261 THE HYPOTHESIS
The blessing of law was a miraculous phenomenon which occurs after the establishment of a law base by the cultivator. Many tried to pry the mystery behind an unusual phenomenon like this, but none were able to discern the truth. Cultivation, in general, was a path which went against heaven.
Every cultivator used the energy obtained from the world to raise his cultivation level. The very energy which the world gives birth to is fed upon by people to raise their power and break-through the limits. It is the reason why the path of martial strength and cultivation is not easy. It is the reason why martial artist always finds their paths to be hindered by the world itself.
Law blessing on the other hand is a miraculous phenomenon which only occurs when a practitioner finally breaks-through the Qi King level. When one finally sets up a law base within their body, a strange modification takes place within their body. The Law base induces runes within their Qi foundations, which then result in an automatic induction of energy from the environment.
It differs from person to person, but the amount of energy induced is proportional to the law one sets as his base, and its pace is quite high. The practitioners just need to revolve and consolidate their base within the Qi King level. The energy is continued to be supplied, and the cultivation base goes through an upgrade.
It is as if the world was blessing the practitioner with energy. No one could explain this natural phenomenon. Over the ages, many tried to pry into the mysteries, but no one came close to success.
.................
“You need to accept the law’s blessing now. This is the part where the artifact will no longer devour the energy. It has managed to swallow enough during the time of your break-through.”
“Did it upgrade into a new stage?”
“It has come quite close to another upgrade. Another Break-through of this level might just be the catalyst required for break-through.”
.....
“I guess I would require multiple attempts to ever reach that realm.”
“Didn’t you get enough insight during this break-through?” The Keeper couldn’t help but worry. This wasn’t what he wanted Long Tao to achieve.
“The understanding is not yet enough for even feeling the barrier between the next realm. It feels non-existent to me, but your words and actions proved me wrong. I need to continue the pursuit of that realm. I may not be able to step in in the first few cases, but there are still 9 avatars remaining. I believe in a slow-paced development for my law base.”
“I am sorry about my inability to guide you through the realm, but I can give you a hint about the path to follow.”
“What is the hint?” Long Tao was eager to get any clues which could lead to a better understanding of the realm.
“Your avatars might hold the key to achieve that realm.”
Long Tao looked at the eight shadows beside him and wondered what the Keeper was talking about.
.......................
“What are your estimates regarding junior brother’s Law blessings?” One of the three disciples asked the old man.
“I have little to no idea about what benefits this break-through might bring to him. Thunder-child went into seclusion for 3 months after his break-through and emerged directly as an intermediate Qi king. Your junior brother is someone who managed to connect with three simultaneous Heavenly laws.”
“Wouldn’t that mean that he would prove to have a better cultivation base than Thunder-child?”
“The working of Qi is quite mysterious even to me. The general elemental law dictates that the elements are required to be in harmony with each other to give out the perfect situation for growth. In this case, Li Meng established law connections with three elements, Thunder water and wind.”
“When a cultivator establishes two different kinds of elemental laws, they generally choose two harmonic ones. Any addition to this does create an imbalance, and hence the blessing might interfere with each other.”
“We could only leave matters to fate as Li Meng’s capability to take on the blessing is what will dictate the whole outcome. If he is capable enough to suppress all the laws, and take on the full power from the blessings, I believe he might have a chance to reach the very peak of intermediate Qi King.”
The old man was expectant of his disciple. Although their experiment did fail, his disciple was true to his words and connected with Three Heavenly Laws, with two earthen element laws. It was quite monstrous on its own.
...................
“Three Heavenly Elemental laws. This junior brother is talented for sure. He even sustained the pressure and completed the whole set with two extra earthen element laws too. Just how refined was his body.” Thunder-child couldn’t help but get agitated by this occurrence.
He could have dismissed Li Meng’s case if it were only two Heavenly laws like him. But the induction of a third law changed the whole situation, not to consider the complete set due to the two earthen laws.
“You should concentrate on breaking-through the next realm. Li Meng could be taken care of by your henchmen once he comes out of his seclusion. Concentrate on preparing for that event.” The old voice of grand-elder sounded.
Thunder-child was still filled with a strange struggle. Accepting himself to have dethroned from the seat of the most talented was not easy to come to terms with. He instantly sends out a message to his underlings. It was time for them to prepare a little welcome gift for the newly arrived junior brother.
................
“Just how could the avatars help me?” Long Tao was talking to himself. He was pondering over the Keeper’s hint.
The avatars each transformed Li Meng’s break-through. Whatever connection each of them were bonded with not only allowed them to share a different kind of energy but also allowed the Law runes to incubate within their bodies. Just what could those signify?
Long Tao began to compare between the runes within Li Meng’s body and the avatars. To his surprise, he did find a difference right away. The runes within the avatar’s body were not responding or were rather inactive. On the other hand, Li Meng’s runes were actively absorbing a huge amount of energy.
“Is this because of the break-through?”
“They should come into existence only when you break-through King realm.”
Given the avatars do have Heavenly Law runes, will they play any role during their break-through? Long Tao decided to count up the runes and compare the size and quantity. They were the same as Li Meng’s body. A sudden thought occurred to him, and he was beaming with excitement.
“I have an absurd theory, but it couldn’t be put into experimentation until the next break-through. What if these runes are not yet activated because of the avatar’s cultivation base? Once he does break-through the Qi King realm, they will all be activated.”
“But that would mean that you have a Heavenly Law cultivation base directly. You wouldn’t even need to go through the first step.”
“Exactly. That anomaly is what makes the whole theory so absurd.”
“Then you would just need to concentrate on connecting with other kinds of laws within the Heavenly realm. You would then be able to have multiple Law bases then, way more than three at least.”
The whole hypothesis had multiple avenues to give a thought about. He could only patiently wait and test the theory out. It was time to consolidate the base with the Qi King realm and accept the Law blessing.
