Chapter 445: Martial King
He looked at the sage’s stats with a serious expression, then let out a deep sigh.
“It’s causality,” he thought to himself. The sage had transcended causality. She probably used it to see the path before it even existed and practiced it early. This was the only explanation he could think of right now.
He sighed again. This law of causality looked really troublesome. He also had it, but his couldn’t do something like that. He needed to transcend it first if he wanted even a chance of beating the sage.
He dismissed these thoughts and summoned his system to check if the realm display had updated.
[Realm: Body: Martial Awakening (20,000/100,000,000)]
Finally, it was now visible.
But looking at the required experience points, it was truly insane just at the entry stage. Thinking about it though, it made sense. The jump in power from the hundredth layer to the awakening stage was so massive that a normal person might never cross it in their lifetime.
“With all these upgrades, it would be a shame if I couldn’t test them out in combat,” he thought, summoning his simulation function.
Inside the simulation, he decided to fight the beast god. Although the beast god was just an earth immortal, he definitely had the potential to reach the god realm. Besides, he was the only immortal left in the world except the ones he had made.
Xiang Yu set his opponent’s strength to the celestial lord realm. The moment the match started, Xiang Yu didn’t even bother using any laws. He simply appeared before his opponent in an instant.
He looked at himself with amazement. He was much faster now. He had broken through the light speed limit with just his pure physical stats. Even as he watched himself move, the beast god hadn’t even realized that the simulation had begun yet.
He flicked the beast god with a single finger, completely obliterating him into nothingness.
“This is insane.” The jump from before to now was simply too huge.
He decided to select the celestial king level beast god next. This one was more than a hundred times stronger than the previous version. The gaps between realms at higher levels were really insane. Even so, Xiang Yu easily wiped the floor with him, destroying him with just his pure physical strength.
Next was celestial emperor. This one caused him some trouble since the difference in power had jumped again. But after exchanging a few moves, he finally defeated him.
He challenged the celestial supreme level but was instantly defeated. It seemed celestial emperor was his current limit. He was still in the martial awakening realm but had early martial king combat power. He guessed this was because of his insane base physical stats.
He sighed and ended the simulation, picking a different opponent. This time, he chose the sage.
Unlike last time, the simulation didn’t instantly end the moment he selected it. He smiled. It looked like his earlier assumption was correct. He had simply been dying so fast that the simulation appeared to end instantly.
But now that he was immortal, the simulation wouldn’t end right away.
Even so, he still couldn’t do anything and was dying a few trillion times per second. He sighed and ended the simulation. The gap was simply too huge.
…
In the real world, Xiang Yu opened his eyes.
After some experiments, he seemed to have figured out the ranking of the remaining three martial realms.
He had stripped the sage of all her spirit cultivation in the simulation and given her just martial saint realm. He then did the same for the martial emperor and martial peak realms. After that, he did the same for the spirit realms without the martial realms.
With this, he compared the power of all the realms.
Through this, he figured out the progression of the sage realm.
There were six realms in the sage realm, each called a path. A first path sage, second path sage, third path sage, like that, up to the sixth path sage. Each path had incredible power compared to the last, and it was almost impossible to defeat someone above you in even a single path.
For example, a fifth path sage could take on a thousand fourth path sages easily. At least that’s what he derived from his experiments.
Anyway, he managed to get some information he could use to estimate the scaling of his new martial realms. First was martial saint, which corresponded to the first two paths of the sage realm. Second was the martial emperor, which corresponded to the third and fourth paths of the sage realm.
And lastly was martial peak, corresponding to the last two paths of the sage realm.
He felt that he had to rethink his plan about the sage. Just making a god was not enough. Even if he made a fifth path sage, it might not be enough. The sage Li Yao actually had peak martial peak. With just her pure physical power, she could match a sixth path sage. This was really insane.
Xiang Yu could only let out a sigh. Why was this sage so broken? Did the world really not want him to survive?
As he was thinking of this, he noticed something with his divine sense. It was the beast god.
“You actually dare to make a move against my wife? Are you tired of living?”
…
At the same time, Li Yao opened her eyes. She had just finished her breakthrough.
Zhu Que instantly rushed to her side when she saw her awaken.
“Zhu Que greets the lady,” she said, bowing.
Li Yao nodded her head. “Hmm, very good. I saw how you used the second sword. Impressive indeed. If you work hard, you might be able to master the third sword,” she said.
“The lady praises me too much…” As she was saying this, she suddenly turned around. Li Yao did the same, sensing someone approaching.
In the next instant, the beast god appeared before the two girls.
“You won’t escape this time, kid,” the beast god said.
Zhu Que was about to step up, but Li Yao stopped her. “Let me show you my new technique,” she said, pushing her to the side. She drew her sword. “This is the new method I’ve developed. I was planning on using it to take revenge on husband and the empress for bullying me, but looks like I’ll have to use it early…”
