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

"What a wonderful spell!" Xu Yi exclaimed. He was unaware that Shi Chongming had already refined this so-called water-based spiritual object. He himself had not refined any spiritual objects and did not know that refining such a spiritual object could enhance the effects of his spells.

In reality, Shi Chongming did not develop any new gameplay. He simply used the power of aquatic spirits to force out this skill, rather than fusing it with so-called magic.

This skill is similar to a supernatural power; it can be cast instantly.

Moreover, its power was immense, almost preventing Xu Yi from dodging it. Fortunately, the speed of the Rainbow Transformation Technique was extremely fast, and the difference in strength between the two was also significant. When the water arrow reached him, Xu Yi finally felt the pressure of the water arrow. It was very powerful, very powerful, and even made him feel the danger to his life.

For a moment, Xu Yi was also unable to guess this person's cultivation level. Was this the Qi Refining stage?

"Shi Tianming, tell me what realm this is? Qi Refining Stage?" Xu Yi roared. Shi Tianming's strength was too powerful, even absurd. Xu Yi had never encountered someone with such a strong sense of pressure before, except for Dao Ancestor.

However, this was in later times. Back then, Xu Yi was already very strong, and unless he encountered someone with a higher cultivation level than him, he wouldn't have reacted so strongly.

"You've dodged it again, prophet. I never imagined you were this strong." Shi Chongming still addressed Xu Yiwei as the prophet, because this was the very person the prophetic stele wanted to devour, and he wanted to obtain his power through sacrificial means.

However, Xu Yi always felt that this title was strange and made him very uncomfortable.

"Shi Chongming, I never imagined you could refine a water-based spiritual object!" Shi Tianming exclaimed from below. He knew perfectly well that Shi Chongming could not possibly kill him, because the prophecy stele still needed his power to refine it.

If Shi Chongming brings back two dead bodies, he will still face punishment. And that punishment will be far more severe than what he initially thought.

This prophecy stele has a penchant for consuming the souls of people. After capturing humans or cultivators, the Five Poisons Sect prioritizes purifying their souls and feeding them to the prophecy stele. They then use the remaining bodies to test medicines, or vice versa. In reality, few people care about these people.

No one cares about their life or death, unless they are from a powerful and influential cultivator family, they wouldn't be qualified to investigate this place.

The existence of the Five Poisons Sect has always been a fig leaf to cover up its dirty deeds, and what controls all of this is the so-called prophetic stone tablet.

Shi Tianming finally came to his senses; he had long forgotten the glory days of the Five Poisons Sect.

This is so disgusting. As long as you capture souls to pay tribute to the Prophecy Stone, the Prophecy Stone will provide you with some useful information according to your needs. However, in recent years, the Prophecy Stone's greed has become increasingly high, and it has also begun to directly affect people's consciousness.

It has affected some people's behavior, and it's getting increasingly frightening.

"Senior brother has already refined a water-based spiritual object, but Xu Yi hasn't received a single one. No, he hasn't received any." Shi Tianming thought to himself. Xu Yi doesn't have any of the five elements' spiritual objects, so his Foundation Establishment process will be very difficult, even though he hasn't established his foundation yet.

However, this is still a long way off for them. Foundation Establishment requires five kinds of Five Elements Spiritual Objects, and Xu Yi has not collected any of them yet. Shi Chongming has collected quite a few, but his talent is limited, and the refining time is very, very slow.

Moreover, the Foundation Establishment process cannot be rushed. It requires refining all five elemental spiritual objects within one hundred days to succeed. This difficulty means that you must find all five elemental spiritual objects before you can begin refining them; otherwise, all your efforts will be in vain.

This is something no one wants to see, and something no one wants to experience.

Few people can withstand the pain of failing to establish a foundation, and the survival rate after failure is not very high; out of ten people attempting to establish a foundation, only two succeed.

It all came down to his own perseverance.

"Senior brother has gone mad with qi deviation, is there any hope?" Shi Tianming kept thinking from below. He had no strength or equipment left, and he could only watch Xu Yi fight Shi Chongming. He was helpless. If he could, he would definitely help Xu Yi so that both of them could live better lives.

Shi Tianming kept reviewing everything that happened during his battle with Xu Yi, including the spells Xu Yi used. Soon, he figured out one thing: Xu Yi seemed to have only used these two spells to defeat him.

That's right, it's that gray ball of light!

"Xu Yi, use your spell! The gray spell!" Shi Tianming shouted from below. This spell could definitely suppress Shi Chongming. When he was possessed by a demon, at the very last moment, he could no longer speak or move, and his consciousness gradually fell into a coma.

However, when he could still feel things, it was a flame burning in his heart that brought him back to consciousness.

The flame that Xu Yi had gathered in his hand was the flame that he wanted to end his life. If he had died then, he probably would have had no regrets. But now that he was clear-headed, he didn't want to die, he didn't dare to die, he was afraid of dying.

He even regretted sacrificing his soul. Power, wealth, and all those pursuits were no longer important to him. Nothing was more important than his own life.

Every time he thought of this, Shi Tianming would gasp for breath, thankful for his narrow escape. At the same time, he was also worried about Xu Yi. Xu Yi probably didn't even know how to proceed on the path to Foundation Establishment. However, the Shi Chongming in front of him had truly taken an important step on the path to Foundation Establishment.

Once you successfully take the first step, the second, third, and even fourth steps can be taken gradually.

Xu Yi was still fighting Shi Chongming in the air. Shi Chongming's movements were also very fast, belonging to close combat techniques. Xu Yi was approached by Shi Chongming several times, but fortunately, there were no major problems.

Although Xu Yi's technique is a kind of escape technique, it is not as fast as a movement technique when used. However, once he uses it, it will be a speed that Shi Chongming can never surpass.

Shi Chongming sensed how difficult Xu Yi was to deal with. He had also exhausted a lot of his magical power, but Xu Yi still seemed to be handling things with ease and his magical power seemed to be plentiful.

"Xu Yi, is it? The prophet. I didn't expect you to last so long under my command?" Shi Chongming said breathlessly, looking for a moment to rest.

Unexpectedly, just as they stopped, Xu Yi's evil-slaying spell caught up with them.
