Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill Chapter 662:Law Of Light 2
Previously on Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill...
Memories from his previous world quietly surfaced within his mind. He remembered the strange theories humanity had developed after centuries of scientific observation.
Light behaved like a wave capable of interference and diffraction, yet under different circumstances it acted like individual particles carrying discrete packets of energy. These two seemingly contradictory characteristics existed at the same time, and neither could fully explain the other alone. Scientists had accepted this paradox because reality itself refused to fit neatly inside human logic.
At that moment, cultivation and science no longer appeared as opposing paths. Instead, they became two different languages describing the same truth. One sought understanding through meditation and enlightenment, while the other pursued knowledge through observation and experimentation. Their methods differed, yet both pointed toward the same destination. The Law of Light was simply the complete truth standing above them both.
As the comprehension continued flowing into his soul, countless fragmented ideas naturally connected together. Questions that had once seemed impossible quietly found their answers, while mysteries that ordinary cultivators regarded as miracles gradually became principles that could be understood. The more Ethan comprehended, the less mysterious the Law became. Instead of appearing distant and unreachable, it felt astonishingly natural, as though it had always existed inside every ray of sunlight and every star shining across the heavens. The system merely removed the veil that prevented him from seeing it.
Time quietly passed while a gentle golden radiance slowly spread across Ethan's body. The glow first covered his fingertips before flowing across his arms, chest, and face until his entire figure seemed to merge with the surrounding light. Countless tiny golden particles floated around him like miniature stars, filling the tent with warm brilliance that neither blinded the eyes nor caused discomfort. The light carried an indescribable sense of peace, yet hidden beneath its calm appearance rested overwhelming power capable of reducing mountains to ash if its true nature were unleashed.
Fortunately, the ancient array surrounding the tent activated on its own. Layer after layer of ancient runes emerged across the barrier and quietly absorbed every fluctuation escaping from Ethan's body. The formation isolated the terrifying aura completely, ensuring that not even a single trace leaked beyond the tent. Ethan had already learned from previous experiences that releasing every bit of newly gained power at once only invited unnecessary trouble, so he patiently restrained every surge of energy while allowing the comprehension to settle naturally into his foundation.
As the final fragments of understanding fused with his soul, the dazzling brilliance gradually softened. The countless golden particles slowly disappeared, the radiant glow surrounding his body steadily faded, and the tent eventually returned to complete silence. Ethan opened his eyes at last, and a faint golden light briefly flashed deep within his pupils before quietly disappearing. He exhaled a long breath while an involuntary smile slowly formed across his face.
"The Law of Light..."
"It truly is incredible."
Ethan slowly opened his eyes and quietly felt the changes inside his body. After comprehending ten percent of the Law of Light, his entire mind felt incredibly clear. Every thought flowed smoothly, and his senses had become much sharper than before. Even the mana around him appeared different. Tiny fluctuations that he could barely notice in the past had now become as obvious as ripples spreading across a calm lake.
He slowly raised one hand.
A small ball of light quietly gathered above his palm.
It did not contain much mana, yet it looked strangely pure. The light was perfectly stable without the slightest fluctuation. It quietly floated there as if it had always belonged in his hand.
A faint smile appeared on Ethan's face.
"The Law really is something else."
He could already feel the enormous difference brought by only ten percent comprehension.
However, he did not become blinded by excitement.
His eyes soon shifted toward another reward.
EX-rank 5% Law of Chaos Comprehension.
Ethan looked at it for several moments before slowly shaking his head.
"Not now."
The Law of Chaos was far more mysterious than the Law of Light. Even reading its description made him feel a strange sense of danger. He had only just finished absorbing one Law, and forcing another one into his mind immediately afterward might overwhelm his consciousness.
If his mind collapsed because of greed, everything would become meaningless.
"I'll leave it for later."
With that thought, Ethan shifted his attention toward another reward.
EX-rank Supreme Body Art.
The moment he selected it, another enormous stream of knowledge rushed into his mind.
Countless cultivation methods, breathing techniques, body tempering diagrams, and ancient runes rapidly flashed before his eyes.
Several minutes quietly passed before Ethan finally understood the name of the technique.
Eternal Celestial Body Art.
It was not an ordinary body cultivation technique.
Instead of simply strengthening muscles or hardening bones, it tempered every part of the cultivator's existence.
Flesh.
Blood.
Bones.
Organs.
Meridians.
Soul.
Even the smallest cells inside the body had to be tempered repeatedly.The cultivation process was equally terrifying.
It required absorbing the power of heaven and earth while using extreme elemental energy to repeatedly destroy and rebuild the body.
Lightning.
Flames.
Extreme cold.
Heavy gravity.
Each stage demanded a different kind of tempering.
The body would first be broken apart.
Only afterward would it be rebuilt into something stronger.
Every breakthrough followed the same principle.
Destruction.
Reconstruction.
Perfection.
The stronger the external force, the greater the improvement.
The stronger the pain endured, the stronger the body became.
After completely reading the inheritance, Ethan slowly frowned.
"This might be hard."
It was not because the technique was weak.
On the contrary...
It was simply too demanding.
Cultivating this Body Art required enormous resources, terrifying endurance, and countless dangerous environments. A single mistake during cultivation could seriously injure the body.
Even Ethan could not help but feel troubled.
He rubbed his forehead before letting out a helpless sigh.
"I'll leave this for later too."
After calming himself down, his eyes finally settled on another reward.
EX-rank 5,000 Years of Martial Insight.
Compared to cultivating the Body Art, absorbing pure martial comprehension carried much less risk.
Without hesitating any longer, Ethan immediately chose to absorb it.
The next instant...
BOOOOM!
A powerful wave of invisible energy erupted inside his body.
It did not spread outside because the ancient array completely sealed every fluctuation inside the tent.
An enormous whirlpool of martial knowledge poured directly into Ethan's consciousness while countless scenes rapidly flashed before his eyes.
He saw ancient battlefields stretching beyond the horizon.
He saw countless warriors exchanging blows.
He saw masters wielding swords, spears, sabers, halberds, fists, bows, and countless other weapons.
Every battle carried a different lesson.
Every strike contained profound understanding.
Every victory had been paid for with blood.
Crack...
Crack...
Crack...
Soft crackling sounds echoed from Ethan's body.
His muscles tightened.
His bones vibrated.
His blood surged through his veins like a rushing river while every part of his body rapidly absorbed the accumulated experience.
The knowledge did not remain inside his mind alone.
It slowly became instinct.
Every movement.
Every stance.
Every breath.
Every swing of a weapon.
Everything quietly transformed as thousands of years of battle experience merged with Ethan's own understanding.
His aura gradually became steadier.
Sharper.
More mature.
Although his cultivation realm had not increased, the pressure surrounding him silently changed.
It carried the calm confidence of someone who had fought through countless wars.
Even Ethan himself could clearly feel the difference.
His understanding of combat was rising at an unbelievable speed.
