chooses the Master, not the other way around. Forcing action only invites the Holy Law's backlash, even causing it to destroy its Dao Foundation and vanish entirely from heaven and earth."

His voice was soft, yet every word was a gem, reflecting his ultimate insight into Tiandao's principles.

Throughout his journey, he has consecutively subdued the three great Saintly Method Origins of Battle, Time‑Space, and Destiny, relying not on brute suppression but on the harmony between his Dao and the Holy Law Origins, a recognition granted by the Saintly Method itself.

He knows better than anyone that a Saintly Method bearing the universe's ultimate rules possesses its own supreme will, preferring to shatter like jade rather than crumble like tile.
