My Talent's Name Is Generator

Chapter 1223: Ripples

After that, the battles continued.

I did not bother counting them anymore. Nine more figures emerged from the silver ocean, each carrying a different weapon and each possessing the same golden thread embedded within their foreheads. I fought them one after another, using every battle to deepen my understanding of Space. There was no need to waste time describing each exchange. The process itself was simple. I fought, comprehended, adapted, and fought again.

With every figure I defeated, my understanding of Space climbed higher.

Eventually, I realized that I had already surpassed the limits of the Major Law of Space. What I understood now was no longer something that could be described simply as a perfected Law. I had reached the very boundary beyond it, standing directly before the door of the Origin.

And then another figure emerged from the silver ocean.

It was holding a long sword in its hand. Its entire body was formed from the same silver spatial energy as the others, and once again, a thin golden thread rested at the center of its forehead.

I looked at it quietly.

The figure took a step and vanished.

My eyes narrowed slightly as I felt the spatial fluctuation, but I did not move. In the next instant, the figure appeared directly in front of me, its sword already thrusting toward my throat.

The blade approached with terrifying speed.

Yet I simply watched.

It reached my throat. And then it passed straight through.

There was no resistance. The sword simply passed through my body as though I did not exist.

The figure froze.

A faint smile appeared on my face.

I had already understood what it was trying to do. It had used Space to teleport directly beside me and launch an attack by completely ignoring the distance between us. But after reaching the boundary of the Origin, I could now do something similar in reverse.

I could make myself separate from the Space that defined my position.

For that brief moment, I was not there.

Before the figure could react, I raised one finger and casually flicked its forehead.

The effect was immediate.

Its entire silver body trembled violently before collapsing inward. Its arms, legs, torso and even the sword in its hand were crushed together, compressed into a single point of silver light.

Then that point vanished but the golden thread remained.

It floated quietly in front of me for a moment before flowing toward my body and merging into my forehead.

BOOM!

Something seemed to explode inside my mind.

A door that I had been standing before for what felt like an eternity suddenly opened.

My understanding of Space erupted.

The knowledge I had accumulated through all those battles suddenly began connecting together at a speed I could barely comprehend.

My consciousness expanded.

The silver ocean surrounding me seemed to disappear.

There was no longer a distinction between myself and the Space around me. I could see endless distances collapsing into points, points expanding into infinite distances, boundaries forming and disappearing, and countless spatial relationships connecting everything that existed.

I stood there completely still, my mind lost in the vastness of Space.

I slowly raised my hand and moved it through the empty space in front of me.

The Space rippled.

It moved like water beneath my fingers, spreading outward in countless delicate waves before gradually settling back into stillness. I watched those ripples quietly, a strange feeling growing within me. Space no longer felt like something distant that I had to manipulate through Laws or techniques. I could feel it responding to me naturally, as though there was an invisible connection between us.

I looked around the endless silver ocean surrounding me and suddenly understood what had changed.

This was not simply a manifestation of Space.

It was as if I had finally connected to a vast river, an endless source of Space that had always existed within the Origin Expanse. I could not see its beginning or its end, but I could feel that connection. I remained silent for a while before thinking about the next step.

I had already awakened the Origin of Space, but there was no reason for me to rush toward the Demi-God realm yet. The moment I formed my Divine Core, I would officially step into the next realm, but I could still use this opportunity to awaken more Origins first.

My gaze slowly swept across the endless void.

Time would be next.

After Time, I would move toward the four basic elements. Fire, Water, Earth and Wind. If I could awaken all of them here before forming my Divine Core, the foundation of my future cultivation would undoubtedly become much stronger.

Of course, I knew this would not be easy.

Space had already taken me through countless battles and an enormous amount of comprehension before I could even touch its Origin. Time would certainly not be any faster, and the four elements would require their own understanding as well.

I would need time.

A lot of it.

Since I had already accepted that, there was no reason to waste even a moment.

I closed my eyes and summoned all of my summons.

One after another, their figures appeared within the blank void. The moment they arrived, they immediately looked around in confusion. There was nothing here. No stars, no planets, no ground beneath our feet, and not even the familiar presence of ordinary Space. Only the endless emptiness of the Origin Expanse surrounded us.

I gave them a brief explanation of where we were and what I had discovered. I told them about the Origin Expanse, the figures I had fought, the golden threads they carried, and how defeating them had allowed me to deepen my comprehension until I finally touched the Origin of Space.

They listened carefully, and once I finished, I looked at all of them.

”Now I want all of you to meditate on Time.”

They exchanged glances but quickly understood what I meant.

The connection between us had always allowed my summons to benefit from my growth, but this time I wanted to make use of that connection in another way. If they could comprehend Time alongside me, their understanding could also feed back through our connection and help accelerate my own comprehension.

I sat down within the endless void and closed my eyes.

The others followed.

There was no need for further discussion.

We had a long road ahead of us.

And so, after reaching the Origin of Space, I began my next journey.

Time.

What followed was no longer a battle measured in days or weeks. It became a long period of cultivation and understanding, with all of us silently meditating within the Origin Expanse as our comprehension of Time slowly began to grow.
