Chapter 1252: The Enlightenment Pavilion

Ou Yangming descended from the blue ring.

He landed in a magical space. The space was filled with the aura of laws, and there were all sorts of laws.

This was the first time Ou Yangming had seen the power of laws in the Fallen Land. Whether it was the Ancient Devil Warrior or the Dark Ferocious Beasts, they knew nothing about laws.

After he landed, the blue ring in the sky disappeared. He was surrounded by a sealed space as if there was no way out.

Ou Yangming was shocked. He quietly observed, and he suddenly focused.

“The time in this place…”

Other people could not sense anything, but Ou Yangming discovered it because he had somewhat grasped the law of time. The flow of time here was different from the outside world. As for how much time was flowing, he could not be sure for the time being.

To change time and to change the flow of time in such a large area, how mighty would one need to be to do that?

That strange voice sounded again.

“This is the Enlightenment Pavilion, one of my most prized treasures. You can stay here for 50 years. In 50 years, no matter what method you use, as long as you can blast open that door, I’ll give this Enlightenment Pavilion to you. If you can’t do it, you’ll be devoured by the Enlightenment Pavilion and turn into one of the tens of thousands of powers of laws here.”

‘One of the tens of thousands of powers of laws?’

All of a sudden, Ou Yangming’s face turned pale. He looked at the densely packed powers of laws in the Enlightenment Pavilion. Each of them represented a power at the peak. There were strong and weak powers of laws floating in space for the later generations to comprehend. ‘Could these people be…’

“You’re right. They’re all people who failed.” The strange voice seemed to have guessed Ou Yangming’s thoughts.

“How many of them are there…” Ou Yangming’s scalp was slightly numb.

He asked, “Did anyone succeed?”

After saying this, he felt that he was very stupid. If someone succeeded, it would not be his turn to enter the Enlightenment Pavilion.

‘Damn it! What kind of damned place have I come to…’ Ou Yangming felt some regret in his heart.

Curiosity killed the cat. With his strength, it was not difficult for him to get Dripping Blood Stones in the Fallen Land. Why did he have to come to this place to seek trouble?

These 50 years should be referring to the 50 years in this space. He did not know how long it corresponded to the outside world. If it was more than 3 years, he would just give up. After 3 years, the world would be destroyed. Could he hide in here and escape the great calamity of Heaven and Earth?

“The time acceleration of the Enlightenment Pavilion is now 100 times. 50 years is equivalent to half a year in the outside world. Work hard. I hope you can succeed.”

Ou Yangming’s expression gradually eased up. He could still accept half a year’s time.

He took a deep breath.

Fortune and misfortune coexisted. This place looked terrifying. If Ou Yangming could not break through the door, he would turn into one of the laws here. Despite that, from another perspective, before the great calamity arrived, it provided him with an additional 49 and a half years of cultivation time.

If he could get out, with this period of cultivation, his chances of obtaining the divine spark would greatly increase.

Of course, the prerequisite was that he could get out.

Ou Yangming looked in the direction of the door. The door was dark, and there were a few unknown runes flashing on it.

He walked over, took out the Reincarnation Spear, and slammed it!

“Boom!”

The Reincarnation Spear slammed into the stone door, but not a single white dot appeared on it. Ou Yangming was unwilling to give up. He tried a few more times, but he still could not make any scratches on the stone door.

“Heaven’s Destruction!

“Earth’s Demolition!”

Boom, boom, boom…

The sound of explosions came one after another, but the stone door did not change at all.

“What’s this door made of? Isn’t it too sturdy?”

Ou Yangming touched the stone, but he did not know what this thing was made of. He had used his strongest attack, but he was still unable to leave a mark on it. It was not an easy thing to break through it.

Looking at the dense powers of laws in the air, Ou Yangming’s eyelids twitched twice.

He had given up on continuing to bombard this door. With his strength, it was impossible to shake this stone door at the moment.

If he wanted to get out of here, he had to work hard to increase his strength.

If he wanted to increase his strength, he could start from several aspects.

Moves?

Ou Yangming’s most powerful moves were Heaven’s Destruction and Earth’s Demolition of the Supreme Spear Principle. There was no doubt that these 2 moves were remarkable. He had killed powerful enemies and resisted experts whose strengths far exceeded his own. He relied on these 2 moves to succeed.

Other than these techniques, the Supreme Spear Principle also had Nothingness and Reincarnation.

These two moves were definitely more powerful but comprehending them was not guaranteed. Furthermore, these 2 moves might not be able to take down this stone door. After all, this was a dead object and could only be broken through with great strength. It was very different from killing an enemy.

There were also boundaries. In this place, deepening one’s comprehension of the law boundary and entering the third step was undoubtedly the best.

If one became a formidable expert of the third step, breaking through this stone door should not be a problem.

Of course, Ou Yangming did not dare to be certain. Who knew what kind of rules that mysterious person had set? After all, above conferred Rulers of the third step, there were also top-notch powerhouses in the Heavenly Rank. That kind of existence was on par with the heavenly path. No one could guess such a person’s thoughts.

Based on the pressure outside, Ou Yangming could determine that the master of this place was not some third-step powerhouse.

Ou Yangming had met a few third-step powerhouses.

The dragon emperor, the sect leader of the Mystic Sky sect, the Ancient Demon King, and the Nine-sworded Ruler. These were all third-step powerhouses who had interacted with Ou Yangming before. Given their strengths, they could not have achieved this.

Breaking through to the third step was one way, and the other way was to continue improving the strength of Ou Yangming’s main body.

Now, Ou Yangming had only fused over 200 Dripping Blood Stones. There was still some distance to go before he could fuse with 1,000 stones and become a Devil King. Once his body strength broke through to become a Devil King, he was confident that if he met another expert like the Nine-sworded Ruler, even if he was no match for that powerhouse, the other party would not be able to do anything to him.

A Devil King’s body was comparable to a low-grade Acquired Taoist Tool. With such a powerful body and all sorts of secret techniques, Ou Yangming definitely had the strength to protect himself.

This was also a way, and it was also the simplest way.

Ou Yangming still had a lot of Ancient Demons’ blood essences, as well as a lot of Dripping Blood Stones. He had picked up over 300 of them from those fierce beasts. There were also those from the 2 Devil Kings. The 2 of them had obtained at least several thousand Dripping Blood Stones.

‘Let’s begin.’ Ou Yangming did not hesitate any longer. Time was limited, and he could not waste even a quarter of an hour.

He would use the simplest method at the very beginning, the Dripping Blood Stones!

Ou Yangming took out all the Dripping Blood Stones from his interspatial ring. Several thousand Dripping Blood Stones piled up into a small mountain on the ground.

He also took out all the bottles and jars that contained the Ancient Demons’ blood essences.

This would be a long-lasting battle, and Ou Yangming was mentally prepared for it.

1, 2…

Ou Yangming concentrated and began to cultivate.

Time flew by like a white horse. In the blink of an eye, 3 years had passed, and the Dripping Blood Stones on the ground had all disappeared. The few bottles and jars that contained the blood essences were also empty. Ou Yangming still had half a bottle left, but they did not seem to be of much use.

In these 3 years, Ou Yangming had fused from 200 Dripping Blood Stones to 3,600.

His body’s strength had increased by more than 100 times. All the blood essences had become a part of his body’s strength. Now, he had the ability to shake the world with a single move.

If he met a Devil King like the rock sparrow, he would not even need to take out the Reincarnation Spear. With his body’s strength alone, he could finish it off with a single punch.

In terms of physical strength, Ou Yangming estimated that it had surpassed the strength he once had in the Ancient Demons’ ruins.

At that time, Ou Yangming’s strength was comparable to the Heavenly Star Mansion’s master. In other words, with his physical strength at the moment, he could fight against top-tier second-step powerhouses in the Great Wide World.

Moreover, his physical strength had an advantage. His spiritual energy might be exhausted, but his physical strength would never disappear.

After 3 years of repetition, Ou Yangming had developed a steady character. He slowly stood up, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

He walked to the stone door again.

Ou Yangming’s muscles bulged, and the Reincarnation Spear suddenly struck out. This ordinary spear attack had surpassed the attacking power of his Heaven’s Destruction 3 years ago.

“Rumble!”

The sound of an explosion reverberated in his ears.

With that, the powers of law in the surroundings continuously shook, and sparks flew.

After a long time, the echo gradually disappeared. Ou Yangming looked at the stone door with disappointment in his eyes.

“As expected, it won’t be so simple.”

A white spot appeared on the stone door. The white spot only had a small dent. Compared to such a large stone door, it was almost negligible.

After 3 years of hard work, he had made some progress. Unfortunately, the gap was still too big. He had a bitter smile on his face.

His strength could already contend with a third-step powerhouse at the moment, but he was still unable to cause any damage to the stone door.

Just how much damage did he need to do?

Middle-stage, late-stage, or the peak of the third step?

No one could answer this question.

“Luckily, only 3 years have passed. There are still 47 years left. I can definitely do it.”

Ou Yangming gritted his teeth, and his gaze became resolute again.

Putting away the Reincarnation Spear, Ou Yangming looked at the powers of laws in the sky. He slowly sat cross-legged, and his mind was clear. He instantly entered the state of the integration of Heaven and man.

In Ou Yangming’s mind, a large patch of different colors appeared.
