Chapter 319: The Human Emperor’s Law, the Will of Heaven’s Blade

"Fk, Ji Sheng took a wrong turn. I also underestimated the numerological techniques of this world. This is the Human Emperor’s Law," Qin Muye’s voice echoed in Ji Shan’s mind, making Ji Shan feel a bit overwhelmed.

"What’s the Human Emperor’s Law? Dad, stop shouting, you’re messing up my train of thought," Ji Shan said helplessly.

The two had different focuses, leading to different research directions and results.

Ji Shan was more like a traditional genius protagonist, practicing techniques and understanding the Dao, forming various magical powers and spells.

Qin Muye, on the other hand, pursued history, delving into principles, following a path of seeking truth from facts.

"It seems our gains are quite different. What did you discover?" Qin Muye asked with curiosity.

"I’ve added quite a bit to the framework of the alchemist, and I plan to name it ‘magical power.’ I’m currently using the Three Changes Law to try and cultivate my first magical power," Ji Shan said.

"Interesting. Take your time with it. I’m going to study the Human Emperor’s Law," Qin Muye replied. He was actually open to the latter part of the alchemist’s path. If he forced a fixed route, it would bury Ji Shan’s talent.

For Ji Shan, he had his own path to walk.

Ji Shan pouted at this: "You promised to split it fifty-fifty, but you didn’t give me your half."

"We were looking at the same content. You didn’t figure it out and are blaming me. Besides, with your personality, you wouldn’t be interested anyway." Qin Muye then transmitted the Human Emperor’s Law to him.

Sure enough, Ji Shan glanced at it and lost interest, as it was essentially a history.

It recorded the story of how the Human Emperor led humans using divination to develop agriculture and form civilization.

The Three Changes Law has three sections, each recording the history and legacy of a Human Emperor, though their surnames and names are not clearly mentioned.

However, at that time, people’s hearts were pure, and the Dao followed nature, making the original numerological techniques more powerful and precise.

More importantly, it seemed that the Human Emperor had a method to extend one’s lifespan or replace it with something else. Ji Shan didn’t know the specifics, and Qin Muye didn’t say, only mentioning that he was still researching it and would reveal the details later.

As for Ji Shan’s magical power, Qin Muye glanced at it but wasn’t interested, not because it wasn’t powerful enough, but because it wasn’t suitable for him, fitting better with Ji Shan’s alchemist spirit.

"The Will of Heaven is like a blade. Truly, you are the son of destiny. This is really smooth sailing," Qin Muye said with a strange expression.

He needed a blade to sever the Yellow Springs, and the Mystical Lord’s Seven Volumes Secret Book was clearly not suitable, nor was it qualified to be that blade.

Qin Muye had planned to wait until the seven volumes of the secret book were complete before creating the blade, but he didn’t expect Ji Shan to give him a blade blank.

"In ancient times, when there were no tides of spiritual energy, the Will of Heaven existed. This is really interesting."

The Will of Heaven was similar to the primordial Chaos, but seemed more proactive, not only rewarding good and punishing evil but also guiding the three Human Emperors to develop human civilization.

Thus, some of the supreme deities in this world were essentially variants of the Will of Heaven, commonly known as the Heavenly Father.

If he could use the Will of Heaven as a blade, Qin Muye would only need a bit of planning to sever the tributary of the Yellow Springs.

However, the problem was clear: where was the Will of Heaven?

From the Human Emperor’s Law, there was indeed a method to communicate with the heavens to perform shamanic rituals. Qin Muye temporarily sent a thought to the mortal world to use it, but there was no response, as if he were calling an empty number.

"So, the Will of Heaven is gone?" Qin Muye was somewhat stunned.

"No wonder the Yellow Springs invaded, and the tides of spiritual energy and other phenomena had no one to step forward and no one to see through the truth. It’s not that the Will of Heaven was ineffective, but that it was killed by the Yellow Springs in some long-ago era."

Now he was certain that the Human Emperor’s Law left by the indigenous supernatural beings was the true supernatural method, and spiritual energy and cultivators were the newcomers.

He also understood why the numerological techniques of more ancient times didn’t explain the reason for shortened lifespans. In those times, divination was more like a direct inquiry to the Will of Heaven.

Now, it’s different. Without the Will of Heaven, the original mode has changed from a listener to taking action on one’s own, which inevitably comes at a cost.

As for why Ji Sheng and other members of the Ji family didn’t discover the Human Emperor’s Law in the Three Changes Law, the reason was simple. It had nothing to do with insight but rather with knowledge. Qin Muye relied on his keen historical sense to notice this and then dug deeper into this long-extinct history.

Even with his tremendous insight, Ji Shan didn’t discover it. This was because different people had different specialties, and insight had its own divisions.

For Ji Shan, his insight was in Dao, techniques, and methods, whereas Qin Muye’s was in history. His ability to analyze and deduce from historical records was truly unparalleled, already restoring his former skills as a historian and mysticologist.

Back in the day, he could deduce the location and origin of ruins from the smallest details, so it was no surprise that he could identify the Human Emperor’s Law.

"The Will of Heaven’s Blade is gone?"

"That’s not right, it should still exist. Otherwise, such a coincidence wouldn’t be possible."

"Oh, Ji Shan is the son of destiny, so there’s nothing to worry about."

Qin Muye initially wanted to dismiss the coincidence, but then he remembered that the person who obtained the Three Changes Law was Ji Shan, not him. This made everything much more reasonable.

"There might still be a remnant. We need to find a way to uncover it." Qin Muye felt that the Will of Heaven wouldn’t be so easily eliminated.

Even if it were truly gone, Qin Muye would have to find a different blade.

Initially, the Will of Heaven’s Blade was just an unexpected bonus; Qin Muye hadn’t planned for it.

"I think it’s unlikely. Without the protagonist’s aura, it wouldn’t fall into my hands, but Ji Shan can." Qin Muye believed that since Ji Shan had obtained the Three Changes Law, he could also obtain the Will of Heaven.

Being the son of destiny was almost equivalent to having the protagonist’s aura.

In certain situations, it was even more useful, especially during world crises. As the son of the heavens, he would be prioritized for cultivation.

However, when it came to sheer power, the protagonist’s aura was still the ultimate bug, as it often defied logic. In contrast, being the son of destiny was more reasonable and required logical consistency.

For example, he had to have his identity in the Ji family to obtain the Three Changes Law; it wouldn’t just fall from the sky.

Whether the Will of Heaven existed or not didn’t affect Qin Muye’s plan to sever the tributary of the Yellow Springs that had invaded the spiritual energy tide.

If it existed, it would be a backup; if not, he would continue his efforts.

"The Flesh-Prolonging Scripture is complete."

Above the Yellow Springs, the Celestial Venerable One, seated on a six-petaled lotus of bones, blood, and ghosts, opened his eyes. Numerous terrifying corpses, covered in scales and armor, emerged from the water, resembling dragons and tigers.

This world naturally had beasts, but at this stage, there were no animals or plants that could transform into human form. Instead, the Yellow Springs had many beast souls and corpses.

These beast souls and corpses were using the Immortal Sand Soul-Returning Record and the Flesh Life-Prolonging Record to gradually retreat from death and resurrect.

However, the negative emotions of resentment and malice within them did not disappear; instead, they became even more intense due to their resurrection.

Qin Muye used the Earthly Might Summoning Record to stabilize their forms.

"An incomplete resurrection. The body and soul are stabilized, but the rest requires the Soul-Capturing and Ghost-Imprisoning Record to merge body and soul, the Great Yin Corpse Transformation Record to reverse death, and the Ascension Mystical Realm Fixed View Record to send them away from the underworld. Finally, the True Orthodoxy Descent of Holy Might Alliance Record to establish their legitimacy."

Currently, they were just separated living dead, mindless beings that could go mad at any moment.

Although he used the Mysterious Lord’s Seven Volumes Secret Book as the resurrection mechanism for his domain, it didn’t mean it was limited to this. A simple resurrection mechanism wouldn’t require such meticulous steps, as Qin Muye could use the endless abyss to form a much more powerful resurrection mechanism for spirits.

He studied these methods to gain a deeper understanding of the Yellow Springs and the principles of life and death. This was an excellent subject, a unique feature of this world. If he severed the Yellow Springs tributary in the future, he wouldn’t have the opportunity to study it.

Therefore, this project needed to be extensive, not just a minor task. If Qin Muye really wanted to complete the task, he had many methods, even SSS-level ones. However, he knew that missing this opportunity would be like entering a treasure mountain and returning empty-handed.

How could Qin Muye be content with that?
