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

My loyal fans, I'm starving because I haven't eaten today! The latest chapter of "Becoming the True Lord of All Laws Starting from Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio" has been released!

"Young Master Xu, wait a moment. Do you need guards? My Liu family can't let you go into danger alone."

Liu Yun suddenly called out to Xu Yi. This was a well-intentioned reminder, and he had no other ulterior motives.

After hearing this, Xu Yi shook his head. His strength had already reached the peak of Qi Refining. Apart from the ancestor of the Liu family who could protect him, everyone else was still a bit lacking.

"Thank you for your kindness, Patriarch Liu, but I really don't need it."

Liu Yun nodded, cupped his hands in farewell, and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave, Young Master Xu."

Liu Tian also bowed and said goodbye, "Farewell, Fellow Daoist Xu."

......

Xu Yi knew the location of the ancient mine because Liu Yun told him. When Liu Yun gave Xu Yi the map of the Eastern Region of Canghai Realm, he also gave him this map. It was a map of Ya City, and the location of the ancient mine was marked on it.

He left the Liu family and headed towards the location marked on the map. It was a full half-day's journey from here to Ya City, based on Xu Yi's current speed. After successfully advancing to the Qi Refining Perfection stage, his personal qualities had improved significantly, and his current pace was actually quite fast.

However, as he kept running and rushing, Xu Yi still felt very strange. If he had time, he would definitely want to get a book on escape techniques. In a battle, if he didn't use escape techniques, wouldn't he be at a disadvantage? That would be absolutely unacceptable. Or he could find some movement techniques that would allow him to teleport for a short period of time.

These are all necessary. Having powerful spells alone doesn't actually account for that much in a battle, unless your spell can instantly kill your opponent. If that's the case, then it's indeed terrifying.

However, in battles between cultivators of the same level, such world-destroying spells are practically impossible to use; only cultivators of lower levels can employ such simple and brutal spells.

Xu Yi also admitted that his cultivation level might have reached a bottleneck, and the techniques he practiced were very strong, not belonging to the Qi Refining stage at all. If his techniques were used to deal with Qi Refining stage cultivators, it would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. However, Xu Yi's accuracy was not high.

Unless the opponent really stays there and doesn't move, allowing you to hit them, it's actually possible. As long as Xu Yi can hit them, no Qi Refining stage cultivator can survive his spell.

Unfortunately, this situation is almost non-existent.

Or perhaps it's simply impossible for it to exist. Anyone would run away, and Xu Yi is no exception. He needs to earn some spirit stones, and not only that, he also needs to buy some cultivation techniques.

Xu Yi saw all of these things in Liu's study.

The place they were in was called the Eastern Region of the Vast Ocean Realm. It was the lowest-ranking city, practically a small border town, with no value whatsoever.

Not only that, Xu Yi also learned a lot about cultivation realms.

This world has more than just Qi cultivation; there are also body refinement, sword practice, and so on. Each cultivation system has its own characteristics.

For example, the first stage of a body-refining cultivator is called the Body Refining Period, which is a stage where the cultivator polishes their own flesh and blood. After reaching the second stage, it is Blood Refining, which involves refining the blood in the whole body to make one's lifespan longer and the level of life higher.

The first realm of sword cultivators is the Sword Apprentice, the lowest level in sword practice. At this stage, sword cultivators can only practice some simple sword techniques and achieve things like releasing sword energy.

These are the three major cultivation systems in the human realm, while the Canghai Realm is just one of the four planes of the human realm.

This world is so vast that Xu Yi felt that the comparison between this and later generations was simply absurd.

Why did such a vast world become like this in later generations? Xu Yi had no idea what had happened during these days.

However, there is still plenty of time to explore all of this.

After figuring things out, Xu Yi set off towards the location of the ancient mine.

After traveling at full speed for a while, Xu Yi was a little tired and had to stop to rest.

This made him feel somewhat emotional, as this was the first time he had ever been so tired from traveling, which was quite unusual.

However, it's good to rest a bit, so that he won't be too weak to deal with any situation that might arise later. Xu Yi also kept himself on high alert.

When you're out in the world, you can't do without some trump cards, but Xu Yi really didn't have any.

He didn't even have a single hidden treasure.

The people in this world are very skilled at crafting magical artifacts. Unlike the world of immortal swords, only sword cultivators care about the grade of a sword.

Could the sword behind him have been forged by a swordsman? It couldn't have just appeared beside him out of nowhere; that's highly illogical. Let's not dwell on that for now; it's pointless anyway.

At this pace, it might not be long before we arrived. Looking at the dark mountain path in front of him, Xu Yi gritted his teeth and went in anyway.

This mountain is inhabited by demonic beasts. Humans can cultivate, and so can demonic beasts.

Xu Yi knew this, and he had even inquired about it beforehand. It seemed that there were Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts lurking in the forest.

However, this is just hearsay. Nighttime is the time that monsters like the most, as they have night vision and can see very clearly.

Almost every demon beast that has achieved a certain level of cultivation can see the environment at night clearly. This is a very regular phenomenon, and Liu Yun doesn't know how to explain it. He thinks it's normal because these demon beasts have always been like this since he came into contact with them, so Xu Yi doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

However, in the book that Xu Yi saw, most of the demonic beasts were actually very fast. They were born with extremely fast speeds, which is why most cultivators were willing to have a fast-moving demonic beast as a mount. For example, some Fiery Horses were demonic beasts whose speed was almost comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.

Moreover, it has a long battery life. I saw one in Liu Jiaxuyi's house, but it looked quite old.

At the time, Liu Yun even offered to give the horse to Xu Yi, but Xu Yi refused. Raising the horse would be a considerable expense, and Xu Yi didn't have any extra money. He wouldn't choose to make things even worse for himself.

In the darkness, Xu Yi traversed through layers of mountains and forests. He heard the howling of wild beasts deep within the forest, but the sound quickly faded away.

Fortunately, this route doesn't pass through the depths of the mountains and forests, which suggests that there really are some powerful monsters deep in the mountains and forests.

Monsters are valuable from head to toe. If you can hunt some, you can bring them to Cliff City and sell them to restaurants. If you can keep hunting monsters, it could become a very lucrative business.

These thoughts flashed through Xu Yi's mind, but he quickly dismissed them.

These methods didn't work on him.
