"Legends say that your Ten Thousand Laws Vine race, in your long lives, slowly absorbs the various laws from the surrounding space-time, using them to temper yourselves. Thus, the longer you survive, the more familiar you become with the myriad laws of the world.
They say some Ten Thousand Laws Vines that have lived long enough can comprehend all the world's laws, even penetrating the principles of the Great Dao itself.
This is also the origin of your race's name, Ten Thousand Laws Vine.
Could it be that this legend is true?"
Seeing Ye Yunfei's reaction, Hun Lao spoke up in surprise.
"That talk of penetrating the principles of the Great Dao is a bit of an exaggeration. It's just that our Ten Thousand Laws Vine race is indeed quite familiar with various laws," the ancient vine said with a smile.
At this moment, Ye Yunfei felt the tremendous roaring sounds within his body gradually weakening, finally settling into calm. Now, he felt his sensitivity towards the various laws in the surrounding space had greatly increased.
Previously, due to his damaged cultivation realm, Lin Fei's perception of various laws had been growing weaker, gradually losing the ability to wield energies of different laws. Moreover, a mysterious energy had been constantly surrounding his body, repelling Ye Yunfei's realm. But now, after drinking a single cup of tea, all of this seemed to have eased somewhat!
"Many thanks to you, Senior, for granting this tea!"
Ye Yunfei was deeply grateful.
"Let's go! We're heading over!"
At this time, the beings in the distance had already begun slowly moving closer to the mountain peak where Ye Yunfei stood.
All these beings were proceeding with extreme caution, releasing their Soul Power energy to carefully sense the path ahead. Their strength was formidable, and their perception abilities were acute. They had long since vaguely sensed that terrifying dangers must be hidden within this headquarters.
The seven True Immortals who had followed Ye Yunfei were being driven deeper and deeper into this headquarters by those groups of beings, inwardly cursing their misfortune.
Because they had already witnessed the dangers of this ancient sect's headquarters previously.
"Haha, young man, you will rarely have a chance to drink this kind of tea in the outside world. Have a few more cups," the Old Daoist said enthusiastically, pouring Ye Yunfei another cup of tea.
Ye Yunfei hurriedly thanked him, then drank this cup of tea. The same booming roar resounded once more.
Ye Yunfei felt himself undergoing the baptism of the Great Dao once again.
A moment later, those booming sounds gradually faded.
Hoo...
Ye Yunfei exhaled a long breath, feeling immensely refreshed.
"Young man, this is the last cup.
After three cups, drinking more won't have any use," the Old Daoist said, pouring Ye Yunfei another cup of tea for him to drink.
Thus, Ye Yunfei once again received the baptism of the Great Dao.
After three cups of tea, Ye Yunfei felt his entire body light and free. That sense of repulsion around his body had now weakened considerably.
"Young man, I will now plant the Myriad Laws of the world in your heart.
The methods of our Ten Thousand Laws Vine cannot be directly inherited. When meeting a predestined being, we can only use a secret technique to plant it within their heart, relying on the being to spend their own time to comprehend it.
The situation is akin to us providing the net, but not the fish directly. How many fish you can catch in the end depends on your own fortune.
However, any being who has received the Myriad Laws Seed from our Ten Thousand Laws Vine race will inevitably achieve great accomplishment in the domain of laws in the end."
The Old Daoist waited for Ye Yunfei to finish the three cups of tea before speaking slowly.
Having said that, the Old Daoist raised a finger, sending a profound piece of information into Ye Yunfei's Soul Sea.
This Soul Power information pertained to laws, but Ye Yunfei was momentarily unable to fully comprehend it.
Nevertheless, Ye Yunfei could feel that this Soul Power information truly resembled a seed, slowly fusing with his Soul Body within his Soul Sea, making him feel even closer to the various laws in the surrounding space.
"Many thanks, Senior!"
Ye Yunfei said gratefully.
"Haha, young man, don't mention it.
You've done me a great favor. I naturally have to pay the corresponding reward.
We of the Ten Thousand Laws Vine race do not like to owe favors," the Old Daoist said with a smile.
"The kindness you've shown me is already immense," Ye Yunfei hurriedly replied.
"Haha, young man, I believe in fate. Our meeting is a kind of destiny.
How about this, let me give you another gift.
I will guide you to a place where, if my guess is correct, a great opportunity awaits," the Old Daoist said with a smile. As soon as the words left his lips, he sent another piece of Soul Power information into Ye Yunfei's Soul Sea.
This Soul Power information contained a location and many explanations.
Ye Yunfei did not study it in detail, merely glancing over it. He planned to find time later to thoroughly examine it.
"I have lived within this stretch of space-time for far too long, far too long. I understand this place too well.
Although I can only stay upon this mountain peak now, I am still occasionally able to sense many events within this space-time, and know quite a lot.
Follow the directions and method I've told you, and search for this place. If you can find it, you will surely gain something," the Old Daoist added.
"Many thanks, Senior!" Ye Yunfei hastily expressed his gratitude.
"Alright, young man, this is all I can give you.
I truly have no other way; I am almost unable to protect myself, and possess nothing of great value to gift you.
If you had encountered me in ancient times, I would certainly have bestowed upon you many precious treasures, but now I am poorer than a temple rat." The Old Daoist sighed.
"No, Senior, what you've given me is already plenty!" Ye Yunfei insisted.
"Alright, young man, you may go now.
Next, I shall enter a hibernation-like state of rest. It is a cultivation secret technique unique to our race. After the hibernation ends, my condition will be much improved." The Old Daoist announced.
"Since Senior needs to rest, I shall not disturb you any further.
I bid you farewell," Ye Yunfei said immediately.
With that, Ye Yunfei turned and retraced his steps, departing the way he had come.
As Ye Yunfei left, the Old Daoist directly vanished without a trace.
The summit of the mountain peak was left with only the ancient vine that appeared to be dangling by a thread. Moreover, that ancient vine now seemed to have returned to its original state—withered and rotting, showing not a shred of vitality.
Even a hazy aura enveloped the old vine, making it difficult to perceive.
Because Ye Yunfei's skill in Formations had improved by a large margin, he was now able to barely analyze and avoid the Formations he encountered along the way.
Naturally, since Ye Yunfei had already traversed this path once on his way in, retracing his steps was now exceedingly easy.
"Look!
That boy Ye Yunfei is coming down from the mountain!"
At this moment, several groups of beings were slowly approaching this mountain. Seeing Ye Yunfei descending from the peak, they all began shouting.
"That Daoist from earlier seems to be gone!
That old Daoist must have been a rare medicine spirit, and now the boy has gotten it!"
"Block him! Don't let him escape!"
...
The groups of beings could no longer sense the ancient vine. Their focus now centered entirely on Ye Yunfei.
