“A low rank Profound Meaning evolving into a high rank one?”
Ming Yu had gone back to the base camp to cultivate but Lu Li was still deliberating about this.
According to his previous understanding, Profound Meanings’ powers were determined after he mastered it. Now he was told Profound Meanings could be advanced?
This was a new window of opportunity for Lu Li. Did it mean that the Mirror Imagine and the Speed Profound Meanings could both be upgraded?
Ming Yu’s knowledge of Profound Meanings was still not enough. Lu Li felt confused as always. He decided to go to Cheng Qu and Hu Lang for help.
“Buzzing!”
Hearing Lu Li’s question, Hu Lang built a transparent shield over them and the other Human Sovereign Realm warriors so their discussions were not heard by others.
Hu Lang said, “State Councilor, normally speaking, we shouldn’t tell anyone that isn’t at the Human Sovereign Realm about Profound Meanings. Because when a warrior cannot reach the Human Sovereign Realm, it means that the warrior cannot really grow to be a powerful warrior and it is pointless to learn more than one should know.”
The other Human Sovereign Realm warriors nodded agreement. Hu Lang continued, “But, State Councilor, now that you have asked, I will dwell upon the basics. Laws in heaven and earth are embodied in Profound Meanings. There are nine ranks and the higher the rank is, the more you will understand about laws in heaven and earth.”
“Low rank Profound Meanings represent only the shallowest of laws in heaven and nature, so their powers are limited. High rank ones interpret deep enough into the laws in heaven and earth and you can leverage more powers thusly. The Profound Meaning is mightier, understandably.”
“Given that all Profound Meanings are embodiments of laws in heaven and earth, low and high rank ones are interconnected. As a matter of fact…many low ranks ones can be upgraded into high rank ones. It may be said that to learn high rank Profound Meanings, you must learn the low rank ones first. Some high rank Profound Meanings can be learned directly while others are achieved by combining low rank ones of various sorts.”
“The Space Sealing, the seventh rank Profound Meaning your man just learned, we will use this as an example. He will have to learn ‘Force’ before he can learn about Space Sealing. The Armor of Earth, your grandpa’s Profound Meaning, is an eighth rank Profound Meaning. But he didn’t learn it directly. He had learned two sixth rank Profound Meanings and then integrated them together…”
Hu Lang spoke for a long time. Lu Li now had a basic understanding of Profound Meanings. He took a while to digest the information.
“Whoosh~”
While Lu Li was about to continue his inquiry, he heard a noise from afar. Ye Cha shouted from the distance, “All back to the valley. A Fire Leopard King has been alarmed. Go now!”
“Retreat—”
Lu Li was startled. He flew up and shouted. Fire Leopard King could be as powerful as a Human Sovereign Realm warrior. Noble Lord Realm warriors didn’t stand a chance when faced with a Fire Leopard King.
“Whoosh, whoosh~”
Hu Lang and the others were in combat position. They flew up and stood in a fan, preparing to fight the Fire Leopard King.
“Fall back!”
Ke Mang waved his hand in pity. The ancient formation was yet to be built. It was being built to combat Fire Leopard King. But he had wasted many Mystical Materials without any accomplishments.
The more than 1000 warriors swarmed back to the valley. Lu Ling left some more powerful Noble Lord Realm warriors to guard at the opening of the valley while the rest were sent back to the base camp. She also told those already at the base camp to stop cultivation and be prepared to go back to the Deserted World at any time.
“Roar~”
From the distance came a shocking roar. From the horizon, a huge Fire Leopard was running over with a group of Fire Leopards. The Fire Leopard King was many times larger than regular Fire Leopards. Its vertical eye seem to produce sparkles as it blinked. It felt horrifying. Even Lu Li felt suffocated by its influence.
“Saint Lord, go back to the valley. Leave the Fire Leopard King to us!”
God of Meng said to Lu Li. Hu Lang nodded, “One Fire Leopard King and we have six Human Sovereign Realm warriors. We should be fine. State Councilor, go back now.”
“Be careful!”
Lu Li nodded. He didn’t try to push himself. He was not capable enough to face a Beast King that could be as powerful as Human Sovereign Realm warriors. By staying behind, he would only drag others down.
Lu Li went back to the valley, staying next to Lu Ling. They looked through the opening of the valley at the Fire Leopard King in the distance.
“Roar~”
There came another yell. The Fire Leopard King dashed on like as shooting star. It was so fast that Lu Li had to use psychic power in order to get a clear view of the Fire Leopard King.
The Fire Leopard King was enveloped by streams of red air, especially around its hooves. It was as if the Fire Leopard King was stepping on red clouds.
Every time it stepped on the ground, it could make the earth quake and the ground crack. With every leap, it could jump high into the sky. It could change course in midair, very terrifying.
“Hoy!”
God of Meng was surrounded by a golden glare. Dark golden scales appeared on his naked skin. He kicked backward on the ground and dashed toward the Fire Leopard King. In his right hand, there was a small shield. He held a huge saber in the left hand and stood in front of others willingly.
“Woo, woo~”
The Fire Leopard King spurted out a stream of red air from its mouth. Force in heaven and earth began to move. Lu Li could feel clearly that a surge of power was converging around God of Meng. He couldn’t move the huge saber in his hand.
“Crack~”
The Fire Leopard King raised its claw and scratched at God of Meng’s chest. An armor appeared but it was cracked in an instant.
The Fire Leopard King pointed its horn toward God of Meng’s chest. It pierced through the armor and into God of Meng’s chest regardless of the resistance from the armor.
“Pff~”
God of Meng was smashed away under the tremendous force. He spilled out blood in midair, his face bleached.
God of Meng was hurt by the Fire Leopard King in one move. Even though the horn didn’t stab into his heart, it was a terrible blow nonetheless.
“Hoy!”
The other Human Sovereign Realm warriors made their moves. If the Fire Leopard King hurt them one by one, they would all perish here.
Cheng Yu let out dragons of fire which entangled the Fire Leopard King. He had learned a Profound Meaning of fire properties. His dragons of fire could not only burn but also entangle enemies to slow them down. If he could entangle the Fire Leopard King with dragons of fire, it would slow down and become a still target for others.
“Hoy, Claws of Void!”
The Master of Lotus Society generated a huge blue claw which came pressing down from the sky. His goal was also to restrain the Fire Leopard King from moving and attacking.
“Whoosh~”
However, the Fire Leopard King was too fast. It smashed away God of Meng with another claw. The red clouds over its four hooves glistened as it dodged aside and headed toward the Master of the Lotus Society.
“Hmm!”
A purple glare came off from the neck of Hei Ni, Master of Lotus Society. A huge shadow of a purple beast came into being, dashing toward the Fire Leopard King. The shadow and the beast collided against each other but there was no explosion. The purple beast shadow slowed the Fire Leopard King down.
“Roar, roar~”
The Fire Leopard King howled. The air stream from its mouth surrounded its body like balls of fire. Hei Ni’s purple beast shadow began to thin down. Its energy was draining.
“Good!”
One second was enough to make a distinction between winning and losing in a fight between the powerful. Hei Ni’s Bloodline Skill hindered the cruel attacks from the Fire Leopard King. Now, it was their turn to fight back.
“Charge—”
Being injured had woken up the ferocious character within God of Meng. Taking no heed of the bleeding chest, he flew up, swung his black-air covered saber and cut at the Fire Leopard King.
“Now, kill this bastard!”
Hu Lang yelled. All the Human Sovereign Realm warriors began to attack at the Fire Leopard King from different sides.
