Xue Ying was currently high up in the sky.
With him at the center, the area up to a hundred ters surrounding him was distorted, and the surface of his body was vaguely blurred by the protection of the Profound Laws. It felt as if within this space, his entire self had beco the sole overlord with everything revolving around him.
I never thought that by using Earth to sustain Water, Fire, and Wind, I would be able to grasp hold of the Embryonic Form of the True aning of Star, Xue Ying thought.
The True aning of Extre Piercing…
Had never been docunted as part of the nine different grades of True aning within the records passed down from the Deity World. On the other hand, the True aning of Star was actually ntioned in the records.
This True aning of Star was a grade two True aning within the nine grades of True aning in the Deity World!
A grade two True aning was spoken of only in legends. Its might was undisputably mysterious! Those who grasped hold of the True aning of Star were extrely terrifying characters. Their bodies could transform into Stars! And with this external defence, it would be akin to how Stars and the Earth were immovable! With just a movent of their limbs, it would be like a Star smashing over!
Furthermore, after gaining the bodily characteristics of a Star, their surroundings would be able to produce gravitational force! Those who grasped hold of the True aning of Star had the ability to affect the gravity of their surroundings during battle… and any ordinary Saint realm Transcendent would be afraid of entering this area for fear that their bodies would collapse. Their bones would be smashed into pieces from the gravitational force, and inevitably, they would die.
This was a grade two True aning with balance in terms of its defensive and offensive capabilities.
As for the Extre Piercing which Xue Ying grasped hold of, it was at the end of the offensive spectrum with an extrely powerful attacking power! Right now, however, he had comprehended only its embryonic form, and thus, its true might was not fully revealed.
In reality, there were so True anings like the True aning of Space that were extrely balanced in terms of offensive and defensive power amongst the grade two True anings.
An expert who grasped hold of the complete True aning of Space would be able to easily swim through any ordinary space, shadow space, spaces between different realms, and many other varieties. Teleportation and penetration through space was an easy task for them. They could even control space itself to toy with their opponents and kill them…
The True aning of Star was equally powerful!
It was also well-balanced.
Once the body beca a Star, it would be immovable like the Earth, and its offensive power would be even greater! Furthermore, the gravity around the body could be used to suppress the enemy.
In a battle, it would be akin to using a Star to crush the enemy from all fronts!
Even though it wasn’t an unpredictable might, this kind of direct suppression would still create extensive trouble for an enemy.
A grade two True aning, Xue Ying contemplated. Extre Piercing is a grade two True aning, and so is the True aning of Star. Right now, I have grasped hold of the embryonic forms of two different grade two True anings.
Since he had grasped hold of their embryonic forms, he could only continue down the paths and perfect it. Before long, he would be able to transform them into complete True anings.
Two different grade two True anings…
That was truly heaven-defying.
At the very least, there are many gaps in my spear techniques that are covered up by my comprehension. Xue Ying displayed his spear techniques. As the spear danced about, every single move brought with it a fierce might, equally powerful in both offensive and defensive strength.
Such a pity it’s not a grade one True aning. Xue Ying revealed a grin.
Indeed, he had this strand of wishful thinking.
Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind might really have a chance of forming a perfected grade one True aning! But what exactly would it entail? A grade one True aning appeared only in the legends of legends… and represented a perfect, top-tier True aning. In every aspect, regardless of whether it was the True aning of Illusions, Strength, Agility, the Realms or the Soul, Life or Death… a grade one True aning would be perfect in all areas.
For instance, a man who grasped the True aning of Extre Piercing… even though he could not control ti, when faced with a True aning that could control ti, the threat it posed would be drastically reduced. After all, his figure would be like a Point of Extremity; against Ti Acceleration, Ti Stop… they would have a much reduced effect against just a single Point of Extremity.
Thus, all experts who could control a grade one True aning were extrely terrifying people.
And as the True aning beca further refined, it would beco even more enigmatic and mysterious.
The True aning of Star had heaven-defying defensive and offensive power, as well as a domain of gravity… yet it was marked as only a grade two True aning. Nonetheless, it was an extrely powerful True aning.
This did not an that fusing more Profound Mysteries would result in greater formidability, however, as it could create an effect similar to adding details to a masterpiece and destroying the entire art piece! He had spent a long ti contemplating how to cover up the weaknesses inherent in his Water, Fire, and Wind. Fortunately, he had a sudden revelation when he saw the northern Snowy Plains that served as an inspiration for him, resulting in an unhesitant decision to comprehend the Profound Mysteries of Earth!
A Grade one True aning isn’t that easy to comprehend. On the contrary, Xue Ying did not feel that disappointed in himself. Instead, he was relatively happy.
A grade one True aning…
Was only a dream for him!
He set it as a side-goal, hoping to achieve it in his dreams. In reality, it would be normal for him to be unable to achieve this goal. That was because comprehending a grade one True aning … was just a legend, even in the Deity World or the Dark Abyss!
If he achieved it, then that would be a heaven-shaking surprise!
For now, he felt satisfied comprehending the embryonic form of the True aning of Star. After all, the Extre Piercing had been too skewed in terms of offense. Even though it gave him a terrifying attack power, it left too many gaps and weaknesses in other areas, making it easier for his enemy to target and restrain him using those weaknesses. With the True aning of Star, he felt that these areas of weakness had finally been covered without any obvious and revealing gaps.
Hu. Controlling the force, Xue Ying began to reabsorb the energy, and with him at the center, the hundred ter radius void started dissipating.
Snow continued to fall from the sky.
The piece of cliff he had previously been standing on, however, had disappeared. Walking on the air, Xue Ying headed towards the distant Jing Qiu who was currently looking at him.
"Disciple Brother Xue Ying, seeing how good your mood is, I bet you must have achieved sothing good?" Jing Qiu felt excited for him.
"Mn." Xue Ying nodded.
"Looking at that previous void sphere, it seed really terrifying. I myself felt as if I would die the mont I entered!" Jing Qiu exclaid in admiration.
"There’s still a long way to go. That’s rely the embryonic form of a True aning," Xue Ying replied.
When a True aning was still at the stage of an embryonic form, it was extrely weak.
The gravity domain rely encompassed an area of a hundred ters! And its power was very weak. Any peak stage Sky realm Transcendent would die the mont they stepped into the domain! The gravity would imdiately affect every single part of the body, even the organs and viscera as well as the brain. Thus, for anyone below the peak stage of Sky realm, the inner part of their brain would imdiately be distorted and turned into paste.
For his gravity domain to instantly kill a peak stage Saint realm Transcendent, however, he would have to wait until he could control the complete True aning.
"Let’s go. We should head back." Xue Ying looked at the colour of the sky. "It’s going to be ti for dinner soon."
"In the afternoon, Qing Shi had co over to ask you to co down for lunch. Fortunately, I asked him not to wait. If I didn’t, he would have waited until the sky darkened." Jing Qiu laughed.
"Qing Shi…" Xue Ying nodded lightly.
When he was young, he had loved his brother too dearly.
Even though his brother started changing after seeing him fall into the Black Wind Abyss, this personality of his had already been imbued deeply and would be difficult to change. In his opinion… even though his brother seed to be quite diligent and considered a genius amongst mortals, he was missing a sort of single-mindedness from his experiences—a single-mindedness that would allow him to forgo all mortal matters and focus with his entire heart and soul on cultivating.
Let’s forget about it. Even though I reminded him many tis, cultivating is ultimately a path no one can help with. I protected him too much when I was young, Xue Ying thought. If given another chance, he would still not be willing to treat his little brother too strictly.
Xue Ying and Jing Qiu walked side by side to the Snowrock Castle.
The two of them left behind an unbroken trail of footprints on the snow.
This day seed ordinary.
Yet in reality, the existence who grasped hold of two different embryonic forms of grade two True anings had erged.
******
The days passed by.
The Transcendents of the Xia Clan tried their hardest in searching for demons, wanting to kill them to satiate their thirst.
Yet all of the demons had long hidden themselves from the World of the Xia Clan, causing a ti of peace.
Year 9665, November.
The waves smashed against the cliff. On one of the solitary mountains by the side of the cliff, there was an extrely desolate castle. Inside the castle, there were many guards patrolling the grounds. This location was the ho of a powerful Demigod belonging to the Xia Clan.
Before the invasion of demons, most Demigods spent their ti cultivating with the hopes of becoming Deities. Thus, it was not unusual for them to find a quiet and desolate place to concentrate on cultivating. Cultivating beside the sea was quite an ordinary matter for them.
Chi chi chi~
Within the castle, within a secret hall, there were two large, black oil lamps emitting the chi chi chi sound. The oil inside the lamps was glowing red. And yet, when it was burned, a green-coloured fla emanated from it. A mild and strange sll enveloped the entire hall.
A figure stood there. His entire body was enveloped by a black fog, making it hard for anyone to clearly see his appearance.
In front of him, there was a crystal ball floating mid-air.
Above the crystal ball, there were five different images. These pictures contained terrifying demons of different appearances. There was an icy-blue, big and tall demon, a purple-armored, thin and small demon, an enchanting, crimson-scaled female demon, a demon with a lofty body figure…
"Five Generals," said the figure enveloped in black fog.
