All of a sudden, a pained yelp snapped Han Li out of his train of thought.

Han Li turned in that direction to find Mo Yu with his head cocked to the side, and there was a pained look on his face, while his ear was plucked upward by Lu Yuqing.

Wyrm 3 was also rather flabbergasted to see this.

"I told you to stop! You think you can just ignore what I say now?" Lu Yuqing yelled in an angry voice, presenting a stark contrast to the shy display that she had put on just a moment ago.

"Ow! Ow! You're going to tear it off! I'm sorry! I apologize! Please..." Mo Yu hurriedly implored in an agonized voice.

"You always apologize, but when have you ever actually changed? If it wasn't for you, neither of us would've ended up like this!"

Lu Yuqing raised her hand further as she spoke, and Mo Yu's head was also plucked up a bit further as a result.

"I already apologized, didn't I? Please forgive me, there are people watching..." Mo Yu implored as he put on a fawning smile.

Lu Yuqing took a glance at Han Li and Wyrm 3, then gave a cold harrumph as she let go of Mo Yu's ear.

Mo Yu hurriedly clasped a hand over his ear while giving Lu Yuqing a sycophantic smile, looking much like a puppy eagerly trying to suck up to its owner.

"Why did you let those people from the Vast Flow Palace get away? If the Heavenly Court learns of what happened here, you know what the outcome is going to be," Lu Yuqing asked with furrowed brows.

"Those are just small fry, it doesn't matter whether they get away or not. Besides, even if I had killed them, there's still no way that the news of our resurrection could be kept secret," Mo Yu replied.

Lu Yuqing raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and before she could respond, Mo Yu abruptly turned and cast his gaze toward Han Li and Wyrm 3 as he declared, "It's all thanks to you two that we were able to finally reunite with each other. I'm no saint or gentleman, but I've always paid sure to repay those who have been kind to me, so if you have any requests, feel free to state them, and we'll do our best to fulfill those requests."

Lu Yuqing continued to glower at Mo Yu for a moment, then also turned to Han Li as she said, "Thank you for protecting me all this time, Fellow Daoist Han. It was only thanks to your help that I was able to recover my memories. If I don't repay this favor, then my dao heart will be inhibited, so please do tell us how we can make it up to you."

"Fellow Daoist Han? Weren't those people calling you Fellow Daoist Li earlier? What is your actual name?" Mo Yu asked.

"A name is nothing more than a title. You can just call me Li Feiyu," Han Li replied.

"Even after all we've been through together, you're still hiding your name? Aren't you being a little too cautious?" Mo Yu grumbled in a disgruntled voice.

Wyrm 3 was clearly also curious to hear Han Li's real name, but she didn't say anything.

Han Li didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer, so he turned to Lu Yuqing as he said, "In that case, I'm happy to oblige. Even though I've attained a spirit domain, I'm still not able to completely control it. Both of you are far more experienced with spirit domains than I am, so I'd like you to teach me how to use my spirit domain."

Mo Yu and Lu Yuqing exchanged a glance with one another upon hearing this, following which the former said, "Due to the disparities in the law powers mastered by each person, the way that a spirit domain is used will also differ from person to person, and the only way to truly master one's spirit domain is through experimentation.

“Having said that, experiences and insights from others may prove to be useful. These are the insights that I've gleaned from all my years experimenting with my spirit domain, you can have them for reference purposes."

Mo Yu flicked a finger through the air as he spoke, sending a gray jade slip flying toward Han Li.

Han Li caught the jade slip, then briefly inspected its contents with his spiritual sense, following which a faint smile appeared on his face. "You have my thanks."

"What would you like, Wyrm 3?" Mo Yu asked as he turned to Wyrm 3.

A contemplative look appeared in Wyrm 3's eyes, and she didn't immediately respond . Only after a brief silence did she reply, "I came here to save you on someone else's orders, so there's no need to compensate me. Having said that, during my time in the Reincarnation Palace, I've always heard that you're an extremely knowledgeable and experienced person, so I would like to ask you a question."

"Go ahead," Mo Yu prompted with a slight nod. freeweb(n)ovel

"Just now, my spirit domain resonated with Fellow Daoist Li's, and as a result, both of our spirit domains were significantly enhanced. Do you know why that happened?" Wyrm 3 asked.

"Throughout the entire Immortal Realm, the vast majority of Golden Immortals have mastered at least one type of law powers. For those who haven't mastered any law powers, withstanding the three decays is far too difficult, and progressing to the Golden Immortal Stage is next to impossible for them. Generally speaking, the more advanced one's mastery over their law powers, the more powerful their spirit domain will be.

“However, as the most fundamental powers of this realm, law powers are extremely profound, and there will sometimes be certain connections between certain law powers. When some compatible law powers are used alongside one another, they'll be able to significantly enhance each other," Mo Yu explained.

"So you're saying that some laws can be used in combination with one another?" Han Li asked.

"That's right, but it's a very rare occurrence, and not all law powers are compatible with one another. Only the law powers that are a good fit with each other have a chance of achieving resonance, such as the laws of yin and yang, the laws of wind and fire, you get the idea," Mo Yu replied.

"I see. In that case, my laws of time had to have somehow combined with Fellow Daoist Wyrm 3's law powers just now, and that resulted in an elevation of both of our law powers," Han Li mused.

"According to my knowledge, it's very difficult to combine law powers like this, and even for those who possess theoretically compatible law powers, it still takes extensive practice to facilitate resonance of law powers like this. Up to this point, Fellow Daoist Li have only met several times, and we've never practiced combining our law powers in the past, so how did this just spontaneously happen all of a sudden?" Wyrm 3 asked.

"As I mentioned, all law powers are extremely profound, and I daresay even a dao lord doesn't have full understanding over the laws that they've mastered. As for spontaneous law resonance, this is not something that hasn't happened before, so there's no need to be alarmed. If I'm not mistaken, you're cultivating the laws of reincarnation, right? I must admit, it's extremely rare to see resonance take place between two of the three paramount laws," Mo Yu mused.

Wyrm 3 didn't seem to be very convinced by this explanation, but she didn't say press any further on this subject.

Meanwhile, Han Li turned to Wyrm 3 with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Prior to this, he hadn't been able to identify what law powers Wyrm 3 had been using, but Mo Yu had just answered that question for him.

"Both of your requests have been fulfilled now. The two of us have only just returned to this realm, and we still have many things to do, so this is where we'll part ways. I'll send the two of you out of the Infernal Frost Immortal Manor soon. In the meantime, please wait here for a moment," Lu Yuqing said, then swept a hand through the air.

Before Han Li and Wyrm 3 had a chance to respond, a burst of azure light swept up both her and Mo Yu before flying away into the distance, vanishing out of sight in a flash.

Han Li looked on at the departing duo with a contemplative look in his eyes.

Even though he had been skeptical about some of the things that the soul fragment had told him, never could he have imagined that he would be a Gray Immortal. As for Lu Yuqing, he certainly would've never guessed that she was the reincarnation of the Boundless Daoist and the true Infernal Frost Immortal Lord.

However, what came as the biggest surprise to him was that Mo Yu and the Infernal Frost Immortal Lord seemed to have become dao partners countless years ago.

Fate was truly a fickle and whimsical mistress at times.

As these thoughts were flashing through his mind, he turned to take a glance at Wyrm 3, and he couldn't see her expression through her mask, but it seemed that she was in deep thought.

He directed his gaze away from her, then descended onto the collapsed palace down below before releasing his spiritual sense.

Before long, an elated look appeared on his face as he swept a sleeve through the air to release several streaks of azure light in all directions, and the streaks of light quickly carried some objects back to him, namely a few pieces of the shattered golden roof and two destroyed golden puppets.

The roof had been constructed out of some type of golden material with a series of spirit patterns engraved onto its surface, and these roof fragments were giving off a type of special aura that was rather similar to that of his Integrated Five Extremes Mountain.

The golden roof had shown itself to be extremely effective in warding off pill tribulations earlier, and even though it had been shattered, these fragments still retained their spiritual nature, so they were still very useful to him.

As for the two puppets, he was quite interested in them as well.

Meanwhile, Wyrm 3 remained still on the spot, displaying no intention to scour the palace to spoils.

Han Li quickly stowed these things away, yet right as he was about to keep searching, a thick pillar of golden light suddenly descended out of the sky without any warning, encompassing both of them in the blink of an eye.

Han Li felt the air constrict around him, and there was tremendous pressure surging out of the golden light, instantly rendering him completely immobilized.

Countless runes were surging incessantly throughout the golden light, then converged toward Han Li's duo to form a pair of golden arrays.

Both of them felt the entirety of their fields of view being completely filled with golden radiance, following which they abruptly vanished from within the pillar of golden light.

......

Elsewhere in the Infernal Frost Immortal Manor, there stood a relatively well-preserved three-story pagoda in a garden that was overgrown with weeds.

Two people were standing on the top floor of the pagoda, and both of them were looking into the distance.

They were none other than Mo Yu and Lu Yuqing, and the former had his arms wrapped around the latter as he gently stroked her shoulder.

"You're a lot more petite than before. I wasn't able to embrace you like this in the past," Mo Yu chuckled.

"Oh? It sounds like you like this body of mine better than my previous one," Lu Yun remarked as she raised an eyebrow.

Mo Yu's expression instantly stiffened upon seeing this, and cold sweat began to bead up on his forehead as he hurriedly replied, "Your appearance isn't important, what's important to me is what's on the inside!"
