Upon seeing that it was his master, the boy was taken aback at first, and then respectfully bowed: "Master, you have arrived."
"Hmm. Your swordsmanship is quite good." Nian Qingfeng smiled, never stingy with praise. "It seems you have a good plan for your cultivation path, which puts my mind at ease."
The main reason I came to see you was because of the question you asked me on the bracelet.
On the bracelet? A question about the Abyss?
Jiang Wuyuan looked at Nian Qingfeng: "Yes, teacher, I would like to hear the details."
"Let's go upstairs." Nian Qingfeng didn't want to stand and talk forever.
He followed Jiang Wuyuan to the lobby on the first floor and sat down directly on the sofa in the main seat.
Jiang Wuyuan had no objection to this and sat down on the sofa to Nian Qingfeng's left.
"Don't rush to ask your question, let's talk about something else first," Nian Qingfeng said with a smile. "Do you know how the Abyss was formed? And where did the alien races come from?"
Jiang Wuyuan had never really thought about this question, and shook his head: "I don't know."
“It’s normal not to know. Your high school and college academic classes probably don’t cover this stuff.” Nian Qingfeng curled his lip and continued, “In ancient times, about several million years ago, our continent was a prosperous era of cultivation. Talented people emerged in great numbers, elites were everywhere, and powerful figures sat firmly in their high positions. The cultivation world was thriving.”
Unfortunately, the prosperity attracted foreign invasion.
This external enemy is a foreign race.
Their origins are now impossible to verify, but one thing is certain: they came from beyond the universe.
Beyond the universe?
Jiang Wuyuan carefully pondered the word.
“Perhaps it’s a parallel universe, equivalent to another spacetime.” Nian Qingfeng shrugged. “And the passage through which they invaded our continent is the abyssal rift in the abyssal forbidden zone.”
Once, a saint from our Dragon Kingdom ventured into the depths of the Abyss Rift to explore its secrets, but she never returned, so that place was designated a forbidden zone.
In ancient times, thanks to the protection of powerful beings at the level of emperors, they were able to fight the alien races to a fairly even standstill.
But this period of prosperity was short-lived, because no matter how many alien races were killed, their numbers would soon increase again, just as if the alien races were endlessly pouring out from the rifts in the abyss.
Therefore, humanity is gradually showing signs of decline.
So the powerful beings devised a plan: they decided to join forces to seal the abyssal rift.
In fact, the seal was successfully sealed, which led to millions of years of peace afterward.
However, the bad news was that the enormous seal drained the continent's potential, causing spiritual energy to dissipate, and the world entered the Dharma-ending Age.
As a result, countless top experts passed away one after another, leaving no trace.
The continent where we live is gradually shrinking in order to allow the remaining life to recover.
Until several hundred years ago, the seal was broken, and alien races once again wreaked havoc on the world.
To protect itself, Heaven restored spiritual energy.
It was a very long story, and Jiang Wuyuan listened very attentively.
Until finally, he heard the term "the Way of Heaven".
Does the Way of Heaven truly exist?
Nian Qingfeng smiled and said, "Since you asked this question, I'll tell you about it."
Do you know what else, besides blood and qi, distinguishes a Grandmaster from a Martial Emperor?
Jiang Wuyuan frowned, recalling the battle between the two grandmasters he had witnessed on the night he was attacked by the Martial Emperor.
Its energy seems to be more than just artistic conception.
“It seems you’ve already come into contact with it—it’s the law.” Nian Qingfeng smiled. “The law is above the realm of conception.”
While understanding the principles is not a necessary condition for comprehending the laws, it is the simplest method.
You can think of it this way: if someone tries to grasp the principles directly without understanding the underlying meaning, it's almost like going from zero to one hundred points.
Once you've grasped the essence and reached perfection, breaking through to the level of a law is like going from sixty points to one hundred points.
Although it is still somewhat distant, there is a foundation, so it is not out of reach.
Of course, there are indeed people who can comprehend the laws directly without grasping the meaning, but such people are extremely rare, perhaps only one in a hundred years.
The necessary condition for becoming a grandmaster is that one must comprehend a law.
The laws are inextricably linked to the Way of Heaven.
I can't tell you what it is, but you will feel it the moment you possess the law.
Jiang Wuyuan nodded thoughtfully: "Would it be feasible to comprehend the laws before becoming a Grandmaster?"
“I don’t recommend you do that. You should at least reach the Martial Emperor level before you can even think about this,” Nian Qingfeng said seriously. “Laws are not simple things. Without a sufficiently powerful container, they may not be able to contain their existence.”
Forcing it might carry the risk of causing the body to explode and die.
Seeing Nian Qingfeng's serious expression, Jiang Wuyuan naturally replied, "Yes, Master, I understand."
“Hmm.” Nian Qingfeng nodded. “Between Martial Emperor and Grandmaster, there is a transitional realm of Half-Step Grandmaster. This realm refers to those who have touched the threshold of the laws but have not yet fully comprehended them.”
This kind of person is neither exceptionally strong nor exceptionally weak, but their strength far surpasses that of an average Martial Emperor. You must be extremely careful when you encounter them.
"yes."
"Alright, let's talk about the question you asked." Nian Qingfeng opened his mouth, but then felt thirsty and immediately ordered, "Go, make me a cup of tea first."
Jiang Wuyuan readily agreed and brewed a pot of green tea for the person, bringing it over.
After drinking a cup of water, Nian Qingfeng felt a little better in his throat: "You just found out that the alien race's lair is in the abyss. These bastards aren't content with just guarding their little piece of land; they want to expand outwards."
