Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven Chapter 460: A familiar law crystal
Just as quickly, seven distinct pillars of light crashed down and rapidly materialized around the Grand Arbiter. They were the seven personal disciples of the Arbiter. These seven individuals were widely known across the cosmos as the Seven Primes. They possessed terrifying authority, directly overseeing many vital military and political branches of the Pan-Cosmic Alliance.
"Everyone. Welcome to the Pan-Cosmic Human Alliance Tournament," the Grand Arbiter began to speak. His voice was not loud, yet it resonated clearly beside the ears of every single person on the planet. "Today, the most brilliant geniuses across the entire starry sky have gathered here for one supreme purpose. They are fighting for the esteemed title of Arbiter Candidate, and for the final reward reserved solely for the victor of this competition."
As he spoke, a profound light shone from his spatial ring. In the following second, a massive chunk of glowing crystal, large enough to cast a shadow over the entire arena floor, materialized high in the sky.
Every single expert present had a drastic change in expression when they felt the terrifying raw concepts radiating from it. Especially Grey.
"This right here, everyone, is the Law Crystal of the Myriad Law of Chaos," the Grand Arbiter declared. "I managed to encounter it by sheer chance inside a collapsing singularity at the very edge of our starry sky, and I was highly fortunate to extract it safely. It contains a supreme, primordial law. I have personally tried to comprehend it, but I have not even managed to enter Minor Succession yet. However, observing this Law Crystal alone was enough for me to easily comprehend all the other natural laws that exist in our universe. This specific law is a pure combination of everything in existence. This is my ultimate gift, combined with the generous contributions of the Emperors of the prominent Divine Kingdoms."
"You were with him when he found it, is that not right?" the Emperor of the Radiant Light Divine Kingdom whispered to the Emperor of the Cosmic Ascendant Divine Kingdom in the seating area below.
"Yes," the Emperor swiftly nodded, his eyes locked onto the massive crystal. "It is quite a terrifyingly mysterious law. Even I could not grasp a single fragment of it."
"Whoever manages to successfully comprehend it will, without a doubt, become a peerless genius the likes of which this cosmos has never seen," he added. The other Emperors sitting nearby nodded in solemn agreement.
Then, the Arbiter continued speaking, his voice pulling their attention back. "Aside from this supreme crystal, there are naturally many other elite privileges and resources that come with the victory."
And just as quickly, space distorted nearby. The Patriarch and the three main Elders of the Dragon Clan suddenly materialized directly around the Grand Arbiter’s seating area. The Dragon Patriarch had an incredibly arrogant, prideful look plastered on his ancient face, while the other elders kept their cold calm. They casually exchanged a few brief words with the Arbiter and then audaciously sat down in their luxurious seats even before the Arbiter himself took a seat.
But the Grand Arbiter did not seem to mind this blatant display of disrespect at all.
"For now, let us not waste any more time. Everyone, let the tournament officially begin!" The Grand Arbiter chuckled softly as he gestured toward his disciples, who immediately nodded back at him in unison.
Boom! The solid center of the grand stadium floor violently burst open. From the deep crater, a massive, highly advanced mechanical drone shot out. Strangely, its outer chassis was designed to look exactly like a giant, cartoonish raccoon.
"Hello, everyone! Welcome to the supreme Pan-Cosmic Tournament!" a loud, highly energetic robotic voice boomed from the drone. "I am completely sure everyone here is hyped to the maximum. Because so am I!"
"Countless peerless geniuses have gathered here today. This event will undeniably mark a significant turning point in the history of our great Alliance!" The giant raccoon drone spun in the air. "The tournament format will be a strict one-versus-one duel amongst all registered contestants. The victor will proudly continue advancing up the bracket, and the loser will be eliminated on the spot. No second chances!"
"Highly simple, right?" The raccoon drone cheered loudly. "With all the rules established, let us get the very first matches started!"
As soon as the announcer finished speaking, the fabric of reality itself visibly destabilized within the stadium bounds. The spatial dimensions of the arena floor violently shifted and expanded outward, bending physics to accommodate the massive scale of the battles. From the twisting void, two colossal, heavily reinforced combat arenas fully formed, ready for the first combatants to step up.
[Are you bored right now, Grey?] the Fragment asked after noticing the completely deadpan look on Grey’s face.
Grey replied inwardly.
[Are you sure you do not want to tell your parents about this?]
Grey added silently.[That is true. I just hope nothing irreversible happens,] the Fragment replied.
[But remember, Tian Yuan might be acting calm strictly because he is just a clone,] the Fragment cautioned. [He can also utilize world-breaking Source Power. Do not forget that, Grey.]
Grey replied calmly.
Hearing this, the Fragment froze. [But that is a one-time use! Are you sure you want to waste it here?]
[Hm.]
[By the way, many experts are actively glancing at you right now,] the Fragment noted.
