Chapter 1007: Sword Embryo, Request
To push the Primary Extreme Sword Art from mid-state to late-state of star domain-level in just 600 years had exceeded Li Fuchen’s expectations. He thought he would be having a hard time to breakthrough even within 1000 years.
“The World Fruit truly lives up to its fame. However, I believe very few know that they must first obtain the approval of the World Fruit before being able to enter the World Fruit to cultivate. It is 100 times faster to comprehend the World Fruit from the inside.”
The World Fruit was too rare, even rarer than the World Leaf. Without enough perception, one could only make do with time. Perhaps after comprehending the World Fruit for 1000 or 100 million years, they might be able to obtain the approval of the World Fruit. But of course, they might spend a lifetime and still wouldn’t be able to obtain the World Fruit’s approval.
Inside the universe, apart from fated opportunities, one had to possess strength. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even be able to grab hold of the opportunities.
“There is still 400 years left before the agreement of 1000 years with the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor. I must not waste it.”
Li Fuchen started to comprehend the s.p.a.ce-time law.
At the 20 years mark, his s.p.a.ce-time dao reached the mid-state of city lord-level.
At the 50 years mark, it reached the late-state of city lord-level.
At the 120 years mark, it reached the perfection-state of city lord-level.
At the 380 years mark, Li Fuchen’s s.p.a.ce-time dao finally reached the star domain-level, but it was only the low-state of star domain-level.
“s.p.a.ce-time acceleration!”
With a wave of the hand, a s.p.a.ce-time power enveloped Li Fuchen.
2 times…
3 times…
Once the s.p.a.ce-time dao reached star domain-level, Li Fuchen could accelerate the s.p.a.ce-time around his vicinity.
It might only be three times, but it was better than being unchanged.
Li Fuchen was an unparalleled lord and being able to accelerate s.p.a.ce-time for an unparalleled lord was an incredible achievement.
Of course, it didn’t mean that Li Fuchen could accelerate s.p.a.ce-time for other unparalleled lords.
Firstly, when accelerating s.p.a.ce-time for himself, his body wouldn’t reject it. Other unparalleled lords would have resistances. Also, if the target was himself, there would be an enhanced effect.
Secondly, even if the other unparalleled lords didn’t have resistances, it was still impossible to accelerate s.p.a.ce-time for an unparalleled lord. Unless Li Fuchen’s s.p.a.ce-time dao could reach a higher level.
Coming out of the World Fruit, Li Fuchen said to the Immortal Lord, “Don’t resist, I will accelerate the s.p.a.ce-time around you.”
While speaking, Li Fuchen released a s.p.a.ce-time power to envelop the Immortal Lord.
5 times…
10 times…
20 times…
Without any resistance, Li Fuchen’s acceleration limit was 20 times.
After all, Li Fuchen’s s.p.a.ce-time dao was about the same level as the Immortal Lord. For a regular lord, if there was any resistance, the acceleration would be less than 2 times.
“Your s.p.a.ce-time dao?” The Immortal Lord was shocked.
To have a s.p.a.ce-time acceleration of 20 times, it meant that his efficiency was increased by 20 times. 10,000 years of outside time would mean he had comprehended the World Fruit for 200,000 years. The price was just the sacrifice of some time, but for lords, time didn’t have any significance.
For the Immortal Lord, the s.p.a.ce-time acceleration could only reach 20 times, but for the werewolf incarnation, it could reach 200 times.
One could see the extremely huge difference between star domain-level heaven lord and city lord-level heaven lord.
“200 times s.p.a.ce-time acceleration is enough for the werewolf incarnation to become a lord.”
1000 years of the outside time would be 200,000 years. Li Fuchen would be speechless if this amount of time wasn’t enough for the werewolf incarnation to become a lord.
Li Fuchen believed that the werewolf incarnation who had some of Li Fuchen’s spirit soul power wouldn’t have such a bad perception. 1000 years was just a bottomline for Li Fuchen, but in his opinion, the werewolf incarnation wouldn’t use 1000 years.
Li Fuchen didn’t accelerate s.p.a.ce-time for others, not even Yan Qingwu. Her lifespan was only a few million years. If Li Fuchen accelerated the s.p.a.ce-time for her at full strength, it would be able to reach 1000 times or a few thousand times. If that happened, 1000 years of the outside world would mean 1 million or a few million years.
It wouldn’t be too late to accelerate her s.p.a.ce-time after she became a heaven lord.
“It is time to collect the sword.” Li Fuchen was looking forward to seeing the sword embryo of the Primary Extreme Sword.
…
Scarlet Sword City, Scarlet Sword Manor.
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor wasn’t out yet. He had been inside the sword forging hall for over 980 years. During these 980 years, the sword forging hall had been constantly bursting with scarlet light and intimidating heat.
“Everything has its own unique energy and so does the divine metal. The Chaos Mother Copper is one of the top 10 divine metals in the universe. It isn’t that easy to handle the energy within the Chaos Mother Copper. If not handled well, it is easy to damage the energy source inside.”
Forging a sword embryo wasn’t just forging a shape. If it was just forging a shape, even Li fuchen could do it and he wouldn’t need the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor.
Three years later, the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor came out.
“Haha, I am lucky that I didn’t embarra.s.s myself. Your sword embryo is done.” The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor tossed a copper sword embryo to Li Fuchen.
“Such weight.” When receiving the sword embryo, Li Fuchen felt his hand sinking.
It felt as though this sword embryo had the weight of a few hundred stars.
With spiritual awareness entering the sword embryo, Li Fuchen noticed the energy source inside.
“Such a dense energy source and it is a chaos energy source without any attributes.”
In terms of energy source density, the sword embryo wasn’t inferior to a lord and it was a lord with the chaos dao.
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor said, “The chaos energy can be flawlessly trans.m.u.ted into any form of energy. This is why the Chaos Mother Copper is ranked top 10 among the divine metals. Also, because of the sufficient amount you provided, the energy source formed is also very dense. Even without injecting any sword patterns, this sword embryo itself already has the strength of a tier 2 extreme-grade artifact sword. Right now, it is up to your sword pattern to see how much further you can enhance the strength.”
The sword embryo’s energy source was equivalent to a lord’s energy, while the sword pattern was equivalent to a lord’s signature or kill move.
An incredible kill move could use a portion of energy to burst out with 10 times or 100 times the lethal power.
An incredible sword pattern could also enhance an artifact sword’s power by 10 times or 100 times.
“Many thanks to the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor.” Li Fuchen was very satisfied with the Primary Extreme Sword, as such, he gave his thanks to the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor again.
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor said, “In less than 1000 years, you have risen from 99th rank to the 12th rank of the Lord Rankings. You are the only person fit for this sword embryo.”
Right now, Li Fuchen was already a symbol of the Swordsmen Guild. The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor once heard that there were plenty of unparalleled lords that were greedy for Li Fuchen’s World Fruit and wanted to work together to deal with him. Right now, those people had probably given up. These were the changes that could be brought about by strength.
“The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor is praising me too much.” Li Fuchen shook his head.
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor seemed like he wanted to say something but was hesitating. Seeing the situation, Li Fuchen asked, “Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor, do you have something to say.”
Gritting his teeth, the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor said, “Primary Extreme Lord, I have a request for you. It doesn’t matter if it is completed or not, I will still give you 3 million elder points.”
After countless years, the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor had acc.u.mulated a huge amount of elder points.
Li Fuchen said, “Please state your request.”
“I wish to request the Primary Extreme Lord to make a trip into the Ancient Stone Star Domain’s Forbidden Grotto. My granddaughter, Moon Worship Heaven Lordess was inflicted by the Forbidden Grotto’s forbidden curse when she ventured there once. Every 100 years, she would go insane. This forbidden curse can only be expelled by the Rock of Forbidden from the Forbidden Grotto.” When thinking of his granddaughter’s miserable condition, the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor frowned with worry.
Li Fuchen was rather curious, “Is this Forbidden Grotto very dangerous? Can’t other unparalleled lords do it?” With the Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor’s strength and status, it should be rather easy even if he personally went or if he requested for an unparalleled lord to go. Why would he intentionally give him the request?
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor shook his head, “I have entered the Forbidden Grotto once. There is a monster inside called the Forbidden Stone Monkey. Not only is its body indestructible, it is also extremely powerful. Three of them would be enough to contest with an unparalleled lord. With my capability, I can only deal with 10 Forbidden Stone Monkeys at once. But there are hundreds of them inside. Without absolute strength, there isn’t spare energy to search for the Rock of Forbidden.”
He was ranked top 200 on the Lord Rankings, but if he couldn’t do it, there were lesser people who could. Only lords like Li Fuchen who ranked around top 20 could have any chances.
“Aren’t there any curse dao lords that can resolve the Forbidden Curse?”
Inside the universe, there were definitely lords who specialized in curse dao. The Deep Blue Plane already had the Curse Heaven Lord. After so many years, he might have also become a lord just like the Immortal Lord.
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor let out a bitter smile and said, “I have looked for three lords that are specialized in curse dao. The strongest among them is a pinnacle lord and he couldn’t do a thing. Perhaps only a curse dao unparalleled lord could have any chances to resolve the Forbidden Curse. According to my understanding, there isn’t any unparalleled lord on the Lord Rankings who specializes in the curse dao. There might be a few who cultivated the curse dao on the side, therefore, their proficiency isn’t enough.”
Li Fuchen nodded, specializing and cultivating on the side were two matters. Li Fuchen was also the same, he had a main cultivation in primary extreme sword dao which was at the apex of unparalleled lords. But his s.p.a.ce-time dao was only at a regular lord level.
“Alright, wait for me to inject the sword pattern first. Once I have the chance, I will make a trip to the Forbidden Grotto.” 3 million elder points was a huge temptation to Li Fuchen.
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor said, “The Primary Extreme Lord might not know that the Forbidden Curse will act up every 100 years. After acting up for 99 times, the victim would become a monster and it would be irreversible. My granddaughter’s Forbidden Curse has already acted up 28 times.”
He was giving Li Fuchen a warning that her granddaughter was only left with around 7000 years and it must not be delayed any further.
Of course, he wouldn’t place all his bets on Li Fuchen. 1000 years ago, he already spent huge money to hire two of the top 50 unparalleled lords. However, there was no news until now. Not wanting to take the risk, he decided to hire Li Fuchen too.
“I understand.” Li Fuchen nodded.
7000 years was more than enough for him. The injection of the sword pattern should be relatively fast.
Just for precaution, Li Fuchen decided to inject the sword pattern into the Primary Extreme Sword embryo after returning to the Deep Blue Plane.
Furthermore, the journey to the Forbidden Grotto just happened to be suitable to depart from the East Unicorn Continent. It was extremely convenient.
