Chapter 538: Categorization of a Powerful Law (2/2)
Then, Gravis turned his gaze to the river in the distance. 'What Laws do the Medium Complex and Soft Complex Laws need?' Gravis thought.
'I have created some Medium-Complex materials by mixing some materials, and I see the same requirements for them. Hard Pure materials can also be made into Medium Complex materials.'
'How could all this work?' Gravis thought.
Luckily, he came to an answer rather quickly as he realized a possibility. 'I think I may have been blinded by the classification of Laws in this middle world. Father hasn't told me how Laws are classified or how higher-ranked Laws are composed. All my understanding regarding their workings comes from this world.'
'If I think outside the box, I can see a very reasonable explanation. There are not two ways to create a more powerful Law, but three ways.'
The first way was to combine three or more Laws into one Law.
The second way was to understand something very complex all at once, like the Law of Suppression or the Law of Pride.
The third way, which Gravis had just found out, was a combination of the two. It required the understanding of some Initial Laws and then learning something additional that exclusively belonged to the Low-Rank Law.
The knowledge one required to learn for these Laws could be described with land in an Empire.
There could be an association or organization of three Kingdoms that worked together closely. Together, they could be powerful enough to count as an Empire. Yet, the territories didn't fuse into one. They were still three Kingdoms with three different leaders. This represented the first way, creating a level two Law by understanding three level one Laws.
If there were only a single Empire with only a single leader, one could liken it to the second way of understanding Laws. It was one cohesive thing.
Yet, there could also be a mixture of both. This was if an association or organization between three Kingdoms were created and one of the Kingdoms' leaders became an Emperor. The area of the Emperor's Empire would grow until it was bigger than the associated Kingdoms. Yet, the Kingdoms might still exist and still have their association with the Empire.
This meant that one could see all of this as two Empires or one Empire. One Empire would be the powerful Emperor and their territory while the other Empire could be that Empire plus the other two Kingdoms combined.
'I see,' Gravis thought as motivation returned to him. 'The Soft Complex, Medium Complex, and Hard Complex Laws all need the full understanding of Soft Pure, Medium Pure, and Hard Pure Laws. Then, I need to learn some additional knowledge that these Laws don't have.'
'But then, what about the classification of the full Law?' Gravis thought. 'If I understand the Soft Complex, Medium Complex, and Hard Complex Laws, I could probably combine them into a level three Law, which would be the Complex Law. Its full name would probably be the Middle-Tier Complex Material Composition Law.'
Gravis took a deep breath. 'Then that means that the Middle-Tier Material Composition Law, without the Complex, is probably not a level three Law, but a level four Law.'
Gravis looked at his surroundings. 'If the Complex Law is one component of the level four Law, there must be other components as well, which are just as powerful.'
'I think I can categorize everything better now with my increased experience. Water, Metal, Wood, Earth, Air, Fire, and Lightning are probably part of this overarching Law. Maybe even Darkness and Light. I think fire and lightning don't fit water, metal, wood, air, and earth. Fire and lightning are some form of matter, but a little different from the other five.'
Gravis' eyes shone more as he finally saw a categorization that made sense. 'The Composition Laws of Water, Air, Wood, and Earth probably combine into a level two Law. Metal is probably already inside the Complex Materials. The Composition Laws of the other four probably create another level two Law. Then, by combining these two, I would probably get something like the Elemental Material Composition Law, another level three Law.'
'Then, I probably also need to learn the Composition Law of all living matter. Composition of Organs, Blood, Bones, Muscles, and Skin probably makes the Living Body, or Animal Composition Law, which would be level two. Then, I probably also need to learn about the composition of plants, which would make the Plant Composition Law, which would also be a level two Law.'
'Another thing would probably be the Composition Law of Micro-organism. I'm powerful enough to see these small things that make mortals sick, but I can't assign them to animals or plants, which probably means that they are their own thing.'
'The Composition Law of Animals, Plants, and Microorganisms probably fuses into the Composition Law of Living Matter. Then, the Composition Laws of Living Matter, Complex Materials, and Elements probably fuse into the Middle-Tier Material Composition Law, which would be a level four Law.'
Gravis smirked.
”Finally, I know what I need to learn.”
