Martial Research Master

“I think I will first complete the element laws since the last remaining wood and fire element are already at the earthen level. Connecting with them would be the easiest. For the other two, I am wondering if I am ready to connect with compound laws.”

“You want to connect with compound laws. Do you have experience in using compound energy, except for highly draining last-minute refuge arts, like the Dominator’s fist?”

“I manage to combine ten different kinds of energies while creating the art, and it has just three moves until now. I am confident to connect with compound laws. I feel that it would make it much easier for me to walk that path.”

“I understand where you are coming from. But connecting with so many energies at the same time isn’t simple. Especially when you connect with multiple types of elemental energies. You could become prone to backlash.”

“What kind of backlash are you talking about?” Long Tao was intrigued.

“Too many kinds of energies, while powerful, bring too many complications within your body. If your body and soul is not capable enough, the extreme combinations and contradictions bring about a lot of backlash. Your body might not be able to handle it, even with the compound body laws.”

“The backlash wouldn’t be too much for me. I am planning to use the formation that we used earlier.”

“That is too risky. The depletion of soul energy is just too much for you to handle alone. Last time it took all your avatars to combine supply you with every type of energy possible to get the work done. Even if you are acquainted with the process, it is not going to be possible for you to do it alone.”

.....

“What if my teacher help?”

“He is just a Qi emperor. Transmitting soul energy is not going to be possible for him. He wouldn’t be able to satisfy your supply needs. If there is someone who could help, it would be the Qi Monarch. He could help you formulate the formation.”

“A Qi Monarch supplying me with soul energy might be the key, but the old man would be suspicious. If he is the one who is going to provide me with the soul energy, he would be able to sense the secrets of my body.”

“Aren’t you showcasing your talent this time? Why are you nervous?” The Keeper asked.

“What about the other law energies he is going to sense when I connect with Heavenly laws. All the other laws are going to suddenly activate. What will I do then?”

“I have an idea for you. You could say that you are using special equipment which you found in a QI monarch’s inheritance. Tell them it is a breakthrough treasure which helps in boosting law energy within the body.”

Long Tao’s eyes sparkled. This was perfect. He could use the Qi monarch’s power to create a very powerful law formation. The energy supplied by a QI monarch would be way more than what his avatar could supply, which meant that he could even vie for more laws.

Unknown to the Keeper, a very dangerous plan was being formulated in Long Tao’s mind

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

Pill Valley-

“Martial Granduncle. I have a request.” Lu Ming bowed before the Qi Monarch.

“Speak boy.” The QI monarch was interested in what Lu Ming wanted to request.

“I am going to taking a great risk during the break-through. If I am successful in my effort, I might be able to reach the level of our ancestor.” The Qi monarch’s eyes instantly shot open when he heard this. The three QI emperors were amazed when they heard this too. This boy dared to say that he could reach the level of the ancestor.

“Even if you are talented, you are not allowed to blemish the name of our ancestor. His name can’t be allowed within jokes you formulate.”

“I am not joking. I am confident in being able to reach his level.”

“I have a new respect for you shamelessness boy. You picked up a very unique talent senior.” Teng family patriarch said sarcastically. Ti Shen had no reply to this statement. He was in awe of what Lu Ming had said. He knew of his character and understood Lu ming’s personality. He would never say something he was not confident in doing.

“What if I say, that I can? Not everybody is incapable like you.” Lu Ming spoke to the Teng patriarch in a despising manner. He then looked at the Qi Monarch and said.” I am 80% confident in achieving, but I want your help in doing that.”

“What can I help you with?”

“During my experiences in mum, I came across various inheritances of powerful cultivators. One of them was extremely unique, as the cultivator himself had obtained it from some ancient depository. It is a treasure which can be used while formulating law energy.”

The Qi Monarch was intrigued by the sudden information.” Can I see it?”

“I am sorry to reply that I am not capable enough of controlling it yet. What I want my grand-uncle’s help in is to control the equipment in a better way.”

“What can I do to help?”

“I want you to provide me with soul energy.” The four figures were amazed upon hearing Lu Ming’s words. Soul energy was the most difficult of the three categories of cultivation. Only a Qi Monarch was properly able to manifest and control it. Lu Ming wanted him to supply soul energy.

“With enough soul energy, I would be able to control the treasure to formulate a formation powerful enough to harnessing Heavenly laws power and ingest it into my body at an extremely fast pace while controlling the energy at the same time. I would help convert the energy into my body’s inherent power so that I can control the power of laws.”

“And that would help you to connect with five heavenly laws.”

“The only problem while connecting with so many laws is the backlash I would have to encounter while trying to connect with too many laws. It is the reason it is extremely difficult to connect with more than two heavenly laws in the first place. The artefact helps in negating the backlash, and controlling the energy more efficiently.”

“How confident are you?” The Qi Monarch’s tone was extremely calm. He was seriously considering the proposal.

“60%.” Lu Ming decided to speak truthfully.

The Qi Monarch was silent as if considering his proposal. He then looked at Lu Ming with a determined glance and spoke. ” I will help you. If could achieve the feat, it would be a huge blessing for the Pill valley. If you are unable to bear the burden, reduce the number of laws immediately. You are one of the most talented disciples of ours, and we can’t lose you.”

“I will keep that in mind.” Lu Ming was appreciating the Qi Monarch’s mindset.

“Enter the formation. You three will be controlling the supply of every type of energy that Lu Ming requires. I on the other hand will be supplying him with soul energy.” He immediately ordered a complete lockdown of the peak they were in.

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

In the inner courtyard of pill valley-

“Why are they locking down the peak?” one of the inner court disciples inquired.

“The valley master and two martial uncles along with the protector are helping the new guy in breaking through Qi King level.:”

“They attach too much importance to a puny Qi King.” One of ten top genius in the inner door spoke up. His name was Zhang Li.

“We never know the motives behind their actions. They are too powerful for us to understand as of now. I still feel some resentment about that new guy. Although he was talented to gain a partial inheritance of the valley founder, why are they acting so weirdly around him.” Another one of the top ten inner disciples, Li Ruong spoke up.

“I guess we will have to wait and see. I will await his presence in the inner door. We need to teach the newbie that he needs to respect his senior brothers.

Every single disciple of the top ten in the inner door was an advanced Qi King cultivator. How could they not be jealous of the importance attached to Lu Ming?

A huge conspiracy was underway. Meanwhile, Lu Ming had entered the formation and begun his breakthrough to the Qi King level. He first decided to formulate the formation with the help of the soul energy provided by the Qi monarch. He didn’t want to arouse any suspicion within the Qi Monarch’s mind. He could only use the formation to hide the multiple Heavenly law bases present within his body.

As soon as the formation was formulated, Lu Ming’s body began to glow and energy around him began to change. The objective this time was to complete the elemental laws first and then switch over to compound laws.

He began to connect with the fire elemental laws, which instantly sprang up to the earthen level. The four-figure were amazed that Lu Ming’s ability to connect with laws was so terrifying. Only the Qi Monarch was having a suspicious expression.

Lu Ming was indulged in his cultivation, entering the Heavenly law level and connecting to fire heavenly law.
