All Directions Pay Tribute, Ten Thousand Laws Return to One
Lei Wanjun's surrender was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a monstrous wave in the Great Qi Dynasty and even the surrounding martial arts world!
Everyone was stunned by the news.
That's the Wind and Thunder Pavilion! It has a history of over four hundred years, and its Pavilion Master, Lei Wanjun, is a renowned Grandmaster. Yet... it couldn't even last a day before being forced to hand over the very foundation of its existence?!
Where did this mysterious and powerful figure named "Dongfang Yueming" come from?!
Just as everyone was filled with doubt and speculation about who would be the next unlucky one, an even more shocking piece of news followed.
The next day, the sect leader of the Boulder Sect," known for its earth-attribute techniques and defense, was also suppressed by the opponent's domain power in front of the mountain gate. He was ultimately forced to hand over the sect's inheritance, the " Boulder Spirit-Gathering Method " and the " Boulder Seal."
On the third day, the Heavenly Sword Sect, renowned for its fierce swordsmanship, had its proud protective sword formation shattered like a child's toy by the opponent with a single finger. The sect leader coughed up blood on the spot, and after three days of seclusion, he directly announced that he would be secluded for a hundred years and would no longer concern himself with worldly affairs.
Panic spread like wildfire among all the sects that still possessed the legacy of Grandmaster.
They finally realized with despair that resistance was futile. The man's power was completely beyond their comprehension. He was like a god walking among men, mercilessly crushing all rules wherever he went.
Amidst endless fear and despair, a scene unfolded that left all the martial artists in the region utterly dumbfounded.
Day four, early morning.
For the first time in history, sect leaders and elders from seven different dynasties and eleven sects gathered in front of the Earth Spirit Sect's mountain gate!
These powerful Grandmaster, who were usually aloof and invincible, now looked like pilgrims waiting for a pilgrimage, their faces filled with humility, reverence, and even a hint of flattery. In their hands, without exception, they held the most core and precious inheritance jade slips of their respective sects, waiting quietly.
They came voluntarily to "offer their treasures".
Rather than waiting to be attacked one by one by that evil god and lose face, it's better to take the initiative to "pay homage," at least you can still retain some dignity.
Within the Earth Spirit Sect, a once ordinary hall has been renovated and now bears a brand-new plaque—"Hall of Ten Thousand Laws".
Inside the hall, Dongfang Yueming sat calmly in the main seat, looking at the mountain of jade slips before him.
These represent the culmination of wisdom and Martial Dao expertise accumulated by all the surrounding sects over hundreds of years.
Without any hesitation, he immersed his divine sense in the process and began the most frantic learning and Point Allocation he had ever undertaken!
First, there are martial arts based on true qi and martial arts Inner Force.
He learned thousands of low-level martial arts techniques of different types and attributes. Although these techniques were of little use to his current level, they contained countless martial artists' ingenious ideas on the use of energy.
[Ding! You have learned the "Gale Palm", "Cloud-Piercing Finger", and "Mountain-Crushing Fist"...]
[Point Allocation! All Perfection!]
As he consumed a massive amount of points, countless martial arts insights intertwined, collided, and evolved in his mind... ultimately, they all converged into the highest level!
[Merge!]
[Ding! Detected a large number of martial arts techniques of the same origin, 'Energy Utilization', initiating fusion...]
[Fusion successful! Obtained a brand new martial art - "Qi Technique" (Perfection)!]
From then on, whether it was true qi or Inner Force, there were no more different techniques in his Central Capital, only the purest and most efficient methods of energy utilization! His "Body Technique" focused on the physical body, while this "Qi Technique" focused on energy; the two were complementary and mutually reinforcing!
Next comes the true core objective of this trip— the Grandmaster's teachings!
"Wind and Thunder Spirit-Gathering Method", "Boulder Spirit-Gathering Method", "Heavenly Heart Sword Spirit-Gathering Method", "Withered Wood Spirit-Gathering Method"...
[Point Allocation! All Perfection!]
[Merge!]
As various Grandmaster- level Divine Gathering Techniques of different attributes were integrated into Dongfang Yueming's already formed [Water and Fire Heavenly Domain], it began its final transformation!
The wind blew through the area, fueling the flames' power!
Thunder roared through the clouds, bringing with it the majesty of judgment!
The earth, formed beneath the ocean, became the foundation that suppresses everything!
Gold transforms into an indestructible blade, hidden within every attack!
Wood brings endless vitality, making the entire field more stable!
Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder... Yin, Yang!
Ultimately, all attributes and powers were perfectly integrated into that initial Yin-Yang cycle!
[Ding! Fusion successful! Obtained a brand new cultivation technique - "Three Origins Return to One Art" (Grandmaster Edition)!]
("Three Elements" refers to essence, energy, and spirit, and also implicitly corresponds to heaven, earth, and man. It is the general principle of Martial Dao in the secular world.)
At this moment, his realm was no longer a simple world of energy, but had evolved into a more stable and profound... World Prototype!
Finally, there's the Grandmaster level of martial arts!
"Wind and Thunder Invocation", "Boulder Seal", "Heavenly Heart Sword Intent", "Withered Wood Entanglement"...
[Point Allocation! All Perfection!]
[Merge!]
All the Martial Dao True Intent ultimately transformed into nourishment, absorbed by the "Two Aspects Seal" which contained the ultimate principles of Yin and Yang!
The merged Two Aspects Seal, with each use, seems to draw upon the power of all attributes within this nascent World Prototype! A single strike unleashes wind and thunder, water and fire, the earth itself, and metal and wood in harmony! Its power is now incomparable to what it once was!
When Dongfang Yueming slowly opened his eyes, the entire Hall of Ten Thousand Laws fell silent.
He no longer possessed any earth-shattering aura. All his power and true intentions had been completely withdrawn, returning him to his original simplicity.
At this moment, he has truly reached the pinnacle of mortal Martial Dao — the Grandmaster Limit!
