Chapter 439 - 264: Significant Increase in Strength_1
Devouring Manji’s essence was so vast, like an ocean, that even though the World Tree was only giving back a part, it almost caused him to burst.
There was also a wealth of information contained within the flesh and blood of Manji.
Jiang Ming’s strength increased rapidly, with golden battle patterns condensing inside his body one after another, one million five hundred thousand, two million.
Yet, it didn’t stop there, as even his height continued to shoot up, his aura escalating rapidly to an extreme ferocity.
Hum…
The swiftly rising aura came to a halt as the number of golden battle patterns inside his body reached as many as three million.
Three million, that was the pinnacle of human Body Refinement in the Eleventh Realm.
The true pinnacle.
But Jiang Ming’s height did not cease to increase, eventually reaching a towering ninety meters, truly becoming a giant, his head touching the sky, feet standing upon the earth.
In such a state, his aura twisted the Void, impacted the heavens, and sent the Holy Heart flying far away.
“Strong, too strong!”
As Jiang Ming clenched his fist, it seemed as though an atomic bomb exploded in the palm of his hand, the supremely compressed power causing the temperature to skyrocket to nine hundred thousand degrees.
“What extent can my physical strength burst forth to now?”
With a single thought, a rough calculation made him incredibly exhilarated.
Life Gene Level: one hundred times.
Law of Heaven and Earth: ninety meters, that’s thirty times the explosion.
Infinite Rules: one hundred times.
Inch Fist: forty-two times amplification.
Exploding Heart Skill: three times.
Extreme force, an explosion of over thirty-seven million times.
It reached an incredible level; if it were close-quarters combat, he could explode everything. The only drawback was that he could not support the burst for a long time, and his body’s Divine Skills were far inferior to those of the Twelfth Realm.
But paired with the Supreme Territory, who could contend against him?
Plus, with the Pocket World Projection that was even more terrifying than World Descend…
“The Warzone of Ten Thousand Tribes is nothing but chickens and dogs!”
Jiang Ming couldn’t help but feel a disdain for all the powerful, yet he quickly slashed that thought away, regaining his calm.
Though his combat power was strong, it was only for a short burst.
Looking back at Manji, even blowing up his head wouldn’t kill him, and had it not been for the World Tree, it would likely take a very long time to completely kill him.
After all, the physical body of a powerful being in the Twelfth Realm contains a drop of blood with Supreme Will.
Regeneration from flesh and blood, rebirth from a drop of blood, is not difficult.
Jiang Ming closed his eyes, his heart sinking into his body, and he found the Thunder Pool that had been dragged into the Pocket World space by the roots of the World Tree was quietly hanging on a branch, like a small accessory.
That branch was branded with the rules of thunder.
He also had a feeling that now he could fully control this Supreme Artifact that he had snatched, activating its might.
“Manji has not refined it yet, has not fully activated the power contained within.”
Jiang Ming had gained some enlightenment as well.
But he was even more astounded by the terror of the World Tree.
Now, the Pocket World space hadn’t expanded, but it had become stronger and more stable. The Rule chains crisscrossed and interwove, evolving and operating in a way that made this place resemble a real world.
If he were to initiate the Pocket World Projection again, its might would certainly skyrocket.
“I’m becoming more and more abnormal as I go!”
With his mind returning to him, Jiang Ming smiled, but the thought of having to comprehend three hundred and sixty-five rules made his scalp tingle with numbness.
Turning around, he looked at Holy Heart, who still had a shocked expression on her face, and said with a laugh, “You’re not scared now, are you?”
“Indeed, I am scared,” Holy Heart nodded, marveling, “I never imagined I would witness a Great War of the Twelfth Realm so closely, nor did I expect it to be so terrifying. But what I truly did not expect was Brother Jiang, who actually managed to annihilate Manji of the Golden Alliance. Even now, I have a sense of unreality, as if experiencing an illusion or a dream.”
“I also feel unreal,” Jiang Ming reflected, “My strength has increased too rapidly, and often I can’t grasp my true combat power. I thought it would be good enough to be competitive, but to my surprise, I killed the opponent in just a few moves.”
With a twisted corner of her mouth, Holy Heart retorted: Silly talk!
The two continued on their way.
The fragmented space mist in front of them, shattered by the blasts, once again spread and filled the gaps as if nothing was lost. Jiang Ming couldn’t be bothered to explore and simply forced his way through using the Pocket World Projection.
All kinds of Space Corridors, spatial vortices, Spatial Folding, and so on, were suppressed into forming a straight pathway.
“For a powerful being of the Eleventh Realm, this would be a dead zone. Who would have thought that you would crush it so easily?” Holy Heart picked up a Space Source Stone, once again astounded, “That said, Brother Jiang, am I too much of a failure?”
“A failure?” Jiang Ming was taken aback and said helplessly, “Don’t compare yourself to me!”
“Yeah, I can’t compare to you!” Holy Heart gave him a glance, with a slight pout that seemed somewhat aggrieved, “I possess the purest Power of Light and also have the Sacred Dragon Bloodline, holding both the Light and Dragon Clan’s blood, which is not inferior to those so-called Demigod bloodlines. My comprehension can be called top-notch. I was incredibly arrogant before being plotted against by Lucifer, looking down on any creature of the same generation; even after being rescued and witnessing countless terrifying geniuses in the Death Forbidden Zone, I remained proud, feeling a sense of suppressing the same generation. But after hearing about your feats…”
She gave a wry smile, “I was shocked, and more than that, I was unwilling to accept defeat, believing I could catch up to you. I thought you were only strong because you obtained some supreme opportunity, simply getting a head start. But seeing you today was a real wake-up call, nearly devastating me. You, you truly are ‘Suppressing the ages, unparalleled,’ anyone who compares themselves to you is a fool. You have surpassed your generation, no, you have surpassed all generations.”
“Now I’m getting embarrassed from all your praise!” Jiang Ming blushed a little, complimented by such a beauty.
Having passed through the area of spatial mist, a cliff-like rupture appeared before them, for ahead there was only the Void. It was as if the earth had been cleaved in half out of nowhere, with land on one side and Void on the other.
The Void was vast and boundless, yet at its center was a mist vortex resembling a coffin in shape. A black hole at the heart of the vortex exuded an ominous aura.
Jiang Ming reached out and grabbed a strand of aura into his hand, remnants of Wang Qiutong’s presence.
“She actually entered there!”
Looking back at the land of mist, he was somewhat surprised.
If Wang Qiutong had crossed to this side relying on her own power, then her Cultivation level must be at least of the Eleventh Realm.
“The Eleventh Realm, huh? With her talents, and some opportunities, it’s not hard to reach,” Jiang Ming contemplated.
After all, Wang Qiutong was an Innate Path Body with unmatched comprehension and brilliance. Should she obtain some opportunities, her Cultivation would surely advance by leaps and bounds.
And she had also emerged from the Death Forbidden Zone.
“I sense an ominous air!” Holy Heart looked ahead, her heart filled with trepidation, “Brother Jiang, are we really going in?”
“Yes. Wang Qiutong should have entered there. What about you, want to join me?” Jiang Ming inquired.
“With you by my side, of course, I’ll join!” Holy Heart gritted her teeth.
“Haha, then let’s go!” With a laugh, Jiang Ming took hold of her arm and dashed toward the vortex.
