Chapter 561: Binding With Supreme Laws (2)
"The greatest ability granted by us Origin Laws is the Absolute Throne!"
"The Absolute Throne? Oh…" Max nodded nonchalantly.
Although it was the first time he'd heard of it, his blind trust in his father gave him confidence.
No matter the limitations, Max was certain they could reach the pinnacle.
Meanwhile, seeing Max's unimpressed reaction, the Supreme Law of Wrath began to boil with anger.
Finally, as if it had thought of something, it leaned forward.
"There is more… though I don't know if it's true."
"What is it?!" Max asked, his curiosity piqued.
"The qualification to become the Plane Master."
"Plane Master? So, I could become the Plane Master in the future?"
"Stop dreaming," the Supreme Law of Wrath jeered.
"This is just conjecture. According to Old Origin, if all of us recognize an individual, that person could become the Plane Master of the Aeon Plane, controlling its life and death."
"Hmm… I see." Max's eyes lit up as he thought of his father.
To become the Plane Master of the Aeon Plane, one would need to recognize all Origin Laws.
In that case, contracting the strongest Supreme Origin of Laws first would make convincing the weaker ones much easier.
"How strong are you among all the origin of law?"
"Hmph! I'm one of the strongest hundred of supreme laws!"
"That's good enough." Max nodded in satisfaction.
As Max and the others familiarized themselves with their newfound power, far ahead—by over a hundred floors—Asha lay listlessly.
"Sister Destiny, do I still have to continue this trial? I've already contacted you. Shouldn't the trial go back to normal?"
Earlier, Asha had been overwhelmed by her abnormal and seemingly limitless luck, making her doubt whether she was possessed.
She couldn't contact her family because they were on a different floor.
Although everything unfolded according to her will, it felt too good to be true.
Even the Origins of Law couldn't touch her, as if the universe itself would bend over backward to ensure her success.
Once, she even slept through a trial and woke up to find she had completed three floors.
Feeling unnerved by her uncontrollable luck, Asha grew a little scared.
Fortunately, the Supreme Law of Destiny appeared and explained the situation.
Understanding the root cause of her extreme fortune, Asha heaved a sigh of relief.
However, feeling the trials were too easy, she suggested that the Supreme Law of Destiny suppress her luck.
That's when the winds and rain of true trials began.
Without her blessing, it took her hundreds of tries to complete a single floor.
Nearly crying out of sheer frustration, she begged the Supreme Law of Destiny to bring back her luck.
Unfortunately, believing that Asha was too weak-willed and needed tempering, the Supreme Law of Destiny refused to coddle her.
Without a choice, Asha reluctantly pushed forward without her luck.
Still, the Supreme Law of Destiny granted her many unique and amazing powers, like the Eyes of Destiny, which allowed her to glimpse everything that would happen in the future.
Using these powers, Asha managed to rush ahead of her family by over a hundred floors.
Even so, exhaustion eventually caught up.
"No, you need to continue. The Goddess of Destiny cannot afford to be weak," the Supreme Law of Destiny chided.
"Goddess of Destiny? Me?" Asha asked with a twinkling eye.
"Yes. I see a future where you control the destiny of the Aeon Plane. Your role will be vital to helping your father."
"Helping Father? I see!" Hearing such a divine decree, Asha felt a wave of empowerment.
She looked up ahead with renewed determination.
"If I want to help Father, how could I back down now?"

As the Shadowcrest family began binding with the Origins of Law, others who subsequently entered the trial also initiated their contracts.
First came the Primordial Candidates.
Possessing origin-grade ultimate physiques, they were the most favored candidates, second only to Maximus.
These individuals were the pinnacle of talent ever produced by the Aeon Plane.
If not for the appearance of Maximus, they would have been the future overlords destined to lead the resistance against the dark creatures.
When they entered the trials that Maximus and the Shadowcrest family had endured, they blazed through them without pause, reaching the 160,000th trial in just a few hundred years.
However, like the Shadowcrest family, they eventually became stuck.
At that point, they, too, selected their favored Supreme Origin of Law—one of the strongest among the top hundred.
Next were the Masters of the River of Law.
Having carved paths of their own, although they could not reach the 160,000th trial, they still managed to secure a contract with an origin of law.
Then, there were the Masters of the Ocean of Law.
These individuals skipped the first 160,000 trials entirely and went directly to combat against the Supreme Laws that matched their unique paths.
Already having condensed their Ocean of Law, they now only needed a contract with an Entity of Law to condense the Absolute of Law.
With their immense, established power, negotiating with a Supreme Law was more a formality than a challenge.
As for the elites and saints from the top families, sects, and the devourer faction, most of them managed to secure contracts with an Origin of Law as well.
Although they hadn't yet condensed their paths or attained significant power, they were malleable and adaptable.
This flexibility allowed them to choose paths better suited to their newly contracted Origins of Law.
With tens of thousands of Origins of Law signing contracts with the beings of the Aeon Plane, the six Overlord Powers overlooking the event were filled with excitement.
Tens of thousands of potential absolute powerhouses!
Although it would take a long time and tremendous resources to nurture them into reality, it was still a hopeful future for the Aeon Plane.
After all, while the Overlord Powers could escape the Aeon Plane, all the strength and influence they had built here would vanish.
Without a home to return to, they would become refugees, wandering aimlessly in the Void of Chaos.
"Once the trial is over, it's time to initialize phase 2 of the plan…"
