Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 188, Immortal
Chapter 188: Chapter 188, Immortal
Chu Ming took a quick glance at the introduction about the Death Emperor and gasped in astonishment. Even though he knew that becoming the strongest among the Life and Death Realm Kings required extraordinary talent, he was still shocked at this moment.
The Death Emperor possesses a special constitution, the Nine Revolutions Undying Body. It is said that this constitution only appeared during the Ancient Era. Martial artists with this constitution will face nine life-and-death trials. Passing these trials will significantly increase their strength, but failure will lead to their demise.
According to the records, the Death Emperor has been invincible along his journey. At the age of two hundred, he opened the Life and Death Mysterious Gate and became a Life and Death Realm King. His strength is indeed formidable. At this moment, the Death Emperor has already undergone eight life-and-death trials, with only the last one remaining. Once he passes it, his Nine Revolutions Undying Body will reach Perfection. By then, he might have no rival across the entire continent!
Chu Ming’s footsteps moved, and he silently counted the number of stone steles. Observing these steles was a form of will purification for him because the stone steles of the Life and Death Realm Kings carried traces of their thoughts.
Even a tiny bit of these thoughts provided Chu Ming with substantial benefits.
"Is this... Emperor Ming?"
Chu Ming paused slightly and stopped before a stone stele. By now, he had already browsed most of the steles in the area, only a few remained unseen.
Emperor Ming also possesses a special constitution, the Great Brightness Body. His actions are bright and purifying, killing countless demons. When it comes to whom demons hate the most, it’s not the Emperor of Creation who towers above the past and present, nor the Emperor of Destruction who shines with endless light, but rather Emperor Ming, who has the Great Brightness Body.
Emperor Ming is a veteran among the Life and Death Realm Kings. When other kings had yet to become Life and Death Realm Kings, he was already one of the kings on the continent, making his strength unfathomable!
In fact, special constitutions greatly benefit martial arts. Martial artists with special constitutions can often fight above their level and are several times more likely to become Life and Death Realm Kings.
Therefore, among the two hundred stone steles, over half of the Life and Death Realm Kings possess special constitutions, though their strengths vary.
This also explains why the supreme master of Realm of Transcendence chose Bai Hanyan as a direct disciple when he discovered she had the Water Spirit Body. Although the Water Spirit Body is a low-level constitution, its probability of becoming a Life and Death Realm King is tens of times higher than for other martial artists. Once Bai Hanyan becomes a Life and Death Realm King, it would be her time to repay the favor.
Moreover, it is said that the Emperor of Creation initially had no special constitution or cultivation talent. He became a Life and Death Realm King because he accidentally obtained a cultivation technique that could plunder others’ special constitutions, turning him into a nightmare for all geniuses.
Even the Emperor of Creation was once hunted across the continent by martial artists, yet he survived every assault. Until he declared himself emperor, these assaults ended, emphasizing the importance of special constitutions to a martial artist.
However, there are exceptions, such as the Emperor of Destruction, who also became emperor.
Chu Ming’s footsteps lightly moved as he silently observed. In his mind, his martial will was gradually strengthening. This process was slow and somewhat surreal but undeniably real.
The enhancement of martial will aids martial artists in comprehending intent. Martial will is not the same as comprehension but is intricately related.
"These steles are shattered. Does it mean these Life and Death Realm Kings have died?"
Chu Ming secretly guessed. Scattered around the upright steles were fragments, with faint inscriptions visible.
"Hmm?"
Soon, Chu Ming arrived at the last two stone steles. Strangely, there were only two names on these steles, "Emperor of Creation" and "Emperor of Destruction." The remaining areas were obscured, as if covered by a white veil, making it impossible for Chu Ming to discern them clearly.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
The Slaughter Blood Sword in Chu Ming’s Sea of Souls began to vibrate again, its tip pointing towards one of the many steles. Chu Ming followed the direction of the sword’s tip, having already seen them all, so it was a familiar path.
Upon reaching a stone stele, he saw the words "Iron Sword King" clearly inscribed on it.
Chu Ming had already read the contents on the stele earlier. The Iron Sword King was a martial artist prodigy in the Sword Dao, becoming a Life and Death Realm King within three hundred years with a mundane body. Though he didn’t declare himself emperor, he was among the stronger ones among the Life and Death Realm Kings.
Chu Ming remembered vividly because the Iron Sword King had comprehended one of the Six Great Sword Intents, the Immortal Sword Intent.
With the emergence of the Immortal Sword Intent, time, space, and the world become immortal! ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Chu Ming quietly stared at the stone stele. The Slaughter Blood Sword in his mind continued to buzz as he fixed his gaze on the stele. The scene before him rapidly changed.
In his vision, the surrounding steles disappeared, replaced by layers of sword shadows. The stone stele seemed to emit a unique martial will, slowly unfolding before Chu Ming.
Martial will is ethereal, but at this moment, it gave Chu Ming a sense of eternal immortality, as if the heavens and the earth might perish, but the river of time will remain unchanged.
"Is this the essence of Iron Sword King’s Immortal Sword Intent?"
Chu Ming was slightly surprised. This could only be considered the essence of the Immortal Sword Intent, not its true essence, as Iron Sword King was only a Life and Death Realm King. The white-clothed middle-aged man Chu Ming saw in the Inheritance Divine Hall must have far exceeded Iron Sword King in strength.
Nevertheless, Iron Sword King’s Immortal Sword Intent was enough to guide Chu Ming in comprehending the true Immortal Sword Intent.
Without hesitation, Chu Ming immediately sat down cross-legged. Unlike the materialized Slaughter Sword Intent, Iron Sword King’s Immortal Sword Intent was too ethereal, requiring Chu Ming to immerse his entire mind.
In a space between heaven and earth, a massive iron sword suddenly appeared, rusted and inserted horizontally into the mountains, reaching the clouds. Wild shadows constantly shifted upon it, but its aura remained unchanging, eternal and immortal, connecting heaven and earth.
A miniature version of Chu Ming calmly sat under the iron sword, meticulously sensing the aura emanating from the sword while his understanding of the Immortal Sword Intent deepened.
