Zhou Tong's return as a Saint-level expert caused the entire Qing Hu Town to erupt in cheers. That day itself was a grand celebration.
However, Zhou Tong didn't stay in Qing Hu Town for long. He only added a portion of the Saint-level training content to the legacy of Qing Hu Town. At the same time, he also left one of his four Saint-level magical beasts, the Thunderbolt Panther, behind to guard Qing Hu Town.
After finishing these matters, Zhou Tong quickly led the remaining three Saint-level magical beasts out of Qing Hu Town. He returned to his residence and continued to train.
The second day after Zhou Tong returned to his residence, Linley, having received the news, brought Bebe to the place where Zhou Tong usually trained – the mountain behind the Baruch Academy of Magic and Force.
"Linley, what a rare guest!" Zhou Tong greeted Linley.
"Kahn, where have you been these past few years? And these Saint-level magical beasts? "Linley stared with some astonishment at the three Saint-level magical beasts by Zhou Tong's side.
"I made a trip to the War God's College, and then spent a few years training in the Mountain Range of the Setting Sun. I imagine you have a piece of this as well! " Zhou Tong casually took out a crimson talisman and waved it in front of Linley. "As for Saint-level magical beasts, as a Grand Magus Saint, subduing a few Saint-level magical beasts shouldn't be a problem for me, right?"
"You got this as well? That's right. Given your power, eight years ago, you should have been able to get it. "Linley was surprised at first, but then he nodded.
Indeed, his power was enough for him to get this talisman.
"However, when you went to the War God's College, did you spar with any of the War God's disciples?" Linley was somewhat curious. In order to obtain this talisman, one had to display one's power. Zhou Tong had never made a name for himself, so naturally, he could be considered a nobody. At this time, he would definitely have to spar with the War God's College.
"I'm guessing that you definitely want to ask me if I fought against Fain!" Zhou Tong laughed.
By now, Linley's human form had already reached the Saint-level. Within the War God's College, the only person who truly caught Linley's attention was the Prime Saint, Fain.
"I exchanged two blows with Fain. He lost!" Zhou Tong said casually.
"Fain has lost!" Linley was stunned. Although he knew that he was no longer the same as he had been in the past, he still didn't feel too confident in his ability to face Fain.
However, Fain had been defeated in merely two moves?
"Fain is a Prime Saint. How could he have been defeated so easily?" Linley didn't dare believe it.
"Although there are tens of thousands of paths on the path of Laws, each path has its own level of superiority. Although Fain is at the limits of the Saint-level, his Dao path is very weak, far inferior to mine. Thus, even though I have yet to reach my limits, my power is still above his. "Zhou Tong said leisurely.
"The difference in the path of Laws!" Linley was silent for a moment, then nodded.
He agreed with this reasoning, because Linley firmly believed that his own understanding of the Profound Truths of the Earth was superior to others'.
"However, I imagine that you didn't come here today to talk about these things!" Zhou Tong looked at Linley and asked.
Linley said, "Today, I came to spar with you. Ever since a few months ago, when my Throbbing Pulse of the World reached the two hundred and fifty-sixth cycle, I was unable to improve any further. Since you have also mastered the Throbbing Pulse of the World, perhaps a spar will allow me to see the path ahead. "
"A few months ago, I came here to look for you, but you weren't here. Recently, when I learned that you had returned, I immediately came!" Linley continued.
"My Throbbing Pulse of the World is inferior to yours. It's only at the hundred and eighth cycle. My Dao path is to fuse the power and life force that I have comprehended into my Throbbing Pulse, causing each Throbbing Pulse to become even more powerful. A single Throbbing Pulse is equivalent to ten of your Throbbing Pulse, allowing each Throbbing Pulse to last longer, so that there won't be any losses in the transmission process. "
Zhou Tong shook his head, rejecting Linley's request to spar.
Given Zhou Tong's current power, let alone a hundred and eight Throbbing Pulse, even if he only used twenty Throbbing Pulse, he would be able to defeat Linley's attack while also heavily injuring him.
After all, the current Linley had yet to embark on the path of the Throbbing Pulse of the World.
"A single cycle of your Throbbing Pulse is equivalent to ten of my Throbbing Pulse?" Linley didn't dare to believe it.
"Then you'll know once you try! Try and use your Thirty Throbbing Pulse to block my Triple Throbbing Pulse. "Zhou Tong flicked his finger, and instantly, a Throbbing Pulse shot towards Linley.
This was merely the most basic Triple Throbbing Pulse of the World. Of course, Zhou Tong's Triple Throbbing Pulse was a fusion of the Profound Mysteries of Strength and Life.
Linley raised his hand, using his Thirty Throbbing Pulse of the World as well, hoping to block Zhou Tong's attack.
But as soon as they came into contact, Linley's face instantly changed. This was because he could sense that although his opponent's Throbbing Pulse was only a simple Triple Throbbing Pulse, it was superior to his own Throbbing Pulse in both power and toughness. His Thirty Throbbing Pulse could only temporarily block it. It was impossible for it to cancel it out.
"Rumble!"
In the next moment, Linley exploded with his battle-qi, instantly erupting with Sixty Throbbing Pulse. Only then was he able to block Zhou Tong's simple Triple Throbbing Pulse.
"Your Throbbing Pulse is so much stronger than mine? Is it really that powerful after fusing with your Dao path? " Linley was very stunned. If this sort of attack really did have 108 Throbbing Pulses, who could possibly block it?
"I've walked a total of three Daos in the Laws of the Earth, but I've discovered that different Daos can be fused together. Every time I fuse a Dao path, my power will increase by roughly ten times. I've fused three Daos. Just in terms of foundation, I'm a hundred times stronger than you. My 108 Throbbing Pulses are comparable to at least ten thousand of yours … "
"…" Linley was rather speechless.
But then, he grew rather downcast. "Does the Throbbing Pulse of the World really have ten thousand Throbbing Pulses? Why is it that after 256 Throbbing Pulses, I can't increase it any further? "
"If you can't increase it any further after 256 Throbbing Pulses, then it's very likely that this is the limit of the Throbbing Pulse of the World." Zhou Tong said leisurely. "But if this is the limit of the Throbbing Pulse of the World, why don't you think of a way to strengthen every single Throbbing Pulse?"
"Like you, fusing with other Daos?" Linley asked.
"No. You can try fusing the 256 Throbbing Pulses into one, reducing them to 128 Throbbing Pulses, and then further reducing them to 64 Throbbing Pulses, 32 Throbbing Pulses, 16 Throbbing Pulses … in the end, you can even fuse all of the Throbbing Pulses into one, using the simplest Throbbing Pulse to contain all 256 Throbbing Pulses." Zhou Tong reminded him.
"Two, two, one!"
These words were like a clap of thunder in Linley's mind. A hint of understanding instantly appeared in his eyes, followed by a burst of wild joy. "That's right. That's it. If the Throbbing Pulse of the World continues, it will return to one. A single, simplest Throbbing Pulse of the World contains all 256 Throbbing Pulses!"
"Kahn, thank you. You've done me a huge favor!" Linley was overjoyed and immediately expressed his thanks.
"Right, Kahn, there's one more thing!" Linley suddenly thought of something. Looking at the Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops by Zhou Tong's side, Linley said, "I hope that I can borrow some blood from these Saint-level Dragons of yours!"
"That's fine with me. But whether or not they agree will depend on your own ability!" Zhou Tong laughed.
Although they had signed a master-servant contract, they were still his subordinates. If he were to casually lend blood to an outsider, it would be disrespectful to these Saint-level magical beasts.
Linley, if you want dragon blood, then you have to do it yourself and convince these two dragons!
"Haha, no problem!" Seeing that Zhou Tong had no objections, Linley immediately laughed.
Saint-level magical beasts were all very proud, especially Saint-level Dragons. If he wanted to make these Saint-level Dragons obediently give up some blood, the only way was to use power. He would use absolute power to beat them until they were convinced.
