Seeing her nervous expression, Han Xuanji couldn't help but chuckle, comforting her in a gentle tone:
"Rest easy, there's no need to overthink it.
If True God Heiyan truly intended to harm us, he wouldn't need to go through all this trouble. The moment we stepped onto the battleship, he could have easily imprisoned or even killed us. Why bother putting on such an act?"
He paused, his gaze becoming a bit more steady:
"Don't forget, on this Heiyan Battleship, True God Heiyan is the supreme existence. His word is absolute Law. Even if he really killed us, none of the Cultivators in the fleet would dare to speak up for us, let alone question his decision. If he truly had ill intentions, there would be no need to grant us these privileges; it would be completely redundant."
Hearing this, Hun Qianling nodded slowly, the worry in her heart dissipating slightly as she murmured softly:
"What you say makes sense. Perhaps I am overthinking. It's likely True God Heiyan is giving us such preferential treatment out of respect for my father's Face and appreciation for your talent."
Han Xuanji nodded slightly and said nothing more. In truth, his certainty wasn't just based on guesswork. Back when they first boarded the battleship, he had quietly used the System's investigation function to probe True God Heiyan's thoughts.
The System's feedback showed that True God Heiyan was straightforward and sincere. He was truly teaching Hui Feng, and his attitude toward Han Xuanji was pure appreciation. He valued Han Xuanji's talent and Comprehension Ability and wanted to forge a good relationship, harborring no ill will whatsoever.
Otherwise, Han Xuanji wouldn't have dared to speak out so boldly. If he encountered someone narrow-minded, even if he were right, he might not meet a good end.
"Alright, don't think too much."
Han Xuanji patted Hun Qianling's shoulder and smiled,
"Since True God Heiyan has given us such excellent conditions, we should take the Opportunity to rest. At the same time, we can use the cultivation chamber to Cultivate for a while, striving to take another step forward before arriving at the Eternal Continent."
Hun Qianling nodded, a smile reappearing on her Face:
"You're right. We can't let such good cultivation conditions go to waste. Moreover, with True God Heiyan overseeing things, we can Cultivate in peace without worrying about the dangers of the Hongmeng Sea."
Taking advantage of this moment, Han Xuanji asked:
"Is practicing Way of Laws a strange thing on the Eternal Continent?"
He still didn't quite understand why those people's attitudes had changed so rapidly.
Was it just because he practiced Way of Laws?
If that were the case, wouldn't many of the top Powerful Experts in the Chaos be considered Geniuses of the Eternal Continent?
Sensing Han Xuanji's confusion, Hun Qianling explained patiently:
"Practicing Way of Laws on the Eternal Continent is not easy, especially using Way of Laws to achieve a Breakthrough to the Eternal Dao Master Realm."
As she spoke, Hun Qianling also explained the cultivation System of the Eternal Continent to Han Xuanji.
"At the dawn of time, only Eternal Deities existed on the Eternal Continent. Then, many Powerful Experts from the Primordial Chaos Universe achieved Transcendence. Ultimately, seven individuals discovered this miraculous land of the Eternal Continent. Originally, these seven shared an inseparable bond, exploring the new world hand-in-hand and bringing more Transcenders to the Eternal Continent.
However, over the long eons, their cultivation directions and philosophies began to differ, eventually leading to a split. The original Eternal Alliance transformed into three major powers, which are the oldest three among the Nine Supreme Powers."
This hidden history was not something ordinary people on the Eternal Continent would know; Hun Qianling had read it in an ancient text within her Family.
"The earliest cultivation Systems were Way of Laws, the Path of Soul, the Way of Bloodline... By now, many paths have branched out. However, not many can lead to the Eternal Saint King path. Only the Nine Supreme Powers possess Cultivation Techniques sufficient to reach the Eternal Saint King Realm."
"The reason Way of Laws is most famous is because the founder of the initial Alliance, Saint King Wendao, followed Way of Laws, and he is publicly recognized as the number one person on the Eternal Continent."
Speaking of this, Hun Qianling also felt a sense of yearning. During the initial exploration of the Eternal Continent, it was Saint King Wendao who carried the banner alone, breaking through to the Eternal Saint King Realm at an astonishing speed and defeating many Eternal Deities to carve out a living space for the many Transcenders.
"Saint King Wendao... how is he now? Has he broken through to an even higher Realm?"
Han Xuanji asked curiously.
"No,"
Hun Qianling shook her head and said:
"Saint King Wendao founded the Eternal Saint Domain, but after defeating a powerful Eternal Deity on the Eternal Continent, he disappeared. The Saint Domain later split into three powers: the Eternal Temple, the Holy Court, and the Eternal Sword Pavilion..."
"But this hasn't affected Saint King Wendao's status in the slightest. Even today, the leaders of the Nine Supreme Powers still hold him in the highest esteem."
"As for Way of Laws, not everyone has a talent for enlightenment like you... In fact, although many people live on the Eternal Continent, it doesn't mean it's easy for them to practice Way of Laws..."
Hun Qianling quickly explained the reason.
On the Eternal Continent, while eternal qi is abundant and many infants born there have extremely high starting points—for instance, the offspring of an ordinary Cultivator might start at the Immortal Realm, and descendants of Saint Realm experts might be born at the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal Realm.
They won't Face many Bottlenecks in their cultivation, which is something Chaos Creatures cannot compare to.
However, there is another problem on the Eternal Continent: the rules here are stable, as it is the land of the Supreme Origin. Trying to comprehend the Laws of heaven and earth here is difficult beyond measure.
Thus, Way of Laws has always been the exclusive choice of those with extraordinary Comprehension Ability, usually only dabbled in by the Prodigies of great powers.
This cultivation path is extremely difficult to start, requiring endless years to comprehend the Laws of heaven and earth and perceive the Dao. A slight lapse can lead to Qi Deviation or stagnation. But once one reaches a profound Realm, the upper limit is incredibly high, far more growth-oriented than other cultivation paths, with more comprehensive strength and varied methods.
On the Eternal Continent, many top Powerful Experts follow Way of Laws.
Over time, Cultivators on the Eternal Continent who follow Way of Laws have become more easily respected and favored by major powers.
Hun Qianling had originally followed the path of soul ascension, but after coming to the Chaos by chance, she also switched to Way of Laws. Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken her so much time to return to this Realm.
"So that's how it is."
Han Xuanji nodded, understanding now.
In other words, if practicing in the Spirit Realm and comprehending the Laws of heaven and earth is like doing kindergarten problems, and practicing in the Immortal Realm is like doing elementary school problems, then on the Eternal Continent, it's directly jumping into advanced university professional knowledge.
For the creatures of the Eternal Continent, having to comprehend the Laws of the Eternal Continent right at the start of their cultivation is simply too difficult.
Consequently, some experts from powerful forces send their descendants to the Primordial Chaos to practice Way of Laws until they reach the Chaos Dominator Realm, before returning to the Eternal Continent to make a Breakthrough.
