It was just as Gu Zichen had said!
For the King of the Laws, changing the Laws of Heaven and Earth was as easy as lifting a finger.
He could create an oasis with the snap of a finger, turn this place into a dry desert, and set it ablaze with raging flames.
So long as he wanted to, so long as he was willing, everything would be easy.
When he saw the old man, he knew he had no hope of becoming a god emperor. He was sure he knew full well that the old man he'd mentioned had the ability to do so.
His only hope was that this fellow would abide by his rules.
He would maintain absolute neutrality in everything. So long as it didn't affect the balance of the Laws, he wouldn't attack him.
In the end ….
He'd been too naive!
In the end, the old man made his move. The instant he did, he knew that if he persisted, he'd be throwing an egg at a rock.
But even if it was like throwing an egg against a rock, he still wanted to see how hard this rock was.
Was it really hard to the point where he felt despair?
Bound by the vines, he suddenly shrunk to the size of a sheet of paper, then burrowed through the gaps in the vines.
Before long, his body filled up once more, and he stepped into the sky.
"The King of the Laws altered the Laws. Shouldn't he bear the consequences of breaking them, just like us? When I roamed the planes, I once heard a saying …. "
"If the Son of Heaven breaks the law, he shall be punished like a commoner. Can you do that?"
The old man's gaze was indescribably benevolent. He lamented that his master had become like this.
"I can't!"
After a long time, the old man answered his mother's question.
Up in the sky, his master laughed maniacally, his eyes brimming with mockery. "You're quite straightforward. You used the Laws to bind us all. If we break them even a little, we'll be punished by your Master of the Laws. Yet you Masters of the Laws can wantonly break the rules you've set. If you don't set an example, how can the rest of us?
How can we abide by your Laws? "
"I've never broken the Laws!" said the old man coolly.
"What are you talking about? As Masters of the Laws, shouldn't you maintain absolute fairness? You treat all living beings with a balanced heart, maintain neutrality, and don't show any special favor to any race? "
"That's right, but what are you doing now? You're participating in the conflict between the Outside and the First Era. You're standing on the First Era's side and attacking me, the God King of the Outside. In order to restrain me, you even tampered with the rules of the Outer Realm Void and created such a vine? "Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
His master's eyes were filled with mockery.
"You're right!"
The old man affirmed his mother's words, but soon he said something that made everyone's eyes widen.
"However, this old man still did not break the rules, because this old man is the rules. Everything I do is in accordance with the rules of the world. You only need to abide, and I have to make the Laws reasonable. Just now, I felt that what I did was reasonable, so I did it. You just need to accept it! "
"Master" Xue Mo couldn't help but stand of his gaze.
It did not expect the old man to say something like that. It was stunned for more than ten seconds in the void.
Just like that, he looked at this old man whom he had known for a long time. No matter when he saw him, he felt that this old man was especially honest and kind. Yet, he had just said something so overbearing.
He was the Law. If he thought it was reasonable, then it was reasonable. Everyone else just needed to accept it!
"You … Old man, you've really impressed me!" he said angrily. "As for what you said, I stand on the First Era's side. I've never stood on the First Era's side. It's just that your various misdeeds have affected the balance of the Laws. You don't know how to repent. I'm just exercising my authority as the Master of the Laws and fulfilling my duties. As for the future?
As long as the conflict between the Outside and the First Era doesn't affect the balance of the Laws, I won't pay any attention! "
What a far-fetched excuse!
Up in the void, Her Majesty's face was filled with speechlessness and ridicule. Anyone could tell that the King of the Laws was twisting words and forcing logic from his mouth.
He could have admitted that he was leaning towards the First Era.
He was the Law, the King of Heaven, the Big Brother. You're not willing to endure it!
But he didn't say that. Instead, he used far-fetched words to explain that everything he did was his duty and duty.
"I understand. It seems there's someone above you …"
He pointed at the sky. The old man didn't confirm or deny it.
"That's great!"
Suddenly, it laughed loudly, "I thought the peak of this world was the God Emperor and you, old man. It'd be great if there's someone above you two. When I become the Godemperor, I'll naturally be able to come into contact with that person, right? "
"You won't be able to come into contact with him!"
"Why? If even you can come into contact with him, why can't I? "
"Because you can't become the Godemperor!"
With that, countless vines sprouted from beneath his feet.
Having suffered once, he was already on guard. The moment the vines touched him, he turned into a piece of paper and slipped through the gaps between the vines.
Little did he know that there was more than one vine in the sky this time.
Countless vines stretched out their tentacles to grab him. He passed through the vines in the form of a paper man.
Whoosh —
Suddenly, the Outer Realm turned into a sea of fire.
The flames burned only as far as he could. Everywhere else, not only were there no flames, but not even a trace of the flames' heat seeped out.
"Old man, do you really have to go to such extremes?"
He roared angrily as he frantically dodged the flames and vines. He didn't retaliate, but even so, dodging the vines and flames consumed a great deal of his divine power.
After a few short breaths of time, he sensed his divine power on the verge of drying up.
Was this the end of his dream of becoming the Godemperor?
No!
The future he'd imagined wasn't like this at all. He still wanted to become the Godemperor and seek answers to the questions he'd been worrying about for millions of years.
He ….
"I'm going all out!"
In the blink of an eye, its mother in the void suddenly split into hundreds of bodies.
These hundreds of them ran in different directions in an attempt to leave, but ….
Bang!
Before one of them could even get a thousand meters away, he slammed into a wall.
The King of the Laws had long since sealed off the space here!
It was just as Gu Zichen had said: it was far too easy for the King of the Laws to do this, whether it was the vines, the sea of fire, or the spatial isolation.
To him, it was all too easy!
"Grandpa Lin!"
At that moment, the sealed hundreds of them merged back into one.
