“We can only briefly see what happened in battle,” Chi Qiu Bai laughed. “But that four-armed old man died under that move, and he was able to experience how formidable that move was. There has to be a reason why he suspects that that move was either an embryonic form of a grade two or grade one True Meaning!”
“Grade one? I don’t even dare to think about it!” Faction Head Si Kong Yang shook his head.
Grade one True Meaning…
Across the countless worlds, even in the Deity World, it would be a peak True Meaning, a legend among the legends.
With just a grade two True Meaning’s name, — True Meaning of Great Destruction, True Meaning of Reincarnation, True Meaning of Time Stoppage, True Meaning of Yin Yang, True Meaning of Space, True Meaning of Minute, and many others, it was seen as terrifying much less to say those on the highest tier, the grade one True Meaning. Each and every grade one True Meaning represented a part of the fundamental essence of the World.
“Haha, I guess this Transcendent native isn’t that knowledgeable,” Gong Yu laughed. “But since Dong Bo Xue Ying can complete the Mountain Road mission with just ordinary fighting experiences, equipment, and secret techniques, and considering the battle, fellow elders, from what I can see, I feel that there is more than 80 percent chance that it is a grade two True Meaning.”
“I’m inclined towards grade two True Meaning embryonic form as well,” The black-haired old man added.
“Who would have thought that our Xia Clan will see another powerful Transcendent with a grade two True Meaning emerge,” Si Kong Yang lamented, laughing at himself. “And I had almost destroyed it myself!”
Previously, he was merely suspecting.
However, after watching the combat scene and hearing what the four-armed old man said before dying, the certainty of Dong Bo Xue Ying grasping hold of an embryonic form of a grade two True Meaning increased greatly!
“You have been suppressing Dong Bo Xue Ying harshly before this,” The black-haired old man said. “This time, you should atone for it.”
“Naturally. When one knows his mistake, he will correct it!” Faction Head Si Kong Yang nodded. “I’ll push his ranking directly to number one right now!”
“Directly to number one?” Chi Qiu Bai laughed.
“Definitely number one! Even if it was not an embryonic form of a grade two True Meaning, just having an embryonic form of a grade three True Meaning is enough,” Si Kong Yang said. “None of the other young Transcendents have even grasped hold of the embryonic form of a True Meaning, and furthermore, Dong Bo Xue Ying is still young! It is more than enough for him to be number one. Furthermore, there is a high chance he comprehended a grade two True Meaning embryonic form. Oh right, fellow elders, we must not let others know of this. Everything related to Dong Bo Xue Ying’s combat power must be kept secret.”
“Rest assured, it will be kept between the four of us,” The black-haired old man, Palace Head Chen nodded. “Just tell the others Dong Bo Xue Ying has formed the embryonic form of a grade three True Meaning. We’ll also remind Dong Bo Xue Ying of this matter as well.”
“We also need to arrange some protective treasures,” Si Kong Yang said. “I’ll have to trouble you with this, Old Chen. The treasures our Water Daoist Faction can bring out aren’t enough.”
“Certainly,” Palace Head Chen did not disagree.
The power the Infernal Palace Palace Head holds was extremely powerful. After all, he was someone absolutely loyal to the Xia Clan, and thus had some precious treasures belonging to the Xia Clan’s clan protection treasures.
Clearly, Xue Ying’s status had surged up crazily, and he was now someone the Xia Clan would protect!
…
The four Demigods discussed with each other before confirming the protective treasures they would give Xue Ying. As for Xue Ying, he was not in a hurry to leave the mountain. Instead, he remained at the end of Mountain Road, on the peak of the towering mountain.
I cannot look down upon all Saint realm Transcendents. Thought Xue Ying, as he looked at the dead body of the four-armed old man. He reflected upon the match, absorbing the experiences from the battle.
In the second section where he met those two Transcendent natives, even though they were peak stage Saint realm Transcendents, their comprehension of the Realms was too low. All they had were empty strength and speed… the moment he suppressed them with his comprehension of the Realms, they died easily.
But this four-armed old man was clearly different! The Xia Clan had forbidden him to use any Transcendent weapons, thus he had to battle with his bare fists! Furthermore,, with just his comprehension of the grade seven True Meaning, the True Meaning of Water Waves, he was still able to exert his own strength exquisitely, causing Xue Ying to defend awkwardly. After his weapon clashed against his fist, he incurred heavy injuries.
If he had not broken through, then at the very last moment of despair, he would have admitted defeat and let the treasure spirit save him, and if the spirit came too late, he would have died.
Even though I’ve broken through, Xue Ying thought, Those truly powerful peak stage Saint Transcendents have powerful weapons, and will have their own True Meaning as well. Never can I look down upon them.
The embryonic form of my True Meaning is being perfected.
And my combat power is becoming stronger.
The day he grasped hold of his True Meaning would be the day he would get to laugh at everything under the heavens. Right now, he was still too green.
The embryonic form of True Meaning I have this time.… Xue Ying lifted his finger, lightly drawing it in front of him. Three colours of Profound Mysteries were seen revolving around his finger, seemingly holding the power to break through space. Space had many layers, and that attack of his had pierced through many of them.
At the instancewhen it pierced through space-
Xue Ying’s soul and mind experienced that illusory scene once again. In the vast void, there were huge planets revolving around slowly…
The end of everything, and the beginning of everything.
The origin of time.
All Myriad Existences had become one. He could feel and understand all the Profound Mysteries, which were agglomerating and fusing into one entity.
Cultivators would comprehend the World in order to understand certain Profound Mysteries. But at this moment, it felt like everything in the World had been condensed into this sphere, forming a point.
A point of extremity? Xue Ying’s heart was beating really fast.
As his finger lightly drew out in front of his eyes, layers of space were pierced through, and even the flow of time had been obstructed. All the energy existing in the world avoided this particular point-like water wave.
Is this a point of extremity? The Myriad Existences originated from one. Cultivation will have a final destination, but that is also the beginning of everything? Xue Ying really did not dare believe that he had touched upon this point of extremity, but he had touched just a strand of the most outer layer. But regardless of that, it should be related to the True Meaning of Extremity!
