He became the True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws starting from Liaozhai.

Xu Yi searched the forest for a while longer, casually killing two Seekers of the Dao, and then could no longer find any more.

The rusty iron sword once again absorbed the life energy of the three seekers. Xu Yi could clearly feel that the iron sword was more vibrant than before, indicating that it had become even more powerful. If it could absorb enough to reach one hundred and evolve, what changes would occur?

Now, the iron sword is considered a divine weapon capable of cutting through iron like mud, and it can even easily pierce the body of a seeker of the Dao.

Xu Yi didn't know where the Seekers of the Dao ranked, but these kinds of monsters must be quite strong, right? Otherwise, the entire mountain wouldn't be covered with traces of their activity. In other words, the entire mountain was the territory of the Seekers of the Dao. That's an exaggeration, but it's the truth.

Seekers of the Dao are considered to be of a very high rank among wild beasts. In this mountain forest, apart from the birds in the sky, Xu Yi hadn't seen any other beasts. It seemed these seekers didn't know to leave any seeds behind; otherwise, what would they eat next spring? Would they starve? Or would they have to cannibalize each other...?

However, to be honest, this seeker of the Dao is really ruthless. He really ate the entire mountain until it was completely devoured. That's quite something. No wonder so many seekers of the Dao wanted to eat him after seeing him. It seems he hasn't eaten anything for a long time.

"It seems these seekers of the Way are afraid."

Xu Yi held the iron sword in his arms. He stared ahead, his eyes filled with a sense of emptiness. Where should he go next, or rather, to that place?

He already knew what he needed to do: find the five elemental spiritual objects and establish his foundation as soon as possible. These were the most important things.

Improving his strength would give him more security, but now it's time to take stock of what he's gained.

The two Seekers of the Dao that he had just killed provided a total of 12 years of lifespan. Xu Yi decided to use all of them to deduce the Qingxuan Yuyou Chapter. If he could learn all twelve runes in the Qingxuan Yuyou Chapter, it would be a very powerful weapon. This kind of spell could even become a great divine power on its own when he was cultivating divine powers, which was enough to show that this spell was very strong and was a rare divine power.

Xu Yi simply didn't know what level his Qingxuan Yuyou Chapter belonged to in this world. Without comparison, there was no reference point, which was actually quite uncomfortable.

It's okay, there will always be a chance to prove it, right?

[Expected timeframe: 12 years.]

[Subject of Deduction: Qingxuan Yuyou Chapter]

[Deduction begins...]

[Year 1: You continue the deduction you didn't finish last time, concerning the spell: Soul Binding. This time, with your previous experience, your understanding of the Soul Binding spell is much deeper. In this year, you begin to try using magic...]

...

[Year 4: After four years of hard work, you have finally mastered the Soul Binding Spell and successfully used magic to inscribe it...]

[Year 5: You begin to study the usage of the next spell, which is called: Soul Suppression. The Pure Profound Control Chapter is a spell specifically for spirits, therefore there are many spells for spirits...]

...

[Year 12: You are still researching the so-called Soul-Suppressing Spell, but this time, you can only sketch it out in simple detail and cannot cast it with magic...]

After the deduction was completed, a flash of inspiration suddenly burst forth in Xu Yi's mind, and a black chain condensed in Xu Yi's palm. He had gained some insight.

"Is this the materialization of the Soul-Binding Spell? This chain can pull out a person's soul?!" Xu Yi thought to himself. The previous two spells were materialized after being condensed with magic power.

When the Demon-Slaying Incantation was condensed, it was a gray ball of light in his palm. As for Rejuvenation, Xu Yi hadn't used it yet, but he guessed it would be something similar—a green ball of light. This was Xu Yi's guess; he'd see when he had the chance to use it later.

However, this Soul-Binding Technique has some truly impressive special effects; it's just a matter of how well it performs in practice.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi gathered his magic power in his palm and squeezed hard. The chains emanating black energy instantly collapsed and dissipated into a cloud of black energy.

Using Soul Binding consumes a lot of mana, so it seems that you have to catch your opponent off guard when using it. Using it at close range will definitely produce better results, right?

After dispelling his magic, Xu Yi didn't know where to go. Instead of searching for the Five Elements spiritual objects, he might as well go back and ask Zhang Qiuyu. Perhaps she had better clues. After all, she had seen a wider world, and she would definitely know where to find the Five Elements spiritual objects.

Having made up his mind, Xu Yi decided to return along the same route and go back to find Zhang Qiuyu again. Considering that Zhang Qiuyu had saved Zhang Erniu, he should be able to provide some more clues, right?

It was getting late; the sun had set.

Xu Yi looked up at the sky, wondering what kind of thing the sun was in this world.

The sun sets very quickly, as if it has finished some work and is in a hurry to get off work.

Xu Yi felt that not long after the sun set, the moonlight had already shone on the earth.

In that instant, the setting sun and the moonlight exchanged places, as if a scene had changed after a successful loading process—it was almost a joke.

Xu Yi stood there, stunned. He remained there for a long time, unable to understand what was going on. It was very strange.

Interestingly, the sun and moon here are even more illogical, completely different from what we see in later generations. They have probably been altered. Xu Yi seems to understand why the orbits of the sun and moon were changed; it just looks so jarring.

It's so uncomfortable. It looks so uncomfortable. No wonder 'Xu Yi' had to correct him to look like he did in the future. No wonder Xu Yi felt a sense of familiarity with this place after he transmigrated here. He didn't even feel uncomfortable staying here.

But after arriving here, the simple alternation of day and night made him feel very uncomfortable.

So, does this mean the sun and moon are living things? Surely they can't also be celestial bodies in motion?

So, if immortals can fly and escape into the earth, wouldn't they be able to fly to outer space?

This world was clearly not like that, and for some reason, Xu Yi was so convinced of it.

What is ascension? A space tunnel?

More and more mysteries are arising before Xu Yi.

Xu Yi didn't want to think about it anymore; it was just too much trouble.

After finding Zhang Qiuyu, let's focus on Foundation Establishment first...

Following the route he remembered, Xu Yi began walking towards the direction of Shishui Village.

Meanwhile, in Shishui Village.

Liu the Blind's Residence.

"Zhang Erniu didn't come. Did he not return? Could he have been eaten by the Seekers of the Dao...?"

Liu the Blind looked very slovenly and was not a respectable person at all. He rolled his eyes and looked at everyone with disdain.
