Hengsheng continued to comprehend the law with all of his determination and focus for three whole days without rest.
He gained a deeper understanding of the Law of Fire, and as a result, the law skill in the Ultimate Leveling System leveled up several times.
He withdrew his divine sense from the manifestation of the Fire Law since he felt the law comprehension rate slowing down. He realized that he was approaching the limit of his current comprehension capacity to continue understanding the Fire Law.
It would be a waste of time if he kept pushing it further. It was better to wait until he completely digested the understanding he had gained from this comprehension before attempting to comprehend it again next time.
Hengsheng gazed at the details of the law skill one last time before moving on to comprehend other laws.

He opened his eyes for the first time in three days and observed his surroundings with his naked eyes.
The fourteen disciples were still restlessly comprehending the Dao. They had not moved from their spots even once. Aside from them, he noticed a new face had appeared in the Dao Field—a female cultivator with strange silver hair, dressed in a long blue-silver long-dress.
She was clearly not a Golden Sword sect member.
Hengsheng was quite surprised that the Golden Sword Sect allowed another cultivator to enter their Dao Field beside him.
If the Golden Sword sect brought her here for the same reason as him—that is, valuing her strength—then she must be quite strong.
He did not need to use his divine sense on her; with his naked eyes alone, he could see the aura she emitted.
He could tell that she possessed an impressive understanding of the law—a powerful one. If her understanding of the law were converted into a law skill level in the Ultimate Leveling System, then she must possess at least a level 25 law skill.
While he was observing her, her expression suddenly shifted, a flicker of displeasure crossing her face.
He stopped his observation immediately, not wanting to face an awkward situation like being caught watching a woman working out at the gym.
On his side, Yunsu was lying on the mattress as if she were sleeping, but he could feel that she was now emitting an aura of law.
Actually, he sensed something even more profound than the law from her—a sensation similar to his Dao Heart, emitted with powerful spiritual power. Without hesitation, he opened her status panel with his system.

Hengsheng's eyes widened in shock as he saw the Dao appear in her attainments section. He thought to himself, "How is this possible!?"
Then he recalled that Yunsu was a spirit beast, not a human. She didn't need to cultivate or develop a means to contain the Dao within herself like humans did to wield its power.
Even though the Dao was incomplete, the Dao was still the Dao — it would grant her unimaginable spiritual power.
Her Five Agents Bloodline seemed to be the main reason she achieved this feat in such a short time.
He had heard from his mother that high-rank cultivators usually took years, or even decades, to comprehend and grasp a tiny glimpse of the Dao—not just a few days as she had.
He gazed at the carefree cat rolling around on the mattress, effortlessly comprehending the Dao naturally. He couldn't help but envy her Bloodline heritage.
'This is why the spirit race doesn't need the Dao Heart like humans do—because it's unnecessary.' Hengsheng thought.
Because she was born with a body naturally capable of comprehension and containing the spiritual essence of the Dao.
He petted her fluffy fur for a moment to recharge his cat energy.
Meanwhile, he also observed the Dao Monument—the stone tablet—which continuously emitted the profound Dao Rhythm without stopping.
On its surface, he saw unknown runes engraved all over it. Each rune emitted Dao Rhythm resonances that intertwined before sending out a profound rhythm through the entire Dao Field.
He tried to recall his rune knowledge, attempting to decipher their meaning, but none of the engravings matched anything in his memory.
It seemed that his idea of comprehending the Dao directly by observing the Dao Monument was useless.
'When it comes to Dao-related issues, the Heavenly Dao seems like it won't let me cheat using my system's power easily,' Hengsheng thought.
He could only rely on the traditional method in this case. Closing his eyes once more, he took a deep breath.
Inspired by Yunsu, he yearned to attempt truly comprehending the Dao itself — not merely its component laws.
'Let's see if I can cheat the norms of this world and grasp the power of the Dao for myself.' Hengsheng dove into Dao comprehension with his Dao Heart fully open.
Garrrrr!

Guraaa!
The abomination monsters' cries echoed throughout the bamboo forest. When Hengsheng arrived at this place not long ago, the army of the God Spawn was still in a dormant stage, not actively doing anything—only waiting for the command of their creator.
However, ten thousand of the abomination monsters were now already moving!
They spread out through the whole forest, hunting and eating anything that moved—whether it was Demon Beasts or humans that did not bear the mark of their creator. Each consumption made them grow stronger at an astonishing rate.
Their growth rate in strength was something that no human cultivator couldn't achieve.
Garrrr!
A long, centipede-shaped God Spawn got hold of a Stone Monkey, a rank 3 demon beast. The Stone Monkey roared, attacking the God Spawn's body with its stone fists, hoping to break free from its grasp.
But the God Spawn kept healing—rendering the monkey's attacks useless.
It twisted its abominable body, wrapping around the monkey's torso, and then, with countless bites from its countless mouths, the Stone Monkey was eaten alive.
Crack!
The sound of bones shattering rang from its many jaws. As the long-bodied God Spawn consumed the Stone Monkey's essence, its unstable form began to shift.
Its long body soon sprouted four limbs—similar to the Stone Monkey's. Not only did its physical form change, but its aura also grew more powerful. If its strength had been at Tier 2 or equal to Qi Gathering cultivators, it had now stepped into Tier 3 strength that rivaled the Spiritual Foundation realm cultivators!
Roarrrrrrrr!
Sights like this occurred all over—not just in the bamboo forest but it extend to nearby terrain and beyond.
At the altar of the God in the main camp of the Heavenless Dao Cult, a hundred cultivators surrounded it and knelt down as they prayed and worshiped toward the Wu God statue. Their mouths murmured the Wu God's title, each word seeming to reach the deformed creature statue.
As a response from the Wu God statue, a pulse of unknown energy was sent to its followers, Blessing them with the Wu God's power.
The unknown energy merged with their spiritual Qi, changing its nature toward the law of the Wu God. It became Wu Qi—the Qi that does not belong to Heaven!
Wu Qi emits an oppressing Qi aura and strengthens them.
Sensing the surge of power running through their very beings without effort, they only needed to pray to their deity the Wu God for power—there was no need to go through hardship to gain strength as the Heavenly Dao forced them to do.
Most of the black-mask cultivators started to make pleased expressions. They believed they had chosen the right path. Many of them had long exhausted the talents that Heaven had bestowed upon them at birth. Unable to progress any further on the cultivation path, they were left bitter, and resentful.
These cultivators were the ones who held the most grudge against Heaven. In their minds, Heaven was unfair, cruel, and heartless—which was true, as everyone knew—but the true reason for the grudge was they were the ones who did not benefit from Heaven's unfairness. They were not willing to accept it.
When the Heavenless Dao Cult showed up and gave them an opportunity, they did not hesitate to turn their back on heaven and left the Heavenly Path, becoming traitors of the Heavenly Dao World right away.
Jin Da-Shan, at the forefront before the Wu God statue, was the greatest beneficiary of the early God blessing.
As the possessor of the Wu Dao Seed—a seed planted in the very being of the cultivator—its purpose was to assimilate them with the Wu God's Laws, granting them the characteristics of a Wu being.
Because of this, the unknown energy not only altered his spiritual Qi nature but also empowered his Wu Being characteristics directly, devouring his own cultivator nature little by little, breaking the shackles of the Heavenly Dao rule and soon transforming all of his spiritual Qi into the unknown energy—Chakra.
