Chapter 771: Chapter 407: Breakthrough! Has the Senior Brother Arrived?
The passage is quite wide, but also extremely dark, more than ten times higher than the void corridor Li Yuan had experienced before.
“If I wasn't leading you, you would encounter many obstacles trying to pass through this corridor,” the man in black robe said. “Of course, with your strength, passing through the corridor wouldn't be a problem… I won't have to waste my time then.”
After the two flew for a while.
Suddenly a bright light appeared in front of them, revealing a vast land with undulating mountain ranges and a huge, crystal-clear lake with clouds and mist covering the void above the mountains.
At first glance, it looked just like a fairyland.
And at the edge of the lake, there was a common wooden hut. Under a big tree beside the hut, there sat a figure in crimson battle armor with a burly stature.
He had short red hair, a resolute face, and his eyes were tightly closed. Even sitting cross-legged, he was over two meters tall, and his burly body exuded an incredibly mighty and fierce aura.
Whoosh!
The man in the black robe brought Li Yuan down by the lake.
Even before getting close, Li Yuan felt an incredibly terrifying presence, like an ant facing a giant dragon.
Unrivaled!
This was the disparity in the life level, unknowable by how many tens of thousands of times.
“True body?” Li Yuan was astonished in his heart.
“Yes,” nodded the man in black robe, his face rarely solemn: “When the master reached the end of his lifespan, he made all arrangements before his demise and then passed away in meditation here.”
“These lakes and mountain ranges are all recollections of the master's childhood hometown, which, unfortunately, was destroyed… Later, when the master ascended to Heavenly God, he gained the power to create small worlds, and recreated the scenes from his memories here,” the man in black robe lamented. “In death, he just wanted to sit here forever.”

Li Yuan sighed inwardly.
Indeed, he was a man of strong character.
“The master's name is Anchi Heavenly God, once a renowned figure, and a supreme being ranked among the top three in this starry sky,” said the man in the black robe, looking at Li Yuan with pride.
Li Yuan remained calm (clueless).
Anchi Heavenly God?
Never heard of him!
“Nevermind, you're only at Flying Heaven Level, so it's normal that you haven't heard of the master's name. When you become a True God in the future, you will know,” the man in the black robe shook his head helplessly. “Come on, although you're just a registered disciple and haven't received direct guidance from the master, you should still pay your respects.”
“Okay,” Li Yuan nodded slightly.
Withstanding the terrifying might emanating from Anchi Heavenly God's remains, Li Yuan struggled to approach a bit closer, then respectfully performed a grand salute.
“Master,” the man in the black robe stood reverently to the side, solemnly saying, “Another registered disciple has been chosen. This disciple is probably the most outstanding one selected in tens of thousands of years.”
“I hope the master will open the treasure vault,” said the man in the black robe respectfully.
Whoosh~
Whoosh~ An invisible fluctuation flew out from the body of Anchi Heavenly God, and soon the nearby wooden hut slowly opened.
“Thank you, master,” said the man in the black robe. “Xu Yuan, stand up. As a registered disciple, there's no need for you to make a specific Law pledge… Follow me.”
Li Yuan respectfully got up and followed the man in the black robe towards the now open wooden hut.
“Elder, Anchi Master's flesh body?” Li Yuan couldn't help but ask.
Anchi Heavenly God, it felt as if he was just sleeping, nothing at all like being dead.
Logically.
In Li Yuan's imagination, reaching the end of one's lifespan should mean physical decay and rot.
“The master is a Heavenly God, who has penetrated the Law of the Great Dao and has an extremely high level of Space Law Comprehension,” the man in the black robe spoke softly. “His flesh body is so powerful, comparable to a True God Instrument, hardly touched by the passage of time… Even after tens of millions of years, it would not completely decay.”
“Just a few tens of thousands of years have passed, naturally there hasn't been much change.”
“The body is nearly immortal.” The black-robed elder seemed to recall something and sighed, “The death of a Heavenly Divine is not due to decay… but because of the constraints of heaven and earth. When heaven and earth want you dead, you have no choice but to die.”
Li Yuan's pupils shrank.
That statement from the black-robed elder seemed to be laden with deep meaning. Heaven and earth want you dead? Are they the rules of heaven and earth?
“This is something the master once said, you should understand if you can ascend to Heavenly Divine one day,” said the black-robed elder with a smile, having already entered the wooden house.
Li Yuan followed him in as well.
Whoosh~ Stepping into the wooden house, the space seemed to shift, and Li Yuan found himself amidst a vast starry sky, where artifacts and treasures emanating powerful auras were suspended.
“So many treasures.” Li Yuan held his breath; this was much more impressive than the 'Divine Artifact Chamber' of the Seven Star Civilization.
From Li Yuan's perspective, amongst the densely packed treasures, aside from some rare items, even the weakest divine artifacts were likely on the same level as his Dark Star Divine Spear.
Indeed, this was the Legacy Land of a Heavenly Divine.
“This is the treasure vault of the registered disciples,” said the black-robed elder. “First, I'll give you twenty thousand Divine Crystals.”
Whoosh! The black-robed elder waved his hand, and a Storage Treasure landed in front of Li Yuan.
As Li Yuan sensed with his Divine Sense, he saw the interior space of the Storage Magical Treasure was vast, piled up like a small mountain of Divine Crystals.
Twenty thousand Fangshen Crystals!
“If I step into the Demigod realm and cultivate those Nine Layer Star Techniques, with the many resources required, I won't have to worry about running out of Divine Crystals,” thought Li Yuan to himself. The Jue Xing Continent was vast, and as long as he had enough Divine Crystals, gathering treasures should not be difficult.
After Li Yuan put the Storage Treasure away.
“The second treasure, you'll have to choose, one out of three,” said the black-robed elder. “One is the Sealing Tower, which serves multiple purposes including a warship, material defense, sealing, and so on, and can be called the finest of the True God Instruments. Even a True God Limit Expert, once imprisoned within, would have no hope of escaping.”
“Many True Gods cannot afford this treasure.”
The black-robed elder pointed into the distance, and a sphere in the depths of the starry sky suddenly shone brightly, revealing the vague phantom of a majestic tower, with an atmosphere so vast it made one's heart tremble.
“Top grade indeed,” Li Yuan marveled in amazement.
As far as Li Yuan knew, just as with Pseudo-God Artifacts, the cheapest cost one or two Divine Crystals, the expensive ones thousands, and some extremely special ones even tens of thousands of Divine Crystals.
Among True God Instruments, the top-grade ones were so valuable that many True Gods would hesitate to pursue them.
“The second choice is a Soul Secret Treasure. In the hands of a True God, it can defend against the soul attacks of ordinary Heavenly Divines,” continued the black-robed elder. “This is also extremely rare.”
Li Yuan nodded slightly, understanding that the more powerful a Soul Secret Treasure was, the rarer it became.
Such great treasure!
Tempting to the eyes!
Unfortunately, he could only choose one.
“Among the top three treasures, the last is the 'Mirror of Laws,'” said the black-robed elder. “The main mysteries contained in this Mirror of Laws are those of the Space Law, and a small part of the Fire Law Comprehension… The master's enlightenment was in the Fire Law.”
“Fire?” Li Yuan felt slightly disappointed in his heart; this was not the path he excelled in.
But containing the mysteries of Space Law was good enough.
“Have you decided?” The black-robed elder looked at Li Yuan.
“Elder, I would like the Mirror of Laws,” Li Yuan responded promptly.
Realms are the foundation; no matter how strong a divine artifact is, it requires sufficient Law Comprehension to bring out its potential.
“Alright.”
“This Mirror of Laws, I will gift it to you,” said the black-robed elder with a smile. “Will you use it now or keep it for later?”
“Use it now.” Li Yuan declared decisively.
Just now, Gu You had informed him about the Mirror of Laws.
Such treasures of Enlightenment, once used, truly become one's own.
Kept in hand, they only invite covetous glances.
“Alright.”
“Then let's cultivate here.” The black-robed elder said, “Prepare yourself.”
Whoosh!
A streak of light suddenly fell from the starry sky, heading straight for Li Yuan.
Li Yuan couldn't help but look up, only to see a mirror swiftly appearing in his field of vision.
This mirror was incredibly strange; to be precise, it shouldn't be called a mirror at all. It was more like a drop of water, smooth as a mirror, from which Li Yuan felt as though he could sense the vast universe and the earth, instantly losing himself.
“Huh!” Li Yuan's gaze became distant as he sat down cross-legged.
Drip Drop!
The mirror fell silently and touched Li Yuan. Like a liquid, it immediately engulfed him… The Mirror of Laws seemed to take Li Yuan into another space.
“Boom!”
Li Yuan's consciousness was abruptly lifted, and he faintly sensed that he had reached a mysterious realm.
In the dim and vast void, it seemed like nothingness.
A man with fiery red hair and wearing fiery red combat armor stood as if he were the incarnation of flames, with vast and endless aura and eyes that contained terrifying might. His gaze swept across the void, seemingly perceiving Li Yuan's presence, causing Li Yuan's consciousness to shiver uncontrollably.
“Is this Anchi Heavenly God?” Li Yuan's heart trembled.
“I hope you don't let down the path I've taken,” Anchi Heavenly God's lips moved soundlessly, yet conveyed his meaning clearly.
Huh!
Anchi Heavenly God brought his hands together, raising them slightly at head level, as if in worship or as if using his palms as a knife, suddenly slicing forward.
Whoosh!
With this palm strike, might condensed, the entire void began to tremble, and a fine space rift emerged, almost imperceptible to the naked eye… This space rift extended endlessly towards the far reaches of the void along the direction of the palm-knife.
One hundred kilometers!
Three hundred kilometers!
One thousand kilometers!
…This space rift seemed minute, yet contained a terrifying piercing force, extending beyond the limits of Li Yuan's reach.
“Space Cutting.”
“This strike!”
Li Yuan was deeply shaken. He had never imagined that the Space Law could be used in such a way, with might condensed to the ultimate degree. This palm strike gave him the illusion that 'everything in the world could be severed, without harming the innocent.'
Concentration!
The pinnacle of concentration! Sharp to the extreme!
Although the space rift seemed fine, it caused the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth to surge and took a long time to close.
“Rumble~”
Within this fine space rift, massive flames flowed out, filled with vibrant life force, gradually closing the rift…
“Whoosh~” The Mirror of Laws that had seemingly engulfed Li Yuan suddenly dissipated.
Once again, Li Yuan's figure appeared in the void, completely entranced.
“It's uncertain how much this little fellow will gain, hope he doesn't squander the master's painstaking effort.” The black-robed elder muttered under his breath.
… “Whoosh!”
The scene of Anchi Heavenly God slicing through heaven and earth with a palm strike was deeply engraved in Li Yuan's soul, a sensation as instinctive as if born with him, impossible to sever or cut away.
This is the formidable power of the Mirror of Laws.
Unlike those Inheritance Crystal Stone imprints Li Yuan received, which seemed to let him experience it for himself, once consciousness was withdrawn, they would quickly become blurry… After all, those were just spiritual imprints.
The Mirror of Laws, essentially, was part of a Heavenly Divine's soul, leaving a mark far more vivid.
“Slay!”
“Slay!”
“Slay!”
“One strike can slay everything!” Li Yuan felt that all the puzzles he had encountered while delving into the Mysteries of Space and practicing the fourth move 'Shattering the Long Sky' of the Boundary Cloud Spear were solved in this moment, and even more, he was bursting with bright ideas.
Fully immersed in his cultivation.
Unconsciously, Li Yuan used his finger in place of a spear, simulating the action of a Straight Thrust, striking out repeatedly.
The cut and thrust shared common ground.
Both sought unceasing momentum and the sharpness that could pierce all things!
The black-robed elder waited quietly, not interrupting. He knew that the first Comprehension using the Mirror of Laws was especially critical.
One hour.
Two hours.
Three hours.
Ripples spread through the entrance of this Starry Sky.
Following that, a black-armored figure emitting a mighty aura walked in, his presence domineering, somewhat similar to Anchi Heavenly God. The black-armored figure immediately spotted Li Yuan who was immersed in his comprehension in the void.
“He's come?” The black-robed elder saw the black-armored figure.
“Elder Wu, is this the Xu Yuan you've mentioned, who might surpass me in the future?” the black-armored figure spoke softly, looking down at Li Yuan.
He did not disturb Li Yuan's cultivation.
But his gaze was sharp as if it could penetrate everything, carefully observing Li Yuan from every dimension.
At his realm of strength, his Perception Ability was incredible.
After a long time.
“Eight Star Veins? Flying Heaven Eight Star Veins?” A mysterious light flashed in the eyes of the black-armored figure.
But he didn't speak out and instead stood patiently alongside the black-robed elder.
During the repeated processes of thrusting with finger as spear, the aura emanating from Li Yuan grew stronger, the might at his fingertips intensified, and numerous insights surged into his mind.
Suddenly.
“Whoosh!” Another thrust, unbelievably fast, causing even the stable space to ripple slightly.
“Space ripple?” The black-robed elder's eyes shone.
“Flying Heaven Realm, Pseudo-God Level Spear Technique?” The black-armored figure grew even more surprised.
