BXBX NOVEL Chapter 554 Useless Plot? [Gift Bonus Chapter]
-----
Tong Ruobing did not hesitate to use her Proving Dao Artifact to boost her Talisman Making Abilities and their overall strength. Finally, she took out a talisman from her space ring.
[Flesh Atomization Talisman]
A brightening white light came from the talisman and enveloped Mu Lei before he could react. Even the participants on the ground had to squint their eyes slightly as they gazed at the light.
Once the light abated, Mu Lei appeared with burn marks all over his body. However, he appeared intact overall, making Tong Ruobing frown. The Flesh Atomization Talisman was one of the masterpieces she created to fight against people with powerful fleshly bodies.
So, it should have atomized her opponent or, at the very least, severely injured him. However, he appeared to be only slightly injured. Tiny runes appeared in front of her eyes as she analyzed Mu Lei\'s body, and a look of realization dawned on her.
The Star Body of the Star Beast World is unique in that it cannot be instantly destroyed–at least in general. Any attacks that kill a Star Beast cultivator will instead decrease their size. In other words, if anyone wants to kill a cultivator in the Star Beast World, they must constantly kill and reduce their size until they are killed.
As such, the bigger the opponent, the more lives they have. So, only attacks that can instantly destroy their entire body can kill them, and her talisman did not achieve that effect.
Although Mu Lei\'s current body looked intact, his real body was now several times smaller.
Tong Ruobing quickly analyzed how to end this battle as she could tell the longer it continued, the more dangerous the situation would be for her. She did not have an attack that could instantly annihilate her opponent–at least, not until she finished her transformation of binding with the Origin Talisman.
\'So, the only solution is to use a method that annuls healing or regeneration.\'
Tong Ruobing waved her to create a talisman that manifested in the form of a spear. Then, with a flick of her hand, it flew incredibly fast toward Mu Lei.
At first, he did not care about such a measly attack and planned to ignore it while continuing his assault. However, he suddenly sensed grave danger and rapidly enacted a shield to protect him.
Unfortunately, the spear penetrated his defense and went straight for his heart, only stopping one inch before piercing it. Mu Lei had an ugly expression as he sensed a mysterious power on that spear.
He knew that power would ignore his body\'s ability and kill him, and there was nothing he could do about it.
"What power is this?"
Tong Ruobing smiled at him but did not explain, so Mu Lei contacted his Elder to ask.
\'The Duyi Realm. Is that a sign?\' he thought. As a person who follows a pure physical path without any genuine Dao of his own, Mu Lei knew he would have to make a choice after acquiring the [Heaven Will].
The first choice is to comprehend the Grand Dao Source of Power and prove the Dao using that method.
The second choice is to use his [Heaven Will] to go up a few layers in the True Power Dao Realm. If he chose that option, he could have the battle prowess of a Great Emperor of any class–even Eternal Emperor–based on his talent for fleshly body and how much he can make use of the [Heaven Will].
However, the downside is that he cannot open the gate with the [Heaven Will], and he will only have 1 Yuan Epoch of lifespan. As such, he only has this time to continue cultivating and opening the Gate of Power.
Mu Lei could also become a Dao Ancestor, and he would be an Insurgent. With the infinite lifespan, he could continue walking the path of True Power Dao until he opened that gate.
The third option is to find a way around the Star Beast System and Control Law by another method. Mu Lei had some ideas after interacting with other Heaven Chosens and learning about their system.
He cannot control law with his Soul since it is fused with his body. However, he could allow his body to create some energy/Qi to control laws. With this method, he might enter the Duyi Realm, and after acquiring the [Heaven Will], Heavenly Dao will consider him a duel Qi Refiner and Body Cultivators.
He can comprehend the Grand Dao Source of whatever laws he controls while also getting a slight boost in the True Power Dao Realm.
\'It seems like the third option is the best for me.\'
Mu Lei remembered his recent business partner–Wang Wei. He was also a dual Qi Refiner and Body Cultivator. Moreover, as the wonder of the Heavy Axe Physique, he has some advantages. The Law Seed inside his body should prevent him from walking the True Power Dao, but he was allowed an exception by Heavenly Dao. He still could not control laws with his body.
"Thank you, Young Lady Tong, for your benevolence. I owe you a great Karma."
"You are welcome," replied Tong Ruobing with a smile.
\'I could use this debt to my advantage,\' she thought. \'If I lose the Heaven Will Battle, I could ask Mu Lei to cut off my Karma for me to compete in the next generation. The only issue is whether he will prove the Dao in his world.\'
Tong Ruobing was in a good mood after making a backup plan for herself and acquiring a decent amount of Destiny. So she took Mu Lei\'s number 4 tokens and flew to the ground. She smiled and waved at Wang Wei, who ignored that shameless woman who stole his idea.
\'How did she enter the Duyi Realm?\' Li Jun asked with slight envy.
\'She turned her Divine Sea into a World of Talisman,\' Wang Wei replied. With his True Vision and his recent power growth, he could see many things previously hidden.
He could see many different runes inside her Divine Sea: [Qi Gathering Talisman]. [Qi Purification Talisman], [Qi Controlling Talisman].[Space Expanding Talisman], along with a bunch of others. Overall, her Divine Sea was unique.
\'I have to give Tong Ruobing some credit. She took the basic ideas I gave Wu Ming, developed them to their best, and even made them better.\'
After this fight, there were no worthwhile battles. A few people who never reached the top 10 in the previous trials challenged the seeded players, including Wang Wei. But they proved to be too weak. So, everyone returned to their mansion.
After returning to his mansion, Lian Shixing had two pictures before him: Chu Luo and Wang Wei.
\'One of these two should be able to help me with my plan, and I\'m leaning more toward the one from the Myriad Emperor World.\'
Based on the result of Soul and Comprehension, he thought Wang Wei was the best person to help him achieve his goal.
\'Let\'s wait to see the result of the Willpower Test. Then, I\'ll make a final decision.\'
In another mansion, Huo Fenghuang calmly walked into one of the rooms full of formation. A man was sitting in the middle with his eyes closed.
"How is it going?"
"What do you think? I\'ve told you many times your plan was useless and stupid. Even though we are technically from the same clan, the Qiyuan Emperor severed our bloodline connection long ago."
"The Curse Bloodline Innate Treasure did not work?" she asked.
"Without any connections, how could it work?"
Huo Fenghuang frowned after hearing this. After having all five noble beast bloodlines, her Heavenly Eye Talent evolved, and she could now see the level of a threat someone has to her.
When she laid her eyes on Wang Wei during the selection part of the trial, she felt an intense warning; it was so intense that she was almost overwhelmed by despair.
So, she began to prepare how to secretly take him down. Her original plan was to use the bloodline connection of the Wang Aristocratic Clan and the Dao Opening Sect\'s Wang Clan.
So, she enlisted the help of Wang Geming, the next heir of the Wang Aristocratic Clan. Huo Fenghuang hoped the latter used his bloodline connection to Wang Wei to curse, poison, or weaken him in any way.
Better yet, steal his power.
Honestly, she already knew her plan was pointless and stupid. However, she had to do something to at least relieve the pressure she felt every time she looked at him or when they interacted.
"Is there any way for this plan to work?"
"If you could get me his bloodline, no, his blood source, maybe," Wang Geming replied. He honestly did not want to help her and antagonize the other Wang Clan. Unfortunately, Huo Fenghuang\'s status was higher than his, and the council asked him to follow her orders.
The Wang Clan had three Great Emperors after the Null Era, but two mysteriously died right after proving the Dao. No one knew the reason. Or at least, he was not privy to this information. The Clan only had a decent status amidst the Ancient Aristocratic Clan because their founder was the Heaven Opening Emperor, the first Emperor of the Myriad Emperor World.
"Blood Source?" Huo Fenghuang said softly, her voice full of helplessness. She was probably one of the few people who knew what this monster was capable of.
If she planned things correctly, found a scenario where he did not fight seriously, and caught him off guard, she might get a few drops of blood. As for his source blood? Unless she could defeat him, there was no way to get her hands on something like that.
"I\'ll find another way," she said before walking to her room, left to her thoughts. Huo Fenghuang had two objectives in coming to this trial: to acquire the inheritance and see if she could use it to deceive her dragon bloodline into an Azure Dragon Bloodline, and secondly, to deal with Wang Wei.
Unfortunately, it appeared she would not succeed in any of these objectives.
\'There are many worlds available in this place. I should be able to find a way to purify or evolve my bloodline,\' she thought before beginning to plan her next step.
