This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder - Chapter 647

The ease with which his divine world manifested, even if illusory, was astounding. Although it was the second iteration of the World Fusion Method, he still had to spread and expand his divine world as an illusion first.

Tianyi didn’t think it was because he had already gone through this process once, which meant that the nameless system had become more accommodating of his improved spacetime world—or at the very least, more susceptible.

Of course, the most likely scenario was that the nameless system had not finished absorbing the first spacetime divine world. Although the connection had gotten blurry, Tianyi could still sense the first spacetime divine world.

Unlike before, he could sense every part of the nameless system, not just the part his divine world first covered. Granted, it was murky, but it facilitated the world fusion.

Once the illusory world reached its peak, Tianyi did not materialize it. Instead, he broke down the very foundation of the spacetime divine world and released it into the nameless system as quintessence.

Although the World Will knew of Tianyi’s danger, it couldn’t resist the allure. It grabbed onto the spacetime divine world’s quintessence and absorbed it with all its might. Tianyi felt the familiar sensation again.

As a test, he tried to stop the process, but the World Will would not allow it. It continued to pull the spacetime divine world’s quintessence like a starving wolf.

Tianyi endured the sensation, waiting for the right moment. He broke down more of the spacetime divine world and released it, forcing it into the nameless system. The absorption speed couldn’t keep up with the output.

The process wasn’t without a price. The spacetime divine conduit’s consciousness had to endure tremendous pressure the entire time. It was akin to a person slowly slicing their body apart, cell by cell. Ignoring the pain, just going through it took an iron will.

Finally, when he felt that he had infiltrated the nameless system enough, he materialized his spacetime divine world. He started the fusion and pulled the spacetime quintessence from the World Will’s clutches.

The World Will would never spit out what it had already swallowed, so it resisted. This resistance made it easier for the two worlds to become one.

Once again, Tianyi felt countless insights pouring into his mind. With the foundation of the first experience, his true body absorbed them while his spacetime divine conduit focused on merging the two worlds.

Although the precise method changed, the core remained the same. Having already experienced it once, the process went smoothly in the early stages.

Tianyi also took this chance to attempt raising his mastery of the Law of Wood and the Law of Metal to the divine level. The Law of Wood succeeded, but the Law of Metal was still at an impasse.

Since he couldn’t succeed, Tianyi focused on the other laws, like the Law of Light or the Law of Darkness. The Law of Yin and the Law of Yang also made progress, but compared to the elemental laws, Tianyi surmised that the nameless system did not contain these two laws at the divine level.

On a side note, the Law of Wind surprisingly reached the divine level. As the process continued, Tianyi learned why. Unlike the Three Thousand Immortal Realms System, the nameless system’s world was built with the foundation of the Law of Fire, the Law of Wind, the Law of Earth, and the Law of Water.

It reminded him of the Avalon System. However, in addition to these four laws, it included the Law of Light and the Law of Darkness as part of its foundation. Still, that was not something he should dwell on.

Although Tianyi felt like he had progressed farther, his spacetime conduit’s will reached its limit. Like the first failure, he lost control of the spacetime divine world, although he could still sense its connection.

Once more, Tianyi reviewed the entire process. Although there were some hiccups in his method, the general process went well. What’s dragging me down is my willpower.

Although Tianyi had mastered several divine-level laws at this point, his willpower was playing catch-up. Compared to other divinities, his willpower could only be considered half-divine. It was no weakness of his, as the consciousness of an entire universe more than made up for his weaker willpower.

However, because the World Fusion Method relied entirely on a single conduit, which did not possess his universe-level consciousness, his weak willpower became conspicuous. The process of fusion improved his willpower, but only marginally.

Tianyi regretted not focusing on training his willpower before entering the Immortal Realm. The stronger a cultivator was, the harder it became to train their willpower through conventional methods. Considering the creation of the Nine Heavens Universe upon entering the Immortal Realm, conventional methods for immortals could not apply to him. In other words, Tianyi had lost the best period to train his willpower.

Of course, he could use his Nine Heavens Universe to swallow up the nameless system, but that would be putting the cart before the horse. It was not that Tianyi was unwilling to risk his Nine Heavens Universe, but it should be used on the Three Thousand Immortal Realms System and not some small system.

For now, Tianyi would work on perfecting the World Fusion Method and then train his willpower. The constant attempts, which wore down the World Will, and the perfection of the World Fusion Method should allow him to succeed the third time.

For now, Tianyi calmed down and focused on raising the level of the Law of Metal, the Law of Light, and the Law of Darkness. A few thousand years later, he reached the divine level in the Law of Metal.

After that, Tianyi formed the third-generation spacetime divine conduit. He didn’t bother hiding and entered the nameless system with it. Upon entering, the World Will immediately sensed him, but Tianyi could feel that it was sluggish, like the sleepiness that came after a full meal.

Compared to the first and second times he attempted the World Fusion Method, it was countless times smoother. Tianyi should have been happy, but he wasn’t. He suspected that mastery over the five elemental divine laws boosted his chances, but it was still far too easy.

The only hiccup was in the final few moments, but the pressure on the spacetime divine conduit’s will never exceeded the first or second attempt.

It sounded like a good thing, meaning repeated attempts could weaken the Heavenly Dao until it was ripe for the taking. But Tianyi didn’t forget that the Heavenly Dao was a World Will countless times more powerful and with its own set of logic.

If he failed the first time, he didn’t know what the Heavenly Dao would do. He didn’t know what would happen to his mother if the Heavenly Dao was forced into a corner or realized Tianyi’s ploy.

So, he had to succeed on the first attempt.

The success of the World Fusion Method did not drastically increase Tianyi’s power. Compared to the nameless system, the Nine Heavens Universe was still infinitely more powerful. The only difference was that the nameless system allowed him to comprehend the worldly laws faster.

That was a powerful cultivation accelerator that would make countless cultivators envious enough to murder.

His spacetime divine conduit had become the system itself, meaning that its body was the conduit’s body. Although the system could move, it would be incredibly slow, a far cry from its former speed. The conduit’s energy reservoir had increased, but the system still had the same weakness as a materialized divine world.

It wasn’t without defenses, though. Tianyi could condense a divine avatar. It was practically no different from his spacetime divine conduit’s original body except that it did not have a divine world. It could generate energy and hold a vast reserve of divine essence.

The divine avatar could leave the system too. It must have been the method the Trimurti used during the Godsfall War. Of course, creating such a divine avatar was not without cost, as it used up part of the system’s foundation. As long as the divine avatar was not destroyed and returned to the system, it could absorb the avatar and restore its foundation.

In addition, Tianyi discovered that he could create life much more easily. He didn’t have to master any grand or powerful law. It was an action closer to instinct. Although the nameless system didn’t have reincarnation, it was still beneficial for Tianyi nonetheless.

By applying the principles of the nameless system to his Nine Heavens Universe, the reincarnation cycle ran smoother. The number of newborn souls increased. Correspondingly, so did the birthrates.

His Nine Heavens Universe became more perfect, but what made Tianyi happier was that he could use the nameless system to train his willpower.

By splitting parts of his willpower and consciousness, he could incarnate them in the nameless system. Those incarnations would experience life, grow up, age, and mature. After they died, or when he felt like it, he could take it all back and use those experiences to raise his willpower.

One incarnation might not even raise a modicum of his willpower, but what about ten thousand, a hundred thousand, millions?

That brought the question: why did the Trimurti populate his system with only his incarnations? Now that he had taken over a system, Tianyi knew that he could allow ordinary life to rise too, so why didn’t the Trimurti?

Was he that intent on raising his willpower? But what was his purpose? Did he want to take over another system?

Although once a divinity fused his divine world with a system he could no longer dematerialize it, that didn’t mean they couldn’t absorb more systems. They simply needed to move their system toward another system and crash into it. From there, they would attempt to absorb the second system.

Granted, Tianyi didn’t know the exact conditions. Perhaps a stronger willpower would expedite the process. Speaking of which, he wondered how many systems the Trimurti System had absorbed. Perhaps the three gods were born because it tried to absorb another system that a divinity had already taken over?

Tianyi didn’t think it was likely. The chances of a divinity actually succeeding with the World Fusion Method were less than one percent. With the low number of divinities and such low odds, the chances of two systems, each having been taken over by a divinity, were infinitesimally small.

It was food for thought.

Tianyi dubbed the newly fused system the Spacetime Divine System. Spacetime because the conduit majored in the Law of Spacetime. Divine because a divine world had fused with it to become one.

By that naming scheme, the old Veda System should be known as the Trimurti Divine System.

Knowing he was on borrowed time, Tianyi began working on splitting his consciousness to reincarnate them. He kept a bare minimum to keep the Spacetime Divine System running, and that was it. He wasn’t too worried about invasions since he had his Nine Heavens Universe conduits guarding it.

Tianyi wanted to see how much of an effect it would have on his willpower before resorting to his second plan. He spent nearly sixty thousand years just to complete the World Fusion Method, and he knew that each second wasted lowered the chance of freeing his mother.

That didn’t mean Tianyi had given up on finding other systems. He wanted to see if he could merge two systems he conquered into one. If he could, that would expand his options and give him much more leeway than he expected.

He didn’t give up on raising his mastered laws to the divine level either. The more laws he had at the divine level, the easier it would be to conquer the Three Thousand Immortal Realms System.

Time passed as Tianyi implemented his plan, and another ten thousand years passed.
