These two strange creatures travelled for nearly a year. They traveled during the day, rested at night, drank water, and ate wild beasts.
Along the way, they kept the boxes on the woman's back carefully and didn't dare to relax in the slightest. No matter what they were doing, the two creatures would glance at the boxes from time to time. They seemed to be their most precious treasures.
A year later, the two creatures entered a few cities, and in three months' time, they arrived at the capital of the empire, which had 500 million creatures.
After waiting in the capital for a month, they finally obtained the right to see the Emperor.
In a dark hall, many servants and ministers sat around a dark golden throne. On the throne sat a tiger-headed creature. He was tall and clad in heavy armor.
Two bizarre creatures entered the hall and crawled in front of the emperor while kneeling.
The Emperor said slowly, "I am a lucky king who leads a lucky empire. In the past thousand years, there has never been a natural disaster, the last words of my ancestors made me understand how precious this is. At the same time, I have also done my best to avoid human calamity, to purge the rule of law, to sympathize with the will of the masses, to eradicate local tyrants, to encourage education and to spread knowledge. My thinkers have discovered a new law, a law that is still weak and appears only in some corners of the empire. I fear it will be a disaster, but my thinkers cannot give me an answer. They can't be sure what law it is, and they don't know when it will affect my empire. Since ancient times, many people have wanted to accurately predict the law, but it's too difficult to do it.
"Yes, my Emperor." The two strange creatures finally opened the box that they thought was a treasure.
Next, he brought out a fist-sized ball.
It looked like it was made of metal. It had many layers, and each layer was covered with a layer. The workmanship was extremely fine, and it even seemed like it was crafted by some supernatural means. After this spherical object appeared, all the servants and ministers could not help but look over. Even the emperor leaned over.
This little ball is too delicate.
"My Emperor, we are also unable to accurately measure the Laws." The strange creature spoke out.
The Emperor frowned, and several of the guards raised their axes.
The strange creature panicked and immediately said, "The Emperor's thinkers are the wisest people in the known world, they are led by the wise emperors, they are unable to determine the fluctuations of the laws, we are also unable to do it, this thing cannot be done, but this thing is something we made, it is something that will not be affected by any external force, it is a time calculating device that has been constantly operating. We call it 'clock'.
With this, the emperor's empire would have an accurate time, and the empire's thinkers could use this time to observe the laws, or to deduce the time of their changes. "We cannot predict the laws. We can only help the Emperor and the Empire to better understand this world and observe it."
After the strange creature finished its sentence, it slowly raised the sphere, causing a small spiral to fluctuate.
The ball spun.
This spherical object had ten levels, and was divided into ten different levels. It was quite detailed, using the very original wind-up principle, unlike the strange creature said there was no error, but there was still some, only very small. Indeed, it was much more accurate than all the instruments used to measure time in this empire.
The Emperor received the sphere and pondered for a long time before saying, "You all have contributed greatly to my empire."
The guards around him withdrew their weapons.
The servants began to praise the two strange creatures.
"Stay. Become my thinkers. Use your wisdom to benefit my people. I give you all honor."
"Thank you, Emperor."
Meng Fan nodded, "From observing this world with the naked eye to experiencing it, to now, they have started to observe this world with instruments. Using watches and such things that have nothing to do with the law of time to express time, allows all living beings to understand time. Although the concept of time that they understand has nothing to do with true time, even causing all living beings to be confused and unable to understand the essence of time, they still took a big step forward in general."
"From the time of the clock onwards, all living beings have been trying bit by bit to show off and control the laws." The old man said.
Eighty years later, the emperor of this empire died and the new emperor ascended to the throne. In these few decades, the number of living creatures in the empire had increased to an astonishing 600 million. Fortunately, the old emperor had once again established his territory and planted more plants, so the famine did not occur, and there was still room for growth. Most importantly, the new laws that he had deduced did not have any effect on the empire.
The new emperor had taken over a fairly good country.
But the old emperor had given the new emperor many warnings not to let his guard down, so the new emperor still encouraged governance, and the empire was still glorious and powerful.
It was another eighty years. The new emperor was already very old and the great empire had reached its peak, the number of living beings had increased to eight hundred million. Then, laws appeared to strictly restrict the reproduction rate of living beings and to redivide the cultivated land.
The new emperor was content when he died.
Just a few years after he died.2
The hidden law finally began to show its power.
It was a law that Meng Fan had never seen or heard of.
In the ancient times, there were many rules like this. Since Meng Fan didn't know, it meant that the rules had disappeared before the Heavenly Dao appeared.
At first, the effects of this kind of interference were not great, but on the contrary, it was a good thing. The gravitational force that was affected became weak, and all living beings moved as if they were flying.
But as the gravitational pull grew weaker and weaker, things had become extremely frightening.
In the eastern part of the empire where the gravity was the weakest, a huge city collapsed and floated into the air. Countless boulders, fragments, and creatures were flying randomly in the air.
And then, within the Empire, the gravitational pull began to decay in all directions.
All living beings only needed a slight jump to fly into the air. To land back on the ground would instead become very strenuous and very difficult. Not only did the city begin to fall apart, the earth, mountains, and rivers also began to crack and rise into the air.
The abnormal gravitational pull had also caused several terrifying meteors to rain down.
The thinkers of the great empire made the decision to save the nation.
They declared that this land could not be lived on. Only migration.
Just like countless civilizations in ancient times.
They were migrating.
This empire was just a microcosm of the great wastelands of the universe during this period.
Everywhere in the primal chaos of the universe, all civilizations and nations began to try and use their own methods to manifest their laws.
The age of sages was about to arrive.
