Space was a very mysterious concept. Although everyone knew what it was, how many people could really say why space existed? More importantly, what supported space?
Just like how a house must have pillars and beams in order to withstand wind and rain, space was the same principle. Space had its own unique supporting material, or it could be said that space had its own concept of support. Once you found this concept and controlled it, you could complete the destruction and reorganization of space at will.
Just like just now, Lu An only had a slight grasp of the ability to peel off space. It couldn't even be considered as destruction, and he hadn't mastered the reorganization at all. If he really mastered the reorganization, after the two spaces were combined, even if the teacup had been split, it would be as good as new. There wouldn't be any cracks at all, as if it had never happened before.
The combination of spaces meant that they were truly glued together.
In the whole book of Qingyuan Gong, there were only two kinds of space manipulation abilities, destruction and reorganization. However, Lu An's understanding of space was somewhat different. He believed that there were more than just these two kinds of space abilities. There was also a powerful space ability, which was teleportation.
Teleportation, from one place to another in an instant, without any time in between. This was something that Lu An had always imagined. However, now he couldn't even do destruction and reorganization, let alone other things. In any case, he had to do these two things well first.
More importantly, Lu An understood a truth. He didn't say that he was invincible after learning the ability to peel off space. He couldn't split a person into two at any time. No matter how strong the opponent was, they wouldn't be his opponent. This was simply impossible. On the contrary, even people with the same strength as him, or even people slightly weaker, could break free from his space restrictions.
The reason was very simple. There was no resistance when there was nothing in the empty space, but if there was something in the space, the power of this thing itself would become Lu An's resistance. In simple terms, if Lu An wanted to split a person with the same strength into two, this person might be injured, but his powerful strength would forcibly pull the space and prevent the space from being peeled off, making Lu An unable to succeed.
Therefore, Qingyuan Gong couldn't become Lu An's main combat power now. It could only be used as a means to catch people off guard. But even so, Lu An was already very happy. At least he could come into contact with a world that others could not. That was enough.
Suddenly, Lu An's body trembled, and his eyes went blank. This was because he suddenly realized that if everything in the world was made up of the same substance, which he called 'spirit', then the force that supported and even formed space should also be 'spirit'. If he could really create the One Law Heavenly Skill, no matter what, he couldn't get around the concept of space. In other words, if he truly grasped the ability to control 'spirits', spatial abilities would also be completely under his control.
Lu An took a deep breath. It seemed that he would have to start from the Space to help with the cultivation of the One Law Heavenly Method.

Montenegrin Empire, Imperial Capital Black Emperor City.
In the Black Emperor City, the famous Yangshan Street, which was famous for its prosperity, had almost been changed by the people of the Black Emperor City to Willow Mountain Street within these seven days. The reason was none other than that the boss who owned half of the street in Yangshan Street had the surname Liu.
The third young master of the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce, Ouyang Yi, was indeed a man of his word. Ten days ago, Ouyang Yi gathered half of the shop owners on Yangshan Street in the afternoon. It could be said that he used both soft and hard methods, but his attitude was especially tough. Under the threat of the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce, these shop owners finally gave up their shops, but everyone received more money in return.
That night, before the sky turned dark, Beauty Yang, who was sitting in the small shop, saw Ouyang Yi appear again with her own eyes. He was holding a thick stack of papers in his hand, which he directly placed on the table beside Beauty Yang, and even made a 'bang' sound.
"From now on, these are the deeds of all the shops on the east side of the street!" Ouyang Yi looked at Liu Yi and said proudly, "Your name is written on the deeds. From now on, this half of the street is yours!"
When so many deeds were slammed on the table, even Liu Yi's heart was heavily shocked. She looked at Ouyang Yi in astonishment.
She guessed that Ouyang Yi might have done something for her, but she did not expect that he would really buy half of the street. It had to be said that she was moved for a moment.
Whether it was because she was moved or not, she was indeed moved. She looked up at Ouyang Yi's arrogant and proud look. She was not stupid. This was the Black Emperor City. Even the four major chambers of commerce would not be able to buy half of the street in half a day so easily.
"How is it? Have you fallen in love with me?" Ouyang Yi looked at Liu Yi's shocked look and said proudly, "Why aren't you separating from your husband and marrying me? I will immediately make you the young madam of the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce!"
"…"
Ouyang Yi's words were like a basin of cold water that poured down on Liu Yi's head. The little bit of feeling she had disappeared without a trace. She did not refuse and kept all the deeds into her ring. She did not even look at them. She just sat on the chair and looked at Ouyang Yi standing in front of her and said, "It's already dark. I'm going to sleep. Third young master, are you going to stay here and not leave? I'm afraid it won't be good for your reputation if word gets out. "
"You?!" When Ouyang Yi heard this, he immediately became angry and said angrily, "You woman, I bought half of the street and gave it to you. Aren't you going to say a word of thanks?"
"Thank you." Liu Yi said.
"…"
Ouyang Yi flung his sleeves and left angrily, leaving Liu Yi and Liu Lan sitting in the small shop. Liu Lan looked at Ouyang Yi's back as he left, then looked at Liu Yi. Her voice even trembled as she said, "How much would it cost to buy this half of the street?"
Liu Yi frowned when she heard this. When she bought the shop, she had asked around. With her current assets, she did not even dare to calculate the cost of buying half of the street. However, no matter what, this half of the street already belonged to her. With this half of the street, there were too many things she could do.
Thus, within the next ten days, Liu Yi hired a large number of people and began to renovate the shops on this half of the street. It was worth mentioning that even the carpenters and blacksmiths in the Black Emperor City were Heavenly Masters. They were just some low level one, level two, and level three Heavenly Masters. However, a Heavenly Master's ability was much stronger than an ordinary person's, and their work efficiency was also very fast. In less than ten days, half of the shops on the street had been refurbished.
And in these ten days, Liu Yi had been preparing for the new Chamber of Commerce. This Chamber of Commerce still used the name she had always used — Alkaid Chamber of Commerce.
However, if one wanted to establish a Chamber of Commerce in the Black Emperor City, especially one that was half a street in size, it was impossible for Liu Yi to achieve it by herself. She couldn't even get the goods that could fill half the street. If she used some junk to make up the numbers, her reputation would plummet. In Liu Yi's opinion, reputation was something that could not be reversed. Once it fell, it could never be saved. Therefore, Liu Yi chose another path, which was to join forces.
In these ten days, because her reputation had risen, and because everyone in the Black Emperor City knew that she was the Third Young Master's sweetheart, many people came to curry favor with her. However, she only saw people who were useful to her. Many of them were shops or Chamber of Commerce that were on the verge of bankruptcy because of poor management. They wanted to find Liu Yi to look for funds, and these people also became the targets of Liu Yi's negotiations.
The content of her negotiation was very simple. The Chamber of Commerce and shops would be under the Alkaid Chamber of Commerce, and all decisions and changes would have to listen to her. Of course, these people were still the bosses, and the profits they earned were split 60-40. The boss would get 60%, and the Alkaid Chamber of Commerce would get 40%.
Of course, no one would be able to accept having 40% of their profits taken away for no reason. After all, they were here to rope in funds, not to teach the Chamber of Commerce and the shops. However, Liu Yi used the rent-free shops as a temptation. In addition to her strong negotiation skills and charisma, the Chamber of Commerce and shops that were at their wits' end all nodded their heads and joined the Alkaid Chamber of Commerce, and began to move in.
Liu Yi stood on top of a pavilion, watching as the carriages continued to move goods into the shops, her beautiful eyes filled with seriousness. Liu Lan, who was at the side, was also looking at everything on the street. She really didn't expect that this was only the eleventh day in the Black Emperor City, and it had already reached such a scale.
Liu Yi turned her head to look at Liu Yi. Although this woman's cultivation talent was average, her business talent was something that she could only look up to. This kind of business mind and negotiation skills was something that she would never be able to learn.
At this moment, there was a knock on the office door. A maid outside said, "President, the Third Young Master of the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce requests an audience."
