Chapter 1614: Storage/Release Laws

As before, Li Zhangsheng once again chose the Xuan Kun Creation Stele, simply because it was irreplaceable, especially since the Gate of Light and Darkness could be advanced using other methods.

Outside the Fairy World, the importance of the Xuan Kun Creation Stele to Li Zhangsheng could be said to be second to none; without the Xuan Kun Creation Stele, the strength of Li Zhangsheng and his Spirit Beasts would definitely be significantly suppressed, and how then would he be able to deal with an Intermediate Divine Power Deity presiding over a Divine Kingdom?

Within the Divine Kingdom of an Intermediate Divine Power Deity, the Xuan Kun Creation Stele could not completely eliminate the negative suppression brought by the Divine Kingdom, leaving the Spirit Beasts able to exert only ninety percent of their combat power.

What if it were the Divine Kingdom of a Greater Divine Power Deity? The rules of the Divine Kingdom would clearly be much stronger; according to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, with the current effect of the Xuan Kun Creation Stele, being weakened by twenty or thirty percent would be a light outcome, and it is possible they could be weakened even more.

Under these circumstances, upgrading the Xuan Kun Creation Stele became the top priority.

As long as the Xuan Kun Creation Stele transcends the category of Langhuan Supreme Treasure, Li Zhangsheng is confident he can retreat unscathed from the Divine Kingdom of a Greater Divine Power Deity, or even accomplish the feat of slaying a god.

After the Xuan Kun Creation Stele flew into the Secret Realm Core, Li Zhangsheng casually threw in a large mass of Merit Profound Yellow Qi.

He is not lacking in Merit Profound Yellow Qi; not to mention what was obtained by refining the Abyss Consciousness, just the Nine Cauldrons suppressing the Fairy World and the avatars of the Heaven Earth and Human Three Emperors maintaining the operation of the Three Realms generate merit every single moment, not to mention the Ancestral Phoenix suppressing the Undying Volcano, the Candle Dragon suppressing the Four Seas Sea Eye, the Heavenly Pillar maintaining the stability of heaven and earth, and the partial merit shared from the deities on the Investiture of the Gods, etc. —there are many places where a continuous stream of merit can be obtained.

From the feedback of his Mental Power, Li Zhangsheng could feel the energy fluctuations of the Xuan Kun Creation Stele becoming increasingly intense.

In just a few breaths of time, the Xuan Kun Creation Stele reached the pinnacle of a Langhuan Supreme Treasure.

The next moment, the Xuan Kun Creation Stele shone brilliantly, officially transcending the Langhuan Supreme Treasure level, and it was still continuing to improve.

When the improvement ended, the light point representing the Xuan Kun Creation Stele had already surpassed the Gate of Light and Darkness and the Five Directions Flag, becoming the highest-grade supreme treasure in Li Zhangsheng's hands in one fell swoop.

Li Zhangsheng was ecstatic; he did not expect this upgrade to be so rapid, and he could only sigh that it was indeed worthy of being an advancement to a Small Thousand World—the effect was truly top-notch.

After retracting the Xuan Kun Creation Stele, Li Zhangsheng sensed it; the effect of the Xuan Kun Creation Stele had clearly improved a lot, and it could now spread up to a distance of ten thousand miles.

That was not all; the Xuan Kun Creation Stele also gained an additional effect, which was that it could store a certain amount of laws. While repelling nearby laws, it could also fill the surrounding space with the stored laws, thereby achieving the effect of strengthening himself and weakening the enemy.

Simply put, this is exactly the same as the effect of a Divine Kingdom.

It is just that the laws stored by the Xuan Kun Creation Stele are limited, can only be maintained for a certain amount of time, and must be replenished after being used up.

Even so, it still made Li Zhangsheng eager, and his confidence in dealing with a Greater Divine Power Deity increased by a few points.

The next moment, the Xuan Kun Creation Stele began to absorb the laws in the Secret Realm.

The laws here are most inclined toward Li Zhangsheng, which can maximize the effect.

After the Xuan Kun Creation Stele was full, Li Zhangsheng retracted it and began to feel the changes in the Secret Realm.

As before, even though the Secret Realm advanced to a Small Thousand World, Li Zhangsheng could still completely control the Secret Realm; all Authority was in his hands, even greater than the Authority held by the Heavenly Dao of the Fairy World.

Of course, compared to the Fairy World, Li Zhangsheng's Secret Realm area is much smaller, and the intensity of the Heavenly Punishment unleashed in the Secret Realm is far inferior to the Heavenly Dao of the Fairy World.

But the benefits are also obvious: this is a world 100% controlled by him, without needing to compete for control with the Heavenly Dao, especially since this world can continue to improve.

Of course, wanting to advance to a Medium Thousand World has too high a difficulty coefficient; at the very least, one must wait for the World Tree to go a step further, or for countless time to settle.

Before that, Li Zhangsheng still needs to further perfect the Secret Realm, such as establishing the Heaven Earth and Human Three Realms like the Fairy World, establishing Reincarnation and the Heavenly Court, and forming a complete cycle.

Due to the separation from the Fairy World, if the creatures born in the Secret Realm die in the future, they will be unable to return to the Underworld of the Fairy World, because they will be marked with an imprint unique to the Secret Realm.

As long as there are enough resources, establishing an Underworld and a Heavenly Court is not difficult for Li Zhangsheng, who possesses all Authority.

Simply put, in the Secret Realm, he is the Creator God.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng pointed a finger at the sky; the entire sky began to surge with wind and clouds and gradually changed. At an altitude of ten thousand meters, a huge space suddenly appeared—this is the Heavenly Court of the Secret Realm.

Li Zhangsheng pointed a finger at the ground; deep below, changes suddenly occurred, earth dragons surged, earth veins shifted, and a huge space appeared with a boom—this will be where the Underworld is located.

However, they still need time to gestate, consuming Heaven and Earth Great Power and World Power.

Besides these, Li Zhangsheng could clearly feel that the energy in countless places in the Earth Realm was surging crazily, emitting increasingly intense energy fluctuations.

These are all treasures gestated by the birth of heaven and earth, which can be called Innate Items. Things like those Innate XX Divine Lights and Essence of Innate XX are all in this category, and among them are mixed Innate Strange Treasures like the Heaven Earth and Human Three Books, the God-Slaying Spear, and the Five Directions Flag of the Fairy World.

Unfortunately, these treasures also require a lot of time to gestate, often calculated in centuries.

This is the benefit of owning a world; it is equivalent to being able to continuously obtain a large amount of resources. The biggest limitation is that the grade of the treasures has limitations, meaning at most they can only reach the Jipin Langhuan Zhibao level.

Of course, set treasures like the Five Directions Flag are not included, but this is bound to consume a lot of World Power.

After initially constructing the Secret Realm, Li Zhangsheng left the Secret Realm and returned to the Fairy World.

As before, there was no sense of repulsion as imagined; clearly, even if he cultivated a Small Thousand World, he was still a part of the Fairy World.

Li Zhangsheng did not stop exchanging for ownerless Secret Realms; his Secret Realm still has room for growth, and besides, after acquiring a certain number of Ten Branches of the World Tree or World Tree remains, he can continue to increase the potential of the Secret Realm.

Li Zhangsheng did not stay in the Fairy World for long; he began to head toward the Dawn World and the Origin World, because these two major worlds were about to approach the Fairy World.

As long as these two Small Thousand Worlds are integrated into the Fairy World, even if the Fairy World cannot fully meet the standards of a Medium Thousand World, it will still be a very good supplement; at the very least, Li Zhangsheng can share a large amount of Authority.

The gap in Authority between Li Zhangsheng and the Heavenly Dao is not large; once these two Small Thousand Worlds are integrated, he can at least be on equal footing with the Heavenly Dao, and might even be able to suppress the Heavenly Dao in terms of Authority, which is very important to him.
