第一千八百四十三章 法则之力的疑惑

Chapter 1843: Doubts about the Power of Law

Not in a hurry, let's first observe and then decide.

With his thoughts racing, Lin Xuan remained motionless where he stood.

And just as quickly as it happened, the arrow rain formed from the scales had already been shot over.

The little guy didn't summon any treasure or use any defensive spells; instead, it scrambled away with its head in its paws like a rat.

There was no mistake—indeed, it was scrambling. With two slender claws raised high, it hugged its head and frantically dodged about.

It looked just like a helpless fly, with all the awkwardness of one.

Lin Xuan stared in disbelief, almost thinking he had seen wrong. This little guy had just seemed so formidable earlier; how could it end up as trash now?

The clumsy appearance made Lin Xuan shudder, but by this time, it was too late to help.

Fortunately, the little guy's small size and agility allowed it to avoid injury for a while.

Though the process seemed complex, in reality, it only took a few breaths. The attack ended quickly, and the little guy managed to escape unharmed. However, Lin Xuan couldn't yet determine if this was due to its strength or luck.

The little guy's face showed a human-like expression of relief as it used tiny claws to pat its chest. It even exhaled a breath with relief.

Lin Xuan laughed and sighed, but he had to admit the little guy was still cute.

As for its strength, it hadn't been fully tested. It seemed like a clumsy piece of trash, but could it really be?

Lin Xuan kept some doubt in his heart and decided to wait before making any judgments.

Roar!

Seeing no effect from the first attack, the monster with a dragon head and fish body naturally wouldn't give up. It let out a fierce roar while opening its blood-red mouth.

Sure enough, another powerful technique was about to be unleashed. However, this time, the little guy didn't wait for it to land; instead, it showed signs of anger on its face with large eyes filled with tears.

It flashed and spun around in place as a milky-white light halo emerged from its actions.

Initially, only covering itself, it soon spread outward.

In just an instant, the area for several miles was enveloped by this milky-white light curtain. Lin Xuan was shocked; his nature wouldn't allow him to be trapped in such unknown danger. He tried to dodge but found that the light curtain had already filled the space before he could react, completely covering it.

Lin Xuan's expression changed.

Without a word, he emitted a bluish-green glow all over his body. Among his defensive techniques, only the Nine Heaven Spirit Shield allowed him to control its usage with his mind.

A layer of greenish haze enveloped his body as Lin Xuan calmed down and began inspecting everything.

There was nothing amiss; despite being under that milky-white light, his entire body felt normal. His power flow remained unchanged, showing no hindrance.

Not only did the light not cause any discomfort, but it felt like warm sunlight, making him feel comfortable.

This was strange!

Lin Xuan raised his head in surprise as he saw a scene before him that left him stunned.

Unlike himself who remained unaffected by the light curtain, the monster with a dragon head and fish body trembled violently, clearly uncomfortable.

Struggling to fly out, but every attempt was futile; it would be repelled back whenever it approached the edge of the light curtain.

Lin Xuan witnessed this with his own eyes and couldn't help being shocked. Was he trapped here too?

With a flash, Lin Xuan flew backward. To his surprise, the light curtain posed no resistance to him; he easily escaped.

Was it only targeting monsters? This was strange.

The scene before him seemed familiar but he could not recall where he had seen it.

Lin Xuan's expression turned serious as he continued to observe silently.

Aaah!

Seeing the escape route blocked, the monster let out a roar and released blood energy from its chest. It might as well face the consequences; better to fight than to run.

Opening its mouth, it shot out a light column about a foot in diameter. After leaving the mouth, this dispersed into thousands of sharp blades, raining down on the little guy like raindrops.

"Such a technique..."

Lin Xuan also couldn't help admiring. If he were in that little guy's position, he would have found it difficult to handle too; with so many swords and knives, this secret technique was no small feat.

But then, an unbelievable scene unfolded.

This time, the little ball didn’t dodge; it seemed destined for a gruesome death. Suddenly, it extended its tiny claws and waved them in front, lifting its head proudly as if boasting.

Lin Xuan sensed a strange force of law emanating from it, different from his own use of spiritual energy. It felt familiar—like the aura he had vaguely sensed when the Five Dragon Seal was activated.

Law!

Yes, that's right! Law!

Lin Xuan’s eyes widened to the size of cow eyes. Was this really possible? Could such an unremarkable little guy actually comprehend law?

How could it be?

After all, understanding the power of law was almost the pinnacle in the cultivation world—almost the most profound and mysterious thing.

One had to reach the Tribulation Transcendence stage to even begin comprehending it. That was the final level among the eight stages of cultivation.

Such extraordinary figures were rare even in the Spirit Realm, but not nonexistent.

Could this unremarkable little guy, like a tiny ball, actually have reached the Tribulation Transcendence stage?

Thoughts raced through his mind. In just an instant, he saw thousands of blades falling down, only to turn into flower petals after the little ball waved its claws.

Indeed, it was flower petals; the sword and blade shadows vanished as a fragrant breeze filled the air.

Such things were hard to believe but were happening right before his eyes.

Lin Xuan was stunned. His eyes glinted with fierce light, turning his pupils into brilliant silver. All his spiritual energy rushed to his eyes as he pushed the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eye to its limit.
