Martial Research Master

Chapter 373

373 HUANGFU HONGUE-Long Tao and all his avatars (except for those who had yet to break through the next realm), were undergoing a huge transformation. Their Law bases were being completely modified, and so was their understanding of the law. What was even more exciting was the size of their law bases( Storage of law energy). They were growing with time, and energy was being madly absorbed from the surroundings.

The energy so absorbed was being actively converted into the avatar’s law energy. The base slowly began to grow, and the power stored in them began to not only solidify but mingle with each other too. The law energy within Long’s Tao’s body no longer felt like heavenly law. It was something unique to Long Tao himself.

The process continued until the law base finally solidified. No matter how much the artifact managed to cover the situation up, the lack of energy in the surrounding area was quite prominent. It was as if the world had been drained out of its life force.

“Congratulations on finally being able to reach the Chaos Law level. Also, congratulations on having eleven avatars who have reached that level under multiple laws. I have officially never even imagined in my wildest dream that this would ever be possible.” The Keeper said.

“Why is it wild?”

“Whoever created the avatar art is not someone whom the artifact or its user could compare to. The guy is not only a genius but a very powerful entity too. You are fortunate to have managed to get your hands on such an art. What is even more shocking is the sheer number. You were able to divide your soul into elven parts.” The Keeper said.

“No matter what, the plan was a success and now you are a Chaos law user. This means that you have virtually reached the highest possible realm for a law user by creating your own personalized set of laws. You have officially set a foot into the renegade path of Qi cultivation.”

“The Renegade path is a path that is completely different and out of your traditional bounds. You do some things which are virtually impossible in your conservative cultivation system. Chaos law is something like that. If I were to define you in a single word, I would say you are a thief.”

“As you can feel around you, the energy has been sucked dry with such intensity that something feels odd from a fundamental basis. That is the requirement of forming a Chaos law. You suck at the very life energy or core energy of worlds to formulate your laws. What does that indicate?” Keeper asked.

.....

“It would indicate that the world would try to prevent me from doing that?” Long Tao said.

“Exactly. From now on, every time you want to try and break through a level within the next realm, you will have to suffer punishment from the world itself.” The Keeper said.

“Isn’t that something which happens during the refining level?” Long Tao asked.

“Well, it is the same, while not being the same at the same time. Both you and those at the refining level use the world’s energy to refine your strength. While in their case they take kind of assistance from the world itself, you steal it directly. Well assistance in the sense that the world still has some type of connection with the energy they absorb.”

“But in your case, you completely absorbed the world’s energy and made it your own. There is no control of the world over you.”

“Wouldn’t that mean that the world would try even harder to get rid of me?” Long tao asked.

“Well, yes. It means exactly that. You will be facing tribulations of the world from the moment you step into the emperor realm. Every step you try to improve, a tribulation will occur. You need to pass through it and climb up to the next level. Your tribulations will grow in intensity over time. If I had to do a rough estimate, by the time you reach the level of Qi Monarch, you will have to face the tribulations that a Dominator faces.”

“Would that make me as powerful as a Dominator?” Long Tao asked.

“Well, I can’t answer that question. You need to grow stronger and find it out by yourself. Just a simple analogy from my side is that, whatever terms you set for a person to qualify as a possible opponent, double that. You are that powerful now. You can use the power of Qi Emperors now.”The Keeper said.

“Do you have some advice for me?”

“Well, we can only take it one at a time. We first need to return to the water-mist village and enter hell. You need to form laws with the qualities of the element you are most compatible with.”

“Don’t I need to do the same with Heaven Qi?” Long Tao asked.

“Well, that is quite complicated. The main reason being the fact that there is no possible way for you to go to Heaven as of now, and the other being you didn’t cultivate any heaven Qi cultivation arts. It just formed due to your body’s composition. If some kind of a miracle does take place, a familiar pattern will happen while you form the laws too.”

“Also, you are a Chaos law user now. You are on the path to form your unique energy. I am just asking you to from laws that are based on or derive inspiration from hell’s laws. Also, you need to go there to complete your Hell-Forging. The summoned energy is no longer powerful enough.” The Keeper said.

“Well, I guess we do need to leave soon. What should I do? The prize master was talking about is something I want. If I didn’t know better, I am sure it some kind of cultivation-related prizes. I need to be there to get that.”

“Well, the law would be based on the concept of hell’s laws. You could just send one of your clones and have them study the laws. They can then help you formulate the laws and also allow me to absorb Hell’s purest energy for the other avatars to use.

Long Tao finally managed to come up with a proper plan. It was at that time that he heard a knock on his door.

...................

“You look concerned.” The old master was asking Ren Wang who came rushing into his room.

“We have a problem.”

“is it related to Li Meng?” The old man asked.

“Yes.” Ren Wang replied.

“then let him handle it. The child is intelligent enough to handle things on his own. If necessary, he will come to me directly.” The old man said.

“The situation is a bit more complicated than that. I just got the news about who challenged Li Meng this time.” Ren Wang said.

“Who was it?” the old man asked.

“It was Huangfu Hongue. He was angry about his cousin’s condition due to Li meng’s actions and wants to take revenge.” Ren Wang said.

“Well, he is still in Qi King level, which makes him eligible for the challenge.” The old man said.

“But master, I hope you understand that Hunafu Hongue is no small deal. He is already at the very last steps of Qi King’s level, waiting and training to solidify his level perfectly. If Li Meng is known to be unstoppable at Qi King level, so is Hunafu Hongue. Both of them have the battle strength of the Qi Emperors. E can’t let this fight proceed, especially now that it is in such a delicate time.”

“Well, I guess he will finally get the fight he desired from someone who is of the same generation as him.” The old man said. “Huangfu knows his limits. He will stop at the right point.”

“Huangfu is not a concern. The main co0ncern is Li Meng. What if he did the same thing as earlier with Huangfu? A storm will arise in the sect. Hunafu is a favored disciple of the sect master.” Ren Wang said.

“Well, you don’t need to worry. Li Meng knows his limits. I guess he will be impressed by Huanfu’s character and power. Also, I am not allowed to take part in a competition between two juniors.” The old man said.

“What if he did the same thing? He will be hunted down by the sect master.”

“If Huanfu has the sect master behind him, he has me. Do I look like someone nervous?” The old man said while looking at Ren Wang. Ren Wang lowered his head in agreement and left the room.

.................

“Who are you?” Li Meng asked.

“I have heard a lot about your name a lot. I hear you are accepting opponents at the Qi King level. I would like to have a competition with you. The same rules apply.” The man said.

“I thought no one would come anymore. Well, I accept. When will we fight.”

“Right now would be the best. Let’s go to the arena.” The man said.

The two people soon stood opposite each other on the stage. The guy raised his sword and pointed it at Li Meng.

“I am Huangfu Hongue. I would like to have a learning experience with you.”
