Mu Ran stood in front of the frozen figure of the giant dragon deep within his consciousness, a place where other cultivators grew their dao bases.
The dao base was a very flexible concept. It took the form of what one believed it to be, provided that they had enough control over their cultivation techniques.
As someone who had cultivated the extra, special layer known as the zeroth layer of physique transformation realm, Mu Ran's unorthodox dao base was the living proof of this...

"That bastard, I'll teach him a lesson that he would remember for the rest of his life."
"Shut up when I'm applying medicine on you, you fucking dolt," said the head of the medicine pavilion and slapped him on the back of his head to shut him up. Shen Kai had been growling those same words ever since he had returned after partially failing in his mission.
Feeling the sting of a slap from somebody at the late stages of the soul reformation realm, Shen Kai instantly swallowe...

The bodies littering across the ground outside the portal were still warm and breathing. The old man carefully stepped around them, carrying a large coffin like object on his shoulders.
The the walls of the coffin was made of smooth black glass, with countless graffiti drawn on the material. The most conspicuous was one showing a dragon coiling around a human, whose head had been blurred. If one looked closely, they could see two different faces overlapping on the blurry surface above...

"Eh? Somebody is breaking through? At this time?"
An old man walked toward the sounds of clashing spells and furious shouts inside the jungle. His attire didn't fit in with the surroundings. With a form fitting black robe that flashed all sorts of gleaming medals and bowl shaped hat on his head.
Strangely enough, nobody noticed his appearance near the battle. His approach toward the centre of the countless spells was completely uninterrupted and unhurried. The spells never hit ...

Wait a damn minute, where did these 'demonic cultivators' come from? I am the demonic cultivator here! How come I haven't received any news of my sect members coming here?

Various vehement exclamations were livening up the woods. With the gentle touch of sunlight draped over the large, sparse trees and chirping birds, it made for a memorable scene. Especially to Han Xuhan, who continued to bask in the warmth ...

Qian Yun couldn't help but stare at the Seal of Myriad Laws revolving above in the sky.
Had something gone wrong with it? Even though it was beginning to go out of the main body's control, he could still sense that the major law fragments that nullified all the newly made law fragments were still properly active and running.
"Write down a law fragment and try to activate it," Qian Yun ordered one of his vessels while he kept his focus on those law fragments in parti...

"So, now that I've blabbered on for so long, explaining in detail about how I ended up here," Xuhan used his chin to point at himself by nodding while he spoke, "how about you clear up some of my suspicions and explain how you ended up there." He gestured at where Qian Yun sat.
"Don't tell me my theories are actually entirely true and you've become a puppet of whoever has been suppressed here by the circle of laws, brother Yun."

Qian Yun had never seen anyone be so happy while explaining exactly how he had been ( figuratively ) screwed.
Han Xuhan looked immensely satisfied after laughing crazily for a good few seconds. Still, his explanation seemed nowhere near satisfactory.
"Even if you had such suspicions, it's impossible for you to just figure out the existence of the trap by simply relying on your imaginary theories. I suppose there are more to the explanation?" He asked after Han Xuhan had finish...

If one were to ask Han Xuhan how unfortunate he was, he would answer that he was quite unlucky, but nothing to wallow about constantly. After all, even if he had been screwed countless times, he was still having the time of his life playing detective in super mysterious realms and researching all sorts of interesting cultivation techniques. How many humans from earth would be jealous of him if they heard about his fun adventures?
Moreover, there were many others whose fate was dozens ...

Han Xuhan had not expected Mu Ran to be conscious when he had picked him up while escaping.
But it wasn't much of a surprise. At the situation Mu Ran was in when he had been struck by the lightning, feigning weakness and pretending to fall unconscious was quite a logical choice. Han Xuhan might have chosen a similar path had he been in Mu Ran's shoes.
Even though Mu Ran generally came off as rather idiotic, Xuhan had to admit that he had a talent for battles.

"Martial sister Zhou, at least make your appearance..." Xuhan muttered as he gazed at her undead army being beaten up and chased away.
Things were not supposed to be like this. Yuen Zhou should have come before the rest of the cultivators taking the third test could. Did she mess up somehow?
The window for movement Xuhan had marked was getting tinier by the second. Qian Yun had somehow managed to enslave all the cultivators except him, Mu Ran and Yuen Zhou. If those enslaved cu...

Han Xuhan's answer made Qian Yun do a double take. He instantly whipped around to gaze behind him, at the platform hidden behind a thin layer of fog.
As far as he remembered, there were only two cultivators whose judgement still displayed the pending status after he had returned from the test hall. One was Mu Ran, who was now lying down a few feet away, unconscious. The other one was... Yuen Zhou.
Now that he thought about it, he should have known something was up when he had ta...

"Underling Xuhan ? Fellow cultivator Qian Yun ? What are you two doing over there ?"
The voice that rang through the fog belonged to Mu Ran. Earlier when Qian Yun had taken a glance at the leaderboard, he had seen Mu Ran's judgement still showing the pending status. From what he had observed, Mu Ran was not particularly bright when it came to creativity. So it was normal for him to take a while to be done with the test. He hadn't thought much of it.
Anyone within the third ...

The flash of violet light was blinding, and the only reason Han Xuhan didn't momentarily lose his vision was due to the fact that he had been squatting on the ground observing the undead squirrel that now belonged to Yuen Zhou's army, with his back facing the source of the light.
Sensing the change behind him, he immediately jumped up and turned to look at the platform.
The lone figure of Qian Yun stood in front of the platform of Sentient Contracts. Han Xuhan breathed a sigh of...

Yuen Zhou looked intently at the law fragment she had carved on the ground while replenishing her qi reserve. She hadn't learned the language of laws her past life. But still, she felt that all the law fragments she could possibly come up with using the provided alphabets would be a bit different from what one would expect from a contract type law.
Is it me who is lacking ? Or are the provided alphabets just not suitable for the creation of a contract type law fragment ?

Even though it was everyone's intention to take part in the third test to become a real cultivator of law techniques by entering one of the five inheritance paths, when their most hated captor announced the reward, they felt another wave of anger and hatred coursing through their veins.

Han Xuhan felt great, to be honest. This expedition outside the sect was slowly turning from a life and death struggle into a relaxed stroll. He had two bodyguards now, Mu Ran and Yuen Zhou, both of whom were super OP in their own way. Qian Yun could still be trusted with most issues. Zhanxian still didn't know that he had painted its home. They had both living and undead meat shields around them. Shen Kai would get screwed massively in the future unless he changed his name.
All was well.<...

The sun's approach had coloured the horizon from where he stood. Pine town was just ahead, and his targets were supposedly inside the woods on the opposite side of the small town, exploring a world fragment from what he could perceive.
The world fragment hidden within that place was an oddity.

So they had slowly explored their way, doing their best to avoid any other cultivators. Han Xuhan wasnt particularly interested in the inheritance. And Qian Yun wasnt powerful enough to take on op...
