Li Cheng flew to the outside of the palace, his face full of surprise as he surveyed the palace before him.
“The Pen of Life and Death points here!”
“Could it be that Emperor Qing is inside this palace?” Li Cheng murmured.
The palace floating in the endless darkness was too eerie.
“The palace is enveloped by that layer of light membrane, which seals off all auras, making it impossible to sense anything. However, what’s strange is that if it is sealed off, how can the Pen of Life and Death point to it?” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan said.
Li Cheng nodded, “This palace has similar patterns to those on the Ascend to Immortal Platform. I suspect this is a Divine Palace!”
“Shall we go inside? Whether or not it’s a Divine Palace, this palace situated here must be anything but simple,” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan said.
Li Cheng flew to the outside of the light membrane and examined it closely for a moment. Apart from those patterns he had seen before, he didn’t find anything unusual, nor did he find any danger.
“It’s very likely that Emperor Qing was trapped inside the palace, so we should check it out first.”
Li Cheng certainly didn’t want to follow in Emperor Qing’s footsteps.
Seeing no anomalies with the palace, Li Cheng turned to look at the light membrane covering the palace. The membrane was formed by the phosphorescence emitted by the palace, which kept the darkness outside, giving the impression of being impregnable.
After a moment, Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan couldn’t help but ask, “Have you discerned anything?”
Li Cheng shook his head, “I can only tell that this power is being released by the palace, nothing else.”
“Then shall we try to take the palace away directly?” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan suggested.
Li Cheng smiled helplessly, “Already tried. This space is too sturdy. Even with the seven thousand Space Laws I command, I still can’t shake it!”
Li Cheng indeed wanted to take the palace away, but he could only do so along with the space around the palace. Unfortunately, he couldn’t budge it.
“I’ve already checked, it’s the power emanating from the palace that stabilizes the space, which makes me even more certain that this palace is a Divine Palace!” Li Cheng added.
Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan’s eyes gleamed with excitement, “Take it with the DivineWorld!”
“Oh?”
Li Cheng’s eyes also lit up. This was indeed worth a try, but the Fire Mysterious Realm had just merged, and he would have to re-refine it.
And refining the complete Fire Mysterious Realm would take at least several years; Bai Xian couldn’t keep the passage open that long.
“I can only try again after some time…”
Before his words ended, the Pen of Life and Death suddenly trembled as if sensing that Li Cheng was about to leave, and unexpectedly flew out on its own, passing through the membrane and into the palace!
Both Li Cheng and Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan were taken aback. What was happening?
“Was it summoned by something?” Li Cheng asked.
The Pen of Life and Death contained tens of thousands of Life Laws and Laws of Death. It was an extremely ancient Law Immortal Artifact. According to Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan’s conjecture, it was a replication of the legendary Judge Pen.
The Judge Pen had disappeared in the shifts of eras, rumored to possess 129,600 laws of Life and Death, surpassing the category of Law Immortal Artifacts.
Furthermore, as legends go, the Judge Pen, in combination with the Book of Life and Death, could decide the life and death of Immortals.
“Have you seen the name of this palace?” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan suddenly asked.
Li Cheng shook his head. There was no nameplate on the palace; heaven knows what it was called.
Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan’s expression turned serious, “Let’s withdraw, this is beyond our means to explore!”
“Senior, what have you thought of?” Li Cheng became curious.
“Let’s withdraw. I need to sort things out first. In any case, we probably have to give up on any thoughts about this palace,” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan said.
Li Cheng nodded and sped back the way he had come.
Before long, Li Cheng burst from the spatial passage, and Bai Xian also transformed into human form, “Guest Li, how did it go?”
“Next time I enter, I will definitely be able to obtain the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!” Li Cheng declared.
Bai Xian didn’t ask where Li Cheng’s confidence came from, but he believed in him.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Xian said, “That’s good to hear. If the Wordless Heavenly Scripture appears, the charm of the Kunlun Realm’s path will surely rise a notch, which is a great boon for cultivators everywhere!”
Li Cheng raised his eyebrows subtly. There were such benefits?
The “charm of the path” he mentioned was actually the activity level of the laws of heaven and earth. The more active those laws were, the easier cultivation became.
“All ten divine books are born of heaven and earth, so they indeed have such effects. It’s just a pity that I still haven’t sensed the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture within them,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan transmitted his voice.
Li Cheng had also attempted to sense the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture through its operation, and indeed, he had not discovered any trace of it. But as long as he obtained the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, he could use it to sense the scripture.
By then, there would surely be some discovery.
By comparison, what Li Cheng was more concerned about was naturally the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, which few people had ever seen.
After securing a secret chamber, Li Cheng began to repair the Immortal Palace. As long as the palace was repaired, leveraging its flow of time to refine the Fire Mysterious Realm would be much easier.
Once the Fire Mysterious Realm was completely refined, he would naturally be able to use its power to obtain God’s Right Hand, and there might be other Divine Corpses inside as well.
On the other hand, Gu Sanqiu had mobilized the power of the Pill League to search for the Immortal Elixirs recorded in the texts. Within a short month, a large batch of Immortal Elixirs had been delivered from various places.
“It’s much faster than I expected. I thought it would take a few years, but it turns out that after the revival of the Kunlun Realm, Immortal Elixirs are no longer so difficult to find.” Gu Sanqiu looked at the twelve sets of Divine Pill materials in the storage ring and was inwardly delighted.
Only the main ingredient was left, which was a Divine Corpse. Now, he just needed to wait for news from Li Cheng!
But obviously, Gu Sanqiu wasn’t the type to wait patiently. Given his temperament, he naturally took the Immortal Elixirs with him and headed to the Wordless Sect.
In the secret chamber, over the course of a month, Li Cheng had already repaired the Immortal Palace and had spent more than twenty days inside. Those twenty-odd days in the palace were equivalent to over forty years.
The Fire Mysterious Realm had been completely refined by Li Cheng!
At this moment, the Fire Mysterious Realm contained 129,600 Laws of Fire. Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan was right; these were remnants left by the ancestors of the Fire Elf Tribe.
Contained within, apart from God’s Right Hand, was also God’s Left Hand. As for the other parts of the Divine Corpse, their whereabouts were unknown and were not in the Fire Mysterious Realm.
“If I can fully comprehend the Laws of Fire contained in the Fire Mysterious Realm, does that mean I have the chance to become a deity of the Fire series?” Li Cheng said.
Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan nodded, “Based on my speculation, that’s the case. But after understanding the 129,600 laws, there must be some important step. Maybe you’ll find out what it is when the time comes.”
Li Cheng pondered, “The current world is imperfect and simply cannot comprehend the 129,600 laws of any one series. However, with an object left by deities such as the Fire Mysterious Realm, it’s possible.”
“Doesn’t that mean, to become a deity, one has to find objects left by deities?”
Some special objects, like the Fire Mysterious Realm or the legendary Judge Pen and the Book of Life and Death, contain 129,600 laws of a particular series. With their help, there is a chance to become a deity.
But without such treasures, trying to understand this many laws through nature is impossible.
Because the world is imperfect.
“That seems to be the case for now,” Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan nodded and then thought, “Now that you mention it, it reminds me that Tianji Zi said that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect found an object that even the Immortal Court coveted. Could it be another object that contains 129,600 laws of a particular series?”
Li Cheng’s eyebrows twitched. Yes, something that the high echelons of the Immortal Court coveted would likely be related to becoming a deity.
“We’ll find out later when we ask Ancestor Master. For now, while Brother Gu is looking for the Immortal Elixirs, I’ll take the opportunity to comprehend the Rule of Fire.”
It’s been a long time since I’ve settled the rewards for apprenticeship, and now is the time.
But the next second, Gu Sanqiu’s voice echoed outside the secret chamber.
