Capítulo 458: Paths

As the experience poured in, he forced himself into deep concentration, trying his best to understand the absolute source law.

He felt his mastery over the law grow steadily until it suddenly stopped as the experience stopped flowing. He exhaled deeply – he had failed once again today.

Even so, he was another step closer.

He then began his daily ritual, summoning his absolute source law.

This time, he recreated five thousand laws. As his energy capacity increased, he could handle more and more laws. The more laws he created, the more his capacity grew, meaning he would soon be able to recreate millions of laws.

As the laws jumped toward perfect mastery, he felt his energy increasing by leaps and bounds.

Then came the increase in divine power. The primordial energy had just finished devouring the divine power from before and expanded greatly, but now it was already receiving another round of divine power.

A few minutes later, the transformations had calmed down and Xiang Yu could finally relax.

With the energy flowing within him, he wondered if he had reached the threshold for Second Path Sage. He dismissed the thoughts and focused his attention on his spiritual sea, specifically on the Realm of Six Heavens.

Now that he had received an energy boost, it was time to use it.

The reason he kept increasing the time acceleration of the world every time was not just for making advanced life for the split souls – it was also a way to progress toward law transcendence.

Most of the clones in the spiritual sea were now focusing on understanding absolute source law and attempting to transcend it.

He concentrated on his time law and gave it another boost in power, advancing the time acceleration being applied to the Realm of Six Heavens.

Now the time acceleration was ten million times.

In short, a day in the outside world was now almost thirty thousand years in the Realm of Six Heavens.

Something Xiang Yu noticed was that even with energy, his time law seemed to be reaching its limit. If he didn’t transcend it, he might not be able to accelerate time much further – maybe about one hundred million times.

Well, that should be enough. He would find a way to transcend with that.

Just as he was thinking about that, something happened – his appraisal evolved into the seer profession. It was a much more advanced form of appraisal that made use of laws like causality, fate, order, destiny, and karma.

Xiang Yu instantly used the upgrade chance on his cultivation library.

After using the chance, his cultivation library advanced to sage level, unlocking another set of knowledge that he happily consumed.

After about an hour, he was done analyzing the knowledge.

He noted that surprisingly, the amount of knowledge went down with every level up. Well, it made sense – not many advanced to such levels. Even so, the complexity was quite high, still requiring time to understand. Though this was no problem for him.

He exhaled deeply, calming himself as he processed the information. Unfortunately, there was no clear advice on transcending the law. There was some, but it was all vague statements and each book had their own strange methods.

In the end, he concluded that transcending was a personal thing and one had to figure it out on their own.

Apart from that, he had gained information about multiple ways for progressing through the sage realm. Most of the methods were really niche, so he didn’t pay much attention to them. There were three, however, that he found interesting – apart from the split soul method, of course.

…

The first method was the simplest – just absorb sage qi and advance.

The problem with this was that the method was extremely slow, requiring lots of time and a high-quality spiritual root. But even with a dao grade spiritual root, it was still too difficult to progress as the sage realms required extreme amounts of qi to advance.

When you advanced a path, this required qi would increase even more.

In the end, not many dared to use this method.

The second method was also simple – just kill other sages and absorb their essence.

But for this to work, you needed to kill a sage above you or three on the same level as you to advance your path.

When comparing these methods to the one the Sage of Causality used, it seemed the others were quite hard. Well, even the one the Sage of Causality used came with its own difficulties.

For example, it was possible for someone to attack you directly through your soul clone, which was weaker. It was also possible for your personality to be taken over by the clone, as seen with the sage and Li Yao.

As for the third method, it was the one Xiang Yu found most interesting.

It relied on traversing alternate paths. Existence had its own branching paths that were born from laws such as time and causality. One had to navigate these paths, find alternate versions of themselves, and absorb them to advance. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI[F]ire.net

When one absorbed all other paths of themselves and established themselves as the single true version, they would advance to the Sixth Path, perfecting their sage realm.

The reason Xiang Yu found this interesting – well, more like scary – was because he was afraid of an alternate version of himself coming looking for him.

He wondered if an alternate version of himself would also have the system.

He scratched his head. Things were getting more and more complicated. And what about Li Yao? Would other versions of her also come? How many of them were there out there? This had to be illegal, no? How could the heavenly dao let such a thing happen?

“Argh, I’ll think about this once I advance to the sage realm,” he thought.

Besides, he couldn’t see paths at the moment, so thinking about it would just be a waste of time.

As he thought of this, he sensed Li Yao’s presence. He used his system function to first make sure she was the one he knew before letting her into the barrier.

“Husband, I’m back. Let’s spar,” she said excitedly.

“Don’t worry, we will definitely spar. But before that…” Xiang Yu waved his hand and brought out loads of food. But this wasn’t just any normal food. Rather, it was dao grade food.

He had yet to advance his soul to eternal grade even though he could because he didn’t want to waste time eating sage food instead of attempting transcendence. But now that he had dao grade food, which was many levels higher than sage grade, he should be able to advance his soul to eternal grade much faster.
