Chapter 425 - 425 Emperor's Force
425 Emperor’s Force
This time, however, there seemed to be an almost imperceptible shadow over the dragon king’s head. A halo, or perhaps, a crown?
Qin Huai was startled. This nearly invisible transparent crown was suspended over the dragon king’s head, pressing down like a heavy mountain, making it hard for him to breathe.
Suddenly, the voice of the emperor of Qingzhou rang out, breaking Qin Huai’s concentration. Qin Huai turned to look at the middle-aged man in front of him, his eyes wide with surprise. “Senior, didn’t you already…”
“Haha, I was just pulling your leg,” the emperor interrupted with a hearty laugh.
Qin Huai was at a loss. The emperor of Qingzhou certainly had an unconventional way of joking, even with a junior like him.
The emperor of Qingzhou, who had just evaluated the realm and strength of the younger generation, began to speak his mind. “Each era has its own unique talents. I respect the choices of this era and the laws of time.”
Qin Huai found the emperor’s words slightly cryptic. He barely understood his meaning and asked, “Are you implying that they are inadequate?”
“Their bodies are too frail! That kind of body can’t refine top-tier guardian spirit items. Powerful beasts, divine scrolls, mountains, and rivers…none could be refined. All would be destroyed in an explosion,” the emperor of Qingzhou ranted. “Why don’t they prioritize physical cultivation?!” Then, he abruptly fell silent.
Seeing the emperor’s expression, Qin Huai realized something and wisely kept quiet. If he was not mistaken, the emperor’s criticism had something to do with the so-called demons of the Dark Clan.
The emperor of Qingzhou regained his composure in an instant, resuming his playful demeanor. “Seven full patterns… Are you a monster?” He looked at Qin Huai in disbelief. “Even in my era, no one ever achieved seven full patterns…
“Why didn’t your bone shatter when two types of bone patterns overlapped on the same bone? How are you still able to use the power of the bone patterns normally?” The emperor of Qingzhou bombarded Qin Huai with questions.
“I’ve faced tens of thousands of life-and-death situations before succeeding,” Qin Huai replied gravely. He was not being dramatic. In his ‘memory’, he had died over ten thousand times in the pursuit of balancing the two types of bone patterns.
“What a monster,” the emperor of Qingzhou couldn’t help but express his admiration. “When I first comprehended the king’s force, I tested the transcendent comprehension of force that came with five full patterns. And you, you have seven full patterns. It’s like you were gifted the emperor’s force.”
The emperor of Qingzhou was at a loss for words. However, achieving seven full patterns was not necessarily easier than cultivating the emperor’s force.
“Could this be the emperor’s force?” Qin Huai exclaimed with delight. “But the power of this force seems to be a bit…”
“Your emperor’s force is not completely formed yet…” The emperor of Qingzhou spoke, a complex expression crossing his face. “Majestic and intimidating, filled with killing intent, it’s a force that allows one to rule a region, to become a king. The lands one can conquer become one’s territory, and those who can evolve into rulers become emperors.”
As if lost in his thoughts, the emperor continued, “If one can say the king’s force is about maximizing one’s killing power, then the emperor’s force is about creating a small world. The bronze realm is my emperor’s force.”
Looking at Qin Huai, the Emperor of Qingzhou said, “Here, my powers are multiplied, while all your powers, including your qi and blood, are suppressed by me. Even those with a higher cultivation level than me can’t defy the rules of my world! In this world, I am… Achoo!” The emperor of Qingzhou sneezed suddenly. “I feel like someone’s missing me…”
Qin Huai could only stare, taken aback. The next moment, the emperor of Qingzhou was surrounded by a green light that quickly rushed toward him.
Qin Huai’s heart pounded, his eyes glowing with white light, as a protective white light screen instantly flared up.
Bang!
The green light shattered, and Qin Huai’s white light quickly enveloped the emperor of Qingzhou.
Qin Huai looked at the Emperor, feeling as if this legendary figure had suddenly become insignificant.
“Forbidden technique, poison dragon shock!”
A burst of white light swiftly condensed on Qin Huai’s fist, and the speed at which it fired was staggering.
Bang!
The air in front of him exploded, creating an energy storm covering a radius of five meters. The energy winds kept whistling around, and Qin Huai stared in astonishment. His moves had been amplified to an unprecedented level in his own world.
“Come on! Hit me!” the emperor bellowed, throwing a punch at him.
Qin Huai didn’t dodge and brashly punched out, using his poison dragon shock. A flash of white light was seen before the emperor’s punch connected with Qin Huai’s face.
Bang!
Qin Huai’s ‘world’ instantly shattered.
Dong, dong, dong…
Qin Huai rolled on the ground, in a pitiful state.
“The second lesson for you,” the emperor lectured, “is that all restrictions and rules are useless against absolute strength. Don’t be arrogant and overconfident.”
Smirking smugly, the emperor stood with his hands on his waist, looking like a mischievous child who had just pulled off a prank on his friend.
“Thank you for your guidance, Senior!” Qin Huai’s eyes glowed with a white light. The light seemed to flow around his body and charge toward the emperor of Qingzhou.
He activated his dragon King form, causing his eyes to shine even more brightly and his black hair to turn silver-white. His hair also grew significantly longer.
Qin Huai’s back began to bulge, and the next second…
Bang!
A pair of gigantic silver-white dragon wings, over three meters long, sprouted from his back. His speed suddenly increased by several times, and he appeared in front of the emperor in a streak of silver light.
“Stop!” The emperor quickly reached out to block Qin Huai’s fist.
“What’s wrong?” Qin Huai asked.
“There are guests outside. Use them to practice and master your emperor’s force,” the emperor responded.
