316. Deterrent
One, two, three, four, five...
One after another, the Divine Abilities began to rge. However, it wasn't easy for these Abilities to have compatible philosophies. The fusion of Divine Abilities didn't necessarily an that the more you rge, the stronger it gets.
In many cases, the fusion of many Divine Abilities only slightly increased their power. After all, when Divine Abilities rge, it's the strongest trait of the ability that gets enhanced.
Often, rging just one or two Divine Abilities doesn't have much effect, only when a large number of them are combined does the power of the Divine Ability significantly increase.
Lin Fei used two types of Divine Abilities as a foundation to rge with others of compatible philosophies. However, the results of these rgers varied greatly.
One of the Divine Abilities had rged with thirteen others. While it hadn't reached the level of a Great Divine Ability, it was already very powerful. The other, in the sa amount of ti, had only rged with five and had only slightly increased in power.
Ti passed, and about an hour later, two entirely new Divine Abilities were born. In front of Lin Fei, two glows appeared, each representing a Divine Ability. Concurrently, voices echoed in Lin Fei's mind.
"Divine Ability Heaven-ending Saber wishes to join and beco the host's Divine Ability."
"Divine Ability Shadow-Speed Saber wishes to join and beco the host's Divine Ability."
The glow of the Heaven-ending Saber represented the rger of fifteen Divine Abilities, yet it was still a Lesser Divine Ability – albeit seemingly at its peak. As for the Shadow-Speed Saber, it had rged with eight Divine Abilities, also a Lesser Divine Ability but not at its peak.
The two Divine Abilities represented two different directions. The Heaven-ending Saber was all about brute force, incredibly dominating, while the Shadow-Speed Saber focused on speed and agility, making it very elusive.
Lin Fei wasn't entirely satisfied with either of them. Neither had reached the level of a Great Divine Ability, so how could he be content?
"However, Heaven-ending Saber does seem to have the potential to beco a Great Divine Ability. Perhaps by rging with one or two more Divine Abilities, it can evolve into a Great Divine Ability," he mused. "As for the Shadow-Speed Saber, it might also achieve Great Divine Ability status, but it would require many more Divine Abilities."
Lin Fei shook his head. He hadn't cultivated the Heaven-ending Saber yet unless it could evolve into a top-tier Great Divine Ability. But relying solely on the Saber Sovereign Sect's Divine Abilities certainly wouldn't suffice.
"Where can I find a large number of saber-related Divine Abilities?" Lin Fei murmured to himself.
The Heaven-ending Saber indeed had potential. But the fact that even after rging with fifteen Divine Abilities it still hadn't evolved into a Great Divine Ability showed how challenging achieving that status was. Even the founder of the Saber Sovereign Sect, with all his created Divine Abilities, only had Lesser Divine Abilities. He hadn't managed to create even a single Great Divine Ability.
"The Divine Abilities of the Xiao family are surely plentiful. And who proclaid that the saber path's divine skills cannot rge with others? As long as the philosophies are aligned, fusion is possible!"
Lin Fei's eyes sparkled with realization. He had soone fetch paper and ink and ticulously scribed the Heaven-ending Saber, which amalgamated fifteen unique divine abilities.
Silently, Lin Fei then secured the Heaven-ending Saber's manual close. The leader of the Saber Sovereign Sect held his tongue, not daring to object. Yet he hesitantly began, "Sovereign, the threat of the Wind-Thunder Sect..."
Lin Fei, of course, understood the leader's concerns.
"I shall personally visit the Wind-Thunder Sect. Henceforth, they shall pose no threat to the Saber Sovereign Sect. However, should the Saber Sovereign Sect not produce a Martial Sovereign in the future, I cannot guarantee it won't be threatened by other forces."
Lin Fei's intent was clear. He would only intervene once. After that, the Saber Sovereign Sect would be on its own.
"Rest assured, Sovereign. We dare not bother you in the future!"
The leader of the Saber Sovereign Sect understood. It is better to rely on oneself than on others. This ti, Lin Fei had assisted them through a crisis. But in the future, the sect must stand on its own two feet.
With a swift motion, Lin Fei departed without another word. Exiting the Saber Sovereign Sect, he soon found himself at the Wind-Thunder Sect. This sect was a mystical force where not far from the Saber Sovereign Sect. Once, a saber saint with perfect saber intent erged from the Saber Sovereign Sect, naturally, they occupied the most pri location.
The Wind-Thunder Sect's domain was significantly inferior in comparison. Thus, their aspirations to seize the Saber Sovereign Sect's domain. The current generation of Wind-Thunder Sect lacked a Golden Core True Person. Nevertheless, their potential was significant. There were many at the pinnacle of the Foundation Establishnt stage, and it was only a matter of ti before a Golden Core True Person would erge.
Swiftly, Lin Fei hovered above the entrance of the Wind-Thunder Sect. If he were to reveal his identity dallion, he could certainly deter the Wind-Thunder Sect. However, how long this deterrence would last remained uncertain. A more profound intimidation was necessary for the Wind-Thunder Sect, only then could he honor the assistance the founder of the Saber Sovereign Sect granted him.
With a thunderous rumble, a vast Life Wheel materialized behind Lin Fei. Three radiant layers glead atop it. A formidable pressure instantly enveloped the entire Wind-Thunder Sect.
"That... Is that a Martial Sovereign?"
"What a terrifying Martial Sovereign. Why has he co to our Wind-Thunder Sect?"
"When did our Wind-Thunder Sect offend such a formidable Martial Sovereign?"
Many disciples of the Wind-Thunder Sect looked up into the void, their hearts trembling in awe. That massive Life Wheel exerted overwhelming pressure on their very existence.
In response, several top Foundation Establishnt True Persons from the Wind-Thunder Sect erged. Gazing at Lin Fei hovering above, they stuttered with respect, "Greetings, Sovereign. May we ask why you have co to our Wind-Thunder Sect? Our sect is now under the Xiao family."
Clearly, the Wind-Thunder Sect was invoking the na of the Xiao family as a shield, trying to put pressure on Lin Fei.
"Xiao family..."
Without a word, Lin Fei tossed out the Xiao family's token. He then unleashed his Gravity Domain, and a crushing force settled upon the entire sect.
"Thud."
All the disciples of the Wind-Thunder Sect imdiately fell to their knees under the might of the Gravity Domain. This gravitational force was so imnse that it felt like they could be crushed to dust at any ti!
Even the top Foundation Establishnt True Persons were no exception. They couldn't even stand. And this was only Lin Fei using one percent of the true power of his Gravity Domain.
Recognizing the token, the Wind-Thunder Sect's True Persons realized Lin Fei's identity. He was the Martial Sovereign of the Xiao family!
"Sovereign, since you are the Martial Sovereign of the Xiao family, why are you making things difficult for our Wind-Thunder Sect?" A Wind-Thunder Sect elder managed to speak, resisting the intense gravitational pull.
Lin Fei didn't answer. Instead, he directed his gaze towards a towering peak of the Wind-Thunder Sect. With a re push of his Gravity Domain, the mountain crumbled.
"Boom!"
It was as if an unseen, overwhelming force wiped out the mountain's very existence. Such raw power left everyone in the Wind-Thunder Sect trembling in terror.
"If the Wind-Thunder Sect pressures the Saber Sovereign Sect again, it will share the fate of this mountain!"
Without waiting for a response, Lin Fei retracted his Gravity Domain and transford into a beam of light, disappearing into the horizon. He believed the Wind-Thunder Sect would know their place.
"When did the Saber Sovereign Sect gain the favor of such a fearso Martial Sovereign?"
"No matter. With such a terrifying Martial Sovereign protecting them, even if our Wind-Thunder Sect produces a Golden Core True Person, we should not provoke the Saber Sovereign Sect."
For a ti, everyone in the Wind-Thunder Sect felt a lingering fear. The mountain that had been effortlessly erased was a testant to the fact that the Sovereign could just as easily annihilate their entire sect if he so wished.
This was the true aning of deterrence.
