Looking at the equipment here, Jiang Ming felt as though he were seeing the Immortal Ancient Era, a corner of the Emperor's Fall Era.
Without a doubt, the First-Generation Borderland Stone King had lived during the Emperor's Fall Era. He had departed in search of the Dark Origin, using his own body to block the gateway through which darkness entered the Primordial Ancient Realm. This had allowed the Primordial Ancient Realm to remain powerful throughout the Immortal Ancient Era. Back then, there had been many Immortal King Colossi, Quasi-Immortal Kings, and Immortal Kings.
How tragically heroic it had been.
The Primordial Imperial City had stood at the Heavenly Abyss, holding back invasions from the Other Realm. Later, he had used his own body to block the darkness.
These twenty-odd unexpected intruders had upset the balance. In the end, they had been reduced to begging the Stone King to kill them.
Now, Jiang Ming had put all their corpses to use. He could not let them rest in peace; this was all he could do. In a way, they had sought benevolence and received it, their wishes fulfilled.
Only after completing all this did Jiang Ming commune with the Witch Race Divine Form.
He successfully obtained these people's secret arts and divine abilities, along with vast quantities of fragments of the Great Dao laws they had cultivated, including the Stone King's.
Of course, the First-Generation Stone King's Great Dao law fragments were the most important.
His primary path had been the force Dao, along with the principal Daos granted by his innate divine abilities: Law Immunity and unerring accuracy. The metal, wood, water, fire, earth, space, and time Daos he had dabbled in were merely supplementary Great Dao laws.
With these alone, the Stone King's combat strength had been absolutely formidable.
