Chapter 2555 - Genesis in Control

Tianming tempered himself with lightning, breaking through life and death. The loud boom, the sensation of lightning blasting his caelum, and the burning and numbness were just as intense as if it were striking his body. Deafening thunder persisted.

"Master said it took him many years to comprehend the Death Imperatoris, and thats because his order fit the sword art. If I want to learn this art, I have to start with my order, and my order stems from Meow Meows genesis order!"

His genesis order was self-generated. For everyone else, it began with the infusion of caeli into divine wills, with the change occurring after divine wills found order in the ordered sea.

In the process of comprehending and cultivating, orders within the heptastar organs could also return to the caelum to facilitate enlightenment. After death, they would also return to the caeli. If the caeli werent preserved, their orders would dissipate together with them. Tianming's genesis order now rested within his spleen, which was the defense mechanism of the heptastar organs, clearing out evil influences and eliminating poisons and toxins. Lightning was merely an expression of his genesis order. Thus, it fell under primal chaos.

"I wonder if my self-generated order can reach my caelum." He tried guiding his order. Order was an intangible power of the laws. In the genesis spleen, it was a black and white hexagonal brand, but transformed into a spherical briquette covered in hexagonal apertures after leaving his spleen and entering his caelum. Of course, if he were a cosmic cartographer, it would be a beehive.

As soon as he thought about it, his genesis order actually disappeared from his spleen and reappeared in the center of his caelum. It was an instant s.h.i.+ft that didnt involve the process of migration. In his caelum, genesis order transformed into a half black, half white spherical briquette. Genesis Bolts and Chaos Fiendbolts covered the surface, pouring in and out of the hexagonal apertures.

The entire Lightning Carnage h.e.l.lscape was completely different with the arrival of Tianmings genesis order. He was pleasantly surprised to find that, in this world, his genesis order felt like the entrance of the supreme. All of the lightning violently shook and seemed to turn to focus on him, as if they had come to life. Or perhaps they were eyeing his genesis order, to be exact. At that moment, he became the target of all of the attacks and countless lightning bolts in all colors engulfed him! Lightning flooded his body, blasted his genesis order, and poured into its hexagonal apertures.

"It aches in a good way!" There would be discomfort even if it was his caelum.

Tianming had been completely swallowed up by the lightning. All around him was a sea of lightning, and he was like an ant in that sea, electrified to the point where his pores discharged electricity. Every hair on his body was now shaped like a lightning bolt. Even so, he wouldn't actually die, but suffer endless torture.

At first, he was so consumed by the pain that all he could do was drift with the flow. Although he struggled to maintain his thoughts, hoping to grasp the meaning of it all, the aggressive lightning extinguished all thought. He could only hold on and fight the desire to escape, because escaping meant that he would have to start from scratch.

"Genesis order is special. Imperator Carnages lightning cant destroy it. Tianming was confident in both Meow Meow and himself, and that belief made it possible for him to remain standing even after being struck by millions of lightning bolts.

"The sea of lighting might seem vast, but wandering around shouldnt be impossible.

As his mind gradually relaxed, his conviction grew. The torment from the lightning was no longer as intense; although it continued blasting him, it couldnt damage his genesis order. No matter how many lightning bolts struck it, they were all swallowed. Tianming's caelum and genesis order were one. Absorbing the lightning through his genesis order was no different from absorbing it himself. Seeing how stable his order was, he completely let go of himself, spreading his arms and legs wide and swimming in the sea of lightning.

"I don't have to swim the entire sea. I just have to tell it that it won't be the one to conquer me, Ill be the one to conquer it! Im Li Tianming and Im genesis order!" Fighting against the waves, he swam like a fish frolicking in the sea of lightning. Wherever he went, millions of lightning bolts tried destroying his genesis order. But every time they attacked, they failed to elicit a response.

"This lightning is just a splash. Genesis order is the true sea."

The confidence given to Tianming by the Primordial Chaos Beasts was so strong that he could even have such an idea. Day after day pa.s.sed. He eventually forgot about the pa.s.sage of time and could no longer remember how much lightning had been absorbed by his genesis order. In this Lightning Carnage h.e.l.lscape, he and his genesis order grew bigger and bigger, while the sea of lightning dwindled. Some time later, he was no longer an ant and the lightning was no longer a sea. Instead, he was like a man and the lightning resembled a lake. Even though a lake was still larger than a person, a person could definitely conquer one.

"The secret of Imperator Carnages should be in this sea of lightning." Tianming wrestled against the waves time and again, searching for the secret of the sword art through the onslaught of lightning.

"An infinitum-cla.s.s sword art should be this profound and complex! It feels more complicated than the Grandvoid Compendium and Xiaozhi Sword Art!" Totems were a part of the sword arts from the flameyellow divinities, which Tianming had to slowly explore.

"Ill take my time. At the very least, my genesis order is a good start. One day, Ill meet Imperator Carnage."

At times, he might get a better understanding after resting for a few days. The entire process went much more smoothly than Lin Xiaodao had described. After leaving the mural, Tianming reflected on what he had learned during this period. He headed to the legacy room to observe the little bees within the flameyellow divinities foundation caeli.

The days of cultivating not only consumed a lot of brainpower, they were also boring. It definitely didnt feel as good as showing off and trampling on others. However, cultivation like this was fundamental. Tianming shouldered a heavy responsibility because of the people he loved. He wanted to use his talents to change everything. That was the reason he continued moving forward. People who were not only talented but also hard-working and able to endure boredom and torment were undoubtedly terrifying.

Time flew quickly. Starting City, the legacy room, and the Mural of Carnage were all he knew. Time had completely changed for him. Although he felt like only two or three months had pa.s.sed, it had in fact been three and a half years. Itd been nine years since the ebons expeditionary army had attacked Gladeus. He felt as if only nine months had pa.s.sed, but he was almost fifty years old.
