Chapter 419 Law Bloodline
The new pattern etched on the surface of the membrane by the original laws of the old domain remained bright for three whole months.
Over three months, the fluorescence of the textured surface gradually decreased from extremely bright to extremely faint, but it did not go out.
It was simply adjusting the frequency of the laws at an extremely slow and steady pace, with adjustments so subtle that even Yang Jian's shattered mirror could barely detect a faint ripple of the laws.
Eros stood directly above the fault line of the Guixu foundation, activating all ten transparent law patterns on his hands. The Different Frequency Law Observation Station continuously recorded the extremely faint law remnants left after the paradox evolution within the fault line was completed.
Over the course of three months, the structure of the afterglow's laws remained unchanged, so stable that even the perception array of the different frequency laws could not find any flaws.
But one morning three months later, as the golden light of Mars spread across the South Heavenly Gate city wall, the new pattern on the surface of the old domain membrane suddenly flickered very subtly.
This flash was extremely short and faint, so faint that even Yang Jian's shattered mirror almost missed it, but Eros sensed it.
The transparent law membrane surrounding him changed from transparent to a very faint dark purple the instant the patterns flickered. Simultaneously, the law perception array inside the monitoring station emitted a very low law hum – this was not a warning, but the first active law signal released by the origin of the old domain's laws during its seclusion.
The signal was extremely brief, consisting of only one sentence.
"When your seclusion ends, send someone to pick you up."
Eros extinguished the ten transparent law patterns on his hands one by one, stood up from the white rock platform, and turned to look in the direction of the Ruins of Return.
Xu Zheng squatted at the edge of the crevice, performing a routine scan of the law nodes using the heart's vascular network. Sensing the color change of Eros's body membrane, he removed his right hand from his chest and stood up.
"The seclusion of the old domain has ended."
It was completed a little earlier than expected.
The new pattern etched on the surface of the membrane by the original laws of the old domain just released an active law signal, indicating that the seclusion was over and that someone was to be sent to pick them up.
They weren't coming to receive Eros, but to receive observational data on the extremely faint remnants of the laws that remained after the paradoxical evolution within the fault line was completed.
The original laws of the old domain need to use this data to recalibrate the balance of laws deep within the void.
"Eros, prepare yourself; the emissaries of the Old Realm will soon arrive on the outer side of the membrane."
Eros looked down at the ten transparent law patterns on his fingertips.
After the laws of different frequencies became independent, the patterns remained extremely faint and stable. Now, under the activation of the old domain law signal, they flashed on their own. After the flash, the law fluorescence on the surface of the patterns was slightly brighter than before.
"The cocoon of laws of the Old Realm Envoy has set out."
The core frequency of the laws inside the cocoon is completely of the same origin as the cocoon of the third branch messenger back then, but it is more stable and heavier.
During his seclusion, the origin of the Old Domain Laws recalibrated the core of the Envoy's laws. After the calibration, the Envoy's compatibility with the Primordial Laws system was higher than that of any previous extraterrestrial god envoy.
He could pass directly through the law membrane without needing to spread it out, because the law frequency of the membrane, under the blessing of the paradox pulse, was completely synchronized with the law frequency of the original law of the old domain.
Su Fan was sitting at the entrance of the weapons shop eating fried dough sticks when he heard Eros's message and put the dough sticks down.
He took the shattered mirror out of his waist, and a very stable and bright dark purple light spot of law appeared on the mirror surface in the deepest part of the void outside the membrane wall. The light spot was moving towards the membrane wall at an extremely fast speed.
The trajectory of its movement was extremely stable, leaving no trace of its laws in the void.
He tucked the broken mirror back into his waistband, pulled the Pangu Axe from beside the stool leg, slung it over his shoulder, and flew towards the Guixu Crack.
The cocoon of the Old Realm messenger arrived on the outside of the membrane wall that evening.
The cocoon shell was not large, about the same size as the cocoon shell of Eros's original messenger, but the law patterns on the surface of the cocoon shell were extremely faint and transparent, so transparent that they were almost completely integrated with the law light membrane in its semi-transparent state.
The messenger did not release any law-detecting pulses inside the cocoon; it simply hovered quietly on the outside of the membrane, waiting for the membrane to open on its own.
The membrane wall spontaneously cracked open with an extremely narrow opening the instant it sensed the core frequency of the law within the messenger's cocoon.
The opening is exactly where Eros first passed through the membrane, but this opening wasn't created by Pangu's axe; it opened on its own.
The messenger did not enter immediately after the opening opened, but hovered on the outside of the membrane for a very short time. Then, the law patterns on the surface of the cocoon flashed very subtly. After the flash, the cocoon opened on its own, and the messenger walked out of the cocoon.
The messenger's form is completely different from that of Eros and Erebus.
He is not a living symbiotic entity of laws, not an aggregate of laws, and not a detection unit encased in a cocoon of causal laws.
He was a projection of the laws formed by the origin of the laws of the old domain using a layer of extremely ancient law membrane that he shed during his seclusion. The projection was a very faint and ancient human figure outline. There was no law core, no law frequency, and no law fluctuation inside the outline. Only the extremely pure remnants of the laws of the old domain flowed very slowly.
The rhythm of the flow was perfectly synchronized with the breathing frequency of the seed of law deep within the fissures of the Ruins.
"My name is Eos, the projection of the First Law, the origin of the laws of the Old Realm."
By order of the origin of the laws of the old domain, I have come to receive Eros's observation data.
During its seclusion, the origin of the laws of the old domain continuously received observation data of the paradoxical echoes transmitted back by the observation station of the laws of different frequencies through the new texture on the surface of the membrane wall. The data underwent preliminary calibration within the old domain.
The calibration results show that the extremely faint remnant of the law left behind after the paradoxical evolution within the Guixu foundation fault produced an extremely subtle branch of law during its self-evolution. The frequency of the branch's law has an extremely subtle overlap with the core frequency of the original law of the old domain.
This branch is not part of the paradox, but a natural variation of the law that arises from the paradox's self-evolution.
The mutant's law structure is extremely stable, so stable that it can erect an extremely fine bridge of laws between the Old Domain and the Primordial World. This bridge requires no external force to maintain it, nor any resonance of laws to enhance it; it simply exists there quietly, its very existence being the bridge.
Eos's voice was extremely soft and faint.
Eros activated all ten transparent law patterns on his hands, extracting the complete observation data of the extremely faint law remnants remaining after the evolution of the paradox within the fault line from the core of the alternate frequency law observation station, and poured it into the ten law beams at his fingertips. The beams converged into an extremely thin pillar of alternate frequency law light in front of Eros.
The pillar of light contained the extremely subtle changes in the frequency of laws generated by each self-evolution of the paradox over the past three months.
Eos extended his extremely faint and ancient hand, his palm penetrating the layer of heterogeneous frequency law membrane on the surface of the light pillar, directly touching the core of observation data sealed inside the light pillar.
The moment it touched, the extremely faint and ancient law projection around Eos trembled slightly. After the tremor, the flow of the old domain law remnants within the projection changed from extremely slow to extremely fast.
It was so fast that his entire projection outline became extremely bright and transparent, so transparent that you could see every tiny law pattern on the extremely ancient law membrane that had shed its original form from the old domain inside the projection.
"The data has been received."
On the membrane of laws that the original source of the old domain shed during its seclusion, three law patterns lit up on their own after receiving the observation data.
These three lines have sealed countless eons in the very center of the core of the Old Domain's Law Origin, and have never been activated by any law signal.
Now that they are lit up, it means that the frequency of the law branch within the paradoxical echo is completely in sync with the three extremely ancient law imprints deep within the core of the old domain's law origin.
These three law imprints are not from the original source of the old domain's laws; they were left by Pangu when he struck the core of the original source of the old domain's laws with the back of his Heaven-Opening Axe.
He knocked three times, each time leaving an extremely subtle imprint of the law deep within the core. The three imprints sealed three sentences.
The first sentence is: After the paradoxical evolution is complete, the four laws of the primordial world will be integrated into one.
The second sentence is—after merging into one, the primordial laws-based life form will produce its first independent breath.
The third sentence is—breaths exhaled into the seeds of laws formed beneath the Ruins of Return will seal all the memories of the primordial laws of life forms from their birth to their complete evolution.
Pangu struck the door three times and spoke three sentences.
The original laws of the old domain sealed these three sentences within its core for countless eons, never knowing when they would be activated.
Now, the branch of law within the aftermath of the paradox has simultaneously activated these three law imprints, indicating that when Pangu struck those three times, he had already foreseen this day.
He calculated that after the paradoxical evolution was completed, the four laws of the primordial world would merge into one, that the primordial law life forms would develop autonomous breathing, and that the law seeds formed by breathing would seal all memories.
But what he didn't expect was that after the seed completed its self-calibration, the Primordial Law Life Force would reverse its breathing rhythm and pour it into the primordial law rift in the depths of the Ruins.
The primordial, desolate environment inside the fissure begins to evolve on its own after receiving the breathing rhythm.
The direction of evolution is not at the level of laws, but at the level of time.
The rift is transforming into a time-law lens, sealing within it the entire timeline of a primordial life form from its birth to its complete evolution.
The flow of time is not replaying the past, but rehearsing the future.
Upon hearing this, Eros abruptly looked down at the ten transparent law patterns on his fingertips.
The pattern flashed several times on its own while Eos was speaking. After it finished flashing, the frequency of the laws inside the pattern changed very slightly. After the perception array of the different frequency laws synchronously received the old domain law data transmitted back by Eos, it automatically deciphered the very initial law structure of the law time lens inside the rift.
Structural data shows that the future prediction inside the lens is accelerating, and after accelerating to the limit, the lens will release an extremely weak law prediction pulse to the outside.
The content of the pulse is not the fluctuation of the law, nor the frequency of the law, but the pre-dawn coordinates of extremely critical law nodes that the primordial law life form may encounter in the long future.
It is not a prophecy, nor destiny, but an extremely faint inference about the laws of life generated by the law-based life form itself during its autonomous operation. The accuracy of the inference is not 100%, but it is enough to provide the primordial world with very early warnings of laws-based crises.
"The crack is evolving into a time lens."
The pre-dawn pulse inside the lens will soon be released.
After the pre-simulation pulse is released, the coordinates will be transmitted along the law-like patterns of the white rock layer of the Guixu foundation to the core fragment of Mount Sumeru at the South Heavenly Gate.
The law nodes generated by the fusion of Buddhist laws and the laws of sentient beings within the fragments will translate the coordinates into specific law fluctuation warnings.
The warning does not indicate a certain disaster, but rather a possible deviation of the law nodes.
If deviations are prevented in advance, they may not occur at all.
If left unchecked, it could become a real crisis of the laws of nature long afterward.
The first self-rehearsal produced by a primordial life form after it begins to breathe independently is not for predicting the future, but for self-calibration.
The calibration targets the extremely subtle deviations in the laws that may occur in the autonomous operation of the primordial law life form. If these deviations are not calibrated, they will accumulate to a certain extent and trigger a chain reaction of law nodes collapsing in the very distant future.
The collapse is not broken from the outside, but rather from the fatigue of the laws that arise naturally from within.
Once fatigue reaches its limit, the law node will automatically enter a dormant state. After dormancy, the upper limit of the pressure bearing capacity of the Guixu foundation will decrease.
If the fatigue accumulation covers five key nodes—the sealing membrane wall, the isolation zone vacuum, the backup law node healing opening, the law remnant sealing at the bottom of the crevice, and the South Heavenly Gate city wall law node—and all of them enter a dormant state, the overall bearing capacity of the Guixu foundation will drop sharply in a very short time. After the sharp drop, the foundation will slowly collapse inward.
The collapse is not fast, but it is continuous.
After collapsing to its limit, the Guixu Crack will explode again, and the shockwave from the explosion will overturn the South Heavenly Gate.
This is not an invasion by external enemies, but rather the natural fatigue of the primordial law-based life form after operating for an extremely long time.
After the pre-war pulse is released, what the Primordial World needs to do is not to fight, but to maintain order.
Xu spoke extremely fast.
Su Fan hoisted the Pangu Axe onto his shoulder and headed towards the Guixu Rift.
The law-based time lens inside the rift trembled slightly when Eos finished speaking his last words. After the tremor, a very faint and ancient law-predicting pulse surged out from inside the rift.
The pulse traveled along the law patterns of the white rock layer of the Guixu foundation towards the South Heavenly Gate. When it reached the core fragment of Mount Sumeru, it was automatically received by the law nodes inside the fragment. After receiving it, the law patterns inside the nodes adjusted slightly on their own.
This was an extremely subtle ripple of law, but Yang Jian's shattered mirror captured it.
The ripples on the mirror surface form extremely complex law-based waveforms, with the offset coordinates of all law nodes that may occur in the future over a very long period of time marked inside the waveforms.
The number of coordinates is so large that even the remnants of the mirror law can hardly be displayed.
However, the vast majority of coordinates are extremely slight offsets, with very small deviations, which can be corrected back with regular maintenance.
Only one coordinate had a much larger offset than the others, so much so that it was automatically marked as a law node offset core warning by the Sumeru Mountain core fragment.
The warning location is not on the foundation of the ruins, not on the outside of the membrane wall, and not at the end of the ruins.
It is located inside an inconspicuous old city brick directly below the core fragment of Mount Sumeru on the South Heavenly Gate city wall. The law patterns inside the brick have been reinforced once under the blessing of paradox pulses, making it extremely stable and dense after reinforcement.
However, the pre-simulation pulse indicates that much later, this law pattern will develop its first extremely fine law crack due to the fatigue of natural laws over an extremely long period of time. The crack will not immediately affect the operation of the fragment.
However, if the crack continues to expand, it will spread to both sides along the golden pattern network of the city wall. After it spreads to a certain range, the complementary resonance between the core fragments of Mount Sumeru and the fragments of Buddhist laws will be interrupted for a short time. During the interruption, the sensitivity of the South Heavenly Gate to the laws on the outside of the membrane wall will decrease slightly for a short time.
Su Fan put the Pangu Axe down from his shoulder, the blade touching the ground. He looked down at the coordinates marked as the core warning of the law node offset on the mirror. The coordinates were located on the old city brick behind him when he usually squatted by the crenellation eating fried dough sticks.
That brick was one of the old city brick fragments that were shattered by the law of cause and effect when the extraterrestrial gods first attacked the South Heavenly Gate. Later, Qingfeng led the soldiers left behind to fill it back into the gap in the city wall. The light gold patterns inside the brick and the gold patterns of the old brick fit together perfectly, and after fitting together, it was extremely stable and dense.
"There is still a long time between now and the crack appearing as shown by the pre-simulated pulse."
During this period, the fatigue generated by the laws of the primordial laws during the autonomous operation of the life form will slowly accumulate within all key nodes.
Cracks will only appear after the buildup reaches its limit.
There's enough time.
This is enough for us to completely eliminate the law fatigue at the five key nodes in advance.
Clearing away the fatigue of the laws does not require Pangu's axe, the aftershocks of a great calamity, or the isolation of laws from different frequencies.
All A Dou needs to do is use his small axe to chop directly above each key node. The pre-chopping pulse will lock onto the area with the highest concentration of law fatigue in advance, shaking out the extremely weak law fragments generated by the accumulation of fatigue from inside the node.
After the tremor, the larvae's sensory network automatically absorbs and transforms the energy, converting it into the energy that reinforces the white rock layer of the rubble foundation.
A Dou was squatting at the alley entrance chopping the day's dry branches when he heard Su Fan's message. He tucked the small axe into his waistband and ran towards the edge of the Guixu Crack on the bluestone slabs.
The gray-white aura of law on the blade of the small axe, enhanced by the paradox pulse, has evolved to the point where it can predict the weak points of the law structure, and now it can also predict the area of law fatigue accumulation.
He ran to the ruins and raised the small axe above his head. The gray-white aura of law on the axe blade shone brightly in the faint golden light of law on the foundation of the ruins. The first axe strike landed directly above the sealing membrane. The pre-splitting pulse penetrated the membrane and precisely struck the extremely fine area of law fatigue accumulation at the edge of the eternally dormant seal of the mutant inside the membrane, shaking out the extremely weak law fragments in the area.
The second axe strike was directly above the vacuum of the isolation zone; the third axe strike was at the junction of the backup law node; the fourth axe strike was directly above the law remnant sealing membrane at the bottom of the crevice; and the fifth axe strike was on the surface of the old city brick directly below the core fragment of Mount Sumeru on the South Heavenly Gate city wall.
After the five axe blows were completed, the fatigue of the laws within the five key nodes was completely cleared, and the law fragments that were shaken out were automatically absorbed and transformed by the larval sensory network.
After the transformation, the upper limit of the law bearing capacity of the white rock layer of the Guixu foundation jumped up slightly, and the warning of the law node offset core on the Nantianmen city wall was automatically deactivated inside the core fragment of Sumeru Mountain.
Su Fan slung the Pangu Axe over his shoulder and headed towards the weapons shop.
After the pre-rendering pulse was released, the law-time lens inside the rift healed itself. After the healing, the inside of the rift returned to extreme darkness and stillness. Only the law seed was still pulsating slightly at an extremely slow and steady rhythm, the frequency of which was completely synchronized with the breathing rhythm of the primordial law life form.
A Dou tucked the small axe into his waistband, ran back to the weapon shop on the bluestone slabs, the fragments of bone and blood still sticking to the edge of the quenching tank, shining slightly.
The aftershock of the great calamity at the alley entrance danced with extremely faint white arcs of electricity on the bluestone slabs. It was extremely stable and primordial. The crisis that had been anticipated was cleaved away by the five axe blows before it even occurred.
Seven days after the pre-rehearsal pulse was released, a very faint law pattern appeared on the surface of the white rock layer of the Guixu foundation.
The patterns were not left by the pre-rehearsed pulse, nor by the lingering echoes of the paradox, nor were they cleaved out by Liu Shan's five axe blows.
It slowly seeped upwards from the deepest part of the white rock layer. The seepage was so slow that it took Eros standing on the edge of the fault and scanning the array of the Law of Different Frequency for three consecutive days to confirm that it was indeed moving upwards.
Xu squatted on the edge of the crevice, his right hand inserted into his chest cavity, his heart's veins spreading out along the new pattern of the white rock layer.
He closed his eyes and sensed for a long time, then pulled his right hand out and shook off the white rock powder stuck to his fingertips.
"The frequency of the laws governing this pattern is exactly the same as the projection frequency of the Old Domain Envoy."
Eros turned around, and the ten transparent law patterns on his hands shimmered slightly in the dark purple light of the morning.
"What Eos left behind?"
"It's not about leaving behind anything. It's about infiltrating."
Xu stood up, walked to the edge of the white rock plateau, and looked down at the extremely faint law pattern that slowly spread along the white rock layer pattern at the edge of the fault.
"Eos is a projection formed from the ancient membrane that shed its original form of the laws of the old domain. Although he stayed in the primordial world for a very short time, the residual influence of the laws of the old domain within the projection naturally dissipated into the environment of the primordial world."
This wisp of dissipation did not dissipate or return to its original state; it was absorbed by the white rock layer of the Guixu foundation.
Under the influence of the Paradox Pulse, the White Rock Layer's compatibility with extraterrestrial laws is countless times stronger than before. After absorbing them, there is no rejection or transformation; it simply seals the lingering trace of the old domain's laws deep within the White Rock Layer.
After being sealed for seven days, the residual energy seeped outwards along the original patterns of the white rock layer, forming this pattern.
Eros crouched down, his fingertips hovering half an inch above the new pattern.
The fluorescence of the laws on the surface of the texture is extremely faint and stable, with a color between the dark purple of the old domain and the gold of the primordial world, as if two law systems are slowly probing each other.
"What is the purpose of this pattern?"
Ruins did not answer immediately.
He put his right hand back into his chest, and the sensory waves of his heart's network swept along the lines all the way to the bottom of the fault, and then extended a very long distance along the bedrock towards the South Heavenly Gate.
After sensing for the duration of half an incense stick, he withdrew his right hand, his expression extremely strange.
"This pattern is weaving itself."
"What are you knitting?"
"Weave an extremely fine and dense channel of laws."
One end of the passage connects to the pattern on the foundation of the Ruins, and the other end—"
Xu paused for a moment, his right hand unconsciously pressing against the outside of his ribs.
"The other end is connected to the deepest part of the old domain."
It wasn't the road Eos came from; it was another one.
During its seclusion, the origin of the Old Domain Laws not only calibrated the core of the Laws of the envoy, but also opened an extremely fine opening within itself.
The opening was extremely narrow and well-hidden, so narrow that even the law-based life forms within the old domain could not perceive its existence.
However, after the white rock layer absorbed the residual energy of Eos's dissipated laws, a trace of that energy flowed back through the opening.
The backflow path is extremely slow, so slow that it takes a very long time to fully connect.
But once it's connected—"
What will happen once it's connected?
Xu removed his right hand from his chest and looked down at the white rock powder stuck to his fingertips.
The powder glowed with a very faint golden light in the dim purple morning light, exactly the same color as the new pattern.
"Once connected, there will be an extremely stable channel of laws between the Primordial World and the Old Domain."
The channel does not require a messenger cocoon, nor does it require perforations in the law membrane wall, nor does it require any external force for maintenance.
It simply exists there quietly; its very existence is the passageway.
The origin of the laws of the old domain can continuously receive data on changes in the primordial law environment through this channel, and primordial law life forms can also sense the law fluctuations within the old domain through this channel.
It's not an invasion, it's not an alliance, it's—"
"It's a bridge."
Eros stood up and looked down at the ten transparent law patterns on his fingertips.
"Eos said that paradoxical variants are themselves bridges."
This white rock layer pattern also forms a bridge.
The opening created by the origin of the laws of the old domain is also a bridge.
Pangu struck the door three times and left three sentences, predicting paradoxical evolution, autonomous breathing, and the seeds of laws.
But he didn't mention the bridge.
The bridge grew out of itself.
Su Fan was squatting at the entrance of the weapons shop, eating a steamed bun. When he heard Eros's message, he put the bun in his mouth, took out the broken mirror, and shone it in the direction of the Ruins of Return.
The new pattern on the white rock layer on the mirror was extremely clear. After the end of the pattern disappeared at the edge of the mirror, a very faint dark purple halo of law appeared. Inside the halo, the outline of the law structure deep inside the old domain was sealed.
He tucked the broken mirror back into his waistband, swallowed the steamed bun in a few bites, stood up, and patted the crumbs off his hands.
"It's not a bad thing that the bridge has grown longer."
The source of the Old Domain Laws secluded itself for three months, shedding a layer of membrane to condense into Eos, which descended to receive the data. After receiving the data, the three core imprints were activated, and an opening appeared inside the Old Domain. The opening connected itself with the residual energy absorbed by the white rock layer.
Once connected, a new law-based passage will exist between the Old Domain and the Primordial World, requiring no external force to maintain it.
No step in this entire process is superfluous, and no step is subject to external interference.
It's all the laws of nature that work themselves out.
He glanced back at the alley entrance.
The aftershocks of the great calamity still danced with faint white arcs of electricity on the bluestone slab. A Dou squatted on the threshold of the weapon shop, sharpening his small axe. Fragments of his bone and blood clung to the dark red embers beside the quenching trough, pulsating slightly.
The golden patterns on the South Heavenly Gate city wall were extremely stable and bright in the golden light of Mars. The law nodes inside the core fragment of Mount Sumeru were operating smoothly, and no more warning coordinates appeared.
The primordial world was extremely stable.
The bridge is being slowly woven.
Su Fan pulled the Pangu Axe from the threshold, hoisted it onto his shoulder, and walked towards the Guixu Crack.
The new patterns on the white rock layer shone faintly and steadily in the morning light, their color having changed from dark purple to a mixture of purple and gold, like an extremely fine vein of law, gradually stitching together the extremely distant and ancient distance between the primordial world and the old domain.
