As he thought of this, he summoned the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron. Within the cauldron, the Nirvana law was diffused throughout it. Inside the world transformed by it, Wushuang, the Netherworld law, and the Immortal law all lay dormant. They were being nurtured day and night by the Nirvana law power.
When he was in the Heavenly Longevity Realm, Lin Xun had begun to comprehend the profound meaning of the Nirvana law, thereby creating his own immortal law. This, combined with the power of the laws he had grasped from the Nirvana law power, had given him an absolute advantage in battles against other Immortals.
This time, after reaching the Nirvana Spirit Realm, Lin Xun had attempted to refine the Nirvana law directly into an immortal law. Unfortunately, that proved to be exceedingly difficult. In the past seven days, he had only been able to refine a tiny fraction! If the Nirvana law was a vast ocean, then what he had refined in the past week would be a drop of water...
Truly too difficult!
Furthermore, it would be hard for him to see any results in such a short period of time. However, this was easily solved by refining other law powers first.
The immortal law Lin Xun currently possessed was condensed from the profound principles of the Nirvana law power. This meant that any law power he subsequently refined, regardless of rank or attribute, would transform into its purest form, becoming part of his own immortal law, without altering its properties.
In short, for those in the Nirvana Spirit Realm, refining law power, like refining immortal divine essence, would only benefit their own cultivation and the immortal law they wielded.
"Master, you...are you planning to refine Shuang'er?"
In the Nirvana law power, Wushuang, dressed in white like a pure young girl, looked anxious and pitiful, her large, watery eyes filled with worry.
Lin Xun finally emerged from his reverie and, stroking his chin, asked, "How much strength have you recovered now?"
"I’m equivalent to a sixth grade Heaven Rank law..." Wushuang then added quickly, "However, I will soon reach seventh grade Heaven Rank!"
"Hmm." Lin Xun sank into deep thought.
Wushuang looked very nervous, her face pale and her eyes tearful. She looked pitiful, like a prisoner awaiting her sentencing.
Lin Xun couldn't help but laugh. "You're a law spirit, without emotions or wisdom. There's no need to pretend in front of me."
Wushuang whispered, "Master, law spirits can also develop wisdom and emotions. We are far beyond the inanimate plants and trees of this world. I beg for your mercy. When I regain my former strength, I will definitely be of great assistance to you."
She seemed to understand that eating and drinking for free all these years without demonstrating her value would likely cause Lin Xun to feel dissatisfied.
"Don't worry, no one in this world would be willing to refine a law spirit," Lin Xun said casually.
Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief and stuck out her tongue. If Lin Xun didn't know of her background, he would have wondered if Wushuang was truly a law spirit or not.
"What do you think we should do with Little Nether and Little Immortal?" Lin Xun asked.
Little Nether and Little Immortal had both been obtained by him during his time in the Great Thousand Battle Domain. They were the Netherworld law power and the Immortal law power, respectively, and had belonged to the Immortal Martial Epoch.
Over the years, although these two law powers had been nurtured by the Nirvana law power, there was almost no remarkable transformation that had occurred to them. Currently, they were, at most, comparable to a law power at the ninth grade Earth Rank.
Wushuang said, "Master, I can sense that both Little Nether’s and Little Immortal’s origin source powers are gradually recovering. One can evolve into the Netherworld, and the other into an Immortal Realm. This may...be of immeasurable help to you in the future."
"Such as?" Lin Xun asked with interest.
Wushuang explained, "For example, suppressing your enemies in the Netherworld could condemn them to eternal damnation. On the other hand, placing one's friends and family in the Immortal Realm would allow them to avoid disasters. They could cultivate there and even avoid the calamity that will destroy this epoch."
Lin Xun was shocked. "Avoid the calamity that will destroy this epoch?"
"Indeed, both the Netherworld law power and the Immortal law power belong to the Immortal Martial Era, so they have already experienced the Five Dao Decays. Naturally, they won't be affected by this epoch’s destruction."
Wushuang added quickly, "These are just my speculations. Master, if you wish to understand the true secrets of Little Nether and Little Immortal perhaps you can wait until they fully recover. Then you'll know."
Lin Xun nodded. Wushuang's suggestion reminded him of what Chen Linkong had told him when they had left the Fortune Dominion. In a thousand years at most, the calamity targeting this epoch will erupt!
If Little Nether and Little Immortal truly possessed the miraculous powers Wushuang claimed they did, then they would surely prove invaluable in the future. However, for the time being, he could not refine them.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Xun asked with interest, "Wushuang, how do you think I should refine the Nirvana law?"
A law spirit undoubtedly understood law power the best.
"This..." Wushuang hesitated before saying, "Master, the Nirvana law is too mysterious, beyond my comprehension."
Lin Xun sighed softly, "As expected, this is what it means to possess a treasure but not be able to truly obtain it."
Wushuang said crisply, "But it seems to me that you, Master, have already comprehended the secrets of the Nirvana law and have refined an immortal law. Like Shuang'er, you can refine other law powers in the future. I believe this will also enhance your own cultivation."
Lin Xun smiled. "I think so too."
His response seemed to greatly encourage Wushuang. His clear eyes gleamed with joy as he said, "Master, for others, refining a law power might require a great deal of time and effort, but for you, this is simply not a problem."
"Oh?" Lin Xun raised an eyebrow. "Go on."
Wushuang explained, "Master's control of the Nirvana law power is sufficient to suppress and refine all other law powers. Thus, you can obtain the purest law power through the Nirvana law power without having to refine it yourself."
Lin Xun hadn't completely forgotten this, but after hearing Wushuang confirm it, he finally felt certain that this approach was entirely feasible!
"Right now, all we need is more law power," Lin Xun pondered.
"Master, if I return to my former peak, I can help you find more law powers and subdue them," Wushuang interjected with a clear voice.
Lin Xun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely not go without you when I gather law powers."
How could he not tell that Wushuang was concerned about this?
"Then Shuang'er thanks you, Master!" Wushuang's smile was sweet, exceptionally pure, and bright.
...
Next, Lin Xun began to meditate and cultivate. He had no choice but to follow the sect's punishment for him. From now on, for nine years, he would not be able to leave his cave dwelling. However, this was actually a good thing for him.
He had originally planned to retreat for a period of time, not only to cultivate but also to take this opportunity to temper and enhance the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron.
Those who lived in the mountains alone had no concept of the passing of time. Before long, three years had already passed in a flash.
In a cave dwelling, Yuan Changtian awoke from his meditation, and the roaring aura within him gradually subsided. Yuan Xiliu, who had been guarding him on the side, smiled and congratulated him, "Congratulations, Young Master, on reaching the advanced Nirvana Spirit Realm!"
His voice was filled with amazement and relief.
"This is nothing! It’s still a far cry from my eldest brother’s and third older sister’s accomplishments." Yuan Changtian's expression was impassive.
Yuan Xiliu said gently, "Young Master, you are the ninth son of the clan leader. You've only been cultivating for six hundred years, yet you've already achieved your present level of accomplishment. This is far superior to what your eldest brother and third older sister achieved back then."
After a pause, he continued, "Although your eldest brother and third older sister have already reached the Transcendence Stage, with your foundation and talent, you'll undoubtedly catch up to them one day."
Yuan Changtian smiled, but remained silent.
"Young Master, are you planning to participate in the Immortal Dao Battle?" asked Yuan Xiliu.
Yuan Changtian replied without hesitating, "Of course. Before I came to the Origin Sect, my father told me a secret: an unprecedented event will occur in the Ten Directions Demon Realm. It's very likely a complete Divine Rank law will appear!"
Yuan Xiliu exclaimed fiercely, "If that's the case, we'll use all our means to seize it!"
A Divine Rank law! One hadn’t appeared in the Ninth Heaven Domain for ages. If such a treasure truly emerged in the Ten Directions Demon Realm, it would cause a raging fight even among Eternals!
Yuan Xiliu said, "Fortunately, the competition isn't that great. Only the forces of the Four Great Ancestral Courts are participating. With your skills, seizing such an opportunity should be no problem."
"It's hard to say." Yuan Changtian shook his head. "Back when I came to the Origin Sect, there were also other divine sons and maidens from the Ninth Heaven Domain who had entered the Shaman Sect, the Zen Sect, and the Spirit Sect respectively. It's just that we don't know which divine clans these individuals belong to yet."
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Yuan Xiliu's eyes. "Young Master, rest assured. I'll find out everything."
Yuan Changtian nodded, then suddenly asked, "Has Lin Xun been active at all in these past three years?"
Yuan Xiliu shook his head. "He's been very quiet, staying secluded."
Yuan Changtian pondered this and then ordered, "Keep a close eye on him. He's a successor of Fangchun Mountain, and the one who the Lord of Fangchun Mountain had waited an eternity for. He has also inherited Luo Tongtian's innate talent of Grand Abyss Heaven Devourer. He must not be underestimated."
"Young Master, rest assured. According to the countermeasures Fu Wenli and the others have discussed, when the Immortal Dao Battle begins, Lin Xun will also be sent to the Ten Directions Demon Realm." A cold look crossed Yuan Xiliu's eyes as he continued, "By then, it’ll be hard to say whether this boy can return alive from there."
"Both the Shaman Sect and the Zen Sect view him as a thorn in their side. If he were to participate, he would indeed face immeasurable disaster." Yuan Changtian then pondered, "However, we cannot pin all our hopes on others. When the time comes, we may have to trouble you, Old Ancestor, to make the journey in person."
"Young Master, have you agreed to let me take action?" Yuan Xiliu's eyes lit up.
Yuan Changtian shook his head. "No, you simply need to spread the news about Lin Xun to as many of his enemies as possible. Ideally, you should be able to alert an Eternal-level expert to take action. That way, perhaps you can resolve the issue once and for all."
"An Eternal!" Yuan Xiliu asked in disbelief, "Wouldn’t that be a bit of overkill?”
"Old Ancestor, you don't understand. Just do as I say,” Yuan Changtian responded calmly, but did not give an actual explanation.
Yuan Xiliu wasn't annoyed. Although Yuan Changtian addressed him as ‘Old Ancestor,’ in his presence, he had to refer to himself as ‘old slave’ and obey the younger man’s orders.
After all, Yuan Changtian was a divine son! This was a rule that could not be violated within the Divine Yuan Clan.
"Old Ancestor, please step aside. I need to continue my cultivation, refining law power, and strive to reach a state of great perfection before participating in the Immortal Dao Battle,” said Yuan Changtian casually.
"Yes." Yuan Xiliu bowed and turned to leave.
