My attributes are increasing infinitely Chapter 394: Law of Energy

Beyond the borders of the Space Cube, the universe was far from tranquil.

The ripples caused by Ethan Hunt’s very presence had surged through various dimensions, eventually reaching the opulent palaces of the most ancient and dread-inducing powers within the Eternal Domain.

These were the Supreme Families—clans that had birthed Emperors of Destiny in ages past, legendary beings who once gripped the fate of the entire eternal domain in their hands.

In the current era, these seven lineages functioned as the world's shadow rulers.

Even the three thousand original races, who stood as the most arrogant and ancient species in existence, would show deference if a representative of these families entered their territories.

Their internal ranking system was straightforward yet terrifying.

The Ancestors sat at the pinnacle, dwelling within the Eternal Sovereign realm.

Positioned just below them were the Supreme Elders, known as Origin Paragons, whose immense power lingered only a single step away from the peak.

Seven figures were gathered in a circle inside the central hall of the Kizuki family.

Every individual was a Supreme Elder, and the very atmosphere warped with each breath they exhaled.

The Supreme Elder of the Kizuki family presided at the head of the table, his arm still in the process of regenerating from a wound caused by the World Tree’s radiance.

"That brat possesses a treasure capable of harming an Origin Paragon," the Kizuki elder remarked, his tone freezing and gravelly.

"I felt the breath of the Source within that light."

"If we do not eliminate him now, he will become a disaster that none of us can contain."

"A disaster?" an elder from the Hoshino family, who dwelt within the void, mocked with a sneer.

"He is a human. A bug."

"You were caught off guard, Kizuki. That is all."

"He killed thousands of candidates in a single strike, Hoshino," the Kizuki elder snapped back, his eyes burning with rage.

"And the Will of the Eternal Domain itself has contacted us."

"It wants him erased."

"However, the Will is restricted by the laws of the Trial."

"It can only allow beings up to the Axiom Dominion realm to enter the trial grounds."

"Anything higher would collapse the reality structure."

"Three Axiom Dominion generals from each family should be enough," the elder of the Storm-Callers proposed.

"Even if he has a treasure, he is still a single person."

"He cannot fight twenty-one Axiom generals at once."

"What about the Ancestors?" a woman from the Solar-Flare family inquired.

"Did yours give any command?"

The Kizuki elder shifted his gaze away.

"I tried to contact our Ancestor, but I failed."

"He is likely in a deep seclusion or busy with the affairs of the Higher Planes."

"Moreover to eliminate a pesky bug like this boy, I do not wish to disturb him."

"It would be a stain on our competence."

"Agreed," the others whispered in unison.

"Very well," the Kizuki elder concluded.

"We will send three Axiom Dominion generals per family."

"We will corner him, trap him, and then we will divide his secrets equally."

"Deal?"

"Deal."

As the seven families began mobilizing their legions, Ethan existed in a state that moved beyond the standard definition of a "protagonist."

Inside the Space Cube, time did not flow like a river; instead, it was a massive, unmoving ocean.

Due to the 100,000x time dilation, the ten days passing in the outside world equated to a staggering 2,740 years for Ethan.

Ethan was far from idle, however.

He utilized his infinite energy to power both his Infinite Comprehension and his Infinite Clones.

Ethan’s physical form was akin to an endless vacuum.

Within this void, 10¹⁰⁰ clones of Ethan sat in meditative poses.

This quantity—a Googol of clones—was so immense that if every clone represented a grain of sand, they would fill the entire cosmos several times over.

Every single clone inherited the World Seed bloodline.

And every clone was hard at work.

Every five seconds, a clone would manifest a world seed.

It would saturate the seed with infinite energy.

Then, it would embed the seed into Ethan’s very foundation.

1...

100...

10,000...

1,000,000...

Years dissolved into centuries.

Ethan had lost count of the numbers long ago.

His mind had fused with the synchronized labor of his clones.

He felt like a caretaker of a forest that stretched across the entire multiverse.

Eventually, 685 years concluded within the dilated zone.

Ethan opened his eyes.

The shimmering reflection in his pupils was no longer merely the glow of a star.

It was the radiance of a Googolplex of realities.

The quantity of worlds contained within him was so high that a mortal mind would have detonated instantly just attempting to conceptualize the first digit.

"Okay," Ethan muttered softly.

His voice echoed through the googol of clones.

"It is time for you to evolve together."

He threw open the gates of his Infinite Origin Sea.

The resulting energy drain surpassed anything the world had ever witnessed.

To provide for the expansion of a googolplex of worlds, Ethan drew a volume of energy that would have withered ten thousand universes into frozen husks in a blink.

But his energy was without limit.

As these worlds developed, an unusual phenomenon occurred.

In the realm of physics, energy is neither created nor destroyed.

Furthermore, the displacement of massive energy quantities always results in Entropy.

It serves as the metric for decay and disorder.

Because Ethan was shifting a Googolplex amount of energy, the entropy generated was so gargantuan that it started to take form as a physical law surrounding him.

Misty gray strands of decay began to circle the World Tree.

[Law of Entropy: 7%]

[7.00001%...]

[7.00002%...]

Ethan observed this with a hint of shock.

He had assumed that after the World Tree consumed the Creation Lotus, he would need to seek a different method to analyze negative laws.

However, through the simple act of evolving his inner worlds, the universe was forcing him to grasp the true price of power.

"I see," Ethan realized.

"Entropy is not just death."

"It is the footprint of energy."

He remained in this trance for the following 275 years.

Inside him, the world seeds were reaching maturity at an alarming pace.

They expanded from tiny seeds into full planets.

Those planets gave rise to suns.

The suns organized into galaxies.

The galaxies merged into universes.

The universes stacked into Chaos-verses.

Finally, they transitioned into Paradox Domains and Dimensions.

His strength wasn't just increasing—it was doubling by the billions every passing second.

He could feel his physical body becoming more resilient than any weapon of the Axiom Dominion.

When the Law of Entropy hit 10%, Ethan’s Infinite Comprehension talent suddenly surged to life.

A brilliant golden light collided with the gray fog of entropy.

A fresh epiphany struck him like a bolt of lightning.

If Entropy was the footprint, then there must be a foot that made it.

If a law existed for the decay of energy, there had to be a law for the Source of Energy itself.

He slipped into a profound trance.

This time, it wasn't merely the 10¹⁰⁰ clones working.

It was his entire being.

A millennium later, a new alert flashed in his mind.

[Law of Energy: 0.01%]

BOOM!

The moment those characters manifested, all of creation trembled.

Both the Negative Plane—the domain of the Presence—and the Positive Plane—the domain of the One Above All—shook violently.

Stars in every single galaxy flickered.

Gods of the lower realms toppled from their thrones in sheer panic.

The Law of Energy was a Genesis Law.

It represented the fundamental building block of the Cage.

To understand it was to possess the key to the cage’s lock.

In the highest reaches of the Positive Plane, a being composed of pure light, the One Above All, opened his eyes.

His face, typically a mask of calm indifference, was now shadowed by a rare feeling.

Confusion.

Simultaneously, within the abyss of the Negative Plane, The Presence halted his forging of a new reality.

He turned his attention toward the heart of the Eternal Domain.

"The second taboo has been broken," The Presence whispered.
