The sixth level of the Nine Universes Heavenly Bridge.
Amidst the howling winds, Luo Ao stood on the surface of the Heavenly Bridge, looking at the Tornado before him, and closed his eyes slightly to adjust himself to his best condition.
"Choose your opponent: Warrior, Controller, Illusionist. Defeat one to advance to the seventh level," a voice echoed from within the Tornado.
"A martial artist." Luo Ao's voice was crisp and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
Suddenly, a figure flew out of the Tornado. He was still dressed in silver, wearing combat boots, and carrying a dark red battle sword. His masked face coldly looked at Luo Ao: "You think you can pass the sixth level of the Heavenly Bridge just because you're Universe Level? You're really quite confident."
"Attack with all your might, or you will be powerless to resist once I make my move."
"You talk too much!" Luo Ao replied coldly.
"This little guy's got quite a temper. I'd like to see what he's really capable of."
The man in silver instantly fixed his gaze on them.
call out!
The silver-clad man charged forward instantly, creating 256 Space Phantom in the space in front of him. These 256 spatial clones simultaneously thrust out their blood-red battle swords, resembling a perfectly aligned army, and instantly surrounded and attacked him.
The difference between the sixth and fifth floors, while not as dramatic as the difference between the seventh and sixth floors, is still enormous.
Because the Second Diagram is far more profound than the First Diagram, its power is naturally much greater.
Normally, one must have a basic understanding of the Second Diagram, " Drizzle Diagram," before one can proceed to the sixth level.
However, geniuses like Luo Ao, who study the Law Essence, have a more solid foundation and are often able to unleash the power of the same method to a greater extent.
Take the power of the " Spatial Binding " technique as an example. The Gatekeeper's attack methods may contain all 36 profound mysteries, but he has not grasped the Space Essence and is only exerting basic power.
Luo Ao, on the other hand, had grasped the Space Essence, and his every move could connect with the deeper Origin of Laws of the universe. He could unleash nearly ten times the power of the same move.
However, he only grasped the nine essential aspects of the First Diagram, and only mastered six of the Law Essence of the Second Diagram.
Although he has only grasped the Law Essence, it is entirely possible for him to defeat the Gatekeeper of the sixth level with this knowledge.
"Bring it on!"
Luo Ao's eyes shone brightly as he watched 256 silver Flowing Light simultaneously tear through the air, the Silver-Clad Man's movement technique displaying astonishing speed.
Luo Ao Aoming's profound understanding is " Spatial Binding," which is the initial form of " Space Lockdown." However, the profound understanding that best enhances movement techniques is the " Teleportation " aspect.
Therefore, in terms of pure movement speed and the application of Phantom Body, Luo Ao is far inferior to his opponent. The Gatekeeper is not only fast, but his Phantom Body also form a formation similar to a military array, which is truly unpredictable.
256 silver figures, almost simultaneously following the exquisite curves of the spatial ripples, suddenly thrust their swords at him.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
The 256 silver Phantom Body almost simultaneously created blurry silver afterimages, moving at extreme speed. The dark red sword blades contained a chilling aura of the Universe Origin Law.
In an instant.
Space distorted, transforming into countless hazy sword shadows that intertwined into a net, covering him!
" Space Stagnation!"
Seeing this, Luo Ao did not hesitate at all. He also created more than two hundred clones, and huge sword lights appeared in front of him in an instant. These twisted sword lights in the shape of strips formed a huge Ring Domain. As the Ring Domain expanded, the surrounding space instantly froze as if it were frozen.
Under the immense pressure of this binding force, all of the Silver-Clad Man's Phantom Body instantly slowed down. Although he didn't experience the collapse of his Phantom Body like the Gatekeeper of the fifth level, he still seemed to have suddenly fallen into a quagmire, his movements uncontrollably slowing down.
"Here!"
The Phantom Body and the real body have completely different levels of resistance to this Space Domain. Following the special spatial fluctuations, Luo Ao quickly identified the location of the other party's true body.
"So what if you find my true form!" The Silver-Clad Man's expression changed, but his true form did not retreat; it continued to charge forward relentlessly.
Although his Phantom Body were subjected to immense spatial pressure within this domain, preventing them from unleashing their full power, the impact on him was much less. While his speed decreased, it remained astonishing.
"Prepare to die!"
A flash of sword light!
The Silver-Clad Man rushed to Luo Ao's side, and an incomparably dazzling sword light suddenly shone forth, carrying a terrifying power capable of cutting through space and shattering everything.
Seeing that the other party was going head-to-head with him, Luo Ao was naturally more than happy to oblige.
" Ceasing Sword!"
Luo Ao also suddenly thrust out his sword. The powerful Spatial Binding force of the Ring Domain around him was all concentrated on the tip of the sword, and spatial ripples spread out in all directions.
One sword light was dark red, and the other was fiery red. Two sword lights, both imbued with the power of the Universe Origin, shot out almost simultaneously and rushed towards their opponent.
The move ' Ceasing Sword ' is essentially about concentrating the binding power of the entire domain into a single point and then integrating it into one's sword technique. Achieving this is no easy feat. However, Luo Ao's comprehension of developing and mastering ultimate techniques is equally impressive.
"That guy!"
The Silver-Clad Man was now somewhat regretting his decision to engage in a direct confrontation; he hadn't anticipated that Luo Ao possessed such a powerful move.
The opponent's sword strike was based entirely on 15 profound techniques, concentrating the spatial pressure of the entire Ring Domain.
When the spatial pressure of the entire Ring Domain was dispersed, he could still resist most of its power. Now that it's all concentrated in one place, how can he possibly withstand it?
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~" As the two sword lights shot out simultaneously, just before they made contact, the Silver-Clad Man and the sword light he emitted noticeably slowed down, as if they were under invisible pressure. Meanwhile, Luo Ao's sword light, aided by the overall support of his Ring Domain, directly pressed forward.
Boom!
The fiery red sword light swept through the opponent's head with unstoppable force, easily shattering the dark red sword light!
The sixth floor!
Through!
"If you try to outmaneuver me, you might have a chance of winning. But if you try to fight me head-on, you're just asking for death." Luo Ao had a slight smile on his face.
"The ' Space Stagnation ' technique I've mastered might not pose much of a threat to you, but compared to ' Ceasing Sword,' you simply don't have the ability to confront me head-on."
In reality, the Ring Domain itself, at most, only disables the Gatekeeper's Phantom Body technique and slows down the opponent.
Even with its speed reduced, the sixth-level Gatekeeper is still able to exert most of its strength within this Ring Domain.
However, his biggest mistake was directly confronting Luo Ao with that sword strike.
In a head-on clash, Luo Ao used his ultimate move, ' Ceasing Sword,' to concentrate all the power of his Ring Domain into a single point, resulting in a spatial pressure that was far more than just a few times greater.
In the instant the two approached each other, he estimated that it would be difficult for him to even move, and his attempt to invoke the Universe Origin would be greatly interfered with, naturally making him appear utterly vulnerable.
If the opponent isn't in such a hurry and keeps entangled with him using speed, it will be difficult for Luo Ao to land a hit on them.
After all, the moment the ' Ceasing Sword ' is unleashed, the rest of the Ring Domain will lose its oppressive force, the opponent will not be suppressed in any way, and the speed will be so fast that Luo Ao simply cannot catch up. Under such circumstances, it will be very difficult for him to hit the opponent.
"I thought he was going to use his trump card, but it seems I didn't have to." Luo Ao smiled and flew directly upwards, heading towards the seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge!
The Tongtian Bridge Plane, in the center of the island.
Thousand Illusions King, Ice Dream King, and the others stared in shock at the scene unfolding on the screen in front of them.
"It actually succeeded like that?" The Flame Dragon King was also surprised.
"His use of the ' Spatial Binding ' technique was too perfect, and it was also the Gatekeeper gave him the opportunity." The Ice Dream King, dressed in a deep blue gauze dress with four transparent wings on his back, had a dreamy look in his eyes.
Azure River King's emerald eyes also lit up, and he nodded. "The secret techniques in ' Space-Time Essays ' are there, but not everyone can learn them..."
The difficulty of ' Ceasing Sword ' is definitely among the highest in " Space-Time Essays ". This is not because it is so powerful, but because its principles are too complex. One must go through the path of thoroughly understanding the Law Essence of space to have any hope of learning it.
Some powerful individuals, even though they are already comprehending the Fourth Diagram or fifth diagram, have not yet grasped the Law Essence, so they can never learn this move. Such moves can be considered signature skills unique to peerless geniuses.
The aloof man clad in blue demonic armor nodded in agreement with Azure River King. The coldness on his face melted away, and he smiled, praising, "Actually, we could see from the previous Trial Tower that Luo Ao's talent in Laws is impressive, but his talent in Combat Secret Technique is even more remarkable."
Arcane talent is also very important. Two King-level Immortal may have similar Law Comprehension, but their strength may differ greatly.
Why? Putting aside Gene Level, treasures, and other external factors, the fundamental difference lies in the power of their secret techniques.
Generally speaking, a higher level of Law Comprehension will allow one to unleash more powerful secret techniques. However, when the Law Comprehension is roughly the same, the talent for developing and comprehending secret techniques becomes equally important.
For example, among the group of people present, although more than half of them had obtained the title of King Rank, some were only at the High King or Peak King, while others were at the King Rank Limit or even Invincible King. Apart from external factors such as treasures, to a certain extent, it was because their respective secret techniques were at different levels.
Therefore, while the talent for researching, learning, and Creation Secret Technique may not be as important as pure Law Comprehension in the early stages, it is still a crucial step towards the former.
"However, although the sixth level didn't force him to reveal his trump card, he probably still won't be able to get past the seventh level."
"Haha, what nonsense are you talking about? Who ever makes it to the seventh floor on their first try?" Another King Rank laughed, though their eyes were still filled with shock.
Even in the endless river of human history, there have been very few geniuses as legendary as this.
The seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge.
"Starry sky!" Luo Ao flew on the seventh-level Heavenly Bridge, feeling like he was in a dream, because before him was no longer a raging wind, but an endless starry sky.
This seventh-level Heavenly Bridge is actually situated amidst a starry sky view.
Luo Ao finally flew to the end of the seventh level of the Heavenly Bridge, where a small meteorite, several kilometers in diameter, was suspended. A voice emanated from the meteorite. "Choose your opponent: Warrior, Controller, Illusionist. Choose one, and you can pass through the seventh level."
"Martial artist!" Luo Ao shouted, his heart filled with anticipation.
He also wanted to see his opponent's abilities on the seventh floor.
