Chapter 587: . The true darling of the starry sky, born lord!

Book 587, A True Darling of the Starry Sky, A Natural Master of the Sector!

"Monarch-level, Sovereign-level, Eternal-level,"

Lu Sheng murmured these words softly under his breath, unable to resist pressing further, "Could you elaborate on that?"

"It is something you ought to know anyway," Lin

Hai Jidao began, "An immortal-level transcendent life physique is, in a certain sense, already distinct from ordinary astral life forms.

To call it a race of another echelon entirely would not be an exaggeration.

However, though immortal-level transcendent life physiques are rare, they are not quite as formidable as you might imagine."

"What do you mean by that?"

This time, it was Ounon Turing who asked the question.

Ounon Turing’s thick brows furrowed slightly.

He was a bona fide immortal-level transcendent life form, a fact that had always been his greatest pride.

Before Lu Sheng’s appearance, his talent had shone brilliantly across the entire hundred major star sectors.

Yet now, Hai Jidao was actually claiming that the immortal-level transcendent life physique was not all that powerful.

This dealt yet another blow to his self-esteem, which had already been quite deflated in Lu Sheng's presence, and a sense of indignation naturally welled up within him.

Hai Jidao cast a glance at him and said indifferently, "My point is, while an immortal-level transcendent life physique is indeed marvelous enough compared to ordinary cosmic races,

and possesses a uniquely blessed and massive advantage in cultivation,

this advantage is rapidly narrowed, and even completely leveled out, once one enters the thirteenth rank."

Hearing Hai Jidao's words, a sudden flash of inspiration struck Lu Sheng's mind, and the words escaped his lips, "The power of laws?!"

A gleam of unvarnished admiration flashed through Hai Jidao's eyes as he nodded, saying, "Precisely."

"The reason why an immortal-level transcendent life physique is powerful is that every such physique is born with a certain power on the side of laws latent within their body.

This is a gift from the universe and the starry sky, something to be envied.

Before the thirteenth rank, this power is more than enough to easily grant the possessor of an immortal-level transcendent life physique peerless strength among peers of the same rank.

They can even fight those of a higher rank.

But once they enter the thirteenth rank, this small advantage is swiftly eroded.

Because every single thirteenth-rank powerhouse wields the power of laws.

Unless the law-side power naturally brought by your immortal-level transcendent life physique is exceptionally potent, after entering the thirteenth rank,

you will not be vastly different from any ordinary thirteenth-rank powerhouse."

As Hai Jidao spoke, he looked toward Ounon Turing beside them and spoke calmly, "In other words, I too can technically be considered an immortal-level transcendent life physique.

Moreover, I am an immortal-level transcendent life form that has already grown to its complete state.

Ounon, now you know why, even if you exert every ounce of your strength, you still cannot match a true thirteenth-rank powerhouse."

"Uh..."

Ounon Turing seemed somewhat dazed by Hai Jidao's explanation, as if he could not fully digest it all at once, or perhaps simply found it unacceptable.

Perchance fearing that Ounon Turing was too heavily discouraged, Hai Jidao then added, "Of course, a natural immortal-level transcendent life physique does not lose all advantages upon entering the thirteenth rank.

After all, your accumulation at the twelfth rank still remains.

If your luck is good enough, by virtue of the accumulation of the power of rules at the eleventh and twelfth ranks, you can comprehend a second power of law faster than ordinary thirteenth-rank cultivators."

Lu Sheng understood everything completely now.

To put it simply, an immortal-level was born with one law inherent to them; as long as they did not perish prematurely, they were guaranteed to achieve the thirteenth rank.

Meanwhile, the requirement for an ordinary person to advance to the thirteenth rank was also to master one law, so the immortal-level no longer held a grand advantage upon reaching that stage.

At most, you could save a portion of time and energy compared to other thirteenth-ranks, and then utilize that time and energy to comprehend a second law.

Naturally, this required a bit of foresight.

That was roughly the gist of it.

Only then did Ounon Turing feel slightly better.

He subconsciously glanced at Lu Sheng and could not help but inquire, "Then what about the Monarch-level lineages that stand above the immortal?"

Hai Jidao pondered for a moment, then said, "The span between the Monarch-level and the Immortal-level is vast.

Immortal-level transcendent life physiques are also divided into tiers.

Not every immortal-level transcendent life physique carries only a single law by birth.

There are powerful immortal-levels who might be born possessing two, or even three powers of law..."

"What?!"

Hearing this, Ounon Turing could not help but cry out in a low voice, his face betraying a look of profound shock.

Lu Sheng’s expression jarred with shock as well.

Being born with one law was not enough; there were those with two or three.

This kind of talent was simply too exaggerated.

Even he, at this moment, felt a sincere urge to lament, "Old Man Heaven really is partial."

He possessed the Dreamworld Universe, allowing him to continuously inherit the power of laws comprehended by others from within it, which was why he had mastered the power of laws so early on.

And even after all this time, he only held two.

Yet some people were born with three, or even more, hidden inside their bodies.

This motherfucker was truly a case of comparisons driving a man mad with envy.

And as he sighed in contemplation, a voice cut through the silence—Hai Ji Dao continued, his tone measured yet piercing:

“Even a peak Immortal-tier bloodline, born with four innate Laws,

still falls short of the most rudimentary Sovereign-tier bloodline.”

“Why?”

Aon Tuling’s eyes widened, sharp with disbelief, as he demanded an answer.

“Because—”

Hai Ji Dao spoke slowly, each word deliberate:

“No matter how formidable an Immortal-tier transcendent being’s physique may be,

no matter how many Laws it commands,

it must still construct its Law-body from scratch—still must confront the same threshold as ordinary beings.”

“But Sovereign-tier transcendent beings are different.

A Sovereign-tier physique is inherently endowed with at least three—often more—Laws.

And once its bloodline matures, it can spontaneously forge its Law-body,

ascending unimpeded to the Fourteenth Realm of Martial Dao!”

“.Sssss—”

The moment Hai Ji Dao finished, Aon Tuling drew in a sharp, shuddering breath,

his handsome face etched with profound shock.

Lu Sheng, though far less overt in his reaction, was visibly stirred nonetheless.

“So you vastly underestimate Sovereign-tier transcendent physiques.

Though we—and the Grand Star Lord alike—believe Lu Sheng is highly likely of Sovereign-tier blood,

we cannot entirely rule out the possibility that he merely possesses an exceptionally advanced Immortal-tier lineage.

After all, thus far, he has only revealed mastery over a single Law.”

As he spoke, Hai Ji Dao cast a glance toward Lu Sheng—searching, probing—

as if inviting him to reveal more of his hidden depths.

Alas, Lu Sheng simply ignored the look, as though it had never existed.

Still reeling, Aon Tuling murmured, voice hushed with awe:

“If Sovereign-tier is already this overwhelming… then what of Ruler-tier?

And beyond even that—the Eternal-tier transcendent physique?”

Hai Ji Dao replied without hesitation:

“A Ruler-tier being surpasses Sovereign-tier for good reason.

Its defining advantage lies in autonomous ascension up to the Fifteenth Realm of Martial Dao—

with no obstacles, no bottlenecks, all the way.”

“No barriers whatsoever on the path to the Fifteenth Realm?!”

Aon Tuling’s expression twisted into disbelief; he swallowed thickly, voice strained:

“A *Born* Sovereign?”

“Precisely.”

Hai Ji Dao nodded, affirming:

“The current System Lord of our Tian She Star System is a Ruler-tier transcendent being—

and, to date, the sole such individual within our entire system.

As for Eternal-tier…”

He shook his head.

“I’ve only heard whispers of it—never witnessed its power firsthand.

Perhaps… perhaps only an entire Stellar Domain could ever give birth to such a being.”

Shock.

An incomprehensible, staggering magnitude of shock.

Aon Tuling could utter not a single word—only sat rigid in his seat, face a storm of conflicting emotions.

Lu Sheng fared slightly better.

His mind, however, churned fiercely.

Could his mentor, Yang Yi Zhou—the Domain Lord of Tian Lan Stellar Domain—

be an Eternal-tier transcendent being?

Or perhaps not Eternal-tier…

yet equal to one?

Surpassing even eternity itself!
