223: Chapter 223 Law Resources, [Thousand Illusions and Ever-Changing Nebula Water], Space Technology

However, after seeing and hearing things along the way, he realized he had been a bit presumptuous.

Trying to touch upon the methods for condensing the mysteries of Laws and Golden Nature was still too difficult.

His own cultivation time was extremely short, and he possessed too little relevant Daoist knowledge; even if he had such secret techniques, it would take an extremely long time to condense them.

He still had to take it one step at a time, starting by comprehending other relevant Laws.

Usually, all of his resources, aside from those used to accumulate Purple Mansion magic power, were spent on comprehending Daoist knowledge related to the Five Elements and developing numerous divine abilities.

He was still a far cry from obtaining the "Yuanqi Five Immortals Three Talents Cycle Nature" that could lift him into a high-order perspective; it was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.

This Golden Nature was also incomplete, possessing only the status/standing but lacking a vast amount of relevant Daoist knowledge.

It had only been revealed to him as an advance investment for a major contributor.

Therefore, the most urgent task now was to use various resources to increase the speed of comprehending relevant Five Elements Daoist knowledge.

A resource containing Laws was the best object for such comprehension.

Thinking of this, Wang An made up his mind and immediately spoke to the empty starry sky.

"I need a type of Law resource compatible with the Water Dao."

The infinite starlight of the entire starry sky began to shift and fade away, leaving only a small patch of starlight that manifested various shades of blue—light blue, deep blue, and so on.

Seeing this pattern, Wang An understood; it was like filtering for needed items in a massive database, so he continued to propose conditions.

"It must be compatible with Laws related to barriers."

This small patch of starlight almost completely vanished, leaving only two faint points of light. Wang An asked what these two items were.

A piece of information was transmitted into his mind.

"Eight Treasures Barrier-Protecting Umbrella": Obtained from a ruin, suspected to be a magical treasure from a cultivation world view, containing a faint law of protection.

"Heavenly Star Sea-Suppressing Pearl": Obtained from an oceanic ruin, used to suppress the ocean world; it can borrow Heavenly Star Laws to set up barriers and suppress Water Dao power.

After reading this information, Wang An shook his head slightly; it was too far from his expectations.

He retreated to the next best option and changed his instructions.

"I do not need Laws related to barriers, but rather those compatible with life and death, coldness, protection, purification, transformation, and sealing."

Immediately, the treasure vault began to re-filter based on these instructions, and the small patch of starlight vanished again, replaced by a dozen faint rays of light.

Among them, three were most compatible with his ideas.

"Moonlight Life Essence Water": Obtained through exchanging resources with the high-order Elf Race, containing strong Water, life, and vitality Laws, with a quantity of one cubic unit.

"Life-Death Wither-Flourish Wood": Accidentally obtained by an exploration team, it contains Wood Dao Laws and life-death Laws within. It sprouts and withers intermittently; there is no record of exactly what kind of spirit plant or wood it is. Volume: 0.9 cubic units.

"thousand illusions myriad transformations nebula water": Purchased at a civilization trade fair, refined by the Nebula Race, possessing Water, transformation, and star Laws. Quantity: one cubic unit.

Wang An wanted all three of these resources, but alas, his pockets were empty, and he could only choose one.

However, he should be staying at the Bronze Academy for quite some time, so he would look into doing some missions to exchange for the other two later.

Thinking of this, Wang An stated his choice.

"I want this 'thousand illusions myriad transformations nebula water'."

Immediately, the other two rays of starlight dimmed, while only the light representing the "thousand illusions myriad transformations nebula water" shone brightly.

It quickly appeared before the two of them, revealing itself to be a small, bronze-colored water vessel.

Wang An took it, but asked Huayin Jiaoyue, who was to the side, with some confusion.

"Fellow Daoist Huayin, is there really a cubic unit of water in this? Why is it only this bronze water vessel, which isn't even the size of a normal wine pot?"

Huayin Jiaoyue paused for a moment before explaining with a light laugh.

"This is a type of exclusive resource storage vessel we crafted using spatial Laws; it has a cubic unit of space inside."

"This bronze water vessel also comes with extremely strong aura concealment and sealing capabilities, capable of preserving the Law resources inside from dissipating. It counts as a highly precious mid-order level 3 bronze artifact."

"This artifact is only for Fellow Daoist's use within the academy; it must be returned to us after you leave."

Hearing this, Wang An held the bronze water vessel with his magic power and walked out with Huayin Jiaoyue, thinking to himself.

"It seems the Bronze Human Race has already achieved certain results in spatial technology, to the point where they can craft such resource storage vessels."

"That makes sense; they already possess high-order civilization ceremonial artifacts, and high-order adults are already able to touch upon spatial Laws. Relying on their insights and understanding of these, even in such a universe with rigorous physical laws, they have already been able to achieve certain applications."

"However, this single item is equivalent to a mid-order level 3 artifact. Looking at their appearance, its value is even greater than that, and they likely cannot mass-produce it yet. That is why they have had a long-standing bounty for spatial technology, and this is the result of these years."

"The blessed land I have, where I can comprehend and touch spatial Laws in real-time, should be considered an excellent treasure site for Law scenes. I can go check it out later; their knowledge in this area should be helpful for me to take on that bounty."

As the two walked out, the treasure vault door closed, the teleportation array activated, and spatial fluctuations appeared.

With Wang An's frequent contact with the weak space within Qingxu Heaven, the Bronze Human Race's spatial teleportation array, and the spatial Law scenes in the center of the blessed land during this period, his comprehension of spatial Laws had reached an unprecedented realm.

It was just a thin layer of window paper away from being able to condense the prototype of his own spatial Laws.

Seeing the two come out so quickly and noticing the bronze vessel in Wang An's hand, Yu Yaoqing asked with some confusion.

"Master, you just chose this? I didn't see any Law fluctuations."

"This is just a vessel for holding resources; inside are resources of the transformation and star paths, which are quite compatible with Heavenly River Water."

This answer left Yu Yaoqing a bit stunned.

Having just learned about the resources compatible with divine abilities and Dao foundations based on the cultivation technique her master passed to her, she had a rough understanding.

Of course, the resources were a minor issue, but as they were a nascent extraordinary system, without secret techniques for condensing Laws, it would not be simple to create them later.

"Didn't you choose a secret technique? I heard that even if one wants to create a secret technique oneself, it takes an extremely long time."

"Right now, we are still too far from mid-order level 3, so let's first use resources to improve our Daoist knowledge..."

As Wang An and his disciple walked and talked, a mid-order level 3 powerhouse wearing a bronze-colored ghost mask, with a body radiating Laws of illusion and transformation, walked over from outside.

He hadn't seen this person before, but the person's footsteps were extremely hurried, as if they were in a rush to exchange something below the treasure vault.

As the three walked out of the Bronze Hall, Huayin Jiaoyue, who had been silently listening to the master and disciple's conversation, spoke up.

"Fellow Daoist Heavenly River, is there anything else you need help with? I can arrange it for you."
