Another Law, Water and Fire in Harmony
In the Xukong, at the place where Immortal Lord Liuyun fell.
Qingxue stared blankly at the storage ring that was slowly drifting down, completely frozen in place.
Immortal Lord...
That was Immortal Lord had mastered the Middle Law and was second only to the Emperor in the Azure Cloud Immortal Dynasty!
Just like that... he was crushed like an ant?
"Gulp."
She swallowed hard, and the look in her eyes as she looked at Dongfang Yueming was no longer one of awe, but rather one of near-worship for a god!
[Immortal General slaying Immortal Lord... This mythical feat actually happened right before my eyes!]
[If this were to reach a mid-level immortal dynasty, even the Immortal King would probably be alarmed, right?]
Dongfang Yueming remained calm as his Divine Sense forcefully surged into the remnant soul and storage ring of Immortal Lord Liuyun.
"Soul Search!"
The vast amount of memories was instantly filtered and eliminated, leaving only the most valuable parts.
[Ding! Absorbed Immortal Lord -level Law Enlightenment...]
[Progress of "Origin Immortal Art: Immortal Lord Chapter": 20%...40%!]
[Progress of "Origin Immortal Art: Immortal King Chapter": 0%...10%!]
"So the Immortal King chapter has been deduced too?" A hint of satisfaction flashed in Dongfang Yueming's eyes. "Although the progress is small, this is the ticket to becoming a true powerhouse."
Next came the inventory of supplies.
As a pillar of the nation, Immortal Lord Liuyun naturally possesses considerable wealth.
[Low-grade Immortal Stone: 1000000!]
[Mid-grade Immortal Stone: 20,000!]
[High-quality Immortal Stone: 100!]
[Tier 3 Low-Grade Immortal Weapon: Flowing Clouds Shuttle (Flying Type)!]
[Tier 3 Immortal Gold: 10 pieces!]
[Low-Level Law Crystal: Cloud Crystal x2, Water Crystal x3!]
"Huge explosion!"
Dongfang Yueming's lips curled into a smile.
Especially those 100 top-grade immortal stones, each one exuding a mesmerizing pure immortal aura, are excellent treasures for cultivation even if not exchanged.
"Let's go find a place to digest."
With a wave of his sleeve, Dongfang Yueming, along with the still-stunned Qingxue, vanished from the spot in an instant.
Watching his departing figure, Qingxue felt not fear, but rather an unprecedented sense of anticipation.
[How long has it been? He's already made such a huge gain.]
[Once he emerges from seclusion this time... he'll probably be able to put up a fight even against Late-Stage Immortal Lord, or even Immortal Lord Perfection, right?]
Shortly after the two left.
A streak of purple lightning and fire descended upon the area where a great battle had just taken place.
Purple Flame Immortal Dynasty -- Purple Fire Immortal Lord!
He originally came here following the clues about the robbery of the Crimson Cloud Mineral Vein, but on the way, he sensed the earth-shattering fluctuations of the laws here.
"Hmm? This aura..."
The Purple Fire Immortal Lord frowned, reached out and grabbed at the Xukong, as if grasping a few wisps of residual energy.
"It's that old Flowing Clouds's aura... and there's also an extremely domineering Middle Law?"
"Flowing Clouds is dead?"
Upon reaching this conclusion, Purple Fire Immortal Lord was suddenly startled.
Although he and Immortal Lord Liuyun were mortal enemies, he was also aware of the latter's strength. Could it be that a powerful Late-Stage Immortal Lord from another force intervened to kill Flowing Clouds?
"Wrong!"
He carefully sensed the surroundings and discovered that besides Flowing Clouds's aura, another aura, while possessing an extremely high level of laws, had a cultivation level that... seemed to be only at the Immortal General level?
"The mines of both great immortal dynasties have been looted... Flowing Clouds is dead..."
"Was all of this the work of the same person?"
A dangerous glint flashed in the eyes of the Purple Fire Immortal Lord.
"Immortal General rebels against Immortal Lord... This boy must possess a shocking secret!"
"We must nip him in the bud before he grows up!"
He discerned the spatial fluctuations left by Dongfang Yueming, then transformed into a streak of purple flames and chased after him with murderous intent!
Millions of miles away, inside a makeshift cave.
Dongfang Yueming sat cross-legged, with all the spoils of this trip laid out before him.
"System, redeem!"
[Ding! 1,000,000 low-grade immortal stones have been recycled, granting 1,000,000 Immortal Points!]
[Ding! 20,000 mid-grade immortal stones have been recycled, granting 2 million Immortal Points!]
[Ding! 100 high-grade immortal stones have been recycled, and you have gained 1 million Immortal Points!] (1 high-grade = 100 mid-grade = 10,000 low-grade)
Adding the previous balance.
[Current balance of Immortal Points currency: 7,345,503!]
"Seven million three hundred thousand..."
Dongfang Yueming took a deep breath, and the blood in his body began to boil.
"Late-Stage Immortal General, break through!"
[Point Allocation!]
[Ding! Consumed 2,430,000 Immortal Points, advanced to the Immortal General Eighth Layer!]
"Click click click--"
Inside the Origin Immortal Physique, the bones were reassembled once again, each bone seemingly transformed into indestructible divine metal, radiating an aura of eternal immortality.
[Ding! Consumed 2,430,000 Immortal Points, advanced to the Immortal General Ninth Layer!]
"Boom--!"
His Qi and Blood Like a Dragon, soaring straight to the heavens!
Dongfang Yueming felt his body brimming with explosive power, as if he could punch through the sky!
But when he looked at the needs of the next level, his movements paused.
[To advance to the Immortal General Perfection, 3,600,000 Immortal Points are required.]
[Current balance: 2,485,503.]
"A shortfall of over a million..."
Dongfang Yueming felt some regret, but she was not discouraged.
"If your cultivation level isn't high enough, you can make up for it with the laws of the universe!"
His gaze fell upon the three [Low-Level Law Crystal - Water] that emitted a blue aura.
"His Law of Fire has reached the intermediate level of Perfection, but his Law of Water is still at the lower level of Entry. It's like a cripple who can't walk steadily."
"If only the Law of Water could also be elevated to the middle position..."
"With water and fire working together, yin and yang complementing each other, my combat power will increase exponentially!"
"Absorb!"
[Ding! Absorption successful! Understanding of the Laws has increased!]
[bite!...]
With the three crystals inserted into my body, a flood of insights about the gentleness, inclusiveness, and vastness of water welled up in my mind.
"Point Allocation!"
[Ding! Consumed... Law of Water (Lower Tier) Perfection!]
But that's not enough!
Dongfang Yueming stirred his divine sense and once again mobilized the vast amount of laws within his body to comprehend them.
"The three laws united as one!"
"Give me... melt!"
"Buzz--!!!"
Within his Sea of Consciousness, three blue and white Law Rune collided violently!
A terrifying wave, vast as the sea and ever-changing, rippled out from Dongfang Yueming's body!
The moisture inside the cave instantly condensed, turning into frost, then into mist, and finally coalesced into a single drop... a deep blue droplet weighing as much as a thousand pounds!
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Fusion successful!]
[Achieve the Middle Law -- [Law of Gui Water (Perfection)]!]
Dongfang Yueming slowly opened her eyes.
His left eye flickered with crimson-gold flames, while his right eye surged with deep blue waves!
Blazing sun in my left hand, vast ocean in my right!
"When water and fire are in harmony, the Great Dao is initially formed."
He slowly clenched his fist, feeling the two completely opposite yet perfectly balanced terrifying forces within his body.
"Right now... even against Late-Stage Immortal Lord, I can... crush them head-on!"
At this moment, outside the cave, the world changed color.
The once clear sky was instantly covered by endless purple flames, and the clouds within a radius of tens of thousands of miles were instantly evaporated. The earth cracked, the grass and trees turned to ash, and the air was filled with a suffocating smell of sulfur.
"Boom--!"
A middle-aged man, clad in a robe of flowing Purple Flame flames and wearing a crimson-gold crown, stood in the Xukong, like a fire god descending to earth.
The strongest foundation of the Purple Flame Immortal Dynasty — the Purple Fire Immortal Lord!
"You little bastard, you've been hiding pretty well!"
Two purple divine flames burned fiercely in the eyes of the Purple Fire Immortal Lord. His divine sense was locked on the crumbling cave below, his eyes filled with savage killing intent.
"They killed my beloved general, they seized my mine..."
"Today, I will extract your Primordial Spirit and place it in this Purple Zenith Heavenly Fire to burn for ten thousand years, so that you may wish for death but not live!"
"Buzz--!"
The terrifying pressure of Mid-Stage Immortal Lord, accompanied by fluctuations from the mid-level Law of Fire, crashed down like a burning ancient divine mountain!
