In the days that followed, Dengxian Island operated at a high intensity every day.

The blacksmith camp's five production lines operated day and night, producing a continuous stream of replica armor plates. Luo Tianfei dispatched more than twenty cultivators at the Spirit Sect Realm to take turns transporting and installing them, and the armor coverage on Earth's outer perimeter was increasing every day.

The training in the monk camp became increasingly rigorous each day.

Lu Sheng spends two hours each day personally guiding the elite cultivators at the Spirit Emperor Realm in rule suppression training. The rest of the time, he either consolidates his cultivation in a secret chamber or goes into space for practical rule-based combat drills.

He still needs time to fully digest and control the power of the mid-stage Spirit Saint Realm.

While breakthroughs have been achieved, many details of control remain insufficiently refined. These include the folding range and precision of spatial laws, the response speed of rule formulation within the small world domain, and the coordination when all five laws are activated simultaneously.

These things can't be solved by simply consuming the source of energy; they require real, hands-on practice.

Lu Sheng designated an area in outer space, where he would release small world domains every day and conduct various extreme manipulation tests within those domains.

The gravity in a certain area of ​​the domain is instantly amplified by a thousand times, and then returns to normal in the next second.

Create a spatial rift at the edge of the domain, and precisely control the size and direction of the rift.

At the same time, it activates the five laws to create a small celestial phenomenon—wind and thunder intertwining, space folding, flames freezing, water flowing backward, and the earth cracking—and then retracts it all within a breath.

Each manipulation consumes spiritual energy, but it also hones his precision in controlling the laws.

By the tenth day, Lu Sheng clearly felt that his control over the power of the mid-stage Spirit Saint Realm had reached a new level.

The expansion and contraction speed of the small world domain has nearly doubled. The rule-making within the domain is also more flexible, no longer requiring deliberate concentration; the rules are almost formed the moment a thought arises.

"Almost there." Lu Sheng flew back to Dengxian Island from space and landed on the plaza.

As he walked toward the training field, he heard a muffled clap of thunder from afar.

It wasn't thunder from the sky. It was coming from the direction of the training ground.

Lu Sheng quickened his pace.

On the training ground, a group of cultivators formed a large circle. Standing in the middle was Dao Yi.

Dao Yi's body crackled and popped, arcs of electricity coursing wildly across his skin. His eyes were tightly shut, his face flushed red, and all his clothes had been burned to shreds by the current, leaving only his underwear hanging precariously from his waist.

"He's about to break through!" Zhou Lei shouted in a low voice.

Lu Sheng stood at the edge of the training field, but did not go in.

He looked at Dao Yi and understood what was going on.

The spiritual energy within the Dao Unity is undergoing a dramatic change. At this moment, a gap has been torn open at the peak of the Spirit Emperor Realm, and a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth is converging towards the Dao Unity.

The laws of lightning surged within Dao Yi's body, beginning to transform from "manipulating external elements" to "using laws to leverage the spiritual source of heaven and earth."

This is the threshold of the Spirit Venerable Realm.

It is no longer about simply mobilizing one's own spiritual energy to manipulate the elements, but about directly using laws to influence the operation of spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

boom!

Dao Yi suddenly opened his eyes.

A thick column of purple lightning shot straight into the sky from above his head, exploding into a huge thundercloud in the sky above the training ground.

The surrounding cultivators were pushed back by the shockwave. Several young cultivators at the Spirit Sect Realm were directly blasted away, rolling several times on the ground.

"Spiritual Venerable Realm!" Zhou Lei stared wide-eyed at the thunderclouds above Dao Yi's head.

The thunderclouds churned for about thirty seconds before slowly dissipating.

Dao Yi stood in the center of the training field, his body crackling with pale purple electricity. He looked down at his hands, where fine lightning patterns flickered on his palms.

"I... broke through?" His voice was a little weak.

Lu Sheng then walked over.

"Congratulations. Early stage of Spirit Venerable Realm."

When Dao Yi came to his senses and saw Lu Sheng standing in front of him, his knees buckled and he almost knelt down.

"My lord! I've broken through!"

"I saw it. Don't shout."

Lu Sheng glanced at him. He was at the early stage of the Spirit Venerable Realm, and his aura was still somewhat unstable, but his foundation in the laws was quite solid. His half-month of training in suppressing the rules had not been in vain.

"Don't rush into battle over the next week. First, stabilize your early-stage Spirit Venerable Realm and deeply integrate the lightning-type laws with the basic elements you've already mastered."

"Yes!" Dao Yi's voice trembled with excitement.

Lu Sheng turned to look at the cultivators who were watching.

"You've all seen it. Dao Yi was at the peak of the Spirit Emperor Realm ten days ago. Today he broke through. What did he rely on? Not talent, not elixirs, but his relentless, death-defying training under the suppression of the rules."

He glanced at Zhou Lei.

"Zhou Lei, you have the best chance of being the second to break through. Give me that extra push!"

Zhou Lei nodded emphatically.

Lu Sheng didn't say anything more and turned to leave the training ground.

He was very satisfied with Dao Yi's breakthrough. Earth finally had its second cultivator at the Spirit Venerable Realm. Although Dao Yi's initial Spirit Venerable Realm level was still insignificant in the vast universe, he could now play a much greater role within Earth's defense system.

After returning to the secret chamber, Lu Sheng sat cross-legged on the stone bed and closed his eyes.

He began making final preparations.

The day the Azure Guardian arrives is ten days away.

Before that, he must completely digest the power of the mid-stage Spirit Saint Realm.

There can be no waste whatsoever.
