The moment Daniel obtained the Great Universal Will Fragment, he used it to advance his spacetime-law Sacred Art.

Absolute Spacetime rose directly to mid-grade.

Daniel immediately opened the new information panel.

[Absolute Spacetime]

[Grade]: Supreme Law

[Type]: Spacetime Law

[Effects]:

After activation, the user can transform a selected region within their sage-rank domain into an Absolute Spacetime Domain. Inside this domain, the user may freely manipulate the past and future of the affected area. After activation, the user can completely ignore every law-based Sacred Art below the sixth-tribulation level and become fully immune to all damage produced by treasures beneath peak-grade innate treasure level.

[Note]: This Sacred Art consumes an enormous amount of power. The user can control the past and future, but the longer the temporal distance involved, the greater the cost.

[Explanation]: Spacetime Law stands above ordinary laws. Possessing any true spacetime-law Sacred Art greatly increases resistance to enemy techniques involving time and space.

Spacetime Law can influence every other law unless the opposing law has reached the transcendent, ultimate, or terminal stage.

[Current State]: The user’s spacetime comprehension has reached the terminal stage. It can presently affect all targets below T6. Further advancement remains possible.

[Description]: Within the range of your sage-rank domain, no equal-Rank opponent can challenge your authority. You are the sole ruler of spacetime.

Daniel’s excitement rose as he read the description.

He had advanced Absolute Spacetime only once, yet it already made him effectively invincible against anything below T6. The ability to ignore lower-level Sacred Arts and freeze or rewrite events inside his own domain was far beyond an ordinary improvement.

The cost, however, was also immense.

As the grade of the technique increased, the amount of divine power required to support it would grow accordingly. To activate the law freely and sustain its strongest effects in continuous battle, Daniel estimated that he would need to reach Oracle-grade.

At present, he remained at Divine-grade.

"I still need one more law," Daniel murmured.

He had deliberately remained at his current Rank for so long because he wanted to accumulate an overwhelming foundation before facing the Great Dao Tribulation. Every additional transcendent law would increase his chance of passing the tribulation and would also determine how strong he became after advancing.

"My foundations are still slightly insufficient. If I can raise one more law to the transcendent stage, I will have enough. Then I will no longer need to remain trapped at Divine-grade. I can overcome the tribulation and enter Oracle-grade directly."

Daniel had already selected the final law he intended to cultivate.

"The Law of Destruction is the most suitable."

His gaze fell upon the black Divine Spear.

The weapon itself contained immense destructive power. Among the countless laws of the universe, Destruction possessed one of the highest offensive potentials. Once cultivated to a sufficiently high level, it could erase matter, Divine Souls, laws, Origins, and even the foundations of worlds.

For Oracle-grade experts, a law represented the road they walked, while Sacred Arts represented the methods through which they expressed that road.

A cultivator with comprehension but no suitable Sacred Art could not display their full Strength. A cultivator possessing powerful techniques without a stable law foundation could never progress indefinitely.

Daniel had comprehended dozens of laws, but only the Law of Causality and the Law of Reincarnation had reached the transcendent stage.

Those two laws were already enough to make him unmatched at Divine-grade.

If he wished to remain invincible after advancing to Oracle-grade, he needed a third transcendent law.

"Absolute Spacetime."

Daniel activated the Sacred Art with a thought.

The space around him began to flow like liquid. Irregular ripples spread outward, and the passage of time accelerated violently from his position.

The old buildings surrounding his residence began to change.

Cracked stone became smooth. Weathered walls regained their original brilliance. Faded carvings appeared newly cut. Figures emerged one after another, at first transparent and indistinct, then increasingly solid until they became living people drawn from an earlier moment in history.

The resurrected figures looked around in confusion.

Memories belonging to the reconstructed period flooded into their minds. They recognized familiar faces, ancient halls, and scenes they had already experienced. Fear gradually appeared when they realized that they were standing inside a time that had long since passed.

Before any of them could stabilize their emotions, the flow of spacetime changed again.

Every reconstructed figure vanished.

The buildings returned to their present condition, and silence filled the residence.

This was the terrifying authority of Spacetime Law.

It did not merely create an illusion. It could reach into the past, reproduce what had existed, and then erase the reconstruction by returning the region to the present.

Daniel slowly clenched his fist and smiled.

He was extremely satisfied with the Strength of Absolute Spacetime.

Elsewhere within the Myriad-Race Universe, two figures appeared from nothingness.

One was old, and the other was young.

The elder had white hair, a youthful face, and healthy red skin. At first glance, he seemed completely ordinary.

However, any Eternal Grade expert would immediately recognize the truth. The elder appeared to stand in one location, but his existence had already transcended that point. No Time River could leave a mark upon him. Past, present, and future flowed around his body without binding it.

He was an Eternal Grade powerhouse who had escaped the restraints of the Time River.

The young man beside him also possessed an unremarkable face.

His skin, however, was clear and radiant like divine crystal. Spiritual light flickered in his eyes, and law-based Sacred Arts moved around him with every gesture. His comprehension of the Great Dao had already reached an astonishing level.

"Kru," the elder asked with a smile, "what did you think of Narevis?"

The young man answered respectfully.

"Master, Narevis, whom some called Levis, was known as the Son of Eternity. His strength was naturally extraordinary. But as you explained, his two failed attempts to overcome the Eternal Tribulation were not accidents."

Kru’s voice remained calm and confident.

"You taught me that beneath the Endless Starfield, there is no tribulation that cannot be overcome. A cultivator merely needs to become stronger than the disaster placed before him. Narevis reached the peak of T9 in two separate lives, but his vision remained limited. No matter how powerful he became, he never broke through his own ultimate boundary. Without reaching the extreme summit, surviving the Eternal Tribulation was impossible. His final death was therefore inevitable."

The elder nodded.

"I have taken you through the Endless Starfield and across countless eras. You have challenged exceptional geniuses in every region. Among all of them, Narevis is one of the very few who earned such a detailed evaluation from you."

Kru smiled with absolute confidence.

"He was powerful, but not the strongest. At the very least, I am stronger. If Master removes the seals upon my cultivation and allows me to return to my original T7 Oracle-grade Rank, facing Narevis at his peak would not be difficult."
