836 Item, Divine Power! (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xiao Shi felt that it was best for him to have a ninth-stage Martial Dao treasure other than the Eye of the Emperor Judgment before he fought the Martial Emperor.

He arrived at the fifteenth level of the Myriad Treasure Pagoda. It was also the first level of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao. Ever since the Myriad Treasure Pagoda became Xiao Shi’s exclusive item, every time he broke through in his realm, the Myriad Treasure Pagoda would open up a new level. Now, he had already opened the 15th level. It was the first level of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.

On this level, Xiao Shi saw a ninth-stage Martial Dao treasure born from the Myriad Treasure Pagoda. It was a bead. However, after Xiao Shi carefully checked the use of this bead, he realized that this ninth-stage Martial Dao treasure was not very helpful for him to fight the Martial Emperor next.

He decided to reconstruct this ninth-stage Martial Dao treasure. Although it would consume all the treasures in the Myriad Treasure Pagoda during the reconstruction, it could reconstruct a treasure most suitable for Xiao Shi.

However, before reconstruction, Xiao Shi first thought about his reconstruction direction.

“What I lack now is undoubtedly a weapon in the ninth realm of the Martial Dao. But I’m not good at a single type of weapon. Instead, I’m proficient in most weapons. The usage of weapons mainly depends on the Qianqi Dao Slash. However, the drawback of the Qianqi Dao Slash is that the weapons used every time it is used will be consumed.”

Xiao Shi understood that if he wanted to reconstruct a weapon, he definitely could not reconstruct a single type of weapon. For example, if he reconstructed a sword at the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, just this sword alone could not execute the Qianqi Dao Slash. Moreover, even if he used the Qianqi Dao Slash, it would immediately consume the newly reconstructed sword. It could only be used once.

With the rarity of a ninth-stage weapon, it wasn’t worth it if it could only be used once.

“In other words, if I want to reconstruct a weapon, this weapon has to have the function of continuous regeneration. I don’t have to worry about it being consumed after one use. Secondly, there can’t be a single type of weapon. The Qianqi Dao Slash needs to be formed by many different weapons. If it’s only a single type of weapon, I can’t use the Qianqi Dao Slash.”

After understanding the key point, Xiao Shi realized that it was difficult to complete his ideal reconstruction with the ninth-stage Martial Dao treasure in his hand.

The item reconstruction of the Myriad Treasure Pagoda could not exceed the level of the item. If the ability of the remodeled item exceeded the scope of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, the remodeling would fail and this treasure would shatter.

Although items at the ninth realm of the Martial Dao already had a very high upper limit in terms of abilities, it was far from reaching the point where he could visualize and reconstruct it at will. Therefore, if he wanted to reconstruct this item, the ninth-stage Martial Dao treasure in his hand was definitely not enough.

“I still need the Holy Weapon Forging Furnace.”

Xiao Shi’s eyes flashed. He had a bold idea. He decided to reconstruct the ninth­stage Martial Dao treasure in his hand with the Holy Weapon Forging Furnace. He thought that only by combining these two treasures at the ninth realm of the Martial Dao could he reconstruct the most ideal item.

He began to combine and reconstruct these two items. Although this was the first time such a reconstruction had happened to Xiao Shi, he felt that the chances of success were still very high.

Under the combination of these two items, Xiao Shi successfully reconstructed a black weapon box. The weapon box was diamond-shaped, and only two meters long and wide.

“It worked!” Xiao Shi’s eyes were burning. This weapon box was the most ideal ninth-realm weapon he had reconstructed. Its main usage was that it could spew out all kinds of ninth-level weapons from it. It was equivalent to a forging furnace that could continuously forge weapons at the ninth realm.

When Xiao Shi needed to use weapons, he could form various ninth-stage weapons through the weapon box. He did not have to worry about the types of weapons. At the same time, the grades of these weapons would all be divine weapons at the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.

However, the forging of these weapons required Xiao Shi to use his Slaughter Origin as the forging material. Therefore, the number of weapons that could be forged in a certain period of time was very limited.

But he believed that it was enough for him to use in a short period of time. He really wanted to see what kind of power the Qianqi Dao Slash used by many ninth-stage Martial Dao divine weapons would have. Now, he had items and weapons at the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.

What he lacked now was a divine power of the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.

Usually, divine powers at the ninth realm of the Martial Dao could only be created by oneself. He could not obtain the divine powers of others. Even if he killed them and dropped the divine powers of other Ninth Realm experts, he would not be able to cultivate them. After all, the origins grasped by every ninth realm martial artist were different.

For example, the divine power created by the Martial Emperor with the Origin of Extermination could only be used with the Origin of Extermination. It was impossible for the Slaughter Origin to use such a divine power.

“So, I need to create a slaughter divine power that belongs to me.” Xiao Shi slowly closed his eyes and sank into meditation. He recalled the past, recalled every battle and every killing since he stepped onto the path of a martial artist.

All the memories surfaced in his mind. All of his aura and the fluctuations of his cultivation base were withdrawn at that moment. They no longer revealed themselves. Instead, they filled his body. At that moment, his thoughts slowly sank into calmness. There was no joy or sadness.

As early as when Xiao Shi had grasped the Slaughter Rules, he had already had the intention to gather the killing intent of all living beings on the Tianwu Continent into himself. After all, as long as it was a living being, it would have killing intent.

As long as he could trigger the killing intent of all living beings and gather all the killing intent on himself, he could form a powerful killing power. However, at the current ninth realm of the Martial Dao, Xiao Shi felt that just the killing intent of all living beings was far from enough.

Even if it could increase his strength to a certain extent, it was not enough to reach the level of a slaughter divine power.

“What else is stronger than the killing intent of all living beings?” Xiao Shi fell into deep thought. After a long time, his eyes suddenly opened, filled with understanding and excitement. “If I can trigger the killing intent of this world, the killing intent of the world’s will, then this killing intent will definitely surpass everything!”

Xiao Shi’s heart burned. Now that he had reached the ninth realm, he understood why there was still a Martial God above the ninth realm. Although the ninth realm of the Martial Dao already had the authority of the Tianwu Continent, he only had the authority to control the body of a giant like the Tianwu Continent.

The Martial God could control the body, and also had to become the will of the giant that dominated the Tianwu Continent. In other words, he would replace the will of the Tianwu World. Only by replacing the will of the Tianwu World could he become the Martial God of the Tianwu World.

Before the birth of the Martial God, the highest existence in the Tianwu Continent was the will of the world. If he could trigger the killing intent of the world’s will, such a divine power was definitely earth-shattering. It was far from what the killing intent of all living beings could compare to.

However, the prerequisite was that Xiao Shi had to be able to withstand the killing intent of the world’s will. After all, after he triggered the killing intent, he needed to condense this killing intent on himself. If he could not withstand it, he would be the first to die.

“I have the Slaughter Origin. I should be able to withstand the killing intent of the world’s will. Even if I die, I can be reborn through the Behind-the-scenes Heavenly Dao!”

Thinking of this, Xiao Shi decisively decided to use the killing intent of the world’s will as his ninth-stage martial arts’ Slaughter Divine Power.

He named this divine power— Tianwu Divine Kill!
