Years after years continued to pass and very soon, a hundred years passed.
Ye Xiao was still cultivating on a piece of floating land. In the infinite darkness, only pieces of floating lands were glowing with a pale light. But if one looks closely, one will be able to see countless threads enveloping the entire river of darkness. Among these threads, only one thread was shining brightly.
This was the Law of Space in the Net of Laws.
Ye Xiao spent entire hundred years comprehending the Law of Space.
If it was on the First Floor of Nine Story Pagoda, only one year would have passed.
However, Ye Xiao no longer has access to the Nine Story Pagoda. Because of this, he had to spend a hundred years cultivating outside in real.
But...
Although Ye Xiao could no longer cultivate on the First Floor of Nine Story Pagoda, it does not mean there is no way to speed up the flow of time.
Before he started comprehending the Law of Space, Ye Xiao first laid down a God-levelled Formation. Because of this formation, the 100 years that he spend comprehending the Space Law was actually equal to 1,000 years of time.
The time difference was only 1:10.
If Heavens has restricted something; it is time. No one could comprehend the Law of Time, no one could understand the nature of time, and no one could manipulate time as they wish.
However, using formation, one could still slightly manipulate time. Ye Xiao also did the same. And with this, he was able to comprehend the Law of Space to perfection.
It actually took him 1,000 years to comprehend the Space Law to perfection, and it was with the help of the Net of Laws. If not for the Net of Laws, maybe, it could have taken him more than 10,000 years to perfectly comprehend the Law of Space.
With the Net of Laws being there, Ye Xiao was able to easily comprehend the Law of Space.
"Will I really be able to comprehend all laws and their Profound Meanings in time before Supreme Ancient Devil invades the Heavens in order to find and kill me?"
Ye Xiao sighed and thought deeply.
Well, comprehending Laws is possible though. But he could not guarantee the comprehension of Profound Meaning.
What is more, he was still not sure about the Law of Time. Even on the Net of Laws, although he could see the thread belonging to the Law of Time there, he could not sense it for some reason. And since he could not sense the Law of Time, it is obvious he could not comprehend it.
"Devouring Laws and Profound Meanings will greatly reduce the time taken to comprehend all the Laws of Heavenly Dao and their Profound Meanings."
"God Tower, my next target is you!"
Muttering, Ye Xiao stood up and slashed with his hand into the void in front of him. If Feng Yang was here, he would have been shocked to see that Ye Xiao's hand was actually wrapped with intense spatial fluctuation, concentrated with the Law of Space.
A crack appeared in the void with Ye Xiao's slash. The next instant, Ye Xiao stepped into the void before muttering a single word: "Teleport!"
.....
_Destiny Dao Sect_
All elders were gathered in front of a huge barrier. This barrier was not transparent but pale golden in colour. There seemed to be a vast but barren land on the other side of the barrier that could not be seen clearly because of the pale golden barrier.
Fu Ming was also present here. He looked at the elders and then reached out to the Sect Leader before asking: "Sect Leader, it has already been more than a hundred years since the Eyes of Heavenly Dao appeared and attacked the secret realm of the Heavenly Demon Race."
"Since the Eyes of Heavenly Dao appeared, it means something must have happened inside the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm that went against the will of Heavens."
"We assumed that Ye Xiao has obtained the Law Breaking Axe."
"However, even though more than a hundred years have already passed, he has yet to come back. I think something must have happened there and we have no idea about that matter. Why don't we send someone to investigate?"
All other elders except for the Grand Elder nodded their heads and looked at the sect leader, waiting for him to answer.
Fu Ming was surprised when he saw Grand Elder silently looking beyond the pale Golden Barrier. He could not understand why Grand Elder is so silent.
At this moment, the sect leader sighed and spoke: "Sigh!"
"Ming, what do you think about the Eyes of Heavenly Dao? Tell me, why does it appear, and most important, what it brought along whenever it appears?"
Fu Ming was stunned when he heard this question. He is already an Ancient God, and the youngest one at that, and this caused his knowledge about many things to be shallow.
But still, he took his time answering the Sect Leader's question. He replied: "Eyes of Heavenly Dao appear whenever something goes against the Will of Heavens. It is very mysterious and has boundless strength. As far as I can think of, the Eyes of Heavenly Dao do not have consciousness, it is actually the manifestation of boundless powers of Laws and Profound Meanings. As for its appearance, maybe, the Heavenly Dao thinks of making a person fear it and the will of the heavens, that's why it always takes the shape of Eyes before descending."
"Umm... Whenever the Eyes of Heavenly Dao appear, they always bring destruction!"
Sect Leader of Destiny Dao Sect nodded his head in satisfaction, then he said: "You are right about everything."
"Now, as you said, the Eyes of Heavenly Dao bring destruction whenever it appears. Think about it, the Eyes of Heavenly Dao appeared a hundred years ago, what would have happened inside the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm?"
Fu Ming raised his brows with a surprised expression, then his expression changed and became grim. It is not just him, the expression of all the elders present at the scene turned ashen.
They all seemed to have thought of something and looked at the pale golden barrier again. But this time, their expression and the thoughts in their hearts were completely different from before.
The Sect Leader seemed to have seen through their thoughts. He let out a deep sigh and spoke again: "We can't calculate Ye Xiao's fate to begin with, causing us unable to know whether he is alive or not. That's why, a few years ago, I sent three people inside to check the situation, but only one person returned. And according to him, there is no Heavenly Demon Secret Realm any longer. It has long been destroyed!"
"What?" X n
All the elders exclaimed at once. They already have this idea in their hearts, but when the Sect Leader really told the thoughts hidden deep in their hearts, they could no longer stay calm.
Fu Ming could not help but ask: "Then... Ye Xiao... Is he dead?"
"No one knows!"
It was the Great Elder who spoke for the first time. He kept looking at the vast barren land on the other side of the golden barrier and continued his speech. He said: "We lost our hope of finding Law Breaking Axe, but today, I calculated something very strange. I divined that the Law Breaking Axe will appear at this place today. I don't know the exact timing, but it will definitely appear today."
"And since the Law Breaking Axe will appear, it means..."
Fu Ming's eyes lit up. His expression finally eased up as he muttered in a low voice, but loud enough for others to hear: "It means Ye Xiao might still be alive, and he is no longer trapped. He must have found some other path that could lead him out of his predicament."
The sect Leader and the Grand Elder of the Destiny Dao Sect nodded their heads, agreeing with Fu Ming. They were also thinking exactly like this.
Suddenly, at this moment, an intense spatial fluctuation appeared in the void in front of them. This fluctuation was on the other side of the pale Golden Barrier.
"This is...?"
Everyone was surprised. They stared straight, waiting to see what will happen next.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the void and a white-robed figure appeared outside the crack with a flash.
The notable thing here is that the white-robed figure didn't walk out of the crack in space, he suddenly appeared, as if he has been teleported.
This white-robed figure was obviously Ye Xiao.
With the help of his "teleportation" ability as well as a complete understanding of Space Law, he didn't find it difficult to leave the river of darkness and appear inside the forbidden ground of the Destiny Dao Sect.
Yes, on the other side of the pale golden barrier, it was the Forbidden Ground of Destiny Dao Sect.
And the entrance to the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm was located somewhere deep inside this forbidden land. Though, it is no longer in existence anymore.
