#557 - Only laws can shake the laws

The sudden invalidation of the Law of Time caught even the Immortal Palace's experts off guard.

It was the basis of their confidence.

Despite Xu Fengqiu bringing out countless heaven-defying methods.

Despite the Dragon Clan and the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan coming to help.

Despite the God-Slaying Cannons making them scatter like chickens and dogs.

Despite the poisonous fog inside the Immortal Palace rendering them helpless.

They were still full of confidence.

Because they were the Immortal Palace.

Because they had always been the sole overlord of the Nine Provinces.

Because they had never failed.

Because their methods were even more heaven-defying!

Because they possessed the Laws!

However, regardless of how many 'becauses' there were, the Laws were definitely the most reassuring existence among them!

But this most reassuring existence had failed.

It had no effect whatsoever.

If the Law had only had no effect on Xu Fengqiu or the Supreme Immortal Emperor, that would have been acceptable, truly.

But the Law actually had no effect on anyone from the Eternal First Divine Sect.

It was as if the Law of Time was fake.

This was outrageous.

This also made the people of the Immortal Palace somewhat suspicious.

They truly began to wonder…

Would they really win?

Meanwhile, the Eternal First Divine Sect had no idea what was happening or why they were not affected by the power of the Law of Time.

But, it didn't matter!

This must be some trick Xu Fengqiu had pulled!

They only needed to know that this was good news, and that was enough.

"Kill!!"

One side's fighting spirit soared directly.

While the other side's invincible mentality instantly suffered a mental breakdown.

"Ancestor, what's going on?"

Jun Wuyan came to the side of the expert.

He could only assume that the release had failed.

Although everyone could see that the power of the Law of Time had definitely been released.

But how could it be explained?

"I don't know, this old man doesn't quite understand why either," the expert said with a frown.

He glanced at Xu Fengqiu in the distance.

"It must be this Xu Fengqiu; he used some method to shield his people from the effects of the Law of Time."

Although they couldn't understand what method could accomplish this, there was no other explanation.

"How about… releasing it again?"

Jun Wuyan asked.

"The power of the Law of Time covers the entire battlefield. Judging from the current situation, it can only be released twice. After all, such a powerful Law is difficult to sustain continuous release, unlike Xu Fengqiu, whose Law of Time has not been absorbed and refined by anyone."

The Immortal Palace hadn't considered absorbing and refining the Law of Time.

But they never thought there would be such a day.

Therefore, the Law of Time had always been a communal top treasure of the Immortal Palace.

No one could use it, and no one could own it privately.

No one thought that there would be a day when the Law of Time would be needed.

Because no one could shake the Immortal Palace.

Unless one day there was really no other way, they would consider giving the Law of Time to someone.

But this day came too suddenly.

This old man was already doing well to be able to mobilize so much of the power of the Law of Time.

No one expected that there would be such a day.

Even more unexpectedly, such a high-intensity release of the Law of Time's power had not produced any effect.

"Then… what should we do? This must be Xu Fengqiu's top method; no one knows what it is. But… we have the Law of Time! The initiative is in our hands. It's already heaven-defying enough that Xu Fengqiu can allow everyone to withstand the power of the Law of Time once. I don't believe he can do it again!"

Jun Wuyan really didn't believe it.

"I will find another opportunity to release it," the old ancestor nodded and said.

Jun Wuyan gritted his teeth, his gaze filled with resentment as he looked at Xu Fengqiu below.

"Kill!!"

He roared and directly joined the battlefield.

…

Time slowly passed.

No one expected that the theoretically heaven-defying Law of Time would not produce any effect.

As the battle continued, the Eternal First Divine Sect's performance inside the Immortal Palace was getting better and better.

The poisonous fog was also spreading wider and wider.

It even made everyone feel for a moment…

Could it be that Xu Fengqiu was really going to succeed?

Huh?

"Why hasn't the Immortal Palace's Law of Time had any effect?"

"It's true that Xu Fengqiu has Laws, but Xu Fengqiu's Laws can't deal with the Law of Time! To put it bluntly, even if Xu Fengqiu isn't afraid, how did he manage to prevent everyone from being affected by the Law of Time?"

"No… is Xu Fengqiu's method so powerful that he's not even afraid of Laws? That's impossible! To put it bluntly, even if Xu Fengqiu could bring out a large number of methods from the Eight Desolations, Laws are still supreme in the Eight Desolations!"

"Even in the Eight Desolations, there is no method that can deal with Laws. Laws are absolutely invincible, unless only Laws can deal with Laws! Unless…"

"Only Laws can deal with Laws, and Xu Fengqiu's Law of Power obviously can't help others deal with the Law of Time, unless… Xu Fengqiu has another Law that restrains the Law of Time!"

"Hiss—impossible, right? Can one person have two Laws? What Law could he have to deal with the Law of Time?"

"The Law of Time is not easy to deal with, but if Xu Fengqiu has enough time… creating a Law or a Law of Destruction to destroy the time power of the Law of Time… is possible!"

"This…"

"…"

Although everyone had never seen Laws, they had heard some things about them.

They combined their imagination with the current situation.

It wasn't difficult to imagine.

Only Laws could shake Laws.

And Xu Fengqiu must have used Laws to shake the Law of Time.

But the Law of Power is not good for shaking the Law of Time, right?

"But that's not right either! The Law of Time is so terrifying. Everyone saw just now, such a large-scale release of the Law of Time, such a big movement, but Xu Fengqiu didn't release any power at all! To put it bluntly, if Xu Fengqiu used another Law to shake the Law of Time just now, then at least he should have released it just now, right? But what was he doing? He was fighting normally."

"That's right, it's strange, it's really strange, it's completely incomprehensible!"

"What kind of monster is this Xu Fengqiu?"

"…"

Jun Wuyan's face was very ugly.

The failure of the Law of Time also made him feel panicked for the first time.

No matter what methods Xu Fengqiu had used before, he hadn't panicked.

This time, he was really overthinking it.

"Someone!"

Jun Wuyan created some distance.

"Great Elder!"

"Quickly send the message to the major sects, it's time for them to take action," Jun Wuyan said coldly with a solemn expression.
