Zhang Shundao Was Dumbfounded

After unleashing his strongest techniques, Zhang Shundao, a faint smile lingering on his lips, withdrew all his moves, flew down from the courtyard, and landed on the stone pavilion. He gently cupped his hands towards Lu Qing'an and the others, and said with a smile, "I made a fool of myself just now."

Li Muchen laughed, "You're quite the show-off."

"Haha, since you asked me to show off, I'll give it my all then," Zhang Shundao with a hint of smugness.

Lu Qing'an nodded in satisfaction. "Fellow Daoist's strength is indeed formidable. Welcome to join our Eternal Night Sect!"

At this moment, he was still working hard to deduce the Unification Rule. The Power of the Dao Source in his body was almost used up, but he quickly extracted his cultivation and converted it into Power of the Dao Source to continue frantically deducing the Unification Rule.

The Power of the Dao Source consumed in deriving the Unification Rule is indeed different; it is much more than when deriving other rules.

Therefore, it goes without saying how complex this Unification Rule is.

Zhang Shundao smiled and nodded, then looked at Li Muchen.

"Old Li, it's your turn now."

Li Muchen was about to nod, but Lu Qing'an gently shook his head and said, "No rush, no rush, I'm still studying Fellow Daoist Zhang's methods."

He was currently frantically working out the Unification Rule and didn't want to be distracted by working out other, more powerful rules.

If nothing unexpected happens, Li Muchen should also possess a very powerful set of rules!

After all, the fact that the two of them were able to become one of the top few Peak Eternal Realm experts in the Nine Directions and Ten Domains means they must have their own most proficient rules!

Zhang Shundao and the others were all moved by Lu Qing'an's words.

Research?

Wait a minute! Are you perhaps learning our rules and techniques for matching items?

That's not right. Learning this method requires having the same rules as us!

It's quite normal that Lu Qing'an could learn the techniques Lian Jie had previously used. After all, many people can comprehend Space Rule Space Rule, and it's not surprising that someone as powerful as Lu Qing'an could as well.

However, there are fewer than a handful of people in the entire Nine Directions and Ten Domains who can comprehend this kind of Unification Rule, and he is the only one who can cultivate this kind of rule to his level!

Zhang Shundao gave Lu Qing'an a serious look, his mind filled with mixed thoughts.

To truly understand his methods, Lu Qing'an would need to possess the Unification Rule and cultivate it to the mid- Late Stage stage!

Does Lu Qing'an also have access to these kinds of rules?

Just as they were thinking this, Lu Qing'an finally succeeded in his deduction!

The Unification Rule has been thoroughly deduced!

Lu Qing'an took a close look at the Unification Rule pattern in his sea of consciousness and his heart surged with excitement.

"Very good, very good. Just like the rules I deduced before, once deduced, it was almost perfected! Now my rules are almost at the same level as Zhang Shundao's rules! Now let's try out the two methods to strengthen my skills!"

He didn't need to study for too long. At this moment, just like when he was cultivating Divine Ability abilities, once he had the Unification Rule, he could instantly feel that he was fully capable of strengthening those two methods.

All that's left is to find someone to test it out!

So he looked directly at Zhang Shundao.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, I've figured it out completely. Would you like to spar with me sometime?"

Lu Qing'an wore a confident smile and slightly raised his chin towards Zhang Shundao, signaling Zhang Shundao to cooperate with him.

Zhang Shundao blinked, his eyes clearing slightly, and he couldn't help but swallow.

Are you serious about this?

You're not lying to me, are you? Do you think my methods are so easy to figure out?

Even if you possess the Rule of Cause and Effect, you couldn't possibly have such methods, right?!

You're not even human anymore!

Zhang Shundao took a deep breath and decided to verify it.

He refused to believe that Lu Qing'an could truly understand his methods so thoroughly!

"Okay, what do you need me to do?"

Lu Qing'an smiled and said, "You don't need to do anything. Just launch an attack on me, preferably your strongest strike."

Zhang Shundao nodded; he wanted to see what Lu Qing'an was up to.

In a flash, the two appeared high in the sky.

"Should we set up a barrier?" Zhang Shundao asked.

Lu Qing'an confidently shook his head. "No need, no need, it won't affect those below."

He could instantly neutralize Zhang Shundao's attack, so he didn't need to worry about the aftershocks affecting the courtyard below.

Zhang Shundao nodded, then without further ado, he acted decisively, using his strongest techniques and combining them with the Unification Rule to launch his most powerful attack on Lu Qing'an!

He wanted to see if Lu Qing'an had truly mastered his most powerful technique!

An extremely terrifying attack suddenly appeared, its earth-shattering power and pressure covering Fang Yuan tens of thousands of miles.

The three Peak Eternal Realm experts, Dao Lord Xuexiao, Lava Sage, and Lian Jie, also changed their expressions drastically upon sensing the terrifying power of this attack.

If they were hit by this attack, they would definitely die!

The difference between people at the same level can be so vast!

If all three of them were like this, then it goes without saying that it was Li Wensong and Xiao Qingyi who were like this.

Both of them were slightly pale.

Li Muchen stared intently at this moment. For some reason, he could vaguely sense a feeling in Lu Qing'an's calm demeanor that did not belong to their level!

"Could it be that those who have mastered the Rule of Cause and Effect are no longer at the Peak Eternal Realm?" Li Muchen wondered to himself.

Seeing that Lu Qing'an remained calm and composed, displaying an invincible demeanor, Zhang Shundao was somewhat moved.

Okay! Let's see how you handle it!

A terrifying attack instantly shot towards Lu Qing'an!

Lu Qing'an didn't do anything; he simply put one hand behind his back, raised the other, and gently waved it forward!

In an instant, Zhang Shundao's powerful and terrifying attack, which possessed the Unification Rule, was actually categorized into one type from within by an even stronger Unification Rule.

Then, a powerful Mirror Rule appeared, enveloping the entire attack. A soft light filled the attack, like a gaping maw, instantly devouring all its power. The attack, containing world-destroying power, instantly transformed into a soft ball of light, finally merging into the void just ten feet from Lu Qing'an, completely disappearing as if it had never existed!

Their first encounter has now come to an end!

Everything has returned to calm!

The surroundings were indeed calm, but people's hearts were not.

At this moment, everyone's heart was pounding wildly, especially Zhang Shundao's, whose heart was being struck by thunderous blows.

This... this is impossible!!!
