Man covers the sky and conquers all worlds

Chapter 225 The Four Extremes, the Four Symbols of Heaven (Two-in-One)

Before this, her thought was: either Dawn hadn't realized the crux of the matter and had simply agreed without question.

Their Demon Kingdom will also provide compensation afterward.

After all, one should not underestimate a strong person of this level.

Alternatively, after realizing this, they would engage in fierce bargaining with him, and then reveal the true sincerity and trump cards of the Demon Kingdom to show goodwill to Dawn.

Unexpectedly, even after Dawn saw through their scheme, she agreed so easily.

The only condition was that they use their power to bring the humans from the barbarian and witch tribes' territories...

This is both an easy task and a difficult one.

The specific level of difficulty depends on how big Li Ming's appetite is.

It should be understood that after years of repeated conquests, the foreign tribes on the border would not only take away wealth after breaching a city, but also a large number of people.

Some of these abducted people became food for these foreign tribes, while others were kept in captivity like cattle and sheep.

Of course, there are also great sages among the alien races.

In order to completely subdue this group of captured humans, they adopted a method of ruling people by their own people.

This caused them to be in opposing camps, yet they harbored mutual hatred and vigilance towards each other.

Only a very small number of skilled craftsmen can ensure they have enough to eat and avoid getting involved in the internal conflicts of the human race, allowing them to focus solely on forging weapons and armor for other races.

The demon race also abducted a considerable number of people.

However, the former Queen of Ten Thousand Demons had made an agreement with the Daoist Master of the Human Race: the Daoist Master of the Human Race would not harm her life, and the Queen of Ten Thousand Demons would not slaughter the human race.

Therefore, the human race under the rule of the demon race, because they did not have heavy taxes, lived a more comfortable life than the refugees on the border of the Great Feng Dynasty in some respects.

Therefore... the human race is widely distributed.

However, these are all ordinary humans. Apart from farming, what use are they to this being?

Could it be... that this person is truly the Human Emperor?

Or perhaps this person's cultivation method has touched upon a legendary taboo...

It requires the sacrifice of countless souls and flesh...

Princess Ye was very puzzled, but she still respectfully bowed to the dawn.
"I will certainly convey Your Excellency's request to my master. Please wait a little while."

It wasn't that he wanted to stall for time, but rather that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox had just entered the first rank and had created its last clone.

We are currently in a critical period of seclusion and cannot act rashly.

"No need. First, gather the million people in your territory and escort them to the land you mentioned. Your master will agree!"

Li Ming glanced at Ye Ji, whose figure was graceful and whose temperament was as delicate as a daisy.

She glanced again at the girl who had been eager to try but was constantly suppressed by the Night Princess and was almost unable to speak.

In the blink of an eye, he remembered the girl's background.

This girl is probably also an avatar of that nine-tailed celestial fox, and moreover, the last avatar that the nine-tailed celestial fox split off from.

Her name is Shirohime.

However, judging from the lively look in her eyes, she didn't seem to possess the same innocence that Li Ming described in the book.

Li Ming's gaze fell upon the girl, a glint of light vibrating the void, instantly neutralizing the sealing techniques Ye Ji had placed upon her.

"This little boy... seems to have something to say."

"Where...is...it...small..."

Upon hearing this, the girl's two furry ears immediately stood up, and her fur bristled instantly.

But when her gaze unconsciously drifted downwards and landed on her egg-shaped breasts, her words lost some of their forcefulness.

It does seem... a bit too small.

"Cough cough!"

After a brief moment of distraction, the young girl Bai Ji immediately recovered, composed herself, and said...

"This is a divine material left behind by our clan's former Demon King when he fell. It has been imbued with the laws of heaven and earth. Our master said that only someone like you is worthy of it, and he personally sent me to bring it to you!"

At this point, he glanced at Ye Ji with a slightly provocative look in his eyes.

Ye Ji remained expressionless, seemingly oblivious, but inwardly she felt a bit of a headache.

This thing, which should have been saved for last and offered as a timely help when dawn showed its need, was thrown out by this spendthrift.

As Bai Ji spoke, she spread her slender, white fingers and grabbed a piece of metal-like substance from the depths of the void.

"Metal imbued with the power of the laws of heaven and earth...that's interesting."

Without any hesitation, Li Ming grasped the liquid metal in his hand with a slight movement of his palm.

This piece of metal is only about the size of an average person's fist.

Its entire body displays seven colors, and deep within it, there are traces of the operation of some of the rules of heaven and earth.

Even if it is not forged into the ultimate weapon of this world, but merely used to comprehend the Dao of Heaven and Earth, if one can understand it thoroughly, one might be able to step into the first-grade realm!
Of course, this requires that the laws practiced by the person seeking enlightenment be extremely compatible with it.

Just like the current ruler of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, who, along with his mother, belongs to the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox.

And this nine-tailed celestial fox has now entered the first-grade realm.

Perhaps... that's why he was able to bear the pain of parting with it.

After all, for her, who had already reached the first rank, this item was merely equivalent to a precious divine material.

However, this is indeed a very significant item.

Both its value and its weight are quite good.

The fact that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox was willing to part with such a precious material, enough to forge the ultimate artifacts of this world, demonstrates his sincerity.

Li Ming knew very well that, seemingly due to the great changes in the world, there were almost no truly divine talents born of heaven and earth in this realm who could withstand the rules of this land.

Those rare, supreme-grade artifacts are either forged by a supreme being using a part of their own body, or they are made of materials similar to the fortune of heaven and earth.

The one in question seems to belong to the former category.

"Very well, since that's the case, then you should hurry up and make the necessary arrangements."

The moment he got his hands on the item, he immediately told the customer to leave.

This was indeed a pleasant surprise for him.

A piece of metal bearing the marks of a semi-super-grade existence is indeed qualified to become one of the materials for him to forge the Four Extremes Weapon.

However, after reaching the fourth level, one's fists and feet can penetrate heaven and earth, and manipulate the rules of heaven and earth. This one piece of divine material alone should not be enough. At least three more objects of the same level are needed.

But Li Ming wasn't in a hurry; this item was enough for him to forge a prototype.

As for that wisp of primordial energy of all things, which fell out a long time ago and had not yet been manifested by him, as well as the human energy of this world.

He has another purpose.

Below the cave, Ye Ji remained expressionless, gave a slight bow, and then turned and left.

The young girl, Bai Ji, roared inwardly in disbelief.
"Is this person...is this person really that materialistic?"

She thought that... with all her attentiveness, Leon Lai would at least look at her with new respect.

Correspondingly, her status within the demon race was also gradually rising. But Li Ming's attitude drove her somewhat crazy.

While she was struggling with her inner turmoil, Ye Ji and the other maids had already left the cave.

Dawn merely glanced at her, and she suddenly felt a daze, followed by a dizzying sensation.

When she came to her senses, she was already outside the cave.

But that heavy door had been closed at some point.

"you……"

The young girl, Bai Ji, was so angry that her teeth itched. She subconsciously clenched her fists, wanting to hit the door, but she stopped herself at the last moment.

Although she was spoiled and domineering, she was also very clear-headed.

If the true owner of this body finds out that he has offended this person, he will probably suffer a lot.

……

Inside the cave, Li Ming held up the nearly ten-thousand-pound mass of liquid metal in his hands and began to silently circulate the Four Extremes Scroll of the Eternal Universe.

hum!
As numerous Daoist techniques transformed into faint, tangible traces of laws, they traversed his mind and body.

That golden chakra, as small as a mustard seed, descended once more from the otherworldly void, illuminating his flesh and blood in a golden glow.

Wow!
The roar of blood, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing, descended once more upon the cave along with the intense, sun-like aura of blood.

In that instant, a law from another realm descended out of thin air, actually isolating another world within the cave and cutting off the Heavenly Dao's exploration.

"The Four Poles of Eternal Universe..."

As dawn opened and closed her eyes, an astonishing light almost pierced through the void.

He could feel that as he delved deeper into the Four Extremes Eternal Universe Scripture, the laws of heaven and earth were becoming increasingly closer to him.

His other arm, however, seemed to be being scorched by the furnace of heaven and earth.

He could feel that even his own strong blood energy was gradually drying up under such scorching heat.

However, after each ten thousand strands of blood energy are dried up, a new, even more powerful, crimson-gold blood energy will be born!

It was as if his two arms, under the imprint and forging of all the laws of heaven and earth, were being transformed into the divine iron of the main universe of the Heaven-Covering World.

"Such growth...!"

Feeling the astonishing changes within his body, even with Li Ming's keen eyesight, he couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

Although his body did not fully incorporate the ancient holy body from the main universe of the Heaven-Covering Realm.

But... in the nearly two years since his arrival, he has relied on his superior realm and the reflection of the Myriad Paths Diagram.

It was almost completely rebuilt.

This almost pushed the body to the limit that this level of development could achieve.

This is why he was only a third-rank martial artist.

Yet, relying solely on his pure flesh and blood physique, he managed to gain the upper hand in a physical confrontation with that second-grade Arhat.

Although it would take all our strength to completely eradicate it, it was only barely managed to do so.

But that was him a year ago. If it were now, he wouldn't need to use any other power; he could rely solely on this terrifying body and the power of the Ancient Sacred Body.

That would completely obliterate that Arhat.

Even if it were a first-grade being, he might not be unable to fight against him.

Of course, the "first-class" here refers to the ordinary first-class.

Even among those at the same first-grade level, there are huge differences.

Just like an ordinary Buddhist bodhisattva, or the half-step martial god, the monk Shenshu.

It is also of the first rank.

The latter wanted to kill the former, but it was done with ease, with every move he made.

As the thought crossed his mind, Li Ming suddenly raised his eyes.
"That's right. Since the Demon Queen left behind such a rule-based object when she fell, did the monk Shenshu also have something similar left behind after he was dismembered and suppressed by the Buddha?"

Compared to the Dao of the Demon Queen, Dawn was more interested in the monk Shen Shu, who was half a Martial God.

After all, in this realm, there seem to be multiple cultivation systems that directly lead to the Super Grade, or even beyond.

But if we're to be truly rigorous, there are actually only two systems that possess this potential.

The first type is all systems except for the martial arts system!
In fact, whether it is the path cultivated by many super-grade gods and demons in ancient times, or the many attempts made by Dao Venerable since ancient and medieval times, it is a path that is not the only path that is the ...

In reality, it's all just about devouring the Heavenly Dao, becoming the Heavenly Dao, and surpassing the Heavenly Dao!
The second type is the martial arts system...

This is a transformation from the very origin of life, elevating one's own life essence to a level comparable to the world, or even to a point where laws arise spontaneously within one's own domain!

As for the Confucian system, which relies on luck to form, in Li Ming's view, it is merely a system that has been castrated by the Way of Heaven.

In the end... we took the wrong path.

However, it is extremely consistent with the path of the human emperor that he followed.

Therefore, the carving knife that carried the spirit of Confucianism and the sage of Confucianism was also part of Li Ming's plan.

Of course, from beginning to end, what Dawn valued most in this world, besides the Heavenly Dao, was the divine power of the half-step Martial God!
After all, throughout history, only Shen Shu has ever come so close to that threshold.

For Dawn, who walks through the heavens and burns all paths to achieve his own, whether it's a system that replaces the Heavenly Way or a martial arts system that forms its own world...

He wants it all!
His body, though, was that of a native of this world.

But he was not a native after all.

His path of cultivation was guided by many great emperors from the ancient times of the Great Universe Shrouding the Heavens.

Even if the Heavenly Dao of this world is powerful, how can it compare to the many Great Emperors of the Great Universe of Shrouding the Heavens?
Those individuals were all masters who fought against heaven and earth, some even being supreme beings who had fought their way out of the near-end of Dharma!
hum!
As numerous thoughts swirled in his mind, he seized this opportunity to isolate himself from the world. The three secret realms, like fleeting moments, rose and fell within the depths of Li Ming's body.

Under the reflection of the three mysterious realms, Dawn briefly returned to its original form.

His many accumulations in this world have continuously converged into one place.
"The Four Symbols of Heaven..."

Since ancient times, the will of Heaven has been difficult to fathom.

What he gained in this world was not just the accumulation of martial arts knowledge.

Examples include the Buddhist practice of making grand vows and the Taoist methods of refining qi and elixirs.

He explored various fields during that year.

But Dawn knew very well that the ultimate source of all this was the replacement of the Way of Heaven!

With the right goals in mind, Li Ming's cultivation progressed extremely quickly, and he had already cultivated both of these systems to the fourth rank.

Now, he intends to forge his Four Extremes Weapon under the guidance of the Four Extremes Eternal Universe Scripture and that indescribable scripture.

The resources it burns for come from the accumulation of these two systems.

Sizzle!
Under the operation of the Hengyu Scripture and the Shihao Ancient Scripture, the accumulation of these two systems actually transformed into a raging fire, just like fuel, and began to burn the lump of metal in Liming's hand.

However, seemingly limited by insufficient accumulation, no matter how intense the terrifying flames scorched it, the metal remained unchanged, quietly suspended in the void.

There was no change whatsoever.
