Primordial Sin System



Chapter 290-Law of Illusion

Dave was deeply moved by his encounter with Tracy, despite having just met her. He quickly realized that Tracy was the type of person who treated everyone kindly and with respect.

"Can you show me your laws?" Dave asked, feeling like he might be asking for too much. However, he didn't want to let this opportunity slip away.

Tracy smiled, sensing that it was her moment to shine. "Certainly, let me demonstrate my Law of Illusion."

She gracefully moved her hands, and suddenly Dave felt as if he had been transported to a completely different place. It was as if he had lived multiple lives, experiencing childhood as a farmer's child, then reincarnating as different individuals. He felt trapped in an endless cycle, unable to break free no matter what he tried.

Despite feeling drained of his spiritual energy, Dave decided to sit down and contemplate. He realized something profound. "Ancient Eyes."

Dave channeled his energy into his eyes, enduring the pain that surged through him. He knew he had to stay calm and cherish this opportunity. His eyes transformed into a mesmerizing purple color, granting him the ability to see everything around him, including various energies. He quickly memorized the intricate structure of the illusion.

Suddenly, the illusion shattered before Dave's eyes, and he found himself back in front of Tracy, who looked at him with disbelief. "What the..."

Tracy was about to utter profanities, but she managed to restrain herself, her shock turning into astonishment.

"You broke my Grand Stage Illusion Law?" she exclaimed, her gaze fixated on Dave's purple eyes. She felt a sensation of her soul being sucked into an endless void of darkness, but it quickly returned to normal, his eyes regaining their golden hue.

Dave let out a sigh, feeling the strain in his eyes from forcefully utilizing his Ancient Eyes. It was his first time using this ability, and he hadn't anticipated it would be powerful enough to shatter the Law of Illusion.

"As expected from the system," Dave mused. He never underestimated the skills he acquired from the system. He had even asked if he could level up without fully comprehending any law to 50% using sin points, and the system had confirmed it was possible. However, he was aware that his foundation wouldn't be as stable, and there was a risk of backlash.

His sin points continued to accumulate, even when he wasn't actively using them. He planned to utilize them when the need arose.

Suddenly, Dave cried out in pain, clutching his face as he realized his eyes were bleeding.

[Ding! Your Ancient Eyes have memorized the entire structure of the Law of Illusion.]

[Ding! Law of Illusion has been acquired.]

[Perfected Law of Illusion]

[Due to the forceful use of Ancient Eyes, your eyesight will be lost for a week.]

Dave screamed in agony, but he was taken aback when he heard the notification from the system.

"Arghh!"

Tracy was stunned by the sudden change and rushed to Dave's side, offering assistance in healing his eyes and alleviating the pain. After ten minutes, Dave's agony subsided, but he found himself unable to see.

Dave burst into wild laughter, leaving Tracy bewildered, unsure if he had gone mad. She blamed herself for his current condition.

Realizing Tracy's concerns, Dave reassured her that he would be fine in a week. He laughed because he realized he had actually gained something rather than suffered a loss. He had obtained a Perfected Stage Law in exchange for a week of blindness. Losing his eyesight wasn't a major setback, as he could still accomplish many tasks using his other senses or retreat to his space world to rest until he recovered.

The Perfected Law held immense power, and although he was tempted to test it, Dave resisted, knowing it wasn't the right time. Nonetheless, he felt elated that he didn't have to work as hard as Tracy, who had only comprehended the Law of Illusion to the Grand Stage after living for a much longer time.

Currently, Dave could level up to the Imperial Saint Lord, but he was suddenly confronted with a new mission.

......

[Ding! The host has triggered a new mission.]

[Ding! Comprehend ten laws to the Perfected Stage while being Imperial Saint.]

[Reward: Instant Breakthrough to Low Imperial Saint Emperor]

[Additional Rewards: ?????]

......

The mission imposed by the system prevented Dave from attempting to become an Imperial Saint Lord. He understood that the system wouldn't assign such a mission unless it was beneficial for him.

"There must be a reason," he thought.

Dave conjured a shade out of thin air, using various treasures he had obtained through extortion. He then focused his senses on Tracy and asked, "Have you ever heard of someone comprehending ten laws to perfection while being an Imperial Saint?"

Tracy was taken aback by the question but pondered for a moment before recalling something. "I've never heard of someone achieving perfect comprehension of ten laws while still an Imperial Saint. However, I have heard of an individual who comprehended seven laws to perfection before breaking through to True Saint. It is said that the deeper one's comprehension, the stronger they become, and the quality of their power surpasses that of others. Even I can only cultivate to the Grand Stage of law as a Divine Monarch. This person was a legend in the celestial plane, but is no longer alive."

Dave was astonished, prompting him to inquire further. "Who was this figure?"

Tracy replied, "He was known as the Ashura King. The legend and deeds of the Ashura King were renowned throughout the celestial plane, and they struck fear into the hearts of many. He was even more terrifying than some demon kings, yet he ultimately met his demise."

Dave was stunned, realizing that the Ashura Clan had a history intertwined with his Spirit World in the mortal plane. He hadn't expected the Ashura King to be a legendary figure who had achieved perfect comprehension of seven laws while being an Imperial Saint Emperor.

Tracy continued, "When the Ashura King became a True Saint, he immediately challenged numerous Heavenly Sovereigns who were two major realms higher in cultivation. Remarkably, the Ashura King emerged victorious. His exceptional talent made them a target for other races, but it only fueled his growth. By facing killing intent and danger head-on, the Ashura King rose to prominence, becoming the strongest king of the Ashura Race."

Dave contemplated Tracy's words, trying to decipher why the system wanted him to comprehend ten laws to perfection while still an Imperial Saint Lord.

"So, if I complete this mission, I can become an extraordinary super-duper genius?" Dave wondered, sensing that this might be the case. The system didn't want him to be ordinary like everyone else; it had paved a different path for him. He could already feel his strength increasing due to the newly acquired law.
