CHAPTER 693: THE LAWS OF HEAVEN AND EARTH

As the sixth thunderbolt descended, it directly struck Wang

As the sixth thunderbolt descended, it directly struck Wang Hong's body, and his Nascent Soul suddenly radiated brightly, enduring all the power of the thunder.

Once the thunder dissipated, revealing Wang Hong's true Nascent Soul, at this moment, his Nascent Soul still appeared somewhat translucent, yet there were no apparent injuries.

In the distance, amidst a cluster of white clouds, three Cultivators were observing the scene of Wang Hong's tribulation from afar.

"To withstand the sixth thunderbolt and only weaken slightly, could it be that he has already comprehended a law of heaven and earth?" one Cultivator pondered.

"This can't be possible, right? Generally, Soul Transformation Cultivators have to undergo hundreds, even thousands of years, to even touch upon the surface of the laws. He has just ascended to Soul Transformation, how could he comprehend the power of the laws so quickly?"

"If it's not the power of the laws, how else could he defend against the radiance of the sixth thunderbolt?"

"In fact, even some profound techniques are nothing more than simple applications of the laws. Techniques that can achieve such power are already no different from the laws themselves."

"Speaking of which, despite our few friends advancing to Soul Transformation for nearly a thousand years, none of us have been able to comprehend any power of the laws."

"Sigh! It's just that our foundations are too shallow. If we could possess a treasure containing the laws of heaven and earth, and contemplate it frequently, it would be much easier. I estimate we could comprehend some within a few hundred years."

"It's difficult! Such treasures are extremely rare, and they are mostly held by ancient forces with long-standing heritage."

"I heard that most of these treasures containing the laws of heaven and earth leaked from the upper realm. In this realm, only a few appeared at the very beginning, and then they disappeared."

"At the beginning of a realm's birth, various laws of heaven and earth manifest, leaving imprints on some Spiritual Objects. Coupled with the abundant Spirit Qi in the initial stage of a realm, that's why there were numerous high-tier Spiritual Objects, and it was relatively easier to achieve enlightenment."

"Since this young friend below has successfully crossed the thunder tribulation, he can be considered one of us. Should we go and make acquaintance?"

"Since we have nothing urgent recently, why not pay a visit? It's good to get familiar with each other. It might come in handy in the future."

"Then let's settle down in Harbor City below for now. We can visit him when he holds the Soul Transformation ceremony."

The three Soul Transformation Cultivators discussed for a while, then suppressed their cultivation levels and secluded themselves in Harbor City.

The Cultivation World is indeed perilous. Unbeknownst to the Cultivators of Harbor City, three Soul Transformation experts had joined their ranks.

If they accidentally stepped on someone's toes and forgot to apologize, who knows if they would be killed.

After Wang Hong crossed the Soul Transformation thunder tribulation, he closed up for another year to stabilize his realm before finally emerging.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on reaching the Soul Transformation tier!" Wood Fairy was the first to salute Wang Hong and offer her congratulations.

Soon, the others also arrived to congratulate Wang Hong. With this, the Great Chu Immortal Nation could now be counted among the top forces.

"Your Majesty! We plan to hold a Soul Transformation ceremony. Do you have any instructions?" Xu Lun stepped forward to report. Whenever someone ascended to Soul Transformation, holding a ceremony was customary in the Cultivation World, and Qizhou Island was no exception.

"Handle everything as you see fit. If any issues arise, report back to me," Wang Hong replied.

The Soul Transformation ceremony is akin to announcing to the world, proclaiming one's own strength and gaining recognition from the Cultivation World.

Each major force in the Cultivation World has its own established sphere of influence. Currently, Qizhou Island only consists of one small island, along with the annexation of the Wan Kui secret realm.

Currently, Wang Hong has no intention of expanding outward. As long as he can manage these two places well, it's already quite good.

After entering Soul Transformation, his Divine Sense has become even stronger than that of a mid-stage Soul Transformation cultivator, encompassing everything within a radius of over a hundred miles.

Within his Divine Sense range, Wang Hong could see that the surroundings of King's City were filled with high-tier spirit fields, where various spirit fruits and Spiritual Herbs were grown.

Clearly, the previous large-scale development of Qizhou Island had already shown initial results. In the future, it would continuously provide immense wealth for the Great Chu Immortal Nation.

And this is just one location on Qizhou Island. There's also the newly occupied Wan Kui secret realm, which has a total area even larger than Qizhou Island, with numerous resources inside.

Next, the others reported to Wang Hong about what had happened during his seclusion.

They knew that during his seclusion, his subordinates had won two major battles, defeating many forces and successfully defending the Wan Kui secret realm.

Moreover, they had also repelled attacks from the Demon Clan, killing hundreds of four-tier Demon Clan members and even one five-tier Demon Clan member, which could be considered extraordinary feats.

This was the most comforting aspect for Wang Hong. When he first established his own force, he only had a few dozen subordinates with mediocre aptitudes, relying entirely on the abundant resources produced by his Space.

At that time, his subordinates struggled to hold their own in battles.

Now the situation was completely different. Even in his absence, they could win two wars against formidable enemies simultaneously.

Furthermore, with the current level of development on Qizhou Island, the resources produced within the same timeframe could even surpass those from his Space.

In the future, apart from a few resources, most of the resources would no longer require him to personally obtain them.

From now on, Wang Hong wouldn't need to worry about most of the affairs of the Great Chu Immortal Nation. His subordinates were capable enough to handle them.

At this moment, the group led Wang Hong to a dedicated warehouse to inspect the spoils of war from this time.

The exterior of this warehouse didn't seem particularly large or impressive, but the Space inside was extremely vast.

As they entered the warehouse, the first thing that caught their eyes were the corpses of hundreds of four-tier Demonic Beasts.

Although more than two hundred of these four-tier Demonic Beasts had been corroded by poisonous mist that day, timely rescue efforts had preserved most of their materials.

Each corpse of a four-tier Demon Clan member was a huge fortune, and there were more than three hundred of them here.

If this had been on the Hezhou continent in the past, with this fortune, it would have been more than enough to support the operation of a large Sect.

"Your Majesty, the five-tier Demonic Beast is inside," Xu Lun said, pointing towards a wall. He then cast several techniques at the wall, causing it to slowly blur and reveal a portal.

Behind the portal was another Space, where a golden-colored Demon Bull, thirty zhang tall, stood, with a golden giant hammer placed beside it.

Although this Demon Bull had been slain, its wounds had already healed as if they were new, indicating that it still harbored vitality.

However, its demon core had been taken out, and its Nascent Soul had long left its body. Otherwise, this Demon Bull would definitely still be alive.
