Chapter 425 Law Disruptor
Chapter 425 Law Disruptor
By the second night, Lu Sheng's spiritual energy had recovered to 90%.
The hidden injuries on his body have been mostly healed. The grayish-white mark on his left shoulder, which had been grazed by the Ice-Sealing Law, has faded significantly, and dragon scales have regrowed to cover the damaged area.
He came out of the secret room and went to the command room.
Luo Tianfei is analyzing data in front of the holographic projection.
"Have you gotten the intelligence from the Cleaner Alliance?"
"Got it. It came at a price—three high-grade spirit source crystal cores."
Lu Sheng didn't care about the price. "Speak."
"Detailed data on the Law Barrier of G-131 is as follows—"
A set of parameters popped up on the holographic projection.
"Barrier diameter: 213 meters. Law thread density: approximately 4,700 threads per square centimeter. Number of weaving layers: seven. Law quality—exceeds the upper limit of analytical ability for a mid-stage Spirit Saint, and cannot be accurately measured."
"Four thousand seven hundred per square centimeter?" Lu Sheng frowned.
The spherical space membrane of the Old Divine Abyss has a density of approximately three thousand law threads per square centimeter.
G-131 has 1,700 more roots than the Old Abyss.
"Seven layers of weaving. How many layers is the Abyss of the Old Gods?"
"The Abyss of the Old Gods has five levels."
In other words, the law barrier of G-131 is thicker, denser, and more difficult to break through than that of the Old God Abyss.
What methods has the Cleaners Alliance tried?
"Six attempts were recorded. The first three were brute-force attacks, employing a combined assault from early and mid-stage Spirit Saints, but the barrier remained unmoved. The fourth attempt used spatial laws to penetrate from the inside, but failed. The fifth attempt used corrosive laws to wear down the barrier over a prolonged period of seventy-two hours, but the barrier showed no damage. The sixth—"
Luo Tianfei paused for a moment.
"The sixth time, the leader of the Scavenger Alliance personally intervened. He was a peak mid-stage Spirit Saint. He unleashed his ultimate attack on the barrier, and the result—the barrier reflected the attack."
"A rebound?"
"Yes. The barrier absorbed the energy of the attack and then reflected it back with equal force. The Scavenger Alliance Leader was almost seriously injured by his own attack."
Lu Sheng's expression changed.
It can absorb and reflect the full force of a mid-stage Spirit Saint's attack from a law barrier.
This thing's defense level is at least at the peak of the Spirit Saint realm.
"Then can my spatial law penetration method still be used?"
"Theoretically—it's possible. Although the spherical spatial membrane of the Old God Abyss and the law barrier of G-131 are similar in their weaving methods, the reason you were able to penetrate the Old God Abyss is because there are extremely tiny gaps between the law threads. These gaps are an inherent characteristic of the weaving technique; no matter how high the thread density, the gaps will always exist."
"But the gap will be smaller."
"Yes. The higher the density of the threads, the smaller the gap. The gap in G-131 is probably only about 60% of that in the Old Divine Abyss. You need more precise manipulation of spatial laws to complete the infiltration."
More refined manipulation of spatial laws.
Lu Sheng thought for a moment. When he infiltrated the spherical space in the Old God Abyss, he had already used the spatial law precision of a mid-stage Spirit Saint. Now that he was a late-stage Spirit Saint, his precision was even higher.
A 60% gap should be enough.
But he couldn't guarantee it.
"We'll talk about it when we get there." Lu Sheng put the question aside for the time being.
"There's one more thing."
"Please speak."
"Interference from the imprint of the law."
Luo Tianfei's mechanical eyes flickered. "You mean the law imprint within Elder Xuanyin's spiritual core?"
"Yes. I can't remove the mark, but is there any way to interfere with it? To temporarily disable it, or at least to make the information the Celestial Venerable of All Things obtains through the mark inaccurate."
Luo Tianfei took three seconds to calculate.
"I have a solution."
"explain."
"The signal transmission of the Law Imprint requires a medium—spiritual source particles. The imprint emits position signals and law environment data outward through the spiritual source particles in the Xuan Yin spiritual source core. If a special law interference layer is wrapped around the Xuan Yin spiritual source core—not necessarily completely shielding the imprint, but only distorting its emitted signal—the information received by the Myriad Manifestations Celestial Venerable can be deviated."
"What kind of deviation?"
"Positional deviation. Make him think Xuan Yin is still on Earth, or in a completely different direction. Environmental data can also be faked—making him think the concentration of spiritual energy around Xuan Yin is the same as on Earth, rather than the actual concentration of G-131."
"Can you make this interference layer?"
"I cannot do that. Operations at the level of laws are beyond my capabilities. But you can."
"I?"
"The laws of space, combined with your experience in manipulating the threads of law—weave a miniature barrier of spatial laws around the core of Xuan Yin's spiritual source. This barrier doesn't need to completely isolate the signal; it only needs to fold the signal's propagation path, causing the signal to make several turns inside the barrier before transmitting out. During this turning process, the location information will be distorted."
Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes.
"Spatial folding? Performing spatial folding outside someone else's spiritual core?"
"Miniature. Extremely small. And the core of the spiritual source must not be touched, otherwise the self-destruct mechanism of the law imprint will be triggered."
"The precision you're talking about—"
"That's about three times the precision you achieved when you penetrated the spherical space in the Old Abyss."
Three times the precision.
Lu Sheng fell silent.
The precision of spatial laws in the late-stage Spirit Saint realm is significantly higher than that in the mid-stage. But three times the precision—
"Barely," Lu Sheng said.
"That'll do, even if it's just passable. I can provide real-time data navigation. You're responsible for manipulating the laws, and I'll tell you the position of each law thread and the angle at which it needs to be folded."
"How did you see the threads of law within the core of the spiritual source?"
"Dragon Eyes."
Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment.
"What I mean is—you use your Dragon Eyes to scan Xuan Yin's spiritual core, obtain the structural data of the law imprint, and then transmit the data to me. After I perform the calculations, I will send the operation instructions back to you."
"Will it work?"
"The probability is about seventy percent."
Seventy percent.
That's not low.
When will you do it?
"The sooner the better. The interference layer needs to be completed before departure, and after completion, it requires at least twelve hours of stabilization—to confirm that the interference layer has not been rejected by the feedback mechanism of the law imprint."
"Then let's do it tonight."
Lu Sheng stood up.
"Summon Xuanyin to the secret chamber."
……
Half an hour later.
Chamber of Secrets.
Xuan Yin sat on the stone bed, facing Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng explained the plan to her.
Xuan Yin remained silent for a long time after hearing this.
"Does Your Excellency intend to weave a law barrier around my spiritual core?"
"right."
"You know what the Spirit Source Core means to a cultivator, don't you?"
"I know. It's similar to the heart. If it gets damaged, you'll die."
"……right."
So, are you scared?
Xuan Yin looked into Lu Sheng's eyes.
"My spiritual core is right before you. If you wanted to kill me, you wouldn't need to go to such lengths."
"That means you're not afraid."
"I'm not afraid."
Lu Sheng nodded. "Then let's begin. Relax your law defenses so I can scan the internal structure of your spiritual core."
Xuan Yin closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
The layers of laws protecting her body disintegrated one by one. The law shield, spiritual source protection, and even the most basic elemental barrier of the early stage of Spirit Saint were all withdrawn.
At this moment, she exposed her most vulnerable core to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng silently recited in his heart—
"Dragon Eyes."
His vision instantly pierced through Xuan Yin's physical body, reaching the core of her spiritual source.
The Spiritual Source Core, resembling a fist-sized crystal ball, hovered in her dantian. A pale purple light shimmered on its surface—the color of the Sound System's laws.
At the very center of the Spirit Source Core, there is a tiny, emerald green rune mark.
The mark of the law.
The mark was only about the size of a grain of rice, but its fluctuations in laws were extremely complex. Emerald green light spread outward from the center of the mark, intertwining with the pale purple light of the Spirit Source Core itself.
"I saw it," Lu Sheng said.
He transmitted the structure data of the law imprints that the dragon's eyes had scanned to Luo Tianfei.
Three seconds later, Luo Tianfei's voice rang in his mind.
"Data received. Analyzing..."
"The structure of the Law Imprint is divided into three layers. The outermost layer is the signal transmission layer—responsible for transmitting location information and law environment data outwards. The middle layer is the perception layer—passively detecting changes in the surrounding law fluctuations. The innermost layer is the self-destruction layer—deeply bound to the Spirit Source Core, triggered by a remote law command from the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations."
"The interference layer needs to be wrapped around the signal transmission layer. It must not touch the sensing layer or the self-destruct layer. Operational precision requirements—"
Luo Tianfei reported a series of extremely detailed parameters.
Lu Sheng memorized it.
"start."
He raised his right hand, bringing his index and middle fingers together. A very fine thread of spatial law condensed at his fingertips.
The diameter of this thread is less than one millimeter.
He needs to use this thread to weave a miniature spatial folding barrier outside the law imprint at the core of the Xuan Yin Spirit Source.
The barrier must not touch the core of the spiritual source.
One must not touch the perception layer of the law imprint.
It can only hover 0.3 millimeters outside the signal transmission layer.
0.3 millimeters.
Lu Sheng's fingers began to tremble slightly.
It wasn't because of nervousness. It was because controlling such precise spatial laws consumed a tremendous amount of spiritual energy.
"The first thread, location: 12 degrees east of north, height 0.3 millimeters, angle—"
Luo Tianfei began reporting the data.
Lu Sheng's spatial law threads moved with the data, embedding themselves little by little into the tiny space inside the spiritual source core.
One.
Two.
Three.
Each thread requires precise positioning down to the micrometer level. Even the slightest deviation could trigger the sensory layer of the law's imprint, causing a chain reaction.
Time passed second by second.
An hour later, Lu Sheng's forehead was covered in sweat.
"The forty-seventh thread, its position—"
"Wait a minute." Lu Sheng interrupted Luo Tianfei's counting.
His fingers stopped.
"What's wrong?" Luo Tianfei asked.
"The signal emission layer of the Law Imprint... is vibrating."
Lu Sheng's dragon eyes clearly saw that the outermost signal transmission layer of the emerald green law mark was vibrating at an extremely low frequency.
This kind of vibration hadn't happened before.
Was it caused by his actions?
still--
Is the Celestial Venerable of All Things remotely checking the status of the imprint?
"Stop," Lu Sheng told himself.
His spatial law threads remained suspended in place.
Ten seconds passed.
Twenty seconds.
Thirty seconds.
The vibration stopped.
The signal transmission layer has returned to normal.
Lu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's a self-check," Luo Tianfei's voice came. "The Law Mark performs an automatic self-check every so often to detect any external interference. The vibration just now was part of the self-check process."
"What is the interval between self-checks?"
"Based on the data just now, it's estimated to happen approximately every forty-five minutes. Each occurrence lasts about twenty seconds."
"In other words, I need to pause the operation when the self-check starts and continue after the self-check ends."
"right."
Lu Sheng gritted his teeth.
This job was much harder than he had imagined.
But there was no way out.
"Continue. The forty-seventh."
Two more hours passed.
During this period, there were three self-checks. Each time, Lu Sheng stopped precisely before the self-check began and continued only after the self-check passed.
The moment the last thread of spatial law was embedded in the position—
"The weaving is complete," said Luo Tianfei.
Lu Sheng lowered his hand.
My entire back was soaked in sweat.
"Detect the status of the interference layer."
"The spatial folding barrier is stable. The transmission path of the signal transmission layer has been successfully distorted. Judging from the signals received from the outside—Elder Xuanyin's location information is displayed as Earth coordinates, with a deviation of approximately 700 li. The law environment data shows a spiritual source concentration at Earth's standard level."
"Is a deviation of 700 miles enough?"
"That's enough. A deviation of 700 li won't alert the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations—he'll consider it a normal error in signal transmission. But if you take Elder Xuan Yin to G-131, the 420,000 li distance change will be folded by the barrier into a positional drift within 700 li—the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations will still see it as near Earth."
Lu Sheng looked at Xuan Yin.
Xuan Yin kept her eyes closed and remained motionless throughout the entire process.
"Okay. Try opening your eyes."
Xuan Yin opened her eyes. She sensed her spiritual core.
"I sense nothing unusual. The law imprints also show no abnormality."
"That's right. The interference layer is designed so that neither you nor the Celestial Venerable of Myriad Manifestations can perceive its existence."
Xuan Yin looked at Lu Sheng.
She could see the sweat on his back and his slightly trembling fingers.
Three hours of operation with extreme precision. At least 20% of the spiritual energy of a late-stage Spirit Saint was consumed.
Just to help her conceal the signal of the law mark.
"Thank you, sir."
"Don't thank me. This isn't for you. It's for myself. The mark inside you revealed my location; it would be crazy of me not to deal with it."
Lu Sheng stood up and stretched his stiff shoulders.
"Go back and rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow."
His legs felt a little weak when he walked out of the secret room.
It's not from being tired.
It was like a string in my heart that had been taut for three hours suddenly loosened.
