I’m A Wasteland Giant

Chapter 204: Chapter 203 Closed-door Cultivation!

Translator: 549690339

“This Secret Realm is specifically for comprehending the Gold Element Laws. It contains a large amount of Original Law. If you are talented enough and lucky, you can cultivate very well here…”

The old man continued, “However, this Secret Realm has a side effect. Every time you comprehend a mystery of the laws, there is a certain probability that you will lose consciousness…”

“Once lost, you will be transported out by the protective mechanism of the Secret Realm…”

“So, how long you can stay will depend on your willpower and luck!”

Kong Luo nodded and turned to Du Gang, saying, “You must persevere in there. I stayed in there long enough to comprehend 20 mysterious laws before coming out!”

Du Gang was taken aback, not knowing whether this was a large or small number.

At that moment, a voice came from behind him.

“Those who can understand 20 mysteries of the laws are the crown jewels of heaven, and even on Penglai Island, they are rare talents!”

Du Gang turned his head to see a middle- aged man leading another young man over.

“Instructor Hang, you have brought new people again?

Kong Luo saw the newcomer and smiled in greeting.

The middle-aged man nodded and turned to the young man he had brought with him, saying, “Kong Ruo, you are lucky to have the Gold Element attributes. Just in time for the family to open the Secret Realm to Ancient God, so you can take advantage of it…”

“You heard what the elder said, right? Inside, the more mysteries of the law you comprehend, the more you should try to comprehend. Don’t lose your consciousness too early…”

Upon hearing this, Kong Ruo nodded and curiously asked, “Instructor Hang, how many mysteries of the laws did you comprehend the longest time here?”

On hearing this, Instructor Hang glanced at Kong Luo and calmly said, “I was okay then, I only understood 28 mysteries of the laws…”

“You’re amazing!”

Kong Ruo looked admiringly and asked, “So, what is the record for this Secret Realm?”

“Don’t overreach yourself!”

Instructor Hang scolded him.

Kong Ruo immediately nodded in agreement.

Then Instructor Hang smiled again, “But, your attitude is not bad, aiming to break the record…”

“This Gold Element Secret Realm is a very important realm within our family. The historical record should be 35 mysteries of the laws, which is the record set by our youth training team leader, Kong Zhen…”

“Ah, was the record set by the team leader?”

Kong Ruo apparently admired the team leader very much, and his eyes were different now.

Kong Luo smiled and turned to Du Gang, “Du Gang, I hope you can surpass me and understand more than 20 mysteries of the laws…”

“Cough, cough!”

The old man who was guarding the Secret Realm coughed.

As a long-time guardian of the Secret Realm, how could he not know how much Kong Luo had understood?

Kong Luo seemed not to see and continued, “Of course, if you have the ambition, you can try to break the record. Our youth training team leader is a rare divine body, you may actually be able to try…”

On the other side, Instructor Hang said to Kong Ruo, “Did you hear that? Even

Kong Luo understood 20 mysteries. Once you go in, try to go up…”

Upon hearing this, Kong Luo looked embarrassed, but didn’t dare to refute anything. Although this Instructor Hang was like him, only at the Eternal Level Rank One, he was also the instructor who had brought him up.

However, he then reminded Du Gang, “After you go in, try to use your Mental Power to comprehend the mysteries. The efficiency will be higher, of course, there is also risk. You may end up lost and eventually be sent out by the protective mechanism of the Secret Realm…”

“Okay!”

Soon Du Gang and Kong Ruo stood on the teleportation formation.

The old man operated for a while, and in the next moment, light flickered and the two on the teleportation formation disappeared.

There was a blur before Du Gang’s eyes, and in the next second, he appeared inside the Secret Realm. In front of him was a mountain of Broken Swords, every sword contained a mystery of laws.

Seeing this, his eyes brightened. He walked over ignoring the young student next to him, and began to carefully examine the scenery.

The other student seemed to know more than Du Gang and chuckled, “Each sword here has a different Gold Element mystery. You don’t need any cultivation method, as long as you have the talent, you can directly comprehend…”

Du Gang perceived for a moment and found it to be true. The mysteries of the laws embodied in these Broken Swords were like blooming petals, free for anyone to pluck. A casual glance revealed many mysteries.

“The entire blade is Gold Element mysteries, try not to touch it. But you can grasp the hilt of the sword, it can enhance your perception ability…”

After Kong Ruo gave a well-intentioned reminder, he swiftly moved to a sword, grabbed the hilt, and slowly closed his eyes to gain understanding.

Seeing him starting to cultivate, Du Gang didn’t disturb him any further. He too quickly moved to a Broken Sword and grabbed it.

“Boom!”

The moment he gripped it, a powerful wave of the Laws’ Mystery washed over him.

Du Gang’s determination was unyielding, and he did not let go.

Sure enough, in the next second, these mysteries of the Laws did not attack him. Instead, they actively swam around him, allowing him to comprehend them.

With this, Du Gang wasted no time in contemplation, and immediately began his cultivation.

Following Kong Luo’s advice, he slowly mobilized his internal Mental Power, temporarily leaving his internal world and coming to the external one.

In a moment, surges of the Laws’ Mystery, as if driven crazy, rushed madly into his spirit.

Just like enlightenment being poured into his mind, they squeezed their way in.

Seeing this, Du Gang excitedly started absorbing it all.

“Boom!”

Within the next few minutes of immersion, Du Gang had rapidly comprehended this Law’s Mystery.

“Next, I need to cultivate it to perfection!”

Du Gang said these words, but his actions momentarily ceased.

“Why do I feel a strange urge to ‘devour’ these mysteries of the Laws?”

He hesitated, his Mental Power at this moment felt aberrant, as though it wanted to consume the laws’ mysteries.

“Should I… try it?”

With this thought, he tentatively opened a small gap.

“Poom!”

Suddenly, the Laws’ Mystery, which had previously only been lingering on the Broken Sword, crazily surged inward like a hungry ghost encountering food.

“Boom!”

At this moment, countless pieces of information were received by Du Gang, his understanding of the Laws’ Mystery grew at an alarming rate.

One percent, two percent, three percent… Within less than ten minutes, he had grasped a tenth of the whole process.

Seeing this, Kong Ruo, not very far away from him, opened his eyes. Seeing Du Gang surrounded by the dense Mysteries of the Laws and his exposed Mental Power in the external world, he couldn’t help but show a hint of envy.

“As expected of a Divine Body, able to project the Mental Power externally. Is he not afraid of falling into depravity?

That’s amazing!

Shaking his head, he quickly closed his eyes and began his cultivation.

However, if you look closely, you’ll realize that although Kong Ruo is also using his Mental Power to cultivate the Mystery of the Laws, he is only doing so in his internal world, he doesn’t dare project it externally.

Or rather, he doesn’t dare project it externally. In this special Secret Realm, the most challenging thing is not to comprehend the Laws’ Mystery-

The Laws’ Mystery openly adheres to the Broken Sword, it is actually not difficult to comprehend. In this Secret Realm, the most difficult part is not falling into depravity.

Because, as long as you don’t fall into depravity and aren’t taken away by the Secret Realm’s protection mechanism, the longer you stay, the more of the Laws’ Mysteries you naturally comprehend!

Kong Ruo is not an old-school Sector Lord, he just reached First Rank of the Sector Lord level. He was given the opportunity to enter this time because he was the best student of the newest generation, and was therefore awarded such an opportunity.

“I need to understand as much of the Laws’ Mystery as possible. That way, I can shine in the next Genius Race…”

Even for geniuses from large families like them, it would still take one or two hundred years to comprehend a Mystery of the Laws from nothing. Even to improve one rank of cultivation requires nearly a thousand years of hard work.

For them, what they lack is not energy, but understanding of the Laws’ Mystery.

At this moment, in the Secret Realm, this gap can be greatly shortened, saving them considerable time.

However, entering such a Secret Realm is not an endless possibility, mostly, one can only enter once in a lifetime. It’s said that the Mental Power just can’t take it.

One day later, Du Gang had successfully cultivated the Laws’ Mystery of this Broken Sword to perfection.

“Awesome!”

Experiencing such speed just after a day, Du Gang let out an excited low cheer.

Compared to taking nine days in the external world to cultivate a Mystery to perfection, in the Secret Realm, his efficiencv increased bv a whole nine times!

Not only that, after cultivating the Mystery, Du Gang felt a pure power surge into his internal world from the Broken Sword.

“Boom!”

At this moment, the world inside him began to expand.

“Boom!”

The crust began to move, and the surrounding chaos, also joined in with that force, accelerating the development speed.

In just a few seconds, under the aid of that force, Du Gang’s inner world rapidly expanded by ten kilometers!

Keep in mind, this is not a simple elongation; this is a simultaneous increase in length, width, and height, which means that the volume of his inner world has expanded by one thousand cubic kilometers!

At this point, the side length of his inner world has expanded from the previous one hundred and ten kilometers to one hundred and twenty kilometers.

“An increase of ten kilometers at once, that’s really not a small amount!”

Du Gang was overjoyed because usually, just relying on cultivation, the growth rate of the inner world is measured in millimeters and is very slow.

Even when advancing to the Rank One of the Sector Lord level, it only increases the side length by one hundred kilometers, so just comprehending one Law Mystery can increase the side length by ten kilometers, which is good news for him.

“Continue!”

Du Gang did not feel any discomfort, and the kind of decline Kong Luo and others mentioned never occurred to him.

Quickly, not wanting to waste time, he once again approached a Broken Sword and began practicing.

At this moment, a large number of Law Mysteries poured into his body.

“To be able to comprehend a Law Mystery in a day and cultivate it to perfection means that I could advance one rank in nine days, reach Rank Nine of the Sector Lord level in three months?”

“These large families really have deep resources, based on their meaning, this is just the Gold Element Laws Secret Realm, others may have all types of Laws Secret Realms…”

“If it includes other Secret Realms with special functions, it might be even more powerful…”

At this moment, he can’t help but envy these offspring from big families, with their abundant resources and access to such rare valuable Secret Realms. “So it seems that Jiang Wengu was really nothing special after all!”

With such a Secret Realm, his cultivation was only at the Seventh Rank of the Sector Lord level.

“However, according to their words, the more Law Mysteries I comprehend here, the easier it will be to fall into decline. I really have to be careful…” Du Gang carefully calculated it.

Completing the cultivation of a perfect Mystery in a day meant that he could advance one rank in nine days.

And his time in the outside world is limited, not as efficient as here, equivalent to two months to advance one rank. This means that it would take close to five months in the outside world for him to advance two ranks.

“So, do I have to comprehend at least twenty-seven Law Mysteries in this Secret Realm?”

After carefully calculating, he will only catch up with Jiang Wengu if he advances three ranks consecutively within the Secret Realm.

“Kong Luo said he comprehended 20 Law Mysteries before, and the instructor was 28. The record for this Secret Realm is 35…”

He doesn’t feel any repulsion or signs of decline yet, but who knows if it will occur in the future or become serious.

But he has made up his mind to push on until after the 27th Mystery, even if it is hard.

“Boom!”

Another day passed, Du Gang once again successfully cultivated a Law Mystery and comprehended it to perfection.

After feeling it, his spirit was still plentiful, with no sense of declining.

“Again!”

Du Gang didn’t dare waste any time, he glanced at Kong Ruo, saw that he was still at the first Broken Sword, and the progress of his Law Mystery was only 5%, he was somewhat surprised at his slow speed, but didn’t interfere. He quickly chose another Broken Sword and started practicing again.

Outside the Secret Realm, Kong Luo and others who looked like grandfather and grandson were having a leisurely chat.

“What do you guys think, how many Law Mysteries can this Ancient God comprehend?”

“Who knows, he is a divine body. He might reach 20, he might reach 30!”

After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Kong Luo and laughed, “You boy, aren’t you embarrassed? You only comprehended 10 Law Mysteries back then…”

Kong Luo was indifferent, faintly said: “Instructor Hang also only understood more than a dozen, right?”

Instructor Hang laughed unabashedly: “That was to motivate the students. You are completely different. You are just boasting!”

After finishing his sentence, he looked puzzled: “I remember this Ancient God made a betting agreement with our Kong family. It seems that he has to win first place in the Cosmic Peak Talents Competition…”

“He seems to be only at the Second Rank of the Sector Lord level. According to the calculation of comprehending one Law Mystery in twenty days, he will be able to cultivate to the Third Rank of the Sector Lord level in half a year, right?”

“One Law Mystery every 20 days?”

Kong Luo laughed, “Ordinary people generally maintain a pace of comprehending one Law Mystery every 20 days, but he is different, he is an Ancient God!”

Instructor Hang became interested and asked, “How long do you think he can comprehend one law within?”

He actually pays little attention to the outside world, but he learned some about the Ancient God because he was a famous figure related to the Kong Family.

“Hehe!”

Kong Luo grinned maliciously, saying, “Nine days!”

“Nine days?”

Instructor Hang exclaimed, “True to his divine body, he can comprehend the mysteries of a law in just nine days…!”

“However, even so, he can only cultivate to the level of a Fourth Rank Sector Lord in half a year. There’s still a long way to go if he wants to win the first place in the Peak Genius Race,” he reasoned.

Kong Luo laughed and said, “Instructor Hang, you guessed wrong this time. When I said ‘nine days’, I was referring to his comprehension time in the outside world!”

“What!?”

Instructor Hang was shocked, “Only nine days for external cultivation? Isn’t that terrifying?!”

“Indeed!” Kong Luo nodded, “I saw it with my own eyes!”

“Wow!”

Instructor Hang exclaimed, “It really is unbelievable. Doesn’t this mean he might comprehend many mysteries?”

“As long as he doesn’t project his spiritual body out. he might even have a

chance to break the commander’s record…”

Upon saying this, he paused, looked at Kong Luo, and asked, “Did you tell him not to project his spiritual body outward?”

Kong Luo was taken aback, “I forgot that he is not one of our family members. I only reminded him to cultivate the mysteries with his spiritual body, but I

didn’t mention not projecting it outward…”

“Damn it!”

He quickly turned to the elder and said urgently, “Elder, you have to help. Let us take a look at the situation inside…”

The elder hesitated, “According to the rules, one cannot casually observe the cultivation process inside…”

Kong Luo quickly replied, “This shouldn’t be considered violation of rules, right? After all, Du Gang isn’t from the Kong family, and his cultivation progress relates to our betting agreement and the higher-ups’ evaluation of him. I assume you wouldn’t want the family to suffer…”

Instructor Hang was also very curious about how fast Du Gang was cultivating, so he added a few words of his own.

Seeing this, the elder nodded, “Alright, let’s take a look at the situation inside!”

To be honest, he was also very curious to find out what was special about the Ancient God.

Soon, the scene inside the Secret Realm slowly appeared in front of the elder.

The figure of Du Gang was clearly visible to all three of them.

Kong Luo was the first to focus on him. Seeing the transparent spiritual body floating in front of his chest, Kong Luo’s face turned black.

“I’m screwed, I ruined this kid!”

“I should have reminded him not to project his spiritual body outside…”

Instructor Hang regretfully said, “It indeed is a shame, such a promising talent…”

He glanced at Kong Luo and admonished, “You little rascal! You learned nothing from your own past misstep. Why didn’t you remember it this time?”

“I told you countless times, don’t project your spiritual body when you enter the Secret Realm, but you had to try anyway…”

Hearing this, Kong Luo looked embarrassed, “I thought I could manage it without being overwhelmed…”

“Bullshit, none of the former young prodigies dared to try, but you think you’re better, you’re so great!”

Instructor Hang was very annoyed, “Because of your actions, I was punished by having my salary deducted for a hundred years. You little…”

Meanwhile, Du Gang inside the Secret Realm was moving again. After opening his eyes and absorbing the energy of the Broken Sword in front of him, he quickly moved to another sword, held it meticulously and began to cultivate again.

“That was fast. Does he comprehend a mystery every three days?”

All three of them were unaware that Du Gang had already successfully mastered three mysteries, and they assumed he had only comprehended one.

“One every three days is indeed very fast. According to this progress, he should be able to break through a rank in a month. To win the first place half a year later, he would need to stay here for at least five months, or even more…”

The three looked at each other, each sensing the difficulty in accomplishing this.

“Five months, that would mean he would need to comprehend more than 45 mysteries, which is too difficult…”

Instructor Hang sighed and said, “Indeed, it is too difficult. If he hadn’t projected his spiritual body out, he might have had a chance. But now… sigh!”

The three of them didn’t think Du Gang could succeed, especially after he projected his spiritual body outside his body.

Kong Luo quickly asked, “Elder, is there any way to send a message into the

Secret Realm?”

“No way. This Secret Realm was initially created for Sector Lord level juniors to cultivate. Let alone conveying a message, even we cannot get inside…” The elder shook his head and said.

Kong Luo frowned, quickly saying, “What should we do then, should we send someone else in there?”

“How could that be possible!”

Instructor Hang casually said, “Have you forgotten our family’s rules? Is it possible to let someone in because of this?”

“Moreover, in the eyes of the high-ranking family members, all of this is due to destiny, it’s his fate…”

Kong Luo was speechless for a while, saying, “Instructor Hang, why are you also being so superstitious now…”

“Ahem!”

Instructor Hang coughed and chuckled, “Didn’t you hear what was said in the recently unearthed ancient chronicle, there was once a person, at the God Spirit Level Rank One, who obtained enlightenment and as a result, directly overcame nine tribulations and advanced to the True God Level…”

Kong Luo was dumbstruck, “You want to skip levels in one go?”

If the God Spirit Level elders in the family with Rank Seven, Eight, or Nine think so, he wouldn’t be surprised. However, Instructor Hang is just a God Spirit Level Rank One, but he dares to think so.

“Who knows, what if I really comprehend it? After all, nobody can define what it is…”

Instructor Hang laughed, “Anyhow, there’s no loss in saying it…”

Hearing this, Kong Luo thought it made sense, and he nodded regretfully: “Well, it seems like this is really the Ancient God’s fate!”

The old man was speechless for a while, quickly dispelling the scene from the Secret Realm.

Twenty days later.

Du Gang has learned 20 new laws of mystery, and his cultivation level has also broken through to the Sector Lord Level Fourth Rank.

Besides this, he felt a slight sense of fatigue, as if he was mentally exhausted. “Could it be, this is the prelude to ‘sinking’ they mentioned?”

He was a bit worried. He just reached the Sector Lord Level Fourth Rank, and if he left so soon, the remaining time might not be enough!

“No, I must persist, try to reach the 27th Law after!”

At this moment, Kong Ruo, who had been stationary at the first Broken Sword, woke up.

“Done!”

In front of him, a complete law of mystery emerged and after a while, it retreated back into his body.

He was overjoyed. After twenty days of cultivation, he finally successfully cultivated one law of mystery.

You should know, if this law of mystery was practiced in the outside world, it would take maybe a hundred or two hundred years, his current efficiency and speed has increased more than a thousand or two thousand times.

Suddenly, he froze. At the place where Du Gang was previously, there was no one by the Broken Sword.

“Did he leave?”

He turned his head and noticed that Du Gang was looking at him from a distance.

“Did you also successfully cultivate a mystery?”

Kong Ruo initially thought Du Gang had just finished cultivating a mystery and was suddenly filled with a competitive spirit.

“I didn’t expect you to get ahead of me, just wait, next time, I will finish cultivating before you do!”

After saying that, he was filled with fighting spirit and competitiveness, and once again came to a Broken Sword, ready to cultivate.

As soon as he touched it, the expected law of mystery did not appear.

“Huh?”

He was stunned, “It didn’t come? Is it because, this Broken Sword, someone had just used it, and the power in it hasn’t recovered yet?”

He glanced at Du Gang, noticed him standing quite far away, with nearly twenty Broken Swords in between, and laughed, “All these Broken Swords should have been used by people before, right!”

Having said that, he swiftly got up and went to another side. As soon as he grabbed a new Broken Sword, this time, a force of mystery rushed into him.

Feeling relieved, he immediately started his cultivation.

Du Gang standing on the other side was stunned.

“Do offspring of large clans all have such tenacity?”

He had already mastered 20 laws of mystery, while Kong Ruo has only just finished the first one.

Yet Kong Ruo was still full of fighting spirit and wanted to surpass him.

“What a spirited guy!”

Du Gang couldn’t help but exclaim, “I have to keep cultivating too, and strive to comprehend the 27th Law Mystery before I’m kicked out!”

After calming his mind, Du Gang quickly moved to another Broken Sword, once again gripping its hilt and beginning to cultivate.

A day later, he had completed the 21st Law Mystery.

However, this time, Du Gang faintly felt a certain repulsion.

This suggested that in his path of cultivation, he was losing his way, thus triggering the Secret Realm’s protective mechanism!

“This isn’t good news!”

Du Gang frowned. If he had reached this state after just 21 Law Mysteries, would he be kicked out?

The only thing that comforted him was that his internal world, after absorbing the energy from the Broken Swords so many times and having advanced by two ranks, had grown considerably. The sides of his internal world had surged to a length of 540 kilometers. This meant that his internal world now spanned an area of 290,000 square kilometers. It may be a bit of a squeeze, but accommodating a billion people wouldn’t be a problem!

In Earth, although Hua Nation covered nearly ten million square kilometers, much of the territory was mountains, rivers and danger zones with sparse population.

In contrast, his internal world was a flat plain, able to house a much larger population when the time came.

After pondering for a while, unable to find a way to resist the expulsion, Du Gang could only move to another Broken Sword and start cultivating once more.

A day later, Du Gang completed another Law Mystery.

This time, the repulsion he felt was even larger, he even felt like he was on the verge of being expelled from the Secret Realm. “This is only the 22nd Law Mystery!”

“No, I can’t be expelled now!”

If he was expelled now, he would be far behind in terms of time, and he might not stand a chance against Jiang Wengu then.

What should he do?

“Try running the Original Law!”

With that thought, he swiftly initiated the Original Law. After one round, his spirit seemed to lighten up a bit, and the strong sense of fatigue decreased significantly. “This might work!”

Delighted, Du Gang quickly moved to a new Broken Sword and began cultivating again.

This time, he managed to cultivate to the 25th Law Mystery before the strong sense of repulsion emerged again.

“Boom!”

Without any hesitation, he quickly initiated the Original Law, which breathed a bit of life back into his spirit.

“Again, I’m almost at the 27th!”

This time, after he Grasped the 26th Mystery, the sense of exhaustion surged back up. However, the repulsion was not as aggressive as before, but still unstable.

“Keep going. I must reach the 27th Law Mystery!”

Du Gang roared in his heart.

He was so close to his initial target, he couldn’t give up now!

“Hold on!”

“Just understand one more Law Mystery and I’ll be there!”

With this strong belief, Du Gang quickly began comprehending the 27th Law Mystery.

This time, it wasn’t as smooth as before. When he understood about a tenth of it, the repulsion intensified, creating a sense that he might be expelled any second.

Seeing this, he quickly stopped cultivating, swiftly activated the Original Law, and then continued cultivating.

However, before long, when he had understood about a fifth of it, the repulsion came again.

Frightened, he immediately stopped and restored himself with the Original Law again.

At that moment, he felt like someone perpetually having night terrors, struggling to wake up, then lying down and continuing the nightmare. It was incredibly complex.

This 27th Law Mystery, Du Gang woke up ten times. The Mystery that should have been fully cultivated in one day took him nearly two days.

“Finally, I’ve understood the 27th Law Mystery…”

“Do I go out now?”

He shook his head, “No, I can’t go out. Even if I did, I’d only be able to comprehend one Mystery every nine days outside. Here, even though the efficiency has dropped to one every two days, it’s still better than outside!” He made the decision to stay here as long as possible.

Without delay, he moved to the 28th Broken Sword and started cultivating.

This time, despite constantly using the Original Law to recover, he still felt a strong urge to get out when he was halfway through cultivating the Law Mystery.

This was a repulsion so strong that he felt like he didn’t belong here.

“It seems that the Town Origin is no longer useful, what should I do, just go out like this?”

Du Gang felt a bit regretful, having only cultivated to the 28th mystery of the law. Once he left here, it would be difficult for him to find a place like this again.

“Wait, I remember, the Saint Crystal seems to be able to enhance a bit of mental power…”

Previously, when he absorbed tens of thousands of Saint Crystals, he felt an increase in his mental power.

“Let’s give it a try!”

Thinking of this, he did not hesitate at all, took out a Saint Crystal, and swallowed it.

At this moment, the energy in his body is already saturated and cannot temporarily absorb any more energy. Thus, the massive energy in the Saint Crystal is all poured into his inner world.

As before, a single Saint Crystal only increased the length by one meter.

“There’s hope!”

Although it was just a bit, Du Gang still felt some relief from his mental fatigue.

“Let’s do it!”

Indeed, the Saint Crystals are valuable, and using them to expand the inner world is not cost-effective, but for Du Gang, this is the foundation for his strength enhancement.

“What’s the use of keeping them, I need to make every minute count!”

“Every minute counts!”

Thinking of this, he did not hesitate, and continuously took out the Saint Crystals from his inner world and swallowed them.

After consuming about a thousand or so, his mental state felt almost recovered, and he quickly began practicing the 28th mystery of the law again.

“Boom!”

Half a day later, the 28th mystery of the law was successful!

At this moment, his mental fatigue reappeared, and the repelling force came as expected.

“Keep going!”

Du Gang gritted his teeth and began to swallow the Saint Crystals again.

This time, he swallowed nearly two thousand Saint Crystals before he felt like he could hold on until the end of the practice.

“Boom!”

A day later, the 29th mystery of the law succeeded!

“Just like this, continue!”

This time, Du Gang completely stopped caring about the remaining over twenty thousand Saint Crystals, and crazily started to consume them.

Six days later, when Du Gang understood the 34th mystery of the law, all the Saint Crystals were consumed.

“Damn, I’m only one mystery away from breaking the record!”

Du Gang was a bit irritated. Although he’s not from the Kong family, he had heard about the record of this secret realm, and at this moment, he was just one step away from the record.

The inner world, after replenishing over twenty thousand Saint Crystals, had grown over twenty kilometers in length. Although not as much as advancing ranks, it is still acceptable.

“What else can I absorb?”

After thinking for a while, he rummaged through his entire inner world. Basically, all that was left was low-level stuff, with nothing useful.

The only thing that belonged to him at the Sector Lord level was the two demi-artifacts.

“Demi-artifacts are offensive weapons, what use do they have…” Suddenly, he stopped.

“Wait, I remember, within divine artifacts, there seems to contain some Original Laws…”

Previously, he had comprehended a trace of the Gold Element Original Law from his Ancient Divine Spear.

The power that maintains these Original Laws attached to the weapon is a special mental imprint used by the artifact refiner.

“If I absorb the mental power in the demi-artifact, could it last a little longer?”

Du Gang didn’t care whether this would destroy the demi-artifact, because, for him, the demi-artifact was nothing more than a decoration, he never uses it in daily life.

“Just do it!”

As soon as he thought about it, he directly took out the demi-artifact, used his mental body to tease out the mental imprint in it.

Soon, a pure mental imprint slowly emerged.

On it, there were also very complex various runes engraved.

“Once swallowed, this semi-divine artifact will be ruined!”

Du Gang caution himself again, in the end, he bit his teeth and swallowed it in one mouthful.

Suddenly, a pure mental power surged into his spirit body, instantly making the light radiating from its surface even brighter and purer.

Clearly, swallowing this spiritual imprint, although the main purpose is to recover his spiritual power, in essence, it has strengthened his spirit body.

Not only that, after the mental energy was devoured, the originally dissipating spiritual imprint and runes, having nowhere to go, suddenly moved the next second, appearing in Du Gang’s inner world.

“Boom!”

This semi-divine artifact, originally in the form of a long sword, suddenly grew to a hundred meters in length and plunged straight into the ground.

“Is this a semi-divine artifact?”

At this moment, Du Gang understood that semi-divine artifacts weren’t that easy to destroy. Although he absorbed their mental power, the essence of the semi-divine artifact is still there, it had just relocated to his inner world.

“So, if I could own the same spiritual imprint in the future, or find the original master of this semi-divine artifact, is it possible to restore it?”

Du Gang suddenly realized, he was delighted to some degree.

The semi-divine artifact was not completely destroyed, which was good news for him.

“Cultivate!”

Du Gang quickly began to cultivate the 35th law of mystery.

This time, he didn’t pause halfway through, and it was only when he had completely cultivated this mystery of the law a day later that the familiar repulsion reappeared.

Feeling this power, Du Gang pulled out another semi-divine artifact with a happy face, exclaiming, “I’m going to break the Kong Family’s record!”

He didn’t actually object to showing off his talent, because that represented his value. Only by fully showing his talent could he possibly get more resources from the Kong Family.

After all, had it not been for him telling Kong Luo about his nine-day comprehension of a law of mystery, he might have gone back to the race.

A day later.

“Boom!”

With a dull sound, Du Gang successfully comprehended the 36th mystery of the law.

And his cultivation level quietly reached the Sector Lord’s Rank Six, an entire four ranks higher than when he first came in!

Looking at the sword and the dagger standing in his inner world, Du Gang began his search again.

After raking through his entire inner world, he confirmed that he no longer had anything capable of restoring his spirit.

“36 it is then, I should be content, at least I’ve broken their record!”

Just as Du Gang was preparing to leave, Kong Ruo who was meditating beside him also happened to open his eyes.

At this moment, it was exactly the 40th day since they entered the Secret Realm, because Du Gang took two days to comprehend a mystery a few times, so it took a bit longer.

Kong Ruo, who opened his eyes for the first time, looked at Du Gang’s previous position.

Empty!

Disappointment flashed in his eyes and he quickly located Du Gang’s new position, grumbling, “You got ahead of me again, next time, I will beat you!”

“Tsk tsk!”
