Chapter 1013: Truce
This battle lasted for years.
Even with Li Fuchen’s Primary Extreme Sword Dao Universe, the Swordsmen Guild was still at a disadvantage. But it was fortunate that they were in no danger of losing their lives.
Once anyone was enveloped by the god domain, they wouldn’t be able to make contact with the universe source energy. As such, there was no way to replenish energy.
Unable to replenish energy, an unparalleled lord would die very quickly. After all, even a vast amount of energy would be depleted sooner or later.
“Ice Fire God Lord, I think we should stop. If we really fight to death, it would only result in casualties on both sides.” The Taichi Sword Progenitor said to the Ice Fire God Lord.
“Your side is at complete disadvantage.” The Ice Fire God Lord snorted.
The Tachi Sword Progenitor shook his head and said, “Yes, we are at a complete disadvantage, but without a few thousand years, will you be able to kill us?”
The Taichi Sword Progenitor didn’t say an additional factor. When it was really at the brink of life and death, the Swordsmen Guild wouldn’t suffer for the sake of reputation. They would certainly request for help and would even contact the half-god from the Swordsmen Guild. By then, it wouldn’t just be a war between two power factions, it would be a war of the universe. He believed that the Ice Fire God Lord wouldn’t want it to reach that state.
“Asking for truce without paying a price?” The Dusk God Lord was enraged.
“Price? What price? Is it reasonable to snatch things from others? You can only blame yourself for being incompetent.” Li Fuchen sneered.
“You! I will remember you. I, the Dusk God Lord, swear I will not rest until I kill you!” The Dusk God Lord was fuming.
“Dusk God Lord, it’s time to stop. The Bright God Lord is still in a ruin and there is no way to contact him.”
If they were able to contact the Bright God Lord, the Ice Fire God Lord wouldn’t have agreed to a truce. It was just as what the Dusk God Lord said. Having a truce without paying a price would be too easy for the opposition. But if they continued fighting here, there would be no end. It would be better to return and discuss a plan.
Even though the Dusk God Lord was extremely unwilling, he still agreed to the truce.
“Tsk, tsk, it is too exciting. It has been so many years since there has been such an intense battle.”
“How can a battle between the Swordsmen Guild and God Hall not be exciting? The god race is truly living up to their reputation. It is fortunate that the 1st rank Bright God Lord isn’t here, otherwise the Swordsmen Guild would be in a worse condition.”
“The Primary Extreme Lord is also incredible and actually comprehended the sword dao universe. It is a necessary skill to deal with the god race’s pinnacle unparalleled lords. Without the dao universe, no one can contest against the god race’s pinnacle unparalleled lords.”
“That’s right, in order to deal with the god race’s god domain, one must have control of the dao universe. Among the top 10 rankers of the Lord Rankings, most of them are able to do so.”
After the truce between the God Hall and Swordsmen Guild, everyone was having heated discussions.
Everyone was either talking about the strength of the god race or Li Fuchen.
“This Primary Extreme Lord actually comprehend the sword dao universe?”
The Dark Soul Primogenitor and the Darkness Lord King were frowning.
Having and not having the dao universe were two completely different matters.
In the universe, whoever had control of the dao universe would hold the advantage. Fighting with such people would be the same as to face death.
“An outstanding tree is bound to be taken down. Based on the god race’s tyranny, they will not spare him.” The Wither Wood Progenitor said.
With the battle ended, the god race and all other major factions had left, leaving behind the Swordsmen Guild’s members.
“Taichi Sword Progenitor, many thanks. Everyone, many thanks.” Li Fuchen bowed and cupped his fist towards everyone.
The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor laughed and said, “This isn’t just your matter, it is the Swordsmen Guild’s matter. There is nothing to be thankful for.”
The Taichi Sword Progenitor nodded, “The Scarlet Fire Sword Progenitor is right. This is no longer a personal matter. When facing a power faction, we must work together in order to survive. But the Primary Extreme Lord, you have to be careful from now on.”
In this battle, Li Fuchen was pushed to the front of the attention and it was hard for anyone not to notice him.
“I know.” Li Fuchen nodded.
The previous World Fruit was not enough for everyone to go crazy, but with the addition of the inception copper key, there would be many who wouldn’t sit still. Of course, after knowing Li Fuchen’s strength, these people wouldn’t make their moves recklessly. They would only strike at the right opportunity.
Back to the Crosswise River Star Domain, the Crosswise River Primogenitor took the initiative to hand the inception copper key to Li Fuchen. He knew clearly that he wasn’t competent enough to hold onto the inception copper key. He would rather exchange it for a chance to comprehend the World Fruit.
After obtaining the inception copper key, Li Fuchen promised that he would allow the Crosswise River Primogenitor to comprehend the World Fruit 10,000 years later.
“Next up, it is time to properly study space-time dao.”
With the sword dao at Li Fuchen’s level, all aspects were already at an extremely high level, therefore a very long period of time was required to achieve a breakthrough.
The Primary Extreme Sword Art had already reached the late-state of star domain-level, any further would be the perfection level. Many half-gods spent billions of years and were still unable to achieve that level.
The Primary Extreme Sword Technique’s level was rather low as it was only at the low-state of the star domain-level.
But cultivation techniques were naturally harder to break through than martial arts, and the difference in difficulty wasn’t just a little.
Choosing to study the space-time dao was actually for the sake of the sword dao too. Right now, Li Fuchen’s space-time dao could accelerate space-time by 3 times for him. Once the space-time dao reached the mid-state of the star domain-level, it could accelerate Li Fuchen’s space-time more than 5 times. It would definitely help Li Fuchen save a lot of time.
Sinking into the World Fruit, Li Fuchen started a tedious cultivation.
…
“Finally broke through to superior lord level.”
With the space-time acceleration, it took a total of around 2000 years for the Immortal Lord to reach the superior lord level.
Right now, with his immortal dao’s special trait, even an unparalleled lord would have a hard time to kill him.
As for the werewolf incarnation, it was already at the regular lord level and was rushing for the superior lord level.
As for the others, including Yan Qingwu, they didn’t make much progress.
It was mainly because Li Fuchen didn’t accelerate their space-time. His principle was for an individual to reach the heaven lord level before applying the space-time acceleration.
100 years…
500 years…
1000 years…
…
Time passed by slowly. Li Fuchen realized that as his cultivation level increased, the value of time decreased. In the past, a few years would feel like a very long time to him. But now, a few hundred years or 1000 years felt like the passing clouds.
2000 years…
3000 years…
This was the longest time Li Fuchen spent in a seclusion.
“I finally broke through.” Inside the World Fruit, Li Fuchen let out a breath.
3000 years in the outside world was 9000 years after space-time acceleration. Li Fuchen’s space-time dao finally progressed from low-state to mid-state of star domain-level.
“I wonder how much space-time acceleration I can apply.” Li Fuchen started to apply the space-time acceleration for himself.
3 times, 4 times, 5 times, 6 times…
The flow of space-time constantly grew faster and it quickly exceeded Li Fuchen’s expectations.
7 times, 8 times…
10 times.
Finally, the space-time acceleration reached 10 times.
It was an exaggerating number.
After all, Li Fuchen was a pinnacle unparalleled lord and 10 times acceleration of space-time was something that not even the arris light motherstone could maintain for a long time.
The arris light motherstone might be a low-grade universe treasure, but there were also differences in sizes. A smaller motherstone would contain lesser time source essence and also a lower density. To a certain degree, it proved that space-time dao was terrifying.
“To me, 3000 years in the outside world isn’t just 9000 years, it is 30,000 years. The efficiency has increased by over 2 times.” Li Fuchen let out a smile.
With a wave of the hand, Li Fuchen accelerated space-time for the Immortal Lord and his werewolf incarnation.
After breaking through, the Immortal Lord’s space-time acceleration decreased from 20 times to 5 times. Right now, it had increased to 30 times and was even more than before.
It was the same for the werewolf incarnation. After the breakthrough, the space-time acceleration dropped from 200 times to 30 times. Right now, it was up to 250 times. The difference was far beyond the Immortal Lord.
One could see that the werewolf incarnation had a close relationship to Li Fuchen, otherwise, it wasn’t possible for the space-time acceleration to reach 250 times.
“Let me continue the comprehension.” Li Fuchen sank back into the World Fruit and continued his seclusion.
