Chapter 421 Divine Realm
The system's delay in processing the generation of high-level skills does not seem to be directly related to the skill's grade, but rather depends more on the complexity of the skill itself.
【Against the Tide】involves the law of time—the most advanced and scarce rule system, which takes a long time to process...understandable.
What about this time?
Lin Tian looked at the merging light mist in the center of the magic array.
Gravity, repulsion, and the constraints of laws.
There are three forces: two are purely fundamental physical laws, and the other is a restrictive mechanism at the level of rules.
It shouldn't be too long.
With that thought in mind, he leaned against the stone bench and waited quietly.
The moonlight remained cold and clear.
The night-blooming jasmine in the corner of the courtyard swayed gently in the night breeze, its pale purple petals in full bloom, and a faint, cool fragrance drifted over.
This flower blooms only at night, absorbing moonlight to grow, which is somewhat similar to his current state—both are waiting for the right moment to ripen.
The lights of Xingyue City in the distance gradually thinned out, and night had fallen.
Occasionally, patrolling guards would walk by on the street, but no one noticed what was happening in this secluded little courtyard.
The pentagram magic circle continued to rotate, emitting a faint humming sound.
The three skill cards had completely merged into the flow of light, no longer having independent outlines—the gray-white of Shinra Tensei, the silver-white of Myriad Manifestations, and the pale gold of Law Imprisonment had all disappeared.
Instead, there was a chaotic, constantly writhing and shifting mist of light.
Grayish white, silvery white, and pale gold clashed fiercely within it, yet slowly reconciled.
The three colors resemble three intertwined snakes, tearing at, devouring, and merging with each other.
Occasionally, one color might try to take the lead, but it would quickly be suppressed by the other two.
Lin Tian looked at the ball of light.
wait.
ten minutes.
The form of the light fog began to stabilize, no longer churning and surging as it had before.
The height of the tumbling decreased from half a meter to about twenty centimeters, and the frequency also slowed down.
The boundaries between the three colors gradually blurred—not disappeared, but merged.
A deeper, more unified hue is emerging from it, like the last rays of light on the horizon at dusk, indescribable whether it is gray, purple, or black.
twenty minutes.
The rotation speed of the magic circle slowed down.
The light mist began to shrink and solidify—from a chaotic cloud nearly half a meter in diameter, it compressed into a fist-sized, clearly defined sphere of light.
The color... is a hue somewhere between grayish-black and dark purple.
Profound and restrained, like the frozen night, or the color of the vertical pupils of some giant beast.
Lin Tian sat up slightly.
[Skill synthesis in progress...]
The progress bar has appeared.
This time, there was no malfunction.
The progress bar moves forward smoothly, steadily, and resolutely.
20%, 45%, 73%, 88%...
As Lin Tian watched the numbers climb steadily, he suddenly recalled his experience while waiting for the [Reverse Tide] – that erratic progress bar that jumped around, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and got stuck at 99% for ages.
He thought expressionlessly: The system is definitely targeting me.
Is it because the [Reverse Tide] is too strong? Or is it because the laws of time are difficult to handle?
Why did the other one wait so long, while this one just went through the motions?
Forget it.
There's nowhere to reason with them anyway.
[100%]
【Ding! 】
The crisp notification sound arrived as expected.
[Skill synthesis successful!]
The sphere of light shattered silently.
It doesn't dissipate, but blossoms—like a flower bud suddenly blooming in time-lapse photography.
A deep purple light burst forth from the crack, but it was not dazzling; instead, it carried a sense of calm, restraint, and a profound, unsettling weight.
That purple was so pure, like a corner of the deep sea, or the darkest star in the night sky.
After the light faded, a brand new skill icon quietly floated in the center of the magic circle.
It was a hexagonal crystalline pattern with a deep purplish-black background and countless fine silver-white lines slowly flowing on the surface.
The direction of the pattern is very special—it does not spread outward, nor does it converge inward, but extends in two opposite directions at the same time, as if it is eternally pulling, resisting, and balancing.
The silver-white lines form an eerie dynamic balance against the purplish-black background, which can be dizzying if you look at it for too long.
Lin Tian stared at the icon.
It reminded him of something.
In the depths of the universe, there are binary star systems where two giant stars orbit each other, achieving a delicate balance between gravity and centrifugal force, remaining neither close nor far apart for billions of years.
Or perhaps it's the event horizon of a black hole—a gravitational force that devours everything inward and a structure that seals everything outward.
That invisible boundary is both a cage and a barrier.
He stretched out his hand.
Mind lock.
[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the SS-rank skill: Divine All Things.]
Lin Tian was slightly taken aback.
"All things in the universe."
He repeated the skill name in a low voice.
"Shinra" is taken from "Shinra Tensei"—that is pure repulsive force, a domineering force that pushes everything away.
"Wanxiang" is taken from "Wanxiang Tianyin" - that is pure gravity, pulling everything with greed.
The word "万象" in the middle is repeated, but it doesn't seem redundant when placed together.
On the contrary, there is a wonderful resonance—the “myriad phenomena” in the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Guidance refers to all things in the world; the “myriad phenomena” in the Divine Luo Myriad Phenomena also refers to all things in the world.
The same two characters can carry different meanings in different positions.
As for the power of "law-imprisoned"... he didn't see it directly in the name.
It was hidden inside.
Enveloped by "Shinra" and "All Things", it becomes the third pole that maintains the balance between the two.
Without that constraint, attraction and repulsion would always be in opposition; with it, the two truly become one.
Lin Tian clicked on the detailed attributes.
The light screen unfolds.
He read it word by word.
After reading it, he remained silent for a long time.
Then, he looked up at the night sky.
The moonlight, like a ribbon, shone on his face.
Lin Tian's lips curled up slightly.
"interesting."

Divine All Things - Repulsive Force: Instantly unleashes an unparalleled and terrifying repulsive force, forcefully pushing away everything around it. The amount of mana injected can be freely adjusted; the more mana consumed, the larger the skill's area of effect and the stronger the repulsive field effect. Cooldown: 5 seconds.
Divine All Things - Final Form: Generates 10 chains of law to imprison the enemy. The mana infusion can be freely adjusted; the imprisonment duration is related to the mana consumed and the difference in intelligence attributes between the two sides. During the imprisonment, you can freely use [Divine All Things - Gravity] and [Divine All Things - Repulsion] on the imprisoned enemy until the imprisonment ends. Cooldown: 30 seconds.
Description: The ultimate balance of attraction and repulsion, the perfect integration of the laws of nature. When all things return to one mind, heaven and earth are in the palm of one's hand.
