Chapter 4191: Law 4172 Mastery

Chapter 4189

Laws Perfected

Before they could evade, the golden orb burst open. A massive golden lightning shot up into the sky, covering an area of one hundred thousand li, tearing open the void, with dust and smoke billowing.

The old man in golden robes conjured a sword art, and twelve golden flying swords radiated bright golden light, shattering the yellow glow and shooting straight towards the golden lightning. At the same time, a vast expanse of crimson flames surged from the ground, transforming an area of hundreds of thousands of li into a crimson sea of fire.

He threw a punch, causing the crimson sea of fire to surge and churn. A crimson fire fist flew out, carrying terrifying high temperatures, heading directly towards the golden lightning.

He took out a glittering golden horn and gently blew into it. A loud horn blast rang out, and a golden ripple swept forth, heading straight towards the opponent.

This was not all. A dazzling white light glowed from his palm, and he slapped the void. A white giant hand appeared out of thin air, slapping towards Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao.

He employed the Laws of Sword, Fire, Sound, and Ice. Although they were Laws of Minor Accomplishment, he figured Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao wouldn't be able to handle them so easily.

The twelve golden flying swords plunged into the golden lightning, producing muffled clanging sounds of metal striking metal.

A giant red palm flew out from the golden lightning, effortlessly defeating the white giant hand, the crimson fire fist, and the golden sound wave, which was the Rongqiao Art.

The giant red palm, carrying terrifying high temperatures, rushed towards the old man in golden robes. Just as he was about to dodge, a powerful gravitational force emanated from the ground, pulling his body uncontrollably downwards.

The old man in golden robes was greatly alarmed and hurriedly conjured a glittering golden shield, blocking the giant red fist.

A streak of green lightning lit up, and a green Roc puppet beast appeared above his head. With a gentle flap of its wings, a large swath of green electric arcs flew out, engulfing the old man in golden robes.

As the golden lightning dispersed, Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao were already wearing mid-grade Chaos Armor, blocking the twelve golden flying swords.

The giant tiger puppet beast pounced, colliding with the golden shield. The golden shield flew backward, striking the old man in golden robes.

The old man in golden robes was sent flying backward, his blood and qi surging within him.

Wang Qingcheng drew his bowstring with his right hand, and seven arrows appeared instantly, immediately merging into one. This was the Rongqiao Art.

With a "whoosh," a seven-colored arrow shot forth, instantly reaching the old man in golden robes.

As the old man in golden robes was about to dodge, a powerful gravitational force pinned him in place. At the same time, the Roc puppet beast spewed a thick beam of green lightning directly towards him.

The old man in golden robes slashed his right hand towards the void, and a sharp golden sword light swept out, destroying the green lightning.

A golden light barrier then appeared, protecting his entire body. At the same time, he threw a punch, and a giant red fist surged forth to meet the attack.

The giant red fist collided with the seven-colored arrow, like an egg hitting a rock, instantly disintegrating. The seven-colored arrow then struck the golden light barrier, which shattered instantly.

The seven-colored arrow pierced through the old man in golden robes' left shoulder, instantly petrifying his body, which then froze. The Law Arrow carried a law-based attack.

A crimson long rainbow shot forth, striking the petrified old man in golden robes. His body burst into pieces, and a miniature Nascent Soul shot out, along with dozens of golden lights, flying in different directions.

The ground glowed with dazzling yellow light, and gravity intensified sharply. At the same time, the Roc puppet flapped its wings gently, and countless streaks of green lightning shot out, striking the dozens of golden lights.

The miniature Nascent Soul seemed to know it couldn't escape, so it inflated and self-destructed.

A massive golden light flared up, engulfing an area of hundreds of thousands of li, with dust and smoke billowing.

As the dust and smoke dispersed, Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao were unharmed, but they frowned deeply.

Which force dispatched six Golden Immortal cultivators to ambush them? If they hadn't mastered the Qiankun Three Fingers and the Rongqiao Art, it would have been truly difficult for them to eliminate the attacking enemies.

This time, the enemy sent a Golden Immortal of Great Perfection who had achieved Minor Accomplishment in laws. Next time, would they send a Golden Immortal of Great Perfection with Great Accomplishment in laws?

"Let's return to Qinglian City first!" Wang Qingcheng said. "We need to inform our clan members about this news so they don't fall victim to similar ambushes."

They collected the valuables from the enemies' corpses and returned the way they came.

In Five Immortals City, at Tianluo Pavilion, Qian Dong sat on a chair, holding a golden Transmission Immortal Mirror in his hand, with Xu Qian's image on its surface.

"What? All their Soul Lamps are extinguished?" Qian Dong's face was filled with shock.

"It's absolutely true," Xu Qian replied. "Logically speaking, even if they were no match, Fellow Daoist Liu should have been able to escape. It seems Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao are quite strong, or they had an expert assisting them."

"We underestimated them. It's a pity Xu Ming is out," Qian Dong said, frowning.

"Should we send more people to intercept them?" Xu Qian asked, frowning. "Having failed once, it will be even harder to deal with them again."

"Since our Yama Palace has accepted this mission, we naturally must complete it properly," Qian Dong instructed. "However, the client's offer was too low. Tell him to increase the payment by five times the original amount. If he's unwilling, then forget it. This mission ends here."

Yama Palace operates for a fee. If the target's strength is too great, Yama Palace has the right to raise the price. If the client cannot afford the increased fee, Yama Palace will not send more operatives. This is standard practice in the trade; otherwise, if a client pays to eliminate a True Immortal cultivator who then advances to the Golden Immortal stage, Yama Palace would suffer too great a loss by not raising the price.

"Five times? Isn't that too high?" Xu Qian looked troubled.

"Hmph," Qian Dong said, his face cold. "We've lost six Golden Immortal cultivators. It's good enough that we're not asking for ten times the price. It's not easy for us to recruit a Golden Immortal cultivator."

Yama Palace values money, not people. If you have no money, don't come to Yama Palace.

"Yes, Steward Qian," Xu Qian replied. She then thought of something and continued, "Fellow Daoist Liu was a Golden Immortal of Great Perfection. Did Wang Qingcheng and Sun Yuejiao conceal their strength? Or have they cultivated to become peak True Spirits? They actually wiped out Fellow Daoist Liu and his group."

"Who knows!" Qian Dong instructed. "From now on, if we receive a mission to eliminate a Wang family cultivator, the price will be five times that of a regular target. If it's the Azure Lotus Immortals, the starting price is ten times, and no bargaining."

He didn't have many Golden Immortal-stage assassins under him. Losing too many would lead to reprimands from above, and he wouldn't be able to explain himself. More importantly, losing too many Golden Immortal cultivators would affect his performance. Each steward in Yama Palace had a limited number of Golden Immortal cultivators under their command, and their performance was linked to their promotions and the amount of cultivation resources they received. If their performance was poor, the higher-ups wouldn't provide too many Golden Immortal cultivators to that steward.

"Yes, Steward Qian," Xu Qian replied.

After giving a few more instructions, Qian Dong put away the Transmission Immortal Mirror, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"The Wang family is surprisingly difficult to deal with," Qian Dong muttered to himself. "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have taken this mission."

In Qinglian City, on Qinglian Peak, the door of a certain secret chamber opened, and Wang Changsheng walked out with a joyful expression on his face.

After cultivating in seclusion for over one hundred thousand years, he successfully cultivated his laws to Great Accomplishment. Having consumed the Enlightenment Fruit, cultivating laws had been relatively easy.
