Martial Research Master-Chapter 292

292 QUAD LAW BREAKTHROUGH-(3)- THE BACKLASH

Suddenly all the energies within Lu Ming’s body went wild. It was as if all the energies that conflicted with each other suddenly started attacking. His body started to swell up, and his skin turned bright red.

“What is happening to him?” Ti Shen was flabbergasted.

“I have read about this in an ancient record of our library. The law he connected to Yin-Yang, is said to have a terrifying backlash on the user’s body. It is rumoured that every law energy within your body would go berserk when encountering its opposite within your body.”

“The main reason for it being so scary is the fact that the laws needn’t be from your law base, any law can do. Your body is a complex composite of many laws, and hence the scare of this backlash. If the user is not capable enough of controlling the outcome they are going to because of the Qi burst.” The Qi Monarch said.

” I never saw him using any kind of Yin-Yang arts. Just how did he manage to set up a law base.” Ti Shen was thinking.

“He must have come across a very powerful art which constitutes of Yin-yang properties. There is no known art having Yin-yang power below Emperor level, hence either he manages to get his hands on an ancient beginners art, or he had practised multiple arts which had pieces of Yin-yang within them.”

“I don’t remember there being any such art in our library.” Ti Shen pondered over the source of this art.

“There was an art. It is called the art of reversal. If he managed to master that art, he might have been able to grasp the meaning of ying-yang.” The Qi Monarch spoke.

“The art of reversal.” Ti Shen tried to remember. True to the monarch’s words, he did saw Lu Ming practising the art of reversal once. He didn’t practice it and hence wasn’t aware of its qualities. To his surprise, this manages to help Lu Ming understand the base of Yin-Yang.

.....

“This is where his breakthrough ends. He wouldn’t be able to continue it while experiencing the backlash of Yin-Yang laws. According to what I know, the conflicting energies within the user’s body begin to act against each other. The body will go through a series of energy bursts.”

“So he needs to concentrate on maintaining his body and control the energy released by the conflicting bursts. He wouldn’t be able to keep up his breakthrough.”

“Exactly.” The Qi Monarch was happy that Lu Ming managed to connect with three Heavenly laws and one of them was Yin-Yang. But he wouldn’t be able to connect with any more laws as the backlash was too terrifying.

........................

“What is happening to the body?” Long Tao was worried.

“That is the backlash of laws. Every law that a Qi General connect to comes with a backlash. That is why it is extremely difficult to continue to connect with multiple laws while breakthrough.”

“Some laws come with minor backlashes, such as elemental laws and there are some whose backlash is extremely scary. Yin-Yang laws are of the second category. They come with a tremendous backlash. Your avatar can’t continue with his breakthrough. He needs to stop here and stabilize his body condition.”

“I should be able to do something.” Long Tao continue to observe the condition of LU Ming’s body. The break-through conditions were diminishing as time was passing, and yet Lu Ming was busy controlling Qi bursts within his body. Just how do you prevent this from happening? I want to connect with one more law.

“The energies within your bodies are going to grow in conflict as long as they are present. You can’t stop the process once it has started.”

The Keeper remembered the scriptures he had in storage. There was no known way to negate the effects of the backlash of Yin-yang laws.

“There is a way.” Long Tao’s eyes had a tinge of insanity in them. He looked at the Keeper and said. ” what if I have no energy left within my body?”

“Are you insane boy? Do you think no one other than you thought of this way? There is a reason why cultivator needs to experience the backlash. They could only get the blessing when they experience the backlash.”

“If you empty your body, you will be forfeiting the backlash, and hence wouldn’t be receiving the blessing of yin-yang laws.”

“I don’t need the blessings at the moment. I could always power the base up once I have attained the Qi King realm. What more important is to connect with one more law at the very least.”

“The blessing from a compound law is very high. Especially Yin-Yang. It would directly push the cultivation of yours into the 7th layer of Qi King.”

“I can always cultivate within Qi King realm. Connecting to law is more important.”

The Keeper couldn’t help but sigh. There was a hidden smile on his face. Long Tao chooses the correct option after all.

The Pill Valley-

“Master!!!!” Lu Ming shouted at the top of his lungs.

“What is it? Are you okay? Should I intervene and help you?” Ti Shen was nervous about Lu Ming’s condition.

“I want you to believe in me. No matter what I do next, don’t intervene with the process.” Lu Ming said with serious eyes.

Ti Shen couldn’t help but frown. What was Lu Ming talking about? He saw Lu Ming’s struggling face and after a short moment of thought, he nodded his head. No matter what happens, he would support Lu Ming.

Lu Ming instantly began to exert every single ounce of energy within his body. Soon enough all the energy was drained, leaving an extremely pale-looking figure within the formation.

‘The brat is playing with fire here.” The QI Monarch spoke in a grim tone.

“What is he trying to do uncle.”

“he is trying to drain every ounce of energy within his body to forfeit backlash.” The Qi Monarch declared. ” I suspect he would then use the formation to continue to connect with another law.”

“That seems to be a feasible idea.” Ti Shen spoke.

“it is not you idiot. By forfeiting the backlash, he is also forfeiting the blessing of Yin-yang laws. Also, the energy drain would result in most of his energy being drained out. If he can’t sustain his body within the transition process, he will die.”

Ti Shen felt a shiver down his body. How could this brat such a huge risk? He didn’t want Lu ming to risk his life to connect with four laws. It was just stupid. He wouldn’t be able to use the power if he is not alive at the end of the day.

Ti Shen tried to move towards the formation to prevent Lu ming from following up with the plan.

“Stop. Let him continue with his plan., It is too late for us to intervene anyway. If he lives, he will be the first Quad-law King in the pill valley since the founder. If he dies, then it is his fate.”

Lu Ming managed to rain most of his energy, and in the last moments, the backlash finally ended.

“Finally. I guess I can try sensing another law with the help of the energy from the array.” Lu Ming began to absorb the energy from the array.

“Did you manage to certain the law you are going to connect with?” The Keeper spoke up.

“Gale laws.” Long Tao said with a confident tone.

“Another compound law. Although gale isn’t as dangerous and complex as Yin-yang, it is still a compound law. Combined with the fact that you have never even trained in art which could help you sense its power, just why are you taking the risk?”

“Gale is constituted of wind and earth intent. Those are the oldest laws I have connected to and the laws I know most about. Don’t you think it would be a good option to go for?”

“Your body might not be able to handle the backlash.”

“I have to try.”

................................

The Qi Monarch closed his eyes to concentrate on recovering soul energy when he suddenly felt something nearby. He opened his eyes and looked at Lu ming with an astound expression.

“He is trying to connect with another law. He succeeded in abandoning the Yin-yang law backlash. We might be up for some good news today.” He couldn’t help but smile. The boy stood up to his claims. A fourth law vision was breaking out.

“Does uncle knows which law this is?” The valley master couldn’t help but ask.

“Gale laws.” A murderous tone was heard from Ti Shen. The three figures looked at Ti Shen, whose eyes went bloodshot. Teng patriarch and Valley master weren’t able to understand what the matter was, but the Qi Monarch did.

“Just how could I forget the tragedy all those years ago. That bastard’s main law was gale after all.” The Qi Monarch could only sigh in regret. The very fact that Lu Ming has now chosen gale laws meant that some huge turmoils are going to occur within the sect.

The Law vision presented itself and directly shot up to the Heavenly layer. Lu Ming began to repeat some movements just like he did when connecting with Yin-Yang laws. His movements were extremely slow due to the lack of energy, but his understanding was increasing by the second.

He decided to use his soul energy to fuel the formation and digest the Qi of Gale laws. He continued his trials. Soule energy was continuously expended, but the law energy couldn’t be used. Almost half his soul energy was already wasted, but the formation only showed a slight movement.

“It will all work out in the end.” Lu Ming stayed positive and continued to fuel it. Finally, at the brink of complete exhaustion, the formation began to devour the law energy and the law base of gale laws was formed within Lu Ming’s body.

His eyes were filled with exhaustion, and he lost his consciousness. It was the same time when the law blessings began.

...........................

“He will not be able to absorb the law blessings. What should we do?” The valley master asked. Lu Ming was bound to become the biggest character of their valley sooner or later.

“Use the formation to lock the law blessing power. Leave his body inside. Although it would be slow, the body will absorb the blessing on its own. As to what level he manages to promote into, depends on his abilities and fate.”

The whole mountain was sealed and Lu Ming was left within it. He had finally managed to become a Quad-law King.
