Coiling Dragon: I Transcend with Earth Element

Standing amidst a village littered with corpses, Roy let out a soft sigh.

He was the creator of this world, and by all rights, the beings within this Universe were his children.

However, human emotions always showed favoritism.

Although these ferocious beasts were stronger than humans, their potential was limited due to their lack of intelligence.

Roy desired that all myriad paths in his created world flourish, and humans were an essential pillar of that.

Unfortunately, although Roy had used the power of time to kill the ferocious beasts in these villages, the elderly who had attracted them had also lost their life force.

About half an hour later, people slowly emerged from the caves behind the village. They were initially startled by the corpses of the ferocious beasts, but after realizing all the beasts were dead, they entered the caves to call out the women and children.

Even though a group of loved ones had been sacrificed, those who survived had to continue living.

The women skillfully began butchering the meat of the dead ferocious beasts with bone knives. The older children looked after the younger ones, while seven or eight-year-old children were already helping the adults, learning how to survive in this world.

After everyone had repaired their homes, they discovered a treehouse and an unfamiliar man on the other side of the village.

The villagers remained somewhat wary of the stranger, observing Roy from a distance without approaching him.

However, their inherent simplicity led them to send a few children to offer some roasted beast meat when preparing food.

Roy nodded slightly at the villagers who were peeking over, accepted the beast meat, and thanked the children.

From then on, Roy settled in the village and began to develop a cultivation path tailored to the physical bodies of humans in this Universe.

The Starry Sky Universe that Roy had opened up currently had only two Laws.

These were the Space Law and the Time Law, which Roy had designated as the "foundation of the world."

But these two Laws had already merged into the "River of Time and Space" and, along with the "Heavenly Dao," were integrated into the Starry Sky Universe. Without sufficient strength, one could not even come into contact with them.

Without access to Laws, there was no way to cultivate.

In other words, for the beings in the Starry Sky Universe to have a complete method of cultivation, someone had to first create a "Law." Once recorded by the "Heavenly Dao," others could then cultivate by methods similar to the Law's originator, making it easier to comprehend that "Law."

The humans Roy had the most hope for, due to the harshness of survival, were not even qualified to cultivate. Thus, even though billions of years had passed in the Starry Sky Universe, not a single new Law had been added to the "Heavenly Dao."

Therefore, what Roy needed to do now was to open up the first "Law" that humans in this Universe could cultivate and comprehend.

In order for the "Law" he created to be recognized and recorded by the "Heavenly Dao" of the Starry Sky world, Roy retained only the Soul Power that matched his current body and began his cultivation journey.

Without Laws, there were two methods to increase one's strength.

First, to enhance one's physique through a structured regimen of exercise.

Second, to gain control over oneself through extensive, scientific practice, unleashing one's full potential, or even multiple times their strength.

Roy possessed extensive experience in both these areas.

In the Magic Universe, when Roy traveled to material planes to spread Magic, he had also learned about the cultivation methods of warriors in the Magic Universe.

Currently, Roy stood with his legs shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and fists loosely held at his waist.

Then, he maintained a calm mind and sought his most natural breath.

"Qi Gathering Stance."

This was the most widespread cultivation stance in the Magic Universe, improved over countless years by numerous powerful individuals, making it the most suitable method for warrior cultivation.

With Roy's experience, he found his rhythm after just two or three breaths.

Faint tingles of numbness spread from various parts of his body into his mind.

"This is effective!"

Feeling his body's state, Roy's heart filled with a slight joy.

The Qi Gathering Stance, in the Magic Universe, was a cultivation posture that allowed one to reach the level of a sixth-level warrior.

In the Starry Sky Universe, even without other Laws or elements to absorb, consistent practice would allow one to rapidly digest food to strengthen their entire body.

Simultaneously, this state of全身麻痒 (symptoms of tingling and itching throughout the body) also led to a greater understanding of oneself, allowing for better control of one's power and the unleashing of strength far exceeding the body's limits.

Perhaps finding it amusing, the children in the village would occasionally mimic Roy's stance. Roy patiently guided their postures, encouraging them to find their natural breathing and begin cultivating.

Occasionally, Roy would also join the adult men of the village on hunts.

Of course, their prey consisted of beasts smaller than humans.

It was then that Roy noticed that the villagers primarily used bows and arrows.

The arrowheads were made from the teeth of a rodent called a "Stone-Eating Rat," the bow was a branch from an ironwood tree near the village, and the bowstring was extracted from the beasts Roy had killed.

Although the tendons of the ferocious beasts were not as resilient due to their age, they were still ten times stronger than those of ordinary beasts.

The weapons in hand were also curved knives or spears, meticulously crafted from the bones of the beasts Roy had recently slain, their sharpness and hardness far superior to wooden implements.

This allowed the village, which had lost some of its fighting strength, to maintain its hunting yield despite having fewer people able to venture out.

On the contrary, with Roy's addition, they could hunt even more prey.

Roy's performance was observed by everyone in the village. Despite his slender build, Roy's strength and speed far surpassed those of the strongest men in the village.

Consequently, it was not just the children, but even the adult men and women, who would follow Roy to learn the "Qi Gathering Stance" whenever they had free time.

"Haa!"

At the eastern entrance of Taoyuan Village, in front of a treehouse, seven or eight children were gathered around, watching two children battle in the center. They shouted encouragement and advice.

"Big Ox, hit his head!"

"Tiger Cub, kick his butt!"

The children in the ring were around ten years old.

Although they were young, their fighting was serious, and the sound of their fists and feet breaking through the air was sharp and fierce, no less than that of adults.

No, it wasn't just that they weren't worse than adults.

Seeing the small pits they'd stomped into the ground, it was clear that even adults probably couldn't do this.

Occasionally, women would hear the children's voices and just smile.

At the same time, they respected Lord Roy even more in their hearts.

Ever since the villagers started practicing the "Qi Gathering Stance" under Lord Roy, their strength had increased several times over the years.

Now, Taoyuan Village hadn't needed to enter caves to avoid the hunt of ferocious beasts for three years.

On the contrary, the village's greatly strengthened youths were now capable of hunting ferocious beasts that were two to three times larger than humans.

These children, who had been cultivating the "Qi Gathering Stance" since they were young under Lord Roy, the strongest among them were not much weaker than the youths in the hunting parties.

It was thought that by the time they reached the age for hunting, their strength would be even greater.

At that time, it wouldn't be the ferocious beasts hunting in Taoyuan Village, but the hunters of Taoyuan Village who would actively hunt the ferocious beasts!

They held great expectations for the future.

Less than three kilometers from Taoyuan Village, in a mountain stream, there was a waterfall dozens of meters high.

Beneath the waterfall, a person stood, enduring the falling water while throwing punches.

After three years of arduous training, Roy had cultivated his current body to the peak of a level six warrior, enabling him to fully control his body and unleash one hundred percent of his strength.

Unlike the joy of the Taoyuan Village villagers, Roy, as the creator of this world, knew that the ferocious beasts that currently preyed on humans were considered bottom-tier in the entire Universe.

They were merely food for other, more powerful ferocious beasts.

There were meteor-class ferocious beasts the size of small mountains, planet-class ferocious beasts the size of mountain ranges, star-level beasts from the Starry Sky Universe the size of planets, and star-devouring behemoths comparable in size to galaxies that fed on stars...

As humans cultivated and their strength increased, the more energy they contained within their bodies, the more and stronger predators they would attract.

To survive, they could only become stronger, dominate their era, and be invincible in the world to protect humanity's peace.

Roy, through his creator abilities, sensed countless humans being hunted by ferocious beasts within the Starry Sky Universe. He felt the anger in his heart and transformed that anger into unmatched power, throwing punch after punch at the waterfall cascading from above.

At this moment, in Roy's eyes, the waterfall was like the torrent of fate that threatened to destroy humanity. Standing beneath the waterfall, he was moving against fate, a martyr seeking to break humanity's doomed destiny.

Finally, at a certain moment, Roy's state of mind and the sorrow and indignation of resisting fate completely aligned. With a punch, he directly caused the dozens-of-meters-high waterfall to surge backward.

After throwing this punch, Roy closed his eyes to contemplate his realization.

After three years of bitter cultivation, coupled with the spirit of seeking survival amidst the death of billions of humans for a month, Roy had finally created a nascent law within the Starry Sky world.

"Momentum!"

In the Magic Universe, for a warrior to achieve the Saint Realm, they needed to comprehend "Heaven and Earth's Momentum," which was a trace of the profound mysteries of the laws in the Magic Universe.

The Starry Sky Universe only had Space-Time Laws, so there was no "Heaven and Earth's Momentum" for humans to comprehend.

What Roy had created at this moment was his own "Momentum."

But whether it was one's own "Momentum" or that of Heaven and Earth, both were considered nascent forms of laws.

Now, Roy only needed to continue cultivating his "Momentum." When his "Momentum" reached great accomplishment, it would transform into a law, be recorded by the "Heavenly Dao," and become the "Dao" of the Starry Sky world. Future generations, by following Roy's method, could easily cultivate "Momentum."

Currently, this "Momentum" had just been created by Roy. For others to comprehend Roy's "Momentum," the difficulty was almost a hundred times greater than when a "Dao" already existed.
