Chapter 44 CHAPTER 43 : The Origin Ball

Joey sat down and started comprehending the law inside the room. After ten minutes, a golden color qi was concentrated above his head and it entered directly into his head. Then, Joey stood up and walked toward the 2nd floor.

" The law in this place is metal. Let's see what is on the 2nd floor." Joey thought in his head.

He reached the 2nd floor. There were around ten youths currently comprehending the law in this room. He walked silently, sat down, and started comprehending the law inside this room again. Like on the 1st floor, after ten minutes he comprehended the law in this place. A green qi was also concentrated and entered his forehead. The law of this room is wood.

Likewise, he quickly passed the floors up to the 6th floor continuously. On the 6th floor, he learned fire law. Only two youths are inside this room. His sister is not there anymore. So, he walked up to the 7th floor. When he just entered the room on the 7th floor, his body started freezing.

" From the 1st floor to the 6th floor, they have laws of metal, wood, earth, wind, water, and fire. But they were all basics of the law. But this 7th has the extreme coolness of the water law. Alright, this will be more interesting. " Joey said to himself. He then sat down and started comprehending the law of ice.

Unlike the previous floor, it has become more challenging to understand the law of ice. Also, his body started freezing with more time. Firstly his legs turned to ice, then started spreading the ice upward his head. He knew if the ice froze his head before comprehending the law, he would be dead for sure. After an hour later a clear crystal formed and entered his forehead and defrost the ice all over his body.

" Alright, let me go to the next floor."

He entered the 8th floor. The room was filled with many strong whirlwinds. He too comprehended the law after an hour there. Then he entered the 9th floor. The room on the 9th floor is filled with lightning inside. He got hit multiple times after a few steps. He saw his sister sitting inside while comprehending the law of lightning. He too sat down and started comprehending the lightning law.

For ten minutes the lighting continuously hit all over his body causing him numb and extreme pain at the same time. After that, that feeling goes away. Then, he started concentrating on how fast the lightning fell on his body and the numbness he felt all over his body after the hit. Like that six days quickly passed away. On the seven days, a white color qi was concentrated and entered his forehead. Then he opens his eyes slowly.

" Xiao di, good. Let's go to the last floor together." Tang Mie lien suggested.

" Zi Zi, let's go." Then they both enter the last floor. Just before the door of the room, there is a symbol of the swastika with some description.

' To enter the next room. One should drop a drop of blood.'

They both dropped a drop of their blood on the swastika symbol. Then an invisible aura surrounded them and threw them inside the room. At that time a mechanical voice spoke out, " The female has space law in her blood so, she will be transferred to the space law room. While the male has a trace of time law in his blood, so he will be transferred to the time room. If you fail these tests, both will die."

Inside the room, Joey saw many images of his childhood, adulthood, and even his old age. He became freaked out at seeing all this. When he saw his childhood image, his body turned to that image and likewise, his body kept changing from a child to an old man than to the child. The cycle keeps repeating again and again. But the bad thing is that his soul sea became smaller and smaller. If this goes on his soul will be exhausted, and he will die both in body and soul.

" I can't keep doing this. What should I do now?" Joey murmured.

He started trying to comprehend the law of time by looking at those images. But, he yielded nothing. At last, he thought, " Then, let me try with my cultivation technique this time."

Then he started chanting the first sentence of the Heavenly corruption manual's mantra. This time the changing of the body slows down.

" Good, it's working. Then he chanted the mantra and started comprehending the time law looking at those images slowly."

This process goes for around ten days. On the 11th day, his body returned to its current body shape and stopped changing completely.

" Hahaha, I comprehended the time law here." Joey laughed out loudly.

" Hey, boy. Come here." A husky voice spoke out. From the corner of the room.

Joey walked at that side and saw a dried-up man in a strange position.

" Who are you? What are you doing here?" He asked.

" Boy, the first break this time locked array around me. If you help me this time you will gain a lot of karma. Also, are you from the earth? " The skeleton old looking man asked.

" Senior, how do you know about earth?" Joey asked with surprise. This man was the first man who knew about the earth. So, he had a lot of mixed emotions. But, he still doesn't trust the man yet.

" I know it because I was born on the earth. I felt the qi of earth in your body, it comes from half of your soul. Also, a strong earth's karmic power in your body." The man replied.

" Alright, I will try to undo that time-locked array. But, you have to make a swear in the heavenly Dao to never harm me in any way. " Joey said firmly.

The man nodded and swore to the heavenly Dao as he suggested. After that Joey walked toward the array and started studying its mechanism.

He kept studying the array for a month but he still couldn't crack it.

Seeing that the dried-up man suggested, " Boy, why don't you use the time law you just comprehended now on the array."

Joey nodded. Then, he used his soul energy to activate the time law he comprehended. A white color ball appeared in his hand. He then threw the ball toward the array. Then the array started transforming back to how it is made from the beginning and then it changed back to the original array again.

" Hahaha, it worked." Joey cheered.

" Keep practicing boy. You created that technique. What will you name it?" The old man asked.

" Since this skill can return an object to the time it was not made before. I will name it ' The Origin ball'." Joey said.

" Keep practicing boy, to the point that it can make something change back to the past without returning to the present form. " The man suggested again.

Joey agreed and made another Origin ball and threw it at the array again. Like before, the same thing happened. He tried to make another ball but his soul was at the critical level. So, he fainted.

" So, his limit is two of that Origin ball."
