Chapter 1755: The First Law

As expected, the Feather tribe wanted to stir up trouble in the Great Void.

After Yu Zhenghai, Zhao Yue, and Ye Tianxin landed next to their master, they looked at the b.l.o.o.d.y ground and shook their heads. If those people knew this would happen, they would not have dared to do such a thing in the first place. Perhaps, the trio had grown numb to such a scene, they did not feel much.

Master, the Feather tribe is deliberately opposing us, Yu Zhenghai said.

Lu Zhou scoffed. Ive met that Emperor Yu once. Hes very cunning. When we handle the things here, Ill seek justice from him.

Zhao Yue said, Master, something doesnt feel right. Why is Emperor Yu doing this?

Is he trying to stop us from comprehending the Great Dao to protect the Pillars of Destruction and the Great Abyss Land? Ye Tianxin asked.

No, Lu Zhou said, It cant be that simple. As the leader of the Feather tribe, he wont risk the lives of his tribesmen for no good reason. Although I dont have a good impression of him, he truly cares a lot about his tribe. He can be considered a good leader. With his ability, he shouldve guessed the pillars would collapse sooner or later. Otherwise, he wouldnt have given the Heaven Suppressing Pestle to me so easily.

Then, is it possible that Emperor Ming Xin has something to do with this?

Yu Zhenghai said, Thats not very likely. Ming Xin cant wait for us to comprehend the Great Dao. Ming Xin has yet to make his move. For some reason, hes very anxious for us to comprehend the Great Dao and become supreme beings. Does he have some big scheme that has something to do with us?

This reminded Lu Zhou of Ji Tiandaos plan when he was alive. At that time, he had wanted to use his disciples lives to break through the eight-leaf limit.

Could it be that Ming Xin has a similar plan?

Well discuss this later, Lu Zhou said. There were more important things to be done at this moment.

Rumble!

The upper core exploded.

Lu Zhou raised his head and saw rocks and pebbles in the air.

The surviving cultivators on the ground looked at the flying rocks with ashen faces. They were going to be buried alive!

Lu Zhou raised his hand and pushed the Confinement Seal out.

The Confinement Seal expanded rapidly, turning into a mountain that blocked the flying rocks.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The rocks, debris, and rubble hit the Confinement Seal and slid to the ground.

After a while, things gradually calmed down, and Lu Zhou put away the Confinement Seal. When he looked up, he saw Yu Shangrong hovering in the air, holding the Longevity Sword.

Yu Shangrongs body was glowing faintly; he looked like a different person. When a few of the stones flew toward him, he casually waved his sword.

Bang!

It was as though Yu Shangrong was slicing tofu. Then, he waved his sword again, and a black hole appeared in the void in front of him.

Second Senior Brother has comprehended the Great Dao! Ye Tianxin said excitedly.

Congratulations, Second Senior Brother! Zhao Yue said.

Yu Zhenghai also smiled and said, Second Junior Brother, Ill let you take the lead this time.

Yu Shangrong disdained to argue with Yu Zhenghai about this. He said, Thank you for letting me win, Eldest Senior Brother.

When Yu Shangrong landed on the ground, a golden halo appeared under his feet for a moment. Half of the 18th leaf could be seen. He bowed and called out, Greetings, master.

Lu Zhou nodded. Its good that you comprehended the Great Dao. What laws have you grasped?

Ye Tianxin said first, I comprehend the great law of s.p.a.ce.

Then, Ye Tianxin flashed, appearing in eight different places before returning to her original position in just a blink of an eye.

Zhao Yue looked envious when she looked at Ye Tianxin. Then, she said, Master, I dont know if Ive comprehended a great law. I Theres just an indescribable feeling.

Lu Zhou was curious. Theres such a thing?

Master, please enlighten me, Zhao Yue said, mustering up her courage before she asked to spar with Lu Zhou.

Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, and Ye Tianxin looked at Zhao Yue in surprise.

Yu Zhenghai could not help but give Zhao Yue a thumbs-up. Amazing! Eldest Senior Brother admires you!

Lu Zhou did not expect Zhao Yue to make such a request as well. He said, Okay.

Lu Zhou flipped his palm and circulated his energy. Primal Qi churned like a vortex in his hand before forming a palm seal before he pushed it out

The dazzling golden palm seal flew out. It was not very powerful since Lu Zhou had intentionally held back. Even then, it was not something ordinary Dao Saints could withstand.

Zhao Yues body began to ripple like water before she turned incorporeal. After the palm seal shot through her body harmlessly, she returned to normal again.

Hm? Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow.

Zhao Yue spread her arms and said helplessly, Thats what it looks like. I dont know what law it is

Let me try, Yu Zhenghai said before he unleashed the Great Dark Heavenly Palm. It was faster and more overbearing than Lu Zhous palm seal.

Zhao Yue hurriedly raised her hand and unleashed a palm seal of her own.

Boom!

When the two palm seals collided, it could be seen that their forces were almost the same.

Yu Zhenghai said, Thats amazing. Junior sister, the force of your palm seal is the same as mine!

A thought appeared in Lu Zhous mind, and he said, Balance.

Balance?

Yu Zhenghai, Yu Shangrong, and Ye Tianxin looked at Lu Zhou curiously.

Lu Zhou said calmly, The stronger her opponent, the stronger she becomes. Its the same conversely. In other words, she can balance her enemies and herself, and everyone is equal in front of her. Thats the great law she grasped.

This time, it was Ye Tianxins turn to feel envious. She asked, Doesnt that mean senior sister can fight a divine emperor?

Lu Zhou shook his head. Of course not. The great laws are one of the skills of supreme beings. Among supreme beings, its a compet.i.tion of the laws. It depends on how strong your comprehension is and how powerful your law is. The laws controlled by divine emperors are far stronger than Dao Saints, and their comprehension is also much more profound.

Yu Zhenghai said with a smile, Master has a point. No matter how talented or strong a kid is, he or she would still be defeated with a punch by an adult.

Uh Eldest Senior Brothers explanation is really very direct, Ye Tianxin said.

Zhao Yue was very excited about the law she had comprehended. She said, Then, Ill have to work hard to deepen my comprehension!

Lu Zhou nodded. Thats right. If you comprehend it well, youll be very powerful in the future.

Ill definitely live up to masters expectations! Zhao Yue said excitedly.

Then, Lu Zhou turned to look at Yu Shangrong and asked, Old Second, what about you?

Yu Shangrong said with a smile, The law that I comprehend is a simple one. If Im not mistaken, it should be the law of destruction. The law of destruction contains a little of the law of s.p.a.ce as well.

Lu Zhou said praisingly, The law of destruction isnt bad. Breaking 10,000 laws with a strike. When the power of destruction reaches a certain level, it can ignore all laws.

Yu Zhenghai asked, Master, is there a big difference between the laws?

Lu Zhou said, Naturally, the effects are different, but at the core of it, the laws are the same. It is a huge contradiction, and itll be difficult to prove whos stronger. In a fight, factors like cultivation, state of mind, combat experience, and so on play a part in deciding the winner as well.

If we really have to pick the better law, Id say the law of time is at the top.

Yu Zhenghai said, Isnt strength enough to crush time when it reaches a certain level?

Lu Zhou chuckled.

The four disciples were stunned. It had been a long time since they had seen their master smile. They were deeply moved and could not help but smile as well.

Humans create words and logic; they define the rules. If you say its okay, its okay. If you say its not, its not. However, for now, isnt the essence of what Great Void and the nine domains want to break time? Lu Zhou said.

Yu Zhenghai bowed. Thank you for your teaching, master.

Youll understand these things in the future. Perhaps, in the future, youll make all laws equal, Lu Zhou said.

The quartet nodded. Their hearts were filled with expectations.

Alright. Lets go to Shanyans upper core, Lu Zhou said.

Yu Zhenghai asked happily, Master, youre going to accompany us?

Lu Zhou nodded. Only in this way can there be no mistakes.

Thank you, master!

Under Lu Zhous lead, they flew away. They did not look back at the devastation at the upper core of Xuan Meng Hall. After all, the Great Void would eventually collapse, and its glory would come to an end.

When Lu Zhou and his four disciples arrived at the upper core of Shanyans Pillar of Destruction, the sun was already setting in the west, dyeing half the sky red.

In contrast to the upper core at Xuan Meng Hall, there was no crowd. Only four white-haired elders hovering in four different directions could be seen. Their faces were thin, and their eyes were closed. No one knew how long they had been at the upper core of Shanyans Pillar of Destruction. They were the Four Ancient Lords of Shanyan.

The Four Ancient Lords of Shanyan were said to be born in ancient times. It was said that the four ancient lords and Emperor Yan Feng fought with the Saint slayers and savages in Xidongdu Canyon. They killed millions of fierce beasts there as well. They left corpses in their wake in the canyon. Due to their outstanding contributions to mankind, they enjoyed very high status and prestige.

With the existence of these four people, it made sense the other cultivators did not dare to approach the upper core. Moreover, they also trusted the quartet to protect the upper core.

At this moment, Ancient Lord Dongfang opened his eyes and said tonelessly, Theyre here.

The other three ancient lords opened their eyes as well. What will come will come.

The four ancient lords flashed and appeared in the east. They stood side by side and looked into the distance. They saw five streaks of light like meteors flying in the sky.

Old Lord Dongfang said, Its been a long time since such an expert came here.

The last time was when the Four Supremes of the Sacred Temple were here.

Its said the younger generation is extremely talented. It seems like we, old men, have underestimated young people

No, one of them isnt young

Soon enough, five figures arrived.They hovered 300 feet above the upper core and looked down at the four ancient lords.

It seems like no one came to cause trouble here, Yu Zhenghai said.

Lu Zhou placed his hands on his back. He looked at the four ancient lords for a moment before he finally recognized them. Then, he said using the power of speech, The Four Ancient Lords of Shanyan, how have you been?

Lu Zhous voice was thunderous. It shook the sky and the land.

The power of speech from the Heavenly Writing made the four ancient lords frown as they looked up in surprise.

When Ancient Lord Dongfang recovered from his surprise, he said, You really returned.
