Chapter 539: Chapter 231: The Space Maze, Eastern Domain in Shock
“Space Law?!” Grandma Yuanling’s face changed, and her expression was one of shock, “That direction, it’s the way of the White Cloud Sect, is it the young lady? No, the young lady has shown no signs of mastering Space Law… Could it be Young Master Lu Yi?!”
Her eyes flickered as she murmured to herself, “Such intense spatial fluctuations… This is no longer just a nascent comprehension of the Space Law, Young Master Lu Yi’s talent is too strong.”
Wang Jianyuan, perched above the Northern Ice Field, looked in Lu Yi’s direction with a hint of confusion on his handsome face. He glanced at the Immortal Sword floating beside him and whispered under his breath, “…Could it be Young Friend Lu Yi?”
A host of Tianming experts speculated one after another, finding the sudden emergence of spatial fluctuations quite astonishing.
Meanwhile, atop Ling Luo Peak, the Ling Luo Peak Master left her bamboo house and soared into the air, gazing at the twisted spatial mirror in the sky with shock written all over her beautiful face, instantly dispelling her drowsiness.
“Space Law?! And judging by the situation, it seems to be a very advanced realm. This rascal, he’s actually mastered such a powerful Space Law?” she wondered incredulously as she looked toward Lu Yi’s Cave Mansion.
Not only the Ling Luo Peak Master, but all cultivators of the White Cloud Sect also noticed the change. After leaving their Cave Mansions and seeing the distorted space mirror, they were all confused and unable to understand why such a thing would happen.
Liu Ningshuang, Jian Ruyu, and Yun Xi also flew out.
Donggong Ming Yue did not appear as she was absorbing and pondering the Heavenly Thunder Essence given to her by Lu Yi.
After meeting with the Ling Luo Peak Master, Liu Ningshuang and the other two quickly learned of the situation and realized that Lu Yi was comprehending Space Law.
Their faces, too, were filled with utter shock.
Lu Yi’s Cave Mansion had already been fortified with an extremely powerful Formation, but even Lu Yi himself had not anticipated that the enhancement of Space Law would be so potent, creating even more commotion than when he had mastered Extreme Immortal Skill.
Previously, when Lu Yi had mastered Extreme Immortal Skill, he had comprehended both the Sword Tao Law and the Power Law to 50%. Even under his control, there had not been much noise leaking out.
Unexpectedly, when comprehending Space Law, even if he controlled it, he couldn’t completely mask the disturbance, and part of it escaped.
Lu Yi naturally noticed the anomaly in the sky as well, but now that he had already begun to comprehend, there was nothing he could do but close his eyes and continue his contemplation.
An enhancement of 30% of Space Law was enough to directly boost Lu Yi’s comprehension of it to 40%.
Various Tao Patterns of space emerged in Lu Yi’s mind, profound and mysterious. Without the detailed information provided by the task panel, Lu Yi would not have been able to understand such patterns directly.
Even so, Lu Yi’s understanding was still extremely slow.
It was not much faster than when he had elevated his Immortal Technique to the Extreme Level.
Thus, Lu Yi continued to delve deeper. As time passed, his comprehension of Space Law deepened, and with it, the spatial mirrors in the sky multiplied and grew more complex, until they enveloped the entire sky above the White Cloud Sect.
Pieces of spatial mirrors reflecting different spaces, akin to a labyrinth within endless space, dazzled and confused the onlooker.
Practitioners across Qingzhou gradually became aware of the situation. Many, driven by curiosity, approached the periphery of the White Cloud Sect, and upon seeing the spatial mirrors in the sky, were utterly amazed.
“What is that? Why has the sky turned into something like a boundless maze?” a Nascent Soul Cultivator asked curiously.
“Who knows? But I heard it might be the relic of an Immortal. After all, it does seem like a Small World, and only an Immortal-level entity could create such a Small World.”
“Hiss… A Small World directly above the White Cloud Sect’s sky?! The luck of the White Cloud Sect is too good, isn’t it?”
“Indeed! The White Cloud Sect has already produced a Lu Yi, and now they could even obtain Immortal relics! It’s too unfair!”
Different Cultivators buzzed with discussion.
During the Fierce Beast Tide, the events of Lu Yi traveling through various regions helping the Great Sects kill powerful Fierce Beasts alongside the Divine Sword Sect’s Old Master and the Long Yin Ancestor had been spreading for the past two years.
Almost every Immortal Sect Holy Land in Tianming owed favors to the trio, and with the other two being respected seniors of the entire Tianming, only Lu Yi belonged to the younger generation.
Having cultivated for three hundred years and being able to work alongside the older generation in helping the Holy Lands and Major Sects of the entire Tianming deal with powerful Fierce Beasts, no one doubted his strength. Moreover, his righteousness had earned the admiration of all cultivators in Tianming.
In fact, many believed that without the three of them, the casualties during the Fierce Beast Tide might have doubled, marking a great calamity for the whole of Tianming.
One could say that the trio were the heroes of Tianming.
Compared to the other two seniors, Lu Yi, as a member of the younger generation, naturally received more attention and was mentioned countless times.
How many Holy Lands envied the White Cloud Sect for having produced a once-in-an-epoch genius like Lu Yi?
And how many proud talents used Lu Yi as a role model, striving to become strong and catch up with Lu Yi’s pace?
How many Heavenly Pride Girls saw him slaying Void Immortal Beasts and still cannot forget him to this day?
The emergence of such an extraordinary individual like Lu Yi in the White Cloud Sect had already made all cultivators in Tianming envious, but now, an Immortal Trace appeared above the White Cloud Sect!
This simply defied the laws of heaven!
The news spread wider and wider, and soon reached the ears of the Holy Lands in the Eastern Domain.
Immortal Traces naturally stirred the hearts of countless cultivators.
Strong figures from Holy Lands and Great Sects flocked to Qingzhou, with the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, the Divine Sword Sect, Taiyi Holy Land, and other Great Sects sending strong representatives, with at least one Tribulation Crossing Ancestor each, along with disciples.
Such a lineup was enough to shake the entire Eastern Domain.
Many Eastern Region Practitioners turned their attention to the event.
However, upon arriving at the White Cloud Sect, figures from the Immortal Sect Holy Lands and Major Sects all behaved very cordially; after all, this was Lu Yi’s sect, and by now Lu Yi had grown into a figure neither Holy Lands nor Great Sects wished to offend.
Moreover, the relationship between the Immortal Sect Holy Lands of the Eastern Domain and Lu Yi himself was not at all bad.
The Heavenly Dragon Holy Land was led by Long Ming Ancestor, with Heavenly Dragon Saint Son in tow, and the Divine Sword Sect was led by Ancestor Fang Tianyao, with Lin Qifeng following; other Immortal Sect Holy Lands also arrived one after another.
At this moment, a group of ancestors looked at the twisted space in the sky with indescribably strange expressions, and for a time, they were all somewhat uncertain and astonished.
As ancestors of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, they had a certain understanding of the Power of Heaven and Earth and also mastered their own domains. Although they hadn’t reached the level of Laws, they had more or less witnessed the Power of Laws. Naturally, they also felt something was different at this moment.
“Is this… the Power of Laws?!” Ancestor Fang Tianyao said with a befuddled face.
“It really is the Power of Laws. The space is distorted, just like an endless Space Maze. This can’t be the Space Law, can it?!” Long Ming Ancestor couldn’t help but curse, his eyes wide and his tongue tied in shock.
The others were equally astounded.
What was known as “Immortal Trace” was not a real Immortal Trace, but a manifestation of the Power of Laws!
This revelation astonished all Cultivators.
Soon after, they showed a look of puzzlement.
“Wait… why would there be a manifestation of the Space Law above the White Cloud Sect?” Deng Zhongxing raised the question, and other Cultivators also looked puzzled.
Heavenly Dragon Saint Son crossed his arms and said matter-of-factly, “Since it’s the manifestation of a Law, it must be Brother Lu comprehending the Space Law.”
Taiyi Saint Son stood with his hands behind his back, clothed in white as snow, and nodded genteelly: “Brother Long is right; it must undoubtedly be Brother Lu.”
Thunder Sound Saintess also nodded, her eyes turned towards the direction of Ling Luo Peak, sparking with admiration: “Apart from Brother Lu, I can’t think of any other possibility.”
The younger generation was alright, but when the older generation of Cultivators heard this, they were left speechless.
“Lu Yi is indeed a prodigy, but are you few treating him like an Immortal?”
“Exactly, the Space Law is one of the few at the forefront of the Three Thousand Great Tao. Even if Young Master Lu Yi is a genius, he is only at the Mahayana Realm. How could he possibly master the Space Law?”
“Not only that, but this manifestation of the Space Law seems to be more than just a recent grasp.”
The Cultivators discussed animatedly, then a sense of shock emerged in their hearts.
“Could it be that there is another hidden powerhouse within the White Cloud Sect?”
Just then, Master Wu Qingfeng, leading a group of White Cloud Sect’s high-level members, came to greet them with a solemn salute, “I wonder what brings all the esteemed seniors to this place?”
Everyone snapped back to reality, then all showed smiles.
“Sect Leader of the White Cloud Sect, no need to panic. We and Young Master Lu Yi are all daoist friends. We have heard that an Immortal Trace has appeared at the White Cloud Sect and have come just to take a look.”
“Indeed, we’re merely here to observe. There’s no need for daoist friends to be anxious.”
Upon hearing this, Master Wu Qingfeng and the others let out a sigh of relief.
After all, with so many powerful individuals present, and a bunch of Tribulation Crossing Ancestors among them, it was difficult for them not to be nervous.
“By the way, where is Young Master Lu Yi? Why don’t I see him?” Long Ming Ancestor asked curiously.
Hearing this, Master Wu Qingfeng had a strange expression on his face as he spoke, “Young Master Lu Yi is in seclusion, and the so-called Immortal Trace in the sky is a phenomenon resulting from his seclusion.”
As the Sect Leader of the White Cloud Sect, Master Wu Qingfeng went to investigate Ling Luo Peak as soon as he saw this anomaly and was then turned away by the Ling Luo Peak Master. He also learned that it was Lu Yi who was in the process of comprehension.
If it were an ordinary Cultivator, he wouldn’t care much, considering the protection of the White Cloud Sect’s Sect Protection Array; but with so many people from the Immortal Sect Holy Lands present, Master Wu Qingfeng had no choice but to stand out and explain.
“What?!”
“It’s really Young Master Lu Yi??”
The ancestors of the various Immortal Sect Holy Lands were stupefied.
In contrast, the younger generation like the Heavenly Dragon Saint Son looked as if they had expected it all along, not at all surprised.
Seeing the astonishment of the strong figures from the Immortal Sect Holy Lands, Master Wu Qingfeng felt somewhat smug inside. Although it wasn’t him personally, Lu Yi was his nephew disciple! How close was their relationship?
He immediately became a lot more confident, smilingly said, “If the esteemed seniors are here to find Young Master Lu Yi, I’m afraid you will have to wait some time. This seclusion of his may take a while.”
The Cultivators of the Immortal Sect Holy Lands looked at each other, and the atmosphere turned somewhat silent for a time.
Then, Long Ming Ancestor’s mouth twitched as he spoke, “Since Young Master Lu Yi is in seclusion, then this old man will not disturb him.”
“We will not disturb him either.”
One by one, the powerhouses from the Immortal Sect Holy Land and the Great Sects all spoke, and afterward, they left separately.
Soon, the news spread out that the so-called Immortal Trace in the sky was actually an anomaly perceived by Lu Yi!
This left all the Cultivators of the Eastern Domain utterly astonished.
Especially when it was disclosed that this might be Lu Yi comprehending the Space Law, the entire Eastern Domain was shaken.
At the Mahayana Realm, and already sensing the Space Law!
How monstrous was this?
