Chapter 184: Chapter 183 You Are Unreliable :!
Translator: 549690339
On the seventh floor of the Seven Mystery Tower, Li Cheng was about to begin seclusion to refine and cultivate the Divine World, when Yan Wuxiang came to him.
As the protector of Ling Xi, Ling Xi had ascended, but he could not follow her through the Ascension Passage to the Immortal World.
Therefore, Li Cheng guessed that he must be seeking Sky-reaching Road or Ascend to Immortal Platform.
“Elder Yan, are you here to say goodbye?” Li Cheng asked with a smile.
Yan Wuxiang nodded, “1 need to hurry to the Immortal World, so I can only look for Sky-reaching Road or the Ascend to Immortal Platform. It’s easier to find in the Central Continent, so I plan to go directly there to search.”
“As for the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, those fellows are now firmly bound by the Seven Mystery Tower. Even if you drove them away, they wouldn’t want to leave, so there’s no need for me to intimidate them anymore.”
“Besides, Yan Bei is there.”
Yan Wuxiang’s timing was perfect. Previously, without Yan Wuxiang, Li Cheng worried he wouldn’t be able to intimidate the Golden Immortals and Daluo Golden Immortals of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, but now it was different.
Those people, they didn’t need any intimidation at all.
Eager to cultivate properly within the Seven Mystery Tower, they would rather please Li Cheng than harbor any thoughts of rebellion.
And as for the notion of them trying to seize the Seven Mystery Tower, there was even less reason to worry—Immortal Artifacts governed by Laws were something they simply couldn’t control.
Li Cheng nodded, “Take care, Elder Yan!”
Yan Wuxiang left, using the Cross-domain Teleportation Array to go directly to the edges of the Land of Chaos. Crossing over the Land of Chaos was the Central Continent, which for an Immortal Emperor was a trivial matter.
No sooner had Yan Wuxiang left than Yan Bei arrived.
“I’ve come to see the Cave Master!” Yan Bei said as he clasped his fists. Since submitting to Li Cheng, he had been recovering from his injuries on the seventh floor of the Seven Mystery Tower. Thousands of years had passed, and his wounds had already fully healed, plus he had condensed quite a few Laws with the help of the Seven Mystery Tower.
“Please, sit down, Elder Yan,” Li Cheng said with a smile.
Originally, the two had reached an agreement that Yan Bei would submit but not serve as a servant.
Yan Bei sat down opposite Li Cheng, a smile also appearing on his handsome face, “I haven’t had a chance to thank the Cave Master properly, thank you!”
Li Cheng paused slightly, “There’s no need for such formalities between us, Elder Yan. After all, we’re on the same side now.”
The smile on Yan Bei’s face deepened, “Cave Master’s Cultivation has stepped into the Golden Immortal Realm, do you not plan to go to the Immortal World?”
Normally, Immortals in the Lower World can hardly improve their cultivation.
But Li Cheng was different. With his Realization of Heaven and Earth and understanding of the Laws, there was no difference between cultivating in the Kunlun Realm and the Immortal World.
Li Cheng once thought that the Laws he understood would be of little use after reaching the Immortal World, but he didn’t expect that the Kunlun Realm was no less than the Immortal World, thus the Laws he comprehended were just as effective there.
Given that, why go to the Immortal World?
The only difference was that the Immortal World had more abundance of Immortal Spirit Qi, but the Ancient Ruins within the Kunlun Realm also possessed powerful Immortal Spirit Qi.
Moreover, according to what those Immortal Emperors said, the Kunlun Realm is even more ancient and mysterious than the Immortal World, harboring many secrets.
“For the moment I have no such plans. Does Elder Yan wish to return to the Immortal World?” Li Cheng asked.
Since Yan Bei asked this, he probably wanted to return to the Immortal World.
Yan Bei laughed, “1 do wish to return, but I’ll wait for the Cave Master. When the day comes that you wish to go, 1 will accompany you.”
“The Seven Mystery Tower doesn’t serve any purpose for Elder Yan anymore, does it?”
Li Cheng asked. After all, when he had refined the Seven Mystery Tower he had only comprehended six hundred and twenty-five Laws, so that was the extent he could infuse into it.
A few hundred Laws, and with Yan Bei having contemplated them for thousands of years, these Laws must be of no more use to him.
But now, having comprehended thirty-one thousand five hundred Laws, if he could infuse these into the tower, it would certainly allow Yan Bei to cultivate within for tens of thousands of years, or even longer.
Not waiting for Yan Bei to respond, Li Cheng continued, “It’s time to remodel the Seven Mystery Tower.”
The Seven Mystery Tower was originally refined by him, and modifying it would be a simple task. Indeed, it was not so much a remodeling as it was an infusion of the Laws he now understood into it.
But first, those practicing in the tower need to be asked to leave.
These are minor matters, as I have full control over the Seven Mystery Tower. It’s merely a matter of intention.
“Hm? Why did we suddenly come out?”
“Eh? The Seven Mystery Tower has shrunk, oh? Greetings, Eighteenth Elder!”
As those inside were sent out of the Seven Mystery Tower, they were puzzled, only to see it shrink and fall into Li Cheng’s palm.
Immortal Fire surged in Li Cheng’s palm, and he began refining it anew in front of everyone.
“Li Cheng, why don’t you use your artifact tripod just like my old master? How about I help you?” the voice of the Astonished God Tripod rang out.
Without turning back, Li Cheng replied, “You’re unreliable.”
It had taken so many years to find out where the master was, and without a doubt, when it claimed to know the master’s whereabouts, it must have been bluffing because of pride.
If it hadn’t been for its bluff, maybe I would have found the master already and wouldn’t have let him get caught in the Long River of Time.
The Astonished God Tripod became angry, “Dare say my refining is unreliable?”
“I’m saying you’re unreliable in what you do,” Li Cheng said.
The Astonished God Tripod fell silent.
In Li Cheng’s hands, the Seven Mystery Tower drew increasingly dense Laws from heaven and earth, even making the surrounding nature’s spiritual energy richer.
Countless onlookers were all clicking their tongues in amazement.
“Other sects scour painfully for a Spirit Vein to modestly increase the concentration of their sect’s nature’s spiritual energy, yet our sect has it easy. The Eighteenth Elder merely refining an artifact can cause the concentration to rapidly rise!”
“Indeed, the most fortunate thing in my lifetime is to have joined the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!”
Before long, Li Cheng had successfully inscribed Ten Thousand Five Hundred Laws into the Seven Mystery Tower, a total of thirty-one thousand five hundred.
He also made alterations to the tower along the way, crafting individual secret chambers on each level.
There were tens of thousands of chambers on the first level, thousands on the second, and ever fewer as one ascended the levels.
Previously, each level had only Formations to separate them to avoid disturbing those cultivating inside, but now with the secret chambers, it certainly became much more private.
After the transformation, the Seven Mystery Tower returned to its colossal size of a hundred zhang high and landed back in its original spot.
“It is ready, go on in!”
The crowd bowed to Li Cheng and then rushed eagerly into the Seven Mystery Tower.
“It’s huge! This is much bigger than before, and are those secret chambers?”
Exclamations resounded within the Seven Mystery Tower.
Li Cheng, along with Yan Bei, reached the seventh level, and Li Cheng said, “Now the Seven Mystery Tower should be enough for Elder Yan to continue cultivating for some time, right?”
Yan Bei’s eyes shimmered with surprise, “The activity level of heaven and earth’s Laws inside the tower now exceeds the previous by fiftyfold. Comprehending Laws and condensing them in such an environment has become much easier!”
“With Cave Master here, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect is really blessed, and so am 1!” The surprise in Yan Bei’s eyes faded, replaced by a deep smile.
“Feel free, Elder Yan, I need to enter closed-door cultivation,” Li Cheng said with a smile.
Yan Bei hurriedly made a reverent gesture and chose a secret chamber to enter.
Li Cheng also entered a secret chamber and took out the Divine World, holding it between his palms, he began the refining process.
“Enlightenment!”
As Li Cheng entered into an Enlightenment state, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan floated forth, murmuring, “Finally started refining it, soon we will know the origins of this thing. I’m somewhat anticipating it!”
