Chapter 702 - Comprehending Laws

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The focus point for the top three competitors was of course, a competition for the championship. Although the difference between the rewards of first and second place were slightly different, in fact, they were comparable. All would get one Supreme Dao Fruit and that was the most important reward. The only difference was whether you got Supreme Dao armor or a weapon.

The championship was what all seventy-four participants who had signed up for the ordeal competition longed for. Now, seventy-one of those warriors had all been disqualified.

Only three people had remained. Deep inside the heart of these three, they were determined to rise to the top. If they could not seize the championship, the difference between second and third place would be meaningless.

“Master, Dark Mysterious Snake is already in position!”

“Purple Pupil Golden Ox, Burning Explosive Tiger are already in position!”

“Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon, in position!”

Whoosh!

Like lightning flashing across the rim of the sky, Qin Wushuang shot forward through the sky. For this battle, regardless of success or failure, Qin Wushuang would exert all his efforts.

At one of the remote corners of the ninth island, Ling Tianzhi suddenly opened his eyes. With a pull, he grabbed a white flag with his hand.

With the little flag on his hand, he rocked it a few times from left to right. Suddenly, the spiritual Qi presence surrounding Ling Tianzhi had become rich, as ripples of blue water emerged in the sky.

While the water ripples rocked lightly, with one look, one seemed to be within the water. Yet in fact, these water ripples were only an illusion of gas that mimicked a liquid-like state.

These ripples were a sign of Ling Tianzhi’s defense formation. With the formation flag in his hand, Ling Tianzhi could see all abnormal movements within the entire defense zone through the movement of the water ripples.

Suddenly, Ling Tianzhi’s eyes moved, but he continued moving the little flag with his hand. A sly smile emerged from the corner of his mouth. “Again? This kid, is really not giving up? It seems he can no longer contain himself. Humph, it’s already the last three days. Let’s determine the victory at the tenth island!”

Ling Tianzhi rocked back and forth and a surging translucent ball of light filled the space. The speckling stars instantly swallowed Ling Tianzhi’s body.

Immediately after, Ling Tianzhi’s body disappeared into the sky.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Three or four figures shot over the spot he vanished from fiercely in succession.

“No, master, that guy has run away again!”

“Darn it! He ran away again!”

When the four Exquisite Mysterious Boundary spiritual beasts approached, they realized that Ling Tianzhi had disappeared from their attack point.

Qin Wushuang shot from the sky and dropped onto the ground. As he sensed the presence left by Ling Tianzhi, he displayed an incredibly discontent expression. The perception of this Ling Tianzhi was too powerful. Qin Wushuang had exerted all his force. Unexpectedly, he still let this guy escape one step ahead.

From the Observant Finger Jade Plate, Ling Tianzhi had fled with full force and was at least a hundred miles away from him.

Qin Wushuang bit his teeth. “Go after him!”

Although they had let this Ling Tianzhi escape, Qin Wushuang had the Observant Finger Jade Plate. It would not be a problem to track Ling Tianzhi.

Only, for such a game of chase, it would be tough to see who would win or lose. Although Qin Wushuang had the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings and held some advantages over speed, due to the arduous terrain of this island, clearly the game of chase was not just a competition of pure speed. One must consider the geographical region and other dangerous factors.

Ling Tianzhi was as light as a swallow and had a unique flying skill. Although it was not as majestic as the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings, his flying skills had an incredibly subtle relationship with the profoundness of the space. He would sense almost no resistance with the air in space.

This was the difference between Qin Wushuang and Ling Tianzhi.

Qin Wushuang was at the Perfect Void Martial Stage. After all, he could not shattered the void. Clearly, his comprehension of space principals were less than that of Ling Tianzhi. His absolute fastest speed relied on the traveling ability of the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings.

For Ling Tianzhi, although he could not match Qin Wushuang in terms of speed, his comprehension of space principals was indeed, incredibly understood. He could reduce the resistance of the air in the sky to make for easy travel.

This way, the two of them could almost be considered equal.

In fact, Ling Tianzhi was also feeling incredibly annoyed inwardly. With his personality, being chased and hunted by another warrior was not part of his plan. On the contrary, he was more used to hunting down his own opponents.

However, the disqualification of the other warriors had created tremendous pressure for Ling Tianzhi. If it were during usual times, he would never be afraid of fighting head on.

However, for this battle, it concerned the Supreme Dao Fruit. No matter how Ling Tianzhi was unwilling, he must treat this situation with importance.

Therefore, he had chosen with grievance and for the greater outcome to evade the battle!

If an elite warrior at the Peak of the Common Mysterious was unwilling to fight, Qin Wushuang realized that it would be extremely tough to chase after them! After Qin Wushuang had initiated his speed to its max a few times, he still could not shorten the distance between him and Ling Tianzhi. Now Qin Wushuang had learned the difference between the two. Indeed, he must treat it with more importance.

While Qin Wushuang and Ling Tianzhi were in an endless chasing game, Jiang Kui from the Eastern One Horned Mountain Dragon Clan was inside the water zone of the Illusion Heavenly Lake leisurely. He was enjoying the stability and the joy the water brought to him.

Jiang Kui’s pair of green eyebrows raised upwards casually. There was a slight mocking smile from the corner of his mouth as he mumbled to himself, “Let these two idiots kill each other. The final result would be to die together. Ha ha ha. Having the identity and belonging to a dragon clan is great. I have so much more freedom in this water than on the island.”

Initially, this Jiang Kui was not even on the island. On the contrary, he found a water area on the edge of the island and found an incredible comfortable place to ignore the war between Ling Tianzhi and Qin Wushuang. He had intended to watch the fire burning from the shore. Since Jiang Kui had come from the Eastern One Horned Mountain Dragon, his survival skills in the water were certainly much better than that of Qin Wushuang or Ling Tianzhi.

On the island, perhaps Jiang Kui would not dare to claim to be number one. Yet inside the water, among all the competition candidates, he would dare claim to be number one.

In the Endless Eastern Sea, the Eastern Sea One Horned Mountain Dragon was absolutely the most revered. This Jiang Kui was the most exceptional among the Endless Eastern Sea young generation. He was similar to Xin Wuji among the Xuan Yuan Mound.

Inside the Endless Eastern Sea, besides the True Dragon Nine Clans and the Non-Traditional Nine Clans, the other totem powerhouses were all the Origin Dragon Clan. The so-called, Origin Dragon Clan, was the dragon clan from the immemorial period. They were the dragon clan with the purest bloodline!

As two days had passed, only one day was left from the finishing time of the ninth island, yet Qin Wushuang had not given up of chasing Ling Tianzhi.

In truth, Qin Wushuang already knew that chasing and catching Ling Tianzhi was extremely difficult and almost impossible to accomplish.

However, Qin Wushuang had not given up. Initially, he wanted to give Ling Tianzhi enough pressure and influence his mentality in the next level.

Additionally, during this chasing battle, Qin Wushuang was finding great joy. Especially when resisting Ling Tianzhi, an elite warrior at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage, it allowed him to gain a more profound understanding of space principals.

In these six months, he had made it through nine islands. Qin Wushuang had never given up on the comprehension of space rules, the principal of shattering the sky.

Therefore, upon having developed up to this point, he saw chasing Ling Tianzhi as refining himself. Besides, by using this training, it had given him a clearer outlook towards the path of the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage.

Qin Wushuang enjoyed this feeling very much.

When at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, he had refined the Sky Pilfered Pill at once and entered the Perfect Void Martial Stage. Through more than six months of work, Qin Wushuang had initially thought that it would not be as fast to break into the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage.

Although within this half a month, within the Illusion Heavenly Lake islands, the training environment was numerous times better than the outside world. This had encouraged Qin Wushuang’s training speed to develop at an astonishing speed.

At this moment, Qin Wushuang had realized he was only one step away from that Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage.

Inside Qin Wushuang’s heart, an ambition had formed. He desired to acquire a qualitative jump off during this war of chase, to enter the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage at once!

If he could enter the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage, even if he had not defeated the enemies at this ninth island, he would be definitely successful.

The sun gradually rose from the east. Currently, Qin Wushuang, who was flying above the Illusion Heavenly Lake, saw a pile of mist at the end of the boundless Illusion Heavenly Lake. It appeared like a fairyland and the golden sunlight penetrated this boundless water as if it could pierce the vault of heaven.

Qin Wushuang’s spiritual perception was also full of brilliance. It was as if a giant door had opened to accept this trace of sunlight from this world.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, Qin Wushuang dropped off. Whether he faced success or defeat, it had all deposited deep inside his heart. This beam of light seemed to directly shoot deep inside Qin Wushuang’s heart. All of a sudden, a sense of inspiration blossomed like a lotus flower, exhibiting extreme grandness and holiness.

“Among the three thousand Great Dao laws of nature, all vegetation, a beam of light, a drop of rain, a surge of lightning, a beaming breeze, all shared the law of nature. The operations of the natural law would come from the fortune of the law. The ones that obey the law live, while the ones that defy the law die… Is this a so-called natural law?”

The beam of sunlight seemed to directly open a giant door deep inside the heart of Qin Wushuang and awaken his soul.

As one finds their true self, only then can one merge with the Genuine Dao.

If the heart of the being was dark, it would not meet with the natural law.

When one’s heart goes dark, one would not be able to find their true disposition. Naturally, one would not see into the heavenly law. Just as that heart devil, with it inside, the Supreme Dao would be too far to reach.

Ever since Qin Wushuang had stepped into the world of martial arts, it was the first time he profoundly comprehended the word “Dao”. It could be everywhere, yet nowhere to be seen.

Dao was within one’s heart and inside any of the details of boundless space.

Suddenly enlightened, Qin Wushuang was already mesmerized within it.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already dusk. The sun still lingered as morning brought peace to one’s heart. Qin Wushuang felt as though his whole person had undergone a baptism for he felt incredibly joyful.

He knew that he had already opened the door of spiritual perception. All the ingredients were ready and he was prepared to break into the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage. He would only need that final stretch.

At the same time, the thirty days on the ninth island had passed like this. Through this ninth island, five people had entered with only three remaining.

Lu Qingchuan was fifth and Qin Taichong was fourth place. The rankings were already determined.

The battle for top three has been set and was heating up. Exactly as the host had expected, the ranking of the top three would be determined at the tenth island!
