Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!

Chapter 43 - 43 Indeed There is a Calamity i



Li Cheng exerted his full power to activate forty strands of Time Law, and an astonishing scene occurred!

As the Thunderfire Tribulation roared toward Li Cheng, a hundred meters above him, it seemed to encounter some obstruction and suddenly slowed down!

With the front impeded and the Tribulation Thunder from behind not ceasing, in an instant, the pouring Thunderfire Tribulation was forcibly blocked into an upside-down ‘mushroom’ shape of lightning!

The entire mushroom lightning slowly fell toward Li Cheng, and compared to the lightning speed before, it was practically at a snail’s pace.

“What kind of technique is this?” Everyone was dumbfounded, staring at the mushroom-shaped Tribulation Thunder slowly descending.

Mu Xingzhi’s eyelids twitched, and he exclaimed, “Time!”

“Junior Uncle has changed the flow of time in that area, and he himself is unaffected!”

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gazes toward Mu Xingzhi, the looks in their eyes clearly asking, how do you know?

“I was present during one of Junior Uncle’s moments of enlightenment, and 1 personally witnessed the plants outside his courtyard being affected by the flow of time!” Mu Xingzhi explained.

The others quickly turned their attention to Li Cheng, and Bai Tieyi said, “To be able to affect the flow of time, does he possess the Universe Mystery Stone, or has he comprehended the Time Law?”

“Probably… the Law!” the Sect Master murmured with narrowed eyes.

At those words, everyone was left speechless, feeling their throats turn incredibly dry, even forgetting to breathe for a moment.

“No need to be shocked. In a state of enlightenment, achieving Unity of Heaven and Man, it is possible to touch upon the Laws, and according to what Mu Xingzhi said, Li Cheng has evidently had more than one enlightenment, so, comprehending the Law is also possible.”

“Moreover, he can even affect the Tribulation Thunder, which mere rules cannot do. I fear only the Laws can.”

The Sect Master’s words made everyone gasp in astonishment; they suddenly suspected that Li Cheng might have comprehended not only the Time Law but also the Rule of Fire, right?

Otherwise, how could his True Fire, his Spiritual Fire, be so terrifying?

“If that’s the case, then he must ascend to the Immortal World as soon as possible. Given time, he will surely become a peerless powerhouse, which would be a great blessing for our Heavenly Mechanism Sect!” Bai Tieyi said. This statement was agreed upon by everyone!

The mushroom lightning slowly descended, and when it touched Li Cheng, he had already refined most of the Tribulation Thunder within him and didn’t hesitate to continue absorbing the Thunderfire Tribulation!

But after only absorbing a part, he could no longer maintain the operation of the Time Law and was immediately submerged by the Tribulation Thunder.

The crackling sounds continued non-stop, with numerous sparks spreading into the group of Responding to Calamity Pills, but no one was concerned about the pills, as their focus was all on Li Cheng!

Li Cheng’s clothes were torn, and his body, as strong as a semi-Immortal Artefact, now had countless cracks on it, like a shattered porcelain vase!

Everyone’s hearts were in their throats—Li Cheng had played too hard!

It was clear he had absorbed too much Tribulation Thunder, couldn’t refine it quickly enough, and was about to burst!

“Join me in making a move to help him share some of the Tribulation Thunder!” the Sect Master stepped forward without hesitation and shouted.

But as soon as his words fell, a vigorous life force surged around Li Cheng, and those cracks began to rapidly heal!

Eh?

The Sect Master’s resolute expression froze, what’s happening? How could there be such an immense life essence?

“Could it be the Life Law?” After steadying his mind, the Sect Master said in astonishment.

“If that’s the case, doesn’t it mean Junior Uncle has comprehended three types of Laws?” Mu Xingzhi exclaimed with raised eyebrows.

Li Cheng gave his all, but still, it was very difficult to refine the Thunderfire Tribulation in a short period of time, causing his body to keep expanding with cracks, which were then rapidly repaired by the Life Law, in a repeating cycle.

After more than a dozen breaths, his condition finally stabilized, and his skin no longer cracked.

At the same time, the clouds in the sky began to disperse!

The onlookers exchanged glances, their eyes filled with a mix of regret, relief, and complexity.

They had been expecting the Heaven Tribulation to descend, but it ultimately did not, hence the regret.

Li Cheng’s safe passage through the ordeal had lifted a great burden off their shoulders.

“There’s no rush at this moment. He will ascend sooner or later, right?” Bai Tieyi said with a smile.

Regardless, Li Cheng had survived the terrifying crisis that had just occurred; the matter of the Heaven Tribulation could wait a bit!

Elder Seven’s eyes shone brightly, “Look quickly, a full twenty Emperor Grade pills, five hundred and ten King Grade pills, and… over seven thousand top-quality ones!”

His exclamation drew everyone’s attention.

Seeing the large batch of Responding to Calamity Pills floating above the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod, their expressions turned wonderfully animated.

“How many years of accumulation from so many major powers does this yield equal?”

“So many Responding to Calamity Pills, it’s making me want to hurry up and fail my Tribulation Crossing and switch to becoming a Loose Immortal!” Elder Seven couldn’t stop his tongue from wagging.

Glances filled with scorn shifted towards Elder Seven, and everything was conveyed in those looks.

“Quickly, collect the pills. Little Martial Uncle won’t wake up anytime soon, and we can’t let outsiders see these Responding to Calamity Pills!” Mu Xingzhi reminded.

Elder Seven nodded and hurriedly went forward to collect them.

If the existence of so many Responding to Calamity Pills were to leak out, wouldn’t the major powers join hands to seize them?

That would be a disaster for the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.

The Sect Master calculated with a flick of his fingers and then frowned slightly, “There is indeed a calamity looming over our sect in the near future.”

“Are these Responding to Calamity Pills the cause?” Bai Tieyi asked.

The Sect Master shook his head, “I can’t calculate it. It’s a pity that I underestimated Martial Brother Li Cheng’s alchemy skills, which led to a failure in concealing the Heaven’s Secrets in advance.”

The Heaven Secret Immortal Scroll was extremely mysterious, and the divine predictions derived from it could not be wrong. For a moment, everyone’s gaze was fixed on the Sect Master.

The Sect Master continued to shake his head, “I really can’t deduce more, whether it’s the Responding to Calamity Pills causing it, or perhaps the many high-level demon beasts we’ve slain, but that’s not the point. The important thing is we probably won’t be able to go into seclusion in the short term, and we need to guard the sect well.”

As he spoke, the Sect Master looked towards Li Cheng, who was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, “We all know how important Martial Brother Li Cheng is, no matter what, we can’t let anything happen to him.”

Everyone nodded; whether the sect could become stronger often depended on the collective effort of everyone!

However, sometimes, relying on one person was enough!

Like Li Cheng in front of them.

Li Cheng was still fully engaged in refining the Thunderfire Tribulation, and the Heaven’s Hidden Soul Nourishing Flame within his body was joyfully devouring the scorching power from the tribulation, gradually growing stronger.

As time passed, Li Cheng’s physical body was being tempered to become even stronger.

If before the Pill Tribulation, Li Cheng’s physical strength could be considered a lower quality half-immortal artifact, then now, it was at least a high-quality half-immortal artifact!

Li Cheng was well aware that if he could elevate his body’s strength to a level comparable with Immortal Artifacts, the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture would be able to reach the tenth layer!

And now, he was not far from achieving it!

Unexpectedly, Li Cheng discovered that he had unwittingly comprehended a law—the Thunder Law!

“So it’s possible to take advantage of Tribulation Crossing to comprehend laws. Did Grand Venerable Bai Jie earn his title because he comprehended laws amidst the Tribulation Thunder, which is why he kept crossing tribulations repeatedly, earning him the moniker ‘Bai Jie’?”

Li Cheng slowly opened his eyes, and two electric arcs zipped through his starry eyes.

“It hasn’t really delayed much time. I should go search for the Treasure Map now!”

Muttering to himself, Li Cheng descended onto the mountain peak.

Elder Seven immediately greeted him, handing over a Storage Ring, “Little Martial Uncle, all the Responding to Calamity Pills from this time are inside.”

Since the pills were refined by Li Cheng, it was only natural for him to decide how many to give to the sect.

Li Cheng didn’t take it but instead turned his gaze towards Mu Xingzhi, “Sect Master, there’s something I’m very curious about!”
