Simulating Endless Possibilities: Invincible Once I Act

Chapter 138: Immortal Clan's 'Restraint Weapon'

[In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.]

[Your battle with that Mortal Immortal was still ongoing.]

[Initially, he saw that you were only at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing stage and thought he could easily defeat you and seize the chance to live from Little Peach.]

[Unfortunately for him, you were not as easy to deal with as he had imagined.]

[Although you hadn't learned many spells and your combat techniques were relatively few,]

[Your calm demeanor always allowed you to make the best choices at critical moments.]

[You utilized the Law of Wind to keep moving, then used the Law of Thunder, the True Meaning of the Killing Dao, and the Silent Destruction Fist to counterattack in the gaps.]

[Even when he used wide-range attacks that you couldn't completely dodge, you always managed to avoid fatal spots and relied on your robust Martial Dao physical body to withstand the blows.]

[This made the Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Clan extremely frustrated.]

[After all, the Mortal Immortal realm represents a qualitative leap over the typical Tribulation Crossing stage.]

[This is mainly reflected in three aspects.]

[First, spiritual energy transforms into immortal energy, making attacks more powerful!]

[Second, the body undergoes the baptism of the tribulation for becoming an immortal, compensating for the physical weaknesses of cultivators.]

[Third, the comprehension of laws.]

[Upon reaching the Mortal Immortal realm, one inevitably comprehends a law; afterward, the sensitivity to the laws of heaven and earth becomes stronger and easier to enhance!]

[But you, even without reaching the Mortal Immortal realm, possessed some of these qualities.]

[Attack power? The True Meaning of the Killing Dao, the Law of Thunder, the Silent Destruction Fist, and the Heavenly Profound Sword you haven't even used yet—all these enhance your attack power.]

[Physical strength? You cultivate both the Divine Dao and Martial Dao; for ordinary cultivators of the same realm, hitting you is like scratching an itch.]

[Comprehension of laws? With the Taotie Divine Body, you had long comprehended the Law of Thunder and the Law of Wind; the True Meaning of the Killing Dao also counts as a law.]

[Your comprehension of laws even surpassed that of some weaker Mortal Immortals.]

[So, although it seemed like you were fighting a stronger opponent, your overall strength was not inferior to his, and might even be a bit stronger.]

[Of course, you weren't fully aware of this.]

[Even though Little Peach had reached the Earth Immortal realm, she couldn't fully explain it.]

[After all, both of you were self-taught cultivators without a master to guide you.]

[Everything had to be figured out on your own.]

[In this battle, besides wanting to improve your combat experience, you also aimed to understand the techniques of the Mortal Immortal realm.]

[You wanted to accurately gauge your own combat strength and the strength of the Mortal Immortal realm.]

[Now, you had the answers you sought.]

[Thus, you no longer held back and softly called out, "Heavenly Profound," as the Heavenly Profound Sword appeared in your hand.]

[This divine sword had never tasted blood since you acquired it, and you were eager to see its power.]

[The moment the Heavenly Profound Sword appeared, you clearly sensed a surge of killing intent from the blade.]

[This killing intent wasn't directed at anyone else, only at the Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Clan.]

[At that moment, you suddenly understood something.]

[You realized that this was likely influenced by the Sword Spirit Guo Qing's hatred for the Immortal Clan.]

[After all, Guo Qing had been in constant battle with the people of the Immortal Realm during his lifetime.]

[It wasn't surprising that he harbored killing intent toward the Immortal Realm!]

[What you didn't expect was that even though Guo Qing, as the Sword Spirit, was in a deep slumber, the Heavenly Profound Sword's killing intent toward the Immortal Realm was still so pronounced.]

[Under the shroud of the Heavenly Profound Sword's killing intent, the Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Realm showed a drastic change in expression.]

[He didn't recognize the sword, but he sensed a strong feeling of impending death from it.]

[He believed that continuing to fight you would undoubtedly lead to his death.]

[He glanced at you and, disregarding Little Peach's earlier threats, turned and fled.]

[Clearly, he felt that the threat from the Heavenly Profound Sword was greater than that from Little Peach, who was at the Earth Immortal realm.]

[Seeing this, you chuckled softly, stroked the Heavenly Profound Sword, and then performed a somewhat unfamiliar killing intent sword technique.]

[The True Meaning of the Killing Dao within you merged into the sword technique and converged onto the Heavenly Profound Sword.]

[Instantly, the originally snow-white Heavenly Profound Sword turned blood-red, and a blood-like Sword Qi surged forth.]

[It chased after the fleeing Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Realm.]

["Boom!" The Sword Qi pierced through his body!]

[The Mortal Immortal from the Immortal Realm turned into a pool of blood, leaving no bones behind.]

[Seeing this, you stroked the Heavenly Profound Sword, thoughts swirling in your mind.]

[You felt that you could be bolder when facing people from the Immortal Realm in the future.]

[Previously, you knew that the Heavenly Profound Sword could enhance your combat strength, but you didn't expect that using it against the Immortal Clan would not just provide a small buff, but a massive damage boost!]

[This reminded you of a term from a game in your previous life: "counter weapon."]

[The Heavenly Profound Sword was practically a counter weapon against the Immortal Clan!]

[After the battle, you and Little Peach cleaned up the battlefield and headed toward the military camp in the direction of the Nine Mystic Realm.]

[This small mission had earned you both some military merits.]

[You gave all the merits to Little Peach, letting her exchange them for cultivation resources to rapidly advance her realm.]

[Not only that, but you also gave her all the remaining resources you had.]

[Little Peach initially refused, but under your insistence, she eventually accepted.]

[Afterward, she cultivated even more diligently.]

[She felt that, no matter what, she couldn't let you down.]

[She also thought that if she became stronger, she could better protect you.]

[In the days that followed, Little Peach went into seclusion for cultivation.]

[You also continued to train in combat techniques and comprehend laws.]

[In the 120th year, you stood alone in a training ground at a military camp.]

[You felt a bit helpless.]

[Ten years had passed, and the progress of the War God Body and the Killing Intent Sword Technique was extremely slow, barely reaching the entry level.]

[As for the comprehension of laws? Without external resources, you couldn't use the Taotie Divine Body.]

[Relying solely on your own comprehension was like a drop in the ocean, with minimal progress, almost imperceptible.]

[And this was with the cultivation buffs from your Late Bloomer talent and the Heaven Rewards Diligence talent; without these two talents, you might not have made any progress at all in these ten years.]

[At this moment, you suddenly realized something!]

[You felt that perhaps leaving the Southern Regions was a mistake.]

[If you had stayed in the Southern Regions, at least for the Killing Intent, the Law of Thunder, and even the Law of Fire, there seemed to be good resource points for you to cultivate.]

[Just as you thought of this, you suddenly frowned.]

[Was this another coincidence?]

[No, impossible! You didn't believe in so many coincidences.]
