The First Sword Emperor was truly dazzled by Jiang Ming.
In the past, he had never seen such an extraordinary genius. Today’s battle was fought with the intention of pushing Jiang Ming to his limits.
It was also a trial to forge himself.
At this moment, Jiang Ming’s aura skyrocketed rapidly. The horrifying power of his blood energy was so intense that it twisted the Void, causing the surrounding Divine Kingdom Projections to tremble.
“Law of Heaven and Earth, twelve layers.”
“Inch Fist, forty-three times burst!”
“Infinite Rules, a hundred times the power.”
“Life Gene Tier, twenty times.”
“Exploding Heart Skill, triple forbidden technique.”
Jiang Ming’s body instantaneously grew to thirty-six meters tall. The power surged, the blood energy surged like a tide, power exploded twelve times.
The Inch Fist was even more terrifying, having already been cultivated to the forty-second layer.
The most dreadful was the Infinite Rules. After ultimate, it directly bestowed a hundredfold power to the physical body blood energy. How horrifying.
This is the true way of the physical body, the unrivaled method of increasing combat power.
With these various boosts, Jiang Ming’s punch displayed a power of thirty million and nine hundred thousand times its original power.
Nine Transformations of the Body, thirty million Vajra Force.
Plus the multiplication of its explosive power.
That one punch contained over ninety billion Vajra Force.
After the punch, Jiang Ming’s body started to crack. Fortunately, he had a powerful pocket world suppressing it within him, barely preventing him from being shaken into a cloud of blood.
“What a terrifying power!” The First Sword Emperor’s eyebrows jumped wildly, unable to remain calm, as he raised his hand and slapped it forward, condensing divine light.
In the center of his palm, a minuscule world seemed to have formed.
Boom-
The next moment, the collision of fist and palm released an energy torrent, reducing everything around them into chaos.
All laws, all principles, were all obliterated.
The First Sword Emperor’s complexion changed; his whole body flickered uncertainly, and he couldn’t help but retreat three steps back.
Each step crushed the Void into a black hole, causing the surrounding starry sky to tremble.
Hong Xuanji, who was watching the battle, couldn’t help but exclaim, “If I take that punch head-on, I would be turned into a blood mist.”
“Indeed, you can’t withstand it!” The First Sword Emperor nodded. “Pure physical power, Jiang Ming, you can explode to this degree. You are defying the heavens and made me retreat.”
“It’s only forcing you to retreat.” Jiang Ming muttered, “You’re the first one who has been able to withstand my punch so easily.”
“To some extent, I can already be considered a god.” The First Sword Emperor said, his spirits lifting slightly, “Under the force of that punch just now, your physical body could not withstand it. I saw your skin cracking with countless bloodstains, but in the blink of an eye, you recovered as if nothing had happened. With such regenerative ability, it would be very difficult for you even if you wanted to die.”
“Jiang, my brother, come on!”
“Today, let loose and show me the extent of your limits? Also, let’s see if your potential has been fully exploited?”
“Don’t be afraid to kill me, all you have to do is give it your all.”
The First Sword Emperor’s momentum became even stronger.
His face was filled with excitement.
“I have one more superior technique, though it’s not yet mature, you taste it.” Jiang Ming pulled out the Return to Ruins Axe. His aura instantly became incredibly sharp, capable of cutting through heaven and earth, breaking the world.
“Power of the Flesh, Power of the Soul, Power of the Pocket World, Spirit Power!”
In an instant, he merged numerous powers into one, leading with the Heaven Creation Skill, and sliced out the ultimate strike.
It was the Heaven Creation Skill.
“It contains the supreme Dao power of the Creation of Heaven and Earth, specifically restraining Divine Kingdoms.” The First Sword Emperor’s pupils contracted. “It’s more powerful and terrifying than the previous strike. Divine Kingdom, condense.”
He reached out a hand and slapped it forward. The projection that encompassed thousands of miles suddenly shrank, forming a real small world in his palm.
The First Sword Emperor also slapped down on the axe light.
Boom…
The ensuing torrent was even more terrifying, the recoil alone caused Jiang Ming’s arm to explode and turn into a mist of blood.
However, the strong regenerative power caused the blood to flowbackwards, the bones to reconstruct, and in the blink of an eye, he was whole again.
Looking again at the First Sword Emperor, he was blasted backwards, landing a kilometer away, before instantly reappearing nearby with a flicker of his body.
With a flick of his sleeve, the rolling waves of destruction were banished into the space-time fold.
“Impressive, impressive!” The First Sword Emperor praised as he looked at Jiang Ming, “I had almost used full power to defend, yet I was still thrown backward, nearly wounded. Brother Jiang, your offensive power, I dare say is invincible under the twelfth level. Even at the quasi-twelfth level, it’s hard to compete with you in terms of offence.”
“But I still can’t hurt you!” Jiang Ming’s face was even more bitter.
He originally thought that with his current combat power, even if he couldn’t kill a twelfth-level strongman, it wouldn’t be difficult to seriously injure them.
But as it turned out, he hadn’t even managed to touch his opponent.
The man in front of him was merely defending.
“What if my strength was five times stronger?” Jiang Ming asked earnestly.
“In our brief skirmishes, I can see that you have infinite potential that has yet to be tapped,” said the First Sword Emperor brightly. “You are following the path of fusion. The fusion of rules, qi, blood, spirit, and soul. It’s remarkably dazzling, not only overwhelming this era, but is already enough to shock an era. But for you, it’s not enough.”
“Brother Qin, please guide me!” Jiang Ming humbly asked.
“The path of fusion is the best way to strengthen your combat power, but what you imbued is too crude.” said the First Sword Emperor. “I guess, the more types of laws you fuse, your power should at least double with each additional type. Your burst is strong, but it does not reach the level of a hundred kinds of fusions.”
“If a hundred rules were perfectly fused, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to stop it. No, I definitely wouldn’t be able to stop it.” The First Sword Emperor spoke, pointing towards the vast starry sky. “Just like this universe, a single rule is not strong, but when many rules are constructed and woven together, it forms an incomparably vast universe. Countless species, innumerable lives, live here. Even if they reach the twelfth realm, they are insignificant in the face of this universe. I have had conversations with many wise beings. The heavens, all things, and the source of the universe should all be evolved from a weave of rules. From Tao comes one, from one comes two, from two comes three, from three come all things. Conversely, all things return to one, to Tao, is this not the evolution of rules?”
“Your final blow, although it fused many system powers, seemed to be very strong, but it also forsaked the essentials for the trivial!”
“Spirit and soul are similar and can be merged. Dig deeper in this area, target the heart and soul for attack, as long as you slightly shake it, you can differentiate victory and defeat, and serve as an auxiliary method.”
“Your physical body is domineering, and you can continue to dig and boost it. When you reach the tenth realm, you will evolve more terrifying offensive arts. Combined with the attacks of the mind, you will be unstoppable.”
“In fact, the fusion of martial arts rules should be your strongest method, the road with the greatest potential. You should not pursue multi-territorial fusion, but should develop in the direction of perfect fusion of rules.”
“A hundred kinds of rules, once you achieve perfect fusion…”
“Under one hit, you might be able to kill the twelfth tier and break open the universe!”
The last sentence was spoken with a hint of jesting by the First Sword Emperor.
Jiang Ming, however, was deeply shocked.
He thought of a divine skill: Heavenly Essence Strike.
Fusing all paths, with one finger piercing through three thousand universes.
“Thank you, Brother Qin, your words are like a slap on the head for the man in the dream.” Jiang Ming gratefully said.
He has a startlingly high comprehension, once he heard the explanation, he immediately understood.
In the past, while following the fusion path, he was overly extreme. All he wanted to do was fuse several systems of strength together, resulting in a misfit.
Not only was it a waste of time, but he also ended up going in too many wrong directions.
“There is no distinction between the three thousand great paths, but they have their respective strengths and weaknesses. Among the four types of systems, the martial arts system has the most variations, and has the strongest potential.” Jiang Ming was enlightened, but he quickly changed the subject. “Brother Qin, if the power of my physical outbreak were to increase by five times, would you be able to withstand it?”
“No problem!”
“What about fifty times?”
“If I’m only opposed by you, I would have to use my full strength to possibly hold out. If one or two of my peers are entangling me, I might get blown up.” The First Sword Emperor’s smile was not hidden, “Do you young man have any ideas?”
“Indeed!” Jiang Ming laughed, then turned serious, “But I would need your full support.”
“The treasury is fully open for you!” The First Sword Emperor solemnly said, “You can enhance at your will, if there’s anything particularly needed, I’ll personally prepare it for you.”
“That’s fantastic!” Jiang Ming was excited, but then he said, “I have another method, can you try to withstand it?”
Another technique?
The First Sword Emperor was taken aback..
