The small black hole seemed insignificant facing the golden sphere, yet when the collision happened, an odd, almost eerie silence spread about across the world. Anyone who saw this sight may think that they were hallucinating, and the reason for that was…

The sphere that seemed to contain all of heaven's laws, hold an immense amount of power that was incalculable, and a size that looked as if it encompassed all creation started to tremble as it came into direct contact with the black hole.

Yan Zaizen, as the black hole, felt a flow of power drench his entirety. In his mind, a thought so grand emerged.

Exceed. The. Heavens!

These three words echoed endlessly, yet it seemed as if it had only been spoken once!

Yan Zaizen paid rapt attention to the feeling he garnered from direct contact. It was like being bathed in silk and milk, continually washing his soul, laws, and consciousness in a pure, overwhelming force. However, this power seemed obedient and fearful.

He came to the conclusion that the reason there was no sound of thunderous nature emitting from the sphere was because...it was afraid! That's right, it trembled and grew absolutely silent in fear. It was as if the black hole was its most fearsome enemy in this world, one where it couldn't help to overcome despite its vastness in size of power.

”Incredible! To think...it worked,” Yan Zaizen said somewhat absentmindedly. When he first heard about the heavenly tribulation a sovereign had to overcome, one related purely to the soul. He thought about Tao[1] in the Xiantu Realm. They courageously broke a heavenly oath willingly, and Yan Zaizen had fought against the tribulation lightning with a ferocity beyond any he'd displayed before at that time.

When he held victory, he also was capable of absorbing the remnant Heavenly Aura that lingered for cultivation purposes. This Heavenly Aura wasn't massive in the grand scheme of things, but that was because Tao was relatively weak at the time and didn't provoke a strong enough tribulation.

His original intention was to create a massive tribulation and overcome it, but not by force, but by devouring it! He speculated that, by devouring the source power of the heavenly tribulation, he would be able to rapidly accelerate his cultivation and reach profound heights. He was currently on a deadline in the Fortune Cemetery where Heavenly Creation Realm experts exist, but his cultivation was remarkably weak, formerly at the Second-Floor of the Heavenly Genesis Realm.

However, he only had a general outline of how to do this.

Unfortunately, his soul cultivation was weakened, and he couldn't even begin to accomplish this. This changed after his Dao had merged with his Soul, becoming inseparable, yet far, far more potent than before. After a little bit of analyzing and planning, he decided to accomplish this when he had the opportunity.

Then, he was attacked randomly by a Yaoguai with strength at the Ninth-Floor Heavenly Genesis Realm. It reminded him that he didn't have to time nor luxury to actually wait. When he was being smacked around, he knew his current strength couldn't defeat this Yaoguai, so traveling would be even more perilous than ever before, and likely...he could and would die to anyone who becomes greedy for his possessions.

This was why he decided to do the seemingly suicidal action of entering the Yaoguai's mouth, to slowly absorb its heaven heart. Initially, he didn't know he could directly consume the Yaoguai for its insights. When this was known, all of his plans seemed to come together.

However, even then, it seemed like his time was limited. Somehow, somewhere, someone had interfered with his near-prophetic instinct. Later, he recalled Pinaka's original words when she told him about Non-Entities.

They were the most desirable bodies for experts because of their pure, untainted mind. This meant his time was even further limited as he was definitely being hunted by someone. While his enemies lurked in the shadow, his instincts towards the future being suppressed, and surrounded by demons that could kill him with a swipe, he pushed himself to the furthest possible limit under this immense pressure!

Yan Zaizen devoured the golden sphere in a remarkably fast speed. It took three literal blinks of an eye before the immensity of the golden sphere had seemed to flow like water into a never-ending depth of a hole. All of its heavenly aura, might, tribulation power, and essence was absorbed in its entirety. As he felt this power surge into his soul, he felt his avatars of law glow brilliantly. They emitted light of their respective laws with a profound connection to the heavens.

”After devouring heaven...I wonder how strong I've become?” Yan Zaizen's mind quickly calculated, but he couldn't come to any proper assessment. He sensed his original body and inspected his Heavenly Shrine. When he did, he felt elated.

His Heavenly Shrine was an abnormality amongst Heavenly Shrines, containing unique abilities of his Soul Bloodline to devour any and all forms of heavenly materials and processing them rapidly beyond any standard, while also containing a unique mimicry base that allowed it to absorb any and all heavenly materials.

His Heavenly Shrine had devoured the Heaven Heart of the royal-class Yaoguai and body, using its materials to help construct his seventh and eighth levels, with its Ninth-Level in the process of being created. He reverted back to his original soul form state. He smirked slightly, feeling immensely satisfied with his discoveries.

”To think I've reached such a high level of comprehension of the heavens, could I have truly devoured heaven itself?” As he pondered over these matters, he couldn't help but be taken aback at the thought. The heavens were an entity that was hard to describe. It wasn't a universe, a world, or a lifeform. In fact, it could be considered a machine that could, at times, be and become any and all things necessary. It was an awesome concept, and it was always ever-present like an omnipotent god.

If there was a god in this world, a true god, then the heavens were it.

The reason why he couldn't help but think that he devoured the heavens themselves were because of his law realms. Outside of his Imperial Laws, all of his Laws from Mortal to World has reached the Peak of the Sovereign Realm! His will was in much the same way as the will of the heavens!

If heavenly cultivators steal until they can build, then Yan Zaizen just stole the heavens original house keys in one fell swoop!

Even in his soul form state, he could feel the heavenly laws that encompassed the entirety of the world. From Light, to Yang, to Sound, to Bones, to Death. The invisible laws that governed all things were as visible to him as the ground, the grass, or the gloomy clouds in the sky. He could see why the ladder that was laws were shifted and how.

It was fascinating!

If he wanted, with a thought, a single thought, he felt it possible to cause the heavens to punish all those he wished! Because he could become the heavens!

If there was a level that could be described as what he seemed to feel, then perhaps the Nascent-Level of the Heavenly Law.

As he was immersed in this profound state of heavenly bliss, the three giants above looked towards Yan Zaizen with an empty expression. However, they didn't attack. Instead!

Something absolutely unimaginable happened.

They, those figures billions of kilometers in size, KNEELED!

Yes, kneeled!
