Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 968 - 966: The Ninth Flower of Law
The Fierce Tiger Pill entered his stomach and instantly turned into a terrifying surge of heat, sweeping through Chu Ming's body. His face turned red, and as the Star Undying Body operated, a beam of starlight descended from the sky!
Rumble!
Splash!
Threads of starlight merged into Chu Ming's flesh. Chu Ming could clearly feel the slow strengthening of his body. If he were to look inside, he would discover that his blood and bones were merging with these starlights, emitting a jade-like luster!
Rumble!
The effects of the Fierce Tiger Pill were being rapidly consumed, for the energy required for the breakthrough of the Star Undying Body was truly terrifying!
Whoosh!
Suddenly, beams of light burst out from Chu Ming's body. As the light hit the ground, it completely pierced through it, leaving a ground riddled with holes!
Crack!
Suddenly, it was as if Chu Ming broke through a certain barrier, and a powerful force surged from within him!
Second Layer!
"Huff!"
Chu Ming gently exhaled a breath, and countless starlights puffed out from his mouth. Now with the Star Undying Body at the Second Layer, Chu Ming fully erupted, appearing like a star constantly emitting starlight!
"Finally upgraded the Star Undying Body to the second level of constitution!"
Chu Ming thought silently to himself. The energy required for upgrading the Star Undying Body to the Second Layer had completely exhausted the Fierce Tiger Pill!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With a wave of his right hand, Chu Ming set up numerous restrictions before him. At the same time, he instructed Xiao Ai to keep an eye on the surroundings and notify him immediately if there was any movement.
This was the Nine Elements Dao Palace. Once the Myriad Stone was exposed, even as a direct disciple of the Tianyuan Patriarch, it would bring him huge trouble.
Having done all this, Chu Ming retrieved a dazzling piece of ore, the size of a fist, from his Storage Ring!
Myriad Stone!
As soon as the Myriad Stone appeared, a multitude of powers of laws surged around Chu Ming, colorful and resplendent. Luckily, Chu Ming had set up countless restrictions around it in advance, otherwise, the Myriad Stone would have been exposed with just that!
Rumble!
The Flower of Slaughter Law bloomed on Chu Ming's right arm!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Grasping the Myriad Stone, Chu Ming seemed to be entrenched in the place where the power of laws was the densest in the Land of Laws!
...
"The Land of Laws has been destroyed!"
A pitch-black figure arrived on a dark planet, muttering with a gloomy expression. After giving the Land of Laws a long look, it completely melded into space, as if it had never been there!
Behind this dark figure, several figures resembling Chaos Demon Gods emerged from the void, with cold expressions!
...
Rumble!
A month later, at Chu Ming's residence in the Nine Elements Dao Palace, threads of red power of laws entwined around him, terrifying beyond measure!
"Finally condensed the ninth Flower of Law!"
Chu Ming extended his right arm, and flowers of law bloomed on it, exceedingly enchanting!
Even though the ninth Flower of Law was condensed, the power of laws within the Myriad Stone showed no sign of diminishing!
"This Myriad Stone is truly a treasure!"
Chu Ming murmured!
It's imaginable that as long as an Emperor Dao powerhouse holds the Myriad Stone, they could condense nine Flowers of Law in a very short time!
Boom!
Chu Ming stood up from the ground, and a terrifying aura emanated from him, causing starlit rivers to tremble, the void to quake, and crackling sounds akin to frying beans to echo from his bones!
Now, Chu Ming's strength is several dozen times stronger than before entering the Land of Laws, even confident enough to slash a Saint Dao First or Second Layer expert with a single sword!
"It should almost be time to enter the Eye of the Storm!"
Chu Ming rubbed his chin, pondering to himself.
The Eye of the Storm was a test and training for Inner Palace disciples. Although they were accompanied by Core Disciples, many Inner Palace disciples lost their lives each time!
"I must hurry and refine the Beast Control Compass first!"
Chu Ming took out the Beast Control Compass, suffusing it with Soul Power, directly enveloping it!
...
"For this trip to the Eye of the Storm, you will lead the team. There are a total of one hundred and fifty disciples accompanying you. You must not slack off, as this concerns the lives of many disciples!"
In front of the Divine Martial Hall, Yuan Bujing spoke to a young man in a white robe.
"Understood, Yijian!"
The young man in the white robe nodded slightly, respectfully responding to Yuan Bujing.
Ning Yijian, one of the core disciples of the Nine Elements Dao Palace, held a great reputation in the Celestial Net Star Realm. Although his cultivation was not much higher than Hua Wushen's, he was unmatched by even ordinary Saint Dao Fourth Layer experts!
His swordsmanship pushed speed, ferocity, and precision to the extreme. Often, in duels, he only needed one strike, and the opponent would be dead before they even realized it!
"Hmm!"
Yuan Bujing nodded slightly, a satisfied look appearing in his eyes!
...
"Chu Ming, the Palace Master wants to see you at the Divine Martial Hall!"
At the Inner Palace residence, a gray-robed steward delivered the message to Chu Ming before leaping away!
"Time to head to the Eye of the Storm!"
A glint flashed in Chu Ming's eyes!
In a swift movement, his figure transformed into a streak of light, heading toward the Divine Martial Hall!
Upon his arrival at the Divine Martial Hall, a dense crowd of disciples was already gathered. These Inner Palace disciples were not very powerful, most being at the Sixth or Seventh Layer of Emperor Dao!
Standing at the front of these Inner Palace disciples was a young man with striking eyebrows and eyes like stars, with a cold gaze in which countless sword lights flickered ominously!
"Such a powerful Sword Momentum!"
Upon seeing Ning Yijian, Chu Ming was instantly startled. Ning Yijian's Sword Dao Cultivation had clearly reached the ultimate realm of Sword Dao, and Ning Yijian's cultivation was at the Second Heaven of the Saint Dao, standing there like a Supreme Divine Sword!
"Greetings, Palace Master!"
Chu Ming flew to Yuan Bujing, cupping his hands in a respectful gesture.
"Hmm!"
Yuan Bujing nodded slightly, his eyes gleaming with greater joy upon seeing that Chu Ming's cultivation had reached the Sixth Heaven of Emperor Dao!
"This is Core Disciple Ning Yijian, the leader for this foray into the Eye of the Storm. You two should get acquainted!"
Yuan Bujing introduced him to Chu Ming.
"Chu Ming, this Ning Yijian has killing intent toward you!"
Suddenly, Xiao Ai said to Chu Ming in his mind.
"Hmm?"
Chu Ming's expression remained unchanged, his gaze falling on Ning Yijian, who at the same moment was looking at Chu Ming, pulling a rigid smile onto his face.
"I've long heard of Junior Brother Chu's reputation. Seeing you today, the rumors are indeed true!"
Ning Yijian praised with his lips, though a hint of a sneer flashed in his heart. No matter how talented, once inside the Eye of the Storm, it wouldn't be up to him!
"Those are just empty reputations, still far behind Senior Brother Ning!"
Chu Ming replied with an indifferent expression.
