242 Can He Really Get It? (2/2)

\”That's the world of laws. It seems like it was really a good idea to bring you to this Dalin Universe. The laws here are really a lot easier to understand.\”

Krune was taken aback.

\”Does it mean that everyone can see it?\”

\”In a certain way, yes. But your case is special. Because of my link with your soul, I was able to see what you saw too. The way you see the world of laws is who knows how many times clearer than the others. Even I felt like understand laws would be easier in there.\”

Krune immediately felt excited! He had just used a few hours and had already grasped a little of the Law of Burning. Doesn't that mean that all laws will be that fast to understand too?

Light Spirit understood what Krune was thinking and laughed out loud.

\”Keep dreaming! Do you think that this is that easy? First of all, you didn't completely understand the Law of burning. In fact, you haven't understood even half of it. The more you try to understand, the harder it becomes.\”

Krune's happiness was cut short.

\”Couldn't you have waited for a little before saying that? I could have enjoyed my dream a little further!\”

Light Spirit then snorted.

\”Hmph! Do you think I care? Also, I'm only talking about the easy part. Now that you understood a small part of the Law of Burning, try to do the same with the other laws and see what will happen. Let's select an easy one, for example. Go ahead and try to understand the Law of Heat.\”

Krune nodded and concentrated once more. After this experience, he understood how his rainbow irises worked, so he did the same again.

Once more, his irises' colors started to move in a circular motion, and the world around him disappeared just like the last time. But it was at this moment that Krune was taken aback.

When he first was trying to grasp the Law of Burning, he could also feel the presence of the other Fire Laws. But this time, other than the Law of Burning, he almost couldn't feel the existence of any other. In fact, it looked like the entire place was being occupied by the Law of Burning alone! There were just small gapings here and there, where he could barely see the other laws presence. Not to mention that those small gaps seemed to change position all the time! As for the Law of Heat, he could hardly find it anywhere.

\”This... What is happening here?\”

Light Spirit heard that and laughed once more.

\”See? Let me make an analogy for you. Think about an empty pan. Suddenly, you fill it with rice, but now, there is almost no space left to put other ingredients. That's basically how the world of laws works. Your understanding of the Law of Burning is basically filling nearly the entire pan, so you only have that much space to add other Fire Laws.\”

Krune immediately understood why high-level cultivators and demon beasts took so long to understand them.

\”Doesn't that mean that I selected the Law of Burning as my starting law? If I knew, I would have thought about selecting something else!\”

Light Spirit immediately disagreed with him.

\”That's not how it works. Gaining insight into the first Law is an opportunity, not something that you can actively seek. Tell me, before you understood the Law of Burning, do you think you would have been able to simply summon some other element and understand a Law from it?\”

Krune was taken aback by that question.

\”Indeed. I didn't select the Law of Burning, it just so happens that I was close to Kaio when I first noticed its presence.\”

Light Spirit agreed.

\”Exactly! It's not because Kaio was using the Law of Burning that you would definitely understand it. I might as well tell you that if he was using any other law, the chances of you noticing its presence would be minimal. In other words, you were lucky to even notice it at your Core Formation Realm!\”

Still, Light Spirit gave Krune some good news too.

\”The biggest problem is for you to understand the very first Law of your life, that is the hardest barrier, and you already crossed it. Think about it like you finally understand what a Law 'REALLY' is.\”

Light Spirit continued.

\”Also, there is another good news for you. The 'filled pan' analogy is only applied for the element in question. For other elements, the 'pan' is still empty. Once you get back to the hotel, try to take a look at my Tribulation Lightning. I think you will get a pleasant surprise.\”

While Krune and Light Spirit were discussing those matters, Palo was in the middle of a call with someone from the Alchemist Organization.

\”Are you sure? Did he really understand a Law at the 6th Stage of the Core Formation Realm?\”

Palo replied.

\”As an alchemist, I'm also versed at Fire Laws. So I'm sure that he had just understood his very first Fire Law, the Law of Burning!\”
