Upon entering the Cloud Top Sky, Qin Hao was completely awestruck by his surroundings.
His eyes met a world of pure white, where pristine clouds formed a colossal continent. Within this continent lay a boundless ocean, its azure waters so clear that the bottom was visible. In the center of the ocean stood a massive white palace.
Though extremely distant, Qin Hao could still discern the palace's appearance. It was a vast edifice formed entirely of ice, resembling a crystal palace.
Above the land, various islands made of clouds floated, and upon these islands, one could even spot creatures formed from clouds.
"This truly is a peculiar world, a world entirely composed of the Water Law." Stepping into this world, Qin Hao clearly sensed the pervasive aura of the Water Law throughout.
Whether it was the clouds, the seawater, or the palace, all were creations of the Water Law.
This was something Qin Hao had not anticipated at all. After all, a World Lord's world is formed when a Domain Lord breaks through to World Lord, and the formation of such a world cannot be separated from any of the Ten Great Laws.
Yet, the world before him was almost entirely dominated by the Water Law, so specialized that it hadn't collapsed.
After surveying his surroundings, Qin Hao stepped past the stone monument and headed towards the palace in the center of the ocean.
As the only structure in this entire world, it surely held the world's secrets.
"Splash, splash, splash."
The moment Qin Hao stepped into the ocean, the surrounding seawater rapidly converged, and massive Water Giants quickly formed. A total of 100 giants surrounded Qin Hao.
Each giant stood a hundred meters tall, emanating a faint blue glow that enveloped Qin Hao.
"First-level Water Domain!" Feeling the continuously stacking domains, Qin Hao's expression became much more serious.
One hundred Water Giants, each with a domain and Astral Rank Ninth Rank strength, posed little threat, but this was only the beginning. If the appetizer was already like this, the upcoming trials would demand Qin Hao's full attention.
Gripping the longsword formed from the Five Elements Ring, Qin Hao also released his Water Domain and directly attacked the 100 giants.
"Boom!" The battle ended in an instant. Under Qin Hao's attack, the Water Giants dissolved into seawater and merged back into the ocean.
Qin Hao continued forward. After advancing a hundred kilometers, the ocean vibrated again, and another 100 Water Giants formed, their Water Domain now reaching the second level.
After instantly annihilating the Water Giants again, Qin Hao pressed on. Another hundred li later, Water Giants appeared, and their Water Domain reached the third level.
He advanced a thousand li, with Water Giants appearing every hundred li, and their domain had already reached the ninth level. However, even the ninth-level domain Water Giants could not withstand Qin Hao's attacks for long and were quickly dispersed by him.
"The domain is already at the ninth level, and there are still three hundred li to the palace. Could the next stage involve comprehending the Water Law?" Qin Hao speculated, becoming even more solemn.
Advancing a hundred li, Water Giants appeared again. This time, each Water Giant carried a faint aura of law. Though only a trace of law, the difference from a domain was immense, with a vast disparity in strength.
"This Cloud Top World Master is indeed extraordinary. Even after his demise, he left behind such trials, capable of materializing laws." Qin Hao looked at these hundreds of Water Giants possessing the aura of law, growing even more curious about the Cloud Top World Master.
Generating various opponents with laws, domains, and secret techniques in the Virtual Universe relies heavily on the Virtual Universe's power. However, creating creatures with laws in reality is far more difficult than imagined.
After all, comprehending laws is one thing, but imbuing them is an entirely different matter. Even if these Water Giants weren't true living beings but more like puppets, it was still not easily achievable.
Without giving Qin Hao much time to think, the Water Giants directly attacked him. Their massive bodies, Astral Rank Ninth Rank strength, and the power of law forced Qin Hao to respond cautiously.
After all, despite his immense strength and deeper comprehension of laws, his Astral Rank First Rank body was still very fragile, and being hit by a law attack would be troublesome.
"Water Dragon's Roar!" The longsword in Qin Hao's hand trembled continuously, gradually forming a dragon's roar. With the release of the power of law, it stirred the surrounding seawater, transforming it into a water dragon that charged towards the surrounding Water Giants.
The Water Dragon's Roar, a move combining the Five Elements Ring with the Water Law, showcased Qin Hao's perfect mastery of this technique with its lifelike divine dragon. The moment the divine dragon collided with the Water Giants, its claws directly tore them apart, turning them back into seawater.
After dealing with the first Water Giant, the divine dragon absorbed the seawater formed by the Water Giant, its form expanding further. Following this, a series of collisions echoed across the ocean, and all 100 Water Giants shattered and vanished.
"The power of law is truly difficult to handle. I wonder what the next two trials will be?"
Continuing forward, Qin Hao stopped at the hundred-li mark. The surrounding seawater began to boil, and this time, the Water Giants formed noticeably slower. Qin Hao did not rush but carefully observed the process of the Water Giants' formation.
"I wonder how this ocean was formed, it's so miraculous." As Qin Hao marveled, 100 Water Giants had already formed. Each was stronger than the previous batch, having touched the threshold of law.
"This time, I'll have to show some real skill." Even a slight difference in law comprehension leads to a huge disparity in strength. The pressure from these 100 Water Giants far exceeded the previous batch, with the difficulty increasing by at least 5 times.
"Water Dragon's Roar!" Without waiting for the Water Giants to attack, Qin Hao launched his assault first. The Water Dragon's Roar was unleashed, rapidly attacking the Water Giants. However, he didn't resolve the enemies as quickly as last time, instead getting entangled by ten Water Giants.
"Water Dragon's Roar!" Qin Hao cast the Water Dragon's Roar again, and nine water dragons, with Qin Hao at their center, attacked the surrounding Water Giants.
Ten water dragons intertwined with the 100 Water Giants, attacking each other continuously, but neither side gained an advantage.
"Azure Dragon Scroll!" The ten water dragons let out a long roar, soaring into the sky, connecting head to tail, and merging to form a colossal Azure Dragon. Once formed, the Azure Dragon rapidly swept everything around Qin Hao. The hundred Water Giants were instantly shattered by the sweeping Azure Dragon.
"Only one more trial left." Having dealt with the Water Giants, Qin Hao continued forward. He grew even more curious about the Cloud Top Sky. The strength required for this trial was already comparable to the Genius Battle. Touching the threshold of law meant reaching the strength level of the final selection in the Genius Battle.
