A dazzling purple light suddenly burst forth.
Under four pairs of eyes brimming with anticipation, Luo Xiu finally opened the last Purple Gold Box.
As the purple light faded, Luo Xiu couldn't help but be stunned.
Inside the tenth Purple Gold Box was actually a tile!
Hua Muyan asked, "Is this a piece of a Glazed Tile?"
Filled with doubt, Luo Xiu reached out to pick up the tile.
No sooner had he touched it than lightning burst from the Glazed Tile, electric serpents writhing and hissing across its surface!
"Run!" Master Ping suddenly cried out, instantly dodging to a distant spot.
However, Luo Xiu, holding the tile, was frozen in place as if petrified, smoke rising from his body.
A gentle breeze suddenly blew by. In an instant, Luo Xiu's clothes disintegrated into tatters and drifted to the ground. Strangely, Luo Xiu himself was completely unhard, not even a single hair out of place.
By then, Master Ping had already sensed the aura from the tile and said excitedly, "Kid, this is the real treasure!"
"I can feel the Law's Breath in it, and it just so happens to be a Lightning Principle that perfectly suits you!"
"That's precisely why it reacted with your Thunder Path Physique when you touched it!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiu's eyes brightened. "It seems this really is a treasure."
With a deep breath, Master Ping tried to suppress his excitent. "In any case, this is a Lightning Principle. You lad, must comprehend it well!"
He added, "A Law is different from Divine Skills and Taoist Arts; it doesn't have a specific form. You can only perceive the Power of Laws from it and then define this Law based on your own understanding."
"This is what cultivators often refer to as comprehending the profound mysteries."
"Finally, you must fuse it within yourself and evolve it into a Taoist Art, giving it a specific form and shape."
"Only then will you truly master it and possess it!"
Luo Xiu nodded slightly, staring at the Glazed Tile in his hand, then walked naked toward the Hundred Herbs Garden.
He hadn't gone far when he suddenly stopped. With a wave of his hand, a pile of Fierce Beast carcasses appeared out of thin air in an open area.
"Yan'er, please take care of these carcasses."
"Oh, got it. But Master, your clothes…"
Lao Ba shook his head curiously and looked toward Master Ping. "Do you really think the Crown Prince can comprehend the Power of Laws?"
Master Ping smiled. "I believe he can. We absolutely must not disturb him right now."
Black Fatty said proudly, "I heard Your Majesty say that even among the Heavenly Emperors at the Cosmic Great Wall, very few possess the Power of Laws."
"And even for those who do, their comprehension is incomplete, making their power weaker than so Divine Skills."
"I never thought the Crown Prince would soon possess one. I believe that with the Crown Prince's talent for the Ultimate Boundary lting Path, he will definitely be able to comprehend a complete Power of Laws!"
「Ti flowed like water.」
Luo Xiu stayed in the Hundred Herbs Garden for a full ten days.
After ten days, a loud boom woke Hua Muyan and the others from their ditation. Rushing to the Hundred Herbs Garden, they saw only a giant Thunder Ball.
Countless strands of immortal lightning wove themselves into a Thunder Ball, enveloping Luo Xiu within. From afar, it looked like a cocoon.
And Luo Xiu was the butterfly about to erge!
"What the heck is that?" Lao Ba rubbed his eyes with his wings. "Why is this lightning almost transparent?"
Black Fatty said, "Not just transparent, it also seems solid. If I had to describe it… it's a bit like glass."
"No," Master Ping laughed. "It's not glass, but glazed tile."
Hua Muyan, solely concerned for Luo Xiu's safety, was about to walk over but was held back by Master Ping.
"Flower Demon, if you go over now, I'm afraid even your Mystic Ribbon Treasure Garnt wouldn't be able to protect you."
"You must understand this is no ordinary lightning, but the Power of Laws."
Hua Muyan's beautiful eyes trembled slightly. "Is it that terrifying?"
Master Ping smiled. "None of you have reached that level yet, so naturally, you can't sense the Law's Breath."
Looking around, Master Ping continued, "At this mont, the entire Hundred Herbs Garden is filled with an indescribable aura of destruction… This must be the Lightning Principle Luo Xiu comprehended from that glazed tile."
Black Fatty was sowhat confused. "Can you be more clear? I don't think I understand."
Master Ping spoke seriously, "In short, this kid Luo Xiu has comprehended the power of the Lightning Principle and defined it as 'Destruction'."
Just then, the Thunder Cocoon in front of them suddenly burst open.
In an instant, countless glowing lightning strands filled the sky above the Hundred Herbs Garden, blooming like resplendent fireworks, beautiful as a dream.
After a while, Luo Xiu landed slowly, his body bare. The countless lightning strands quickly congregated and drilled into his back, solidifying into a pair of wings.
Hua Muyan focused her gaze, her beautiful eyes trembling lightly. "So beautiful."
Those wings were not made of flesh, bone, and feathers. They seed to be pieced together from countless transparent, glazed pieces of material. Yet, they remained pliable, as exquisite as a work of art—so dreamlike and beautiful they seed unreal.
A short while later, Luo Xiu opened his eyes. With just one step, he appeared before Hua Muyan as if he had teleported.
Master Ping asked with a smile, "Kid, how is it?"
Luo Xiu replied, "I call it Glazed Thunder. These wings are sothing I evolved from the Lightning Principle."
Lao Ba laughed heartily. "Then let's na them the 'Overbearing Thunder Wings'!"
Luo Xiu was speechless. That's so damn cringe.
Hua Muyan thought for a mont, then suggested, "How about calling them the 'Destructive Thunder Wings'?"
Luo Xiu waved his hand. "Forget it, I can't be bothered to think of a na. We'll just call them that."
Thus, the wings ca to be called the "Destructive Thunder Wings."
Lao Ba sighed, speaking with heartfelt pain, "The Crown Prince really does choose beauties over bros!"
Over the next two days, Luo Xiu forced Master Ping, Lao Ba, and Black Fatty into sparring sessions all day long. This was to consolidate the Lightning Principle he had just comprehended.
Then, Luo Xiu spent another three days planning to refine a potent poison. He used the deadly poison extracted from the Blue Blood Poisonous Ganoderma, combined with the inner core and Treasured Blood of a Fla Demon Scorpion, as well as dozens of Spiritual dicines he had collected from Ghost Valley Mountain.
「That day.」
In the Hundred Herbs Garden, Hua Muyan watched as Luo Xiu fiddled with the dicinal ingredients and approached him curiously.
"Master, what exactly is this poison? It's been three days and it's still not finished. It slls rather nice, though."
Luo Xiu looked at the blue paste in the cauldron and smiled. "Once it cools and solidifies, I just need to roll it into pills. This is one of Ghost Valley's top-tier concealed poison weapons, nad 'Cinnabar Moles'."
"Infuse it with your Spiritual Power and flick it. Even an Emperor Realm Expert will be gravely injured, if not killed, upon being struck."
At this mont, Master Ping walked over. "I'll be damned. Why are you becoming a Poison Master instead of being a proper Swordsman?"
Before Luo Xiu could reply, Lao Ba, who was approaching, laughed. "What do you know, Master Ping? A Swordsman who can't concoct poisons isn't a good Daoist."
"I know about Cinnabar Moles! It's one of Ghost Valley's ultimate weapons. It'll be perfect for ambushing people later—a guaranteed hit every ti!"
Luo Xiu smiled. "Speaking of which, it's about ti I went to the twelfth layer to find the Celestial Nourishing Grass."
Master Ping shrugged. "Then you'll have to go by yourself. The Flower Demon and I are still on the first layer. We've tested twice recently but haven't reached Level 4 in the Fusion Path."
"Ah, damn it, why is it so hard?"
Hearing this, Luo Xiu was surprised. "With your talents, you two can't even reach Level 4 in the Fusion Path?"
Master Ping pursed his lips. "You think it's easy? I used to be a bottle; this is my first ti being human. If I had known being a human cultivator was this hard, I'd have happily remained a bottle!"
Luo Xiu asked, "What about Yan'er?"
Hua Muyan replied with a sweet smile, "I'm different from Master Ping. I can actually test beyond Level 4 in the Fusion Path, but right now, I need to focus on absorbing the Laurel Spirit Wood."
Luo Xiu nodded and asked, "By the way, where's Black Fatty?"
Master Ping looked up at the giant sphere floating above the Land of Lawlessness. "That guy went to the Shanhai Territory. Said the world is a big place and he's gone to recruit a gang of followers."
Luo Xiu said, "Lao Ba, go get Black Fatty. We're going to the Divine Oracle Cave Heaven."
"Alright! Finally, I can go out and live it up!"
