Black flames surged like living entities.
When the Star Prison Demon Lord fully manifested, the surrounding spacetime twisted violently—air stretched into viscous bands of distorted light, as though reality itself had been seized and kneaded.
In his hand was a dark-blue octagonal crystal.
Eight facets reflected flowing thunder runes.
Between those runes flickered faint ripples of temporal stagnation—as if time itself hesitated in its presence.
"Brat, you're lucky."
The Star Prison Demon Lord casually tossed the crystal toward Jiang Yan.
"This is the core crystal condensed after the death of a Destroying Behemoth. I owed the clan patriarch a favor to get it."
"As for the Yan God Clan—forget it."
Jiang Yan caught the crystal.
The moment it touched his palm, a strange sensation surged through him—
thunder pulsing like a heartbeat,
time flowing yet frozen.
His heart leapt.
With this core crystal, he could directly give birth to a Destroying Behemoth clone.
"Thank you, Teacher!" Jiang Yan said sincerely.
The Demon Lord nodded.
"This crystal contains Thunder Law and Time Law secret patterns. It will significantly accelerate your comprehension of both."
Then his expression turned serious.
"You are walking the dual path of Space and Time. As your teacher, I must remind you—focus on Space, let Time assist."
Jiang Yan nodded obediently.
"Yes, Teacher."
Though inwardly—he smiled.
With the golden finger, imbalance was never a concern.
The Demon Lord gave him a long, unreadable look.
"Hmph. I know exactly what kind of brat you are."
"When you hit a wall one day, you'll remember my words."
With that, his figure dissolved like a shattered illusion.
The frozen spacetime snapped back into motion.
Clone Conception Begins
"Time to begin."
Jiang Yan gazed at the crystal, excitement barely contained.
He summoned his Demon-Slayer Clan main body, which had been cultivating on Mars.
Moments later—
His consciousness returned to that towering, terrifying form.
"So this is what true power feels like."
He checked his status panel.
[Name: Jiang Yan]
[Warrior Realm: Domain Lord Rank 9 (88/100)]
[Spirit Master: Domain Lord Rank 9 (89/100)]
[Laws:]
Golden Sky — Small AchievementWind–Thunder — BeginnerSpace — ElementaryLightning — ElementaryGold — ElementaryLight — ElementaryWind — Beginner
[Thunder Prison Demon Realm: Third Layer (27/100)]
[Innate Talents: Copying, Clone Breeding, Demon-Slayer Domain (7th Layer 56/100)]
Two full realms above his Earth body.
No wonder the difference felt overwhelming.
"Let's begin breeding."
He activated Clone Breeding, placing the Destroying Behemoth core crystal into the incubation space.
Clone creation required vast energy.
He directly poured in high-grade nutrient solution, the same type prepared for Earth clones.
As a core member of the Virtual Universe Company, supply was not an issue.
The Earth clone could wait.
A clear intuition surfaced in his mind.
"About one month."
Jiang Yan smiled.
"Perfect."
Wind–Thunder Cultivation
"Then I'll use this month well."
He retrieved the Wind–Thunder Blade.
A terrifying aura erupted—the pressure of a fifth-tier force weapon surged outward.
Wind and thunder law patterns shimmered vividly along the blade's surface.
"Let's start."
His consciousness fully immersed itself in cultivation.
Half a Month Later
Suddenly—
[Ding!]
You cultivated the Law of Wind — Critical Trigger! ×10,000 gain!
[Ding!]
You cultivated the Law of Lightning — Critical Trigger! ×1,000,000 gain!
[Ding!]
You cultivated the Wind–Thunder Fusion Law — Critical Trigger! ×100,000 gain!
Wind: 96/100 (Beginner)
Lightning: Entry Achieved
Wind–Thunder: 86/100 (Beginner)
Jiang Yan opened his eyes.
"What a harvest."
Only a few steps remained.
Before the Destroying Behemoth clone finished gestating, both Wind and Wind–Thunder would cross the threshold.
He clenched his fist.
"If Thunder reaches perfection… and the Origin recognizes me at the Star level…"
Even he found that thought frightening.
"But that's exactly what I want."
One Month Later
The final barrier shattered.
Jiang Yan checked his panel.
[Laws:]
Wind — Small AchievementWind–Thunder — Small AchievementSpace — Great AchievementLightning — Perfection
Both Wind and Wind–Thunder Fusion had officially crossed the threshold.
Jiang Yan exhaled slowly.
"Only Wood, Water, Fire, Earth—and Time remain."
The smile on his lips widened.
"How many star-level cultivators can compare?"
The Clone Awakens
Suddenly—
Boom.
A fluctuation rippled through the incubation space.
Jiang Yan's eyes lit up.
"It's done."
"The Destroying Behemoth clone has been born."
Just as predicted.
One month.
The true path—
Space, Time, and Destruction—
was finally opening before him.
