Martial research master

The fire energy sensed by Lu Ming instantly rose to the earthen level and touched the Heavenly level. The people around were surprised to see the speed with which the fire Heavenly law was activated. 

"He is quite talented in fire arts to have activated the Heavenly layer so fast." The Qi Monarch was still doubtful of Lu Ming's body. He could already feel multiple law powers being emitted. Lu Ming's explanation regarding the treasure was the only explanation viable at the moment.

"Something feels odd." The Qi monarch tried to delve deeper, but Lu Ming suddenly interrupted him. "It's time for an ancestor to provide me with soul energy."

The Qi Monarch didn't have time to think anymore. Transfering soul energy was a very taxing task. He couldn't risk being distracted, as it would directly harm his soul.

Lu Ming's body was suddenly flooded with soul energy from a Qi Monarch and began to formulate the formation. He used all the laws present within his body to formulate the same type of formation he used last time the avatar broke through with body laws.

The formation which was formulated this time was extremely complex and much more powerful than the last time. The law energy entering Lu Ming's body was digested and converted into his power extremely quickly.

The Qi Monarch was shocked after visualizing the speed of the breakthrough. He was starting to believe Lu Ming's word about him having a treasure that could help in the formulation of law energy.

"Just what sort of monstrous figure created a treasure like that. It must be something from ancient times. Even then, the previous owner of this treasure has to be a top-level figure.

Just as he was trying to figure the mystery behind the treasure, Lu Ming's fire energy law base finally settled down. He had managed to acquire the fire Heavenly law now. He tried to break the barrier to Chaos law once again but failed in doing so. He was now switching to the next type of law energy, wood.

Suddenly, life energy around the mountain began to behave awkwardly and increased greatly. The observers around the mountain were astounded. The person was connecting with another law energy. Lu Ming's life energy started to break through the earthen level and reached the Heavenly level. He tried to force it to rise even more and break the barrier to Chaos law again but failed once again.

"Dual-Law cultivator. He sure is quite talented. But brother Tianwu is also a dual Law cultivator. How come the valley master and protector are so biased against him." One f the inner disciple spoke up.

"It seems to be the fact that he could connect with the two of core laws related to alchemy, fire and wood. Although brother Tiianwu is also a dual law cultivator, he only connected with fire and earth. That is way below this guy. He is more compatible with the path of alchemy." Another inner disciple interjected.

"The only disciples who could compete with this guy are those monsters who reign over the core disciples. I even heard there is someone within the core level who has managed to connect with two heavenly laws and 5 earthen laws. He is even more talented than the great elder, who is also a dual law user."

"HI heard that he has also managed to connect with a compound law. Compound laws are way difficult to understand and connect to

"How many earthen laws do you think this guy can connect with?"

"He is surely going to connect with at least two."

"I would say three." The disciples watching Lu Ming's breakthrough were busy discussing his progress.

Now that the two remaining basic elemental laws were connected with Lu Ming had to choose which compound laws to connect with. Out of all the compound laws, the law which Lu Ming was the most familiar with was the ying-yang laws.

"Should I try to connect with Ying-Yang laws?"

Lu Ming began to implement his understanding o ying-yang. The art of reversal, the ying-yang attacks within his Dominator arts, all came into his mind and began to increase his understanding of Ying-yang.

Ying-yang was a set of complementary law in a single entity. It was a law, whose composition not only complimented each other but also were opposites to each other. Yin was cold, while yang was hot. Yin was dark while yang was bright. Yin was black while Yang was white.

Li Meng began to practice his art while amid the formation. The four QI Emperors were instantly shocked on seeing this.

"What is this brat trying to do? If he wants to stabilise his base, he should do it after finishing his breakthrough. What is the soaking up the energy for." The Teng family patriarch was dissatisfied with Lu Ming's action. 

"Don't disturb him." The QI Monarch suddenly spoke up. When the three figures looked at him, they saw a pale figure, who was sweating all over, trying to maintain his supply of soul energy to Lu Ming. They were surprised on seeing the scene.

"Are you okay Martial-uncle?" The valley master couldn't help but ask.

"Concentrate on maintaining the formation. He is trying to connect with one of the most powerful compound laws there is. We can't risk being distracted at the moment."

"What is the trying to connect with?" Ti Shen was worried about Lu ming's action.

"He is trying to connect with Yin-Yang laws. He trying to use up the energy being supplied to him and convert them into two opposite but complementary law power sets. If he is capable enough of stabilising the two sets, he would be able to gain a proper understanding of the Yin-Yang power. He could then use the knowledge to connect with the Yin-Yang Heavenly law."

The three figures were astounded. They knew how powerful a compound law was. How could they not understand the difficulty faced by Lu Ming in his action of trying to connect with it.

..........

The Keeper was busy controlling the artefact within Lu Ming's body and absorb the law energy. It was slowly repairing itself. Due to the continuous break-through of Long Tao's avatar, a huge number of cracks on the artefact had been healed up. A lot of law energy was being consumed, but it was worth it.

"Do you think that the artefact would level up any time soon?"

"The artefact might go through a qualitative change by the time you complete the break-through of all your avatars."

"You mean it would enhance into a Monarch level weapon." Long Tao was astounded by the Keeper's words.

"It would directly breakthrough to the peak of Qi Monarch type of weapon. Once it manages to reach the level of a Monarch weapon, or yellow grade, it would open up all its functionality to you. You would be able to use the artefact to attack.

"It would also be able to start energy on its own. You wouldn't need to act as an intermediate medium for it to absorb law energy anymore. It could now separate itself from your body and leave out to find resources to mend itself on its own."

Long Tao couldn't help but be happy. Finally, a qualitative change was going to occur within the artefact. He would be able to use it as a weapon for attacking. He couldn't help but think about the possible way of using the artefact.,

"What form of attack could I use?"

"It would be revealed to you once you break through the Qi Emperor. An attack from, a weapon such as the Crimson world artefact is no small matter. You wouldn't be able to handle the Qi drain for more than one time even when you reach the Qi Emperor level"

"Did you manage to gain an understanding of the Yin-Yang laws?" The Keeper asked.

"I have reached near completion. If I can completely set the two opposite set of energies, I would formally be able to set the Yin-Yang law base."

"I congratulate you for connecting another triad of laws."

"Why are you congratulating? I am going to connect with another law at least." Long tao sounded irritated. How could the Keeper make fun of him like this?

"You will understand once you connect with Yin-Yang laws. I should have said this to you before your break-through, but I didn't think you would try to connect with Yin-Yang laws." The Keeper sounded de-spirited.

Long Tao couldn't help but feel that something was wrong with the Keeper's expression. What did he mean by connecting with Yin-Yang laws? Was something going to happen.

..............................….

Lu Ming managed to complete the two sets of energy with the help of the formation. The Qi Monarch's face was completely pale as of now. He was at his last means. He wouldn't be able to supply soul energy for much longer. He was still happy that Lu Ming managed to connect with Yin-Yang laws, but he sadly knew that it was going to be the one do the process.

"The law backlash of Yin-Yang was too difficult for cultivators to handle, especially when the cultivator had already tried to connect with two other Heavenly laws. Lu Ming wouldn't be able to continue his breakthrough anymore.

As the last bit of his soul energy was expended, Lu Ming finally managed to set up the two set of energies within his body. He managed to formulate a law base. Lu Ming finally managed to set up the Yin-Yang law base. The law backlash arrived instantly
