249: Chapter 249 The Pharmacist Returns, Resolving Doubts

Yaoshi hurried back to the Western lands and immediately bowed towards Mount Sumeru, respectfully saying, "Teacher, this Disciple has returned, the mission is complete!"

Upon hearing Yaoshi's call, Zhunti used a strand of Heavenly Dao power to instantly bring Yaoshi back.

Bringing him back to the Eight-Treasure Merit Pond, Zhunti excitedly asked Yaoshi about the situation between the Yao Race and the Dragon Clan: "Yaoshi, how is the situation at the Ten Thousand Mountains? Has the Dragon Clan's Formation been eroded?"

Yaoshi revealed everything and informed Zhunti and Jieyin about being discovered by the Dragon Clan: "Teacher, there is a powerful Restriction outside the Ten Thousand Mountains, so this Disciple could not investigate the interior. The West Sea Dragon Palace's Formation has been successfully eroded, but I was discovered by a patrolling Dragon. Fortunately, this Disciple retreated in time and they did not learn my identity."

Hearing this, a flash of thought crossed Zhunti's eyes: "There is a Restriction set up outside the Ten Thousand Mountains? What kind of Restriction?"

Yaoshi informed the two Teachers of the Law he had sensed: "Two Teachers, it is a Restriction set up with a Law that is somewhat like the Law of Space, and also somewhat like the Law of Time."

Once these words were spoken, Zhunti and Jieyin instantly understood.

The two looked at each other.

"Senior Brother, it should be Shi Yan's Law of Time and Space?"

Jieyin's tone was somewhat gloomy: "It can only be him!"

They should have thought of it earlier; Heavenly Dao Saints are restricted by the Heavenly Dao and cannot openly do things detrimental to the Heavenly Dao.

Coupled with the irreversible conflict between the Human Race and the Yao Race, the changes in the Yao Race could only be the work of Shi Yan.

"The Heavenly Emperor?" Yaoshi, standing to the side and hearing the conversation between the two Teachers, understood what that Law was.

'So the Law that the Heavenly Emperor Cultivates is the Law of Time and Space?'

'However... the Law of Time and Space? What kind of Law is that, and why have I never heard of it?'

When there is a doubt, ask the Teacher.

After Zhunti and Jieyin fell into deep thought, Yaoshi asked: "Two Teachers, what is the Law of Time and Space you just mentioned?"

"There are three thousand Laws, endless and infinite, but as the Law cultivated by the Heavenly Emperor, this Disciple should have heard of it. Yet, after pondering for a long time, I am still unaware. I beg the Teachers to clear my doubts!"

To the side, the Two Sages of the West, who were looking at each other, deducing schemes, and complaining about their dissatisfaction with Shi Yan, immediately stopped their disparagement of Shi Yan upon hearing their beloved Disciple's words.

Zhunti explained to Yaoshi in detail: "The Law of Time and Space is a type of Acquired Law that fuses all the characteristics of the Law of Time and the Law of Space."

"A Fusion Law?"

"That's right, a Fusion Law. This kind of Fusion development is not just comprehending two Laws, but fusing the essence of the two Laws together." Jieyin also spoke up at this time to explain.

"In the current Primordial World, only Shi Yan has comprehended this Law."

After explaining the Fusion Law, Zhunti sighed with emotion.

"Only the Heavenly Emperor? Does the Dao Ancestor not have it either?"

"No."

"What!?" Yaoshi was truly shocked at this moment.

Zhunti spoke too absolutely, asserting that the Dao Ancestor also did not possess the Fusion Law.

In Yaoshi's cognition, the Dao Ancestor was the number one person in the Primordial World; even the seven Heavenly Dao Saints were the Dao Ancestor's Disciples or attendants.

Now, his Teacher, a Named Disciple of the Dao Ancestor, had bluntly stated that the Dao Ancestor had not comprehended the Fusion Law. How could Yaoshi not be shocked?

"Teacher, this is too unbelievable!"

"The Heavenly Emperor is, after all, just an Innate Human Race, right! How could a creation of Nüwa have such Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability?"

Yaoshi's mouth was wide open.

"On this point, your Teacher Jieyin and I also do not understand." Zhunti sighed: "Shi Yan's Comprehension Ability is like that of a Chaos Demon God."

Jieyin nodded in agreement: "That's right, Shi Yan's existence is like the 'Escape One' that the Great Dao bestowed upon the Human Race!"

The Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Derivation is forty-nine, and the one that escapes is the one chance of survival.

Zhunti continued to lament: "This person, Shi Yan, has Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability and infinite potential. The Fusion Law has infinite power; he can use this to attain the Hunyuan Dao, and his potential far exceeds our imagination."

Yaoshi nodded respectfully: "Thank you, Teachers, for clearing my doubts."

Zhunti continued: "Yaoshi, now that your doubts are cleared, you may withdraw."

"As you command, Teacher!"

After speaking, Yaoshi transformed into a stream of light and fled towards his own Daoist temple to continue Cultivating.

After Yaoshi left, Zhunti and Jieyin discussed the matter of the Yao Race.

"Sigh." Zhunti sighed: "Let it be for now. In any case, the Four Tribes of the Heavenly Dao positions in the West will definitely belong to the Yao Race, and Baize and the others are not very important."

Jieyin nodded: "That is true. At this point, whether Baize and the three of them come or not is no longer important."

"It is just hard on Lu Ya, missing three capable generals."

"Yes, yes, it is a loss of dozens of Innate Spirit Treasures..."

As these words were spoken, at the same time in the Ten Thousand Mountains, Baize, Demon God Ji Meng, and Demon God Qin Yuan all felt their Primordial Spirits tremble.

The three of them simultaneously looked at the Spirit Treasures within their Primordial Spirits, somewhat vigilantly saying: 'I always feel like someone is coveting my Spirit Treasure!'

Returning to the West.

Zhunti shook his head and sighed: "As the Crown Prince of the Yao Race, Lu Ya bears a heavy burden. I hope he can stabilize the Western Yao Race and not let any mistakes happen."

Then, at this moment, Jieyin cast his gaze towards the seven treasures tree in Zhunti's hand and said indifferently: "Junior Brother, give a few more Bodhi Seeds to Lu Ya."

"Let him increase his cultivation as soon as possible, so he can unify all living beings in the West!"

Once these words were spoken, Zhunti suddenly hugged the seven treasures tree to his chest.

He looked at Jieyin and shook his head frantically, "No, no!"

"Senior Brother, the number of Western Sect Disciples is growing too fast, and there are not many Bodhi Seeds left! I cannot give any more to Lu Ya!"

The Bodhi Seed is a supreme treasure for enlightenment and also the best welfare benefit in the West.

In these few thousand years, the number of Western Sect Disciples has increased significantly.

Basically, in order to let the new generation of Disciples rapidly increase their cultivation and increase the Luck of the Holy Sect, every thousand years, or even every few hundred years, Zhunti has to take out a Bodhi Seed, radiating endless Dao rhymes of enlightenment, covering the entire Mount Sumeru to allow the Disciples to enter a state of enlightenment.

Looking at his Junior Brother's stingy and miserly appearance, Jieyin said irritably: "Don't think I don't know; you definitely have stock, hurry up and hand it over."

"The matter of Lu Ya concerns the rise of the West; the West must do its utmost to provide him with the best. Junior Brother, you cannot be stingy now!"

"Senior Brother...!"

"No!!!"

"Alright..." Zhunti looked at his Senior Brother's firm attitude and helplessly reached into his portable space, groping around inside until he reached the bottom-most layer of space, only then did he slowly and reluctantly fish out five Bodhi Seeds.

He hesitantly handed the five Bodhi Seeds over, but they were snatched away by Jieyin halfway, "Junior Brother, the Enlightenment Seeds are useless to you anyway; don't keep treating them like treasures. When it's time to use them, use them!"

"Senior Brother... isn't it just because I've been scared by poverty!?"

Looking at his Senior Brother who was scolding him, Zhunti felt a bit lowly.

"But aren't we rich now?"

"Whether it is Spirit Treasures or Spiritual Roots, these are all consumables. When they should be used, they must be used, rather than kept all the time."

"Do you understand!?"

Zhunti nodded, his tone still filled with heartache: "Understood... understood..."

At this moment, Zhunti was as sad as if he had lost a top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure.

Regarding this, Jieyin sighed helplessly.

This Junior Brother of his was truly scared by poverty; he could actually be so stingy even with the hope of the West's rise...
