I don't want to be trained by my senior sister!

As soon as he returned to the courtyard, Fang Xuan began to work on comprehending the laws of time.

The Dao artifact was inside his body, making it very convenient to comprehend.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and looked inward.

Deep within the dantian, a chaotic and indistinct light floated silently.

That is the Time-Traveling Artifact.

Meanwhile, the Law of Lust had transformed into a crimson mist, tightly binding the Law of Destruction.

The Law of Destruction was still struggling, its dark red light flickering like a trapped beast.

Fang Xuan could sense that the Law of Lust was gradually devouring him, and it was going quite smoothly.

But... he suddenly thought of another question.

The patriarch of that holy land certainly couldn't survive, and who knows if time outside would change.

What if they go out and the old ancestor's body is discovered to have been dead for several days, and he just happens to have disappeared?

There's no need to guess; everyone knows he's the killer.

Even worse, if they were to emerge, the small world would be surrounded by a bunch of immortal venerables...

Then they stared at each other, wide-eyed...

He could just snap and die instantly...

.......

It seems I must comprehend the laws of time as soon as possible.

Even if his senior sister tries to seduce him now, he doesn't care and focuses all his energy on meditation and cultivation.

The Law of Lust began to fully devour the Law of Destruction.

The process went much more smoothly than expected.

The crimson mist continued to seep in, while the dark light grew weaker and weaker.

Finally, the Law of Destruction vanished completely.

The Law of Lust has grown significantly, and its color has deepened, faintly revealing a dark red luster.

Fang Xuan opened his eyes, a strange light flashing in them.

We finished eating so quickly.

That law of destruction is too weak; it was swallowed up in no time.

This law of lust... seems quite powerful indeed?

No, it's just too amazing.

No wonder my senior sister said it was "so amazing".

He looked at Ning Qian across from him.

Ning Qian was staring at him with wide eyes, looking utterly bored.

When she saw him open his eyes, her eyes lit up.

"alright?"

"I've finished absorbing it." Fang Xuan nodded. "Next, it's time to comprehend the laws of time."

Ning Qian said "Oh," and her eyes dimmed again.

Fang Xuan didn't pay much attention and kept his eyes closed...

.......

Understanding the laws of time is much more difficult than one might imagine.

Fang Xuan felt like he was watching a movie.

Time flew by, and scenes flashed before my eyes, too fast to see clearly.

What the hell is this?

The spatial laws weren't this difficult before.

Needless to say, the Law of Lust was too simple; he grasped it in a second...

Calm down and keep trying.

The Time Dao Artifact trembled slightly in his dantian, emitting ripple-like waves.

Those fluctuations swept through his soul, bringing a profound and mysterious understanding.

The past cannot be retrieved, the future is unpredictable...

Fang Xuan seemed to understand something.

Time flows, but it's not a simple flow...

Like a river, it has upstream and downstream, but it can also go upstream.

.......

The outside world at this time.

Ning Qian sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Fang Xuan opposite her.

He's been sitting like this all day.

I haven't moved an inch since this morning, not even opening my eyes.

He didn't say anything.

Ning Qian pursed her lips.

Why isn't my junior brother awake yet...?

She is now in a mortal body, without spiritual power, and can only estimate time by feeling.

She felt like a very, very long time had passed.

Still not awake.

Ning Qian rested her chin on her hand and looked at Fang Xuan.

Although she had learned how to feed herself, she always felt something was missing when her junior brother wasn't leading the way.

That strange feeling...

And then there's her junior brother's lustful rules, which always made her so comfortable that she just wanted to stay with him forever and ever...

Ning Qian's face flushed slightly.

What is she thinking...?

Her junior brother was cultivating, and she couldn't disturb him; she had to be a good senior sister.

But......

She looked at Fang Xuan with a pitiful expression.

But Fang Xuan remained motionless.

Ning Qian sighed and continued counting the bamboo leaves outside the window.

.......

I don't know how much time passed.

Ning Qian lay on the stone table outside, her eyes half-closed.

After becoming a mortal, time seemed to pass incredibly slowly.

In the past, when I was cultivating, a period of seclusion could last for months or even years, and it would pass in the blink of an eye.

But now, even a stick of incense feels too long.

It had been sixteen hours and three quarters, and her junior brother had not opened his eyes to look at her, nor had she heard his voice.

That wretched junior brother is so obsessed with cultivation; he must be severely punished...

.......

Meanwhile.

The Three Heavens, the Sacred Land of Heavenly Ruins.

This place has truly been turned upside down.

Our ancestor is dead, dead!

The spatial artifact is gone, gone!

Outside the forbidden small world, dozens of figures stood in mid-air.

Each figure exuded an extremely terrifying aura, with the lowest being a Golden Immortal.

The man in the lead was none other than Lu Zheng.

He stared at the entrance to the small world, his face ashen.

"The ancestor is dead."

Those three words caused all the immortals present to gasp in shock.

"The Time-Traveling Artifact is gone too."

Another major piece of news.

"Junior Brother Fang has also gone missing."

Lu Zheng spoke each word clearly, his voice as cold as ice.

"And what remains at the scene is the aura of the laws of heaven and space."

A celestial being spoke up: "What Feng Ling means is..."

Lu Zheng looked at him, his eyes sharp.

"It must be someone from that Heavenly Sacred Land! They must have used their laws to predict Fang Shixie's peerless genius with two laws in one body, as well as the Time Dao Artifact."

"Then kill the patriarch, take away Junior Nephew Fang, and steal the Time-Traveling Artifact!"

He gritted his teeth and continued, "From this day forward, we will launch a full-scale attack on the Dao Heaven Holy Land. Kill them all on sight, leave no one alive. Since when has a Fifth Heaven Holy Land dared to act arrogantly in our Third Heaven?!"

The other immortals looked at each other in bewilderment, offering no opinion.

After all, Feng Ling Immortal Venerable has always been the most upright and gentle.

For him to react so strongly, it seems he's really angry.

"yes!"

The disciples accepted the order and dispersed.

Lu Zheng stood there, watching them leave.

Only after everyone had gone far away did he withdraw his gaze, and the anger on his face gradually faded.

"Eight immortals..." he murmured to himself.

"One ancestor and one immortal venerable have died, leaving six..."

"The First Ancestor has been in seclusion for a thousand years, and the Third Ancestor's strength is insufficient..."

"Nothing to fear."

He turned and looked into the depths of the small world.

That is where our ancestor perished.

"Fang Xuan... don't let me down."

He paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

He played the fool for a very, very long time to make this move, so long that everyone in the Holy Land thought he had risen to the position of Immortal Venerable by chance...
