Heaven-Defying Comprehension Triggered Again, Gate of Space! Return to Kunlun!

After leaving Buzhou Mountain, Qin Mu did not linger and directly tore through the Void to travel.

Now that his cultivation had broken through to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal level, he had initially mastered the Space Law, and his traveling speed far surpassed what it had been before.

What surprised Qin Mu even more was this.

Every time he leapt through the Void, he unexpectedly gained a deeper understanding of the laws of space-time.

Was it because of Heaven-Defying Comprehension?

Qin Mu secretly guessed.

Earlier, when he had sparred with Xing Tian in that Small World and faced his Three Axes of Heaven-Opening, his Heaven-Defying Comprehension had been triggered.

And under the boost of Heaven-Defying Comprehension, Qin Mu had unexpectedly comprehended the peerless divine ability, the Heaven-Opening Sword, in an instant.

It was precisely by relying on the Heaven-Opening Sword that Qin Mu had defeated the Great Witch Xing Tian.

Just as Qin Mu was pondering this, a system notification suddenly rang out in his mind:

[Ding!]

[Heaven-Defying Comprehension triggered!]

[During space-time travel, you have comprehended the true essence of the Space Law and created the divine ability—Gate of Space!]

Along with the system notification, profound and mysterious truths concerning the Space Law instantly surged into Qin Mu's mind.

These mysteries not only encompassed the creation and distortion of space, but also allowed one to travel freely through the empty Void.

Very quickly, Qin Mu comprehended all of these mysteries.

When he opened his eyes again, a sharp gleam flickered within them.

Then, with a thought from Qin Mu, a mysterious rune immediately condensed in his palm.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Qin Mu sent the rune flying outward.

Golden radiance bloomed, and a resplendent gate of light directly emerged in the Void.

Within the gate of light were locations he had once set foot upon.

"Th-this is the Gate of Space?"

Qin Mu cried out in shock, his face filled with disbelief.

This Gate of Space divine ability allowed him to condense a Portal of Time and Space.

"Excellent."

"Wherever I wish to go in the future, I need only leave a Space Mark and I will be able to arrive there swiftly."

"I never expected that merely tearing through the Void to travel would inadvertently trigger Heaven-Defying Comprehension and allow me to comprehend such a heaven-defying divine ability as the Gate of Time and Space!"

Qin Mu sighed in wonder.

Though the Gate of Time and Space he had comprehended could not casually traverse the myriad heavens like a Saint's could,

for a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, it was already a heaven-defying power!

After his excitement subsided, Qin Mu composed himself, nodded in satisfaction, and stepped into the Gate of Time and Space.

Outside the mountain gate of Kunlun Mountain, ripples spread through space.

Amid five-colored rays of brilliance, a Gate of Time and Space appeared.

Immediately afterward, a figure slowly walked out from within it.

The newcomer was none other than Qin Mu, returning from his travels at Buzhou Mountain.

"Whew!"

Qin Mu let out a long breath and could not help but remark,

"Though this Gate of Time and Space can speed up travel, it consumes quite a bit of magical power!"

"And the Heaven-Opening Sword is the same."

"In my earlier battle with Xing Tian, using the Heaven-Opening Sword nearly drained all the magical power in my body."

Qin Mu sighed with deep feeling.

Although he had comprehended divine abilities such as the Heaven-Opening Sword and Gate of Space through Heaven-Defying Comprehension,

these two divine abilities required an enormous amount of magical power to use.

Even with his current Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal cultivation, it was somewhat more than he could bear.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Mu came back to himself and looked around.

As he gazed at the towering immortal mountain before him, wreathed in clouds and mist, its spiritual energy rolling like tides, a sense of familiarity could not help rising from the depths of his heart.

After all, he had stayed at Kunlun Mountain for a very long time.

"In the blink of an eye, several thousand years have passed."

"I wonder whether Master, Eldest Martial Uncle, and Second Martial Uncle are all well now?"

"And have Duobao and Yu Ding found the opportunities fated for them at Kunlun Mountain?"

Qin Mu murmured to himself. Without giving it much further thought, he flew down toward Kunlun Mountain's gate.

Before long, he had arrived at the mountain gate.

Qin Mu raised his hand and lightly tapped, sending a stream of magical power from his hand into the mountain gate.

At once, the Prohibition of Kunlun Mountain's Mountain-Protecting Array was undone by the magical power Qin Mu had sent in.

However, just as Qin Mu was about to step inside, a shout suddenly came from within:

"What living being dares trespass upon Kunlun Mountain?"

As the cold cry rang out, a figure suddenly darted out from the mountain gate.

Soon, a young Daoist appeared before Qin Mu.

This Daoist wore a dark robe and had a stern expression.

He held a Dust Whisk in his hand, immortal light coiling around it.

"Hm?"

At the sight of this young Daoist, Qin Mu frowned, puzzled.

Strange!

When did Kunlun Mountain gain someone besides the Three Pure Ones?

Qin Mu hesitated inwardly.

When he had left Kunlun Mountain to travel, only the Three Pure Ones had been there.

Yet now that he had returned, an unfamiliar Daoist had blocked his path.

After pondering briefly, Qin Mu swept his gaze over the young Daoist not far before him, studying him more closely.

With Qin Mu's cultivation, he naturally saw at once that this young Daoist was merely at the Golden Immortal level.

While Qin Mu was observing the Daoist,

the Daoist was also examining Qin Mu, filled with doubt.

Who exactly is this person?

The aura around him belongs to a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal!

But that cannot be right. Even a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal should not be able to open Kunlun Mountain's Mountain-Protecting Array.

The more the young Daoist thought about it, the more deeply his brow furrowed, his heart full of confusion.

Kunlun Mountain's Mountain-Protecting Array had been personally arranged by the Three Pure Ones.

Throughout the entire Primordial World, no one but a Saint in person could break this array.

After hesitating, the young Daoist came back to himself.

Before he could say anything, Qin Mu spoke first:

"I am Qin Mu."

"The chief disciple under Tongtian. Who are you?"

Upon hearing Qin Mu's words, the young Daoist was instantly shocked. He stared at Qin Mu with a face full of disbelief.

"Y-you are Qin Mu?"

the young Daoist asked in astonishment.

Qin Mu nodded and gave a soft hum.

"That is correct. It is me."

The young Daoist was ecstatic. As a disciple under Yuqing Yuanshi, he had naturally heard Qin Mu's name before.

He was the eldest senior brother among the Three Pure Ones' Disciples.

He had entered Kunlun Mountain earlier than any of them.

"So it is Eldest Senior Brother Qin Mu!"

"I am Daoxing, a disciple under Yuqing Yuanshi!"

"I offended you just now. I hope Senior Brother will forgive me."

Having said that, the Daoist named Daoxing bowed respectfully to Qin Mu.

"Hm?"

"A disciple under Second Martial Uncle?"

Qin Mu uttered in surprise.

He instantly understood.

During the time he had been traveling outside, the Three Pure Ones had begun taking disciples of their own.

"If that is the case, Duobao and Yu Ding should have both become Three Pure Ones' Disciples, right?"

"I just wonder whether that matter has happened yet?"

Qin Mu muttered to himself.

Before climbing Buzhou Mountain, he had told Duobao and Yu Ding that their opportunities lay at Kunlun Mountain.

Moreover, while others did not know this, Qin Mu knew it very well.

After the Three Pure Ones took disciples, differences in their teachings caused their conflicts to intensify day by day.

In the end, the Three Pure Ones split apart!
