Space Second Grade, Root Out!

"Ding, congratulations to host for comprehending the Combat Law. Reward: Cultivation Method Upgrade Permission unlocked."

As the system's voice rang out, Xie Fang's Personal Attribute Panel also appeared before him.

Unlike before, above the options for Divine Abilities and Laws, there was now an option to use Experience Points to raise the grade of Divine Abilities and Laws.

After glancing at the Experience Points required to upgrade Spatial Divine Ability and Combat Law, Xie Fang tapped on Spatial Divine Ability.

Immediately, the Experience Points in the pool decreased by one hundred million, and the Spatial Divine Ability in the Divine Abilities column evolved to Second Grade!

"Ah—"

At the same time, a wave of exhilarating comfort surged through him. Xie Fang couldn't help but let out an ah, and instantly, he perceived the changes within himself!

This Spatial Divine Ability was originally a lifebound divine ability inherent to his true body, the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, stemming from the same source as the Slaughter Origin, though the Origin and the lifebound divine ability were not identical.

Due to his cultivation base, his Spatial Divine Ability had never reached its peak. In fact, over the years, Xie Fang had focused solely on raising his realm and never actively cultivated his lifebound divine ability, leaving it stuck at First Grade.

If he tried to cultivate such a divine ability on his own, it could take hundreds of thousands of years without even a single step forward!

"I never thought that comprehending a Combat Law would raise the system's permissions, allowing me to use Experience Points to upgrade the grade of Divine Abilities and Laws."

Xie Fang now understood completely.

"What I urgently need right now is to quickly harvest Experience Points and urgently learn divine abilities, spells, and even Laws, so I can grow stronger!"

In an instant, Xie Fang set his short-term goal.

"Since I can't go up Buzhou Mountain anymore, I'll seek opportunities elsewhere first!"

With that thought, Xie Fang's mind flickered. Space tore apart, and the Second Grade Spatial Divine Ability erupted with power, directly teleporting his figure hundreds of millions of miles away!

"I could have done this before, but it was never this effortless. It seems divine abilities and Laws must be upgraded!"

What troubled Xie Fang was the shortage of Experience Points!

Upgrading Spatial Law from First Grade to Second Grade required one hundred million Experience Points, but from Second Grade to Third Grade, it needed a full three hundred million!

If this exponential growth continued, who knew how many Experience Points it would take to max out the Spatial Divine Ability!

That aside, the Combat Law, even at just First Grade, required a staggering two hundred billion Experience Points!

"Damn, this system is really ruthless!"

Xie Fang couldn't help but sigh: "How many years do I have to harvest to earn two hundred billion Experience Points..."

Just as he was worrying, a commotion suddenly reached his ears.

"You mongrel still dare to complain to the elder?"

"Hmph, don't you know that Brother Huo Xuan's grandfather is the elder?"

"Look at you—weak cultivation aside, your bloodline is so mixed you're a disgrace to our Kirin Clan!"

"Damn it!"

The voices seemed to ring right beside him, but they were actually hundreds of millions of miles away!

After all, Xie Fang had once spent tens of thousands of years climbing to the halfway point of Buzhou Mountain with his late-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal cultivation.

Raising his eyes, Xie Fang saw, hundreds of millions of miles away, three fiery red Fire Kirins beating a Ink Kirin, showing no regard that this Ink Kirin was also one of their own kind.

Looking closer, that Ink Kirin had a meager cultivation base, merely at the Mystic Immortal realm, naturally no match for the three Fire Kirins, who were at least late-stage Golden Immortal.

Moreover, most of the Kirin Clan were pure-blooded, with a single attribute like water or fire.

But that Ink Kirin possessed all five elements, a mixed bloodline. In this Primordial World where the strong preyed on the weak, such weakness was a mistake from birth.

Xie Fang, however, paid it no mind. He wasn't a savior, and besides, he had his own matters to attend to.

The Kirin Clan carried heavy karma. Their patriarch, Shi Qilin, was no weakling, and Xie Fang had no intention of provoking them for now.

So, with a single step spanning tens of millions of miles, he prepared to leave Buzhou Mountain.

Going down the mountain was far faster than climbing up, and with his Spatial Divine Ability upgraded to Second Grade, he reached the foot in no time.

"Hey, Brother Huo Xuan, look! Someone's coming down the mountain!"

Just then, one of the Fire Kirins bullying the Ink Kirin spotted Xie Fang's figure and called out.

"Hm?"

The Fire Kirin called Huo Xuan turned his head, his eyes immediately lighting up.

"Grandfather said there are treasures all over this mountain, but the patriarch forbade us from going up. This creature came down from the mountain—he must have found something!"

With that thought, greed flashed in Huo Xuan's eyes.

The Kirin Clan was no small force, and as the descendant of an elder, Huo Xuan knew every clan member.

Seeing Xie Fang, a stranger, descending the mountain, he instantly saw an opportunity to seize treasure!

"Huo Yun, Huo Yu, you two go stop this brat!"

Huo Xuan immediately ordered the other two Fire Kirins, saying, "How dare he swagger right through our Kirin Clan's territory? Did he ask for our permission..."

The other two Fire Kirins obeyed without question, nodding and heading straight for Xie Fang.

Xie Fang's brow furrowed slightly. Even though he could directly use his Spatial Divine Ability to teleport away, he didn't like this sneaky feeling.

Back when he had no strength, lying low and developing in the shadows was a necessity. But now that he was a late-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal—practically a top-tier expert in the Primordial World—how dare a mere three late-stage Golden Immortal Fire Kirins bare their fangs at him?

"Looking for death!"

A cold snort!

Immediately, Huo Xuan and the other Kirins felt a bone-chilling cold surge into their hearts!

"Ding, congratulations to host for killing Fire Kirin, gaining Experience Points +5000."

"Ding, congratulations to host for killing Fire Kirin, gaining Experience Points +5000."

"Ding, congratulations to host for killing Fire Kirin, gaining Experience Points +5200."

Three consecutive system notifications heralded the fate of the three Fire Kirins.

"Over five thousand experience..."

Xie Fang curled his lip. As his own strength increased, even Golden Immortal-level beings only gave him a little over five thousand Experience Points now.

"Senior..."

Just then, a slightly timid voice called out.

Xie Fang focused his gaze. The Ink Kirin who had been bullied by his own kind was looking at Xie Fang with a mix of fear and hope in his eyes.

"Heh, I almost forgot about you."

Xie Fang said, "As they say, root out..."
