Chapter 431: Speedrunning Laws
He looked at the law in shock.
But after some time, he slowly calmed down as he understood how the law worked.
The law wasn’t really as it sounded. Well, it was, but not exactly. At the moment, it was just related to energy recovery and regeneration. But as his mastery rose, he might even be able to control things such as reincarnation.
Though he wasn’t really interested in reincarnating.
He moved on to the last bloodline, the Black Tortoise.
Aside from the dramatic increase in defense, it also gave him the Defense Law.
As for its second law, it was quite surprising. It was the Law of Karma. He hadn’t expected this at all. He also got the intrinsic Karmic Shield ability that allowed him to guard against bad karma and reflect it back to the attacker.
He thought to himself that this might be useful against the Sage, as she used a karma-related ability. Well, technically, it was causality, but the two should be related according to Li Yao’s recount of the events back then.
As he finished analyzing the benefits, the Stellar Physique was also finally completing its upgrade after a while.
The reactions inside his body intensified even more.
Xiang Yu smiled - the bloodlines were still getting stronger. He wondered if they could reach Primordial rank? He guessed probably not.
These bloodlines, although strong, might not be able to overcome the difference in power that easily. According to the Empress, even with lots of divine power, people were unable to upgrade their bloodlines past the Divine grade and assumed that this was probably the limit.
The only ones she guessed could have the Primordial bloodline were probably the Original Flames or other Original species.
"What are Original species?" Xiang Yu asked.
[They are those who were born in the beginning of chaos. It could be said that they were the first dwellers of the chaos,] the Empress explained.
"Have you ever seen one?" he asked.
[Of course not. I just know them from stories. It’s not known whether or not they’re real,] she said. [But they probably are, considering that the myth about the Sage Realm seems to be true. You even met the Original Void Flame, right?]
The Empress thought to herself that it looked as though all her knowledge was beginning to become useless with how rapidly the world was changing.
After the energy was restored, and increased even further because of the bloodline breakthrough and Stellar Constellation Physique breakthrough, his Absolute Source Law could finally be used again.
He wondered what law he should upgrade now. Since space was already upgraded due to the White Tiger, he decided to go with time. Before, he could upgrade two, and now that the energy cap had increased, he could probably do a few more. He wondered which domains he had that had yet to become laws.
They were time, fate, order, yin-yang, and combat.
He began with time. The law was slowly made from scratch as he watched on closely. Before long, it was complete.
[Time Law: Awakening (2,100,000/10,000,000)]
He smiled at this - the progress was really great. If he could make the other laws, he might even get his Absolute Source to the halfway point. He quickly moved on to the next law.
[Fate Law: Awakening (2,400,000/10,000,000)]
He felt he could still go on and chose another one.
[Order Law: Awakening (2,700,000/10,000,000)]
...
[Absolute Source Law: Awakening (2,900,000/10,000,000)]
Xiang Yu looked at his current progress. He thought to himself that with this, he was just two resets away from advancing. Too bad he couldn’t create another law today. He had failed to account for the high increase in energy requirement for the bloodlines’ nucleosynthesis after the upgrade.
Maybe after the next reset, he might be able to advance it.
Now that everything was done, he finally decided to inspect the reset screen.
He ignored body refining as he had already broken through to the sixtieth layer of Body Refining. Sixty-first now after the physique breakthrough. He couldn’t wait to test out his combat power.
The previous day, he had tested his power in the simulation and had realized it to be merely at the middle stages of Earth Immortal. But now, it was definitely going to be different. He could feel it.
He skipped his qi realm too, as it had already reached the tenth layer of Integration after the bloodline breakthrough and physique upgrade.
The reason it had advanced so much earlier was because he had finally used the Immortal-grade Chrysalis Pill, stimulating his root and using the chance to absorb lots of energy.
The only reason he hadn’t entered directly to the tenth layer was because he didn’t consume immortal food. He had been saving it for his wife. Besides, he had yet to create a bridge for his soul, so it would be a waste.
Even so, he decided to increase the clones for cooking.
He waved his hand and sixteen clones appeared. Ten went to join Xiang Li in cooking, two joined blacksmithing, another two joined alchemy, and the remaining two - one joined formation making and the other runesmithing.
He thought to himself that he could now condense twenty bloodline essences a day.
He decided to save the four for his beasts. He thought to himself that now that the bloodline was Divine level, if he gave them the bloodline, they would instantly go to the Immortal Realm with just a little help from him.
From there on, he would just need to preach to them every day after the exp doubling and they would advance in no time.
As he thought of this, he sensed something and his expression instantly soured. His wife had left just a little while after reset as planned, going to attempt her breakthrough.
It seems some pests have sensed this and are going to cause a commotion.
He waved his hand. Space shifted and Zhu Que appeared before him. She looked around her, wondering where she was. She then noticed Xiang Yu and quickly composed herself.
"I greet the lord," she said.
Xiang Yu stretched out his hand and a tentacle protruded, going and piercing into her body.
Xiang Yu then transferred the new Phoenix bloodline into her and also used his Growth Booster ability.
Instantly, she broke through to Soul Formation, Void Traversing, Integration, Tribulation, Mahayana. Because of Xiang Yu’s Transcendent Dao Body, he could force her not to ascend as well as reject the tribulation after the breakthrough. At the same time, her bloodline began taking effect and she gained both Fire and Reincarnation Laws, breaking through to the Earth Immortal realm.
Xiang Yu then retracted his tentacles and they disappeared into his body. "Some trash is hanging around where my wife is breaking through. Do you know what to do?" he asked.
She bowed. "Yes, my lord," she said.
Xiang Yu waved his hand and teleported her.
