"Boom!"

In Tang Wu’s courtyard, Xu Nian clashed fists with the Lei Family Ancestor.

The terrifying power erupted instantly, pushing both of them back.

The Lei Family Ancestor retreated a full ten steps, while Xu Nian was pushed even further, flying twenty zhang before crashing into a stone pillar, which stopped him.

The stone pillar was completely shattered.

This was all thanks to the divine pattern restriction Tang Wu had set up in the courtyard; otherwise, the small courtyard would have been flattened by the terrifying energy impact.

"What kind of fist technique is that? Such strong power, and at the moment of contact, I felt like my strength was being devoured," the Lei Family Ancestor couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

In that punch just now, although he hadn’t used his full strength, he had used at least seventy percent of it.

Even with such power, Xu Nian was still able to almost match him evenly.

"This is a technique I created after achieving the Great Perfection level in the Earth Attribute Law. I call it the Great Void Skill," Xu Nian replied with a smile.

"Great Void Skill?" The Lei Family Ancestor was somewhat puzzled.

How could the Earth Attribute Law be related to the Void Skill?

Xu Nian smiled without explaining.

It was something he had understood later.

After the Six Paths of Reincarnation Law evolved into the Great Void Hole, he conducted further research on that basis.

He eventually transformed the Great Void Hole into the Eye of the Great Void.

Through the Eye of the Great Void, Xu Nian comprehended the Great Void Skill.

In that punch just now, he utilized the power of the Great Void Skill.

This Great Void Skill could convert the enemy’s strength into his own at the moment of collision.

Of course, with Xu Nian’s current power, he could only convert one-tenth of the opponent’s strength.

The opponent would lose one-tenth of their strength, while he would gain one-tenth, effectively making the opponent lose two-tenths in total.

As Xu Nian gained mastery over the Great Void Skill, he would be able to convert even more.

At the very least, Xu Nian discovered that there was currently no power he couldn’t convert.

"I can’t understand your insights more and more. Possessing six law attributes truly makes you unique in this world," the Lei Family Ancestor couldn’t help but remark in admiration.

During this period, Xu Nian constantly sparred with him.

But each time, he used different attribute laws.

The key was that he had reached the Great Perfection level in all five of those attribute laws. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

In the Netherworld, comprehending just two attribute laws was an extremely difficult task.

Let alone six?

"But I still can’t comprehend the Great Tao," Xu Nian said, shaking his head.

For a long while, he had been trying to comprehend the Great Tao, but to no avail.

Comprehending the Great Tao certainly was an exceptionally challenging endeavor.

"If you really understand the Great Tao so quickly, how are we supposed to survive?" the Lei Family Ancestor couldn’t help but respond.

"Senior, how did you comprehend the Great Tao back then?" Xu Nian couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.

"Back then? It was after breaking through to the Divine Realm, nearly a hundred thousand years later, that I finally comprehended it. Which is why I say you mustn’t be too hasty," the Lei Family Ancestor advised.

But Xu Nian shook his head.

He had to speed up; otherwise, he feared he wouldn’t be able to pass the Netherworld God Temple’s assessment.

"If you truly want to comprehend the Wind Attribute Great Tao sooner, I do have a suggestion," Tang Wu, who had been studying the divine patterns, suddenly spoke up.

"Please, tell me, Senior," Xu Nian eagerly asked.

"I focus on the Fire Attribute Great Tao, and Old Man Lei focuses on Thunder. Neither of us can help you, but if you want to comprehend it faster, you can seek out a Divine-level expert who specializes in the Wind Attribute Great Tao. By sparring with them, you can sense their Tao Rhythm, which is much faster than figuring things out on your own," Tang Wu suggested.

"Yes, sparring with a Divine-level expert of the Wind Attribute Great Tao," Xu Nian’s eyes lit up immediately.

Why hadn’t he thought of this?

If he could spar with a Divine-level expert of the Wind Attribute Great Tao, he would definitely gain a clearer understanding.

But where could he find such an expert?

"As for Divine-level experts of the Wind Attribute, I remember the director of the Moyang Sword Academy is one, and there’s also that old guy from the Chaoyang Sect. If you want to spar, you can seek out these two," Tang Wu suggested.

"Moyang Sword Academy? Chaoyang Sect?" Xu Nian pondered thoughtfully.

The Chaoyang Sect had a past grudge with him, as he had previously killed a disciple and an elder of theirs.

They were likely still searching for him.

As for the director of the Moyang Sword Academy, he might just give it a try.

"Senior, I would like to visit the director of the Moyang Sword Academy. Could you perhaps introduce me?" Xu Nian asked.

"The director of the Moyang Sword Academy? Indeed, I know him. Alright, I’ll accompany you for a visit to the Moyang Sword Academy," Tang Wu agreed.

"Haha, then I’ll join for the excitement," the Lei Family Ancestor laughed.

Xu Nian smiled, having two Divine-level experts to help introduce him.

Surely, the director of the Moyang Sword Academy would give them face.

Otherwise, if he went alone, he probably wouldn’t even get a meeting.

Mu Yuqing was from the Moyang Sword Academy—Xu Nian wondered if he would see her.

With this in mind, Xu Nian felt a sliver of anticipation.

But he also knew that, for now, being with Mu Yuqing was impossible.

Mu Yuqing would eventually return to the Divine World, and her identity as a member of the Ancient Divine Clan would certainly restrict her.

Being together with her wouldn’t be an easy task.

Thus, Xu Nian and his companions set off for the Moyang Sword Academy.

The Moyang Sword Academy was the foremost power in Qing State, though it wasn’t located in Tianbei City.

Rather, it lay on a massive peak several thousand li from Tianbei City.

With an instant teleportation, Xu Nian and his two companions arrived at the gates of the Moyang Sword Academy.

"Who are you?" the gate-guarding disciple of the Moyang Sword Academy immediately questioned.

"We’re here to visit your director. Here is our visiting card," Tang Wu presented the card.

The gate-guarding disciple took a look, then said to Xu Nian and his companions, "Please wait here, and I’ll inform the director."

Tang Wu waved it off, unconcerned.

Soon, the gate-guarding disciple returned, looking at Tang Wu with increased respect.

"Please follow me; the director has asked me to bring you to him," the gate-guarding disciple said respectfully.

He then led Xu Nian and his companions towards the mountaintop of the Moyang Sword Academy.

They finally stopped in front of the highest palace in the academy.

"The director is inside. I can only escort you this far. Please proceed on your own," the gate-guarding disciple instructed.

After that, he bowed and took his leave.

So Xu Nian and his companions had to proceed into the hall themselves.

"Haha, junior brother, I didn’t expect you to come visit me today."

Before they even entered, Xu Nian and the others heard an exuberant voice.

They entered to see an old man with graying hair standing inside the hall.

Junior brother?

Xu Nian was astonished.

Was Tang Wu actually the junior of the Moyang Sword Academy’s director?
