Different routes lead to the same destination
Eternal Ice Plains.
This was how law cultivation worked. Once you crossed the threshold, the rest would follow naturally. The vast majority of Law Adepts would fall before the threshold, but with Yuhua's help, Xia Fei managed to cross the first important hurdle of becoming a Law Adept, level 6. After that, his cultivation could not be stopped, and in a short week, he had already crossed level 7 and 8.
Old Sable of the Demon Race naturally saw all of this, and he was just as shocked as everyone else. It was as if Xia Fei's ascension was like a geyser that no one could stop!
As the Immortal Demon King that had existed for millions of years, Old Sable's experience was naturally extraordinary. Of course, he had seen geniuses before, and he had also seen people who could level up as easily as chopping vegetables, but Xia Fei's ability to improve by leaps and bounds at any time and place still left him shocked!
Xia Fei lit a cigarette. The injuries he had sustained over the past few days had already healed, and the increase in his rank had filled his body with energy, enough to offset all the exhaustion from his crazy cultivation.
"Xia Fei," Old Sable called Xia Fei's name.
Is something the matter? Xia Fei turned around and asked.
"Your cultivation speed has always been this fast?"
Xia Fei shook his head. "Due to the damage to my brain region, I've been relying on drugs to improve myself, but drugs ultimately have their limits. I stopped at the Legendary rank for three years, and I didn't make any progress for three whole years until my brain region was repaired."
Old Black chuckled. "I'm sure you haven't stopped cultivating in the past three years, right?"
Xia Fei nodded. "Never slacked off."
Old Sable said, "So that's how it is. Although your brain region is damaged, you have never given up on cultivation. Thus, once your brain region is repaired, the accumulated cultivation will allow you to advance twice as fast. In other words, you are now making up for the cultivation that you have not advanced for three years. If I'm not wrong, the three years of accumulation will be used up after you reach the level of a Law Sovereign, and the speed of your advancement will also slow down."
Xia Fei somewhat doubtfully asked, "I've always been cultivating abilities. What does that have to do with Law?"
Old Sable laughed. "It seems that your understanding of the Law circle is still too lacking. Have you heard of different paths leading to the same destination?"
Xia Fei furrowed his brows. What does that mean?
"Let's take life as an example. Regardless of whether your life is exciting or dull, rich or poor, you will eventually die. The process is different, but the result is the same. This is the eternal law of the universe."
"It's the same with cultivation. Whether you start off by cultivating the laws, or start by cultivating your special abilities before switching to cultivating the laws, the final destination is the same, and that is to possess supreme power."
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. Old Sable's words seemed to make a lot of sense. Xia Fei had always felt that innate abilities were the strongest power in the universe, but it was only when he came to the Law Realm that he realized that even if he did not have an ability, he could still be very powerful as long as he had an innate law ability, perhaps even more powerful.
"The Law Realm doesn't exist in the first place, and it was created by a group of ability users. They walked the same path as you, first cultivating their abilities, and later comprehending the power of law while cultivating their abilities. From this point, you can see that spending a lot of effort on learning abilities is your advantage. If you were born in the Law Realm, then your cultivation would start from the study of law, and you wouldn't have a foundation in your abilities."
"Your ability is speed. This is your Innate Rule."
"Innate Talent Law? Is the speed ability also a kind of law? "Xia Fei curiously asked.
"Of course. Otherwise, what do you think will happen when you cultivate your speed ability to the end?"
"The speed of light," Xia Fei sternly said. "You'll be as fast as light!"
Old Sable shook his head. "Wrong! Speed ability reaching the Immortal rank is the end. At that point, no matter how many medicines you take, no matter how hard your cultivation, it will all stagnate unless you switch to learning the Law of Speed! "
Xia Fei was enlightened. It was no wonder the experts in the Alliance always said that Immortal rank was the end of everything. It turned out that special ability cultivation also had an end. Unless one went to learn law, they would be stuck at the same spot for the rest of their lives!
"In the past, even the Law Realm required the younger generation of the family to first cultivate their ability to the Immortal rank before they could learn the power of law. Alas, the people in the circle are getting more and more impatient. They all know that directly learning law is faster, and no one is willing to spend decades or even centuries cultivating their ability."
Xia Fei smiled. "I've learned a lot from you. Thank you."
His words were very sincere, and Old Sable chuckled. "If you have the patience, it's best if you cultivate your speed ability to the end and then start learning the Law of Speed. You'll reap unexpected rewards."
Xia Fei frowned. "But I'm already learning the Law of Space and the Law of Energy Purification. My main ability is speed, and my secondary ability is mental control. If I cultivate so many things at the same time, won't I be under a lot of pressure?"
This was not everything. Xia Fei had not even talked about the Law of Primal Chaos. Just thinking about it gave Xia Fei a headache. There were too many things he had to learn, and there was not enough time. He wished he had forty-eight or even seventy-two hours a day.
Old Sable said, "Two abilities and two laws. For a new Law Warrior, it's truly hard, but the universe is fair. The more you put in, the more you'll get in return.
"That fellow outside the Law of Light is a level 4 Law Emperor. Why didn't he kill you? You should know that there's a gap of several levels between the two of you, and it's all because you're learning so many things that you have a combat strength that surpasses warriors of the same level. "
Xia Fei nodded. Logically speaking, with such a large gap in level, he should not have been able to fight back. He had only managed to escape because of the combination of his speed ability, Crafty Approach, Law of Space, and Law of Primal Chaos.
Just one of them might not be that powerful, but when used together, they could display an unimaginable combat strength.
"Time!" Old Sable sternly said. "For a Law Warrior, besides energy, what they need the most is time. Only by living longer than others, cultivating longer than others, and working harder can they reach the highest heights!
"Having a complicated learning system is your advantage, but having a short lifespan is your enemy. Honestly, there aren't many people in the Law Realm who can advance on so many paths at the same time. It might make you very powerful in the end, but you'll first have to resolve the problem of having a limited lifespan.
"Once you've cultivated your law to a certain level, your lifespan will be extended accordingly, even to the point of eternal immortality, but that's very difficult. If you study the Law of Life, you'll get twice the result with half the effort."
After all this talk, Old Sable finally got to the main point. All the foreshadowing had been to remind Xia Fei. "I, Old Sable, have the Law of Life. Do you want to learn it? Then come and beg me. "
How could Xia Fei not know what Old Sable was thinking? He calmly sat on the ground and placed a grade 4 Origin Crystal on the white jade ape. It was all thanks to this little thing that could concentrate energy that Xia Fei had been able to advance two levels in seven days. Now, Xia Fei was prepared to continue experimenting with the Law of Energy Purification.
Always cultivating the same way would make his mind extremely tired, so switching to a suitable cultivation mode was a form of relaxation for Xia Fei.
Old Sable coldly snorted. "Still not going to beg me? I don't believe that even the Law of Life can't tempt you! "
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Old Sable had already sufficiently explained the value of his existence, yet Xia Fei still remained unmoved. This made him so angry that he simply turned around and no longer looked at Xia Fei.
…
That mysterious energy thread in his seventh brain region slowly became more obedient, and Xia Fei began to get more and more used to this precise control. Imperceptibly, his grasp of energy rapidly increased as well.
* Pa! *
The complicated and ever-changing pattern of the Law of Energy Purification finally took shape, and a numbing sensation spread through Xia Fei's entire body as if every cell in his body was in a state of euphoria.
Xia Fei did not stop. The most important thing after taking shape was to consolidate it, and he spent an entire day revising it.
When he opened his eyes again, Xia Fei had a smile on his face.
In truth, the Law of Elementary Energy Purification was not very useful to Xia Fei, for very few people in the Law Realm would use red Elementary Origin Crystals. Even if Xia Fei had the ability to purify Elementary Origin Crystals, it would not bring him any benefits.
However, this process was also a learning process. To Xia Fei, the most important thing was to grasp the technique. After going through many detours and setbacks, Xia Fei gradually began to understand the true essence of the Law of Energy Purification.
Crossing the river by feeling the stones was always difficult, but once he truly made it, he would gain a deeper understanding than others.
"Your cultivation method is very strange," Old Sable said doubtfully. "Who cultivates the Law of Energy Purification like this? Whose technique is this? "
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. "Is it wrong? I figured it out myself. "
Old Sable was shocked. "What?! You don't have a master and relied on your own cultivation to learn the Law of Energy Purification?! "
Xia Fei nodded, not confirming or denying it.
"Impossible! Aside from having an innate control over Origin Energy, Energy Masters also need to rely on the teachings of their masters. How could you become an Energy Master by yourself?! "
Facts spoke louder than words. No matter how shocked Old Sable was, it was true that Xia Fei had completed the first stage of the Law of Energy Purification, and he had done it right in front of his eyes!
"Heavens! He actually managed to cultivate the Law of Energy Purification on his own?! "Old Sable looked at Xia Fei as if he was looking at a monster, his shock unparalleled.
"Why does the Law of Energy Purification have to rely on a master? Whose rule is that? " Xia Fei asked nonchalantly. What he hated the most in this life were all sorts of rules, and he never liked any.
Old Sable pursed his lips. "The Law of Energy Purification is very difficult to cultivate. Under normal circumstances, it requires the assistance of a high-level Energy Master, or else it'll be very difficult to succeed.
"That's why it's very important for an Energy Master to have a master. Unless the master is willing to help you raise your rank, you won't be able to advance by relying on your own cultivation. Having a good master who is willing to help you is the only way to become an Energy Master!"
At this point, Old Sable suddenly let out a self-deprecating laugh. "Honestly, I've lived for so long, and this is the first time I've seen someone become an Energy Master without relying on a master. Xia Fei, you've really surprised me."
Xia Fei shrugged. It was no wonder it was so difficult for him to cultivate the Law of Energy Purification. It turned out that he had no one to help him.
Xia Fei did not mind the hardships he had gone through, for he did not like being controlled by others, having to look at his master's face for everything. He would only advance if he allowed him to advance, and Xia Fei absolutely did not like that kind of life.
Regardless, Xia Fei had finally succeeded. This was the most important thing. He was now a qualified Energy Master. Though his rank was still very low, he was at least on this path.
Putting Furball on his shoulder, Xia Fei walked toward the outer perimeter of the Law of Light.
