Chapter 1099: Legacy of the War God (2/2)
Immediately, Tie Ta felt many things appear in his head. These things were all the battle comprehensions of Aergyns, containing many frighteningly powerful Mysteries of War.
The droplet of essence blood had already turned into a powerful energy that flowed through Tie Ta’s body. Although there was very little of it, it was still energy left behind by Aergyns. It contained vast amounts of energy of the world that had been compressed into a tiny droplet, so it was extremely terrifying and powerful.
Just that tiny amount of energy was enough to rival a portion of all the energy within a Saint Emperor, enough to rival several Saint Kings.
Tie Ta’s entire body was coated by a blinding golden light. He continuously absorbed the memories of Aergyns as the extremely-pure energy flowed unceasingly into his body. It was converted into Tie Ta’s own power at an unbelievable rate.
Warring gods were birthed by the world and were richly endowed with advantages. As Aergyns possessed the same bloodline as Tie Ta, there were no backlashes or consequences for Tie Ta as he increased his strength through the energy Aergyns had left behind.
Tie Ta’s presence rapidly strengthened, and the power within him increased quickly as well. He went from the Fifth Heavenly Layer to the Sixth Heavenly Layer very quickly, and not only did his rate of increase fail to show any signs of slowly down, it instead skyrocketed, becoming faster and faster.
Jian Chen and Hei Yu stood thirty meters away as they stared at Tie Ta unblinkingly, silently watching over him.
“Looks like Aergyns’ drop of essence blood is being absorbed by Tie Ta. This is a droplet of blood left behind by someone who has surpassed Saint Emperor. The energy hidden inside is so terrifying that it can even injure Saint Emperors, yet Tie Ta’s obtained it so easily,” Hei Yu emotionally sighed as he looked at Tie Ta with some envy.
“I’ve guessed correctly. Aergyns’ droplet of blood really is extremely beneficial to Tie Ta. Now that Tie Ta has come across this item, I wonder what level his strength will reach.” Jian Chen was filled with anticipation.
Seventh Heavenly Layer…
Eighth Heavenly Layer…
Ninth Heavenly Layer…
Tie Ta’s strength skyrocketed at an incomparable pace. In just half a day, he reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Saint Ruler from his original Fifth Heavenly Layer, bypassing four lesser cultivation levels.
Jian Chen clenched his hands as he stared at Tie Ta without blinking at all. Although Saint Ruler and Saint King both belonged to Sainthood, the difference between the two was still very great. He wondered if Tie Ta could borrow the energy within the blood to break through the barrier of the Ninth Heavenly Layer and reach Saint King.
Tie Ta’s presence at the Ninth Heavenly Layer slowly increased. Now, the energy he needed for each level of cultivation was increasing, which was why it took him longer and longer to break through.
Finally, Tie Ta’s presence reached the very peak of the Ninth Heavenly Layer. As Jian Chen watched with much anticipation, a vast and surging pressure immediately appeared from Tie Ta’s presence. It was extremely weak at first before quickly strengthening and blanketing the surroundings.
At the same time, the supreme battle intent sandwiched within the presence underwent a qualitative change, becoming much more powerful than before.
Suddenly, a golden streak of light cut through the sky. It passed through the forbidden altitude of the Dragon Island and landed accurately in between Tie Ta’s eyebrows, on the imprint of the battle ax.
This was the world passing on its teachings. Warring gods were born from the world and were blessed by the world. Every time they entered a new cultivation realm, the world would pass on teachings.
Tie Ta subconsciously raised his head and pointed the imprint at the sky. He accepted the teachings of the world as mysterious information appeared from the void, entering between Tie Ta’s eyebrows through the golden streak of light.
In a desolate continent, a group of life forms vastly different from humans inhabited the land. There were ten-meter-tall giants as well as handsome- and pretty-winged elves with pointy ears. There were also dark-skinned dwarves that were no taller than a meter, and even rockmen completely made from stone.
The continent was known as the Wasteland Continent, home to the Hundred Races. It was inhabited by a myriad of races, not just a single race like humans. However, there were some races who seemed extremely similar to humans.
At the center of the continent stood a mountain range that reached into the clouds. It was barren, without any vegetation. There were odd rock formations that stood around the dangerous terrain. It was unscalable.
At the highest peak of the mountain range, a divine golden hall radiated with blinding light all year round. It stood there silently and radiated with a simple but ancient presence. It had existed for countless years and was almost as old as the ground.
