Heaven and Earth in an Inch”, a widely known yet unmastered space spell, was close to the essence of spatial spells, and can only be learned by those who greatly enlighten or have a great opportunity.

Once mastered, one is free and easy, and no place in the vast world is beyond their reach.

“So you were thinking of landing on a cliff edge, how unique,” Fairy Eternity marveled, impressed by the young man she had possessed, who had quickly mastered the difficult “Heaven and Earth in an Inch” spell.

“Unique, my foot! I thought of Sky Gate Mountain, not this place!” Lu Yang yelled, only human to be upset about unexpectedly appearing in midair above a cliff.

The most important thing was he was in free fall!

If he actually hit the ground, being flattened into an unrecognizable mass of flesh would be the least of his worries.

Fairy Eternity’s face changed drastically at his words. If anything untoward happened to Lu Yang, the young girl would undoubtedly smash Fairy Eternity’s spirit into a thousand pieces!

“Hurry, hurry, quickly let me take control of your body. I’ll save you!”

In such a critical moment, Lu Yang could not pin his hopes on the unreliable Fairy Eternity. He was falling faster, and had to figure out a way to land safely. Lu Yang took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. He couldn’t see anything but darkness below, so there was no issue of being afraid of heights.

“Heaven and Earth in an Inch!”

Lu Yang prayed the newly learned spell could teleport him back, that would be the best outcome.

Lu Yang, who was in mid-fall, vanished and reappeared in the air above the cliff.

Lu Yang: “…”

It seemed he wasn’t going back for the time being, it’s okay, he had a second plan.

“Shrink!”

Lu Yang only shrinks his body, his clothes remain the same size. He grabbed the corners of his clothes, making himself a makeshift parachute, only then did he start to slow down.

“Phew— ” Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

Cliffs rose steeply on both sides, Lu Yang was swaying in the middle, his heart trembled with uncertainty, not knowing what awaited him.

Look, the cliff ahead is protruding out, like a platform. Land there!” Fairy Eternity yelled.

“Where? I can’t see it,” Lu Yang frowned.

It’s on the left, on your left. I saw it before you because my spiritual sense has a longer range than yours!”

Lu Yang followed Fairy Eternity’s instructions and landed on a platform.

Only when he finally stepped down did Lu Yang fully relax. He was scared out of his wits just now.

“Was the spell you used just now really ‘Heaven and Earth in an Inch’?” Fairy Eternity looked at Lu Yang doubtfully. She had performed it many times, but had never encountered such a situation.

“That… should be… right?” Even Lu Yang wasn’t sure. Right now, he had a sense of his own aptitude for casting spells. He knew that he couldn’t blame everything on Eldest Senior Sister for teaching him the wrong way.

He himself also bore part of the responsibility.

At least it’s a proper spatial spell, and one that can teleport you out.” Lu Yang consoled himself.

Moreover, the “Heaven and Earth in an Inch” that Lu Yang practiced has an advantage.

Cultivators of spatial spells fear opponents who also cultivate space spells the most. The opponent would calculate where you would teleport to and follow you relentlessly, which is very troublesome.

Lu Yang didn’t need to worry about this. After all, even he didn’t know where he would teleport himself to.

“So, where exactly are we?” Lu Yang looked up at the sky. The cliffs were steep, and all he could see was a slit of blue sky. He couldn’t tell where he was.

He wondered how far away he was from the Seek Dao Sect, or whether this place was still in the Central Continent?

“It doesn’t matter.” Fairy Eternity encouraged Lu Yang, “As long as this fairy is here to ensure your safety, nothing will go wrong!”

Lu Yang felt it was better to rely on himself than depend on this fairy. At least he knows his own abilities clearly, unlike the fairy.

Let’s go inside and see. It seems to be a cave dwelling,” Fairy Eternity proposed.

“Alright.”

As soon as Lu Yang walked into the cave, he heard a “boom” behind him, it was the sound of two stone doors closing.

He didn’t know what material the stone door was made of. Lu Yang gritted his teeth and used all his might without moving the doors an inch.

“Don’t waste your energy,” Fairy Eternity said with a serious expression. “This door was made by a great power. You, a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage, can’t budge it.”

With the stone door closed, the originally dark cave was completely obscured.

Just as Lu Yang was about to use Three-flavored True Fire to provide some light, a faint light suddenly lit up on both sides.

“Night pearl?” Along the long corridor of the cavern on both sides were rows of glowing stones.

Lu Yang had heard of this method of arranging night pearls before, but where?

“Well, we have to press on.”

Only Lu Yang’s footsteps echoed through the empty corridor, giving it an eerie and strange atmosphere.

Lu Yang reached the end of the corridor. There stood two rows of majestic soldier figurines, each holding a magic instrument. They seemed to be guarding a stone tablet that reads: “Eternal Rest for the Departed”.

Lu Yang finally realized where that sense of familiarity came from. This place was a grave!

“Eternal Rest for the Departed” was a common epitaph in human tombs.

Lu Yang was taken aback, never having expected to walk into a tomb.

“This… this is a grave?!” Fairy Eternity tried to sound composed, but Lu Yang heard a tremor and unease in her voice.

“It seems so,” Lu Yang nodded solemnly, feeling he had gotten caught up in big trouble.

“Oh.” Fairy Eternity swallowed hard, clearly nervous.

Looking at her, an absurd thought occurred to Lu Yang, “Fairy, you’re not afraid of ghosts, are you?”

“Wli… who would be scared of such things? I am a proper immortal,” Fairy Eternity’s voice trembled.

“But you’re shaking.”

“Cold.”

“Do you remember what you’re called?”

“Fairy Eternity.”

“With that title, you would be a significant figure in the tomb robbery field, like

a Zombie Ancestor. What are you afraid of?”

Reflecting on the fairy who had previously vowed to protect him, Lu Yang felt that not believing in her lies was the best decision he made.

“There’s no need to be scared. I just happen to have a book about tombs,” Lu Yang pulled out a book named “Tomb Raiding Insights” from his Identity Jade.

It was a gift given by Shang Zhongtian, the head of the Shang Family, as a thank you for killing the Skin-Peeling Ghost.

“I didn’t expect it to be useful here.”

‘All, you have such a good thing.” Fairy Eternity’s eyes brightened. Fear of graves and ghosts comes from the unknown. With this book, their fear would diminish significantly.

Open it and see what’s written inside. Does it describe what kind of tomb this is?” Fairy Eternity urged.

Lu Yang had not read the book after he received it. It’s not too late to read it now.

He opened the first page and began to read aloud:

“According to Article 532 of the Great Xia Criminal Law, any person or Qi Refinement cultivators who illegally excavate historical, artistic, or cultivation value tombs will be sentenced to not less than three years but not more than ten years in prison and also fined. If the circumstances are relatively minor, the sentence is not more than three years in prison with a fine.”

Foundation Establishment cultivators committing this crime would receive a doubled sentence compared to a Qi Refinement cultivator.”

Lu Yang felt that this book seemed a bit unreliable.
