Chapter 268: Life and Death
Yale was expecting that answer from Revgen’s because despite being talented with the Life Law since the start, he had never had too much talent in the Death Law.
However, Yale saw how quickly he solved the problem of Ange, and since the solution was removing something that could harm a soul, even though the Life Law was useful, it couldn’t compare with the Death Law that focused on souls.
Thus, Yale had the intuition that Revgen had trained the Death Law since the moment he had healed Ange, but it wasn’t until Yale heard about the reincarnation method of a Law God of Life and Death that he understood his intentions.
“Don’t force yourself too much; you know that the Death Law isn’t easy.”
Yale said those words unconsciously, that was exactly what Liye would have said to Revgen in that situation. Liye had said almost the same words when Revgen started to train the Life Law, but Yale didn’t remember about it.
The Death Law and the Life Law were among the most difficult laws to learn together with the Space Law and the Time Law, so unless one was talented in such laws, it was too strange focusing on them.
Liye was talented in the four most difficult laws and was considered a super genius even considering the geniuses of other worlds. In fact, although his talent with the sword was also exceptional, it paled with his talents in those four laws.
However, in the end, the sword ended in the highest level due to the huge difference in difficulty it had compared with those other four laws he trained. In fact, Liye had reached such a high level with the sword without focusing too much on it while training the other laws.
Liye used the sword as a medium to create attacks with the laws instead of using them directly because doing that was useful to learn them better.
If Liye hadn’t focused in reaching the Law God level with the four most difficult laws, in the time he spent training in those laws, he would have been able to easily reach that level in eight or nine of the other laws despite having less talent for them.
“I know, that is why I waited until first making a breakthrough with the Life Law to start practicing the other.”
Life and Death were opposite laws, training both at the same time could be beneficial for the overall training speed or turn the training almost impossible. If someone were to balance both laws correctly while training, the speed would be a few times faster than training both independently, but despite Liye managing to do that, he was still slow compared to other laws. However, the speed surpassed the one of the Time Law and the Space Law that were on a similar range of difficulty.
Revgen had known since the start that with his talent in the Death law he would never be able to balance both of them if he trained both at the same time, so Revgen first reached the Law God level in Life and then he started to practice the Death Law. Although he managed to reach the Law Master level in the Death law without too many difficulties, he was stopped at that point since then and was unable to improve.
“Anyway, let’s forget your training speed your training speed in the Death Law. Even if you provoke a miracle and reach the Law God level on it, you need to forget about reincarnations before we end with the True Empire.”
Yale understood that even with the special reincarnation of a Law God of Life and Death, Revgen would still need some time to recover and losing his strength when the continent was threatened, was something that Revgen couldn’t afford, or there would be no continent to live after his reincarnation.
“I know. With my talent, I will need a lot of time to reach the Law God level in the Death law. In fact, I never planned to reincarnate before you have recovered all your powers, only then I will be at ease. I am training Nurvey to be able to take my position in the time I will be weak, although if she likes it, I don’t mind letting her hold the position for more time. I know that you hate that kind of bindings like managing an empire, so I can just join you and act only in the important moments.”
Liye might have been considered the ruler of the continent, but he didn’t meddle with the affairs of the continent unless they were truly important.
Of course, the same applied to Yale; he didn’t have any ambition to manage the empire. Yale had enough with the status as ruler of the continent because with it he could act as he wanted without being restricted but avoiding management duties.
Even Revgen, despite being the emperor wasn’t active in managing the Empire, but he still had more work than Yale.
“Alright, we should stop speaking. I will break the time stopped area and bring Ange over this dimension. We are making Nurvey wait alone outside.”
Yale was a bit tired of speaking, he had learned a lot from Revgen, but so many information at the same time was difficult to assimilate in a short span of time, and probably Revgen would have continued speaking if Yale didn’t stop him.
When the time stopped area disappeared, a notification appeared in Yale’s head as he had finished that sub-quest without reward. Of course, Yale didn’t mind about not obtaining any reward because that sub-quest objective was to save Ange, knowing that she was already safe was enough reward for Yale.
Yale was already at the peak of the Practitioner Rank, and the system was the only reason for him being unable to advance, but completing the previous quest seemed insufficient to break that barrier.
The only thing that Yale could do at that moment was going to the Quest Menu to look for the next sub-quest.
“Obtain the Life Bloodline. Reward: Special Innate Talent.”
After seeing the next sub-quest, Yale smiled because that sub-quest was too easy for him at that moment. Moreover, that reward was far too alluring. After all, the Last Wish System was considered a Special Innate Talent, and although the usefulness of Special Innate Talents differed a lot, from useless talent to true cheat talents, Yale doubted that the system would reward him something that wasn’t good.
“Revgen before going out, return the Life Bloodline I left with you back then.”
Revgen nodded, and something went towards Yale’s body.
“You are the only one who can fuse with this bloodline, but by analyzing it, it was a great help for me when I wanted to advance to the Law God level in the Life Law. I shall give you thanks for that.”
There wasn’t any hesitation when Revgen returned that bloodline to Yale. Revgen was truly loyal to Liye back then, and the same applied to Liye’s reincarnation, Yale. However, even if Revgen would have been more selfish, that bloodline could at most serve as a material to study for anyone besides Yale.
Moreover, Liye left the Life Bloodline with Revgen to help him in his training on the Life Law. Revgen excelled in a part of the Life Law focused on supporting, like enhancing the power of the body or creating energy barriers, but the Life Law also included healing, and Revgen wasn’t that proficient on it.
Life and Death were quite special, and both had two different parts each one. By mastering one of the parts, the expert would be a Law Master, but to reach the Law God level mastering both were needed.
Even the mastered part would be far weaker until both parts had been understood.
After all, those were the only two laws that contained two elements within, and neither of the elements truly represented the law, only by mastering both, one could truly understand the powers of the Death Law and the Life Law.
“The user reached Origin Level 40.”
“The user reached Origin Level 41.”
“The user reached Origin Level 42.”
“The user reached Origin Level 43.”
“The user reached Origin Level 44.”
“The user reached Origin Level 45.”
“The user reached Origin Level 46.”
After Yale obtained the Life Bloodline he had completed the sub-quest, and the next one was just asking him to advance to the next Rank, and he advanced immediately as the restriction disappeared, so that quest was also completed. When the limit disappeared, Yale obtained all the improvements for his body and for the Origin Qi that had been blocked previously, skyrocketing Yale’s level.
Moreover, just obtaining the Life Bloodline had also improved his body; if it weren’t because his Dexterity was a bit lacking, he would have reached the 7-star Expert Rank in one go.
After all, the Life Law was deeply related with the body and the effects it granted to it was far superior to the other legacy bloodlines.
