Chapter 1622 - 924: The Price—All Beings Are Enemies on the Path

She gritted her teeth, "On the contrary, if you choose the Lower Realm, especially the first layer, you’ll be much safer."

"The first layer?" Zhang Yu shook his head, "I don’t want to choose. Such safety... I don’t want it."

Bu Yingshu’s heart trembled again, "So you’re not afraid?"

Zhang Yu recalled Shi Yunxiang, who was seriously injured today, and sighed, "Afraid? Of course, I’m afraid, but I still don’t want to choose the first layer."

Bu Yingshu’s heart shook wildly, "This guy Zhang Yu... does he really want to lift me up, help me unlock the constraints, and ascend to immortality?"

An odd feeling surged in Bu Yingshu’s heart.

Just then, seeing Zhang Yu’s gaze, Bu Yingshu quickly retreated and shouted, "Zhang... Zhang Yu! Don’t think that just because you said this, your freezing of my Law Chain will be forgotten! I won’t stop being angry with you!"

"Want me to marry you again, it’s not that simple!"

After saying that, she turned and shot out like a bolt, fleeing out of the Immortal Cave Heaven, smashing through more than a dozen Puppet Warriors along the way.

Witnessing this scene, Zhang Yu helplessly said, "Really a moody madwoman."

At this moment, a message from Bu Yingshu popped up before Zhang Yu’s eyes.

Bu Yingshu: The Immortal Shuttle is with you first; take good care of it [Step]

Bu Yingshu: About the Law Chain pilot stuff, I’ll ask my father first; don’t make decisions rashly

At the same time, Bai Zhenzhen’s voice, tinged with emptiness, appeared in Zhang Yu’s mind through the Evil God Power.

Bai Zhenzhen: What’s up, Yu Zi? I just finished a new grade of Swordsmanship, didn’t have time to reply to you

Zhang Yu asked, "What exactly did you say to Bu Yingshu?"

After listening to Bai Zhenzhen’s account, Zhang Yu’s heart sank, "Damn! Bu Yingshu won’t think I want to help her freeze the related Law Chain and assist her in ascending, will she?"

"I didn’t plan to at all!"

Zhang Yu could already imagine that, in the future, once Bu Yingshu realized he’d deceived her, she’d surely launch various forms of retribution.

But recalling the tribulation aura she just exhibited, Zhang Yu knew that explaining now might get him beaten to death on the spot.

"Sigh..."

"Making trouble..."

"Damn it... I must quickly enhance my strength, advance in realm, and surpass this woman!"

After Bu Yingshu left, Zhang Yu projected himself to visit Shi Yunxiang. After confirming no issues, he received a message from Kuang Tianqing.

...

Inside a secret base of the Sky Demon Sect at the Old Graveyard.

Kuang Tianqing was together with Su Lingyou, watching a recording with a gigantic corpse excavated from the Maze Realm of the Old Graveyard.

In the recording were Lie Jinghong, Di Xuan, Tai Yue Bai, and others participating in the legislative training, showcasing their performance in the final legislative evaluation.

During the first viewing of this recording, still ignorant of the legislative results, Kuang Tianqing’s thoughts during the process were: Lie Jinghong’s performance was definitely the best.

Di Xuan and Bu Yingshu teamed up, also with a good chance.

Tai Yue Bai’s groundbreaking dual-weekend, if it won first place in the end, would be normal...

What the heck... what does Zhang Yu’s Law Chain’s effective period mean?

The final battle turned out to be an internal war within the Reform Faction? The Wanfa Sect is going to change? A dragon emerges from the Reform Faction?

Now, watching the recording again with the giant corpse, Kuang Tianqing sighed more deeply, "Lord Zhang... During the Top Ten League back then, you defied the orders of the Ten Schools and forcefully chose ’Kunlun in the Palm.’

"I didn’t expect that after entering the sect, you’d make such a stunning impact; this battle of three generations of legislation is enough to be recorded in history for countless future individuals to admire."

Zhang Yu’s figure emerged from waves of Cave Heaven Power, nodding to Kuang Tianqing, Su Lingyou, and then spoke to the giant corpse, "Senior, long time no see."

The giant corpse kept watching the recording, saying, "The Wanfa Sect... is going to change. Those two youngsters in the Reform Faction don’t have the caliber, it must be the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Emperor who is behind this, right?"

Zhang Yu didn’t answer, but asked, "Senior, what is your view on the current Wanfa situation?"

The giant corpse sighed, "It’s tough."

"The Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Emperor not only has to prevent the chaotic development of Taoist Inheritance, but also promote innovation in Law Chain technology, prevent personal and sect interests loss, and resist Outer Sect threats, ultimately enabling a soft landing in Law Chain reform."

Hearing these words from the giant corpse, the Kao Sect Avatar sighed, "Immortal Emperor, his path is hard."

Zhang Yu asked, "In such a difficult situation, will the Immortal Emperor retreat?"

The giant corpse said, "Situations are all people-made. Before discussing the situation... let’s talk about the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Emperor first."

"You might think the Immortal Emperor is surrounded by enemies, in a tough situation."

"But I must tell you, once seated in the position of Immortal Emperor, one is always opposed by all beings, the world full of hatred."

"To an Immortal Emperor, everyone merely wants to extract benefits through him, and no one wants him to advance further."

"In short, all beings are enemies of the Path; the world is a cage for the prison of immortality."

The giant corpse lamented, "This is what the Ten Great Immortal Emperors are like. Every one is truly a solitary master of the world, and yet an enemy to all living beings."
