Chapter 255: Great Dao and Nomological Laws
To calm the ma.s.ses, countries around the world announced that they would take on these two high-level monsters.
But the people were not fools. There were no concrete solutions, so they wouldn’t get fooled so easily.
The officials of the various countries naturally understood this.
Thus, the upper echelons of the countries quickly held a meeting to discuss how to take care of these two level-four monsters.
Someone suggested using a super nuclear weapon.
Super nuclear weapons were extremely powerful. The explosive fireb.a.l.l.s were dozens of kilometers in diameter, and their shock waves could cover thousands of kilometers. They were truly apocalyptic weapons.
Although monsters above level-three could absorb nuclear energy, they could not digest the impact and destructive power of the explosion.
They were very certain that a super nuclear weapon would definitely eliminate the two monsters from the Yun Country.
However, there was another problem involved.
As the destructive power of a super nuclear weapon was terrifying, the pollution to the environment would be devastating too.
According to real-time satellite monitoring, the two level-four monsters had not left Yun Country. If they attacked now, the power of the explosion would definitely affect the surrounding countries.
These neighboring countries would not agree.
Besides, Xia Country was also there.
They were a major country that wouldn’t be easy to deal with.
However, if they did not destroy the two monsters, more countries would suffer subsequently.
When they entered a deadlock, the signal source of the two level-four monsters on the satellite monitor suddenly disappeared.
This surprised everyone.
From the satellite images transmitted back, they could see the monster burrowing underground and disappearing without a trace.
However, no matter how the satellites attempted to detect them, they couldn’t be found.
Everyone was stunned.
Where would the monsters go?
Where will their next target be?
At once, the upper echelons of the countries fell into a panic.
The powerful countries under Masefield’s control were relatively calmer.
Masefield was confident that this monster tide was definitely Qin Chuan’s doing.
Qin Chuan wanted to show the world that without immortal cultivators, humans could defeat these high-level monsters.
At the same time, he was also putting pressure on himself in retaliation.
Inwardly, Masefield was well aware that he had been very successful in constantly defaming the cultivators and creating a negative public opinion. He had truly dealt a heavy blow to Qin Chuan’s immortal cultivation forces.
However, he did not expect Qin Chuan to be so tyrannical. He had allowed the monsters to destroy an entire country and even used those that were above level-three.
This made all his efforts go to waste.
Now, the ma.s.ses all over the world were looking forward to the return of the cultivators.
Some members of the anti-cultivation faction also woke up. Only immortal cultivators could eliminate the monsters and protect the world.
“Qin Chuan, you’re ruthless, but you’re too complacent. If I go down, I’m taking you with me.”
Masefield controlled multiple powers, and the weapons he had could destroy the world.
This was also the reason why he dared to go against Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan knew this as well, but he didn’t go too far. Now that he had achieved his goal, he would stop for the time being.
After this incident, both Qin Chuan and Masefield gave in and entered a cold war.
This was what Qin Chuan wanted to see.
However, due to the two level-four monsters, the countries’ officials had not come up with a concrete solution. The people lived in fear every day—afraid that these two monsters would descend upon their country one day.
The government officials had been searching for the signals of the two level-four monsters.
However, after searching for more than a week, even in Devil Sea, there was no sign of the two level-four monsters. Instead, they seemed to have disappeared.
Where there was no sign of the monster’s locations, the officials of countries had been researching them.
According to their data collected, the two monsters were at level-four.
Currently, they have found three abilities of level-four monsters: block out all detection, create a gravitational field with a radius of about five kilometers, and create a local earthquake.
Naturally, all the monsters had mastered Atomic Breath.
Atomic Breath was the monster’s signature killing move, and its might was unparalleled.
The Atomic Breath of a level-three monster could easily destroy a medium-sized city, so the destructive power of a level-four monster’s Atomic Breath would be even more terrifying.
Right now, since they could not detect the whereabouts of the level-four monsters, they could only increase their vigilance and reinforce the coastline’s defense and firepower reserves.
On the other side.
Within the sect, Qin Chuan sat cross-legged in the air as he seriously preached the Dao. Below him was a group of disciples.
In the past week or so, he had been preaching in the sect. When the preaching session ended today, he would have acc.u.mulated 50 Silver Upgrade Cards.
Through the lecture, everyone’s cultivation level had increased very quickly, and they had brought a lot of points to Qin Chuan.
In addition, through preaching, Qin Chuan discovered that his comprehension of the various Great Daos had greatly increased.
Looking at his realm, he didn’t seem to have changed much. However, Qin Chuan knew that his strength had increased significantly.
According to his inherited memories from the old lady, cultivation was actually comprehending the Great Dao.
And the vast universe was composed of countless Great Daos.
Moreover, the Grand Dao contained numerous nomological laws.
To become immortal, all cultivators had to grasp the laws.
After transcending the Immortal Tribulation and ascending to become an immortal, the True Qi in his body would transform into the power of nomological laws, which were Dharmic powers.
The main reason people couldn’t transcend their Immortal Tribulation was that their comprehension of the nomological insight they had to cultivate was insufficient.
The power contained within the nomological laws was extremely terrifying.
Qin Chuan was currently at the Nascent Soul Stage, so he could not come into contact with the nomological laws. At the very least, he had to reach the Soul Splitting stage.
There were two major realms between Nascent Soul and Soul Splitting.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, an immortal cultivator with a Heavenly Spirit Root would need two to three hundred years to reach this level.
Qin Chuan had the system and knew that there were many lands of legacy in this world. It wouldn’t be a problem for him to reach Soul Splitting within a short period of time.
Hence, Qin Chuan was already considering the first law he would choose.
As the saying went, there were three thousand Great Daos.
Each Great Dao contained many nomological laws.
In other words, the world had an endless number of these laws.
There were strong and weak laws.
The stronger the nomological law, the more difficult it was to grasp it.
The most common laws were metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Comprehending these five types of laws wasn’t too difficult. Moreover, if one comprehended all of them to a certain realm, they could fuse them into the Five Element Laws.
The Five Element Law was a very powerful nomological law with immense power.
However, it was already very impressive for an immortal cultivator to be able to comprehend and thoroughly understand a single nomological insight throughout their entire life.
Only extremely talented people could comprehend multiple laws.
These people were all mighty figures in the cultivation world.
In the legacy of the Heavenly Note Sect that Qin Chuan had obtained, the disciples of the Heavenly Note Sect basically cultivated the nomological laws of the Great Dao of Sound.
As for the old lady, she cultivated the most difficult type of nomological law in the Great Dao of Sound. It was called the Law of Silence.
The Law of Silence did not possess offensive power, but its effects were crazy.
The Law of Silence could mute all sound from the target, creating an absolutely quiet environment.
There are people who can still fight even if they can’t hear anything.
They couldn’t be compared to deaf people.
One had to know that there were many things in this world that one could not hear with one’s ears. More of it was listened to and comprehended with one’s heart.
Immortal cultivators had to communicate with the Heavenly Dao for permission in order to use the power of the nomological law.
However, without sound, it was impossible to communicate with the Heavenly Dao.
This way, without the Heavenly Dao’s nomological permission, it was impossible to use the power of laws.
After becoming an immortal, battles between immortals were mainly fights between nomological laws.
Someone without the power of laws was equivalent to an archer without a bow.
From this, one could see just how crazily powerful the laws of silence were.
The old lady’s comprehension of the laws of silence could only be said to be at the beginner’s level.
To most people, it was already not bad.
Qin Chuan had inherited memories of the old lady. As long as his cultivation level reached the standard, if he chose to cultivate the laws of silence, it would save him a lot of time.
Qin Chuan believed that as a control-type law, the effect of the laws of silence was quite impressive. Naturally, he had to cultivate it.
But the threshold was too high after all. Choosing it as the first law to cultivate would really take too long.
After considering all these, Qin Chuan felt that it was better to cultivate a simpler set of laws.
After all, cultivation was a very long process.
It was similar to gaming. If the early stages of development were difficult, it then remains unknown if there would be a later stage.
Qin Chuan’s plan was to ensure that the initial phase would be smooth sailing, so the later stages of cultivation would be easier.
Now, Qin Chuan came to the Purple Bamboo Forest. He had intended to use the 50 Silver Upgrade Cards he had acc.u.mulated to upgrade his cultivation technique.
