Long River Eternity

At this critical moment, Lin Ding's expression hardened, and he quickly formed hand seals while chanting incantations.

In an instant, the surrounding chaotic energy seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, frantically converging from all directions. It surged violently in the air, as if it were alive, gradually condensing into several thick water dragons.

The water dragon's body was winding, its scales shimmering with a ghostly light, and it was surrounded by water vapor as it soared into the sky with a majestic aura.

They roared, their voices shaking the heavens, their enormous dragon heads raised high like towering mountain peaks, charging towards the rain of heavenly fire with unstoppable momentum.

As the water dragon opened its blood-red basin, attempting to swallow the heavenly fire whole, a flash of light appeared at the center of each fireball, revealing profound runes.

The runes shimmered with a mysterious light, as if they were ancient incantations, containing a chilling power.

The moment the enormous water dragon came into contact with the heavenly fire, a shocking scene unfolded.

The heavenly fire seemed to possess the ability to penetrate everything, like sharp spears that pierced through the water dragon's body without any hindrance.

Immediately afterwards, the raging flames spread rapidly, igniting the water dragon.

The water dragon struggled painfully, emitting mournful cries, but it could not escape the corrosive force.

Finally, they exploded and scattered, turning into sparkling sparks that vanished like shooting stars into the world, leaving only nothingness.

"In the end, you're only at the Harmony Realm and can't yet use the power of laws. Once you integrate the power of laws into your attacks, your so-called chaotic energy will be utterly useless." Fen Tian spoke coldly, his voice as sharp as an icicle, carrying a hint of disdain and mockery.

"Is this the true power of the Fire Law, which burns everything? It can even ignite water," Lin Ding muttered to himself.

This was his first real confrontation with a Dominator Realm expert, and also the first time he had faced the power of laws at such close range.

The terrifying power left him momentarily at a loss, a sense of powerlessness he had never felt before welling up inside him. But deep in his eyes, a hint of unwillingness and stubbornness flickered.

Although in Yang An's memory, he had indirectly participated in the extremely brutal Battle of the Ten Crows.

That memory was like a vivid painting, yet veiled by a thin layer of gauze. He could truly perceive all the scenes and atmospheres, and every detail seemed to be right before his eyes.

However, the mysterious and powerful force of law is like a giant dragon hidden deep in the clouds, difficult to touch.

In his memory, he could clearly feel the intense heat of the true fire of the sun, but the solar law, which contained endless mysterious power, was like a mirage; no matter how hard he tried, he could not feel its true power.

At this moment, he faced the overwhelming heavenly fire sweeping down from the sky, distorting the space into blurry patches of light and shadow wherever it passed.

The fire element contained within it unleashes a terrifying heat capable of incinerating the entire world.

The power of this Fire Law is like the difference between the bright moon and a firefly compared to the faint, almost negligible, power of the unknown law that the Azure Tiger left in Lin Ding's body.

However, misfortunes never come singly.

Just as he was dealing with the terrifying heavenly fire, disaster struck one after another. As the heavenly fire got closer and closer to him, the scorching heat was like countless sharp fire blades, slowly eroding the chaotic energy barrier on his body.

The chaotic energy barrier was like an indestructible fortress, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.

But at this moment, under this terrifying heat, it was gradually ignited, and the flames spread wildly across the barrier like blooming red lotuses.

Soon, the flames burned through the chaotic energy barrier, and the instant the barrier disappeared, a cold and evil law of fear, like a black lightning bolt, instantly eroded Lin Ding's spirit.

At the same time, heavenly fire crashed down on him. He tried to dodge, but his body froze in mid-air as if he had been frozen in place.

The last thing he saw was a sky full of fire, like burning meteors, hurtling towards him with the force of destruction.

Immediately, everything went black before Lin Ding's eyes, as if he had returned to the void he had been trapped in when he was seriously injured and unconscious by Cang Hu.

He couldn't feel his body, felt no emotion, and didn't know if he was falling or standing still. It was as if he was just a consciousness, drifting in the void, just like the last time.

But the only difference was that this time his consciousness did not become increasingly murky as it had last time; instead, he remained perfectly clear-headed.

"Am I dead?" Lin Ding wondered to himself.

After all, his final scene was surrounded by a raging inferno; if he were hit, he would be instantly reduced to ashes with no chance of survival.

Lin Ding used the method Yang An had taught him to try to control himself and move in the void.

However, in the void, there is no sense of space, but there is a concept of time. Lin Ding did not know whether a second or a year had passed, nor did he know whether he had moved. The surroundings were always dark.

Soon, Lin Ding abandoned his plans and let himself drift aimlessly in the void.

With nothing to do, Lin Ding couldn't help but recall the fire law that Fen Tian had just used: "So that was the true power of the law, ignoring all external things and operating solely according to its own rules. Apart from other laws, nothing can affect its operation."

Only now has Lin Dingcai gained a direct experience of the power of laws and a new understanding of it.

As Lin Ding's thoughts continued to unfold, based on his understanding of the Law of Fire, he also gained a deeper understanding of the Law of Chaos.

Just then, a "pop" sound was heard, which was extremely clear in the completely silent void, and immediately pulled Lin Ding's thoughts back.

Lin Ding looked around and saw a white dot of light appear in the distance in a certain direction.

Driven by curiosity, Lin Ding once again controlled his body and moved towards the direction of the light source.

With the point of light as a reference, Lin Ding could clearly feel himself moving forward, because the point of light in front of him was rapidly getting bigger.

In a moment, the light appeared in front of him. As if the light had an unparalleled attraction for him, Lin Ding raised his hand and reached out towards the light without hesitation.

The instant it touched the point of light, a dazzling white light enveloped the entire void.

When the white light dissipated, Lin Ding's vision was no longer pitch black, but a dazzling space like a sea of ​​stars.

The Milky Way before my eyes is composed of clusters of dazzling and colorful nebulae, each with a different shape and characteristics, and constantly moving in space.

Just then, a nebula shimmering with lightning moved not far from Lin Ding, and Lin Ding involuntarily reached out to touch it.

However, just as his hand was about to touch the nebula, a fist-sized phantom materialized within it. As the phantom raised its hand, a bolt of lightning shot out from the nebula and struck Lin Ding's fingertip.

The lightning wasn't intense, but it was just enough to knock away Lin Ding's outstretched hand.

When Lin Ding tried to reach out again, the Thunder Nebula had already moved far away.

"The lightning just now actually contained the power of laws, and it was even more concentrated than the power of laws of the Burning Heaven." Lin Ding was extremely surprised.

At this moment, Lin Ding looked at his shocked fingers and was surprised to find that his fingers were translucent and their shape was not fixed. Sometimes they looked like fingers, sometimes like tentacles, and sometimes like tree branches.

Upon seeing this, Lin Ding hurriedly looked at his own body and discovered that it was also semi-transparent and had no shape at all, but rather a constantly changing phantom.

At this moment, the arm was actually just a tentacle extending from this phantom, which took the shape of an arm and a hand.

"What's going on? Is this my soul?" Lin Ding wondered, but quickly came to terms with it. "Well, since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it. Let's figure out where I am first."

Then, Lin Ding slowly floated forward.

During this time, I passed by many nebulae. Some nebulae were shaped like a long sword, while others resembled a pair of wings. Some moved at great speed, while others were entirely blood-red, like a drop of blood.

Lin Ding tried to reach out and touch the nebulae every time, but he was either shaken back by the phantoms that appeared in the nebulae, or his outstretched "hand" passed right through the nebulae as if there was nothing in front of him.
