Seven Hundred Chapters
Breaking through to Law Emperor
Xia Fei ended the call with Hyacinth and called Moon Song.
Xia Fei had a lot of headaches when it came to Moon Song. The flamboyant and unruly Moon Song often spouted nonsense, causing Xia Fei's face to turn red, yet she did not seem to care at all.
Xia Fei would usually avoid interacting with Moon Song unless there were special circumstances, afraid that she would come up with some crazy idea. Most people in his circle of friends thought that Xia Fei was a troublesome person, but Moon Song was publicly acknowledged to be even more troublesome than Xia Fei.
On the screen, Moon Song was not chewing on a cucumber as she usually did. On the contrary, she had a serious expression on her face. She was crouching and hiding under a parasol tree, looking around from time to time.
Are you alright? Xia Fei asked, somewhat surprised.
What do you think? Moon Song rolled her eyes at Xia Fei.
Xia Fei was speechless and asked awkwardly, What are you doing? Who are you hiding from? "
Moon Song clenched her teeth and said hatefully, "There's a detestable fellow in the clan who's been pestering me all day. He's come knocking on my door so early in the morning. How hateful! A lack of sleep is fatal for a girl. She will age very quickly. "
Xia Fei smiled. "Lady Yue, this doesn't seem like your style. I remember there was a guy who pestered you back in the Heaven Execution Camp, and you ended up using an illusion on him, almost causing him to die from ejaculation. I'm afraid that this one won't be easy to deal with, or else you wouldn't be hiding."
Moon Song was an expert in illusions. Torturing someone into a state that was neither human nor ghost was Moon Song's specialty. How could that youth from the Heaven Execution Camp know how powerful she was? He was forcibly trapped by her illusions, dreaming for three days and three nights. When he woke up, he had lost over ten kilograms! His entire body collapsed, and he no longer looked human. It was clear how vicious Moon Song was.
Moon Song sighed, looking at Xia Fei with a hint of resentment. I don't care. You have to help me out of this predicament when you return. Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. Don't worry, what you asked me to do won't go wrong. "
Pa!
Without further ado, Moon Song turned off the call.
Xia Fei was speechless. Moon Song had asked him to help her get rid of another man. Xia Fei felt a chill run down his spine when he thought about it. He had promised Moon Song that he would accept one of her requests unconditionally.
Don't tell me you want me to marry her? Xia Fei muttered to himself.
…
Collecting his thoughts, Xia Fei sat cross-legged.
Lionheart Emperor Oro sternly said, "The most important thing right now is to break through, to break through the Law Emperor barrier! Everyone below the Law Emperor is but an ant. In this world where the strong are revered, only constant self-improvement is the right path. "
"Once you become a Law Emperor, you'll receive countless preferential treatment and care. Don't be fooled by the fact that you're currently a level 9 Law Sovereign, only one step away from becoming a Law Emperor, but the difference in treatment is like night and day. Law Emperors have immunity, so if a Law Emperor gets into a conflict with an ordinary Law Warrior and the Law Emperor kills the other in a fit of rage, he won't be punished too severely. At most, he'll just have to pay compensation. "
"After all, Law Emperors are the main combat strength of the Law Realm. With the two peak races in a standoff, no race will easily kill off their powerful warriors, so it's only natural that they receive preferential treatment."
Xia Fei nodded, expressing his understanding of the old demon lord's words.
Of course, a Law Emperor like Seth was not on the list of protection, for he was someone from the Exiled Grounds, a remnant citizen. The Law Enforcement Board would not protect the interests of remnant citizens, and they were more than happy to see the Exiled Grounds slaughtered and looted.
As the Exiled Grounds gradually grew stronger over the years, it had already become the third largest community outside of the two peak races. Though it could not pose a threat to the two races now, that might not necessarily be the case in the future. Thus, the two races had always harbored killing intent toward the Exiled Grounds.
Oro paused for a moment before continuing. "You're currently wanted by the Law Enforcement Board, and you've been wrongly accused. The faction behind Yuhua is very powerful, and they might have people in the Law Enforcement Board. The moment they discover you, they can kill you on the spot, not even giving you a chance to argue.
"However, if you're a Law Emperor, you won't be silenced so easily. The Law Enforcement Board doesn't have the authority to kill a Law Emperor so casually, so they can only invite you to be investigated. The investigation process must be made public to the entire Law Realm, and anyone who wants to wrongly accuse a Law Emperor must be prepared to face the wrath of a higher power. That's why I said that being a Law Emperor will be your protective talisman, and it'll be of great help to you."
Xia Fei took a deep breath, his brows furrowed. "I understand what you're saying. Tomorrow, Hyacinth will spread the evidence I have to the entire Law Realm. That's the signal to start an all-out war with Yuhua!
"When the time comes, the powerful faction behind Yuhua will surely surface to cover for Yuhua, and they'll do everything they can to get rid of me, a thorn in their side. If they don't protect Yuhua, there's a high chance that Yuhua will bite me out of it, and it won't be appropriate for them to give up on Yuhua as a sacrificial pawn. Those who are loyal to the rich and powerful like Yuhua will inevitably be bitterly disappointed, and they won't wholeheartedly work for the organization."
The old demon lord laughed heartily. "That's a good analysis. Once you throw out the evidence, those big shots behind the scenes will have to protect Yuhua even if they don't want to. It's not up to them, for you've chosen the perfect timing. The storm caused by the deaths of Yujiang and his granddaughter has yet to subside, and Yuhua's ceremony to become the patriarch will surely be watched closely by all parties. By throwing a powerful bomb at this moment, it'll surely cause quite a large impact.
"First of all, there's the Law Enforcement Board. Yuhua's appointment as the patriarch requires them to confirm his aptitude, which means that the Law Enforcement Board has absolutely no doubts about Yuhua. Only then will they agree to let him succeed as the patriarch. Those big shots must've spent a lot of manpower and energy on this matter, but you overturned everything in the end. It's like a slap in the face. Everyone involved has been slapped in the face by you."
Xia Fei shrugged and helplessly said, "Actually, I don't want to offend the Law Enforcement Board, but given the current situation, I don't have any other choice but to make a big deal out of this. The person behind Yuhua is very powerful, practically covering the sky with one hand. Even small fights will be suppressed by him, and it won't cause too much of a stir unless I make a big deal out of it, to the point where even that big shot can't suppress it anymore. Only then will I have a chance at survival."
Oro fell into deep thought, nodding as he sighed. "Fighting with your back against the wall, putting yourself on the brink of death to come back to life. Your courage is certainly commendable, but after this ruckus you've caused, many people will lose face. The more powerful a person is, the more they care about their face. If you push these fellows into a corner, they'll use whatever methods they can to take you down, regardless of the consequences. It's not entirely impossible.
"In any case, this bomb of yours is too powerful, too vicious, and the area of effect is too large. There's no way to predict what will happen. I can already smell a storm brewing. After tomorrow, I'm afraid that there'll be a hurricane!"
…
With the Blood Swallow Gem in hand, Xia Fei cleared his mind of all distracting thoughts and began wholeheartedly on his path to promotion.
According to Lionheart Emperor Oro's guidance, Xia Fei decided to use the most conservative method to break through the barrier. He would directly absorb the energy of the Blood Swallow Gem, using the energy to constantly wash away the barrier, breaking through layer by layer, and finally making his breakthrough!
"The Blood Swallow Gem won't give you too much of a violent energy. Its output will be gentle and effective. You'll need to simultaneously control the Law Totem, the accumulated energy in your brain region, and the energy that the Blood Swallow Gem will give you. This requires extraordinary control, and as long as you can control all of this, the breakthrough will be right in front of you," the old demon lord warned Xia Fei once more.
Xia Fei firmly nodded. He closed his eyes, holding the Blood Swallow Gem in his left hand as he entered a meditative state.
He was not in a hurry to absorb the energy of the Blood Swallow Gem. Instead, he drew the familiar pattern in his mind again and again, combing through his seventh brain region, trying to use the energy stored in his brain region.
This energy came from the two Great Law Emperors, Colin and Quinn. Though it was much quieter after Xia Fei refined it, it was still not as obedient as Xia Fei's own energy body. When he used it, there would be some violent energy mixed in.
* Phew ~ *
Xia Fei let out a long sigh. The breakthrough would begin now!
Xia Fei slowly extracted that multicolored ball of energy in his seventh brain region like it was a ball of yarn. Xia Fei slowly pulled out the energy, and at the same time, the Blood Swallow Gem in his left hand also unleashed its power. A dark red strand of energy quickly entered his seventh brain region, merging with the energy stored in Xia Fei's brain region and becoming one. Then, it rushed toward the bottleneck like an army of thousands of horses!
The energy brought by the Blood Swallow Gem was very subtle. After the dark red energy mixed with the other energies, it produced a shocking transformation. It was like a small stream that was originally clear and devoid of fish, but after the addition of the Blood Swallow Gem, there were now countless cunning loaches in the river.
Faced with the obstruction of the dam, the river water gently washed over it, and those loaches were madly gnawing away, using their teeth to bite and their heads to ram! Wave upon wave, it was an endless stream!
Xia Fei was shocked. It turned out that this was the secret of the Blood Swallow Gem!
The bottleneck inherent in cultivation was like food for the Blood Swallow Gem. It would eat up all the stones that stood in the way of advancement, piece by piece!
The old demon lord smugly laughed. "Do you understand now? This is the Blood Swallow Gem! There's no bottleneck that can stop it. It's just that the difficulty of the bottleneck is different and the time it takes to overcome the Blood Swallow Gem. "
Xia Fei was still anxiously trying to break through, so he did not answer Oro. In truth, it was not appropriate for Oro to speak carelessly like this. A warrior with a slightly weaker mind could easily be influenced by the environment and commit a grave mistake.
Based on Xia Fei's observations, it seemed like the old demon lord was intentionally talking to him while he was advancing, to increase the difficulty of Xia Fei's advancement?!
Fortunately, Xia Fei's mind was firm, and he was not affected by Oro's words.
The path of breaking through was long and tortuous. After all, this was the Law Emperor realm, and the difficulty far exceeded the sum of all the previous bottlenecks. Even with the help of the Blood Swallow Gem, Xia Fei could only advance step by step, advancing bit by bit with great difficulty.
Time passed second by second, and Xia Fei began to familiarize himself with the properties of the Blood Swallow Gem. How to link it with the energy stored in his brain region also became easier, and everything was progressing in a good direction. Based on Xia Fei's current speed, he only needed three days to break through the Law Emperor realm!
