Chapter 782: The Only Thing That Could Defeat Carelessness Was Carefulness

…

Ye Xiao was now extremely curious about the third existence.

However, the other party was so powerful that he might not be able to sense the other party. He could only try his best to see if he could surpass the Ancestral Dragon and sense the traces left behind by the third existence.

When those people left behind traces here, their strength might not have been very strong.

However, their final cultivation had reached an unprecedented level, so those places of comprehension that carried their life aura would naturally have their value multiplied.

That kind of connection was somewhat like a school district.

It could be said that it was like the gift that Ye Xiao brought to the Xuan Yuan clan when he raised his cultivation!

However, that also meant that they might still be alive. Perhaps, even if they were dead, the time they died was not very long.

That was because only if they were alive would the law energy contained in that place become stronger as their strength grew stronger.

If they were already dead, the law energy contained there would become lesser and lesser until it completely disappeared.

However, even if they were already dead, the heights that they had reached when they were alive were definitely unattainable.

That was because after they died, the cave still had such a strong foundation. One could imagine how terrifying they were when they were alive?

Especially the third one!

The third one was definitely not ordinary. Yes.

Ye Xiao began to completely immerse himself in it.

He had already used up all of his strength. If someone were to barge in at that time and attack him, he might not even be able to sense it.

However, even if he had already reached his limit, he still had no way of finding out who that fellow was!

‘Why don’t I first refine the law energy I comprehended from the first two levels? This way, my cultivation will be able to increase by another portion.

‘If my strength increases, I should be able to comprehend the third level of the law energy.’

Ye Xiao immediately used the first two levels of the law energy he had just comprehended to strengthen his strength.

Very soon, the sound of thunder exploding rang out from within his body.

That was the collision and fusion of the law energy… In the end, it all belonged to Ye Xiao’s own strength.

Very quickly, his cultivation increased by a large margin once again.

The power of laws left behind by those two people was also extraordinary. It directly allowed him to successfully advance to the peak of the Celestial Sovereign realm. He was only half a step away from stepping into the final level, the Supreme Sovereign realm.

However, it did not allow Ye Xiao to successfully step into the Supreme Sovereign realm. It was probably because the Ancestral Dragon had already absorbed it once.

If the person left behind was still alive, although the law energy was absorbed, it might evolve again as the other party’s strength continued to increase.

However, the Ancestral Dragon had advanced to the Supreme Sovereign realm all of a sudden. It might have absorbed too much, so it was impossible to cultivate all of it at once.

However, there was still the third level. If he could successfully comprehend the third level, he should be able to step into the final level.

Ye Xiao once again tried to comprehend it.

Time passed minute by minute, and he also tried to sense the power of the laws countless times.

…

At the same time, on the other side, Nalan Qi had also arrived at a certain spot in the void.

However, he had just arrived there when the surrounding spatial barrier began to shake.

“Nalan Qi, why didn’t you stay in your cave abode properly and come to my place?”

Nalan Qi heard the other party’s voice and smiled,

“Brother Li, long time no see. How have you been?”

“Cut the cr*p. I’m asking you. What are you doing here?”

“I’m actually here for a very important matter. I want to talk to Brother Li. Please show yourself.”

“No need. Just say what you want. You’re not welcome here. You can leave after you’re done.”

“Hehe, Brother Li, why do you have to be like this? What I’m here to talk to you about today is extremely important to you. Your descendants have been destroyed.”

“What did you say?”

After saying that, the other party immediately stepped out of the alternate dimension. The spatial barrier in front of him was completely shattered.

A figure with long snow-white hair appeared in front of Nalan Qi.

“Brother Li, although you are already a Supreme Sovereign, in order to prevent the information from the outside world from affecting you, you sealed yourself up and went into closed-door cultivation. That’s why you didn’t feel that your descendant was destroyed by others.

“Since you’ve already come out, you can sense it and see if I’m lying to you.”

“Who did it?”

He did not need to sense it at all.

For a cultivator at his level, his own descendants would be able to sense it immediately after being killed by someone else.

Previously, he did not sense it because he had sealed himself away, so he did not sense it.

At that point, the moment he came out, he could sense it instantly.

Nalan Qi put away the smile on his face and said solemnly,

“It was done by a guy called Ye Xiao. This guy instigated a war between the Void Alliance and the Lord of Heaven’s sacred hall in order to advance himself. From there, he killed both of our juniors and absorbed them into his body to help him raise his cultivation.

“He is now a cultivator at the Celestial Sovereign realm.”

“A Celestial Sovereign? How is this possible? If it was just a Celestial Sovereign, it would be absolutely impossible for him to defeat so many Celestial Sovereigns.

“Furthermore, my junior is already a lesser Supreme Sovereign.

“Just him alone wouldn’t be able to reach this level, right?”

“Brother Li is right. An ordinary Celestial Sovereign definitely wouldn’t be able to reach this level. However, this brat is different. His strength is extremely powerful, far exceeding our imaginations.

“Moreover, he can even cross ranks to fight. There are very few Celestial Sovereigns who are his match. If he advances to the Supreme Sovereign realm, it seems that there is no way to stop him.”

“What about you? Where were you? Why didn’t you step forward? You have already reached the Supreme Sovereign realm. It is impossible for you to lose to that guy. Could it be that you are secretly protecting him? Deliberately causing the death of my junior?”

“This is a great injustice, Brother Li. The main reason is that there’s a powerful Supreme Sovereign behind this kid! His name is Ancestral Dragon!

“Although this person doesn’t seem to be anything special, in reality, his strength is even stronger than mine.”

“There’s actually such a level of existence? How come I’ve never heard of his name? In the supreme immemorial era, there doesn’t seem to be such a person.”

“This guy doesn’t belong to our era. He should belong to this era.”

“What? The people of this era can successfully advance to the Supreme Sovereign realm? And their strength is even stronger than yours?

“The power of law in this era is nothing compared to before. How is this possible? Are you lying to me?”

“I definitely am not lying to you. I swear on my martial heart. If I lie to Brother Li, I will never take another step forward in my life.”

When Li Huo heard him say that, he naturally did not doubt his words.

However, what that guy said was too shocking.

Could it be that he had been cultivating in seclusion for so many years? Had there already been a new change in the world?

“You came looking for me now. Could it be that you want me to join hands with you to deal with that kid?”

“That’s right! Brother Li, that kid’s strength is extraordinary. In fact, in order to achieve his goal, he can be said to be completely unscrupulous.

“If he is allowed to achieve the Supreme Sovereign realm, he might even make a move against us in the future.”

Li Huo’s expression was extremely cold.

“This little b*stard is only a junior, yet he dares to be so arrogant towards us. He’s simply tired of living.”

“There’s nothing that he doesn’t dare to do. He relied on the fact that he has a Supreme Sovereign backing for him, yet he actually killed a group of my subordinates in front of me. If it wasn’t for me running away earlier, I feel that he might even make the Supreme Sovereign backing him make a move against me and use me to help him raise his cultivation.”

“This kid is actually so arrogant!”

Li Huo clenched his fists tightly, and the bones of his fingers creaked. The surrounding law energy all transformed into lightning bolts, crackling, and flashing.

“Bring me to him. I want to see just how arrogant this guy is.”

“Not for the time being. This person’s strength isn’t much, but what’s more troublesome is the Supreme Sovereign behind him.

“If the two of us rashly head over, I have a bad feeling.”

“Do you mean that the two of us can’t defeat him with our strength?”

Nalan Qi nodded.

Li Huo’s eyes revealed a trace of disbelief.

Even two Supreme Sovereigns combined were unable to defeat the other party.

Moreover, most importantly, he was not from the supreme immemorial era. He was just a junior from the current era.

That fellow was actually able to cultivate to such a degree. Just how monstrous must he be?

“Then what do you think?”

“Right now, we should go and find our allies to help us. After we find the person, we’ll join forces to look for him. If we have more people, it’ll be more or less safer.

“After all, in this vast void, if the two of us are seriously injured, it’ll definitely attract the attention of other high-level cultivators. When that time comes, it’ll be even more troublesome.”

“You’re right! Since that’s the case, the two of us will go and find our allies. We’ll meet here in three days.”

“Alright! It’s a deal!”

Li Huo directly disappeared on the spot, traversing through space-time and heading in another direction.

The corners of Nalan Qi’s mouth curled up.

‘Ye Xiao and Ancestral Dragon! Let’s see if the two of you will die this time? I’ll definitely use the bones of the two of you to pay tribute to my juniors!’

…

On the other side of the cave, Ye Xiao still failed in the end. There were a few times when he had already touched the edge of that layer, but when he wanted to approach it, he realized that he was still very far away. That layer of law energy was already alive, an existence with its own consciousness.

In order to prevent him from absorbing it, it deliberately avoided him.

That made Ye Xiao unable to help but feel somewhat dejected.

It seemed that the other party was really an extremely powerful existence. There was simply no way to sense the layer of rules that he had left behind.

That also made him feel a sense of defeat for the first time in his life.

He did not expect that there would actually be such a powerful existence in the world.

Forget it!

There will always be something in life, but in life, there is no time to force things!

It was already very good that Ye Xiao was able to obtain the power of laws left behind by the first two. One should not be too greedy and not ask for too much.

‘Oh right, speaking of which, why don’t I try using the Golden Book divine soul? The power of the Golden Book divine soul is also an existence that I have yet to reach. Perhaps it has a way to sense the third layer of the power of laws.’

Thinking up to that point, Ye Xiao immediately summoned his Golden Book divine soul.

The moment the Golden Book divine soul appeared, the entire cave instantly underwent a change.

When the Ancestral Dragon guarding outside saw that scene, he could not help but be shocked.

‘Good kid, could it be that this kid has comprehended the third layer? His aptitude is actually so many times more terrifying than mine.’

However, he quickly turned from shock to surprise.

‘It’s still much better for this kid to be stronger than me. He was born much later than me. If it wasn’t for his aptitude being stronger than mine, it would have been impossible for him to catch up to my pace.

‘If he was not as strong, the two of us would not have as much hope of fighting against the God of Creation in the future.

‘Now that he’s stronger, the two of us have a greater hope.’

In the cave, once the Golden Book divine soul appeared, Ye Xiao instantly sensed an unusual power.

Extremely powerful!

So powerful that it was incomparable!

That power was the strongest power he had ever seen in his life.

He even had a feeling that even a Supreme Sovereign like the Ancestral Dragon was just a tiny ant in front of that fellow.

It could not be any easier for the other party to kill him.

‘So powerful! There’s actually such a powerful existence in this world. Just what level has his strength reached?’

After Ye Xiao took a deep breath, he very quickly immersed his mind and fused with it.

It was an unprecedented energy.

That energy was even stronger than all the powers he had cultivated up until then.

It was extremely powerful!

If he could obtain that energy, he would be able to do whatever he wanted in the world.

Moreover, it was only the law energy left behind by the other party in that cave, and it was not even his own power.

If it was his own power, what kind of terrifying level would it reach?

Ye Xiao did not dare to imagine at all.

At that moment, along with the law energy gradually entering his body, some ancient memories that had never existed before also flashed in his mind.

Those were the memories left behind by the owner of the third power of law!

“This world is too dangerous. I’d better not go out. I’ll just obediently cultivate here and raise my strength to a sufficiently strong level before going out.

“Today, a few more people were killed. Although my cultivation has already risen to a very strong level, I’d better continue cultivating for a period of time.

“Should I simply cultivate to the peak of this world? Then go out? However, even if I cultivate to the peak of this world, there might still be cultivators from other worlds, right? Will they be even stronger?

“Why don’t I just continue cultivating in this cave forever? In any case, the disciples can also increase my cultivation. Wang Cai, that silly dog, will also give me rewards. I don’t have to go out to look for opportunities or anything.”

“…”
