Chapter 129 - The End (1/2)
A burning sensation filled his forehead. When the totem carvings of the Ming King divine eye surged over to his forehead, they left behind a narrow and bloody wound, which was now scarred. The faint scar was shaped like a willow leaf that was made of gold foil with many marvelous-looking carvings on it.
It was the mark left behind by the totem carvings of the Ming King divine eye!
The Ming King divine eye totem pattern on the pontoon was already incomplete and now, the energy in it was plundered by his Fuxi divine third eye. Zhong Yue could feel the divine eye emerging on his forehead, draining the energy from his body.
Very soon, with such a terrifying rate of energy consumption, he would end up as a dried corpse in no time!
Within his psyche ocean, the beast god inner core was unceasingly releasing energy to incubate the divine eye, and also to prevent him from getting completely drained by the divine eye.
Concurrently with the time that the divine eye was consuming the energy released form the beast god inner core, it was also creating more Fuxi celestial blood from the beast god essence, and at an even faster rate than when Zhong Yue was purifying the Fuxi celestial blood himself with the beast god essence!
At this rate, the divine third eye would soon be fully matured, and the purity of the Fuxi celestial blood coursing through me would be raised to new heights to stand on the same level as Feng Clan's Feng Wuji and the headmaster!
On the second platform, a chapter in the [Monster God Ming King Art]'s about the usage of psyche emerged from a palace wall. The beginning chapter of the [Monster God Ming King Art] contained techniques pertaining to physical combat. While the psyche chapter contained the techniques relating to psyche-visualization. It expounded on tempering the psyche into a lightning pool in the psyche ocean, and the abstrusity about the psyche arts!
King Teng had finished attaining the abstrusity, and so he moved on. Walking onto the pontoon to test and verify his attainments on the psyche chapter.
His perception was truly exceptional, allowing him to be able to elucidate the abstrusity in the psyche chapter within such a short time. The totem carving mutations on the pontoon were different from the ones on the first pontoon, the first was purported to test and examine the Qi Practitioner's totem pattern mutations on their body's surface. While this pontoon tested the resonance of the psyche, examining whether the Qi Practitioner truly had elucidated the abstrusity in it.
If the Qi Practitioner's psyche was not in resonance with the totem patterns on the pontoon, it was foreseeable that they would definitely not end well!
However, as of now, King Teng hadn't committed any errors since he began. Hence, no one knew what exactly would happen if a Qi Practitioner failed to resonate with the totem carvings on the pontoon.
The psyche chapter of the [Monster God Ming King Art] is useless to me. It's not even anywhere close to my [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art]. Even now, I'm unable to visualize the whole [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art] to its fullest extent. Hence, it's unnecessary for me to learn the [Monster God Ming King Art]'s psyche chapter.
Zhong Yue looked carefully at the psyche chapter of the [Monster God Ming King Art]. Although it was very impressive, it was still merely a stone compared to the heaven-defying [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art]. Its essence , principles, and complexity of its totem permutations were all very much inferior to the [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art].
But if the psyche chapter is not fully attained, then it'd be impossible to continue learning the [Monster God Ming King Art], thankfully, this psyche chapter is not difficult at all.
How difficult was it to comprehend the [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art]? In comparison, doing the same for the psyche chapter of the [Monster God Ming King Art] would be a simple task for Zhong Yue.
The [Monster God Ming King Art] has its own abstrusity, no wonder they've spent so much time on it.
Not long later, Yu Xuanji and the others also stepped onto the pontoon, and so did Zhong Yue. Walking towards the third platform, suddenly, one of the heads of the monster Qi Practitioners was vaporized by the heat as if it was a kettle of boiling water with white steam rising above.
Zhong Yue was shocked, he quickly took two steps back so as to maintain a certain distance away from that Qi Practitioner, His attainments on the psyche chapter were wrong, his psyche failed to properly resonate with the totem carvings on the pontoon, resulting in his psyche ocean getting boiled!
Peng——
That Qi Practitioner's head exploded abruptly, but the headless corpse continued to walk onwards — this painted an incredibly eerie scene. The psyche that was still undispersed from the corpse drove the headless corpse to continue moving, despite its psyche ocean having already boiled!
The headless corpse took another few steps before its upper body exploded, followed by its legs, ultimately leaving only two furry feet that continued walking forward mindlessly —Pak-ta pak-ta—!
The other monster Qi Practitioners were frightened. All of a sudden, white steam billowed out of an unsuspecting monster Qi Practitioner. He was still marching forward, smiling and gloating, "Thankfully, my perception is better and my comprehensions aren't wron…."
Peng!
His head also exploded, following the footstep of the previous Qi Practitioner, dying on the pontoon!
Including Zhong Yue and King Teng, there were only eight Qi Practitioners left!
On the palace wall of the third platform was the weaponry chapter, it consisted of totem patterns pertaining to eight different weapon — sword, saber, hammer, dual shields, whip, and two hook swords. The corresponding skills were ones that visualized their respective weapons, naturally, they would be far more complicated and abstruse to understand.
These are eight weapon visualization skills, and they are all close-quarters combat skills ,. These are indeed very useful to me!
Zhong Yue was surprised and thrilled, he has practiced the frontal combat skills of the Martial Masters, but was lacking close-quarters combat weapons. Although he could have fought with Sword Qi, the techniques he had that used Sword Qi were all of different sources, there would naturally be some dissonance when used in conjunction with each other.
On the other hand, the prologue, psyche chapter and weaponry chapter of the [Monster God Ming King Art] were all rooted in the same source. Their strengths would augment each other when used simultaneously, lending his combat prowess an extra fluidity and flexibility that he lacked when he was limited to Sword Qi. It was a holistic art covering the facets of combat pertaining to defense, attack, sealing, close-quarters and ranged skills. It would be far more profound and intricate than if he were to create his own techniques and arts. And in addition to the frontal combat ability of the Martial Masters, it would make an incredibly terrifying combination!
On the pontoon, another two Qi Practitioners died, lacerated into bits by the eight weapons formed from the totem patterns on the pontoon!
And as of now, the surviving ones were: Zhong Yue, King Teng, Kong Ban, Yu Xuanji, Hu Qimei, and another monster Qi Practitioner.
Those who could have reached this stage could be deemed to be the most talented of the monster race. They had yet to make an error yet in all of the three platforms they passed through. Their talents and perception abilities were about the same.
