Bai Xi reflects on how difficult it is to earn merit, comparing the efforts of Bai Mu's team to Wang Ye's group. Meanwhile, Jiang Ye converges his treasures into Huanglong Merit and uses it to purchase a Fruit of Law, which is miraculously delivered remotely. He begins refining the fruit, aiming to break through his Ashen Law and overcome the looming threat of Mo Wushuang.

Rumble!

A formidable aura erupted from Jiang Ye's secluded cultivation spot, spreading its influence across the entire world.

At this very moment.

Jiang Ye's fundamental life essence underwent a profound transformation.

"Swish~" He opened his eyes, only to perceive the vibrant colors of the world draining away, leaving behind an intricate tapestry of black and white law patterns unfurling in the void.

The Ashen Law!

"So this is..."

"So this is the true essence of the Ashen Law." Jiang Ye's gaze swept over the surrounding heavens and earth, his eyes alight with newfound understanding: "The core of ash lies not in destruction."

Following the Ashen Law's advancement to the Eight Breaks level.

Jiang Ye began to perceive the 'ashen form' inherent in all things.

Grass, mountains, rivers, and even the offensive maneuvers of adversaries transformed into wisps of gray mist before his eyes, seemingly on the verge of dissipation. A mere touch of law power was sufficient to deconstruct them and reconstitute them as his own strength.

"Destruction is not the ultimate objective; reconstruction is its very essence."

"The Ashen Law's fundamental principle is reconstruction!" Jiang Ye grasped this profound realization.

All existence within the world would find a new form within the encompassing domain of the Ashen Law.

And Jiang Ye stood as the undisputed master of this transformative power.

With this conviction solidifying, Jiang Ye abruptly lifted his head, his attention fixing upon a majestic mountain peak looming in the distance.

"Scatter." Jiang Ye extended a casual hand.

"Whish~"

Unseen forces surged as invisible rules took hold, and the colossal mountain, stretching tens of thousands of meters high, instantly dissolved into a swirling cloud of ash, dispersing across the landscape.

This spectacle was utterly breathtaking.

An entire mountain, tens of thousands of meters tall, silentlY reducing to mere ashes... it was an event far more awe-inspiring than any explosive display of power.

Yet, Jiang Ye's true intentions extended far beyond this initial act.

"Condense!" Jiang Ye clenched his fist with sudden force.

In the ensuing moment, the encompassing cloud of ash rapidly coalesced, reforming into a sphere of gray luminescence, radiating an aura of immense power.

"Explode!" Jiang Ye unfurled his palm.

Rumble~

The gray sphere detonated instantaneously, unleashing a devastating shockwave that annihilated the surrounding terrain and environment for a radius of a thousand miles.

"Too incredibly powerful."

"The Ashen Law at the Eight Breaks level is truly exceptional." Jiang Ye's face broke into an exhilarated grin: "Four ounces moving a thousand pounds, the sheer terror of it."

In the past, Jiang Ye could also unleash such widespread destruction, but it invariably demanded the expenditure of substantial energy.

However, this time?

He had exerted negligible effort, a mere flick of his finger resulting in the devastation of a thousand-mile expanse.

This remarkable feat was entirely attributable to the 'reconstruction' principle embedded within the Ashen Law.

The Ashen Law possessed the capability to deconstruct all matter into usable energy for Jiang Ye's disposal.

In essence, everything became a potential resource for him!

Just as exemplified by the immense mountain moments prior, under the pervasive influence of the Ashen Law, it was transmuted into Jiang Ye's energy reservoir, subsequently fueling the destruction within the thousand-mile radius.

"The Ashen Law has attained the Eight Breaks."

"Considering my current might, if I were to confront those two subordinates of Hei Qing again?" Jiang Ye's eyes gleamed with unwavering confidence: "Even without depleting my energy reserves, I could dispatch them with utmost ease."

Jiang Ye held a deep understanding.

Despite both being at the Eight Breaks level, the inherent power of laws far surpassed any mysterious or enigmatic force.

"Hmm."

"My Mystery of Earth has also ascended to the mid-stage of the Eight Breaks." Jiang Ye mused silently.

Following this recent engagement, his overall strength had undergone seismic leaps.

This surge in power ignited an irrepressible craving within Jiang Ye.

Combat! Carnage!

It was only through relentless conflict that he could accelerate his path to greater strength, and the present juncture represented the most opportune moment.

"Let us depart."

Jiang Ye rose to his feet: "To the Black Water Star Domain."

This Xuanwu Star, being a desolate celestial body devoid of any promising opportunities, naturally held no reason for him to linger.

Swiftly.

Jiang Ye rejoined Zi Yaozhi and the others, and together they proceeded towards the location of the star array.

...

Within the Black Water Star Domain, amidst a somber, dimly lit world.

"Captain."

"The situation appears grim." Zi Yaozhi consulted the map, her brow furrowed: "It seems we have been erroneously teleported into the 'Nether River Domain,' a sector designated as a high-risk zone within the Black Water Star Domain!"

"Nether River Domain?" Jiang Ye inquired, examining the map.

The Black Water Star Domain, despite its appellation, was actually anchored by a continent of staggering immensity.

This continental landmass spanned light years, representing a unique marvel within the star domain's strategic landscape.

Within its vast expanse, countless perilous regions were scattered.

The Nether River Domain was distinctly marked on the map as one such hazardous area... characterized by eerie, spectral green rivers, contact with which could spell doom even for powerhouses at the Eight Breaks level.

"Nether River Domain."

"It appears this location also serves as a primary junction for the Black Water Star Domain?" Jiang Ye made note of this fact: "Over thirty percent of the Starry Sky Corridors within the entire star domain battlefield converge here."

"What?"

"Could this imply that numerous formidable alien cultivators might materialize in this area?" Zi Yaozhi and the others' expressions shifted with alarm.

However, Jiang Ye's lips curved into a subtle smile.

"A zone fraught with such peril is, in fact, a place of great fortune for me."

"Let us proceed," Jiang Ye commanded. "There are bound to be abundant opportunities within this region; I only hope they have not yet been claimed."

Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!

Under Jiang Ye's direct guidance, their group swiftly advanced towards the inner reaches of the Nether River Domain.

...

Not long after Jiang Ye and the others had departed.

"Buzz buzz~"

A sudden vibration coursed through the void.

Invisible forces surged, and subsequently, two figures materialized from the disruption.

One was clad in resplendent golden dragon robes, wielding a long spear, his golden irises radiating an intensely overbearing aura.

The other figure was adorned in a simple white dress, with immaculate white silk socks, a celestial beauty whose loveliness was unparalleled.

Had Jiang Ye still been present, he would have recognized them instantly.

The latter was none other than 'Wang Zilu,' an individual he had crossed paths with on several occasions within the Star Realm Sea.

As for the former, he was, naturally, the prodigious talent hailing from the Huanglong Civilization, famously known as Prince Zijun.

"Just now, was that...?"

Wang Zilu's gaze followed the disappearing figures into the depths of the Nether River Domain, a flicker of uncertainty clouding her peach blossom eyes.

"What troubles you?" Prince Zijun inquired, casting a glance in her direction.
