101: Ninety-nine golden threads of the law

Xiao Zhuo's gaze fell on the panel, and he found that the Law of Thunder, which originally had only ten points of progress, had now reached twenty-three points.

The Primordial Chaos Golden Scripture and the Purgatory Demonic Body had also truly entered the ninth layer.

However, they were still just at the initial stage.

Xiao Zhuo didn't hesitate and directly added points to the Primordial Chaos Golden Scripture.

Now that the Purgatory Demonic Body was bound to the Grand Beginning Glazed Indestructible Body, as Xiao Zhuo comprehended the ninth layer of the Primordial Chaos Golden Scripture, he automatically activated the Glass Indestructible Body form in the White Mist Space.

Mysterious Dao patterns flickered on his skin with a glass-like luster, and faint dark golden demonic patterns occasionally flashed, an ethereal aura naturally flowing from him like morning mist in a mountain stream.

The liquid True Essence in his energy-transformed Meridians had long since transformed into brilliant golden light, surging like a galaxy within his Meridians.

Ever since his Physical Body was completely energy-transformed, Xiao Zhuo no longer needed to consume Medicinal Pills to replenish his Origin.

Now, his Origin was the soul infant that had long merged with his primordial elixir.

Although the Grand Beginning Glazed Indestructible Body was powerful, to him, it was more like a mighty armor.

Even if it was completely damaged, as long as there was enough energy, he could re-condense it at any time, but re-tempering it to its current level would consume a tremendous amount.

However, relatively, all the energy sources for his Cultivation in the White Mist Space now became Attribute Points, and the Attribute Points consumed for Cultivating Body Tempering and energy-type Cultivation Techniques were doubled.

Just like before, when Cultivating the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering Art and the Purgatory Demonic Body, the Heavenly Thunder and Devilish Qi in the White Mist Space were all converted from Attribute Points, and the Attribute Points consumed for adding points to comprehend were double that of normal Earth-Grade and Heaven-Grade Cultivation Techniques.

However, Xiao Zhuo was now rich and no longer cared.

As the True Essence within his body and the Grand Beginning Glazed Indestructible Body continuously strengthened, the Attribute Points on the panel also rapidly depleted.

After the Primordial Chaos Golden Scripture reached its ninth-layer Peak, Xiao Zhuo stopped adding points; he could still continue to comprehend, but it would only be to accumulate Cultivation.

For Xiao Zhuo now, without a doubt, deducing Laws was the fastest way to become stronger.

Xiao Zhuo decisively began to click on Law deduction.

The guiding force of the White Mist Space once again transformed into a constantly evolving Law of Thunder rune.

Xiao Zhuo also began to comprehend the evolution of the Law of Thunder.

Now, the originally silver-white Law of Thunder rune already had twenty-three thin golden threads.

Just like his current Law progress on the panel.

Xiao Zhuo understood that when the golden threads on the Law rune reached one hundred, the Law of Thunder would be completely controlled by him, making him the undisputed strongest in this Yuan Realm.

In the White Mist Space, Xiao Zhuo sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, and the soul infant in his Sea of Consciousness also had its eyes tightly shut; only the Heaven-Observing Divine Eye between his brows tirelessly analyzed the evolution process of the Law of Thunder rune simulated by the profound power.

At the same time, Xiao Zhuo also continuously tried to control the Law rune within his body to perform the same evolution.

However, his progress was far too inferior compared to the profound power; in fact, the profound power only needed a hundred breaths to evolve the Law of Thunder rune from a single golden thread to Perfection, while Xiao Zhuo couldn't even evolve a single golden thread in a year.

This was due to his insufficient Aptitude and Comprehension Ability.

Xiao Zhuo even thought of finding some Heavenly Spiritual Roots that could enhance Aptitude and Comprehension Ability in the future.

However, how easy would that be?

Now, he could only continuously pile up Attribute Points.

When one million Attribute Points were consumed, the golden threads on Xiao Zhuo's Law rune reached thirty-one.

At two million, thirty-nine threads.

At three million, forty-six threads.

At four million, fifty-two threads.

At five million, fifty-seven threads.

Until all Attribute Points were exhausted, the Law of Thunder rune still only reached ninety-nine threads.

The panel progress also stagnated at ninety-nine.

Xiao Zhuo tried for a long time but couldn't comprehend the last thread.

In fact, Xiao Zhuo had already reached ninety-nine progress when two million Attribute Points remained.

The final step was simply too difficult; even though Xiao Zhuo continuously comprehended the evolution process of the profound power, he could never perfectly replicate it.

Ultimately, he could only helplessly withdraw from the White Mist Space.

He was a bit dejected, even with a cheat, he was still so weak.

Was his Comprehension Ability really that poor? Even if someone demonstrated it to him a hundred thousand or a million times, he couldn't even copy it?

Xiao Zhuo lay down on the bed and suddenly remembered that a calamity eye of the Nine Heavens Heavenly Tribulation was trapped in his Sea of Consciousness.

Immediately, his consciousness sank into his Sea of Consciousness, and the moment he broke open the Taishi Space barrier trapping the calamity eye, his soul infant rushed into the calamity eye.

The rich power of the Heavenly Tribulation was greedily devoured by his soul infant.

Strands of powerful Heavenly Tribulation Origin were continuously absorbed and refined by his soul infant.

A certain peculiar energy in the calamity eye was also absorbed into his soul infant's body; Xiao Zhuo felt his Law of Thunder rune seemed to tremble.

The last golden thread on it flickered a few times but ultimately failed to condense.

As the calamity eye was absorbed, this situation occurred a few more times, but even after the calamity eye was completely absorbed by his soul infant, and a new Divine Thunder called "Heaven and Earth Calamity Light" was added to his innate Divine Ability, the last golden thread still failed to condense successfully.

This was like someone who was originally full of hope being disappointed once, then seeing a glimmer of hope again, only for that glimmer of hope to turn into despair once more.

Xiao Zhuo was in exactly this state.

He lay flat on the bed all night; it wasn't until the next day that Xiao Zhuo got up. He hadn't closed his eyes all night, his mind constantly thinking about how to evolve the last golden thread.

However, with the White Mist Space's enhancement, he hadn't comprehended it in a thousand years of contemplation, so it was even more impossible in just one night.

Waving his hand, he dispersed the Taishi Space that enveloped his courtyard. He walked to a giant cypress tree outside, leaned against its rough bark, and looked up at the sky, just catching a glimpse of a streak of light piercing the clear sky and falling towards the square.

The Taiyi Sect's Disciple selection required a month of trials in the Cloud Heaven Realm, and finally, the participating Disciples would be ranked according to the tokens and spiritual fruits obtained during the trials, converted into points.

The Disciples in this trial were all young people under twenty, with the highest Cultivation only at the Peak of Marrow Cleansing.

The time flow in the cloud heaven mirror could be changed; for this trial, Immortal Master Azure Heaven set the time flow in the cloud heaven mirror to ten times.

The trial would end in just three days in the outside world.

Of course, activating time acceleration, even with Immortal Master Azure Heaven's full effort, would be difficult to maintain for too long.

After all, such a Divine Ability already far exceeded the capabilities of the Shattering Realm (Cultivation Class) and was an inherent ability of the cloud heaven mirror, a Sacred Artifact. Even so, Immortal Master Azure Heaven's activation consumed a great deal.

Three days would consume one-tenth of his power; this was not True Essence or mental power, but the power of Law.

Although it could slowly recover after it ended, it still showed the difficulty of activating the Sacred Artifact's inherent Divine Ability.

However, upon seeing that streak of light, Xiao Zhuo also recalled the familiar faces he had seen yesterday.

He stood up, tapped the ground, and also transformed into a streak of light, heading towards the square.

However, as soon as he arrived at the square, he saw many Sect representatives bidding farewell and leaving one after another.

Seeing Xiao Zhuo arrive, a group of people again bid him farewell.

Xiao Zhuo could only nod in acknowledgment one by one, but these people looked at him with somewhat complex expressions.

There was both admiration and a hint of resentment.

That's right! It was resentment!

But none of them dared to say it.

Finally, after everyone had left, the entire square was left with only the Disciples from the Yuyang Sect who had come to assist, Immortal Master Xuan Yun, Immortal Master Azure Heaven, and Xiao Zhuo himself.

"Has something happened?" Xiao Zhuo asked, somewhat puzzled, looking at Immortal Master Azure Heaven and Xuan Yun.

Azure Heaven also had a strange expression but still said, "Don't you know yourself?"

It's about me? Did I slaughter Yuzhou Prefecture or trap and kill the Blood Ancestor?

He had only just returned and hadn't informed anyone of the news yet.

Logically, Human Race powerhouses rarely left Jizhou, so they shouldn't have discovered the situation in Yuzhou Prefecture so quickly.

Finally, Xiao Zhuo shook his head in confusion and smiled, "Senior, please don't keep me in suspense; just tell me!"

Immortal Master Azure Heaven smiled upon seeing Xiao Zhuo's demeanor. He said calmly and placidly, "The Yao-Mo Clan and the Human Race have gone to war again. A million-strong Yao-Mo Clan allied army is stationed outside Demon-Subduing Pass. All Human Race Sects have received calls for aid. As soon as the Three Demon Ancestors of the Yao-Mo Clan appear, I and Prince Hong will rush there immediately."
