Chapter 269: Stone of Nomological Laws
“Sect Master, what is this?”
When he saw Qin Chuan’s expression, Guan Zexiao became even more curious about the black stone.
“This is the [Stone of Nomological Laws],” Qin Chuan replied.
“Stone of Nomological Laws?” Guan Zexiao had never heard of it.
Qin Chuan explained, “When I was preaching, I mentioned that the requirement for us cultivators to become immortals is to comprehend at least one nomological law.
“Although the laws are everywhere, they are extremely difficult to comprehend.
“But, that wouldn’t be the case if we had the [Stone of Nomological Laws].
“You can treat the [Stone of Nomological Laws] as a tutorial book. It can teach you how to comprehend and use laws.
“As long as you don’t have an extremely poor aptitude, you successfully comprehend laws in an extremely short period of time with the [Stone of Nomological Laws].”
Qin Chuan continued, “The [Stone of Nomological Laws] is like a precious treasure to cultivators.
“However, there are very few of them. Each piece is incomparably precious, and no amount of divine arts can exchange for them.
“The formation of the [Stone of Nomological Laws] can be categorized into Connate and Postnatal.
“Connate means it was naturally formed. These [Stones of Nomological Laws] are more precious than any [Postnatal Stone of Nomological Laws].
“This is because not only does the [Connate Stone of Nomological Laws] contain laws, it also contains a complete Great Dao.
“The so-called Great Dao is the end of our cultivation path.
“Comprehending the Great Dao is equivalent to you being the heavens, the ruler, and an existence equivalent to a Creator.
“From this, the might of a [Connate Stone of Nomological Laws] is evident.
“As for a [Postnatal Stone of Nomological Laws], it is formed after the death of immortals with extremely high comprehension of laws.
“For example, [Postnatal Stones of Nomological Laws] are irregular. The more complete the laws it contains are, the more precious it is. ”
Guan Zexiao immediately understood.
It’s no wonder the Sect Master looked so surprised when he saw this stone.
“Then is the [Stone of Nomological Laws] in their hands a Connate or Postnatal one?” asked Guan Zexiao.
Qin Chuan replied, “Postnatal, but it’s very complete.”
“Tss—” Guan Zexiao was shocked.
Because it was too complete, Qin Chuan had wavered.
Although he had inherited memories and could comprehend laws without much effort, this only allowed him to comprehend laws. If he wanted to reach a deeper level of comprehension and mastery, he could only rely on himself.
This would take a long time.
However, with the [Stone of Nomological Laws], he could save a lot of time.
In the later stages, the strength of the immortal cultivators would depend on how much of the nomological law they have grasped.
Qin Chuan could not help but feel tempted.
However, if he chose to help the Lomerians, he would face the powerful Beast Taming Corps.
Qin Chuan didn’t want to take the risk. After all, the planet behind him was not his private property.
It would be unfair if he sent everyone to their eternal doom because of his decision.
At this thought, Qin Chuan didn’t know what to do.
He discussed with Guan Zexiao whether to help or not.
Guan Zexiao felt that this matter had to be discussed with other countries.
Qin Chuan thought the same way.
Qin Chuan asked the Elder Tarot, “When will the Beast Taming Corps arrive?”
Elder Tarot replied, “If nothing crops up, it should be around half a year.”
“Half a year! Time is a little tight!” Qin Chuan frowned.
With his current cultivation level, Qin Chuan didn’t think he had a chance against the the Beast Taming Corps. He reckoned that he would only have a chance of winning if he reached Soul Splitting Realm.
However, he only had half a year. Normal cultivation certainly would not work.
He thought for a moment, then said to Elder Tarot, “We’ll go back and discuss this. I’ll give you an answer in two days.”
Elder Tarot did not say anything. Since the other party had given him a date, he had to wait.
After Qin Chuan and Guan Zexiao returned to the ground, they immediately informed the higher-ups of the various countries to hold a meeting.
During the meeting, Qin Chuan explained the general situation and the pros and cons in it. Whether they decide to help or not depended on the opinions of the various countries.
When the upper echelons of the various countries found out that an alien civilization was right above them, they were extremely shocked.
As the upper echelons of the various countries, they were naturally aware of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations.
However, they had never come into contact with them before. Thus, they were all extremely curious.
After the meeting started, the discussion was particularly intense. The leaders expressed their views and suggestions.
There were more voices who advocated not helping the Lomerians.
After all, the giant beasts of the Beast Taming Corps could destroy planets. Unfortunately, no one wanted to take the risk.
Qin Chuan also stated clearly that he didn’t have much of a chance of winning.
Still, some countries advocated to help them, and they were very firm.
They felt that since the Beast Taming Corps was able to discover the Lome Tribe, they would definitely be able to discover this planet. Even if they refused to help, there was a high chance of the Beast Taming Corps coming to their planet.
At that time, everyone’s fate might be the same as the Lomerians.
This analysis resonated with many people, and Qin Chuan had the same thoughts.
He knew how the immortal civilization had been destroyed.
The Beast Taming Corps followed the philosophy of beast taming, forcing others to cultivate and learn the beast taming system. But he was an immortal cultivator, and his goal was to get everyone to cultivate.
If the Beast Taming Corps were to come here, they would definitely get everyone to cultivate the art of beast taming. Then, how would my cultivation career proceed? Plus, if we don’t cooperate, the entire planet might get destroyed.
Thus, this Beast Taming Corps was a ticking time bomb.
Although their giant beasts were terrifyingly powerful, Qin Chuan would have a higher chance of victory if he reached the Soul Splitting realm.
It all depended on the opinions of the other countries now.
Soon, a day passed amidst intense discussion.
The next day, the leaders came to a decision after a night of thinking.
Everyone guessed that the Beast Taming Corps would come. Since that was the case, they couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.
The Lome race was an advanced civilization, so their chances of winning would greatly increase if they joined forces.
Soon, the higher-ups of the various countries expressed their opinions. Most of them agreed to help the Lomerians.
Since that was the case, Qin Chuan didn’t say anything more. He immediately flew to outer space to find Elder Tarot.
“Sir, have you come to a decision?” Elder Tarot asked expectantly.
Qin Chuan didn’t beat around the bush and nodded his head, “We have agreed to help, but our chances of victory against the Beast Taming Corps aren’t very high either.”
Elder Tarot said excitedly, “As long as you are willing to help us, we will be extremely grateful. The Lomerians will never forget this kindness. We will remember it forever.”
Qin Chuan smiled, “We will talk about the debt of gratitude in the future. There are some things that we have to be honest with each other.”
“Let me tell you about my situation first.”
Qin Chuan slowly said, “We should make it clear that the civilization level of this planet is probably not even at the first grade.
“Therefore, we cannot provide much help in weapons technology.
“As a cultivator, I am considered the strongest person, but not as powerful as I had imagined.
“Other than me, there are also some other cultivators.
“They are all my disciples. Although their realms aren’t very high, they can contribute significantly.
“That’s the general picture.”
When Elder Tarot heard this, he was not surprised.
After two days of detailed observation, he had roughly deduced the overall strength of this planet.
Because the civilization level was relatively low, this meant that the immortal cultivators here were not very powerful.
In the universe, the level of a planet’s civilization determines its strength.
There were very few planets that had low-level civilizations that were very powerful. That situation went against the universe’s theorem.
To be honest, Qin Chuan’s words had a huge impact on the Elder Tarot.
However, there was no other way. He could only take the chance and put up a desperate fight.
Just like that, Elder Tarot flew back to the mother ship and prepared to land on the planet where Qin Chuan was.
Qin Chuan had promised the Elder Tarot that he would provide them with energy to restore their spaceship.
The Lomerians would provide them advanced technology, and at the same time, they gave the [Stone of Nomological Laws] for Qin Chuan to study.
One month later…
