Heaven's Laws - Prodigies - Additions

This is an addition to the end of chapter 72. In-between of Chao starting the crazy Space tier training and the actually battle.

---

Time in the Training Construct and fighting side by side with his wife was some of the most intense training Chao had ever experienced, but it wasn’t enough. He would often tunnel to the roof and sit there while he continued experimenting with the Laws. He and his wife were getting a tiny amount of time with the Laws as it was, so Chao would often spend the time he should’ve been sleeping looking for the breakthrough in his Sound and Space Laws.

The two higher tier elements were so different, and yet in many ways they were similar. Space didn’t have mass and neither did Sound. They were invisible to the eye, but easy to observe. But it was one observation in particular that made him think he might be onto something.

He’d already unlocked Morph with Sound. When using it, he was able to add emotion to the Sound he was working with, even if that sound or song wasn’t usually able to bring about the same emotion. Why music even caused emotion was something he didn’t rightly understand, nor was he sure if he could. But then why was he able to change the emotion of a Sound so drastically? Space was the container and Sound was contained by it, but for some reason Sound seemed to be able to contain emotion in a similar way.

Space was the undercurrent that all matter and energy existed within. Without Space, they ceased to exist, and yet without matter or energy, there could be no Space. With his Space Laws, Chao couldn’t change that. When he Created Space, it possessed something inside it, but that something he couldn’t control. When he reverse Created it, it then contained nothing at all. He thought that because he could control the emotion contained in Sound, that the Space Morph Law might allow him to control what was inside Space.

He dared to imagine what it would be like to control what was inside Space. It was even possible that he’d be able to place other elements inside of it. A Space wall that burned with tribulation Fire on side, or had the aura of tribulation Ice. A Space bend that contained Wind and could whisk him through quickly to greatly increase him movement abilities.

He tried to place things inside of Space in every way he could possibly imagine. Mimicking the way he did it with Sound was harder than he thought it would be.

So much of his time was spent trying to figure out how Sound could contain emotion. Was emotion naturally a part of Sound, or was Sound just the cause? Because he could manipulate it, there seemed to be reason to believe it was more than just the cause.

There was much time he spent on pondering those same questions, but in the end there were no miracles, and he was left with more questions than answers. He tried to think of what had brought on his unlocking of the Sound Morph Law, but it hadn’t been the contemplation of deep questions. It had been his personal experience with Sound and the emotions those experiences brought. The close he came to connecting emotion to what he heard, the more powerful his Morph Sound Law became.

Added to Chapter 77 when the perspective switches to Chao after Tengfi is killed and the massive Fire dragon goes nuts.

---

Since it was no longer necessary to chase after the Emperor who his wife desired to take care of herself anyways, he issued the dragon its final command.

This wasn’t just a dragon of Fire, but as his wife had been about to face the Emperor head on, he’d first though using Sound to distract them so that he could get a chance to strike at Tengfi one more time. It was only after his dragon’s roar was forming that he had the idea to take it a step further and cause an even larger distraction that they would have not choice but to face.

Chao had tried countless time to add elements to Space in hopes of unlock Morph, and he constantly practiced Sound Morph to better understand it. In all that time, he was trying to make his breakthrough with the prime element Space, but never once had he tried to add something more to Sound.

His Sound hadn’t even Awakened, but as Awakened Fire was added to it, it accepted it happily and something new was born. Chao wasn’t even sure if it was a Law at all. It may have been an extreme characteristic of Morph Sound, but he couldn’t be sure.

The Sound empowered Fire dragon split into two wagon sized monsters. They represented half of the Qi of his internal world. It had taken him two minutes of pouring himself into it to create his dragon in its original form. Then the twin dragons Enhance a final time, and tribulation flame now made up their horse sized bodies of gleaming blue.
