Chapter 584 Three Paths of Law
[Water-Fire Polarity]
An enormous blue and red ball appeared before Huo Fenghuang before fusing, not into the color purple, but a half-blue and red sphere. Then, the dichromatic globe headed straight for the Yellow Qi Tree.
The orb contained the power of ice and fire infinitely altering between each other, creating the ultimate grinding machine, a machine capable of grinding any world to dust.
As such, the tree branches only lasted for a moment before Huo Fenghuang regained her freedom. However, her attack also did not stop as it headed for Ao Tianyi's scale.
The dragon's purple scale shone brilliantly as it resisted the cutting power of the sphere. Huo Fenghuang acted swiftly as she swung her saber, killing Ao Tianyi's defensive capability.
Crack!
Many cracks appeared on his dragon's scale. However, Ao Tianyi was not injured. He turned his body into thunder elements to evade the [Water-Fire Polarity].
Ao Tianyi appeared a few dozen of meters aside, staring at his opponent with his eagle-like eyes.
'What an annoyance,' he thought. He had a few methods he could use, but it would be beneath him to use them so soon, and not even against a seeded player. Nevertheless, he decided to no longer play around.

Dark clouds suddenly appeared above everyone's heads, covering a few hundred kilometers. Then, purple thunder began to fall from the sky with speed hundreds of times that of light.
An infinite number of lightning bolts fell from the clouds, trying to erase Huo Fenghuang from Heaven and Earth. She did her best to evade, but she could not do so for all the bolts. As a result, she had to rely on her phoenix's regeneration to barely survive.
On the ground, Wang Wei and the other participants watched the battle unfold.
'This dragon's strength is not bad.' The current attack had reached 1-Leaf Immortal Venerable strength, and he could tell the latter was holding back. So, his genuine strength was probably around 2 to 3-Leaf.
'She's also holding back and hiding,' thought Wang Wei as he looked at Huo Fenghuang. 'Her bloodline might have evolved to the point of giving birth to Innate Laws.'
Wang Wei squinted his eyes as some idea popped into his mind. He sensed the Innate Law Ao Tianyi used and could sense an unknown and mysterious power; it was more of a will.
'Innate Laws, Primordial Laws, and Grand Dao Source: the Three Paths of Laws.'
Wang Wei remembered the information he knew from his ancestors.
'The Grand Dao Source is the origin of all laws or Daos in the Chaos Universe, and it is the highest form of power.'
As the name implies, the Grand Dao Source is the root or origin of all laws, concepts, or rules that make up the entire universe. By controlling it, Great Emperors have no restraint wherever they go: whether it is Primordial Chaos or any Chaos Worlds.
And by the time they become Paragons, the level of control over these concepts reaches unimaginable. A cultivator has to become the sole controller of whatever Dao he cultivates, granting powerful authority.
For example, a Peak Paragon who controls 100% of Fire Dao can stripe the power of a Paragon with only 99% control. And if the 99% Paragon wants to reach the peak of the paragon realm, they have two options.
Firstly, fight the peak Paragon and remove their Imprint in the Fire Dao, replacing their opponent. Of course, it would be best if they were lucky and no one had this position. The second option is to make their Dao unique, for example, Yin Fire, Flower Fire, Sun Fire, etc. In this situation, the peak Fire Paragon could only reduce the 99% Fire Paragon's strength and not completely remove their control.
With a unique Dao, the 99% Fire Paragon would essentially create a new Grand Dao Source of Yin-Fire or Flower Fire.
At the beginning of the Chaos Universe, there were only 3800 Grand Dao Sources, consistent with the 3800 Primary Daos. But, with the rise of cultivators, an infinite number of new Sources appeared, blooming the universe into prosperity.
Nevertheless, the Paragons who controlled Primary Daos had a vital position in the entire universe, so many people fought for their spot.
'As the controller of the root of all laws, Emperors should be the most powerful and noble beings in existence,' thought Wang Wei. 'However, the universe placed restrictions on them for balance.'
The power of Order flashed in his eyes as he entered a state of enlightenment.
'Innate Lifeforms follow the Heavenly Dao Path. Heavenly Dao boosted their Innate Laws; this is the reason many of them were on par with Great Emperors. However, as soon as an Innate Lifeform enters Primordial Chaos, they lose that boost.
'The same goes for Fiendgods. They follow the Primordial Dao Path, and their Primordial Laws are boosted by Primordial Chaos itself. If they leave, their laws are also weakened.
'Great Emperors follow the Grand Dao Path, comprehending the Source and not being affected by the environment.
'Another way for the universe to maintain balance is to grant Fiendgods and Innate Demon Gods stronger fleshly bodies, allowing them to compete with the Grand Dao Path.'
As Wang Wei entered this deep state of enlightenment, he could see how the Chaos Universe developed when after its birth. He could see how these three paths were distinct, mutually exclusive. However, as time passed, life and the universe began to merge and evolve.
Innate Demon Gods and Fiendgods proved the Dao and walked the Grand Dao Path, while Emperors began to temper their bodies to be on par with these blessed races.
'Under normal circumstances, these three paths should be a pyramid. After walking in the Heavenly Dao Path, a cultivator should evolve into the Primordial Dao Path before eventually comprehending the Dao Source.
'However, the [Heaven Will] created a shortcut that allowed cultivators to skip all the other paths. Its existence is a form of Disorder. Yin-Yang, balance, Disorder, and Order.
'The Heaven Will's existence allowed for the rapid development of the universe's inhabitants without grave consequences. And the habitant's development benefits the universe, creating a positive change and development cycle.
'The Choas Universe's strict order, rulers, and balance make one wonder if its creation was artificial or natural,' thought Wang Wei as he ended his enlightenment.
He felt his mind clear as he sublimated his spirit. Although his strength did not improve much, Wang Wei did not mind. Order and Disorder Laws had many benefits since they allowed him to understand the universe and its operation better.
And every time he does so, it becomes easier for him to divine or calculates information, easier to see and comprehend laws. It becomes easier to achieve his goal of attaining absolute freedom. Wang Wei could also feel that understanding the Chaos Universe would benefit him greatly in the future.
Wang Wei sensed something and looked opposite him when he saw Xiao Tiandi looking at him with one eye.
'Interesting.' He covered his enlightenment to not alert anyone, but the opponent detected something–even though Chu Luo right next to him did not do so.
'The Innate Grand Source Physique, the ultimate physique of the Grand Dao Path.'
Wang Wei glanced at him before looking back at the fight. He could tell the outcome would soon be determined.
Huo Fenghuang looked haggard and pale; she had regenerated too many times and reached her limit. If it was not for her Willpower, dying or coming close to death so many times would have affected most cultivators.
Nevertheless, she persevered as her plans finally succeeded. The Law of Luck flashed on her body, and Ao Tianyi made a mistake out of nowhere. His control of Thunder Laws caused a small backlash to his body and injured him.
Huo Fenghuang acted swiftly as she used her Slaughter Law, directly linking to Ao Tianyi's heart.
Swish!
An enormous beating heart appeared before her. Without hesitation, she took a Void Breaking Talisman and disappeared from the trial.
"My heart," roared the dragon, his anger uncontrollable. He turned back to his human form with two horns–except he had a gaping hole in his chest. Without hesitation, he took a few pills from his space ring to swallow them.
In an instant, the gaping hole disappeared, and his heart regenerated. However, the dragon was furious beyond describable words. His first instinct was to call his Dao Protector to go after Huo Fenghuang, but he remembered his oath.
So, he decided to go after her himself. However, he remembered his father's words on the importance of this task. Ao Tianyi's face then twisted in strange ways for the next few seconds; he wanted to get his revenge, but he also knew what to prioritize.
Ultimately, he controlled himself to focus on his task. He looked at the seeded players with red eyes. Then, he glanced at Lord Spirit:
"Since she ran away, is this considered my victory?"
"That's correct."
"Can I challenge people now?"
"If you wish."
"Second seat, I challenge you."
Wang Wei smiled, "Little Dragon, are you sure you want to make this mistake?"
"Don't waste my time, and watch your tongue when speaking to me."
"Hehehe. As you wish. Anyway, I also want a Dragon Heart."
