Chapter 704
Spatial Rules, Introduction!
"Your Majesty, this treasure can be used for surprise attacks. Using it during the World Lord's Hall competition will surely catch people off guard."
The book explains.
Zhang Lingshan said, "Since it is a treasure for sneak attacks, it can only be used once. It will no longer work if others see it."
The artifact said, "Great Emperor, you are unaware of this. Even if someone sees the Heavenly Seal this time, they cannot defend against it. Although I am only a replica, not even a fraction of the original, I have absorbed its characteristics. Therefore, once this treasure is activated, it can travel through the air and strike the opponent's head directly."
"Oh?"
Zhang Lingshan said, "Then make your move against me and let me see what mysteries lie within."
Qi Shuyan himself had never officially used this treasure before, but upon hearing Zhang Lingshan's words, he also had the idea of testing it out, so he immediately said, "Then I'll have to offend you."
That's all.
He immediately activated the Heaven-Turning Seal.
The Heaven-Turning Seal shot out with lightning speed, tearing through the sky and crashing directly onto Zhang Lingshan's head.
Zhang Lingshan was taken aback, discovering that this treasure had transcended space, making it truly impossible to defend against. Before anyone could react, his head was struck squarely.
Fortunately, Zhang Lingshan possessed an extraordinary physical body, and although he was hit, he was unharmed.
Qi Shuyan was so shocked that he even forgot to retract the Fantian Seal.
Zhang Lingshan grabbed the Heaven-Turning Seal and said, "This treasure actually contains spatial rules. Does the Palace Master of the Artifacts also have some understanding of spatial rules?"
Qi Shu said, "To be honest, Your Majesty, I don't have a deep understanding of spatial rules. It was only when I was studying ancient books and forging this treasure that, for some reason, I naturally incorporated spatial rules into it."
Zhang Lingshan said, "I am very interested in the spatial rules of this treasure, so I will accept it. But I won't take it for free. I have an oil lamp here with defensive properties, which I will give to you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Qi Shuyan did not refuse, took the oil lamp, examined it carefully for a while, and said, "It is actually a guardian lamp. This lamp has the effect of protecting the soul, and it is very effective whether in cultivation or when encountering a spiritual attack. The Great Emperor actually gave me this treasure?"
Zhang Lingshan said, "This item is useless to me, so you should keep it."
"Yes."
Qi Shuyan nodded, then said, "Then, Your Majesty, what should we do now? Is there anything I can do?"
Zhang Lingshan said, "I heard from San Kuangsheng that the City Lord of Zixuan City is trapped somewhere, probably in the Xuanjiang Domain. But I searched around and couldn't find any hidden place. You are an old man in the Xuanjiang Domain and know it very well. Why don't you help me think of a hidden place that even immortals and gods cannot detect?"
Qi Shuyan pondered for a long time before saying, "If even the Great Emperor cannot find it with his divine sense, then it can only mean that the City Lord of Zixuan is trapped in a spatial interlayer. This kind of spatial interlayer is formed when a domain grows and expands, and some deviations occur occasionally."
The domain will grow and expand; this was something Zhang Lingshan had known for a long time.
Not to mention the growth of the domain, the space of the Nine Provinces Continent will also naturally expand outwards. This is why he encourages the people of the Nine Provinces Continent to explore the surrounding areas.
After all, the mortal realm is in the process of growth, so this change is reasonable.
As for the discrepancies in the descriptions in the artifact books, it is because when the domain space expands, it may encounter disturbances from the inter-domain storm zone, or some other special reason, thus forming a space sandwiched between the inter-domain storm zone and the Xuanjiang Domain.
This is the spatial interlayer that Qi Shuyan mentioned.
Finding this spatial interlayer is by no means an easy task.
Moreover, even if it is found, it is not necessarily possible to open this interlayer of space.
'Are we just going to let that brat, the City Lord of Zixuan, hide inside?'
Zhang Lingshan pondered.
Leaving this guy in the spatial interlayer is definitely a potential problem.
Because the formation of spatial interlayers is very special, they must be full of spatial rules.
If the Lord of Zixuan City is lucky enough to comprehend the rules of space, his strength will surely increase greatly.
At that time, Zhang Lingshan was already in the Immortal Realm, and no one in the entire Xuanjiang Domain could rival the Lord of Zixuan City.
After all, that's the rule of space, a top-tier rule that's even superior to the rule of the five elements.
Having grasped this rule, let alone anyone in the Xuanjiang Domain who is no match for the City Lord of Zixuan, even the Realm Lord Yi Chen might not be able to defeat him.
and so.
We must eliminate the Purple Mystic City Lord before leaving the Immortal Realm to remove this hidden danger.
Thinking of this, Zhang Lingshan immediately took out the Fantian Seal and asked Qi Shuyan to bring out the various books he used as references for forging the Fantian Seal. Then, using his ability to deduce all laws, he quickly began to deduce the rules of space.
Because he was suppressed by the spatial rules of the Nine Provinces Continent when he was there, and he entered and exited the Fog Realm many times, he had some understanding of the spatial rules.
Although the spatial rules of the Nine Provinces Continent existed at that time, by analogy, one naturally gained some understanding and insight into the spatial rules of the entire Great World.
In addition, he also has a pouch space, which is a special space in itself, and it helps him to comprehend the rules of space.
In addition, he possesses a body of profound metal, enabling him to perform the Star Shifting and Battle Changing Technique, which also utilizes spatial rules.
After that, he thoroughly understood He Zhi Qiu's teleportation array, and mastered the spatial rules within it.
Now, holding the Fantian Seal, a magical artifact containing spatial rules, although it is only a replica of an ancient artifact, less than one-hundred-millionth of its original, the spatial rules it contains are extremely ingenious, making it perfect for Zhang Lingshan to study.
in this way.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Holding the Heaven-Turning Seal, Zhang Lingshan did something that caused the treasure to suddenly shrink from the size of his palm to the size of his fingernail.
'Hey, it worked!'
Zhang Lingshan was overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, this enlightenment went so smoothly without any surprises. Was it because I was already on the verge of comprehending the rules of space, or because of the enhancement of my divine consciousness, or the special effects brought about by the Xuan Tian True Scripture?
Regardless of the type, it signifies that one's strength has indeed undergone a tremendous transformation.
[Space Rules: Beginner, 0/1000]
'As expected of a top-tier, world-creating rule; even beginners need 1000 points. The 4000+ energy points I painstakingly accumulated are simply not enough.'
Zhang Lingshan sighed inwardly.
Then, add some points.
哗。
In an instant, he felt that the world around him had changed, as if he could see that space had been divided into layers.
And each layer is advancing on the other.
Zhang Lingshan suddenly understood what spatial interlayers were.
It seems that an accident occurred when the space was being advanced layer by layer, causing one of the layers to get stuck, thus forming a mezzanine.
Now that this point has been grasped and the distinct spatial layers can be seen, it is only natural to find the spatial interlayer that trapped the Lord of Zixuan City.
Therefore, Zhang Lingshan immediately began to take action, searching carefully throughout the entire Xuanjiang Domain, leaving no corner unchecked.
Before he could find the spatial interlayer of the Purple Profound City Lord, he suddenly detected a familiar face with his divine sense.
Whoosh.
Zhang Lingshan landed smoothly and came to stand in front of the other party, smiling and saying, "Great Emperor of the Underworld, it's been a long time."
It turned out that this familiar face was none other than the Netherworld Emperor Chen Youming, who had helped Zhang Lingshan open the Long Mansion!
When Chen Youming was in the Nine Provinces Continent, he used a certain secret method to open the Netherworld, which caused him to age extremely rapidly, making him look like a very old man.
But now, he looks like a middle-aged man, with a cautious expression on his face, as if he is hiding from something.
Chen Youming was startled to see Zhang Lingshan suddenly appear. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a whistling sound coming from afar and immediately shouted, "Be careful!"
"hehe."
Zhang Lingshan smiled faintly, and the whistling arrow instantly vanished into nothingness. Then, with a casual grab of his right hand, he pulled two figures over and threw them in front of Chen Youming, saying, "So you were avoiding these two? I remember you had several disciples with you, like that Youying who brought me there. Why aren't they with you?"
Chen Youming was greatly shocked when he saw Zhang Lingshan's move.
You should know that either of those two could kill Chen Youming as easily as killing a chicken. If it weren't for some hidden secret techniques he had, he would probably have been killed long ago.
As a result, this powerful figure was casually grabbed by Zhang Lingshan and thrown to the ground, his fate unknown.
Is Zhang Lingshan's strength really that terrifying?
Although Chen Youming was a famous figure in the Nine Provinces Continent, he was just a nobody at the bottom of the social hierarchy in the Xuanjiang Region.
In addition, he hid very well, so the Loose Cultivator Alliance could not find him, and therefore he could not access information from the higher-ups, so he naturally did not know Zhang Lingshan's current status and strength.
He just found it unbelievable.
If you think about it carefully, the time interval between my ascension and Zhang Lingshan's ascension wasn't that long, so why is there such a big difference?
I thought my talents were limited in the Nine Provinces Continent, and that I would be able to make great strides after ascension. Even if I wasn't as good as Zhang Lingshan, I wouldn't be far behind.
But reality gave him a harsh wake-up call.
This blow was truly unexpected and caused everyone to lose their composure.
"what happened?"
Seeing Chen Youming in a daze, Zhang Lingshan said, "If you don't kill these two, I'll take them in."
Chen Youming came to his senses and said, "Since it was captured by you, Your Majesty, it is natural for you to take it in."
Zhang Lingshan chuckled and said, "Great Emperor of the Underworld, I heard that when you founded the Underworld, you claimed to have five Underworld Emperors and ten Underworld Kings under your command, as well as countless Underworld Gods and Generals. It was a complete system and could truly be called a living Underworld Ghost Realm. It's a pity that I didn't see all the heroes of the Underworld gathered together under your command. It's a great pity."
"I am ashamed."
Chen Youming felt that the other party was mocking him.
Zhang Lingshan continued, "I am not very talented, but I have recently opened up a Yama Ghost Realm. Today, I would like to ask you to give me some pointers and tell me where I need to improve."
talking.
The sky immediately darkened, and a chilling wind swept in from all sides. At the same time, two large red-lacquered doors appeared out of nowhere, landing behind the man and woman who had been captured by Zhang Lingshan.
"What's this!!?"
Chen Youming was shocked and couldn't help but take several steps back.
Such a dense yin energy, and a large amount of resentful and venomous energy that makes one tremble.
What lies behind those two red doors that gives one such a terrifying feeling?
The man and woman who had been unconscious on the ground also sensed this, feeling an intense chill throughout their bodies. They couldn't help but shiver and wake up, only to find themselves surrounded by darkness and the red door exuding a ghostly aura. The two of them were immediately horrified.
The woman mustered her courage and cried out in a shrill voice, "I am from the City Lord Zhao Xuancheng's Mansion..."
Before she could finish speaking, the red door slammed open, and countless ghostly hands reached out, pulling at her arms, legs, and head...
In the blink of an eye, their souls were pulled into the red gate, and then the surroundings returned to calm.
Seeing that the two bodies were still lying on the ground, Chen Youming wondered if it was all an illusion.
"hehe."
Zhang Lingshan noticed Chen Youming's question, and with a snap of his fingers, he turned the two corpses into energy smoke, which he then inhaled. He laughed and said, "Youming Emperor, that was my Yama Ghost Realm just now. How does it compare to your Youming Ghost Realm?"
"What I just saw, was it all real?"
Chen Youming exclaimed in surprise.
Zhang Lingshan said, "It is merely a meager power of Dharma Aspect that I have condensed. With the talent of the Netherworld Emperor, once he cultivates to the Dharma Aspect Realm, he will surely be able to successfully condense it as well."
As he spoke, he rolled up the storage bags of the two men and handed them to Chen Youming, saying, "Great Emperor Youming, back then you helped me open the Dragon Palace with the Netherworld Fire. Today, I will use the Yama Ghost Realm to help you comprehend the power of my Dharma Form. I hope you will achieve great things in the future and attain the Great Dao. Farewell."
That's all.
Zhang Lingshan's figure slowly disappeared from the spot.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Xuancheng's city lord's mansion was shrouded in a cloud of black mist. The red gate opened wide, and everyone, including the city lord, entered the Yama Ghost Realm and became one of the ghosts.
This eliminated a potential threat to Chen Youming.
After all, he had killed the man and woman from the city lord's mansion in Zhao Xuancheng and given the storage bag to Chen Youming, which would definitely bring trouble to Chen Youming.
So they simply destroyed Zhao Xuancheng's city lord's mansion, which not only helped Chen Youming but also replenished the Yama Ghost Realm, achieving the best of both worlds.
This time, Zhang Lingshan has completely repaid Chen Youming's favor and left behind his legacy in the Yama Ghost Realm.
If Chen Youming truly possesses good fortune and exceptional talent, I believe he will definitely succeed in his cultivation and smoothly reach the Ghost King Domain, helping him perfect the Ghost Dao power of this world.
In conclusion, since Zhang Lingshan believed that this mortal realm belonged to him, leaving behind any legacy to help others was also helping himself, providing a solid foundation for his future world.
'Found it!'
After traversing the Xuanjiang Domain countless times, Zhang Lingshan finally discovered a spatial interlayer in an ordinary room.
He could hardly believe that this hidden space was just an ordinary piece of paper.
Moreover, this piece of paper is not isolated, but is sewn together with other papers; it is a page in a book.
No wonder it's so hard to find; who would have thought that a page of space could be hidden inside a book?
This book is not isolated; it is placed on a bookshelf, among other miscellaneous books.
"Would you like to buy a book?"
A hunched old man parted the curtain and emerged from behind the study, asking Zhang Lingshan a question. (End of Chapter)
