Chapter 388: Chapter 315: 7300 Moments of Enlightenment!_2

Li Cheng nodded, took out a storage ring and handed it over to the Five Elements Great Emperor, which contained enough Divine Pills for her use.

“Li Cheng, your Divine Beast little brother is too arrogant and reckless, come and help quickly!”

At that moment, the voice of Ao Jiugai came through.

Li Cheng instantly appeared beside him and, looking intently, he saw the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle drilling into the shell of the Chaos Divine Turtle, apparently trying to merge the shell into its own body.

However, it clearly overestimated its own abilities and was now being so pressured by the Space Law within the shell that it couldn’t move at all.

With a casual wave of his hand, Li Cheng rescued the Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle, and spoke disapprovingly, “Don’t you know that you must take it one step at a time?”

The Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle caught its breath and said, “I’ve always been jumping through my journey… Boss, I can merge with this shell, it’s just that I didn’t know there was a small world hidden inside one piece of the plastron, a miscalculation indeed!”

“You should have first comprehended the Space Law within the shell. Don’t try to bite off more than you can chew. Look at the Mole; isn’t it just focusing on improving its cultivation?”

The Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle shrank its neck and replied, “Got it, boss. Just you wait and see, once I comprehend more of the Space Law, peel off that small world, I’ll be able to successfully merge with this shell!”

“Suit yourself!”

Li Cheng shook his head and left the Blunt Empty Residence, heading toward the first Mysterious Heavy House.

The Blunt Empty Venerable mainly cultivated the Earth Rules, but he also controlled a great deal of Space and Time Laws. Li Cheng had long been curious about the Mysterious Heavy Houses he personally crafted.

There were six Mysterious Heavy Houses in total, each marked with a number on its door, though there were no explanations.

Li Cheng entered the first Mysterious Heavy House and immediately, an immense force enveloped him, rendering him immobile!

This was a square bathed in an earthy yellow halo, a hundred miles in size, resembling the vast yellow heavens and earth.

“The Earth Rules contained here are about five or six hundred million. The Blunt Empty Venerable has indeed comprehended such a vast amount of Earth Rules!” Li Cheng was inwardly shocked.

Beyond the Earth Rules, there were also several hundred million orders of Space and Time Laws, and the divine energy here was exceedingly dense, truly a Holy Lands for cultivation.

The Blunt Empty Venerable had previously said that each Mysterious Heavy House had different gravity, and Li Cheng wondered how much stronger the second one would be.

Although curious, Li Cheng also knew that now wasn’t the time to try the second one. After all, he could barely move in the first Mysterious Heavy House. If he entered the second and were to be crushed to pieces, that would be a tragic tale.

“I’ll practice here for a while until I can move normally, and then go to the next house!”

Having made up his mind, Li Cheng sat down cross-legged and slowly adapted to the gravity of the place.

He had intended to run the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, but in this incredibly heavy environment, Li Cheng was surprised to find that even running the Cultivation Technique was extremely difficult and very slow.

At this speed, rotating the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture once would definitely take tens of thousands of times longer than usual!

“Tsk tsk, truly worthy of being one of the ten great oddities. This Mysterious Heavy House created by the Blunt Empty Senior greatly enhances the operation of the physical body and Divine Power. With prolonged cultivation here, the fighting power is bound to skyrocket.”

Li Cheng had tried cultivating in such environments before, as Blunt Empty City was just like this.

After adapting to the gravity in Blunt Empty City, Li Cheng’s fighting power had soared dramatically, dealing with the Dead Spirits of the same Realm or even crossing Realms with ease.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving in the Divine Realm, the Blunt Empty Venerable had created such an environment again.

Of course, for Li Cheng now, the three types of Laws here were the main focus.

After getting a bit accustomed to it, Li Cheng immediately began to engage in Enlightenment!

After one session of Enlightenment, Li Cheng joyfully discovered that he had gained more than eighty thousand orders of Earth Rules, which was even faster than the Chaos Divine Turtle’s learning from within its shell!

“Continue!”

Twenty years passed in this period of seclusion.

Seven thousand three hundred sessions of Enlightenment!

Li Cheng had now reached the fourth Mysterious Heavy House. The first four houses shared the same Laws, with only the gravity increasing exponentially.

In twenty years, Li Cheng’s cultivation had risen from the early stages of Divine Monarch to Complete Divine Monarch, an unimaginably swift progress.

Of course, that wasn’t the main point. The key was the Laws!

Now, his Time Law had increased from fifty-three million to two hundred fifty-three million, and his Space Law from ninety-nine million to three hundred million!

The most substantial increase was in the Earth Rules, rising from over twenty thousand to two hundred ten million.

In just twenty years, a total of over six hundred million Laws had been improved.

If it weren’t for that feeling of constraint emerging again, Li Cheng would have liked to continue delving in Enlightenment.

It seemed that upon reaching Complete Divine Monarch, a single Law could only be enhanced to three hundred million paths.

[Current remaining Enlightenment attempts: 2970 times.]

Glancing at the remaining number of Enlightenments, Li Cheng didn’t continue his seclusion in the Mysterious Heavy House and stood up to leave.

In these past twenty years, Blunt Empty Venerable hadn’t returned, suggesting that the situation was likely not optimistic.

“Master Li! When did you get here?”

The moment he stepped out of the Mysterious Heavy House, the surprised voice of Ninety Thousand Miles reached his ears.

When Li Cheng had entered the Mysterious Heavy House for seclusion, Ninety Thousand Miles was also in seclusion, completely unaware that Li Cheng had already arrived.

“Twenty years have passed, what have you been practicing?” Li Cheng asked curiously, looking at Ninety Thousand Miles.

He had just seen Ninety Thousand Miles continuously thrusting his longsword towards the lake, yet there was no disturbance on the surface of the lake where the sword tip pointed.

Ninety Thousand Miles stopped in front of Li Cheng, and with an awkward smile, he said, “I’ve grasped some of the Earth Rules and took the opportunity to condense the Mysterious Heavy Domain, so I whimsically attempted to integrate gravity into my swordsmanship.”

Li Cheng subtly raised an eyebrow, finding the idea commendable. A sword thrust carrying countless times the force of gravity could both suppress the opponent and cause greater damage.

“Master Li doesn’t think it will work?” Seeing Li Cheng’s silence, Ninety Thousand Miles followed up with a sense of resignation, “I’m just giving it a try on a whim, but my comprehension isn’t that good, perhaps I’ve taken the wrong path!”

“No, I think the idea is very feasible. If successful, your swordsmanship’s prowess could increase several times over!” Li Cheng said with a smile.

“Oh?” Ninety Thousand Miles’s eyes lit up.

Li Cheng nodded and continued, “Why don’t you try using a heavier sword? It might be easier to succeed.”

Ninety Thousand Miles pondered, and after a while, his eyes showed excitement, “That’s right! A heavy sword can bear it!”

“Any news on the Evil Demons lately?” Li Cheng asked.

Mentioning Evil Demons, Ninety Thousand Miles sighed, “Both sides have suffered heavy losses. At the moment, they’re at a stalemate, unable to gain an advantage over the other. It’s said they’ve reached an impasse.”

The Human Tribe, the Dead Spirits, and the Demon Race had been warring for countless eons, always maintaining a balance.

Because they were evenly matched, each war would last a very long time.

“By the way, last month a Demon infiltrated Seventy-Two Earth Sha City. Fortunately, someone discovered it in time, avoiding major turmoil,” Ninety Thousand Miles added.

Li Cheng’s brows furrowed, “If such an incident can happen once, then it could naturally happen a second time. Let’s hope there won’t be a large-scale attack, or countless lives could be lost.”

“We can be somewhat reassured on that front, as Mansion Venerable has already ordered strict guard in all cities, making it difficult for Evil Demons to infiltrate,” Ninety Thousand Miles reassured.

Listening to Ninety Thousand Miles, Li Cheng felt a bit helpless. It was a disaster that had arisen partly because of him, yet with his low cultivation, he could offer little help besides alchemy.

Those battles were led by Divine Venerables, with participation from Divine Emperors and Divine Kings. As a Complete Divine Monarch, he would not be able to make much of an impact.

He could only hope that the Evil Demons would quickly retreat.

“There’s another matter, Master Li. Seven days ago someone from the Pill Hall came by and said that if you came out of seclusion to go there as soon as possible, but they didn’t specify what it was about.”

Li Cheng nodded, calculating the time; it was likely that the more than fifty million Divine Pills had been almost used up.

“Laojiu, do you know the way? Take me there,” Li Cheng said.

Ninety Thousand Miles nodded, “I know it. The Pill Hall is in Heaven Puppet City. Please follow me, Master Li.”

Not far from the lake, there was a Transmission Array that could send one to any of the Heaven Puppet and Earth Sha cities.

Soon, under Ninety Thousand Miles’s guidance, Li Cheng arrived in front of the Pill Hall.

The Pill Hall, located in the central area of Heaven Puppet City, the seven-story Pill Master Tower stood as the symbol of the Pill Hall, easily recognizable.

It seemed that knowing Li Cheng would come, Dan Chi had been waiting at the doorway, and upon seeing Li Cheng, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“Dan Chi Senior!” Li Cheng approached, offering a fist-and-palm salute.

“Supreme Li is too courteous. Just call me by my name, please don’t add ‘Senior’; I can’t bear it!” Dan Chi hastily returned the bow.

In the eyes of everyone at the Pill Hall, Li Cheng was the Supreme Alchemy Dao, a senior in the field of alchemy.

“Is there a need for alchemy?” Li Cheng went straight to the point.

Dan Chi, with a secretive look, glanced around before transmitting his voice, “Supreme Li, please follow me!”
