Chapter 267: Chapter 239: All 19 Servants Enter the 3rd Realm

Law Stone Ore Veins are divided into a total of nine tiers. Tier One is the lowest, and Tier Nine is the highest. The higher a Law Stone Ore Vein’s tier, the more Law Stones it contains, but the more terrifying the ’Law Realm’ it forms.

Legend says...

A Tier Nine Law Stone Ore Vein is said to have already awakened its own Spirituality, becoming an intelligent life form akin to an extremely special existence.

You could say...

Within a Tier Nine Law Stone Ore Vein, the ’Law Realm’ it forms is a space unto itself, creating an independent Little World. The Law Stone Ore Vein itself is like the ’Celestial Dao’ of this independent Little World, controlling everything within it.

"Alright."

Xu Qing mulled it over after listening to Ye Langtian’s report. "It seems the Blood Demon Sect Cangzhou Chapter’s security is excellent. It’s been over two years, they’ve already finished their exploration and are even preparing to mine this Law Stone Ore Vein, yet the news still hasn’t leaked. No other powers are aware of it."

"Yes."

Ye Langtian nodded. "Because of the ’Blood Demon Cave,’ all members of the Blood Demon Sect are completely loyal, so a leak is impossible."

"In that case, I’ll be the one to spice things up."

Xu Qing continued, "Ye Langtian, find a chance to leak the news about this Law Stone Ore Vein. Make sure the entire Cangzhou Prefecture finds out."

"This..."

Ye Langtian looked troubled. "Master, I’m afraid that won’t be possible. Under orders from the Blood Demon Sect Cangzhou Chapter, I cannot leave this place, so I have no way of leaking this information."

"In fact, I have to be extremely careful just contacting you to avoid exposure. If I were discovered, it would be a disaster."

"You can’t leave."

Xu Qing frowned.

"Yes."

Ye Langtian confirmed with a nod.

"Can’t you contact Liu Ying?"

Xu Qing asked.

"No."

Ye Langtian shook his head. "The Blood Demon Sect Cangzhou Chapter sent Liu Ying away on a mission. Even if I could reach her, she’s not in Cangzhou Prefecture right now."

"I see."

Xu Qing nodded.

"Then I’ll handle it myself."

Xu Qing said.

"Understood."

Ye Langtian slowly nodded. "Master, please be careful."

"Mm."

Xu Qing nodded. "Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing."

HUM!

The next moment.

The connection was severed, and the screen of light vanished without a trace. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Kaya."

Xu Qing called out.

"Master."

Kaya hurried over, stopping in front of Xu Qing.

"Mm."

Xu Qing nodded. "Next, I have a mission for you to carry out. However, your strength is too low; I’m afraid you won’t be able to succeed."

"Currently, out of Wu Yi, Wu Er, Wu San, and Numbers One through Fifteen, who has the most free time?"

"Reporting to Master."

Kaya considered this, then said, "According to your instructions, although their daily tasks aren’t complex—they just use various weapons and equipment every day."

"The shop is guarded daily by the Daoist Soldiers."

"However, their schedules are actually packed solid. That’s the only way to utilize every moment of their day."

Evidently.

For Xu Qing to upgrade his various weapons and equipment, he needed vast amounts of Experience Points. For these items to gain those Experience Points, they had to be ’used’ without interruption every day.

For example.

The Iron Longsword that Xu Qing had upgraded to Level 30 was a perfect example.

It reached that level only because his slaves swung it for long hours every day without rest, using it to the maximum extent the weapon could endure.

This way.

They could achieve tens, hundreds, or even thousands of swings per second.

"I see."

Xu Qing nodded. "Summon them all."

"Yes, Master."

Kaya replied respectfully.

"Master!"

"We greet you, Master!"

"..."

Soon.

Wu Yi, Wu Er, Wu San, Numbers One through Fifteen, and Kaya all gathered. Xu Qing now had nineteen loyal slaves at his side.

Moreover.

They had all consumed Level 20 Celestial Bridge Pills and Level 10 Transcendence Pills, each mastering a Sixth Level True Intent and reaching the state of Ordinary Extraordinary Extreme.

However.

For the task Xu Qing had for them, the strength of an Ordinary Extraordinary Extreme was completely inadequate. They needed to be at least at the ’Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme’ level, or even in the ’Third Realm: Law Realm’.

"Mm."

Xu Qing nodded calmly, his gaze sweeping over the nineteen loyal slaves kneeling before him. He was quite satisfied.

Of course.

This was all thanks to the Celestial Bridge Pills and Transcendence Pills that Ye Langtian had acquired from the Blood Demon Sect, which Xu Qing had then fully upgraded using the power of the Encyclopedia of All Things.

Thus.

That was how Xu Qing was able to command these slaves.

SWOOSH!

Xu Qing waved his right hand.

He took out a jade box, opened it, and revealed pill after pill floating inside.

These were all Celestial Bridge Pills and Transcendence Pills.

However.

These Celestial Bridge Pills had all been upgraded to Level 30, and the Transcendence Pills to Level 20. Each type of elixir was many levels higher than before.

...

[Celestial Bridge Pill Level 30: 0/53,687,091,200 (This is a paradigm-shattering Law Treasure Pill that contains the mysteries of ’Law.’ Consuming this pill allows one to directly master One Hundred and Eight Six-layered True Intentions, break through further to grasp ten percent of the ’Martial Arts Law,’ and step into the ’Third Realm: Law Realm.’ Minimum requirement: Ordinary Extraordinary Extreme. Consuming it otherwise will result in immediate death by bodily explosion.)]

...

[Transcendence Pill Level 20: 0/524,288,000 (This is a paradigm-shattering Law and Deceit Pill that contains the mysteries of ’Law.’ Consuming this pill allows one to directly master One Hundred and Eight Six-layered True Intentions, break through further to grasp ten percent of the ’Mysterious Law,’ and step into the ’Third Realm: Law Realm.’ Minimum requirement: Ordinary Extraordinary Extreme. Consuming it otherwise will result in immediate death by bodily explosion.)]

...

Two types of elixirs.

Of the two,

The Level 1 Celestial Bridge Pill was a First Realm elixir, so it could be upgraded all the way to Level 30. The Level 1 Transcendence Pill, however, was already a Second Realm elixir, so it could only be upgraded to a maximum of Level 20.

However.

The effects of the two elixirs were nearly identical.

After consumption, both allowed one to directly enter the ’Third Realm: Law Realm’ and grasp ten percent of a ’Law.’ The only difference was that the Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill granted mastery over ten percent of the ’Martial Arts Law,’ while the Level 20 Transcendence Pill granted mastery over ten percent of the ’Mysterious Law.’

"These are ’Law Pills.’"

Xu Qing looked at them and stated plainly, "They are the Martial Dao Law Mortal and the Deceitful Path Law Pill. After taking these, you will be able to step directly into the ’Third Realm: Law Realm.’"

"Take them."

With a wave of his right hand, eighteen Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pills and eighteen Level 20 Transcendence Pills flew before Wu Yi, Wu Er, Wu San, and Numbers One through Fifteen.

"Kaya."

Xu Qing then took out two more pills—a Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill and a Level 20 Transcendence Pill—and said in a low voice, "You will take these two as well."

"Through your Cultivation, you have mastered the Celestial Fox Technique. Your Demon Path has led you to the Ordinary Extraordinary Extreme, and you’ve grasped the Sixth Level Charm True Meaning, but you have no method to advance further."

"So, you’ll use these elixirs to advance directly."

"Yes."

Kaya was stunned for a moment, then replied respectfully, "This servant obeys!"

"Good."

Xu Qing nodded in satisfaction.

"We thank you, Master, for the immense grace of this gift!"

"..."

Wu Yi and the others knelt and kowtowed.

BUZZ! BUZZ! BUZZ!!!

The next moment, Kaya, Wu Yi, Wu Er, Wu San, and slaves One through Fifteen took a deep breath. The first pill they consumed was the Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!

And so,

A powerful might erupted from their bodies. The elixir’s energy spread throughout them, flowing and surging as if it had a will of its own, operating like a special Secret Technique to constantly increase their power.

In the blink of an eye,

「One day later.」

One hundred and eight different Sixth Level True Intent Auras materialized around Kaya, Wu Yi, Wu Er, Wu San, and slaves One through Fifteen.

In just one day,

They had successively broken through from Ordinary Extraordinary Extreme, past Elite Extraordinary Extreme and Great Success Extraordinary Extreme, and directly reached the level of Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme.

Then,

「Two more days passed.」

They finally finished absorbing all the medicinal effects and Energy of the Level 30 Celestial Bridge Pill. They broke through the Extreme, comprehending and mastering ten percent of the ’Martial Arts Law’.

Consequently,

As a natural consequence, they stepped into the ’Third Realm: Law Realm’.

Every single one of them had broken through.

Soon,

DONG! DONG! DONG!!!

The Cangzhou Dao Bell in the Cangzhou Prefecture successively sensed the breakthroughs of Xu Qing’s nineteen slaves, all of whom had entered the ’Third Realm: Law Realm’.

Thus,

The Dao Bell began to chime, one toll after another.

The sound echoed in all directions, shaking the entire Cangzhou Prefecture.

All told,

The Dao Bell had tolled nineteen times.

It was utterly shocking.

"This... this..."

"What in the world is happening?"

"Hiss..."

"Nineteen tolls of the Dao Bell."

"It wasn’t a continuous ringing. The tolls were spaced out, one after another. That means... within a single day, nineteen ’Third Realm’ experts have emerged in Cangzhou Prefecture!"

"..."

Shock.

Absolute shock.

The people of Cangzhou Prefecture, along with its many factions and experts, were all profoundly shaken. Within a single day, nineteen cultivators at the Ultimate Extraordinary Extreme had broken through. They had stepped into the ’Third Realm,’ comprehending and mastering a Law, and grasping its Power.

"Not bad."

Xu Qing looked at his nineteen awakened servants, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Stabilize your Cultivation, then consume the Level 20 Transcendence Pills."

"Yes, Master."

"As you command."

"We will obey our Master’s command!"

"..."

The nineteen servants replied in unison.
