Martial Hegemony World, a Martial Beast Emperor’s secret realm:
Ao Shen and Zhu Tao worked together to fight a bunch of puppets. There were so many of them and of significant strength, resulting in these two having wounds all over their bodies. In the end, Ao Shen transformed into his real body to fight.
Zhu Tao was not surprised by his appearance, not because he had already seen Ao Shen’s true form. Ao Shen used a bloodline secret technique to make his real body resemble a Flood Dragon with a little bit of Innate bloodline.
Zhu Tao has seen and even killed Flood Dragon in the Pursuing Longevity World, so he was not surprised about the latter’s transformation; all he cared for was the strength Ao Shen displayed, which would allow him to pass this trial and receive the final inheritance.
The two worked together for the next few days to fight this endless horde of puppets. They thought it would be easy to acquire this inheritance, but the reality was much crueler than they imagined. They often came close to dying, forcing them to use their trump cards to survive. Finally, after a month of constant study, they finally passed the trial.
They entered a room with a scroll floating in the middle; strange and mysterious Dao Rhymes emanate from the scroll, soothing people’s minds and making it easier to comprehend this Emperor’s Scripture.
‘That’s it?’ thought Ao Shen, who believed there would be more to the Martial Beast Emperor’s inheritance. Meanwhile, Zhu Tao was excited since he had finally accomplished his goal.
“Let’s comprehend together,” he said, unable to control his excitement, and Ao Shen agreed. They sat before the scroll and let the Dao Rhymes nourish their mind.
“My name is the Martial Beast Emperor,” said a deep voice deep in their minds. “I suppressed a generation with my companion–Little Wolf. I hope future generations can appreciate my Beast Unity Dao and continue my legacy.”
The sounds of Dao reverberated into the room, making it easier for Ao Shen and Zhu Tao to comprehend the mystery of this Emperor Scripture. After an unknown amount of time, they finally awakened, each with a different expression.
Ao Shen was a little disappointed. The scripture gave him many ideas on excavating his bloodline’s power to the limit–just like the Martial Beast’s wolf did. Additionally, it contained a few unique and creative methods to temper the fleshly body.
However, this scripture’s core concept requires two people–one human and one demon–to cultivate, making most of it useless to him, especially since he has no good feelings toward humans.
Ao Shen predicted this outcome, so he expected the Martial Beast Emperor to leave some other rare resources for his inheritor; that’s the primary reason he wanted to come to this secret realm.
Meanwhile, Zhu Tao was excited, unable to contain his smile since waking up: he found the path forward for Qi Cultivators–Law Resonance. He also called this method Qi Resonance or Energy Resonance. The idea is to follow the technique of swordsmen or Profession Dao and create a way for pure energy cultivators to use their Qi/energy to resonate with the laws of Heaven and Earth.
For example, a person who used Fire Qi would resonate with Fire Laws to increase their destructive capabilities.
‘I have already created a prototype of this technique,’ thought Zhu Tao. ‘ All I need to do is complete it after I return. Then, after proving the Dao, I will spread it until it becomes more common amongst the cultivators back home.’
Zhu Tao could already foresee the sect’s elders’ would try to prevent him from spreading such a technique that has the potential to become an Insurgent. However, he did not care.
He had his ambitions and goals, and no one could stop him–not even the Mountain and Sea Sect that raised him since he was a child.
“Brother Ao Shen, let’s go now that we have what we want.”
“Indeed,” replied the dragon as he took one last look before leaving.
“It was my pleasure to work with you,” said Zhu Tao after reuniting with the ancestors of his sect. According to their agreement, each could bring one Ancestor, so Ao Shen also had someone present.
“The pleasure was mine,” replied Ao Shen calmly as he watched Zhu Tao leave with his elders.
“Lord, how was the result?”
“Disappointing,” he shook his head; the gain was nowhere worth the risks he took.
“Is that so?” asked the elder, not hiding the disappointment in his voice.
“There may be a way to turn the situation,” suddenly said Ao Shen with ruthless eyes. He suddenly thought of twisting the core of this scripture and creating one where a demon race enslaved another human being, then absorbed all their cultivations to increase the demon’s power.
‘If I want to do this, I have to be careful not to be discovered by the humans. No, they will find out eventually, so it’s best to use devil cultivators so the discovery will have little to no effect.’
He allied with the Dao Opening Sect and could use it to protect themselves once the news was released.
‘Although this is risky, it’s a great way to make up for the foundation of the demon race in a short time.’ with this method, the demon race can give birth to many more Quasi-Emperors and maybe even a few more powerful Dao Ancestors and Immortal Sovereign. After all, there are loose immortal Dao Ancestors and Immortal Sovereigns. The demon race will significantly benefit as long as they capture them and use the new technique.
“Let’s go,” said Ao Shen, as he did not want to waste time; the rise and fall of the demon race counted on him.
Someone or something suddenly appeared Inside the secret realm after the two left. It was a middle-aged man dressed in animal leather coats and boots.
The spirit was a little disappointed; that’s why he only left the scripture for these two, not the resources part of the inheritance.
“Not to mention they are foreigners.”
After complaining, the spirit waved his hand to create a few more tokens before scattering them in different parts of the Martial Hegemony World, waiting for a destined person. His master gave him a mission, and he could not leave until he accomplished it.
Regardless, the spirit was patient; he would take however long he needed until he found an excellent inheritor for his master.
Myriad Emperor World, Dao Opening Sect:
A few days had passed since the events with the Spirit Genesis Sect. Then, he received a communication talisman that his father had finally left his seclusion. So, he rushed to see him.
As soon as Wang Wei saw his father, his eyes lighted up, and he punched the latter, making Wang Tian’s eyes twitch.
Bang!
The Wang Clang Manor trembled as Wang Tian caught his son’s fist; his action was fast and effortless.
“7 Primordial Dragon Force: not bad,” commented Wang Wei, looking at the white mark on his fist. “Plus, your fleshly body is a sword, and people will get hurt when directly attacking it.”
Wang Wei’s flesh body has the natural property to rebound attacks–primarily physical and energy, while his father’s property is to cut anything that touches it.
“I’ve always wanted to regain my status and pride as a father,” said Wang Tian with a terrifying intent in his eyes. “Now, I have the chance. Do you dare fight with me without using the power of your incarnations?”
“Hehehe, you get a little power, and you’re suddenly swollen,” replied Wang Wei with the corresponding battle intent. “I will be more than happy to put you back in your place. Don’t worry, I’ll seal my strength to the peak of 7-Leaf, just like you.”
“Fine by me.”
Then, the two disappeared, heading to a secret realm for their battles.
“These two,” yelled Yu Yan, but it was already too late, and they already disappeared. “I’ll deal with them when they return.”
Unfortunately for those two, they returned three days later. Wang Wei was in good shape, but Wang Tian was slightly pale. However, their complexion became like ghosts when they saw the scary look Yu Yan was giving them.
“Our family was finally reunited after so many years. But instead of taking this opportunity to bond and converse, you two went to fight for three days. Well, well, look at my well-raised son and responsible husband.”
Sweat fell behind these two backs. Then, Wang Wei acted swiftly, “Blame father; he’s the one who provoked me.”
“You!”
“Isn’t it true?”
“I’m not fallen for that this time. You’ve grown up and should know better.”
“Grow up? No, no, no. It doesn’t matter how old I am, I will always be your child,” said Wang Wei as he embraced his mother. Yu Yan protested for a moment before being unable to resist and held him in her embrace.
“I’m not done with you,” he said to her husband, making Wang Tian smile wryly.
“So, who won anyway?” asked Yu Yan.
“Of course, it’s me,” said Wang Wei.
“Only because of more experience, battle tactic, and a higher recovering method because your body is more powerful.”
“A win is a win. You should be proud you could fight toe-to-toe with me in the same realm,” commented Wang Wei.
