Chapter 668: Ancient Star City
“Heaven class high-tier martial arts require a high demand on the true spirit. In normal situations, only true spirits at the Law Phase Realm are able to utilize a heaven class high-tier martial art to the extreme. Otherwise, even if you are able to comprehend heaven class high-tier martial arts, you will only be able to a power that is only a few times stronger than heaven class mid-tier martial arts.”
Along the way, Yan Qingwu was telling Li Fuchen about the basic knowledge on the martial dao.
“No wonder.” Li Fuchen nodded.
Yan Qingwu’s saber art was definitely a heaven class high-tier saber art. In Li Fuchen’s opinion, the power of a heaven class high-tier martial art should be five times or even ten times stronger than heaven class mid-tier martial arts. It was very obvious that Yan Qingwu’s saber art didn’t have that kind of power.
“Be it cultivation techniques, martial arts, armors, or weapons, after reaching the heaven class, each tier would have an extremely huge gap. This is also why the strength difference between Law Phase Realm emperors are so drastic. Normally, a Law Phase Realm emperor who cultivated a heaven class low-tier cultivation technique and martial art could only be considered regular emperors. No matter how high their cultivation level is, they will still be at the bottom. Of course, without better cultivation techniques and martial arts, it is hard for them to reach a higher level too. The low levels of Law Phase Realm would be their fate.”
“Subsequently, it will be the Law Phase Realm emperors who cultivated the heaven class low-tier cultivation techniques and heaven class mid-tier martial arts. This type of emperors are most common and they are several times stronger than the regular emperors that were mentioned earlier. Even if they didn’t have any fated opportunities, as long as they cultivated diligently, they will have the chance to advance to the mid levels of Law Phase Realm.”
“Afterwards, it would be the peak-class emperors who cultivated heaven class mid-tier cultivation techniques and martial arts. This type of emperors would normally be standing at the pinnacle of Law Phase Realm. It will be hard even for great emperors to kill them. After all, their qi isn’t weaker than great emperors, only their attack methods are a little inferior. If they truly desired to escape, it is still possible.”
“Finally, the great emperors. In order to become a great emperor, heaven class mid-tier cultivation techniques and heaven class high-tier martial arts are the standard. There will not be any upper limits. You have also seen the Blue Sun Emperor’s power in the Anger Ax Abyss. Regular emperors couldn’t possibly contest. Even through thousands of ten thousand miles, the great emperor could also deal fatal damage to the enemies.”
“As for half saints, they are already considered outside the Law Phase Realm category. With a transition in bloodlines, they are in a realm that is between the emperors and the saints. They have strength so powerful that it wouldn’t be exaggerating to call them preparatory saints.”
“I can see that you already comprehended a heaven class mid-tier martial art and even self-created some heaven class mid-tier sword moves. But if you wish to create heaven class high-tier sword moves, it isn’t enough to just rely on perception. You have to roam the world and understand how the laws are operated and feel the qi presence of the great dao of heaven and earth.”
Yan Qingwu gradually believed that Li Fuchen wasn’t a reincarnator as it was hard to fake a person’s experiences, unless Li Fuchen was intentionally hiding it. Therefore, she didn’t mind telling Li Fuchen the things she knew.
Li Fuchen nodded. The level difference in the Law Phase Realm was ridiculously huge.
The Blue Sun Emperor was in the Anger Ax Abyss back then and he experienced ax dao law pressure that was stronger than what the duo experienced. Apart from using the teleportation board to escape, there weren’t any other methods. Moreover, they didn’t even meet the Blue Sun Emperor in person yet.
As for heaven class high-tier martial arts, Yan Qingwu’s explanation was indeed true.
Li Fuchen who had created heaven class mid-tier sword moves had a faint feeling that it was impossible to create heaven class high-tier martial arts just by perception.
All things in the world were constant. It was impossible for him to create heaven class high-tier martial arts from nothing. In order to create heaven class high-tier martial arts, he would need to use his body’s foundation to exchange for it. Foundation was something that had to be accumulated and required experiences.
…
On the ocean, the duo aimlessly travel around.
On this day…
“Do you feel anything? It seems like we are enveloped by invisible energy.” Yan Qingwu frowned.
Li Fuchen said, “It should be an array power.”
An array was actually an imitation of nature. With guidance, it formed into unique phenomenons.
The powerful array was like a world by itself.
The duo reckoned that this array that enveloped this sea region was at least a quasi-class 9 array. If it was a class 8 array, the duo would have detected it easily.
Rumble!
There was a tsunami-like sound as a Four-Clawed Blue Whale that was over a hundred miles in size had burst out of water and soared into the sky.
Before this, the duo didn’t even detect the Four-Clawed Blue Whale approaching.
It wasn’t because the Four-Clawed Blue Whale was powerful, it was because the array power had dulled their senses.
The Four-Clawed Blue Whale didn’t attack the duo. Its massive demonic beast body shrunk rapidly and finally transformed into a blue-haired middle-aged man.
“You two are rather lucky. This place is within the Ancient Star City’s domain and killing is forbidden.”
After speaking, the Four-Clawed Blue Whale flew off with rapid speed and disregarded them.
“Ancient Star City!” Yan Qingwu suddenly thought of something.
“What is Ancient Star City?” Li Fuchen asked.
Yan Qingwu replied, “In the Deep Blue Plane, there is a massive merchant guild and it is called the Ancient Star Merchant Guild. I heard that the Ancient Star Merchant Guild established many cities on the ocean. These cities are specially meant for trading with the demonic beast race. Of course, it is also to provide a cultivating and resting place for human experts that are traveling. If I didn’t guess it wrongly, this Ancient Star City is a city established by the Ancient Star Merchant Guild.”
“Are we able to return to a human continent after passing through the Ancient Star City?” Li Fuchen continued to ask.
Yan Qingwu shook her head, “I don’t know about that either.”
Caw!
There was a sharp caw that shattered the sea water. From far away, there was a two-headed bird that was dozens of miles in size that flew over. Just like the Four-Clawed Blue Whale, when the two-headed bird entered the domain of the Ancient Star City, it immediately transformed into the human form but with two heads.
“I really want to eat the two of you!” The two-headed bird licked its lips and flew ahead after a flas.
“Let’s go and take a look too.” Li Fuchen was very curious about the Ancient Star City.
“Alright.”
Yan Qingwu had never visited a city in the middle of the ocean too and it was a great opportunity.
…
The Ancient Star City was established on an island.
The island wasn’t big and it was around 10,000 miles in perimeter. Without any protection, this island would have been destroyed by waves or sea beasts within a few years.
The Ancient Star City didn’t have any city walls. When looking from afar, the buildings on the island formed an undulating silhouette. There were places where there were more condensed buildings and there were places with lesser buildings. There were also places that were enveloped in mist and it was faintly visible.
No one interrupted them as they landed on the island.
“There are so many demonic beast rulers.”
The duo could immediately differentiate which were demonic beasts and who were humans.
Of course, there weren’t plenty of humans here. After walking for a segment of the road, there were only one or two humans among a hundred individuals. Furthermore, the humans seemed like the members of the Ancient Star City and were constantly busy.
Apart from the demonic beast kings and rulers, the duo encountered plenty of demon kings and rulers.
The demons were considered the dictators among the same tier.
Even the weakest demon king would have the strength of a human half-emperor.
The weakest demon ruler would have the strength of a peak-class emperor.
Let alone regular Law Phase Realm emperors, even if great emperors encountered demon rulers, they would also be apprehensive and wouldn’t dare to provoke the demon rulers.
