Beast Taming: Invincible Breeder-Chapter 423 - 408: The Terror of Infinite Resurrection
Li Shiji left Fertile Island and went to find King Jin.
If the battle occurred on Fertile Island, the aftermath would be enough to destroy it hundreds of times, so Li Shiji chose to leave Fertile Island and shift the battlefield elsewhere.
Furthermore, since a battle was destined to happen, why shouldn’t he fire the first shot and take the initiative?
Strike first to gain the advantage, delay and suffer the consequences.
Before leaving, Li Shiji also notified Li Cunxu to clean up the aftermath.
The Law of the Aluminum King was not revealed, but the Law of the Aluminum Dragon was.
Intermediate · Law of Metal — Aluminum
The power of law is divided into four stages: Low, Intermediate, High, and Peak.
Low — King.
Intermediate — Venerable King.
High — Sovereign.
Peak — Emperor.
During the High stage of the law, the Power of Law evolves the law skills into Divine Power.
Divine Power: Strong power, low Spiritual Energy consumption, can be cast instantly.
During the Peak law stage, the Power of Law evolves Divine Power into Great Divine Power.
Li Cunxu wasn’t interested in this Intermediate Aluminum Law, as it was too weak among the many laws; if put on the market, barely anyone would buy it. Even if it could be sold, it would only fetch the price of a Low-level Law, which might not even be worth selling.
The best prize among the spoils was actually the body of the Aluminum Dragon. Burying the body of the Venerable King-level Aluminum Dragon in the ground would soon transform it into a large vein of Aluminum Dragon ore. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
A vein of Aluminum Dragon ore yields Dragon-marked Aluminum. This ore vein originates from a Venerable King-level Aluminum Dragon, producing Dragon-marked Aluminum as Venerable King-level material that is quite easy to shape. If used to make Mechanical Wall Bricks for the Mechanical Great Wall, the production speed is incredibly fast.
The Mechanical Wall Bricks of the Mechanical Great Wall are not picky about the materials used. Any kind of metal material can be made into Mechanical Wall Bricks. However, the performance of the bricks varies with different metal types; the higher the metal’s strength, the more attack damage the bricks can withstand.
...
King Jin had a foul expression on his face, utterly displeased. He had originally anticipated that it would take only five years to purge the Pure White power within his body, yet five years had passed, and there remained a trace of Pure White power still not eradicated.
King Jin instructed the maid serving tea, "Send a message to the Aluminum King, asking him to wait another ten days."
"Yes."
The voice of the maid startled King Jin, as it sounded remarkably like Li Shiji’s. Turning instantly, he saw the maid’s eyes transform into two black Demon Lotuses.
The maid became a Demon Lotus, from which Li Shiji emerged.
Suicide Spirit Sword.
King Jin hurriedly summoned King Jin’s Sword to block the strike.
"Li Shiji, I wasn’t even looking for you, yet you dare come for me? You truly think I cannot kill you?"
Li Shiji rapidly aged and died, while in Prince Jin’s Mansion, others’ eyes turned into Demon Lotus Eyes, launching Suicide Spirit Swords toward King Jin.
Several Suicide Spirit Swords surged through Prince Jin’s Mansion, turning the once majestic and elegant estate into a heap of chaotic ruins in an instant.
"Li Shiji, how dare you!"
King Jin roared furiously. It was one thing to strike him, but demolishing his mansion was unacceptable.
Was that considered tearing down his home? That was a clear slap in the face.
Others might not know if Li Shiji struck him.
But everyone would know the next day if Li Shiji demolished his home.
If a mere King took the fight to him, where would King Jin’s dignity remain?
King Jin summoned his other two Venerable King-level pet beasts.
Suspicious Wisdom Wolf and Wine Poisoned Bird,
Li Shiji summoned three King-level pet beasts.
Demon Lotus Undying Dragon, Sandman Pharaoh, and Golden Dragon.
Additionally, he released the puppet Pure White Divine Tiger to clash with them.
Even though the Demon Lotus Undying Dragon, Sandman Pharaoh, and Golden Dragon were merely Kings, they could be resurrected and reshaped by Li Shiji’s Pupil Technique: Demon Lotus, making them fearless and extremely aggressive.
If at a disadvantage, they would self-destruct.
After death, they resurrected and fought again.
The three King-level pet beasts restrained the Suspicious Wisdom Wolf.
The Pure White Divine Tiger held off the Wine Poisoned Bird relying on its legendary talent [Pure White].
Li Shiji kept striking King Jin, who wielded the Venerable King-level King Jin’s Sword, using his continuous resurrection ability.
For a time, King Jin, despite being a Venerable King-level powerhouse, was at a clear disadvantage.
King Jin was infuriated. Li Shiji’s infinite resurrection ability was such a bug; even if he killed Li Shiji during battle, Li Shiji could resurrect the next second, whereas if he got injured, he was truly injured.
The longer it went, the more frustrated he grew.
As for the Blood-Annihilating Divine Arrow he had prepared to kill Li Shiji?
He dared not use it in front of the public.
The commotion from the battle in Prince Jin’s Mansion caught the attention of the kings around Shendu.
If he used the Blood-Annihilating Divine Arrow, Li Shiji’s death was uncertain, but the kings of Shendu would certainly unite to kill him under the guise of justice.
Why didn’t anyone come to help?
The Jin line’s relationships were quite poor.
No helpers, only those waiting to kick him while he’s down.
The fight had been going on for nearly ten minutes, and King Jin couldn’t hold on any longer and fled.
Li Shiji didn’t pursue; his intuition told him that pursuing might lead to a crisis of true death.
Li Shiji’s intuition was ten times sharper than that of an ordinary King, so he deeply trusts it.
Moreover, there was no need to pursue, as several Suicide Spirit Swords struck King Jin, and although they didn’t heavily injure him, the power of the Suicide Spirit Sword clung to him, causing immense trouble for King Jin.
If King Jin couldn’t suppress it, it wouldn’t be long before he faced death.
Even if he could suppress it, it would take over a decade to completely eradicate the power of the Suicide Spirit Sword.
Li Shiji plundered the resources from Prince Jin’s Mansion and then withdrew.
Upon returning to Fertile Island, Li Shiji immediately went into seclusion.
A month later, with his mind clear and mood relaxed, Li Shiji broke through his realm, ascending to become a Venerable King.
Li Shiji, who exhibited extraordinary battle prowess even as a King, upon breaching to Venerable King, left Li Cunxu unable to imagine just how formidable his power had grown.
With a gentle sweep of his Spiritual Power, Li Shiji obliterated a patch of trees into microscopic particles invisible to the naked eye in an instant.
"If I face King Jin again, I can kill him."
Li Shiji was eager to test his might and avenge King Jin.
Li Cunxu advised, "Grandfather, you must not reveal you have reached the Venerable King realm."
Li Shiji was not only feared by his enemies but also undesirable to the Four Evil Gods Sects, who couldn’t stand the Human Race doing well.
If Li Shiji’s realm was exposed, the Four Evil Gods Sects might either try to recruit or jointly eliminate him.
After all, Li Shiji’s infinite resurrection ability was too much of a bug.
Imagine, if Li Shiji reached Emperor level, how terrifying an Emperor with endless resurrections would be; even if descended upon by avatars of the Evil Gods, Emperor-level Li Shiji might still hold them at bay.
Contemplating a while, Li Shiji understood the reasoning and exhaled deeply.
"You’re right, I mustn’t reveal my stage."
"By the way, I almost forgot about this, here."
Li Shiji handed over eight pieces of Flawless Crystal Steel and a Soothing Mushroom found in Prince Jin’s Treasury to Li Cunxu.
With this, Li Cunxu had enough materials for the Mechanical Pupil evolution, with five spare pieces of Flawless Crystal Steel.
The Soothing Mushroom is an evolution material for an Extreme Crystal Dragon, which still lacks a Destruction Fluorite.
After swallowing the Heart of Lava and eighteen pieces of Flawless Crystal Steel, the brilliant light of evolution shone upon the Mechanical Pupil.
