Chapter 518 Chapter 518 – Encounter
In the past, Gunali’s performance was ordinary. Other than in the beginning, she was highly valued by the people of the Oriel family because of her bloodline. They thought that she would be a genius to revitalize the Oriel family. In reality, Gunali actually didn’t have any eye-catching performances.
It seemed that other than the time when she was young, Gunali was just like an ordinary girl. She was naive and cute. She didn’t show her strong talent, nor did she have an extraordinary will and wisdom.
But now, this extraordinary talent seemed to be shown again. After Chen Heng activated her bloodline and tried to teach her, Gunali’s talent was immediately revealed.
That kind of powerful talent was envied by many. From when Chen Heng decided to teach her until now, less than half a month had passed. How much could an ordinary person accomplish in half a month? It would probably be over in the blink of an eye.
But on Gunali’s body, a shocking change was taking place. In just half a month, Gunali had already grasped the basics of the meditation technique that Chen Heng had taught her, and she had even mastered the basic sword technique.
Such a terrifying speed surprised Chen Heng. In comparison, Mary was not valued by Chen Heng. It was only because of Gunali’s request, and her talent wasn’t too bad, that he taught her along
Compared to Gunali, Mary’s advantage was obvious. Her talent was better than expected, and relatively speaking, she was already close to the strength of an Official Martial Artist. Compared to Gunali, who had no fundamentals, she was naturally better. Moreover, she was older, seven or eight years older than Gunali. Theoretically speaking, her learning ability would be more outstanding. However, the result of her learning was the complete opposite. Gunali’s learning speed was much faster than Mary’s.
At the moment when Gunali had mastered swordsmanship, Mary, who had a basic fundamental, was just barely able to grasp it. It was only because of her strength that her performance was even more incisive.
This situation was surprising. As for the meditation technique, it was even more apparent. Gu Nali’s meditation technique had already entered the rudiments, but Mary was still at her wit’s end. Even under Chen Heng’s guidance, she had only just begun to make some progress. The difference in talent was huge. Chen Heng could only sigh at this. There was no other way. In life, sometimes things were so unfair. Gunali had a good family background, a noble bloodline, and the best talent compared to Mary. She was born with the conditions to become a strong person. Although Mary’s talent was not bad, it was only comparable to ordinary people. Compared to Gunali, she was nothing. Such was the reality, and there was no other way. However, Chen Heng himself did not care about Mary. ‘Gunali’s speed of mastering the meditation technique is somewhat unexpected….’
Chen Heng thought so when he looked at Gunali, who was drenched in sweat but was still training diligently. ‘It seems that it’s too much of a waste to let her continue the basic training and slowly polish her strength…’
In this world, regardless of the system, most cultivations needed one to polish one’s strength slowly. Martial Artists were required to enhance their bodies so that the strength of their bodies could slowly improve through training. Wizards needed to polish their minds and strengthen their spiritual power. Then, they could become stronger by learning spell templates.
The same was true for other systems. Or, this was something that ordinary people needed to become stronger. However, in Chen Heng’s opinion, it was a bit of a waste of time to let Gunali enhance her body step by step over time.
Her talent was too powerful, so much so that even the meditation technique that Chen Heng taught her could be taught so quickly. And that meditation technique itself had the power to purify the true spirit and strengthen the foundation.
When the origin was strong, it also meant that one’s level had increased. Under such circumstances, what was lacking was only the growth of the body and life level so that it would be compatible with the origin.
This was the complete opposite of ordinary people. Ordinary people are cultivated through the growth of the body or spirit, thus developing their origin and then completing the transition of the whole life level.
Gunali’s current situation was that the origin had already completed the upgrade through meditation and then brought about the growth of the body and spirit, thus completing the transition of the life level.
Under such circumstances, if she continued to polish her body and spirit, it would be a waste of time.
Chen Heng had a way to make up for this flaw and allow Gunali’s life level to rise rapidly. They were both excellent methods, whether it was the killing power or the Black King’s Sacrificial Ceremony.
If it were before, Chen Heng would still have to worry that Gunali would be affected by the killing power, causing problems to her original true spirit and causing it to collapse and fall into chaos.
But now, there was no such problem. She had already mastered the meditation technique. As long as she persevered, her origin would become purer and more natural. Under such circumstances, the minor problems caused by the killing power were no longer a problem. As long as she absorbed the right amount, the killing power wouldn’t affect her.
‘In addition, the bloodline of the Oriel family can also be used for some research…’.
Chen Heng looked at Gunali in front of him and thought to himself.
Although the Mark of Despair that he had developed could not be used entirely on Gunali, it could be used to catalyze the powerful bloodline in Gunali’s body. It was also feasible to tap into some of her potential.
With this two-pronged approach, Gunali should be able to become stronger at the fastest speed possible. Moreover, there would not be too many hidden dangers left behind.
Of course, there would still be some effects even if there were so many. Under normal circumstances, Chen Heng did not want to help Gunali grow up so quickly.
It was just that this was not an ordinary time. Ever since Lu Yao stepped into the galaxy, the general trend of this world had already begun.
In the long period that followed, the situation of this world would inevitably undergo a drastic change. When that time came, the storm would affect many places.
In this kind of great world, any bit of time was precious and could not be wasted. Gunali was not like Lu Yao. Lu Yao was a person born in this era with heaven’s blessing. She had the help of destiny and could turn a dangerous situation into a safe one. She could even have fortuitous encounters and continuously become stronger in a problematic situation.
Gu Nali, however, could not. She was not the main character that was born in this era. She did not have the protection of destiny. In this era, if she did not work hard to become stronger, she would probably die young if she was not careful.
Moreover, Chen Heng did indeed need power in his hands at this moment. After careful calculation, when he had descended into the Hechi Star, his subordinates had already grasped quite a bit of power.
The Red Lotus Society, as well as the Oriel family, was led by Marikado. Among these factions, some were comparable to the Fifth Rank, and some were at the peak of the Fourth Rank.
However, compared to the factions that Chen Heng might face in the future, it was not worth mentioning. After all, Chen Heng’s future enemies were not others, but the high and mighty Round Table, the Five Knights that roamed the galaxy.
The strength of Malikado and the others were not bad compared to ordinary people, but they were nothing compared to the Five Knights. Even though his plan was to strengthen his subordinates, he needed Gunali to strengthen up as soon as possible.
Under Chen Heng, she was the only person who had the hope of reaching the Fifth Rank. Of course, there was no need to be too anxious even so. This world was massive. The influence of the opening of the great world also needed time to ferment slowly.
No matter what, there were still a few decades of time. Chen Heng did not need to be too anxious. Thinking this, Chen Heng raised his head and looked at Gunali in front of him.
Under the Golden Dragon Tree, Gu Nali held a wooden sword in her hand. She was trying her best to swing it, and the sweat on her body was constantly flowing, but it did not stop.
Chen Heng looked at the scene in front of him with a smile. After an unknown time, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky above him.
“This unique feeling…”
He raised his head and looked at the sky. At this moment, he seemed to have sensed something. “Interesting…
“Did the two of them bump into each other?”
Chen Heng muttered to himself. At that moment, he seemed to have thought of something interesting, and a smile appeared on his face.
Bang!
The moment Chen Heng raised his head, a battle was also beginning in another part of the galaxy.
Boom!
An intense sound erupted. It shattered the nine heavens and stomped on the ground as if it wanted to wipe out the entire planet. Upon closer inspection, one could see that this was a satellite that had lost its life force.
There had been no life in this place before, and there was no oxygen for humans to breathe. It was a land of death that lived up to its name. And at this moment, a great battle was breaking out in this place that had never been any life before.
Two figures were facing each other, and they were looking at each other at this moment.
Lu Yao was wearing the Ancient Armor, and green light blossomed all over her body. She had transformed her entire body into a divine domain. No attack would be able to pierce through the domain, no matter how mighty the power was. At this point, her strength was already mighty, genuinely standing at the Fourth Rank. Although the Fourth Rank was nothing in the eyes of many peak existences, it was not Lu Yao’s true combat strength.
There was still the Ancient Armor and the Golden Mark on her body. These two combined strengths were enough to suppress a Fifth Rank for a short period, reaching an even more terrifying level.
However, even with such a level, there was no way to defeat the person in front of her. That was because the person in front of Lu Yao was even more terrifying. The smell of blood filled the air. In front of them, a bloody domain enveloped everything, blocking their vision in front of them. It was a desolate scene. As that person’s aura spread out, blood shadows filled the sky.
Blood shadows looked as if they were howling in pain but also as if they were roaring in fear. It brought out the terror and power of the figure in the center. Standing under the blood shadows was a tall and sturdy man.
The man was wearing a suit of armor. It looked like a replica of an Ancient Armor. His body was sturdy and looked very valiant. However, what surprised people the most was his eyes. There was a hint of blood in them as if there was a sea of blood, which was particularly terrifying
The smell of blood on his body was powerful enough to make people feel terrified. Even standing beside him, they could feel the strong feeling that came at them. “Wang Zhong!” Facing the man in front of her, Lu Yao’s face was a little angry. At this moment, she roared, “It’s really you!”
“Who else could it be other than me?”
After seeing Lu Yao, Wang Zhong’s expression quickly returned to a cold and stern look. He spoke coldly, his voice carrying an inexplicable coldness.
“Those people from before, were they all killed by you?”
Seeing Wang Zhong, Lu Yao took a deep breath and then spoke.
“What else could it be?”
Wang Zhong did not deny Lu Yao’s words and directly admitted, “They’re just a bunch of trash. Even if they slaughtered the entire planet, they wouldn’t be able to increase my strength by much…
“There’s such a weak race in this world.”
As he spoke, his tone was somewhat disdainful.
“You!”
Hearing Wang Zhong’s words, Lu Yao was unprecedentedly furious. In the past year or so, not only had Lu Yao’s reputation soared, but as the reincarnation of the Golden King and a person wanted by the Round Table, wherever she went, she would attract the attention of the Round Table. Thus, her reputation had soared in a short period, attracting the attention of countless civilizations.
And the other person whose reputation had soared was the person before him, Wang Zhong. As someone born on Qika Star like Lu Yao, Wang Zhong had already been noticed when the Crimson Knight had descended, and he had directly entered the Round Table.
His ability to rapidly increase his strength through killing had attracted the interest of many people. After all, this ability was too powerful. Although it had the flaw of easily distorting one’s mind, it was nothing in this galaxy
It was not limited to the power of technology or some secret treasures. They all had effects in this aspect and could be improved. However, the ability to increase one’s strength was rare.
Within the Round Table, many high-ranked officials were interested in Wang Zhong’s ability and wanted to see what his limit was.
Therefore, during this one year, under the arrangement of the Round Table, Wang Zhong walked into the starry battlefield and became active in many places.
He was very ruthless when he started killing. Once he entered the battlefield, he was like a demon god. Because the slaughtering divinity became increasingly stronger, his strength increased in the process of killing.
When he entered the battlefield, he was like a god of war. He did not feel tired at all. Whether it was weakness, injuries, or anything else, he could easily make up for it by killing. He would not become weak at all. Because of this, in just over a year, Wang Zhong had made a name for himself. In many weak civilizations, his reputation had spread. He was known as the Blood Demon God. As long as he appeared, it would mean slaughter and destruction.
A
He had also succeeded in living up to everyone’s expectations. Under the expectations of the high-ranked officials of the Round Table, he had grown all the way until
now.
A year ago, he was only at the Third Rank. But now, in just a year, he had surpassed the Fourth Rank, advancing to the Fifth Rank. Even among the Fifth Rank, he was not weak. He was very powerful and had accumulated a lot of experience.
This was not his limit. From his performance, it seemed that he could not see the limit of his strength. No matter how powerful he was, he could still play a role.
In the Round Table meeting, Wang Zhong was definitely the most dazzling person in the Round Table meeting. Some of the Five Knights even thought that he had the potential to reach the level of the Five Knights.
After all, with his unique killing ability, it was not impossible for him to reach the level of the Five Knights through continuous killing in the future. And some time ago, as a member of the Round Table meeting, he came after Lu Yao to kill her.
Along the way, he had caused a lot of killing. Anyone who had taken Lu Yao in or had a good relationship with Lu Yao, their families, and countries were attacked by Wang Zhong and directly slaughtered.
Such cruel and terrifying methods made many people’s hearts tremble. It also made Lu Yao furious.
“You have killed so many people. Aren’t you afraid of retribution?”
She stood where she was, protecting leaf and the others behind her as she questioned and roared at Wang Zhong. “Retribution?”
In front of them, the smell of blood rose. It was as if an abyss had descended on the human world.
Wang Zhong was among them. When he heard Lu Yao’s words, he could not help but let out a maniacal laugh. His voice spread out like thunder and resounded throughout the entire planet.
“What a joke!”
After a long while, he stopped laughing and said coldly, “They are just some ants. Do you dare to say that you have never killed them?
“Humans eat fish, and birds eat insects. It is only proper. What is there to be afraid of retribution?
“If I am stronger than them, that is their sin!”
His voice thundered in all directions, shaking the entire planet and distorting the space around him.
“How can you kill as you like and take their lives just because you are stronger than them?”
Lu Yao’s face was cold. “Then, if someone is stronger than you in the future, can he do the same to you?”
“Of course.”
Wang Zhong nodded calmly. “This is the world. The strong prey on the weak. Why not?
“If I’m going to die in the future, it will be because someone is stronger than me, not some retribution!”
Wang Zhong smiled cruelly and revealed a sinister smile. “In order not to be weaker than others, I have to kill more people and make myself stronger!”
“You…”
Lu Yao looked at Wang Zhong in front of her and sighed deeply. “You have already fallen into the evil path.
“Back then, my elder brother should have slapped you to death.”
She recalled the past and the battle between Chen Heng and Wang Zhong back then. She could not help but sigh.
“Him?”
Hearing Lu Yao’s words, Wang Zhong was also stunned. Then, he shook his head and said frankly, “He is indeed stronger than me.
“Whether it was in the past or now, I have never been stronger than him.”
Chen Heng’s strength was even stronger than his back then. And in that battle back then, Chen Heng’s strength was even enough to fight against the Crimson Knight. That kind of power was terrifying, and Wang Zhong had witnessed it with his own eyes.
He admitted that even though the current him was no longer the same as before, he was definitely still no match for Chen Heng back then.
But so what?
