"Upgrading from a beginner Profound Meaning to an advanced one?"
Ming Yu went back to the base camp to cultivate while Lu Li was still thinking about it.
As far as he knew, a Profound Meaning was a Profound Meaning and its power would be fixed after it was mastered. But Lu Li didn't know that Profound Meanings could be upgraded.
This opened a new window for Lu Li. So, both the Mirror Image Profound Meaning and Speed Profound Meaning could be upgraded?
Ming Yu's understanding of Profound Meanings was still low. Lu Li couldn't figure it out so he went to Qu Cheng and Hu Lang to ask.
"Buzzing!"
Hearing Lu Li's question, Hu Lang waved his hand. A transparent shield came out and enveloped Lu Li and the Human Sovereign Realm warriors, cutting off any sound.
Hu Lang said, "State Councilor, we will not tell you about Profound Meanings until you reach the Human Sovereign Realm.
If you can't reach the Human Sovereign Realm, you will never become a real powerful warrior. It is pointless to know too much. "
The other Human Sovereign Realm warriors nodded. Hu Lang continued, "State Councilor, since you have asked, I will give you a brief explanation.
Profound Meanings are the embodiment of laws in heaven and earth. There are nine ranks. The higher the rank of the Profound Meaning, the more profound the understanding of laws in heaven and earth. "
"Beginner Profound Meanings are merely the surface of laws in heaven and earth. Naturally, their powers are limited. Advanced Profound Meanings require a deeper understanding of laws in heaven and earth. One can borrow more power from heaven and earth and the more powerful they are."
"Since they are all about understanding laws in heaven and earth, there are similarities between beginner Profound Meanings and advanced Profound Meanings.
As a matter of fact … many beginner Profound Meanings can be upgraded to advanced Profound Meanings. In order to learn advanced Profound Meanings, one must learn beginner Profound Meanings first.
Some advanced Profound Meanings can have an epiphany directly but some must be learned by combining the beginner Profound Meanings. "
"For example, the seventh-rank Spatial Sealing Profound Meaning your guy learned must first learn Force before he can have a chance to learn Spatial Sealing.
For example, the Armor of Earth that your grandfather comprehended is a powerful grade eight defensive Ultimacy. However, he didn't comprehend this Ultimacy directly. Instead, he comprehended two grade six Ultimacies and then fused them … "
After Hu Lang's explanation, Lu Li had a basic understanding of Profound Meanings. He pondered for a while to digest the information.
"Whoosh ~"
Lu Li was about to ask more questions when he heard a noise from the distance. Ye Cha's voice came, "Everyone, retreat to the valley. A Fire Leopard King is alarmed. Now!"
"Retreat!"
Lu Li came back to his senses. He flew up and shouted. The Fire Leopard King was comparable to a Human Sovereign Realm warrior. Average Noble Lord Realm warriors would die in a fight against it.
"Whoosh, whoosh ~"
Hu Lang and the others leaped into the air and stood in a fan formation, waiting for the Fire Leopard King to appear.
"Retreat!"
Ke Mang waved his hand regretfully. The Primordial Divine Formation hadn't been set up yet.
These divine formations had been set up to deal with the Fire Leopard King. So many resources had been wasted, but nothing had been accomplished.
The more than 1000 warriors filed into the valley. Lu Ling asked some powerful Noble Lord Realm warriors to stay at the entrance while the others went to the base camp.
At the same time, he ordered everyone in the base camp to stop cultivating and get ready to retreat to the Deserted World.
"Roar ~"
An earth-shaking roar came from afar. At the other end of the plain, a gigantic Fire Leopard was rushing over along with a group of Fire Leopards.
The Fire Leopard King was much larger than the average Fire Leopards. When its vertical eye opened and closed, there was a faint glow of fire. The beast might was so horrifying that Lu Li could feel it from afar, suffocating him.
"Saint Lord, go back to the valley and leave the Fire Leopard King to us!"
God of Meng turned to Lu Li who nodded and said, "One Fire Leopard King and six of us at the Human Sovereign Realm should be fine. State Councilor, go back."
"Be careful!"
Lu Li nodded. He didn't force himself. He couldn't deal with a Beast King that was at the Human Sovereign Realm. He would only be a burden if he stayed.
Lu Li went back to the valley and stood next to Lu Ling. He gazed at the Fire Leopard King through the formation at the entrance of the valley.
"Roar ~"
Another deafening roar rang out as the Fire Leopard King shot over like a red meteor. Its speed was simply too fast.
If Lu Li didn't use his psychic power, he wouldn't be able to see the Fire Leopard King clearly.
The Fire Leopard King was surrounded by a red airstream, especially its four hooves. It was as if the Fire Leopard King was walking on red clouds.
Every time its hooves touched the ground, the earth would shake and the stones would crack. Every time it leaped, it could fly up to more than 1000 feet and change directions in midair. It was horrifying.
"Hoy!"
God of Meng's body glowed in a dark golden color. Dark golden scales appeared on his exposed skin.
He stomped his knees on the ground, and his entire body shot out like a giant beast towards the Fire Leopard King.
A small shield appeared in his right hand and a huge saber in his left hand. Without hesitation, he stood in front of the Fire Leopard King.
"Phew, phew ~"
The Fire Leopard King breathed out a mouthful of red airstream. The energy in heaven and earth around them began to move.
Lu Li sensed with psychic power that an unknown force was gathering toward God of Meng from all sides. God of Meng swung his saber but he couldn't swing it down.
"Swish ~"
The Fire Leopard King reached at God of Meng's chest in a flash. An armor appeared over God of Meng's body but it was crushed in an instant.
The bone spur on the head of the Fire Leopard stabbed at God of Meng's chest. The bone spur pierced through God of Meng's armor easily. Sparks came out and the spur eventually pierced into God of Meng's chest.
"Poof ~"
God of Meng was smashed away together with the Fire Leopard King. He spat out blood in midair and his face turned pale.
God of Meng was hurt by the Fire Leopard King in one move?
Even though the bone spur didn't pierce through God of Meng's heart, it was enough for him to suffer.
"Hoy!"
The other Human Sovereign Realm warriors made their moves. If the Fire Leopard King could defeat them one by one, they would have to stay here forever.
Qu Cheng generated dragons of fire to entangle the Fire Leopard King.
He had learned a Profound Meaning related to fire. Not only could his dragons of fire burn, but they could also entangle enemies and slow them down.
Once the Fire Leopard King was entangled by his dragons of fire, its speed would be reduced and it would become a live target.
"Hoy, Ghost Claw of the Void!"
The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Lotus Society struck out a huge blue ghostly claw that descended from the sky. His goal was to restrain the Fire Leopard King and restrict its movements and attacks.
"Whoosh ~"
However, the Fire Leopard King was too fast. It smacked God of Meng away with its other claw.
With a flash of red clouds, the Fire Leopard King dashed to the side and dashed toward Master of Palace of Black Moon.
"Hmm!"
Master of Palace of Black Moon, Hei Ni's neck glowed in purple and a huge shadow of a purple beast came into being.
The shadow dashed toward the Fire Leopard King like a flash of lightning. The shadow and the real one collided but there was no explosion.
The shadow of the purple beast had entangled the Fire Leopard King, which slowed it down.
"Roar, roar ~"
The Fire Leopard King howled. It breathed out streams of air in the shape of flames that surrounded it. Hei Ni's shadow of the purple beast became weaker. His energy was running out.
"Okay!"
In a fight between powerful warriors, one second was enough to decide the outcome.
Hei Ni's Bloodline Skill had stopped the Fire Leopard King. Now, it was their turn to fight back.
"Charge —"
God of Meng was hurt. The violence in him was triggered. Regardless of the blood gushing out from his chest, God of Meng sprang up from the ground, swung his huge saber with black air flowing around it and hacked at the Fire Leopard King.
"Do it. Kill this beast!"
