"Destruction Laws, Vitality Laws."
Inside Qin Hao's cave dwelling in the Two Realms Heavenly Dao Diagram, he sat cross-legged, continuously working through the Laws Method in his mind.
What he called working through it was, in practice, a matter of repeated deduction and refinement: weaving the Laws Method into his techniques until it enhanced the Four Great Sword Moves.
Time passed, little by little.
Three days went by in the blink of an eye. Qin Hao still sat cross-legged, surrounded by dense Destruction Laws and Vitality Laws.
He could clearly feel that the many Little Swords formed from the Destruction Laws and Vitality Laws around Qin Hao were far more powerful than they had been three days earlier. But...
But...
Qin Hao frowned slightly.
He still had not broken through?
By his reckoning three days ago, he had been one step away from increasing the power of the Four Great Sword Moves by fifty percent. Three days should have been enough.
Yet although the sword moves had clearly grown stronger, they remained short of that breakthrough.
It was as though a thin membrane stood before him. No matter what Qin Hao tried, he could not pierce it, and that membrane kept him from truly breaking through.
"What's going on?"
"What's the reason?"
Qin Hao frowned, unable to make sense of it.
Whoosh.
As Qin Hao pondered, starlight suddenly gathered in the open space before him. A fist-sized insect appeared, its mouth packed with two rows of razor-sharp teeth.
"Hiss, hiss!"
The moment it appeared, the insect let out a vicious cry and shot toward Qin Hao in a streak of golden light.
Qin Hao froze. A Heart-Eater Bug?
This was unmistakably the very Heart-Eater Bug he had Slaying three days ago.
