Dominating Martial King-Chapter 1530 - 526: True Spirit (Background - )

Chapter 1530: Chapter 526: True Spirit (Background Chapter)

He won’t live much longer!

Moreover, when a ruler wishes his subject dead, the subject has no choice but to comply. It’s the emperor who wants him dead, not father!

Just as Chu Ming’s thoughts were racing, a celestial figure with white hair and eyebrows appeared before her.

It was none other than the Scripture Pavilion Grand Elder, Wang Baimei.

"Chu Ming?" With hands clasped behind him, he regarded Chu Ming with cold eyes. "What brings you here?"

Chu Ming suppressed her nervousness and bowed respectfully. "Grand Elder! As a Blood Vengeance Candidate, my cultivation and merit are sufficient, and I have come specifically to exchange for the first move of the Divine Intent Touch Death Blade."

Nearby, Lu Luanti, who was focused on his studies, paused and glanced at Chu Ming.

Wang Baimei looked Chu Ming up and down, taking note of the surprise in his eyes.

This Chu Ming’s cultivation had advanced to the Third Grade Lower Tier!

However, just over a year ago, this girl had only the cultivation of a Fifth Grade Upper.

How many resources has the Western Capital Chu Family and the Daning Court invested in her?

"So that’s how it is."

Wang Baimei’s expression remained cold. "According to sect rules, you are now allowed to exchange for this move. But your situation is special and must be handled uniquely—"

He flicked his sleeve slightly and took out a white scroll filled with writing from within: "Before exchanging the sword skill, you must sign this Divine Contract."

Lu Luanti frowned upon hearing this, showing displeasure.

However, she still endured it.

She believes that the many Grand Elders and Supreme Elders of the sect would never be so foolish.

Wang Baimei must have his reasons for doing this.

Chu Ming glanced at the scroll, and her brows furrowed as anger welled up inside her.

——Chu Xisheng doesn’t receive such treatment!

The clauses on the Divine Contract were densely packed, numbering more than thirty, with over a thousand words.

The purpose was to ensure that Chu Yun could not transmit the ’Divine Intent Blade Heart’ to anyone in any form.

Moreover, this Divine Contract was fortified with powerful spells set by fourteen First Grade sorcerers.

If Chu Yun chooses to transmit the move to others or betray the Formless Divine Sect, she will completely forget the Vengeance Blade in her mind.

Chu Ming’s brows then relaxed.

She didn’t argue, directly writing her name on the Divine Contract and forcing out her Essence Blood to press her fingerprint.

Having cultivated in the Formless Divine Sect for nearly three years, Chu Ming has grown considerably.

She knows that arguing is futile.

Her identity indeed poses a problem.

She shares a bloodline with Emperor Jianyuan and is closely connected to the court.

And now, the Formless Divine Sect and the Daning Court have drifted apart, almost openly opposing each other.

If it were her, she wouldn’t remain unguarded; she might even act more excessively.

Chu Ming doesn’t mind signing this Divine Contract.

She has no plan to betray the Formless Divine Sect for the time being. Her purpose in exchanging the ’Divine Intent Blade Heart’ is merely to oppose Chu Xisheng.

Only the Divine Intent Touch Death Blade offers her and the Western Capital Chu Family a chance to survive, and possibly, in the future, to take revenge against that scoundrel.

"Go!"

Wang Baimei retrieved the Divine Contract, examined it carefully, then flicked his sleeve: "However, your merit only allows you to observe the first page for ten hours."

Chu Ming was overjoyed, her face unwittingly breaking into a smile.

Fearing to waste time, she swiftly dashed to the northern bookshelf and picked up the book ’Divine Intent Touch Death Blade.’

Chu Ming found she could only view the content on the first page, but even the illustrations and text on that page felt like a heavy blow to her mind.

But she was prepared, immediately swallowing a crimson elixir pill.

As the pill dissolved inside her, Chu Ming noticed her consciousness becoming exceptionally clear and sharp.

The complex illustrations and texts on the book also became simpler.

She immersed herself fully, entirely unaware of the passage of time, until Wang Baimei issued a light cough, his voice cold: "Time’s up! Chu Ming, you may leave now."

Chu Ming’s eyes expressed reluctance, but she still followed the instruction and placed the book down.

Her heart, however, was filled with joy; she had understood seventy percent of the ’Divine Intent Blade Heart,’ with the remaining thirty percent lodged in her memory.

She only needed to return and complete her studies. Following the laws of cultivation, she was confident she could master the ’Divine Intent Blade Heart’ within three months.

As Chu Ming descended the nine-story staircase, Wang Baimei clicked his tongue: "They certainly don’t hold back," he commented. "To have given her a ’Nine Orifice Bright Heart Pill,’ that item is invaluable."

Beside him, Lu Luanti looked at him in utter confusion: "Grand Elder, I don’t quite understand, why permit this girl to cultivate the ’Divine Intent Blade Heart’?"

Although the sect highly values rules and persists in the path of trustworthiness, if Wang Baimei and others did not wish for Chu Ming to master the Divine Intent Blade Heart, they had ways to prevent her from doing so without violating sect rules or moral principles.

"It’s what your Brother Chu wishes."

Wang Baimei stood with hands behind his back, smiling as ever: "He already knows what Emperor Jianyuan plans to do, so he’s glad to see it happen. It can aid him in completing the Secret Rite of Vengeance.

Moreover, he says he has already gained the favor of the Vengeful Sky Rules and is close to the ’True Spirit’ of the Vengeful Sky Rules, expected within three to five months. Even if Chu Ming or Emperor Jianyuan masters the ’Divine Intent Blade Heart,’ he can easily destroy it."

Lu Luanti was taken aback by this, then filled with joy.

Once Chu Xisheng becomes a Vengeance True Spirit, he will gain an amplification of at least four to five layers from the Vengeful Sky Rules.

And the higher Chu Xisheng’s cultivation grows, the greater this amplification will be.

Lu Luanti then smiled wryly.

This was naturally good news for Chu Xisheng.

However, his early attainment as a Vengeance True Spirit indicates how much the Vengeful Blade Lineage has declined.

"Your Brother Chu believes it’s better for Emperor Jianyuan to continue betting on a certain defeat domain, rather than redirecting his resources elsewhere. The more he invests, the greater his losses."

At this moment, Wang Baimei turned to Lu Luanti, eyes filled with anticipation and reassurance: "In any case, no need to worry! Focus on your cultivation; you still have three days. You should be able to further advance the Pingtian Sword Technique."

This girl is indeed a genius worthy of standing alongside Qin Muge and Chu Yunyun.

In merely two months, she’s managed to advance the Pingtian Sword Technique to the height of twenty layers!

Coupled with her bloodline power and magic artifact, she might push this sword technique to twenty-three layers. Such comprehension is truly astonishing.

Her cultivation progress is also surprising.

Despite being in dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, Lu Luanti has accumulated almost half of the True Essence, estimating readiness for promotion to the Third Grade Lower Tier secret medicine and ceremony in three months.

Once she forms the ’Dragon-Tiger Golden Core’ and the sorcerer’s ’Ten Thousand Magic Divine Origin,’ her True Yuan and Mana will merge, no longer hindered by dual cultivation, likely accelerating her cultivation several times faster, entering the First Grade at a superhuman pace!

The Pingtian Sword and Great Ming King Wheel, along with Lu Luanti’s numerous Super Techniques—

Wang Baimei had high expectations in his heart.

He anticipated that within the next three to five years, this girl would grow to stand alongside Chu Xisheng and Chu Yunyun, becoming the pillars of the sect!
