small world.

“The five elements medicines alone are not enough. This world is flawed; it lacks the laws of spiritual energy,” Bi Qing explained.

"What is the Law of Spiritual Energy?"

This time, none of the three had heard of it.

But the three of them, including the Smoke King, were extremely interested.

Luo Fengtang is still young, so he's in a slightly better position. But Yan Huang and Tian Suan Qi Sheng are different. They've been pursuing the Grandmaster for most of their lives, and it's become an obsession in their hearts. Now that they've finally gotten a clue, how can they not take it seriously?

"The Law of Spiritual Essence is one of the laws of heaven and earth. The law was the key to becoming a god in the past. The process of becoming a god is to unite with the Dao, understand the law, and control the law. The Law of Spiritual Essence is one of them. It used to be omnipresent, but a great god in the past removed this law in order to limit the height of the world. The purpose was to make it difficult for people to surpass the Grandmaster realm."

Bi Qing said.

"Why did you do that?" the Smoke Emperor pressed.

Extracting even just one of the laws of an entire world is enough to seem incomprehensible, and could very well come at an unimaginable cost.

Doing this is a thankless and exhausting endeavor.

"The power of the Heavenly Demon grows stronger with the power of the human heart. If living beings can easily reach a higher realm, then the power of the Heavenly Demon will also increase, and may even expand to an uncontrollable degree."

At this moment, both Yan Huang and Tian Suan Qi Sheng were somewhat frustrated.

They have been searching for most of their lives, from once spirited and talented young men to young grandmasters, and step by step into old age, yet they still have not found the path to becoming a grandmaster.

If there were no grandmasters in this world, they might have given up hope. But the fact that there are still grandmasters like Venerable Feng means there is an opportunity, a possibility.

This state of mind, filled with hope yet gradually descending into despair, can only be truly understood by old folks like them who have experienced the vicissitudes of life.

"The laws of spirit... these laws are things we can't possibly touch. We have no hope." The Smoke Emperor let out a desolate laugh, a mixture of sorrow and relief.

At this moment, he thought of the pain of his senior brothers and sisters who couldn't break through to the Grandmaster level. He couldn't understand it back then, but in recent years, he has gradually come to understand it.

"You want to advance to the Grandmaster level?" Bi Qing suddenly asked.

"Yes, this is what we've been pursuing for most of our lives." The Heavenly Chess Saint sighed deeply. He didn't think Bi Qing had any way out. After all, Bi Qing's strongest level was only demigod. In order to seal Ao Guang, his own realm even dropped. Because even at the demigod level, there are strong and weak. Ao Guang was the strongest, while Bi Qing was the weakest.

"Advancing to Grandmaster is not difficult for martial artists like you who are just one step away from becoming Grandmasters."

As soon as Bi Qing finished speaking, both the Smoke Emperor and the Heavenly Chess Saint's eyes lit up.

"Senior, do you have a solution?"

“It’s not difficult. That great master from back then deliberately left behind several small worlds with complete laws… But while advancement isn’t difficult, one must bear the backlash. The outer world rejects grandmasters. Grandmasters cannot stay in the outside world for long; they must stay in those specific small worlds,” Bi Qing said.

In ancient times, Grandmasters were not uncommon; almost all the middle and upper levels of a sect were Grandmasters. Of course, those who reached the demigod level were very rare.

"We are not afraid of backlash."

Both the Smoke Emperor and the Heavenly Chess Saint were somewhat excited. What was a mere backlash? Moreover, they now understood why the Wind Venerable hadn't appeared many times over the years. It turned out that the Wind Venerable couldn't stay in the outside world for long.

"That's simple. I have a diagram here; you can use it."

With a flap of his wings, Bi Qing revealed a scroll of calligraphy and painting to the Emperor Yan.

This painting and calligraphy is not made of paper, and I don't know what material it is made of, but it can withstand high temperatures without any change.

The Smoke Emperor carefully put the map away, as if it were a priceless treasure. Now was certainly not the time to look at the map. "Ahead lies a crucial point; the power of the Heavenly Demon has swelled considerably."

With a flap of its wings, Bi Qing caused the seemingly enclosed flesh and blood in front of it to suddenly separate, revealing a doorway.

Bi Qing fell to the ground and transformed into human form upon landing.

He can freely switch between human and demon forms, and can also create clones.

"You all go ahead and prepare for battle. I need to conserve my energy to deal with the Heavenly Demon."

Bi Qing quickly hid behind the crowd.

Having just received the benefits, the Smoke King and the Chess Master had no choice but to stand in front, unable to say anything.

The scene ahead was quite terrifying, with flesh and blood intertwined to form lumps of flesh that wriggled and were grotesquely frightening.

This place has been severely corrupted by demons.

A figure suddenly burst forth from the flesh and blood, floating in the air.

"This... the Great Banner Master!"

"Smoke Emperor said in astonishment."

The Great Banner Master's appearance here was as follows: his face was covered with demonic patterns, he had horns on his head, and his open eyes were completely black, with no pupils visible.

“You’re in charge of dealing with her.” Bi Qing stood at the very back.

"Can't she recover?" Yan Huang asked worriedly.

"It can be restored, provided that you control her and get her out of the Heavenly Demon's territory," Bi Qing said calmly.

"Okay, let's go together, the three of us."

Yan Huang nodded. It was quite rare to see three top-tier martial artists, all masters, attacking together.

As they approached, they discovered that the Great Banner Master's various techniques were fluid and skillful, allowing him to hold his own against three opponents.

"She's stronger now, faster, and stronger. I'm having a tough time."

The Chess Master frowned. With the clash of weapons, he clearly felt his strength had weakened considerably. The continuous force surged towards him layer by layer, leaving him no time to defend himself.

"That's strange. I'm under a lot of pressure too. She can divide her power into three parts to hit people."

Yan Huang called out to Luo Fengtang again, "How's it going on your end?"

Three different weapons simultaneously confronted the three men. The weapons flew through the air, and three force fields enveloped the three weapons, putting immense pressure on all three of them.

"It's the same on my side. This can't go on. Her power seems to have stolen the energy from Ao Guang's body. It's inexhaustible. We must subdue her quickly, otherwise we won't be able to win a protracted battle."

Luo Fengtang noticed something, because he had received Ao Guang's fragmented memories and a portion of his inheritance, and was able to discern the source of the Great Banner's main force.

"Then what should we do? The Great Banner Master has the blood of a dragon, which may be the reason."

The Emperor of Smoke could also see some of it, but he was helpless and had no ability to solve it.

"I'm the only one who can do this. I'll lead the attack, and you guys will support me."

Luo Fengtang let out a soft shout. After receiving Ao Guang's memory inheritance, he was no stranger to the power of dragons, until he discovered some minor flaws. With the inheritance, his original power was no weaker than that of the Smoke Emperor and the Heavenly Chess Saint.
