Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2742 - Laws Follow Words

"Trying to escape?"

Tianming put away the Prime Starchain and his entire aura changed. From a white-haired emperor, he transformed into an inheritor of culture and his aura became noble.

As Ying Huo was about to flap its wings, it suddenly became dumbfounded. A huge \'encircle\' (围) word thunderously pressed down on it like an iron-walled city, manifesting in a fashion similar to Perpetia. Ying Huo looked up and found over a hundred giant words in the sky above.

The word for ‘fire’ (火) was formed by four fire dragons, dancing up and down. The word for ‘lock’ (定) descended from the sky and collided with Ying Huo. Ying Huo was stunned for a moment as it was locked in place and it could feel the power of its order in that moment. Even though this power wasn\'t very strong, it was just one of hundreds of \'words’. The rest chaotically fell down, each with different powers.

‘Water’ (水) surged like a river and ‘electricity’ (电) rained down a thunderous bombardment. ‘One’ (一) looked like a giant, descending sword. ‘Up’ (上) sent Ying Huo shooting into the sky, while ‘country’ (国) fell upon it like a mighty army. Those were the simplest words, and each wasn\'t particularly powerful on their own. However, they could drive people insane when combined.

Ying Huo ran around screaming, but there was no sympathy for it. Seeing its miserable appearance, Feiling and the others couldn\'t help but burst into laughter, almost clapping their hands.

"Tianming, you\'re heartless, despicable, and unreasonable! You’re sacrificing your lifebound beast to pick up girls! I have to reveal the matter of you lying in Auntie Hua’s arms in the Xenoabyss—"

Just as it was mentioned, the attacks from the wonder abruptly stopped. Ying Huo turned around, only to see Tianming scratching his head and awkwardly smiling. "Ying Huo, you\'re my true brother. I was just teasing you."

"Fuck, eat my swords!" Ying Huo lunged forward to stab Tianming. Tianming created a pile of words in front of it, trapping it.

"Alright, alright, let\'s talk business."

After all the commotion, Tianming had roughly demonstrated the power of this new wonder to the girls.

"In short, this wonder is based on a hundred thousand Xia words, exploring the world laws inherited in each one. Even with just a preliminary usage, the combined killing power is terrifying. A hundred thousand words means the wonder has a hundred thousand attributes, most of them attributes and orders inaccessible to ordinary cultivators. Some obscure words even have incredible killing power."

"I only saw a hundred just now. Is it because it’s in an embryonic form?" Moran, as a professional, asked.

"Yes, exactly. It\'s in an embryonic state now. I should be learning new words every day until it reaches maturity. A thousand, ten thousand, up to a hundred thousand words, which will make it a complete imperial-class wonder. With Ji Ji\'s existence, even if my cultivation stage isn’t enough to support it, it can still erupt like Little Fish’s."

"Does having a hundred words mean it\'s at the sanctuary or ether class?" Moran asked.

Tianming shook his head, saying, "No, with a hundred words, it\'s already at the infinitum-class."

"It\'s that powerful?" All three of them stared in disbelief. It was only one-thousandth of the wonder\'s power, and it was already at the infinitum-class?

"A hundred words already represent a hundred attributes, and the application of a hundred kinds of orders. These hundred words are the most commonly used in daily life.

"Among them are a large number of proposition and modifier words. They’re different from nouns like \'wind\' and \'fire’. For example, words like \'and\' and \'already\' carry orders without destructive power or cultivation value. But when combined with other words, they can amplify their effects.

"For example, the word \'karma’ has no attack power itself, but combined with the word \'fire’ it forms ‘karmic fire’, greatly enhancing its destructive potential.

"Another example, you can use common words to form \'I want your life\'. In that phrase, only \'life\' is a noun. But when those four words are combined, the grand lexicon wonder endows them with even more terrifying power.

"Even though I only have a hundred words right now, they’re the most commonly used ones. The combinations of words and sentences they can form are truly numerous. It\'s no exaggeration to say there’s thousands of them. So the precise effects they can manifest are complex and varied. That\'s why it has the essence of the infinitum-class divine wonder.

“Of course, I\'m not very familiar with various word combinations and sentences yet, so I still need to slowly explore them. Just being able to exert the power of an ether-class wonder would be more than acceptable." To exert stronger power, Ji Ji might need to use the nova source of the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb.

"I understand!" Feiling quickly got it. "In other words, the strength of your wonder doesn\'t come from a hundred thousand words and a hundred thousand attributes, but when it\'s fully formed it possesses the power of laws follow words. It can create restrictions using various rules through words and sentences."

"Yes." That was what Tianming understood to be the most terrifying aspect of the new wonder. Words were the foundation of the world, all hundred thousand of them, and the rules they entailed!

The wonder could peek into the Heavenly Dao of the ordered sea through words, carrying the order in the form of words. Even a common layman with little understanding would be able to do a lot with a hundred thousand words.

"Old Man Voidback seemed a bit crazy, so I was quite skeptical. But at its maximum growth, this wonder can truly be considered the universe\'s number-one wonder!" From that moment on, Tianming sincerely admired Old Man Voidback.

He couldn\'t wait to try the power of his new wonder in the Xenoabyss. After all, he only had twenty days left in the capital!

But before that, he had another book that was also composed of a formation, pressed under the Grand Xia Lexicon. It probably contained the secrets of the Grand Xia Voidback Nation and the divine wonderians. Its title was quite interesting, too: \'Tales of the Trashy Divine Wonderians\'.
