311: Imperial conferment of a military uniform!
Extreme Realm!
This was a concept Ye Su had never encountered before.
Martial Arts, Moves, Secret Techniques, blood qi, Spiritual Qi—and so on.
Everything followed a traceable path, advancing according to specific rules and routes; everything was bound within those rules.
However, in this Grass Grid World, the Martial Dao had another form of ultimate expression.
That was the Extreme Realm!
It shared similarities with Transcendence.
Surpassing limits was its hallmark!
“Extreme Realm, Transcendence—”
“The Ascension Path can achieve Transcendence, and Martial Arts can do the same.”
“So... how should I do it?”
Ye Su pondered. The words on the pamphlet were few and far between.
They were even a jumbled mess, yet they faintly revealed a special intent.
“I understand Martial Arts True Intent.”
“But the intent conveyed by this pamphlet doesn't seem to be Martial Arts True Intent; it's more like Martial Dao True Intent!”
The Ascension Path was grand, while the Martial Dao was extremely narrow, even narrowing down to the intent of a single Martial Arts discipline.
The forbidden path was narrow, but the Martial Dao was grand, with Martial Dao True Intent boosting all Martial Arts.
And what Ye Su was currently in contact with was the grand Ascension Path combined with... the grand Martial Dao.
The Extreme Realm was the ancient world's supplement to the narrowness of the forbidden path.
He just didn't know what kind of sparks would fly when this broad Dao met the even wider Ascension system.
“Extreme Realm?”
Lu Yiyi poked her cute head out and looked at the pamphlet in Ye Su's hand.
She only took a quick glance.
She came from an orthodox Great Clan and possessed a firm mind.
Her Dao Heart would not be affected by Martial Arts from such an ancient era.
“Ye Su, just taking a look is fine. Heaven knows if you can actually train anything out of this stuff.”
Lu Yiyi said,
“Some things from the ancient world are already outdated.”
“It's not that everything is better just because it's older.”
She had a point; the universe was always bringing forth the new from the old. Many things were constantly iterating, becoming stronger with each iteration.
Ye Su nodded, not really taking Lu Yiyi's words to heart.
Instead, he continued to study.
Martial Arts True Intent.
It seemed his horizons were gradually broadening, and some small ideas were forming.
‘Back when the Blue Star achieved Unity of Heaven and Man, the blue star will took me to observe the heavens and walk the seas to grasp what was in my heart.’
‘In fact, if my heart contains the world, then I don't need the blue star will to help me; I can simulate all things in existence myself.’
‘Perhaps this intent of containing the world in one's heart is the Martial Arts True Intent of this world.’
‘And when your gaze begins to focus, condensing the vast world into a single point, that is—the Extreme Realm!’
Ye Su was engrossed.
One could only say that one's own things were the most delicious.
Ye Su had a premonition that perhaps this Extreme Realm would be his greatest gain since coming to the Calamity Chaos.
With the foundation of his previous insights,
it was only when he truly focused his gaze on the Extreme Realm
that he gradually understood the importance of weapons to him.
‘The two minds meet, sensing each other—’
Ye Su tilted his head.
Wait.
My equipment itself has a subconscious.
As long as I have a thought, the equipment naturally senses it.
So.
Is the way to reach the Extreme Realm a bit too simple?
This guy Ye Su.
He had no idea how great a foundation for the Dao the universe's system was for him, who had opened the door to the Extreme Realm!
In the past, the hardest part of the Extreme Realm was resonating with the weapon.
In the universe,
because of the emergence of equipment, it had paradoxically become the easiest part!
The long saber appeared in his hand.
With a thought from Ye Su, the long saber vibrated gently.
‘Could it be because it hasn't been Enfeoffed yet, so it's not enough?’
Ye Su was curious.
Yes.
He now had another chance for Enfeoffment.
The Blue Star and Martial Arts had already been Enfeoffed.
Next was the equipment!
Just as he was thinking about how to find an opportunity to Enfeoff the equipment, he heard the sound of howling from outside.
Wooo wooo wooo—“Go!”
Lu Yiyi's expression changed, and she hurried out the door.
Ye Su followed closely behind.
Rushing out of the Martial Arts hall and looking into the distance,
his scalp instantly went numb.
The entire Flesh and Blood City was glowing.
As the ground shook—it, it was standing up.
“Everyone pay attention, enter the Formation, enter the Formation!”
“Enter the Formation!”
“Enter the Formation!”
Roaring voices spread throughout the Flesh and Blood City.
Countless people emerged from their houses.
Zhang Huai led the Disciples of the Martial Arts hall toward the city wall. When he passed Ye Su, he nodded to him.
Yes.
He wouldn't care what Ye Su was going to do.
After all, Great Master You Gu had already stated clearly that he was here to walk the forbidden path. Therefore, no matter what choice he made, there was a reason for it.
No need to interfere.
If he needed anything, just cooperate directly.
Next was You Gu.
The old man You Gu had a smile on his face, a smile of gratification, as if he were watching one of his juniors grow up.
Ye Su's heart tightened, as if something had been touched.
“Let's go—”
After You Gu left, Lu Yiyi pulled Ye Su and said,
“A big battle is about to break out here. Let's hurry and collect some things to see if there are any resources or the like.”
“Okay.”
Ye Su responded.
But he moved his feet slowly. They felt so heavy; his steps in the opposite direction suddenly became very heavy.
‘These are just images of the past, Ye Su, what are you doing?’
He roared in his heart.
These were images of the past, facts that had long been established.
It was meaningless.
Staying in the present, searching for resources, and strengthening oneself was the right way.
But—“Lu Yiyi, you go look for resources. I'm going to check out the battlefield.”
“What are you going to see?”
“I've had a Breakthrough in my Martial Dao. I'm going to see if I can gain anything.”
“Alright then.”
Lu Yiyi replied.
These past few days, Ye Su had been looking at that pamphlet like he was possessed. Perhaps he really had gained some insight into the Martial Dao.
Ye Su turned around.
His steps suddenly became light.
The battlefield, the battlefield.
Here I come.
Wait for me!
—“Kill!”
Countless strangely-shaped creatures swirled around the flesh-and-blood giant city, fighting.
They wanted to break through the Formation's defenses and rush into the city.
The city walls were where the most exaggerated fighting took place.
Countless people shed blood upon them.
“Heavens Will Strike!”
Ye Su didn't care and fully unleashed his combat power.
Like a bolt of lightning, he instantly stood atop the city wall.
The terrifying power of the Heavens' Will's blessing pulverized all the Bizarre Creatures on half of the city wall.
Countless people looked over.
Zhang Huai was even more astonished.
Ye Su was actually this powerful.
This power, which seemed to transcend Martial Arts, was too strong.
Could it be that this was the forbidden path?
‘As expected, he didn't come to open it, but to promote it. Good lad!’
You Gu was happy in his heart.
The boys of his own house were always so great!
With his long saber held high,
Ye Su roared,
“Kill them all!”
“Kill them all!”
“Kill them all!”
Countless people echoed him.
With a strong leader, morale was always high.
And taking this opportunity,
Ye Su was going to Enfeoff his equipment.
The Extreme Realm.
Perhaps it was right here.
Fighting side-by-side with comrades from the distant past within time.
That boiling blood would ignite his understanding of the Extreme Realm!
