Unlike the other factions within the Divine Wind Dynasty.
Every family that could become a national administrator in the Divine Wind Dynasty had at least one Emperor-level expert in the early days of its founding.
What's more, Emperor-level experts were not uncommon.
In powerful families, there were even more than one Emperor-level expert.
They had fought for the Divine Wind Dynasty and naturally knew many secrets of this world.
More than ten thousand years ago, the strongest expert of the Wind Element was not Lord Baier.
It was Lord Theresia of the Divine Wind Dynasty.
Lord Theresia was the Creator of the Wind Element Law and also the founder of the Divine Wind Dynasty.
It was rumored that after witnessing the power of more than a dozen other lords in the Heavenly Dao's Emperor-level ranking battle, Lord Theresia had focused on researching the Wind Element Law, complementing its weaknesses, and making the Wind Element Law stronger.
Moreover, Lord Theresia had long possessed the strength to prove the Dao and become an Emperor. However, through the experience of inscribing the laws into the Heavenly Dao when proving the Dao and becoming an Emperor, Lord Theresia knew that if she became stronger when proving the Dao, then the Emperor-level experts of the Wind Element who proved the Dao after her would be able to comprehend more and stronger laws.
Unfortunately, at this very moment, Lord Baier had surpassed her and was the first to prove the Dao and become an Emperor, ultimately turning Lord Theresia's plan into a bubble.
Later, when the nineteen super-powers in the Starry Sky Universe were in a chaotic war, Lord Theresia lost her Wind Element Dao Fruit, and her strength declined. To prevent the Divine Wind Dynasty from being attacked by other factions, she negotiated with Lord Baier, asking him to withdraw from the Divine Wind Dynasty so that the Divine Wind Dynasty could merge into Lord Baier's Divine Wind Dynasty.
Lord Theresia's actions avoided conflict between two territories that practiced the same Wind Element Law.
It was precisely because of the Divine Wind Dynasty's inclusion that the Divine Wind Dynasty did not suffer significant losses in that factional war.
Now, this group of top figures from the Divine Wind Dynasty discovered in this volume of cultivation theory left behind by Lord Theresia that Lord Theresia proposed that the laws imprinted into the Heavenly Dao by a "Creator" when proving the Dao served as a guiding light for later generations.
Upon reading this, many Emperor-level experts realized why, when fighting against other factions, they, as fellow cultivators of the Wind Element Law at the same level, were the weakest among all law cultivators.
What's more, even among those at the Emperor level, the strong ones could instantly kill Wind Element cultivators, fighting one against three, five, or even ten was common.
Were they really so much worse than others?
Now, from this cultivation theory, they understood everything.
Lord Baier was too weak when he proved the Dao and became an Emperor, and the Wind Element Laws inscribed into the Heavenly Dao were too weak.
Therefore, Lord Baier was the weakest in the Heavenly Dao's Emperor-level ranking. They, who had proven the Dao and become Emperors by cultivating the Wind Element Law, were naturally influenced by Lord Baier and were the weaker ones among the Emperor level.
Not only that, but in the distance between the Emperor level and the Heavenly Emperor, they also found it difficult to progress further due to the lack of Emperor-level laws in the Heavenly Dao.
After realizing all this, this group of people was stunned.
So, the reason for their current situation was actually Lord Baier?
If Lord Baier had not proven the Dao prematurely, but had allowed Lord Theresia to complete the Wind Element Law and fix its flaws before proving the Dao, would the Emperor-level experts of the Wind Element be in such an awkward situation today?
No!
Sensing that their mental power had become more impure, this group quickly reined in their thoughts.
Lord Baier was already quite irritable. If he discovered that the mental power they contributed was the source of this impurity, their lives would also be nearing their end.
They wanted to resist, but in the face of the vast power gap, they could do nothing.
However, looking at the name at the end of the cultivation theory in their hands, the group unanimously chose to observe.
Since Lord Theresia had appeared and made a move, could the shackles of the Emperor level of the Wind Element be broken by Lord Theresia?
If Lord Theresia could change all of this, then it wouldn't be impossible for them to join Lord Theresia's side.
...
"Rumble rumble rumble..."
In the vast universe, thunderclouds suddenly rolled, and the Heavenly Dao manifested.
The Thunder Palace appeared above the thunderclouds, with figures dimly visible on the three-tiered palace.
The lowest tier of the palace was the largest, with the most thunderous figures.
There were about forty or so people.
This was the current total number of Creators in the Starry Sky Universe.
Emperor-level Creators.
The second tier was for Emperor-level Creators.
The number was sixteen.
On this tier, the projection of Theresia was missing, and the projection of Baier was added.
Moreover, Baier's projection was at the entrance, serving as the gatekeeper for the Emperor-level Heavenly Dao ranking.
The third tier currently had only ten people.
These ten phantoms were all condensed from purple Heavenly Tribulation lightning, and each of them had a crown above their heads.
Supreme, supreme, supreme nobility!
Similarly, Baier was still the gatekeeper for the Heavenly Emperor's Heavenly Dao ranking.
It was unavoidable, as Baier had snatched the Wind Element Dao Fruit from Theresia by proving the Dao and becoming an Emperor first.
He was also worried that Theresia would use the same method, proving the Dao and becoming a Heavenly Emperor after perfecting her laws first, to take back the Wind Element Dao Fruit.
Baier focused his cultivation entirely on creating the Wind Element Law, neglecting to address his own shortcomings.
Currently, all Emperor level creators had developed their own divine bodies and possessed Law Divine Bodies, making them over ten times stronger than Baier, who lacked one.
The Heavenly Dao manifested, and the Thunder Palace condensed.
In an instant, everyone who had left a projection within the Thunder Palace felt it. Through the connections between their Dao Fruits, they linked their consciousness to their projections in the Thunder Palace.
Theresia had left a projection in the first level of the palace.
Although Theresia had lost the Dao Fruit bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, he had perfected the creation of the Wind Element Law, condensed it into his own Dao Fruit, and advanced to Quasi Heavenly Emperor. Thus, he could also gain the vision of his projection through the connections between Dao Fruits.
"It's her?"
Upon seeing the person undergoing tribulation, Theresia was surprised but not shocked.
This was because, in the Magic Universe, she had been a direct disciple of Lord Roy. Had it not been for unfortunate timing and the imbalance of power among the Four Great Rule Sovereigns, forcing her to refine a Low-level Earth Lord Godhead prematurely and become the fifth Rule Sovereign, she would have been the strongest Lord God below the Supreme God.
Even Destiny Sovereign Off, with all three Supreme Treasure sets, could not compare to her.
It was Tina, the Creator of the Law of Illusion!
In the starry sky, thunderclouds swept across several star regions. Even mortals on the planets could vaguely see the terrifying scene outside the universe.
The Heavenly Emperor's Heavenly Dao tribulation lightning had turned deep purple.
It contained a powerful will of destruction.
Anyone below Quasi Heavenly Emperor level would likely have their minds shattered and souls scattered under this powerful destructive will.
Her red hair fluttered, but Tina remained unfazed by the immense pressure.
With a wave of her sleeve, ripples suddenly appeared in the space around Tina.
Following this, two figures identical to Tina appeared behind her.
However, one of these clones was dressed in a yellow gown, while the other was in a red gown.
"Th-three? Three?"
"What kind of Law is this? To be able to cultivate two clones?"
"What a powerful Law; one person can be equivalent to three people of the same level?"
"Isn't that invincible?"
The Emperors of the Starry Sky Universe were astonished by Tina's two clones.
With their eyesight, the energy contained within these two clones was no weaker than Tina's main body.
However, the sixteen people who had also come to the Starry Sky Universe from the Magic Universe, and who were witnessing these two clones through their projections in the Thunder Palace, had their expressions change dramatically.
These two clones were precisely Tina's Earth Lord God Clone and Fire Element Divine Clone from the Magic Universe.
While others might not understand, they all knew that Tina's Earth Lord God Clone possessed strength at the Rule Sovereign level.
Even Tina's Fire Element Divine Clone possessed strength at the Law Sovereign level.
If the clones Tina created in the Starry Sky Universe also possessed the same strength as they did in the Magic Universe, then who among them could be Tina's opponent?
Even Lord Lilia, at best, was only slightly stronger than Emperor level creators.
In terms of combat power, that translated to a strength close to a Low-level Lord God.
They didn't believe Tina would create mere decorations.
As expected, the subsequent events confirmed their suspicions.
Tina's "Law of Illusion" had turned the false into the real, manifesting her two clones from the Magic Universe, both of whom possessed Sovereign-level strength.
Furthermore, while Tina used the "Law of Illusion" to maintain these two clones, their strength was not diminished in the slightest.
After all, this was an ability Tina inherently possessed. Compared to turning other things from false to real, manifesting these two clones was incredibly easy.
With firelight filling the sky, Tina's Earth Lord God Clone made no move, but her Fire Element Divine Clone had already attacked.
The blazing firelight incinerated Tina's Heavenly Emperor tribulation lightning into nothingness.
The subsequent Heavenly Dao Ranking Battle proceeded without much drama.
However, after challenging the other Heavenly Emperor projections, Tina gave up on further challenges and took a seat to the far right of Roy's throne.
"Sigh..."
Seeing this, many people let out sighs.
Since Tina had relinquished her claim to the chief position among the Heavenly Emperors, those who achieved Heavenly Emperor status after her could only compete for positions beyond the top three.
No matter how confident they were, they didn't believe they could possess Law Sovereign or even Rule Sovereign level strength immediately upon becoming Heavenly Emperors.
Of course, what surprised them even more was that the Law Tina had created could achieve such a feat. If Tina's comprehension of this Law increased further, could she manifest herself at the Supreme God level? Or even at the Immortal level?
Thinking of this, the sixteen individuals from the Magic Universe couldn't help but feel shocked.
However, they had misunderstood.
The essence of Tina's Law of Illusion lay in "deception."
Deceiving oneself, deceiving the surrounding environment, deceiving the perception of enemies, deceiving the Laws, and even deceiving the world itself.
The most important thing is to deceive yourself, to make yourself believe that you can do it.
If you don't believe you can do it yourself, how can you possibly deceive the environment, the laws, or even the world, and ultimately turn what is fake into reality?
Tina's physical strength was such that she was certain she could strengthen her body to the level of a Lord God Artifact, and she also possessed the experience of how to do so.
Therefore, she was able to use the Law of Illusion to turn the result of "her body had already been strengthened" into reality, allowing her physical strength to instantly reach the effect of a thousand years of tempering for others.
At this moment, Tina had also perfected the Law of Illusion she created, condensing it into her unique "Dao Fruit." With two layers of Dao Fruits stacked, Tina directly manifested her clones from the Magic Universe.
This was also because Tina was extremely familiar with her divine clones in the Magic Universe. These two clones were also herself, and she only needed to expend the power of laws to turn the fake into reality to summon these two clones.
Of course, the fact that Tina's two divine clones could possess their original strength was also thanks to Leilin and Roy.
If Leilin and Roy had not cultivated the Fire Element Laws and Earthly Laws to perfection, these two clones that Tina manifested in the Starry Sky Universe would not have possessed the Fire Element Dao Fruit and Earth Element Dao Fruit.
In that case, the strength of these two clones would definitely have been diminished.
After finishing watching Tina's Heavenly Emperor tribulation, Theresia looked up.
There, Baier, located on the third level, also saw Theresia through his Heavenly Emperor projection clone.
"Hmph!"
After the heavenly tribulation dispersed, Baier, in the Divine Wind Dynasty, opened his eyes and snorted coldly.
"Theresia..."
Baier did not regret back then when he achieved Emperorhood early and took the Wind Element Dao Fruit from Theresia.
As long as he could ultimately reach that supreme position, what did the lives and deaths of others matter to him?
"Heh, I thought you had some real ability, but now it seems you've come back to compete with me?"
When he saw Theresia in the heavenly tribulation projection, Baier understood that the issue of mixed mental power currently plaguing the Divine Wind Dynasty was definitely Theresia's doing.
"My laws are perfected, and I possess the Creator's Dao Fruit. My current strength is comparable to a low-level Lord God in the Magic Universe."
"Theresia's laws are perfected at most now, and she has condensed her own Dao Fruit. Her strength is a hundred times weaker than mine."
"No..."
Baier's mind compared his own strength with Theresia's.
"Theresia and those few people were the initial Creators..."
"Although I don't know what happened that caused Theresia to achieve Emperorhood later than me."
"However, the physiques of those guys were all very powerful."
"If my physical strength wasn't inferior to theirs, how could I have become a gatekeeper for Emperor level and Heavenly Emperor Dao rankings?"
"This means that Theresia, like those few, very likely strengthened her body to the point of being close to a Lord God Artifact."
"Looking at it this way, the gap in strength between me and Theresia might be less than a hundred times."
"But it's at least more than tenfold!"
