XIANXIA: WHY AM I HERE? - Chapter 256 - 256 Unexpected Gains

256 Unexpected Gains

Wang and Ruruo were sitting in the middle of the cave space, but Wang seemed to have lost interest in the meditation in this place. He stood up and started practicing his nine-turn golden body art.

After some time the couple finally decided to leave this place, even though the place could allow one to have no other external disturbances, Wang just realized he could not take advantage of the place for his promotion in the realm at all. But this did not seem to bother him at all, rather he seemed too calm as the ability to have an effect of time acceleration seemed attractive more.

As the two were walking from the place toward the exit,

“Ruruo, you should go back first, I’m going to take some time to set up some formation. This place is indeed very useful to us, so I’ll use some means to seal the entrance with a formation and hide it away, we should be able to access it from our territory as long as a teleportation formation is set up.” As he said this he seemed to be looking around and some ideas flashed in his head.

Compared to the past, when the couple had just arrived on this planet, Wang did not perhaps have that extensive knowledge of formations and could only make teleportation formations from the arrays and formation maps he collected. But over the years, his formation skills and knowledge have evolved to a very high level. Setting up some array is not an issue for him at all, but rather, he wants to also set up a formation to cover up the cave, this is going to require some time, and thus the reason he did not wish to rush back yet. With the current strength possed by Ruruo she should be able to protect their territory as those with higher realms than them would have no interest in that place they live.

Ruruo nodded and when the couple arrived at the exit, she stepped into the sky disappearing while Wang, on the other hand, seemed to be lost in thought.

Looking at the back of the figure leaving, Wang felt that something was indeed wrong here. In any way, there indeed should not be any reason why a place that seems to be operating out of the rules or in a way cutting off the rules around it to exist. Wang might not have told Ruruo the fact that he had just encountered his mirror reflection and fought, and now he was certain that this place is not as simple as it seemed on the surface. In that case, the only thing he could do is to go further than he had been before. But before that, he needed to set up some formation on this entire town and then lead it to suppress the cave using the power borrowed from the world.

This is also the reason he did not let Ruruo stay as it would take a long time and this is not some simple issue. Basically, this process would take time and their place was left with only Ruruo, in that case, she might as well go back and sit in town. That would make him feel at ease and when she had already disappeared from his line of sight, he seemed to feel some unseen pressure weighing on him especially when he thought about stronger beings seemingly sealed in this world. He was not sure how to look at this situation but a huge part of him was very uneasy.

In this way, he had a family and in the current period of his life since he descended to this Primitive world he has been living more in comfort it was not until he faced those mirror reflections that he realized this and knows that if he continues like this then someday he would lack the ability to even protect his family.

…..

The situation in this world is becoming more and more unpredictable and he has seen the consequences of assuming the tallest individuals would hold up the sky. This is just an illusion and even in that period they survived the destruction of their world due to being in a different space, but the numerous creatures in the world did not escape even people he had considered close to such as Ago might have died along with the world.

In the same way, if his family did not insist on going with him, he probably might not have seen them in the end. Since that is how the world is and the assumption of the strong holding up the sky is something he disagrees with completely. How can a person standing at a certain height and pursuing even a higher level risk their life for something with no benefits for them or at all?

The most important thing is that the situation in the higher dimensions is becoming more and more chaotic, the creatures from there will in no time start acting in a tyrannical manner. Perhaps at the moment, they are on guard against each other but this will not last long. So he did not want to deceive himself but rather thought of the most rational way out.

“I must improve my realm and combat power, in the same way, it would be better to grasp a complete law as quickly as possible favorable, and thus this place can help me make up for one of the things, and hence it is no longer necessary to worry about issues of foundation and accumulation.” He was obviously thinking about the issue of time being close to eight times in the hidden cave to that of the outside world.

Things have come to this he could only calm himself down, and when he sat down he started to relax while observing the changes that had happened to his body.

His mind power seemed to have completely turned into some golden dome covering the figure that resembled him in the sea of consciousness. This change was huge and he could already feel the direction he has to take next. His mind-state had already gone to the extreme, and in a way, he could completely utilize the abilities that come with altering reality.

After clearing his mind the area he was sitting cross-legged seemed to start changing. The ground around him rose up and this change seemed to be happening all around the cave. A huge expanse of land rose up to a towering mountain peak. A golden force that seemed to have formed something like a field could be seen in Wang’s eyes. Sitting on the top of the mountain peak, Wang could actually see that the use of mind power was more than this.

A huge formation appeared in his mind and the golden force seemed to have imprinted the same force on the mountain, this is indeed impressive and even after he saw all this happen he did not stop trying the capabilities of the mind power.

This also allowed him to throw all the pressure that was mounting up on his mind away, the more he used the mind power, new discoveries were made. He could see that the dome in his consciousness was an embryonic form of some world. He began to contemplate, the world array he has seen several times.

In the past, he did not think much about it but now he seemed to think of something about the cultivation and his understanding seemed to open another mystery to him.

On the mountain peak, the aura around Wang started to change qualitatively, but he seemed to be still thinking about something important.

“In the study of formations, I failed to realize that perhaps one can also use them as a foundation to enter the level of law state. Now that I think about it, the higher the level of world array one can set up the higher the understanding of numerous laws. But the requirement to enter a law state is to use one law as a foundation. Well, that is not attractive to me at all, let’s take the same direction that Ruruo took using the divine abilities to connect to law.” Wang had more than a dozen divine abilities and when his thoughts reached this level, the area around his body was distorted.

“Once I step into the realm of law state with this method, I might also be stronger because of having more than one law comprehended and my soul will be nourished with them strengthening faster. Other than that the impact on the actual combat power would be something else.” Indeed the soul level is dependent on the cultivation of laws in this realm. The key focus is the soul and Wang is not worried about it.

In this way, his soul seemed to have already gone way beyond those at the same level, with any advancements, the distance would only continue to improve. But this is a good thing as the stronger the soul, the easier to manipulate laws.

Having decided to do this, he did not even shift his position from the mountain peak at all, the area covering the entire mountain by several thousand miles seemed to be covered in formations and runes.
