Capítulo 450: Primordial Energy
“How are you going to awaken my martial path?” Li Yao asked.
She sat on Xiang Yu’s lap, tracing patterns along his chest with her finger.
“It’s a new method I’ve developed. I’m sure you’ll like it,” Xiang Yu said.
Instantly, his body expanded and Li Yao disappeared into him.
The method he had developed was quite simple. He just used his earlier infinite void technique that allowed him to swallow someone and beat them into nonexistence.
Of course, he wouldn’t use such a method on his wife… it was even worse.
Well, it wasn’t really as bad as one might think.
“She’ll be fine, right? Yeah, she should be fine… hmmm,” he muttered to himself.
[You’re losing more and more confidence with each word,] the Empress said, appearing behind him.
Xiang Yu exhaled deeply. Well, she should be fine. He had restructured the technique to make a sort of training chamber. When she entered his body, she was placed in a dedicated training space. This space would apply extreme gravity on her as well as beat her endlessly.
At the same time, he was also using his Law of Life and Keeper profession to supply her with endless lifeforce that stimulated her body, forcing it to heal any injuries and grow endlessly. With such support, he could go all out on the training(torture) ensuring her growth potential was stimulated endlessly.
With this method, he didn’t believe it would take her that long to awaken her martial path.
The reason he opted for this approach was that it was much easier to improve her body’s power than teach her a law. Although his teaching had improved, he didn’t think Li Yao was that much of a learner.
“You came at just the right time. Take this,” Xiang Yu said, handing her a clear crystal.
[Bloodline essence?] she wondered aloud.
“That’s right,” Xiang Yu said. “It’s a sample from the bloodline I created.”
[As expected of husband, very impressive,] she said.
Xiang Yu ignored her way of addressing him and continued, “The bloodline has affinity with many things which might not be viable for someone like Li Yao, so I stripped almost everything and left just the parts that are useful to her – like the Heavenly Way and stuff.
Nevertheless, it’s still a divine level bloodline.” He explained, “With it as a starting point, I’m sure you can make something impressive. You know what’s good for the both of you… ”
He thought to himself that although the divine level Absolute Source bloodline was great, it might not be that useful to someone like Li Yao. It was best to have the Empress make something that fit her perfectly.
[I understand,] she said.
Hearing this, Xiang Yu smiled. He then summoned his system. Just as he was about to start going through the reset stats, he felt someone hug him from behind. He was surprised at first but calmed himself.
[Husband… I—] “I’m scared,” she finished without her authority.
Xiang Yu exhaled deeply. “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure it won’t come to that,” he explained.
He thought to himself that the Empress seemed to have realized something. When the time came to fight the Sage, if they weren’t strong enough, the Empress might have to merge back into Li Yao, increasing her power but also meaning the Empress would cease to be.
She suddenly let go.
[I’m not scared of that,] she said, regaining her composure before disappearing.
Xiang Yu wondered if she was really okay. As she had told him, the longer one lived, the more scared they were of dying. And Li Yao’s personality was also beginning to integrate into her more and more.
It seemed she was still shaken up.
He decided to cheer her up. He waved his hand and created a hundred clones inside his spiritual sea. He assigned these new clones to focus purely on cooking. He would make soul-focused celestial grade spirit food for the Empress to cheer her up.
Besides, if her soul reached eternal grade, she would instantly revive as a god, increasing their combat power greatly.
…
Xiang Yu finally looked at his system screen. Most of the stats didn’t seem to have changed much.
As for laws, they had changed quite a bit since the reset. They were now at Manifestation, and Absolute Source was at Complete Manifestation.
Speaking of, after it entered Complete Manifestation, Xiang Yu gained some divine power.
It seemed that completing a law was what gave divine power, not entering the god realm. It just so happened that entering the god realm came with completing a law. Although this didn’t change much for others, for him, it was everything.
This meant that he could receive more and more divine power by completing his laws.
He wondered how much divine power he would have if he completed all three thousand laws.
Just the divine power that one would get from a single law alone would be enough to do many things – just imagine having it three thousand times over. Also, looking at the amount of divine power he gained from the Absolute Source law, it was even more than all the divine power he had before.
He wondered if it would be the same for all laws or if the Absolute Source law was simply too powerful.
As he was thinking about this, he felt something react within him. He closed his eyes and concentrated. It was something similar to divine power but fundamentally different. He continued concentrating on the sensation until finally, he narrowed it down. It was another authority-type power, similar to divine power.
But this one felt much stronger compared to divine power.
Tracing where it was coming from, he discovered that it had emerged after the formation of his primordial level bloodline. He decided to name this primordial energy.
This was a nice discovery. Seeing as it was much more powerful than divine power, he felt he wouldn’t lack a use for it in the future.
Another surprising thing he discovered was that it was somewhat attracted to the divine power, as though wishing to devour it. He controlled the two energies and isolated them.
He theorized that this primordial energy might be able to multiply if it consumed divine power, but he wasn’t too sure, so he put it on hold. He would experiment later when he had more divine power.
