High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 668

Chapter 668: Chapter 363 Enlighten! Mysteries of the Law

Only after colliding twice in combat, the strength that Li Yuan revealed had already far surpassed the imaginations of the three Demigods from the Myriad Demons Civilization.

Domain, capable of resisting the impact of the Origin Power Array.

Attack, able to clash with the arrows of Sang Qiu’s Origin Power Dharma Body’s Divine Bow without falling short, and Li Yuan’s body could easily withstand such impacts.

This kind of strength, even for a Flying Heaven Warrior, clearly belonged to a powerful Demigod.

“He’s too monstrous.”

“His Spear Technique cultivation, it should have reached the Semi-Divine Middle Rank,” Sang Qiu urgently transmitted, “But his power is even stronger, feels to me like it could be comparable to a Demigod, his Origin Power likely has been cultivated to level 37, or even level 37.9.”

Level 37.9?

Demigod Pu Yang and Suhaer felt a chill in their hearts, what kind of monstrous genius was this? How could his Origin Power be cultivated so quickly?

In theory, even if the higher-ups of the Seven Star Civilization sanctioned treasures to aid cultivation…

It shouldn’t have broken through so quickly in such a short time.

“Sang Qiu, keep attacking.” Demigod Pu Yang gritted his teeth, “Suhaer, we must go all out, Li Yuan is too great a threat.”

“They say Fang Hai of the Seven Star Civilization is formidable, but how long has this Li Yuan been cultivating? His strength, I estimate it’s almost catching up to Fang Hai before his breakthrough.”

“If we let him continue to grow, we can forget about ever returning to our homeland.” Demigod Pu Yang urgently transmitted.

Suhaer didn’t speak again, but his actions were clear enough, controlling his Dharma Body, he dashed across layers of dark clouds, charging towards Li Yuan in the center of the Origin Power Array.

Boom!

Demigod Pu Yang also mobilized the power of the Origin Power Array, gathering it into a Dharma Body and charged towards Li Yuan.

The three Demigods finally erupted simultaneously.

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh! Whoosh!” Sang Qiu’s Origin Power Dharma Body stood in the distance, the Divine Bow bent, arrows like flowing water, with terrifying might, attacking Li Yuan time after time.

“Clang! Clang! Clang!” Li Yuan, holding the Divine Spear, easily blocked those arrows, and even by using his superior movement technique, directly dodged several arrows.

Attacking from a distance indeed keeps one safe.

But the downside is that the farther the distance, the harder it is to control, and flexibility often decreases as well.

“Li Yuan, die!”

Demigod Pu Yang’s Origin Power Dharma Body charged in as well, his Dharma Body towering, surrounded by dark clouds, with a momentum that pierced the heavens, he directly entered the range of Li Yuan’s Domain, holding a giant Combat Saber, and slashed towards Li Yuan.

Whoosh!

A terrifying arc of saber light swept across the vast sky, where it passed, the surging earthy yellow currents were instantly split open… this might, was much more terrifying than the arrows of Demigod Sang Qiu.

Even though Li Yuan’s Domain burst forth with all its might, it still couldn’t completely suppress it.

“Go!” Li Yuan’s figure flashed, the Black Chen Spear suddenly thrust forward, like a gust of wind, the spear tip directly grazed past the back of Demigod Pu Yang’s Combat Saber.

This was not a head-on clash, but a lateral collision.

With one collision, the Combat Saber was directly deflected, and then, Li Yuan’s figure flickered, easily dodging this terrifyingly mighty saber.

“How did he block it?” Demigod Pu Yang was shocked.

“What a heavy saber.”

“This spear of mine, it can’t completely unravel his Sword Technique? His Sword Technique cultivation is on the same level as mine, already reaching the Seventh Stage,” Li Yuan also immediately judged, “This bald brute, has he stepped into the Threshold of the Law of Earth? He’s indeed a lot more formidable than that archer.”

In a head-to-head clash, Li Yuan felt that his Spear Technique might was inferior to his opponent.

However, purely in terms of maneuvers’ agility, Li Yuan surpassed his opponent.

In such a clash at the Demigod level, Li Yuan wasn’t seeking to win over his opponent at the moment, just to hold him off was enough.

Demigods Liu Bing and General Mu had already responded.

It would take General Mu over an hour to arrive, probably too late… but Liu Bing, bursting forth at full speed, could arrive in just six minutes.

“Kill!”

Demigod Pu Yang roared furiously, and suddenly another slash of saber light emerged from the void, furiously slashing towards Li Yuan.

This saber strike was swift and ferocious.

“Roar~”

Nine Yellow Dragons roared, followed by another bizarre and unpredictable thrust of the spear, directly grazing the blade of the saber from the side, seemingly perilous but cunningly shifting the direction of Demigod Pu Yang’s saber once again.

“How is this possible?”

“Is his Spear Technique so agile?” Demigod Pu Yang’s heart was anxious, the more he fought with Li Yuan, the more he understood about him, and the less courage he had in his heart.

“Clang! Boom! Boom!” The lightning-fast exchanges between the two, even with Demigod Pu Yang’s fierce attacks and the assistance of Demigod Sang Qiu’s arrows, their offensive might was definitely ferocious.

Having the absolute upper hand, yet they simply couldn’t take down Li Yuan.

Li Yuan’s Spear Technique was too mysterious, too unfathomable.

“The ‘Boundary Cloud Spear,’ truly deserving as the most suitable Spear Technique legacy for me, found among the many Spear Technique legacies left by Elder Qiu,” Li Yuan felt incredibly exhilarated.

You see, Elder Qiu Bingzun left Li Yuan many legacy teachings, with hundreds of sets at the True God level, and even nearly a dozen at the Heavenly Divine level… and ultimately Li Yuan chose the “Boundary Cloud Spear.”

Why? Because this Spear Technique legacy was too suitable for Li Yuan.

The first six techniques, perfectly merging the Mystery of Earth and Wind Laws, coincidentally aligned with the wind direction Li Yuan was studying.

The first technique ‘Piercing Cloud,’ is the foundation of the nine techniques, emphasizing agility and variability in absolute control.

The Law of Earth represents absolute control, and the Law of Wind represents agility and variability.

Together, combined with Li Yuan’s Domain Star Technique, it was a perfect match.

Over a year ago, when Li Yuan first learned this technique, he wasn’t quite skilled at it, but after such a long period of meticulous research, he had already comprehended the first technique to its extremes.

The nine techniques of the “Boundary Cloud Spear,” representing the nine stages of the True Intent Law, each technique is versatile and even includes the use of movement techniques, though the focus differs slightly.

The first technique ‘Piercing Cloud,’ is about agility in control, not very adept in offensive aspects, but it is most suitable for defense and group combat, which is also why Li Yuan was not afraid of group attacks.

“Battle and slaughter indeed result in rapid progression,” Li Yuan remarked as he gained experience from clashing with two demigods.

Especially the Demigod Pu Yang, whose Sword Technique was domineering and fierce, embodying an unstoppable momentum.

“My Spear Technique is even more mystical than his Sword Technique.”

“However, in terms of the Earth Vein, I am inferior to him; this individual has stepped into the Threshold of the Law of Earth, he must be the ‘Pu Yang’ mentioned in the intelligence,” Li Yuan sensed the mystery in the opponent’s Sword Technique and felt stirred inside.

In the past year, Li Yuan had only occasionally sparred with Liu Bing; most of his time was spent in solitary meditation!

Cultivation required meditation and contemplation, as well as actual combat for tempering.

Both were indispensable.

…

“Seize him!” Suhaer’s Origin Power Dharma Body finally approached, wrapped in numerous silver chains which penetrated into the scope of Heaven and Earth, overwhelming and aiming to completely bind Li Yuan.

But Li Yuan, despite the God Locks rushing towards him, merely continued to engage with Demigod Pu Yang as if unaware of them.

“Humph, you don’t dodge facing my Void God Lock?” Suhaer sneered, “This Divine Artifact of mine, albeit faintly integrated with the Origin Power Array, has extraordinary might; once you are trapped, even a true Demigod would struggle to escape.”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—six silver God Locks swooped down, attempting to suppress Li Yuan.

These God Locks were exceedingly agile.

Yet the moment they were about to touch Li Yuan, he who stood firm in the void, suddenly split into nine, like a phantom, instantly dodging Suhaer’s all-out strike.

He also avoided the coordinated attack of Demigods Pu Yang and Sang Qiu.

“Your chains are too slow,” the nine Li Yuans spoke simultaneously.

Seventh Layer Star Technique—Nine Shadows Clone.

“This easily, you dodged my Divine Artifact’s attack?” Suhaer found it hard to believe, “Even with Shadow Clones, it shouldn’t be so easy!”

Had Li Yuan struck with a weapon and then blocked the entwining chains, he could have accepted it.

But to dodge everything with a mere flash?

What kind of control was this?

“Not right!” Demigod Pu Yang’s Origin Power Dharma Body suddenly roared, eyes filled with terror, “Something’s wrong!”

He had been clashing with Li Yuan and suddenly perceived a rapid change in the domain’s might.

Strands of earthy yellow airflow, their might surging.

Within the domain, the previously unkillable nine Yellow Dragons were also growing stronger.

This was bad!

“It’s the Law of Earth! He has stepped into the Threshold of the Law of Earth, retreat!” Demigod Pu Yang urgently conveyed, “Merging with the True Meaning of Wind, his strength must be nearing the Semi-Divine Peak.”

Boom!

Demigod Pu Yang was the first to sense the crisis and tried to make his Origin Power Dharma Body flee.

The Origin Power Dharma Body was carrying Divine Artifacts.

“What? Nearing Semi-Divine Peak strength?” Suhaer was also startled; the disparity in strength among demigods was quite apparent.

During the previous clash, the strength Li Yuan demonstrated was merely at level 42, mostly just stronger self-preservation abilities.

How could he suddenly be nearing the Semi-Divine Peak?

“Pu Yang, I must thank you.”

“Without your Sword Technique to inspire me, I might have needed more time before stepping into the Threshold of the Law of Earth,” Li Yuan spoke in a deep voice.

Before the crisis on Lantie Star erupted, Li Yuan’s comprehension of the True Meaning of Earth had reached the Sixth Stage limit, ready to step into the Threshold of the Law of Earth at any moment.

First, twenty days of constant Slaughter, which continuously stirred Li Yuan’s heart as if he was undergoing repeated purifications, becoming ever more pure.

The key, however, was today, starting with observing the Origin Power Array and finally clashing with Pu Yang, the Earth System Demigod.

At last, he made this step.

Origin Power breakthrough, cultivation of Star Techniques required a lot of time, not achievable overnight… but the breakthrough in Law Comprehension was accomplished in one go.

“Let’s leave no one behind.” The nine Li Yuans simultaneously moved, lightning-fast as they closed in on Suhaer’s Origin Power Dharma Body.

“Boom rumble~~” The might of ‘Heaven and Earth River,’ which covered a ten-kilometer range, fully erupted with the domain enhancing the nine Yellow Dragons, their might roaring to new heights, each of them ascending to the level of a Demigod.

Like nine level 40 Demigods striking, they howled as they attacked Suhaer.

“Whoosh!” “Whoosh!” “Whoosh!” Nine dazzling Spear Lights also simultaneously blossomed, engulfing Suhaer from all directions, containing Li Yuan’s genuine Spear Technique attack.

As the Spear Light swept across, its formidable might was simply unimaginable, tearing open the void like refined stars, immediately shredding it.

Boundary Cloud Spear, Second Form—Splitting Star!

Li Yuan had continually studied the second form of Boundary Cloud Spear but had yet to master it; however, at the moment he entered the Threshold of the Law of Earth, filled with a murderous intent, he naturally executed it.

While the first form ‘Piercing Cloud’ was oriented towards agile Defense, the second form ‘Splitting Star’ was sheer aggressive attack, aiming for two characters: ‘fierce ferocity.’

“This spear?” Demigod Pu Yang was terrified.

He felt the terrifying might contained in this spear; he wanted to save Suhaer’s Dharma Body, but under the suppression of the Heaven and Earth River Domain, he was simply too slow.

“This is bad,” Demigod Sang Qiu was even more anxious, fully manipulating the Origin Power Dharma Body, shooting out a dazzling arrow hoping to restrain Li Yuan.

“Boom~”

The arrow, traveling through the earth-colored airflow, lost its might sharply, eventually striking those Spear Lights, but only managed to shatter three; it hardly made any difference.

“Boom!”

Six Spear Lights, nine Yellow Dragons howled, fifteen strikes simultaneously bombarding Suhaer’s Origin Power Dharma Body, which disintegrated layer by layer, directly annihilated in an instant.

In a single confrontation.

A Demigod’s Dharma Body, refined by Divine Artifacts and Origin Power Array, was directly obliterated.

This sight deeply shocked the three demigods.
