"No, no way. Lu Changsheng’s mental domain is undoubtedly strong, but he hasn’t mastered any Law. Facing those Dao Foundation masters who have grasped Laws, he still has no advantage."
Gu Nian shook his head.
Lu Changsheng’s Spiritual Secret Technique is certainly powerful, but the foes he has to face aren’t just the Skeleton Heavenly Demons, but also those Dao Foundation masters who have mastered Laws.
Even if Lu Changsheng arrives, he likely won’t qualify to contend for the Skeleton Heavenly Demon.
Gu Nian could only continue observing from the sidelines.
The three-headed Skeleton Heavenly Demon roared.
It unleashed the Spiritual Storm.
A terrifying wave of impact spread out in all directions.
Facing such a Spiritual Shock, Laws don’t have much effect, though they do provide some utility.
Otherwise, those Dao Foundation masters who have grasped Laws wouldn’t be able to withstand it at all.
They were only able to make it to Skull Mountain because they were sufficiently prepared.
Yet even with all their readiness, they could barely suppress the Skeleton Heavenly Demon, let alone slay it outright.
Time passed gradually.
The three-headed Skeleton Heavenly Demon seemed to be nearing its limit.
At that moment, a figure materialized in the distance.
Step by step, they crossed the void to stand suspended in midair.
Gu Nian paused, visibly startled.
His gaze instantly locked onto Lu Changsheng.
Likewise, Lu Changsheng seemed to sense his presence and looked towards Gu Nian.
In turn, Lu Changsheng walked directly over to where Gu Nian was.
"Brother Gu, didn’t you come to Skull Mountain to vie for the Skeleton Heavenly Demon? Why are you standing here watching? Are you waiting for others to fight it out and swoop in afterward to reap the benefits?"
Lu Changsheng’s expression carried a hint of mirth.
He hadn’t expected Gu Nian would want to play the role of the "Yellow Sparrow."
Upon hearing this, Gu Nian gave a bitter smile and replied, "What qualifications do I have to reap benefits? I don’t even qualify to participate in the contest."
"Those three-headed Skeleton Heavenly Demons are surrounded by Dao Foundation masters who have mastered Laws. Anyone who approaches will be blasted away by their Laws."
"Without mastering a Law, even a Dao Foundation martial artist doesn’t qualify to get close, let alone vie for the Skeleton Heavenly Demon." The most update n0vels are published on ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt
Lu Changsheng nodded in agreement.
Indeed, he’d seen the Dao Foundation masters besieging the Skeleton Heavenly Demon; their mental domains held the power of Laws.
"Three-headed Skeleton Heavenly Demon..."
Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but feel tempted.
"Brother Gu, you stay here and wait. I’ll go up and give it a try."
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
"Brother Lu, don’t be reckless! Even though your Spiritual Secret Technique is formidable, you haven’t mastered a Law. Even if you go up, you won’t be able to get close. If you anger a Dao Foundation master who has grasped a Law, you might even find yourself in danger. Why bother?"
Gu Nian immediately tried to dissuade him.
Lu Changsheng didn’t offer any explanation and continued walking step by step towards the three-headed Skeleton Heavenly Demon.
However, several of the Dao Foundation masters’ mental domains enshrouded the three-headed Skeleton Heavenly Demon.
The Laws bombarded and reverberated unceasingly.
Ordinary Dao Foundation martial artists couldn’t even get close.
"Laws? I have them too!"
Lu Changsheng’s thoughts surged.
Suddenly, his mental domain descended!
Simultaneously, Lu Changsheng’s mental domain was filled with an overwhelming fire.
Blazing flames roared across the sky, seemingly twisting even the void itself.
"This is... the Flame Law!"
"Lu Changsheng has comprehended the Flame Law?"
"How could Lu Changsheng have mastered the Flame Law? He’s only forged his Dao Foundation for such a short time!"
Gu Nian’s eyes widened sharply at the sight, his gaze filled with utter disbelief, his face brimming with shock.
After all, Gu Nian knew Lu Changsheng quite well. He even knew all of his background.
Lu Changsheng had only forged his Dao Foundation a few months ago.
Most people would barely be familiarizing themselves with their newfound power by this point.
He’d already mastered a Law!
This was simply unbelievable.
