Chapter 700: Chapter 628: Forming a Circus Wouldn’t Be Bad

Immortal Gate,

With the addition of the second batch of formal disciples and the Outer Sect laborers, there are now over ten thousand Awakeners living on Immortal Gate Mountain.

The originally unnamed mountain peak could no longer accommodate them.

Ten days ago,

Sect Leader Tang lifted the height of the mountain with unsurpassed might, shaping an Immortal Realm.

Now,

The current Immortal Gate encompasses a total of nine peaks, with the main peak towering over a kilometer high, shrouded in clouds and mist, occasionally with enormous silhouettes flying past—known as Ascending Immortal Peak.

The other peaks include Bamboo Forest Peak, designated for disciples’ living quarters, and Sky Refining Peak, cloaked in illusion techniques, designed as a cultivation ground…

From time to time, disciples of the Immortal Gate can be seen leaping through the forest; occasionally, an ability user soars through the skies.

Ascending Immortal Peak, Sect Leader Hall.

The moment Tang Yu got his hands on the crystal that contained fragments of Space Law, he immediately returned to the sect to ponder it meticulously.

Eyes closed and then open, half a month had passed.

“Space is indeed profound and mystical.”

As he spoke,

The whirlpools in his pupils slowly vanished, and the gently undulating space around him fell into stillness.

The difficulty of comprehending Space Law is much greater than that of common laws such as Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth.

Previously,

Even with the high spatial affinity granted by his possession of the Nightmare, he had sensed for a long time without even grasping the surface of Space Law.

This was actually quite normal; after all, Laws are the domain of those at the Transcendent Third Tier, who might begin to comprehend them only at the apex of their field.

He was merely an early Stage Two.

But he could use Consuming Crystals.

The Crystal-Consuming Man fears nothing.

Holding the crystal of Space Law fragment, consciousness bound within the Nightmare Puppet, a torrent of Telekinesis energy value flooding into his body to enhance his perception… In just half a month, he had successfully touched upon… the very surface of Space Law.

He put away the Space Crystal and concentrated.

He could faintly see special lines hidden within the surrounding space; with a thought, he plucked one of the threads.

Buzz—

A wave of Space Power brushed past, and Tang Yu disappeared within the cultivation room.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared on the edge of a cliff a hundred meters away behind the palace.

Instant Teleportation, successful!

As for the fact that it required a couple of seconds to prepare before Instant Teleportation, he chose to conveniently ignore that detail.

At this moment,

A vast shadow emerged from the sea of clouds.

It was a Void Kun.

In just over half a month, it had grown… to a length of over thirty meters, and its aura had progressed from an ordinary Transcendent to a Senior Transcendent.

“Ying ying ying—”

Its chubby… oh, the moment Void Kun showed up, it drew close, attracted by the scent of the Space Law.

Tang Yu waved his hand dismissively.

“The Water Series Law Crystal has already been given to you; now, let’s calculate the resources you’ve consumed over this period…”

Source Power condensed in mid-air, forming a list.

Below it was the chubby Void Kun’s Contribution Degree, negative ten thousand and more.

“Come, let’s calculate how many tasks you need to complete to repay… Oh right, negative Contribution Degrees accumulate interest.”

Void Kun: “Σ(☉▽☉ “a”

…

Tang Yu sent Avatar One to oversee Sky Blue Star while he returned to Green Shadow Floating City.

The Void Kun enforcer had given him new inspiration.

Now on one hand, he planned to swindle… purchase more Law Crystal fragments from Anxia Country, and on the other hand, naturally, was to enhance the power of his Territory.

And luring Mutant Beasts was evidently easier.

Especially with a target already in mind.

Right on Earth.

…

Tiannan Province, Jing City.

A streak of light halted abruptly, revealing Tang Yu’s figure.

Mirage Mountain Range!

Once, the Mirage Mountain Range had been a treasure hunting ground for countless adventurers and mercenaries, scattered with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and equipment left by predecessors.

But soon,

as the periphery of the Mirage Mountain Range was dug three feet deep, the loot that adventurers took home became scarcer and scarcer. In contrast, the degree of danger didn’t decrease at all; from time to time, dangerous Mutant Beasts would charge out from the inner parts of the mountain range.

Nowadays, the strength of Freelance adventurers wasn’t weak.

Elite teams usually had Body-shaping Realm leaders, and large adventure groups often boasted experts in the Source Condensation Realm.

However, compared to the Transcendent Tier Mutant Beasts roaming the inner layers of the mountain range, they were not much to speak of.

Even on the outskirts, one could run into hunting Transcendent Mutant Beasts if unlucky, and in such cases, unless it was an Awakener with a Divine item like the Return City Scroll, there was almost no chance of escape.

Fortunately, most Transcendent Tier Mutant Beasts couldn’t leave the Mirage Mountain Range, which meant Jing City faced less defensive pressure.

Green Shadow also stationed a Guardian Corps team of five hundred members there permanently.

Tang Yu entered the Mirage Mountain Range and in the blink of an eye, the sky turned dim.

He had entered the inner layer.

Reckless flying immediately drew the attention of many Transcendent Mutant Beasts… and not just Mutant Beasts.

A massive, faceless shadow blocked his path.

This was a giant Spiritual Body-type Monster, emitting a piercing screech that stabbed right at the soul.

Tang Yu frowned slightly, and his solid spiritual power transformed into a giant hammer, smashing the soul-piercing shriek to smithereens.

His speed unimpeded, flames rose between his loosely closed palms, condensing into a crimson longsword. As he flitted past the Transcendent Spiritual Body, he swung his sword, decapitating it.

A troublesome Transcendent Spiritual Body, in a mere instant, turned to dust and smoke.

All that remained were two white crystals falling from the sky.

One Transcendent Crystal, one Soul Crystal.

Tang Yu collected the spoils of war and continued forward along the remembered route.

Not long after,

“ROAR!!!”

A thunderous roar came from a distance.

A Single-Horned Giant Beast with a pair of wings on its back flew through the deep mountains, surveying its Territory.

The Single-Horned Giant Beast!

The overlord of the inner layer of the Mirage Mountain Range.

It was you!

…

The Single-Horned Giant Beast was an old friend of Tang Yu’s; back then, it was by leading a Single-Horned Giant Beast that he thwarted the Blood Mouth Clan’s plans.

But the Single-Horned Giant Beast didn’t recognize him.

After all, whatever the Nightmare Puppet did had nothing to do with Lord Tang.

As soon as Tang Yu spotted the Single-Horned Giant Beast, it noticed him too.

As a regional overlord, the Single-Horned Giant Beast had never feared anyone; it reached out with a claw, crossing countless distances in the blink of an eye, seemingly about to snatch Tang Yu in its grasp.

“Second Tier… Basic Period.”

Tang Yu instantly judged the Single-Horned Giant Beast’s realm, which was comparable to his own.

But…

Nine Origin cores condensed into a torrential Origin, like a mighty river.

He counterattacked, and a Third Tier Divine Longsword appeared in his hand.

“Fiery Flame Burning!”

The flames devoured the giant claw and swept toward the Single-Horned Giant Beast.

At the same time, a pressure descended on the Single-Horned Giant Beast, preventing it from dodging in time.

Boom!

The massive body was flung away like a torn sack.

Though it recovered in the blink of an eye, that single strike had caused it to lose more than 8% of its Origin—the flames carried a burning force that was hard to dispel!

The Single-Horned Giant Beast became afraid.

It thought about fleeing, but then it remembered it was the overlord of the Mirage Mountain Range, and the other was merely an outsider human.

The overlord’s dignity couldn’t be challenged.

“ROAR—”

The enormous roar spread far and wide, echoing through the mountains.

Soon after, several directions within the mountain range responded.

A good beast doesn’t suffer losses easily; it had called for backup!

If it couldn’t win a one-on-one, then why not a brawl!

The Single-Horned Giant Beast was full of confidence, determined to teach this human a lesson!

And at the same time,

Tang Yu, who was in the midst of executing physical persuasion, had a gleam in his eyes…
