Chapter 883: 108 Prodigies
Translator: jinzeffect
“Sky Dao Divine Line Sword doesn’t just contain sword dao, it also contains the truth of heaven dao.” Li Fuchen was in contemplation.
The heaven dao contained all daos, or should it be said to contain everything known and unknown.
Sword dao was only one of the daos.
A person’s life experiences, life comprehension, and universe knowledge actually contained traces of heaven dao.
After all, the heaven dao was omnipresent.
Therefore, on surface, Li Fuchen was actually lacking the cleanse of age, but fundamentally, he was lacking comprehension of heaven dao.
“The Skyline Sword Art is just a top rate apex sword art. I wonder how much more heaven dao truth does a supreme rate sword art contains.”
Li Fuchen finally understood why so many people would be stuck at saint lord. They weren’t lacking in perception, they were lacking in heaven dao comprehension. It was estimated that one million years, or even a few millions years could accumulate enough heaven dao comprehension.
Of course, one must fulfil the requirements of having the potential to become a heaven lord. Without the potential, 100 million years wouldn’t be enough.
As time passed by slowly, Li Fuchen upgraded the Sword Qi Origin Return to top rate apex state too. But for the next half a month, there was no progress.
“It seems like this move’s power should be far superior to the Sky Dao Divine Line Sword.”
Li Fuchen wasn’t anxious either. As of now, his sword art was already sufficiently powerful.
The Skyline Sword Art wasn’t a regular top rate apex sword art, it was a superior top rate apex sword art.
As for Primary Extreme Sword Art which had all the moves at top rate apex state, it wasn’t much inferior to the Skyline Sword Art either.
With two incredible sword arts, it was enough for him to traverse across the universe. As long as he didn’t meet any heaven lords, he would basically face no danger.
Originally, Li Fuchen planned to polish the Primary Extreme Sword Technique a little, but just earlier, Mt. Star Fate on the East Unicorn Continent suddenly burst out with intense blue light.
In just a short moment, Li Fuchen arrived at Mt. Star Fate.
Mt. Star Fate was gathered with plenty of saint lords and beast sovereigns, even the Sky Patrol Beast Sovereign was here.
“Hmph!”
When the Sky Patrol Beast Sovereign saw Li Fuchen, he let out a cold snort. If the Jade Star Saint Lord and Jasper Flower Saint Lordess didn’t stop him, he would have already killed Li Fuchen.
Just like before, Mt. Star Fate had an arrangement of 108 Heaven Dipper Stone Pillars. Right now, the 108 Heaven Dipper Stone Pillars were emitting a resplendent blue light. It was translucent and shining with a mysterious energy aura.
Above the Heaven Dipper Stone Pillars was a tightly shut stone gate.
The stone gate was very firm and not even the saint lords or beast sovereigns were able to destroy it.
“If I’m not guessing it wrongly, this stone gate requires 108 individuals to open it.” The Jade Star Saint Lord stated.
“Everyone stand on top then!” The Jasper Flower Saint Lordess suggested.
There might not be 108 saint lords and beast sovereigns, but after adding the saints and beast overlords, it was rather easy to make up 108.
“I shall go first.”
A beast sovereign rushed for the nearest Heaven Dipper Stone Pillar.
Boom!
There was a burst of resplendent blue light as the beast sovereign was sent flying back. He couldn’t even make it up the Heaven Dipper Stone Pillar.
“What is going on?”
The rest of the people attempted, but were all unable to stand on top.
Li Fuchen thought for a moment and said, “Mt. Star Fate gathers the qi fate of the East Unicorn Continent. In order to open the stone gate, it will probably need 108 native prodigies.”
In the past, Mt. Star Fate was the place that decided the Stars Ranking’s prodigies. Li Fuchen came to this deduction based on that.
“108 native prodigies? That is simple.” A human saint laughed.
Gathering 108 native prodigies on the East Unicorn Continent wasn’t different, after all, the East Unicorn Continent wasn’t huge.
Three days later, hundreds of East Unicorn Continent’s prodigies were gathered on Mt. Star Fate.
Outside of expectations, out of the hundreds of prodigies, less than 30 made it up the Heaven Dipper Stone Pillar. The rest weren’t qualified.
“What else can we do? We still need more than half.”
“Prodigies might not have to be young. We can find some seniors.”
Everyone discussed.
One week later, another dozen individuals stood up the Heaven Dipper Stone Pillars. For the next half a month, no one else could stand on them.
“It seems like I have to bring back some old friends.”
Li Fuchen thought of Yan Qingwu, Chiyu Ye, and the other Star Ranking prodigies of his generation. Of course, it included the Evil Monarch, as he was a famed absolute prodigy that wasn’t inferior to anyone else.
If it was in the past, it would be too difficult for Li Fuchen to find those people. But now that his spiritual awareness could easily cover a mid-class continent, it was an ease for him to find them.
Everyone was filled with emotions as they reunited once again.
In just the blink of the eye, a few dozen years passed by. For any other ordinary person, a few dozen years would be half a lifetime.
From a glance, it seemed like everyone was doing well. All of them were already at the Primary Sea Realm and none of them were low-level monarchs.
Among them, there were several in the Law Phase Realm. Putting aside Yan Qingwu and Evil Monarch, Chiyu Ye and a few others with great talent were all in the Law Phase Realm.
Li Fuchen reckoned that everyone could achieve such results due to the East Unicorn Continent’s qi fate.
With more East Unicorn Continent’s qi fate, the individual’s fated encounters would be better.
Of course, the East Unicorn Continent’s qi fate didn’t restrict to just the Star Ranking prodigies.
Take the Evil Monarch for example, he never participated in the Star Ranking Tournament, but since he once ruled over the entire East Unicorn Continent, his East Unicorn Continent’s qi fate didn’t lose out to anyone.
Half a month later, Li Fuchen found a few dozen individuals. Among them were people he knew, but there were others he wasn’t familiar with too. The latter were those that were prominent prodigies in the later generation of the Star Rankings.
Due to the huge lack of individuals, Li Fuchen had Zhao Mingyue, Sword Maniac Li Xiangru, and other Azure Water Sect’s top prodigies back to the East Unicorn Continent too.
After some attempts, the Azure Water Sect actually had several individuals who could stand on top of the Heaven Dipper Stone Pillar. Li Fuchen was rather surprised by the result.
With all the recruitment effort, 107 individuals had finally been gathered.
“We still lack one.” The saint lords and beast sovereigns frowned.
“It seems like I still have to go up.”
Li Fuchen let out a bitter laugh as he stood on the Heaven Dipper Stone Pillar under the shocked eyes of many saint lords and beast sovereigns.
“He is actually from the East Unicorn Continent too?”
Only a minority of individuals knew that Li Fuchen was a native of the East Unicorn Continent, therefore, many of them were shocked.
As Li Fuchen stood on the Heaven Dipper Stone Pillar, all 108 Heaven Dipper Stone Pillars burst out with resplendent blue light. Immediately after, the blue light formed a blue dragon that soared in the sky.
“What is going on?”
All of a sudden, the various saints, beast overlords, saint lords, and beast sovereigns realized there were traces of blue light leaking out from their body and heading towards the blue dragon.
“He is siphoning our essence.” The Jade Star Saint Lord’s expression turned dark.
The essence he mentioned wasn’t qi blood essence, but source essence. In normal situations, it wasn’t possible for source essence to be extracted. Even after killing an individual, it couldn’t be extracted. The source essence would instantly vanish along with death and return to heaven dao. But these 108 Heaven Dipper Stone Pillars were actually able to absorb source essence. It truly surprised the Jade Star Saint Lord.
“Damn it, come back!”
The Sky Patrol Beast Sovereign reached out and attempted to grasp the blue essence that was leaking from his body.
The source essence represents a person’s potential. How could anyone not be nervous if their potential was getting taken?
It was a pity that everything was futile.
