Seeing Yu Lei's confident expression, the Primordial Lord of the Heavens couldn't help but smile.
"Good, it's good that you have confidence."
"My lecture is still some time away, if you have any questions, feel free to ask."
Facing a Saint's guidance, Yu Lei naturally wouldn't be polite. He quickly asked a few questions about his cultivation.
The Primordial Lord of the Heavens also answered him with a gentle smile.
He was very fond of his newly acquired disciple, the Good Aspect of himself.
"Hmm, you little guy, even though you just became a Golden Immortal, you've mastered quite a few Laws."
"Huh? You actually know this Divine Art? Where did you learn it from?"
"Tsk tsk, these two techniques of yours are really good. I don't even need to change your cultivation techniques."
.................
The more he guided, the more surprised the Primordial Lord of the Heavens became.
As a teacher, the Primordial Lord of the Heavens was very responsible. He gave things like treasures to his disciples, but the most fundamental things were their cultivation techniques and Divine Arts.
But what the Primordial Lord of the Heavens hadn't expected was that Yu Lei, despite being a self-cultivator, had no shortcomings in his cultivation techniques and Divine Arts. He didn't need to worry about him at all.
To this, Yu Lei could only shyly say: "I had some good fortune before."
Regarding Yu Lei's good fortune, the Primordial Lord of the Heavens just smiled, with no intention of probing further.
After guiding Yu Lei for a while, the Primordial Lord of the Heavens realized that he didn't actually have much to teach him.
In terms of realm, Yu Lei's current realm had already surpassed that of ordinary Golden Immortals. He was even comparable to the Great Yi Golden Immortals.
All he lacked now were the resources he needed to improve his realm, such as what was needed for cultivating his physical body and enhancing his spiritual power.
But the Primordial Lord of the Heavens wasn't one to force things.
He would generously give Yu Lei Innate Spiritual Treasures for self-defense, but he didn't want to directly pour a Golden Core into him and create a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
In the Primordial Lord of the Heavens' view, realm improvement was best done step by step.
Yu Lei, for his part, didn't want to take too much advantage of the Primordial Lord of the Heavens either. The two of them were on the same page.
The Primordial Lord of the Heavens said with a smile, "There's not much I can teach you. What you need now is to travel more, see more, and experience more. Of course, you can listen to my lectures."
It was quite taxing for a Saint to deliver a lecture, and they couldn't do it solely for Yu Lei.
Yu Lei immediately nodded, "Lord Teacher's teachings, I will keep them in my heart!"
The Primordial Lord of the Heavens smiled slightly and transformed into a stream of light, returning to the Jade Lake Palace.
He still had to prepare for his next lecture, which was a hundred years away. And the Sword Daoist, standing next to him, smiled at Yu Lei and disappeared in the same way.
In the Jade Lake Palace, the Primordial Lord of the Heavens and the Sword Daoist sat opposite each other, looking at Yu Lei outside. The Primordial Lord of the Heavens couldn't help but sigh.
There were some things he hadn't told his disciple.
He did support the idea of establishing a branch sect.
But he didn't have much faith in relying on a branch sect to save the entire Intercession Sect.
In his view, the Great Calamity was approaching, and the general trend was already irreversible.
The time left for him, for Yu Lei, was too short.
What difference would it make if Yu Lei became a Great Luo Golden Immortal during the Great Calamity?
What could a single Great Luo Golden Immortal do in the Great Calamity? Even if he became a Quasi-Saint, it would just be a fleeting illusion.
Below the Saints, all are ants. These words weren't just empty rhetoric!
And under the great will of the Heavenly Dao, even a Heavenly Dao Saint was nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot!
The only reason he agreed to Yu Lei's plan to create a branch sect was to leave a spark of hope for the Intercession Sect.
"Sigh."
A sigh echoed through the Jade Lake Palace, lingering for a long time.
.............................
As the Primordial Lord of the Heavens returned to the Jade Lake Palace, Yu Lei finally returned to the normal flow of time.
It didn't seem like much time had passed around him, and no one noticed his absence.
No one knew that Yu Lei had secretly taken the Sword Daoist, the Good Aspect of the Primordial Lord of the Heavens, as his master.
At this moment, Yu Lei relaxed. Even though the Primordial Lord of the Heavens was very easy to talk to, he was still a Heavenly Dao Saint, and facing him still put a lot of pressure on Yu Lei.
Seeing the Primordial Lord of the Heavens leave, Yu Lei decided to organize his gains.
The Sword Dao Gourd, as a strange treasure, was easy to refine. Yu Lei simply refined it and then stored it in his body, nurturing it with Sword Dao and silently infusing it with his Sword Intent.
He had the Time Wheel, allowing him to use one year as a hundred years.
In other words, he could infuse his Sword Intent a hundredfold in one year, unleashing an attack a hundred times stronger than his own!
For Yu Lei, this was also a trump card.
Putting away the Sword Dao Gourd, Yu Lei began to carefully examine the twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls in his hand.
He had heard countless stories about this treasure's legend.
After examining it carefully, Yu Lei was pleasantly surprised to discover that this treasure was very beneficial to those of low realm.
Since each Sea-Calming Pearl was only at the Lower Innate level, it meant that it didn't have many Innate Restrictions within it. Yu Lei didn't have any trouble refining them.
If Yu Lei were to be given a real top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, he wouldn't be able to refine many Innate Restrictions and wouldn't be able to exert much power.
Yu Lei didn't hesitate and began to refine the twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls under the hundredfold flow of time.
【You have refined 2 Innate Restrictions from the Sea-Calming Pearl. You have comprehended the Lesser Divine Art: Flow Cut】
..................
【You have refined 12 Innate Restrictions from the Sea-Calming Pearl. Your Water Law has been enhanced. Current Water Law: 25%！】
...................
As Yu Lei initially refined the twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls, his other gains came with them.
First was the Lesser Divine Art Flow Cut. This was one of the seventy-two Lesser Divine Arts of the Earthly Fiends. It could make rivers flow backwards and split water, making it quite useful.
And the enhancement of the Water Law was even more obvious. It was expected.
As his Water Law increased, Yu Lei's power in manipulating the Innate Water Spirit Pearl and the Innate Overturning Sea Great Formation in the sea also increased significantly.
Once the treasures were refined, Yu Lei didn't delay any further.
The Primordial Lord of the Heavens was a very qualified teacher, with a sharp eye.
Yu Lei's realm was already improving very rapidly, and his combat power was far beyond that of his peers.
Therefore, what he needed wasn't excessive forcing, but more experiences.
Yu Lei also agreed with this point.
Therefore, after resting for a while, Yu Lei immediately set off and left Golden鰲 Island, continuing his travels in the East Sea.
After all, there was still a whole hundred years before the Primordial Lord of the Heavens' next lecture. Yu Lei had plenty of time.
....................
This time, Yu Lei's travels in the prehistoric world weren't aimless.
After all, he had comprehended the Primordial Lord of the Heavens' Ten Ultimate Formations. How could he not try to gather the materials needed for them?
Each formation in the Ten Ultimate Formations required specific materials, and collecting them wasn't easy.
While traveling through the East Sea, although he had the All-Seeing Divine Eye and the Fortune Law, he had only collected a portion of them.
However, luckily, his other gains in terms of heavenly and earthly treasures were not lacking at all.
Although he hadn't encountered any Innate-level treasures, he had accumulated quite a lot by gathering little by little.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Lei had been traveling in the East Sea for hundreds of years.
One day, as Yu Lei was resting on an island reef, a sudden tremor came from the distant horizon!
Then, a spiritual energy vortex, vast and mighty, swept in from the East Sea!
All living beings within millions of miles could clearly see it.
Yu Lei's eyes lit up immediately: "What a commotion!"
Such a commotion could only be caused by the birth of an Innate-level treasure, and its grade was definitely not low!
