Divine King of Honour-Chapter 1435: Lu Shan’s Request

In the following days, Xu Nian lived a very peaceful life.

Most of the time, he would stand at the bow of the ship, engaging in insight cultivation.

Occasionally, there would be immortal beasts attracted by Gongsun Wan’er, and without exception, all of these beasts were slain by Xu Nian.

With Xu Nian’s current strength, any immortal beast below mid-stage Immortal King was no match for him.

Fortunately, they were quite lucky, and so far, hadn’t attracted any late-stage Immortal King level beasts.

"Buzz!"

With a thought from Xu Nian, ten incredibly sharp swords manifested directly in front of him.

These ten swords, without exception, all contained a very strong Wind Attribute Extreme Point Penetration Law.

"Why is it that my law manifestation has never been able to reach the Perfect Realm? It’s said that law manifestation perfection allows one to incorporate both the law power and law domain into the manifestation item, yet I can’t even integrate the law power. Otherwise, its power could definitely be at least doubled."

Xu Nian mused to himself.

Incorporating the law power into a law manifestation item is an extremely difficult task.

Not to mention directly integrating the law domain.

"It seems my previous law comprehension was too smooth, which is why encountering a bottleneck now feels so difficult."

Xu Nian mused to himself.

Others encountering law comprehension would face various bottlenecks.

Encountering bottlenecks is normal; like Xu Nian’s previous smooth sailing is not normal.

"It’s okay, I’ll keep comprehending. I don’t believe I can’t break through." Xu Nian mused to himself.

So Xu Nian continued to try integrating the law power into the law manifestation item.

Of course, the result naturally ended in failure.

But Xu Nian was not in a hurry and continued cultivating slowly.

Time passed in a flash, and a month went by.

This month, Xu Nian still made some gains.

Although his law didn’t break through, both the Divine Demon Avatar and his true self had broken through to the late-stage Golden Immortal level.

This also meant his strength had increased significantly.

During this period, Xu Nian also visited Han Xiaoxiao at the Chaos Divine Palace.

However, there was still no sign of Han Xiaoxiao awakening.

But Xu Nian could feel that Han Xiaoxiao’s soul was undergoing a transformative change.

In terms of soul strength, Han Xiaoxiao seemed to have surpassed the current Xu Nian.

It should be known that Xu Nian’s soul strength had reached the Golden Immortal Peak, and was just a step away from the Immortal King Realm.

Yet Han Xiaoxiao’s soul had surpassed his, which was truly astonishing.

However, what specific changes had occurred might not be known until Han Xiaoxiao awakens.

"Brother Xu Nian, you previously mentioned that the use of law power shouldn’t just infinitely consume Immortal Essence, but rather analyze all possible movements of the opponent. But how can one precisely control the opponent’s trajectory?"

Captain Lu Shan approached with excitement and asked.

"To predict all of an opponent’s actions, you need continuous practice and deep comprehension of Heaven and Earth Laws, using the motion trajectory of the law attribute elements to predict," Xu Nian said.

"Using the motion patterns of attribute elements to predict the opponent’s trajectory?" Lu Shan fell into contemplation and then seemed to gain some insight.

"Thank you, brother Xu Nian. With your guidance during this time, my law power has greatly improved. Here, this is my treasured Immortal Brew, Drunken Immortal Brew, have a taste?" Lu Shan said with a hearty laugh.

When he finished, he handed Xu Nian a wine jug.

Xu Nian took a sip and immediately felt a flame burning within his body.

This flame eventually turned into a stream of pure Immortal Essence, flowing through his whole body.

"Good wine, this Drunken Immortal Brew is indeed extraordinary," Xu Nian sincerely praised.

"Haha, receiving such praise from brother Xu Nian is truly my honor. I also figured out that you’re here to protect that pair of siblings, right? And encountering immortal beasts frequently lately is also because of them?" Lu Shan said with a smile.

"What, brother Lu Shan plans to kick us off the ship?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.

"Of course not, having brother Xu Nian on board makes us safer, and watching you fight is truly my honor. You’re so powerful even as a Golden Immortal; I can only imagine how terrifying you would be as an Immortal King," Lu Shan said with a smile.

Xu Nian smiled slightly.

During this time, he had indeed offered Lu Shan quite a bit of guidance.

It’s important to note that for loose cultivators like Lu Shan, engaging in insight cultivation without a proper mentor’s guidance means the path is extremely difficult.

"Brother Lu Shan, just say what’s on your mind, no need to beat around the bush," Xu Nian said with a smile.

He knew that Lu Shan’s compliments, gestures of goodwill, and offering of wine surely wasn’t for idle chat—there must be a request involved.

"Brother Xu Nian, you’re indeed sharp; I won’t beat around the bush. I came this time to ask for your help," Lu Shan said with a smile.

"Who do you want me to kill?" Xu Nian asked.

"You see, we are about to pass by Tianque Pass, where there’s a group of Immortal Thieves, numbering over a thousand. Their leader is a late-stage Immortal King expert who has reached the Law Manifestation Success Realm. Every time we pass by, we have to hand over a large sum of money, and because of this, we hardly earn anything, sometimes even lose money. This time, we don’t have much cargo, so I wonder if I could ask brother Xu Nian to deal with this Immortal Thieves leader for us," Lu Shan said with a smile.

"Are you sure their leader is at the Law Manifestation Success Realm?" Xu Nian asked.

"Yes, before one of our caravan’s Immortal King experts fought against him, and what he displayed was indeed at the Law Manifestation Success Realm," Lu Shan nodded.

"Late-stage Immortal King, Law Manifestation Success? Alright, I’ll give it a try," Xu Nian thought and then nodded.

Law Manifestation Success, he could probably give it a try.

Law Manifestation Great Success, with his current strength, he truly wouldn’t be an opponent.

After all, in terms of cultivation realm, they were a whole grand realm apart.

Even if his law comprehension reached Law Manifestation Great Success, and even with a higher law level than his opponent, bridging such a significant gap would still be very difficult.

"Alright, with brother Xu Nian on our side, we’ll surely pass through Tianque Pass safely this time. Besides, we might not even need to engage in a fight, just push him back by making him feel threatened," Lu Shan said with a smile.

"Bring another ten jugs of such wine," Xu Nian said with a smile.

"Ten jugs is too much, I only have three," Lu Shan showed his true nature as a crafty businessman.

"Nine jugs!" Xu Nian said.

"Four jugs?" Lu Shan quickly retorted.

"Cut the nonsense, eight jugs, not one less," Xu Nian said.

"Alright, eight jugs it is!" Lu Shan agreed immediately.

Then with a wave of his hand, eight jugs of wine appeared in front of Xu Nian.

Lu Shan then turned around and ran.

Xu Nian saw this and realized that asking for ten jugs was way too cheap for him.
