For example, at this moment, Ding Ning finally understood why he had the intuition that he would regret breaking through to the Godly State in his dream.
Because the most basic condition for a supreme level cultivator to break through was to understand at least nine laws. If he did not achieve this most basic condition and broke through to the Godly State, then sorry, he would immediately be kicked out of the group of supreme level cultivators, and would never have the combat power of the supreme level again.
"What a scam."
Ding Ning looked up and sighed, speechless.
Damn, nine laws, and that was the most basic condition. He did not have to do anything else in the future. If he was not understanding the laws, then he was on the path to understanding the laws. Couldn't they just give him some leisure time?
Of course, he also faced another choice, and that was to inherit the Human Emperor's position. The number of laws a Human Emperor could understand was at least eight hundred, if not a thousand. What was a mere nine laws to him? With the laws understood by the previous Human Emperor, it was enough for him to easily enter the Godly State, and even reach the Soul Formation stage was not impossible.
However, this shortcut also had a huge drawback. Once he became the Human Emperor, he would be recognized and protected by the Heavenly Dao. He could not easily leave the Three Realms. Once he left the Three Realms, the Heavenly Dao would immediately deprive him of all his understanding of the laws.
This made him feel like he was selling himself to the Heavenly Dao. Once he left the Three Realms, he would be punished for breaking the contract and be deprived of everything. This was something he could not accept.
He had always liked to live a simple life. In the past, he might have accepted the position of Human Emperor without hesitation. But after learning that Mie was his son, and that there was a possibility that some unknown being had schemed against them and put them in danger, he made up his mind to leave the Three Realms. Even if he had to travel through the heavens and realms, he must find them.
Even though he knew that his strength was far inferior to his son, this was a responsibility that a man should bear, and he would never shirk from it.
Most importantly, the Human Emperor walked the Dao of the mortal world. Although it overlapped with his Dao of Medicine, it was not the Dao he wanted to walk.
Therefore, without any hesitation, he chose to give up the position of Human Emperor that was within his grasp. He sealed the Human Emperor's Crown and planned to choose a suitable person to inherit the Human Emperor's legacy.
In fact, he had always been very smart. It was not that he did not understand the Mountain River Tortoise's subtle hint. The person who pulled him into the dream and schemed against him was very likely his son Mie.
But in this world, there were always some things that couldn't be abandoned, such as love, friendship, and — blood kinship.
Subconsciously, he didn't want to believe that Mie had planned all of this. Even so, he believed that Mie must have his own difficulties.
After all, as a father, he owed too much to Li and Mie Niang. Even if he had no choice, as a husband and father, not protecting them was his dereliction of duty. He did not have the habit of shirking responsibility.
Therefore, he had to improve his strength as soon as possible, get out of the Three Realms, and find Mie to ask him what was going on.
After making his decision, Ding Ning quickly threw away all stray thoughts and started to take inventory of what truly belonged to him.
Up until now, he had only truly comprehended two complete laws. One was the Chaos Law, and the other was the Space Law.
These two Totem Laws were comprehended by chance and coincidence. Of the Nine Great Totem Laws he had enlightened, none of them were completely comprehended. He couldn't help but feel a strong sense of irony.
Should he blame others? Of course, he couldn't. He could only blame himself for relying on the convenience of the totem and becoming more and more lazy. He didn't put any effort into improving his cultivation.
"From today onwards, I have to work hard to improve my strength. Li, Mie, wait for me. Soon, I will find you. I promise that whoever dares to hurt you, no matter who it is, I will make them repent for what they have done."
Ding Ning's eyes flashed with determination as he muttered to himself, as if he was making a vow.
He stretched out his hand and pointed at the void. With a loud boom, the space exploded. Destructive waves of air surged, turning everything in their path into nothingness. But the strange thing was that the explosion was limited to a radius of three meters from the center of the explosion. Beyond three meters, the space was as calm as before, unaffected.
Ding Ning quietly stared at the area where the space had exploded. Three minutes later, the aftermath of the explosion dissipated, and the crack in the space slowly closed up. It gradually calmed down, as if nothing had happened, and it was no different from the surrounding space.
"Sure enough, my guess was right. Although the space nodes that are not critical can be destroyed, they have the ability to repair themselves. As long as this damage is controlled within a controllable range, it won't cause any harm to this world, and it won't touch the bottom line of the Heavenly Dao."
Ding Ning nodded with satisfaction. There was a flash of excitement between his brows, and he softly murmured to himself, "With this trump card with terrifying destructive power, even an expert at the peak of the Divine Transformation Stage will die if he is caught off guard. This move shall be called — Void Explosion."
"Huh!"
Just as Ding Ning was feeling happy that he had comprehended a space magic, he suddenly felt a faint, subtle fluctuation in the space that had just exploded. He couldn't help but look over in surprise.
Rip!
There was a sound like cloth being torn, and a huge crack in the space that had just exploded suddenly appeared.
A strange creature that Ding Ning had never seen before drilled out of the crack and fell to the ground with a thud. It sprawled out like a human and patted its chest with its two front hooves that were burning with red flames. It actually cried with joy and said, "Oh my god, I'm finally out. It's been so many years, I almost can't remember clearly."
Then, under Ding Ning's dumbfounded gaze, it scolded loudly, "Wan Tusheng, you motherf * cking old b * stard, you imprisoned me for so many years, and you didn't expect me to escape, did you? Just you wait, I'll settle this score with you."
Ding Ning's heart felt cold as he listened on the side. He felt as if he had inadvertently caused a great disaster and released a terrifying monster.
The appearance of the monster was somewhat similar to that of a horse. Its whole body was covered with shiny black scales, and it looked extremely ferocious. However, there was a jade-like white horn on its head, emitting a holy light. Its four hooves were orange, and they were constantly burning with a strange orange flame.
Although he didn't know what this monster was, and it seemed to be covered with cuts and bruises, with many of its black scales falling off. It seemed to be severely injured, but the aura it unintentionally emitted was much stronger than that of the gray shadow.
Half-step Immortal Emperor? No, this monster was at least the Immortal Heavenly Emperor. It might even be an Immortal Emperor or even an Immortal Heavenly Sovereign. This made him groan inwardly. He was just testing out the spatial mystic art he had just learned. Why did he have to release such a monster? How unlucky.
"Hey, who are you? Are you Wan Tusheng's henchman? "
The monster squinted its eyes contentedly and breathed in the free air. Suddenly, it glanced out of the corner of its eye and saw that there was a person beside it. It immediately got up and stood on its hind legs, staring fiercely at Ding Ning with a pair of big eyes that were like copper bells.
Ding Ning felt his scalp tingle. This monster was really too terrifying, and he couldn't contend with it at all. He could only put on a bitter face and pretend to be weak. "Senior, I don't even know who Wan Tusheng is. How could I be his henchman?"
The monster stretched out its front right hoof and scratched its head like a human. It suddenly said, "That's right. You are so weak. How could that old guy Wan Tusheng have a henchman like you?"
The corner of Ding Ning's mouth twitched. "Damn it, I was despised by this monster. Well, I don't mind being despised, as long as I don't get killed by Wan Tusheng's lackey."
Maybe because Ding Ning was really too weak, the monster didn't take him seriously at all. It sat on the ground again and lay down on its back. It even crossed its legs, squinted its eyes and asked happily, "Little guy, tell me, what era is it now?"
Seeing that this monster didn't seem to be as ferocious as its appearance, Ding Ning felt a little relieved and hurriedly answered, "It's a technological civilization now …"
"Wait, don't tell me about a technological civilization first. Let me ask you, boy, how long has it been since ancient times?"
The monster was confused. It interrupted impatiently and asked the question that it was most concerned about.
"Ancient times?"
Ding Ning opened his mouth wide in shock. Was this monster a creature from ancient times? How many years would it have lived for?
"Well, in ancient times, I was tricked into this Tomb of Gods by that f * cking Wan Tusheng. He attacked me when I was unprepared and banished me to the void turbulence to imprison me. How long has it been since ancient times?"
The monster said with a resentful face. At the mention of Wan Tusheng, it gnashed its teeth in hatred.
"Gulp."
Ding Ning swallowed his saliva and couldn't help but feel nervous.
He wasn't someone who hadn't seen the world. He had even seen Dao Master level experts, let alone a monster that was suspected to be at the Immortal Heavenly Master level.
However, one mustn't forget that he had seen those experts after transmigrating or being pulled into a dream. This was the first time he had met a true Immortal level expert on Earth.
Who on Earth could fight against such an expert? If something went wrong, the entire world might be destroyed. How could he not be scared?
"Senior, ancient times are too far away. As there are no historical records, it's impossible to calculate how many years have passed. But a conservative estimate is at least tens of thousands of years."
Ding Ning decided to feign civility first and figure out the details of this monster before thinking of a way to deal with it. Otherwise, if he directly angered it, who knew what terrible things it would do.
"Tens of thousands of years have passed?"
The monster's expression suddenly became sad. It muttered to itself in a daze, "Ying 'er, it's only tens of thousands of years. You must still be alive. But, where are you now?"
Ding Ning's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Ying 'er was the monster's lover. If that was the case, it seemed that things hadn't reached the worst stage yet. After all, no matter what kind of creature it was, as long as it had something in its heart, it wouldn't kill indiscriminately and cause misery to the people.
"Senior, I wonder what does Senior Ying 'er look like? Although I'm very weak, I'm quite familiar with her. If you need, I can help you find out the whereabouts of Senior Ying 'er, "Ding Ning hurriedly volunteered.
Ding Ning hurriedly volunteered. He also wanted to win the monster's favor. If he could get its gratitude, at least it would not start a massacre.
"You?"
The monster glanced at him, its eyes flickering with interest. Then, it opened its mouth and spat out an orange-yellow flame, which actually condensed into a portrait in the air.
In the portrait was a monster that looked similar to this monster, but its figure was slightly more slender than the monster's. It should be a female, and its four hooves were bright red, burning with bright red flames.
"Red Lotus Karmic Fire?"
Ding Ning cried out involuntarily. Although he had never seen this female monster, he couldn't be more familiar with that bright red flame. It was clearly the Red Lotus Karmic Fire of his Tri-colored Fire.
