Clark, bring out your embodint! I want to see it!
Clark imdiately summoned it, and his master was utterly amazed.
Clark said:
· "Do you want to see its speed?"
Several swift punches instantly shot towards the master.
The master was amazed, thinking to himself:
· "So fast it’s hard to dodge! And as a teacher, I don’t want to be hit by my student!"
The master’s embodint suddenly erged, but this was its true form, unlike before! Its body was bizarre! It possessed a thousand arms! 500 arms on the left and right sides! A massive face, wearing a mask with three heads! Its hands resembled black shadows condensing from smoke! Its legs were also black, alongside a skirt covering its lower half!
Clark was truly terrified! They imdiately exchanged blows! The World embodint managed to keep up with the attacks! It suddenly received a kick from the master’s embodint that disrupted its balance! Then it took a powerful blow that sent both it and Clark flying away!
It quickly returned to Clark’s body, who spat out a lot of blood and said:
· "Does soone truly possess such power?!"
The master laughed and extended his hand to help Clark up:
· "In truth, that’s not the full power of my embodint!"
· "What are you saying?! I swear if that punch held even a slight intent to kill, it would have crushed my skull!"
· "Clark, there are still many secrets! They don’t call ’The Dreaming Spirit’ for no reason!"
· "Is there another na I can call you besides ’The Dreaming Spirit’?"
· "My real na is... Tai Fei!!!"
Clark was shocked as if plunged into boiling water! He stamred:
· "T...Tai Fei?! You know Ling Ochi, of course, right?! And you slept with his wife! Why?!"
· "Yes, it’s ! Honestly, Clark, I didn’t sleep with his wife to anger him or for love! I simply do what I want! I don’t care if I kill my children or loved ones! I truly don’t possess such attachnts! But I respect a few of them! My goal that night was to obtain an heir in order to..."
The master fell silent and walked away! Clark understood he didn’t want to discuss it further and remained silent. In Clark’s view, it didn’t harm him whether he knew or not; it was his privacy after all.
Clark followed him, began ascending a staircase, and they entered a room! It was imnsely spacious but resembled a jungle! Clark asked:
· "What is this place?"
· "As you know, we will train! For an unknown duration! Therefore, we will train in the Immortal Consciousness, so we don’t consu many days outside! Truthfully, Clark, I want to refine and strengthen your foundation in every inch of your body! But you are an ambitious man who wants to leave, you don’t want to be locked up with for decades to train! So, what’s better than the Immortal Consciousness? Isn’t that right?"
· "Yes, you’re correct!"
· "Good, Clark! As a start, you possess a powerful embodint and can stop ti! But do you have a combat style?"
· "No! What is a combat style?"
· "There are many skills and weapons besides combat styles!"
Suddenly, a massive red tiger with golden eyes and fiery rings around its neck appeared, interrupting the master:
· "Well! It seems practice is better than talk! Hahahaha! Watch closely, Clark! This technique will shock you greatly!"
"Soul King’s Quake Fist that Shakes the Heavens!"
BOOM!!!!
The master’s fist radiated a black aura and imnse black lightning! It crushed the tiger with a single terrifying blow!
The master spoke:
· "Good! This is the combat style I created, Clark! It also enhances refinent! Let tell you sothing useful, naly the refinent ranks:
1. Birth Layer
2. Soul Awakening Layer
3. King Layer
4. Enlightennt Layer
5. Void Manifestation Layer
6. Soul Birth Layer
7. Body-Soul Fusion Layer
8. Origin Return Layer
And finally, Rank 9: Immortal Layer! It’s the strongest layer in the human world, and the first stage of refinent in the Immortal World! Those of this rank are called The Forged or The Venerated in the mortal world!"
· "And what’s special about each layer?"
The master replied:
· "Alright! Let’s start with the Enlightennt Layer: Its possessors have sothing special, naly superhuman perception! They can sense everything around them, incoming and outgoing, within a distance of about one kiloter! It also helps them dodge attacks!
Those of the Void Manifestation Layer: Here begins the stage of new soul birth! But they can use it in a limited way! But Soul Birth Layer: Their soul manifests physically according to their combat style! But you’ve already reached that stage! You possess the foundation of soul refinent, but at the King Layer power level!
Here we reach Body-Soul Fusion: The soul rges with the user’s body! Also, let tell you sothing: The Path of the Soul seems best for you! Then you can embody a new embodint just by devouring souls! Just as I did!
Finally, Origin Return: We are in the mortal world, we draw power from the Earth! This makes refinent and evolution difficult and requires much ti and effort! But those of Origin Return draw their power from the Heavens! But only slightly, not greatly! Unlike those in the Immortal World, who draw all their power from both Heaven and Earth, as you surely know!
Origin Return enhances your power, allowing you to utilize the Heavens to make your attacks manifest! Origin Return has a condition: you must master a combat art and reach the ’Combat King’ stage in your combat art!
And let show you the manifestation of my power in the sky!"
The master instantly ascended into the sky! He declared in a resonant and terrifying voice:
· "The second move of the Soul King Fist: Empty Strikes!"
The sky’s color changed horrifically! Clark’s throat went dry as he watched in utter terror! Frightening fists erged from the sky! Coated in terrifying black Qi! The earth and everything in it quaked!
Clark looked in horror at the descending master and asked:
· "Is this just a small part of your power?! No wonder the Emperor of the Qin nation feared you!"
· "Of course he fears ! What you see now isn’t part of my true self! It’s rely a mask!"
Clark replied terrified:
· "What?! You an I provoked you and you have an overwhelming desire to kill ?!"
Tai Fei laughed, answering Clark:
· "Absolutely! No! I’ve always killed! If I dislike soone... you don’t know how many humans I’ve killed over all these years! But anger won’t make your teacher! Yet I expect my training will be harsh! So never expect any sympathy from !"
Clark nodded in agreent.
The master said:
· "Now we begin the first and most important lesson, Clark: What is the foundation of my combat style? Tell !"
· "It’s that dark energy, right?"
· "Yes! Exactly! That energy is the foundation, and its na is ’Dark Qi’! It won’t be hard for you to learn Dark Qi! Shadows exist everywhere! And one man possessed those shadows: Lucifer! And since you possess his will and the World embodint, it won’t be difficult for you!
A gift from : I will show you my true Dark Power! Be prepared, for your breath will vanish from the shock! You are the first person to see it! Even those in the Immortal World haven’t seen it, because they couldn’t even comprehend it...."
And then, Clark saw a sight unlike any other! It stole his gaze! A look of real terror! Any opponent or enemy seeing such a thing would slit their own throat in submission and surrender!
A height like towering mountains! Tai Fei’s shadow swelled and revealed its true embodint form! Even the World Planet hadn’t unleashed such imnse pressure! Such a colossal thing!
Then, the massive being rely waved its five hundred hands! A great black aura surged forth! Shadows! With a wave of its hand, the sky’s color changed to black! It erased light itself! Then it withdrew its manifestation and returned!
Clark asked, terrified and stamring:
· "Just! H..how can you possess such power?!"
The master suddenly knelt and spat blood!
Clark asked again:
· "What happened to you?!"
The master answered, coughing:
· "This power alone consus ! The human world truly restricts and binds my powers!"
---
A week later... Clark kept training diligently and earnestly! But he couldn’t coat his fist with shadows! He didn’t know the real secret to doing it! He kept working with determination and hardship, doing exercises and a thousand shadow drills with the master on his back, while drinking green tea!
Suddenly, the master shouted while sitting at one of the tables:
· "Clark! The tea, faster, you fool!"
Clark quickly ca and placed the tea in front of him on the table, asking his master:
· "Just! What’s the secret to using Dark Qi?!"
· "The secret is right in front of you! It’s natural... Didn’t you see those rabbits?! Even though they are in the light, shadows appear! Even within a person’s heart, there is darkness! If you can extract that power! As I told you before: You possess that dark energy, but you don’t realize it, for in the end, only those whose hearts are coated in darkness can use shadows!!...."
