Chapter 171: Understanding of Laws

"Beast Ball" "Beast Ball" In a rage, Cao Bing destroyed demons with her beast ball. At this moment, she seems to have lost her senses. Seeing two tails in her back, Yan ChuFen shouted "Brother Xiao, knock her out, quick!"

Hearing her tone, Xiao Zhen didn't hesitate. He stepped Sword energy, soaring towards her. At first, he thought it would take some effort to knock her out, but he found she was completely defenseless from her back.

Xiao Zhen covered his arm with sword energy and chopped on her neck. But this chop was a little bit too hard, it almost blows her off to the ground. Yan ChuFen hurried towards her and spoke "Nine-Tailed Divine Fox is known for its infinite amount of energy. But this energy itself is very negative, if the user can't control her emotions, then this energy will corrode her mind."

"Fortunately, at this moment you acted fast. If someone would have attacked her before you, not like a sneak attack, then her guard would be completely up." Then she looked at Fei and said "Brother Fei, can you keep them together? Her emotions are too easy to manipulate at this moment, only after seeing Guo Yang, she can calm down."

"Alright" Fei nodded his head, and take them inside the pagoda. Xiao Zhen looked towards Cao Bin and Guo Xin saying "In a battle, injuries are normal. When we fight we need to completely focus, not letting our emotions take over us. There is no free thing in the world, everything is an exchange, and only getting stronger will give you higher terms in exchange. So, don't let your emotions get you.

After all, don't forget you have killed thousands of their kind. Although they are demons, they also have emotions. All you need to do kill more."

Cao Bin and Guo Xin were silent for a long moment, only then they hoarsely nodded "Yes vice-captain."

Inside the pagoda, Fei put them under the Sacred Dew Tree. Cao Bing wasn't injured much, but Guo Yang had his muscles tore and bones were broken. Especially, his blood was very less at this moment, but he was a martial artist after all. So less blood didn't affect him much, with the help of Sacred Dew, his injuries were healing.

Outside the battlefield, currently, only Xiao Zhen, Kong Qi, and Qin HuiFang were allowed to fight against Rank 5 demons. Currently, they were already above the foundation realm. Within these five months, others were already at the peak of Foundation Realm while Xiao Zhen and Qin HuiFang broke through Houtian Realm.

Actually, Sister Su also broke through Houtian but unfortunately, her battle strength is still not enough to face 5th Rank demons. This is no surprise after all; there are four ranks difference in strength between them.

Xiao Zhen can fight them only based on his comprehension of the sword, and Peerless Sword Body. His Sword Realm has achieved Sword Heart Realm. One with the sword, anything is a sword for him, he can endlessly burrow power from the spiritual energy to fill his Sword Energy. And he has also touched the fur about Laws including Sword Law, Thunder Law, Water Law, Metal Law, etc.

As for Qin HuiFang, her comprehension of Ice Law has reached Small Accomplishment. After discussing with Xiao Zhen, she found Laws are divided into three stages, four floors. The three stages are Small Accomplishment, Great Accomplishment, and Perfection. Four floors are Touch of Laws, Blending with Laws, One with the Laws, and Creating the Laws.

These things were a little out of her mind, still, she hasn't learned much about it. But four floors come under each stage while being independent to each stage. She literally didn't understand what that means and found even Xiao Zhen was clueless about it.

Finally, bearing jealously in her heart, she asked Su Ling. Fortunately, Su Ling explained everything about Laws to her and Xiao Zhen after all they already knew very much, especially Xiao Zhen. There are two types of laws, Mortal and Immortal.

Within the mortals, laws are divided by floors, only those who reach the True Martial Realm can use the last two floors of four floors. Under that realm, you can only understand Touch of Laws and Blending with Laws. But these floors come under the three stages, because no matter whether you are Saint or Mortal, you can reach any of these stages.

So you can reach Perfection in law even if you are under the True Martial Realm, but you still haven't reached 'One with Laws' realm. So, these floors are independent because they do not affect your progression in three stages.

Of course, there is a deeper meaning to four floors, and why they are independent. The first floor which is called Touch of Laws is also known as an artistic concept. Previously, when Fei fought against those saints, he was in the realm of 'Blending with Laws' which is a higher floor than 'Touch of Laws'.

Artistic Concept is a realm where a person can merge his martial art with the laws, making his body comfortable enough to support the power of Laws. After all, Laws are not something anyone can bear; only understanding more about them wills allows you to control the Laws.

It's like pills, if you use it in the wrong way or for rapid progression your foundation will be damaged. A law doesn't damage your foundation instead it'll fast or slow-kill you. Only understanding them will allow you to use Laws. After all, Laws are natural rules, so only when you understand you can use them.

This was also the reason why Fei sacrificed his body strength because his body was completely distorted by the power Laws. Artistic Concept can allow you to merge the Laws into your Martial Arts, which is like modification of Martial Art.

So only when you reach the True Meaning Realm, you can try learning about Laws or you can also try after you reaching Law Awakening Stage. But the effect will definitely be very low. This is the kindness of Heaven, allowing everyone to learn about Laws.

After all, not everyone is a genius. 'Blending with Laws' is completely different than 'Touch of Laws'. In this realm, you burrow the power of elements or Laws from Heaven and Earth and use it in your Martial Art.

Once you reach this realm, you don't need to modify your martial art to bear the power of Laws, instead, you understand the Laws in such a way, and it completely blends with your body and essence. So, on this floor, you can burrow the power of Law on your attacks, or any other activities.

'Blending with Laws' and 'One with Laws' might sounds the same but have a different meaning. On the 'One with Laws' floor, you completely store the power of Laws inside your dantian. In another term, 'One with Laws' comes under the special energy called Saint Energy.

Saint Energy has the power of Laws in it, so when a person can absorb it, he can also absorb the power of Laws. This is why only those who surpassed the True Martial Realm can use it. Of course, this has deeper meaning into it, only when one reaches Saint, you can experience it.

As for 'Creating the Laws', it literally means what it says. Currently, Qin HuiFang has reached the Artistic Concept over the Law of Ice. She can merge Law of Ice within her martial arts, which also means she has reached True Meaning in her Martial Art.

As for Immortal Law, Su Ling didn't explain much. But just from her description, they guess Su Ling must be someone from the universe, a relative of Fei, maybe?

Currently, Qin HuiFang was facing off against a Rank 5th demon of Golden Ape Clan. This demon was in bloodline transformation, while Qin HuiFang was struck hard by her. She had blood flowing out of her mouth.

Qin HuiFang erupts her ice power. She murmured, and suddenly the mysterious power between Heaven and Earthfall in her body "Artistic Concept- Hall of Ice Lotus"

Seeing this, the demon girl pupil shrunk, she also erupt her demon power. Her bloodline was pumping power into her arm, she knuckles her fingers, forming a fist covered with a golden layer, she roared against Qin HuiFang "Golden Ape Secret Art- Golden Ape King Fist'.

But inside her body, there were some injuries left by the power following out of her bloodline. This was due to the overload of her power, she couldn't even handle. Fortunately, Qin HuiFang didn't suffer such injuries, except those injuries in her skin.

A lotus flew out of her palm, colliding against the golden fist rushing towards her.

"Bang" "Crack" "Boom" "Splash"

But it wasn't a single lotus; suddenly four more lotuses flew out of her palm. These lotuses were rushing towards a golden fist, making the shape of arrow formation. The power of these lotuses broke the golden fist, in pieces and collided against the demon body.

But they didn't injure her inside, they flew inside her body. When that happened, it was seemingly like a ghost lotus, not an ice lotus. But when they reached inside her body, they merged into one, transforming into a single ice lotus.

The next moment, the lotus expanded and pierced her body, stretches out the leaves of the lotus. Her blood, bones, including her demon core, were frozen.

Xiao Zhen was also watching her while fighting against another rank 5th demon. This demon was very much irritated when he found Xiao Zhen was pretty much ignoring him. He clenched powerful fists, slamming against Xiao Zhen.

Seeing Qin HuiFang final move, Xiao Zhen had an arc in his mouth. He was smiling and murmuring "As a vice-captain, how can I lose to others?" Suddenly, a powerful breath came out of his body. Although Xiao Zhen wasn't gaining any heavy hand against the fifth rank demon, he wasn't also hurt like Qin HuiFang.

But how can this satisfy him, Xiao Zhen's body was invaded by the power of Heaven and Earth. His body style changed, and his sword was a little abnormal. It was almost as if invisible, but it was constantly excluding powerful sword energy.

Suddenly, Xiao Zhen moved, his sword flashes like a clap of thunder and stab against the demon's neck, making a perfect hole in the middle of his neck.

"Splash" "Thud"

"Artistic Concept- Sword of Thunder"
