Chapter 148 - 148 Law Immortal Artifact i
Ning Qianqiu panicked. He had just emerged from seclusion, thinking he had caught a great opportunity, only to encounter a disaster instead!
The entire Pill Sect also panicked. What kind of misfortunes had they brought upon themselves?
In a moment of inattention, their sect disciple had offended two Heavenly Immortals!
This was simply a harbinger of bad luck!
Shentu Feng’s face turned ugly, “Ning Qianqiu, quickly take her away and seek help from the Lower World’s Ancestor Master on the way!”
Shentu Feng knew Feng Wanli was a Lower Realm person from the Taoist Mysterious Sect, so the only way to plead their case was to invite the Pill Sect’s Lower World’s Ancestor Master.
Ning Qianqiu knew the Sect Master was protecting him. Without hesitation, he quickly grabbed the little girl and prepared to leave.
But just at that moment, at the heart of the Zhongnan Yin-Yang Range, a pulse that sent hearts thumping suddenly emerged!
Immediately after, a beam of light shot into the sky, scattering the clouds!
Throughout the sky, dense celestial might spread along the beam of light— despite being thousands of miles away, it still made it hard for people to breathe.
“Is that… Tianyuan City being opened? Does Tianyuan City really possess such powerful celestial might?” Ning Qianqiu said with astonishment, just as he was about to leave.
“It should not be. This is the emergence of an Immortal Artifact!” Shentu Feng said, and then added, “Aren’t you going?”
Although Ning Qianqiu was reluctant to miss the opening of Tianyuan City, he had to rush back to request the assistance of the old ancestor from the Lower World to resolve the dreadful presence his disciple had provoked—there was no time to delay!
Just then, Qin Wuhun slowly opened his eyes, filled with joy, “In two days, I grasped twenty lightening system Laws, and with the foundation of Laws, comprehension will be faster in the future. In three years’ time… I will be a disciple that the sect focuses on!”
Although 129,600 paths of Laws are required to condense into a single Law, it is rare to comprehend Laws at the Heavenly Immortal Realm. After all, not everyone is a monstrous talent like Li Cheng and his disciple.
To comprehend some Laws at this realm is enough to become a key focus of the sect.
In his joy, Feng Wanli’s voice rang beside him, “Hehe, it seems that your Treasure Bowl was quite effective!”
Qin Wuhun looked doubtfully at the recently appeared Feng Wanli, then at the Treasure Bowl, and was suddenly taken aback!
Good heavens, treating a Heavenly Immortal like a beggar?
After composing himself, Qin Wuhun picked up the Spirit Stones from the bowl and smiled, “The kindness of others is deserving of your mockery?”
Feng Wanli shook his head, uninterested. He had come to watch a spectacle, but Qin Wuhun did not take it seriously. Well, let it be!
Sensing the residual aura on the Spirit Stones, Qin Wuhun shifted his gaze to the little girl by Ning Qianqiu’s side a few hundred meters away, “Little girl, thank you!”
Ning Qianqiu, who was about to leave, was startled. Was this… really a gesture of gratitude?
Was it not the calm before the storm?
“As the saying goes, one good turn deserves another. Grandpa will also give you a gift!” Qin Wuhun said, casually writing the character ‘Protect’.
The ‘Protect’ character hovered in front of Qin Wuhun. It appeared no larger than a meter, yet it exuded an astonishing might, its presence as looming and substantial as a mountain.
With a wave of his hand, the ‘Protect’ character flew in front of the little girl and entered her left arm.
The little girl looked curiously at the scene, not understanding what this technique was.
Shentu Feng and the others were pleasantly surprised, and they all bowed towards Qin Wuhun.
Qin Wuhun nodded slightly, then he and Feng Wanli flew towards that beam of light together.
“Worthy of being a Confucian Immortal, broad-minded as the sea, truly admirable!” Shentu Feng finally relaxed, took a deep breath, and exclaimed with emotion.
Ning Qianqiu also let out a long sigh of relief, “Sect Master, this girl has turned misfortune into a blessing!”
“Don’t talk nonsense, what misfortune? Take good care of this disciple of yours in the future. She received the protection of the Confucian Immortal, so I think becoming an immortal shouldn’t be a problem,” Shentu Feng said.
Ning Qianqiu couldn’t help but laugh. What she had thought was terrible had turned out to be a blessing, how wonderful!
“Back to the main topic, Tianyuan City has not yet opened, but an Immortal Artifact has already appeared first. Shouldn’t we also take a look?” Ning Qianqiu said with a light cough.
Li Cheng stood within the beam of light, nodding in satisfaction as he looked at the seven-story Treasure Pagoda floating in front of him.
“Although this Immortal Tower cannot be compared to the Void Snow Sword refined by the Funeral Refining Heaven Technique, it excels in the higher quality of materials used. The finished product is quite impressive, and it also contains quite a few laws. How did you manage to do that?” The voice of Immortal Emperor Tianyuan rang out, his figure appearing beside Li Cheng.
Li Cheng glanced at Immortal Emperor Tianyuan, “What have you been up to lately? I haven’t heard from you at all. I thought you were in seclusion or something, so I didn’t dare to disturb you.”
“I was in seclusion, wasn’t I? Didn’t I leave instructions with Zhuo Canghai? Didn’t he tell you?” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said.
“My lord, it’s not that I didn’t say, it’s that Li Cheng didn’t ask me!” Zhuo Canghai promptly responded.
Li Cheng shook his head slightly, “What a pity, the other day I encountered the Evil Master of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, and also came across an Immortal Sense left by Grand Venerable Bai Jie.”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan pondered for a moment but did not ask further, only smiling and saying, “How effective is this Immortal Tower?”
The Immortal Tower shrank to the size of a palm and fell into Li Cheng’s hand. Li Cheng said, “It’s not as powerful as I had envisaged. The first layer of the seven-layer tower has a time flow speed exactly three hundred and sixty-five times faster; one year inside, one day outside.”
“For each layer above, there’s about an additional year’s speed. The seventh layer is seven years inside for one day outside.”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan was astonished, “The seventh layer is equivalent to more than two thousand five hundred times the speed of time. What were you expecting then?”
Li Cheng pondered, “I have inscribed two hundred paths of the Time Law within it, and there was such a big piece of Universe Mystery Stone. I envisaged that the seventh layer should at least reach ten thousand fold, but it only has a little over two thousand five hundred fold.”
“Only? Hehe, you sure have an interesting way of putting it!” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said with a grin that was not quite a smile.
The words “truly marvelous” he spoke with particular emphasis!
Of course, Li Cheng caught the implication in Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s tone, which was that he thought Li Cheng might be showing off.
But he really wasn’t, Li Cheng was just speaking the frank truth.
Swish!
Qin Wuhun and Feng Wanli hurried over, their eyes lighting up when they saw the Immortal Tower in Li Cheng’s hand.
Both of them crowded around and examined the Immortal Tower closely, their expressions gradually turning solemn.
“This Immortal Tower, just like the Treasure Bowl, makes it easier to sense the Laws when you’re near it. If we go inside, wouldn’t the effect be even better?” Qin Wuhun said.
“Moreover, it contains a rich life essence. Inside, it’s probably comparable to taking high-level Healing Pills, and the speed of recovering from injuries would be very fast!” Feng Wanli added.
Li Cheng nodded. Indeed, having incorporated the broken bowl in its refinement, this Immortal Tower also contained six hundred and twenty-five pathways of Law, and they were permanent. As long as the Immortal Tower was not destroyed, those Laws would not dissipate.
In the strictest sense, this was already a Law Immortal Artifact!
Cultivating inside it, you would be enveloped by the essence of the Laws at all times. In such a condition, comprehending them would undoubtedly allow for easy communication with Heaven and Earth, and quick understanding of various Laws.
Li Cheng activated the Immortal Tower. The Space Law within it flowed and formed a Formation that enveloped everyone before he said, “This tower can be used for now. Later, when my cultivation is higher, I’ll find some more Universe Mystery Stone and refine a new one.”
“Making do with it? Master Li, you are too modest! It would be hard to find many such Immortal Artifacts even in the Immortal Realm!” Qin Wuhun said with a light cough.
He was truly startled by Li Cheng’s words. Such a treasure, and just ‘making do’?
Feng Wanli took over the conversation, “This Immortal Tower doesn’t have a name yet, right? How about calling it Chengta Tower?”
