Zu Weng searched outside for a long time, but he still couldn't understand the situation inside, and finally had to leave unwillingly.
Under the gaze of the light beads, Yu Kai began to quietly absorb their fundamental law power. Each law power was different, like a flowing stream, slowly flowing into Yu Kai's body. His body shone with a strange light, and as the law power absorbed it, his aura also strengthened.
These light beads were amazed at how quickly Yu Kai mastered their laws. They were all masters of their own laws. Although each law was limited in number, its scope was extremely broad and profound, encompassing the control of poison, electricity, wind, time, thunder, nature, water, metal, fire, wood, and space.
These laws, like seeds of infinite possibility, quickly took root and sprouted within him. Each law flowed through his meridians, mingling with his soul. The orbs of light all looked as if they had seen a monster. They couldn't imagine how powerful Yu Kai would become when these laws were fully realized.
When Yu Kai had absorbed all the power of the original laws, a powerful and mysterious aura emanated from his body.
He felt immensely stronger, already transcending the ordinary and entering the realm of sainthood. He must have entered the early stages of sainthood, a qualitative leap. He could clearly sense the flow of every ounce of energy within his body, as if every cell were being reshaped, brimming with endless vitality and strength. This strength was not merely an increase in power, but also a deeper understanding of the nature of the world.
At this moment, he was completely transformed. His spiritual perception was sharper, able to detect the most subtle energy fluctuations in his surroundings. His thinking was also clearer, and his understanding of psychic powers and techniques had reached a whole new level.
Now, facing the combined forces of Zhong Kui and the Ghost King once again, he was fully confident he could defeat them easily. It was no longer the difficult battle of the past, but now he could dominate the situation with overwhelming superiority. He even felt that even facing an enemy several times their size, he could handle it with ease. This overwhelming confidence wasn't blind, but rather stemmed from a clear understanding of his own strength and absolute control over his newfound power.
He opened his eyes and looked at the light beads around him with respect. Then he kowtowed to them one by one with his forehead touching the ground, and his voice was firm and sincere: "Thank you all, masters, for teaching me the Dharma. Yu Kai will definitely keep it in mind and never forget it for the rest of his life!" His attitude was extremely sincere, and every action was filled with genuine gratitude. His piousness was moving.
"Boy, don't shout Master casually. If you already have a Master, he will be exterminated if he knows about this!" The light ball wrapped in flames spoke urgently, and the flames around it leaped.
"Master, I have never taken anyone as my master. It is you who truly taught me the way of cultivation. You are my true mentors!" Yu Kai kowtowed again. When he raised his head, his eyes were clear and resolute, and his tone was respectful and solemn. "In my heart, you are all my masters, the ones who guide me forward. This kindness and this love are as heavy as Mount Tai. I, Yu Kai, will never be false in my words."
"Hahahaha! I never thought that we could leave behind a legacy today!" The light ball that was fluctuating in space laughed heartily, and the space around it trembled slightly with the laughter, as if it was happy for this rare fate.
"Yes, we never thought that we could receive such a talented person!" The illusory light bead couldn't help but sigh, and the other light beads also laughed loudly, and the laughter echoed in this space for a long time.
"Child, since you are so sincere, we will accept you as our disciple. Do you really understand the power of our laws? If there is anything you don't understand, please feel free to ask us and we will answer it for you." The illusory light ball said with expectation.
"I will share my understanding with all the Masters!" Yu Kai said happily. Then, as if suddenly remembering that he didn't know the Masters' names, he hurriedly asked, "By the way, I don't know how to address all the Masters?"
"Haha! I am Di Jiang!" The light ball with fluctuating space spoke first. As soon as the words came out, the space around it rippled like water.
"Jumang!"
"Rukushou!"
"Gonggong!"
"Zhurong!" the ball of light wrapped in flames shouted loudly.
"Xuanming!" The ball of light surrounded by the power of nature responded.
"Qiangliang!"
"Zhu Jiuyin!" The illusory ball of light spoke again.
"Tian Wu!"
"Yanzi!"
"Shebishi!"
Hearing these names, Yu Kai was stunned, as if under a spell. These names hit him like a hammer, too shocking for him. It took a moment for him to recover, and he stammered, "You...you are the 12 Ancestral Witches?"
"That's right! We are the 12 Ancestral Witches, but my younger sister Houtu is not here!" Dijiang spoke, and the space around his light ball fluctuated violently.
"Master, why are you here? Why are there rumors in the outside world that you are all... are..." Yu Kai hesitated, not knowing how to put it.
"Have they all fallen?" Zhu Rong asked directly.
"Exactly! Fifth Master!"
"We all did fall. At the last moment, we retained this power and sent Old Seven away. Old Seven was so powerful that he could merge with the tunnel and use our power to open up this underworld!" Xuanming spoke, his words full of admiration for Houtu.
"So many years have passed, why don't you resurrect?" Yu Kai asked doubtfully.
"We have suffered heavy losses. If this place is not the heart of the underworld and can provide us with energy, I am afraid that this strand of spiritual power will be difficult to retain!" Di Jiang said slowly.
"Then why can I be resurrected so easily? Is it because I am too weak?" Yu Kai asked seriously.
"You are extremely special. Since the establishment of the Netherworld, no one, including my seventh sister, has been able to enter this place!" Xuan Ming stared at Yu Kai up and down, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Ah! What am I doing?" Yu Kai looked confused.
"So we originally wanted to give you an original law and establish a good relationship with you, but we never thought that we would accept you as our disciple!" Xuan Ming said with a laugh.
"We can't stay awake for a long time. If you have any questions, please ask immediately. We will need to help you restrain the lion later, otherwise it will be difficult for you to escape!" Dijiang said as he looked at Zu Weng who was walking away.
"Okay, Master!" Yu Kai immediately asked them one by one.
Yu Kai seized the opportunity and poured out all his insights and doubts about the power of law to the ancient witches.
"Twelfth Master, although I can sense the sinister power of this poison law, I don't know how to use it freely so as to kill the enemy without harming innocent people." Yu Kai frowned and asked seriously.
"According to your previous logic, toxins could pollute the air, soil, and water, causing damage to organisms and ecosystems."
