<h4>Chapter 1048: Return</h4>
“Innate Magical Power—Illusion Realm!” Fang Yuan shouted, and the surrounding air within five kilometers shifted, as though something had changed.
Nearby, a wild hare blinked before a python suddenly gobbled it up. A split secondter, the python disappeared, but the wild hare was scared to death!
“If the soul is weak, it’s possible for the psyche to be disrupted in the Illusion Realm and result in death?”
He closed his eyes and sensed his surroundings. “Now, although the Illusion Realm is limited to five kilometers, as my cultivation increases, its range will continue to expand. Within the Illusion Realm, I am in control of reality and illusion!”
Of course, this was not done only for the sake of magical power experimentation.
As he used the magical power, Fang Yuan was also finally able to feel a trace of void fluctuations within the world.
“Although the Illusion Realm is an illusion, this kind of interchange between reality and illusion is the most fundamental representation of the Nomological Laws of Void!”
Fang Yuan closed his eyes andprehended carefully.
After some time, he copsed the Illusion Realm, drew his Nine Profound Spirit Saber, and waved it casually.
The sharp saber light now produced a phantasmal feel.
“So, these are the nomologicalws of the Illusion Realm!”
Atst, he shed with the saber, and the light on the edge twisted. Amazingly, it looked like there were two saber edges simultaneously.
Crack!
A branch fell, and there were two saber marks on it!
“Basic mastery of the Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws—Void Refraction!”
Fang Yuan opened his eyes and had a clear understanding. “Through the refraction of the Illusion Realm, every saber strike has the effect of two strikes!”
This alone doubled the power of his saber techniques.
“This is the ultimate folding technique in the Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws. As for other aspects, there should be the most fundamental... spacepression!”
He looked at the branch before him. With a single thought, the entire branch crumbled into a ball, as though being pressed in from all sides.
“The Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws are indeed vast and profound. Even the most fundamental variations have such incredible power!”
Fang Yuan heaved a long sigh. “My effort was well spent inprehending to basic mastery!”
Though using the Illusion Realm constantly, hisprehension of the Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws continued to deepen.
He knew roughly the path he wanted to take. “The Double de Technique is clearly unfinished. The cultivation that follows will be deepening myprehension of the Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws and unleashing the effects of Triple des or even Quadruple des! The more spatial refractions, the deeper myprehension of the Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws. Eventually, I will reachrge sess and evenpletelyprehend it.”
His level of mastery with the Nomological Laws of Saber was atrge sess, Saber Realm, and there was only the final step left before hepletelyprehended it.
Obviously, the Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws were thousands of times harder toprehend than the Nomological Laws of Saber! Tens of thousands of times!
Fang Yuan returned to the Pantheon Pce and changed into something loose andfortable. “Gold Ingot, do you think... I should return to the Barbarian Ancestral Court?”
“I’ve checked thoroughly. There are no marks of Immortals on Young Master!” Jin Yuan nodded. “If Young Master wishes to obtain a clone technique, there is indeed some hope in the Barbarian Ancestral Court... However, your totem still needs to be concealed.”
The Barbarian Ancestral Court was the Holy Land of the barbarians in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Its status was on par with the big sects outside, and there were even some Immortals. There was a chance that they had a clone technique.
“As for the totem materialization, it’s no big deal... After all, my materialization is the m Dragon!”
Fang Yuan smiled, and the m Dragon appeared behind him. A cloud of fog enveloped it before it returned to its former m materialization appearance.
When it came to the illusions Fang Yuan used, he could even fool Immortals if they did not check carefully.
“Instead, Xu Lie’s master is what worries me most. After all, you’re not a true cultivator, and your spiritual will iscking. Maybe you missed something...” Fang Yuan’s expression turned solemn. “However, since you’ve checked thoroughly, then the possibilities of being discovered are low. The risk is worth taking.”
“What are the possibilities?”
“First, since Xu Lie died in the Pantheon Pce that is isted from the outside world, no image or sound would have leaked. This is certain.” Fang Yuan deduced.
“That’s natural. The Pantheon Pce is a peerless immortal artifact!” Gold Ingot’s voice carried a hint of pride.
“Then thest possibility is that Xu Lie used some mystic technique that attaches to the one who killed him, and the Immortals can detect it within a certain range! We’ll test this out. I’ll sneak outside the Holy Mountain and see if the Immortals have any reactions.”
“If there is a reaction, then I will immediately hide inside the Pantheon Pce, isting me from the world and avoiding detection. Sound good?
“I can repeat the process a few times. If there’s no danger in any of the attempts, then I can saunter back to the Ancestral Court!”
...
Fang Yuan exined his entire n. “What do you think?”
“This way, we can indeed avoid being tracked by life-and-death mystic techniques... What’s left is normal searching... All the cultivators within that region will probably be suspects,” said Jin Yuan.
Fang Yuanughed. “Haha... Do you think I, an early Materialization cultivator with the m totem, would be able to kill a Primordial Core cultivator with the Phoenix totem?”
“Then it’s truly foolproof!” Jin Yuan nodded. “After all, I’m not a true cultivator and can’t offer you much advice regarding cultivation... Moreover, you need to gather the precious materials required for the Hundred Physical Forging Technique yourself as well. It will indeed make things easier relying on a strong force!” Jin Yuan said. “As long as you remember one thing—before the lightning tribtion, the more nomologicalws youprehend, the better. When you transcend the tribtion, you can only rely on your cultivation and not on magic artifacts and treasures!”
“Oh? Why is that?”
This was the experience of Immortal Hong Chen, and Fang Yuan naturally had to find out more.
“When transcending the tribtion, the tribtion will change ording to the individual’s strength!” Jin Yuan seemed scared. “For example, if you hide in the Pantheon Pce, then the power of the lightning tribtion would be able to break the Pantheon Pce apart and then use your life and death as the standard again! The more magic artifacts you carry, the more powerful the lightning tribtion. There would be practically zero chance of survival!
“You must use your cultivation to resist the lightning tribtion! As such, the more nomologicalws youprehend, the better. Additionally, if you canpletelyprehend a few nomologicalws, there will be unexpected surprises! The lightning tribtion is both a danger and an opportunity. During the tribtion, it will present Great Dao inspirations ording to the nomologicalws that you’vepletelyprehended!”
“What? There’s such a good deal?” Fang Yuan’s eyes opened wide.
“That’s what Master said. Of course, this applies only to the nomologicalws that you’vepletelyprehended... However, it appears that the more powerful the nomologicalws youprehend are, the more powerful the lightning tribtion bes as well. It’s a double-edged sword!”
“I see. I’ll bear that in mind!” Fang Yuan said solemnly.
Gold Ingot probably only intended for him to build a strong foundation.
However, he did not know how significant this secret was to Fang Yuan!
Before transcending the tribtion, I must fully master the Illusion Realm’s nomologicalws! I have to master as many other powerful nomologicalws as possible as well!
This world gifting this opportunity for Great Dao inspirations was not something found everywhere. Fang Yuan estimated that it would save him at least tens of thousands of years inprehending the Void Great Dao!
Other Demon Gods would all go crazy if they knew about this.
“Clone mystic technique! Clone mystic technique! I’ll return after cultivating for a while longer!”
Fang Yuan was suddenly determined.
...
A month passed.
Barbarian Pce.
“Finally... I’ve returned!” Fang Yuan eximed while looking at the Holy Mountain on the edge of the Barbarian Pce.
After using many methods to test and confirm that Xu Lie had not left anything that would let the Immortals sense him, he naturally returned to the Barbarian Pce with a saunter.
It had been almost a year since he had taken the mission.
Inside the Barbarian Hall.
The current deacon was no longer Nine Leave, but a stone-faced old man named Wu He.
“To think that someone at the mid Materialization realm could finish the Fey killing mission!”
In disbelief, he looked at the weasel head that Fang Yuan submitted.
Even if Fang Yuan had beenprehending nomologicalws all this time, the Water Moon Heavenly Cave Secret Manual lived up to its name of being able to cultivate to the Immortal level and had advanced his strength slightly.
“I was lucky I didn’t run into Great Fey Pengze!” Fang Yuan replied with a smile.
“Great Fey Pengze. Haha. Pengze is a mess now...” Wu He gloated. “Six elders from Beichen and Great Fey Pengze vanished together at Pengze. Even an Apotheosis Patriarch from the Holy Mountain mobilized!”
“Oh? What happened?” Fang Yuan feigned surprise.
“That’s why you were lucky. Since Great Fey Pengze isn’t around, you would naturally be fine killing one of his Materialization subordinates!”
Wu He must have misunderstood something. Or rather, he did not associate Fang Yuan with the missing Primordial Core experts at all. “Old Patriarch Beichen was from Beichen as well, which was why he was so helpful...”
Fang Yuan could tell from his expression that he was surely not from Beichen.
“All right. ording to the regtions, you’ve finished the Fey killing mission and can now exchange for three magical powers from the Magical Powers Hall and threebat skills from the Combat Skills Hall!” Wu He tossed over a token. “Keep this safe. It won’t be reced if lost.”
“Thank you, Sir!” Fang Yuan bowed slightly. After leaving the Barbarian Hall, he ran into Bei Tangman.
“Fang Yuan! Where were you all this time?” Bei Tangman’s eyes brightened upon seeing Fang Yuan. “Eh? You’ve advanced to mid Materialization already?”
“Didn’t you as well?” Fang Yuan smiled. “I went out on a mission. How are the others?”
“Beichen Yan and ck Fury have broken through to the Materialization realm as well. They also had a fierce fight with the seniors! The strongest senior, Dongmu Cai, has already formed her Primordial Core and went up the Holy Mountain to be one of the core disciples.” There was a hint of envy in Bei Tangman’s voice.
“I see. Looks like that’s all the changes among the disciples.” Fang Yuan sighed intentionally.
“That’s not all. Listen... one of the core disciples of the Holy Mountain died!”
Bei Tangman lowered his voice mysteriously. “It’s the one named Xu Lie. The destiny blood jade he left on the Holy Mountain shattered... He died even though he was an Immortal’s disciple. And since he couldn’t even send back any information, word has it that he died in a secret realm!”
