Chapter 136: Troubles and Troubles
This did not include the most dangerous of the three techniques.
Great Destiny Technique!
This was a technique that allowed a cultivator to create, mold, and destroy others' destiny.
If someone were to find a treasure or even inherit a certain talent, the user of the Destiny Law could change it.
Of course, something like this would need the highest level of Destiny Law, but even so, just with the lowest level, one could easily transfer luck.
Yes, Luck!
A factor that couldn't be counted in any sort of situation was a tangible aspect of Destiny.
It was something that the Destiny User could control. But, where did all of those things come from?
Naturally, someone had to come from something else; otherwise, it wouldn't possibly exist.
That was the whole situation of Gods.
They were gods, but they couldn't create something without anything. Even those Omegas couldn't do it.
Although Omega could create things, it mostly came out of its own energy. Since their energy was almost limitless, it might look easy, but it wasn't.
So, the possibility of creating destiny and molding it needed a trade.
A trade that could potentially destroy the Destiny of thousands, millions, billions, or trillions.
Yeah! Trillions!
If someone with high mastery over Destiny Law or even Supreme Law itself tried to favor someone, it would literally destroy the very universe.
Tyler didn't understand how this all worked. After all, the consequence of a Supreme Law favoring one person shouldn't have such an impact.
So, he asked Miao to explain this situation in a better way. And Miao did give him an analogy.
'If one were to take Destiny as a currency. To buy this currency, a person must spend a lot of resources.'
'Let's say one Destiny coin costs energy equivalent to a planet. So, the energy of this entire planet was used to create that destiny coin.'
'How is it created? I am not sure. Even Destiny Law can only do an exchange. Even if it doesn't know the true mechanism behind it.'
'Only Universal Spirit knows that. Anyway, giving this coin to someone would help that person by improving his luck.'
'But that didn't improve out of nowhere. He is literally stealing luck from someone else. It didn't matter to him because Karma didn't catch him.'
'But that negative luck on another person will have some effects. Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.'
'Normally, this shouldn't matter, but what if this person is connected to an incredible event that can determine the life and death of a planet?'
'Think about it! If you absorb someone's luck, would it be from someone who didn't have luck or someone who had incredible luck?'
'Of course, it would be later. But the greater the luck, means greater the impact. Because of the effect I mentioned, the situation will only get worse.'
'At the end, your planet will pay for you stealing one's luck. Naturally, Supreme Law wouldn't allow that since it invested in you.'
'So, it would give you more destiny coins, to help you grow faster so that you can take that challenge and fix that thing.'
'But now there is a problem. Many planets and resources have been exhausted to create those destiny coins.'
'Because of this, many top races are facing a crisis. Naturally, there is only one way to gain more resources. That is, invade and plunder.'
'Since you manage to rise so quickly, you will also gain the attention of many people. And your planet's resources have not been exhausted, or rather, it has flourished due to your luck.'
'This has resulted in the demise of many other races whose luck you stole. But since they weren't part of you, you didn't care about them.'
'But they do matter. Why? Because without them, the only target those people will have is you.'
'And, that's where a war will begin. Should the Destiny continue to help you, it would cause even more destruction? If it doesn't, then what about the resources it had wasted on you?'
'It won't come back. You had a great life, but your existence has plunged the universe into darkness.'
'In other words, this is the true consequence of tampering with Destiny. Even something like the Supreme Law can't do much about it.'
Only at that moment, Tyler understood the true danger behind those techniques. Each was more powerful than the other, but they were also more dangerous.
Tyler hadn't lost everything. So, naturally, he couldn't just give up on others to cultivate.
That's also why Miao was so fixated at protecting Rose.
In his eyes, Tyler was a madman.
And, without the ability to kill Tyler, unless it asked for others' help to kill Tyler in a single strike, this universe was bound to die.
With Tyler's arsenal of these techniques, he could potentially plunge the universe into darkness that it could never recover from.
More importantly, it wasn't like Tyler was going to die. He had faced Supreme Laws, cultivators several realms above him, and still came out on top.
Of course, Tyler also understood this. That's why he no longer hesitated leaving his mother in Miao's care.
Not only had Miao recovered, but he also feared his other side.
So, he had nothing to worry about.
With a worry-free attitude, he kept running towards the Azure Mountain Region.
He faced more monsters on the way. Although the ones attracted by him were mostly E-Rank monsters, he did face a few D-Rank and one C-Rank monster.
Facing a D-Rank monster wasn't that difficult, but a C-Rank was a completely different story.
Unless he was willing to use Red Demon Energy, he wouldn't be able to one-shot it.
So, he had to fight using his wit.
Fortunately, his swordsmanship had improved quite a bit.
Having Sword Intent and Mastering Sword Intent were two different concepts.
The life and death battle with the Golden Core helped him master the Sword Intent, even if he didn't use it that much.
The mere factor of using his sword while facing an insurmountable challenge helped him comprehend the deeper level of Sword Intent.
Sword Intent was basically the bud of Sword Law.
Sword Law wasn't a stage. It was simply the comprehension of Swordsmanship.
But once comprehended, the sheer presence of Sword Law would make his Sword Intent indestructible and extremely sharp.
Unlike where his sword attacks were burned by his opponent, Sword Intent with Sword Law wouldn't get burned so easily.
It could be countered; otherwise, swordsmen would've ruled the world.
But it was no easy feat.
Because, unlike lightning, swordsmanship had four attributes.
Power, Speed, Hardness, and Softness!
Above them, Sword Law only had two attributes.
Sharpness!
Power, Speed, Hardness, and Softness could be improved as well, but they were placed on the sidelines.
Whether it was a powerful sword, a fast sword, a tough sword, or an agile sword, they all had one thing in common.
They were all supposed to be sharp.
And that's where Sword Law came into existence.
But that didn't mean those four attributes weren't important. In fact, sharpness was also included before Sword Law.
But it was only after comprehending Sword Law, one could truly refine the sharpness of the Sword.
Since Sword Intent didn't have to be only about the sword, Sword Law was the only thing that kept focusing on Sharpness.
This was also why he wanted to enter Bellazza.
In that place, he would be able to comprehend Sword Law, merge his lightning Law with his Sword Intent.
Not only would his sword gain the attribute of destruction, and gain an insane improvement in its speed and power.
He didn't think merging two different laws was a good idea.
Since he had barely started comprehending Laws, if he made a single mistake, he could destroy everything he had cultivated.
Fortunately, he could merge any kind of Law with his Sword Intent. That would only turn his Sword Intent into Thunder Sword Intent.
The power of lightning and swordsmanship!
While making plans and cutting monsters, he made his way to the Azure Mountain Region.
Two Days Later;
Border of Azure Mountain Region;
There was a group of people waiting for him on the road. When he reached there, he instantly recognized the woman standing in the front.
She was the same woman who bought that key from him.
Crackle!
As the lightning exploded, he stopped in front of them. The lightning slowly disappeared, revealing his real body.
"Miss, I didn't expect we would meet so soon."
Tyler raised his hand and spoke with a smile.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Tyler!"
The woman smiled as she shook his hand.
"Just call me Tyler!"
"Then, call me Anna! I am here on behalf of the Holy Trident Guild."
'Holy Trident Guild? It must be equivalent to the Holy Sanctum Guild. Then again, I never thought about these seven regions having the same guild and families.'
"So, I heard you want to Bellazza? Are you going to conquer another legacy?"
Hearing that, Tyler chuckled.
"I hope so. Of course, it would be great if Miss Anna could be my guide inside Bellazza!"
