212: Chapter 212 A Night of Discussion and Settlement of Battle Merits

Discussing the Dao on the spot was not merely a battle of words; it also involved hands-on demonstrations to showcase one's comprehension of the Dao.

At first, Hua Zizai did not pay much attention, assuming the other party had just achieved some initial success and was high-spirited, hence his extreme confidence.

He even leisurely picked up a Dragon Qi fruit and began to eat it unhurriedly.

But gradually, he realized something was wrong. He put down the fruit in his hand, his expression turning solemn.

The comprehension and analysis that Chen Xing spoke of far exceeded what this Domain contained; it was not even inferior to those great deities, and was even more profound than his own understanding.

"Did you comprehend all of this yourself?" Hua Zizai asked.

"Comprehending it is one thing, but whether one can fully Cultivate it is another." Chen Xing nodded slowly; he couldn't exactly say this was the result of the System's analysis.

"Good thinking. Continue." Hua Zizai nodded.

Immediately after, Chen Xing demonstrated his Grandmist Purple Light on the spot, resembling the hazy state of Origin Qi before the heavens and earth first opened.

Hua Zizai stared intently. The other party's Grandmist was not as powerful as his own, but in terms of attainments, he was already a step ahead, which was astonishing.

He had not expected that in this world, there could appear someone with a stronger Comprehension Ability than himself.

Thinking about it carefully, Chen Xing seemed to be less than fifty years old. If he could reach a Breakthrough to the Heavenly Position Realm before eighty or ninety, how astonishing would that be?

"It's your turn." Just as Hua Zizai was listening intently, Chen Xing stopped abruptly, leaving one wanting more.

"Hmm..." Hua Zizai fell into deep thought. Was there any need to talk about his own anymore?

"Speak yours. No matter what experience it is, perhaps it has reference value. Learning has no limits." Chen Xing said indifferently.

"Then I shall make a fool of myself." Hua Zizai nodded.

Although he spoke of his own comprehension, he did not demonstrate it on the spot; he couldn't help that.

"My method of Cultivation is an ancient Legacy from a Secret Realm; it is a special method of creating Clones." Hua Zizai explained.

"I have a total of twelve Clones, each corresponding to one of my Flower Spirits."

"Devour, Destruction, Three Flowers (Trinity), Slaughter, Elements, Yin and Yang, Order, Stars, Life and Death, Reincarnation, and Grandmist."

Hua Zizai said: "The Incarnation I am discussing the Dao with you with is the [Life and Death] Incarnation. It only has the power of the Life and Death Dao Flower, so I cannot manifest Grandmist to demonstrate for you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xing was somewhat amazed: "There is actually such a wonderful method in the world? Doesn't that mean you have twelve small combat entities?"

Hua Zizai shook his head: "It cannot be so Heaven-Defying. This Incarnation technique does not function for combat, but for Cultivation."

He said: "Once a Clone is manifested, my main body will also lose the corresponding ability, except for my Innate Divine Ability and Natal Treasure."

"I see." Chen Xing nodded.

This made sense. Otherwise, if he could retain his full strength, Hua Zizai would be equivalent to having another himself helping in battle; who could possibly rival him?

However, even so, this Heaven-Defying Incarnation Cultivation technique was still very astonishing. Perhaps it was a good Cultivation method?

Hua Zizai understood his meaning and said with slight regret: "The Legacy of external civilizations is very strict. Having sworn a Dao oath, I cannot impart it privately. Otherwise, I would have handed it over to the Alliance long ago."

Chen Xing was somewhat disappointed, but expressed understanding: "That's true. After all, their civilization also has its own rules."

"There is no need to be so pessimistic. The God Kings are also researching this magical Incarnation method. In the future, perhaps they can really create a set that belongs to the Esper Alliance." Hua Zizai comforted him.

"I'm afraid I can't wait that long. Within ten years, I will likely be able to make a Breakthrough." Chen Xing shook his head slightly.

"Is that being a bit too hasty?"

"Not hasty. I have the Dream Dao Cultivation method, which allows me to Cultivate in reality and the dream realm simultaneously, solidifying my Foundation without damaging my own Foundation."

"That is for the best."

"..."

A moment later, Hua Zizai formed seals with his hands, and a divine diagram appeared behind him.

It seemed to contain Heaven and Hell; one side was full of vitality, the other was dead and silent, representing the combination of Life and Death.

Immediately after, black and white Qi condensed. During this process, Hua Zizai actually employed tens of thousands of patterns to assist, finally condensing a small black and white flower.

"After listening to so much from you, I cannot take it for nothing. You can take this Life and Death Dao Flower seed to comprehend and Cultivate. It also contains one of my full-strength attacks; consider it a small bomb." Hua Zizai said.

"Good." Chen Xing did not stand on ceremony with him.

Holding it in his hand, he could feel a profound power of Life and Death; to think he could achieve such perfect balance.

Hua Zizai was truly worthy of being someone who had died once, and now trapped in a Forbidden Zone of life, who knows what else he had comprehended.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing asked: "You are trapped by a Quasi-King Formation; isn't that very bad?"

Hua Zizai's expression was calm: "It is fine. If they really wanted my life, I would have died long ago. That is merely a test from a Senior for later generations."

Chen Xing nodded: "Is that place really very dangerous, a Forbidden Zone that cannot be stepped into?"

Hua Zizai paused for two seconds before replying: "The so-called Forbidden Zone is only for those with insufficient Comprehension Ability and strength."

"The Thunder Pool Secret Realm is indeed full of Restrictions. Passing each level is a kind of assessment; success means life, failure means death."

"Although it is cruel, by the same token, as long as you pass the levels, no Formation or Restriction will trouble you. It can be said to be a paradise for the strong."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xing was somewhat tempted: "In that case, could I also go and try my luck?"

Unexpectedly, Hua Zizai actually thought about it seriously, and finally nodded: "You can!"

"If your ninth light is truly going to condense Chaos, take my advice: a Tribulation Transformation Realm body cannot withstand it, unless you abandon the Grandmist." He added.

"I have my own measure. You said that place has the legendary Chaos Green Lotus? A divine object; it couldn't be more suitable for me." Chen Xing nodded.

"As you wish. However, divine objects are hard to obtain; one must pass the final assessment. Currently, I am still at this level." Hua Zizai said.

Chen Xing was lost in thought: "Where is the location? I will ask my superiors for approval. I hope they will let me pass."

"It is at..."

"..."

The next day.

Chen Xing walked out of the room, left the place as if nothing had happened, and headed to the camp lobby.

"You finally arrived. The battle report is out; your performance yesterday was perfect." The Army Commander praised him.

"Everything you have done has been converted into Merit, which has already been deposited into your account. If you want to purchase any divine objects, just browse the Alliance store."

"Thank you, Commander." Chen Xing nodded, feeling somewhat tempted.

Out of curiosity, he opened his Optical Computer and logged into his account in this area, discovering that he actually had 100,000 Merit points.

One must know that slaying one enemy of the Tribulation Transformation Realm only yields ten Merit points, and a Heavenly Position Realm enemy yields one hundred.

Merit is also evaluated based on the Ability User's performance on the battlefield. Some people, although they did not slay opponents, saved many companions, which can also count as a highlight moment.

Chen Xing's trip this time was not just about killing enemies; he also relieved our army from siege. His performance was too brilliant to be hidden.

(Next, I need to go Cultivate and AFK for a bit; the plan is to make a Breakthrough within a few years.)

(Then it will be the strongest of the Human Alliance VS the strongest of the Demon Alliance. Chen Xing will go to confront stronger people, so his screen time might be a little less.)
