I Can Upgrade Everything Infinitely - Chapter 333 - 287: Great Zhou Dragon Sparrow Saber
CRACK!
BANG!
The two sides clashed and collided.
Xu Qing’s sword met Hong Dingtian’s saber. Neither side used any fancy moves or Divine Techniques; it was a pure clash of Power.
Indeed.
Xu Qing wasn’t a Sword Cultivator in the purest sense, but the Mighty Power of the items and tools he wielded was simply too immense. When all their powers combined, even an ordinary Perfect Array Realm expert would likely not be his match.
BANG BANG BANG!!!
And so,
Hong Dingtian was defeated.
The light from his saber shattered, cracking and splintering into countless fragments before exploding into a shower of brilliance that filled the sky.
A flash of Sword Light shot past.
It pierced through Hong Dingtian’s body.
PFFT!
Drawing a spray of crimson blood.
“You…”
The scene froze.
The terrifying aura surrounding Hong Dingtian began to dissipate, and the black True Dragon condensed from Military Evil Qi slowly faded away…
The stench of death enveloped Hong Dingtian.
“You have lost.”
Xu Qing’s figure appeared. He stood behind Hong Dingtian, then turned to face him, his tone calm. “Which just goes to show, your saber still isn’t strong enough.”
“…”
Hong Dingtian stared at Xu Qing as the life in his eyes rapidly faded…
“What are you going to do?”
Hong Dingtian asked.
However,
Xu Qing did not answer him.
PFFT!
The next moment,
a torrent of blood erupted from Hong Dingtian’s neck. His head had been lopped off, and crimson blood gushed out like a fountain.
“Great Devouring Technique!”
BOOM!
Xu Qing raised his right hand. A black hole-like vortex immediately manifested in his palm, emitting a terrifying Devouring Power that consumed Hong Dingtian completely.
WENG! WENG! WENG!!!
Xu Qing sat down cross-legged and quickly began to refine Hong Dingtian’s Origin and Laws…
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!
And so,
Xu Qing, who had originally only possessed the aura of twenty-some Powers of Laws, found his aura rapidly intensifying as he gradually refined Hong Dingtian’s Origin and Laws.
In the blink of an eye,
the number of Law Marks on Xu Qing reached thirty.
「The battlefield on Jiuzhou Mountain.」
With Hong Dingtian’s death in battle, the morale of the Great Zhou Martial Country’s army collapsed. Although Bai Wuyu was still in command, the situation was beyond saving. They were no match for the Jiuzhou Alliance’s army.
“Retreat!!!”
In the end,
he had no choice.
Bai Wuyu took one last deep look at Xu Qing, then another at Wang Miao and the others, before giving the order to retreat and leading the Great Zhou Martial Country’s army in their escape.
“Don’t pursue a desperate enemy.”
After a short pursuit, Wang Miao and the others ceased their chase. They quickly returned to the battlefield to clean up and tally the casualties.
At the same time,
Wang Miao and his companions observed Xu Qing from a distance, exchanging glances and asking each other questions. They discovered that not a single one of them knew this Hero who called himself ’Huo Yuanjia’.
WENG! WENG! WENG!!!
Xu Qing sat cross-legged, circulating the Great Devouring Technique and gradually entering a meditative state. As he refined Hong Dingtian’s Origin and Laws, his strength continued to rise.
Of course,
Wang Miao and the others didn’t dare disturb Xu Qing’s Cultivation. In fact, they even assigned a number of men to guard him.
Time flew by.
Several hours later,
BOOM!
Xu Qing’s aura surged to a new level. Within his mind, thirty-six Law Marks gathered, tempering his soul and ultimately condensing into a ’Law Primordial Spirit’.
WENG! WENG!
However,
the newly condensed ’Law Primordial Spirit’ was extremely illusory. It wasn’t solid or complete at all; it was merely a preliminary condensation.
Afterward,
with the successful preliminary condensation of his Law Primordial Spirit, Xu Qing’s strength broke through to a new level. His aura intensified as he advanced from the Body Law Realm to the Soul Law Realm.
「Half a day later.」
“Hoo…”
Xu Qing opened his eyes. He had completely refined and absorbed all of Hong Dingtian’s Origin and Laws. His aura had broken through successive levels, reaching Great Success in the Soul Law Realm.
The Soul Law Realm.
This Realm was all about comprehending and mastering Laws, condensing Law Marks, and tempering the soul to forge a ’Law Primordial Spirit’. By comprehending and mastering thirty-six Law Marks, one could achieve a preliminary condensation of the ’Law Primordial Spirit’ and gain initial control over its power.
By doing so,
one would reach the Initial Soul Law Realm.
Next,
by continuing to comprehend Laws, condense Law Marks, and integrate them into the ’Law Primordial Spirit’, one could make a third of the illusory ’Law Primordial Spirit’ become solid after comprehending and mastering one hundred and eighty Law Marks.
At that point,
one would reach Minor Achievement in Soul Law Realm.
The power of the Law Primordial Spirit would grow even stronger.
By continuing to comprehend and master Laws, condensing Law Marks, and constantly integrating them into the ’Law Primordial Spirit’, one could improve its completeness step by step.
As long as one condensed three hundred Law Marks within the Law Primordial Spirit, two-thirds of it would become solid, and one would reach Great Success in Soul Law Realm.
’Great Success in Soul Law Realm.’
WENG! WENG!
With a thought, Xu Qing sensed the Law Primordial Spirit deep within his mind. A powerful force from the Law Primordial Spirit surged around his body.
’As expected of the Great Zhou Martial Country’s strongest fighter.’
Xu Qing had gradually stabilized his Cultivation. Waking from his meditative state, he mused, ’Hong Dingtian himself had reached Great Success in Soul Law Realm. After I killed him and refined all of his Origin and Laws, there was some loss during the refinement process.’
’But,’
’by using the Devouring Demon Technique, the Devouring Law, and the Mighty Power of the Great Devouring Technique, I refined nearly ninety percent of his Origin and Laws. This took my Cultivation directly from the Perfect Body Law Realm to Great Success in Soul Law Realm.’
’This advancement…’
’My strength has truly increased by a great deal.’
’Also…’
’I have to admit, the Devouring Demon Technique is truly domineering. After completely mastering the Devouring Law and the Great Devouring Technique, as long as the target I devour is strong enough, my Cultivation and Realm will improve all the faster.’
’However…’
Xu Qing took a deep breath. He could feel the power of the three hundred Laws churning restlessly within him, as if they were about to transform into a boundless tsunami and swallow his sanity.
Evidently,
this was a side effect of using the Great Devouring Technique to rapidly raise his Cultivation. The devoured and refined Laws could backfire, even to the point of overwhelming his own consciousness.
Fortunately,
Xu Qing managed to suppress this backlash and was slowly recovering.
「Meanwhile.」
「In the Great Zhou Imperial City.」
WENG! WENG!
Bai Wuyu led the defeated army home. The first battle against the Jiuzhou Alliance’s army had been a failure, and what’s more, National Guardian General Hong Dingtian had died on the battlefield.
In the Imperial Palace.
Inside the great hall.
Bai Wuyu was on his knees.
“…”
Around him,
the many court ministers also had pale faces.
On the dragon throne,
Emperor Yuanwu, Zhou Di, kept his head lowered, his expression grim. An extremely oppressive atmosphere filled the entire hall, for Bai Wuyu had not only brought news of their defeat but also the devastating tidings of Hong Dingtian’s fall.
One could say,
this was a tremendous shock to the Court of the Great Zhou Martial Country.
After all,
Hong Dingtian had remained unscathed even when facing the Blood Demon Sect. Yet, when facing the army of the Jiuzhou Alliance, he had been defeated and killed.
“Your Majesty.”
Bai Wuyu continued, “The Jiuzhou Alliance’s army isn’t actually that strong. It’s just that a terrifying expert named ’Huo Yuanjia’ appeared. His strength is too immense. This subordinate believes that he has likely reached the Perfect Law Realm and touched the Extreme of the Fourth Realm.”
“Grand General Hong Dingtian was defeated by this Huo Yuanjia and died at his hands. That is the sole reason for our defeat and why we were forced to retreat to the Imperial City.”
