Chapter 717: Ident.i.ty Choice (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In that case, the choice of these nine ident.i.ties was very important. Only by choosing an ident.i.ty that was suitable for him could he control the Dao as quickly as possible. For example, for people with higher comprehension, the method of seclusion and enlightenment was a suitable choice for him.
Xiao s.h.i.+ had always been extraordinary in terms of comprehension. However, he felt that seclusion and enlightenment was not his first choice. Because among the other ident.i.ties, there were ident.i.ties that were more suitable for him.
For example, the Beginner Martial Arts Robe (7) that he was looking at. The way this ident.i.ty controlled the Dao was more suitable than seclusion and enlightenment. Because this ident.i.tys control technique was Slaughter!
It was mainly to master the Dao through continuous killing. And Xiao s.h.i.+s martial path was mainly about killing. It could be said that he had completely killed his way from the Martial Entry-Level to the current Sage.
Even the increase in his comprehension was obtained through continuous killing. Therefore, there was no more suitable way for him to control the Dao than killing. However, the more troublesome thing was that he was the last to choose one of these ident.i.ties. This might not give him the chance to choose this ident.i.ty.
Xiao s.h.i.+ immediately checked the other ident.i.ties. He wanted to see if there was anything more suitable for him than killing. However, after looking around, he did not find any other better way to control the Dao than killing.
The only things second to killing were seclusion and enlightenment, as well as array formation. Apart from having a powerful comprehension ability that exceeded ordinary people, the plundering of the apt.i.tude of the genius of the Crafty Array Clan also allowed him to have extraordinary attainments in array formations.
However, seclusion, enlightenment, and array formations were far inferior to the Slaughter Dao. It could only be used as an alternative. What Xiao s.h.i.+ was thinking about now was how he could choose the ident.i.ty corresponding to the Beginner Martial Arts Robe (7) to obtain the opportunity to kill.
Currently, including Xiao s.h.i.+, there are a total of six people here. There were a total of nine different ident.i.ties to choose from. As the last candidate, Xiao s.h.i.+ could only choose from the remaining four ident.i.ties.
This made it very difficult to ensure that he could choose the Slaughter Dao. In the worst case scenario, not only would he not be able to choose the Slaughter Dao, but he might not even be able to choose the Dao of Seclusion and enlightenment, and array formations.
He could not go against this selection order either. After all, this selection order was set by these people. It could be seen from the moment someone immediately attacked him when he approached that these people valued the choice of ident.i.ty very much. They would never tolerate a newbie like him making a choice before them.
If these people were all half-step Daolords, Xiao s.h.i.+ might be able to try to s.n.a.t.c.h this ident.i.ty by force. But with the Daolord among them, even if he forcefully s.n.a.t.c.hed it, it was impossible for him to s.n.a.t.c.h this ident.i.ty. He could only rely on luck.
Soon, after the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord finished speaking, he began to make his choice. This also made Xiao s.h.i.+ realize that this silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord was the first person among them to come to the Beginner Martial Era. Presumably, this was also the reason why this person became the Daolord among everyone.
The other party had experienced the most resets. He was naturally the person with the greatest hope of becoming a Daolord.
However, what puzzled Xiao s.h.i.+ was that the other party had clearly already become a Daolord. Why did he still stay here to choose his ident.i.ty?
In Xiao s.h.i.+s opinion, since their goal in entering the Beginner Martial Era was to control the Heavenly Dao, after becoming Daolords, they should naturally leave and return to the Tianwu Continent.
If one wanted to obtain eternal life in the Beginner Martial Era, they could choose to join the Beginner Martial Era. This way, after every reset, at least his lifespan would not be lost. Otherwise, even if he was a Daolord, his lifespan would gradually be exhausted under repeated resets. At that time, he would still die. If he wanted to obtain eternal life here, he had to join the Beginner Martial Era.
After thinking about it, Xiao s.h.i.+ felt that there were two reasons why the other party continued to stay here.
Firstly, the other party had not found a way to leave the Beginner Martial Era, but he did not want to join the Beginner Martial Era, so he could only be forced to stay here.
Secondly, although the other party had become a Daolord, what he controlled was not the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, he wanted to continue staying and control the Heavenly Dao.
After all, the reason why he came to the Beginner Martial Era was because of the Heavenly Dao. No one would be satisfied with mortal Dao. But under normal circ.u.mstances, be it the Heavenly Dao or the mortal Dao, they could usually only control one Dao.
Xiao s.h.i.+ had never heard of anyone who could control many Dao. Once many different Daos appeared on his body, his body would explode because of the conflict of the Dao.
For example, in the Imperial Domain, the three royal guards had forcefully condensed their Dao into Cheng Riyous body, causing the power in Cheng Riyous body to be chaotic. He was on the verge of exploding on the spot.
Therefore, even if the Dao that the other party controlled was not the Heavenly Dao, it would probably be difficult for him to continue controlling the second Dao.
Xiao s.h.i.+ was more inclined to the first reason he had guessed. From the expressions of the others, they were not surprised that this silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord would continue to stay here.
They obviously knew the real reason. However, these people were generally relatively aloof and even had some faint hostility towards Xiao s.h.i.+. Previously, it was also the silver-haired and silver-eyed Daolord who told Xiao s.h.i.+ much information about the Beginner Martial Era..
