Lord Xue Ying

At this moment after Xing Huo Xun Yi recognized that his wife was real, he felt motivated.

Xue Ying continued: “Once the Dao of Mirage reaches the Primal Chaos level, the illusory world that is presented is comparable to the inner world of the Boundary Stone. Once it reaches the Cosmos God level, it can even be used to form illusory cosmos! It is entirely possible for the illusory cosmos to be transformed into a real cosmos. Furthermore, it is possible to improve the Dao of Mirage to an even higher level. What would happen then?”

“An even higher level?” Xing Huo Xun Yi felt puzzled. Cosmos God? Wasn’t that the final realm?

“In my laws and profound mysteries system, the true destination isn’t the Cosmos God. Instead, it is the supreme operating law.” Xue Ying said. This was also what he gradually understood as his realm became deeper.

The goal of the laws and profound mysteries system was about understanding the essence of the world and to grasp the operating laws.

The supreme law was the final goal.

Were cosmos laws supreme? No!

The law of the ‘primitive Ancient Sacred World’ was supreme. The current ‘primal chaos void law’ was supreme too.

The primal chaos void encompassed many cosmos, primal chaos lands, and the five great sacred worlds! The five great sacred worlds might sound good, but in reality, other than the ‘Ancient Sacred World’ being a remnant piece the size of one-hundredth that the ‘primitive Ancient Sacred World’, the other four great sacred worlds were created by Cosmos Gods. The operating laws could never compare with that of the ‘primal chaos void law’.

Becoming a Cosmos God was the end point of many systems, and also the publicly acknowledged final realm.

But in the laws and profound mysteries system, it treated the supreme law–the primal chaos void law as the ultimate goal.

Like the hex cultivation system, it was about researching in the myriad existences in search for their core essence. Like Ancestor Sorcerer, despite reaching his current realm, he was still researching.

“The supreme operating law?” Xing Huo Xun Yi was slightly startled.

“What Cosmos Gods grasped is merely the operating laws of a cosmos. How can they compete with the primal chaos void laws.” Xue Ying said, “These are the supreme laws which encompass everything. If the operating laws for the Dao of Mirage reach the supreme level! One could grasp hold of the entire primal chaos void. By then, everything in the primal chaos void would be controlled by the supreme law controller, and he could even create the entire void.” Xue Ying chuckled, “Allowing the illusion to turn into reality. It isn’t impossible to let your wife live again.”

“Right, right, yes, yes…”

Xing Huo Xun Yi’s eyes were completely bright now.

What kind of realm was that?

The operating laws of the Dao of Mirage could reach the supreme law level! Such a Mirage was actually at the level of the primitive Ancient Sacred World (primal chaos void). Being its master, a thought could form a life. Everything within was absolutely real.

“Actually.”

Xue Ying smiled. He pointed forward, causing an illusory world to emerge ahead. Gold and silver, stone, soil, and other commonly seen materials were condensed within. Closely following that, these materials started turning real from illusion.

“Turning illusion into reality isn’t difficult to me with my current realm.” Xue Ying said, “It’s only that I need to reach a higher realm if I wanted to allow a being to live again. Who knows, I could possibly achieve it without having to reach the supreme law level; instead, reaching the ‘Cosmos God’ level in the Dao of Mirage would suffice.”

“Mn, mn.” Xing Huo Xun Yi nodded. His eyes were emitting light.

He felt his entire body burning. His soul was blazing.

Surging excitement. He felt his fighting spirit shooting to the sky!

In the past, he wanted to suppress the memories of that period which he felt emotionally wounded, stirring himself up again. But those were beautiful memories that etched themselves in his heart.

Now, he knew that his wife was real! No matter how other people see it, at least under the theory by Xue Ying, Xing Huo Xun Yi believed his wife could completely become real!

Furthermore, he had seen hope.

Maybe once the ‘Dao of Mirage’ reached the Cosmos God level, he might possibly transform illusion into reality, allowing his wife to live again!

“Plop!” Xing Huo Xun Yi immediately knelt down: “Many thanks Elder Dong Bo for your guidance. I do hope for Elder to take me as your disciple, imparting to me your Dao of Mirage.”

He understood that just purely relying on ancient cultivation would not allow him to grasp the laws of the illusory realm. Only when he directly understood the Dao of Mirage which targeted its essence would he achieve what he wanted to do. As for the Dao of Mirage… naturally, Xue Ying was the one who reached the highest attainment in this area for the laws and profound mysteries system in history. He was thus the most appropriate person to be his teacher.

“It is still too early for you to become my disciple.” Xue Ying chuckled. He flipped his hand, bringing out a half-translucent book that was glowing in gold before passing it to Xing Huo Xun Yi, “This is a Dao of Mirage absolute art which I created, the “Mirage”. There are currently only three styles within. You should cultivate it first and allow mt to see how high your potential is before I decide whether to take you in as my disciple.”

The experts of the Great void Heaven Temple would usually leave behind their self-created absolute arts in the Myriad Elephant Palace Hall.

Xue Ying had gradually developed this uncomplete absolute art “Mirage” as he cultivated.

The first style of “Mirage”: World Prison. All cultivators at the Void God Origin Birth realm could succeed in grasping it, but it was challenging to do so. This technique contained a third level Star Pagoda strength.

The second style: Mirage Annihilation, with a fourth level Star Pagoda strength. One had to reach the Unity realm before completing it.

The third style: Dark Bubble, fifth level Star Pagoda strength. It was also the move created by the Dark World Master. Xue Ying had merely altered it slightly and simplified it. Xue Ying felt that this move was not bad. As for the second style, the ‘Sky Punishment Edge’, Xue Ying was not too satisfied with it since the enemy could easily dodge this move. Comparatively, the Dark Bubble would descend directly around the enemies, making it such that they could not dodge it.

Going along this line of thought, Xue Ying was thinking of creating a move that had strength at the sixth level where the enemies could not dodge. The ‘Multi-Layered Dark World’ could barely pass as a sixth level technique, but it had a great demand on one’s heart energy which Xue Ying was unsatisfied with.

“Many thanks, elder.” After learning this absolute art, Xing Huo Xun Yi was filled with gratitude.

“When you are cultivating your Dao of Mirage, you must not slack on cultivating your original ancient cultivation.” Xue Ying said, “The power of ancient cultivation is huge, and you can rely on it to understand the laws. They are able to support each other.”

“If I encounter any issues, is it possible for me to come and ask Elder for help?” Xing Huo Xun Yi asked.

“Naturally you can. All the talented cultivators participating in the Star Convention can do so.” Xue Ying said.

Xing Huo Xun Yi felt helpless at that moment.

He understood.

That the moment the convention ended, Xue Ying would have his own matters to do. Finding him for guidance after that was difficult.

“Then if Elder is satisfied with my potential, will Elder be willing to receive me as your disciple?” Xing Huo Xun Yi said. A good teacher would significantly improve his rate of cultivation.

“This Star Convention will be the event when I can determine your potential.” Xue Ying smiled.

Xing Huo Xun Yi was enlightened. He immediately bowed respectfully, “Then junior will first retreat.”

“Go.” Xue Ying nodded.

Xing Huo Xun Yi soon left the place.

Xue Ying watched as this golden-robed young man left. He felt that Xing Huo Xun Yi was burning with fighting spirit. With how severe his emotional wound was, by turning them into fighting spirit, it had thus given birth to such a blazing-hot madness at this moment!

‘If he is not bad, I can still accept him as a disciple.’ Xue Ying chuckled, ‘Who would have thought that this time, I can re-ignite his fighting spirit.’

The experts standing at the higher level of the laws and profound mysteries system also faintly understood that the ‘supreme operating law’ was their final goal.

Xue Ying specialized most in the Dao of Mirage. Naturally, he had pondered over it before. If the Dao of Mirage reached the supreme level, how strong would it be? It should not be too difficult in allowing a being to live again.

Since he had thought of it before, he naturally mentioned this point.

Xing Huo Xun Yi might have met Primal Chaos giants who specialized in the illusory realm before, but they were all ancient cultivators. They would never have this thought which Xue Ying had. Naturally, they would not mention these.

…

Monarch Xing Huo sat by himself in the courtyard. He was currently feeling depressed and was waiting for his son to return.

Nevertheless, he did not harbor too much hope! He was clear that this problem his son had could only be resolved by himself. He had to get over it utterly right from his inner heart, and it was almost impossible for others to help him.

‘He is back.’ Monarch Xing Huo felt his son returning. Turning over, the golden-robed young man entered the courtyard. His father remained seated at where he was earlier in the morning.

‘Mn?’ Monarch Xing Huo was startled.

He felt that things were different.

In the past, Xing Huo Xun Yi might remain his calmness, and it was hard to discern from his outer appearance what he was feeling.

But the eyes of the current Xing Huo Xun Yi were emitting light. It gave off the feeling of sharpness, and a fighting spirit which shot into the sky was something that anyone could feel.

“You…” Monarch Xing Huo was filled with slight disbelief.

“Father, help me find a cultivation ground that allows for time to be accelerated.” Xing Huo Xun Yi stated, “I must make use of all the time I have to cultivate.” He had to make use of the short time he had. He had to improve his strength really quickly and allow Elder Dong Bo to see his potential so that he could be accepted as the elder’s disciple. He had to reach an ultra-high attainment in the Dao of Mirage.

“Cultivation ground?” Monarch Xing Huo’s mouth opened wide.

How long?

How long had it been that his son took the initiative to ask for a cultivation ground that could be accelerated?

“Quick, there isn’t enough time to waste anymore.” Xing Huo Xun Yi urged his father.
