Chapter 194 Third Realm Power

The terrifying sense of threat increased sharply. Although Monarch Chan Ming was reckless by nature, he wasn't stupid; he sensed something was wrong.

"I can't understand Wu Ming's strength, but one thing is certain… I can no longer deal with him." Monarch Chan Ming transformed into a stream of black gas and fled into the depths of the mountains at an alarming speed.

Xu Jingming was immersed in the breakthrough process, feeling the energy within his body constantly transforming under the command of the divine symbol (shenfu) in his forehead. Suddenly, he noticed Monarch Chan Ming's escape.

"Escape?" Xu Jingming, holding the silver spear, opened his eyes and looked at the black gas fleeing into the distance.

"Can you escape?" Xu Jingming thought.

He could feel the vastness and incredibility of that trace of power he had transformed and condensed within his body! With just a thought, he felt that this trace of power, when stimulated, transcended space, time, and even cause and effect.

The moment his mind locked onto Monarch Chan Ming, no matter how Monarch Chan Ming tried to escape, he couldn't escape the lock.

Xu Jingming disappeared into thin air.

At the same time, the black gas fleeing in the distance was pierced by a bloody spear shadow. The heavily injured black gas condensed into the figure of Monarch Chan Ming.

"This is the Land of Ultimate, where even traveling requires flying. How could he possibly overcome the obstacles of time and space?" Monarch Chan Ming couldn't believe it. He also felt that the lifeform bestowed upon him by the Abyss was suffering extremely terrifying damage.

With just one strike, nearly half of his lifeform had been destroyed.

"Even an invincible Half-Step Third Realm expert can't do anything to my physical body. How could he severely injure me with one strike?" Monarch Chan Ming felt that his understanding was being shattered. "For endless years, across endless territories, there has been a consensus—Abyss Monarchs below the Third Realm are indestructible."

"Invincible Half-Step Third Realm experts, Abyss Monarchs in the Abyss environment, represent the ultimate power; they are invincible."

Monarch Chan Ming stared at Xu Jingming in front of him. "Wu Ming, have you broken through to the Third Realm?"

"I've only touched upon the Third Realm; I'm still far from it," Xu Jingming said, shaking his head gently. Immediately afterward, he disappeared into thin air again. His power had already transcended spatial obstacles; the enemy had nowhere to hide.

"Still far from the Third Realm? What exactly is going on?" Monarch Chan Ming completely couldn't understand. At the same time, a bloody spear shadow pierced through his body again. This time, the power Xu Jingming unleashed was even stronger, completely destroying Monarch Chan Ming's body.

"Escape!"

Monarch Chan Ming's body disintegrated, and two streams of black gas fled in separate directions.

"There are actually two clones?" Xu Jingming naturally could tell. Monarch Chan Ming had also tried to bring as many clones as possible when exploring the Land of Ultimate. After one clone was destroyed, the other two didn't dare to hesitate and fled with their treasures, hoping at least one could escape.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Xu Jingming, standing in place, transformed into three figures in an instant.

The three Xu Jingmings disappeared simultaneously.

Boom! A super-large bloody spear shadow pierced through one of Monarch Chan Ming's fleeing clones.

Boom! Boom! The other two smaller bloody spear shadows simultaneously pierced through Monarch Chan Ming's other clone.

"Ahhh."

Both of Monarch Chan Ming's clones revealed狰狞扭曲 distorted faces, with unwillingness and despair in their eyes. "Ordinary clones without Third Realm weapons can actually rival an invincible Half-Step Third Realm expert?"

After just one exchange, Monarch Chan Ming was certain.

Those two ordinary clones had very ordinary weapons, but the strength they unleashed was that of an invincible Half-Step Third Realm expert.

"We are considered to be at the invincible level because of our Third Realm weapons. His clones without weapons are this strong? What kind of monster is he?" Monarch Chan Ming was being pursued and harassed by two clones and couldn't escape at all.

…

The 35 majestic figures were all observing Xu Jingming through cause and effect, observing the manipulation of Xu Jingming's power.

"Impressive."

Lord Yuhuo exclaimed, "As expected of an Ultimate existence. These mysterious characters have indeed opened up a new path of evolution. For Half-Step Third Realm experts, there have always been two ways to become a Third Realm expert. One is to cultivate multiple methods, the number of which will affect each other until a final qualitative change occurs. The other is to specialize in one method, constantly delving deeper until a final qualitative change occurs."

"Half-Step Third Realm experts who reach a certain limit are also called 'invincible Half-Step Third Realm experts.' They will be trapped in this limit, almost never able to break through," Lord Yuhuo said. "To break the limit and advance to the Third Realm? Throughout our entire spacetime, the number of people who have been able to do it is very small."

The Third Realm experts present all nodded.

"Half-Step Third Realm, breaking through to the Third Realm… now there is a third path," Lord Yuhuo praised. "That is to use the divine symbol (shenfu) as a medium to allow Half-Step Third Realm experts to experience a trace of 'Third Realm power' in advance."

Lord Keye nodded, "It's like low-dimensional lifeforms first mastering a trace of high-dimensional power and experiencing high-dimensional power. This greatly reduces the difficulty of becoming a 'high-dimensional lifeform.'"

"Half-Step Third Realm experts, wanting to master a trace of 'Third Realm power' in advance… I've never heard of such a method before. Today, I've finally seen it."

"Truly worthy of being an Ultimate existence. They can actually create such a method, greatly increasing the hope of reaching the Third Realm."

"Amazing."

"Too great."

These Third Realm experts were praising.

On the one hand, they were praising, and on the other hand, they were indeed somewhat shocked.

Just like breaking through from the 'Nascent realm' to the 'Eternal realm,' in the distant past, the difficulty was very high. Later, that Ultimate existence from the Mother River lineage created the method of opening up a universe within the body, greatly increasing the number of Eternal Realm high-dimensional lifeforms.

Now, that Ultimate existence from the Heart Realm has left behind a legacy that is expected to allow one to master a trace of Third Realm power in advance.

"This Wu Ming should be the most powerful 'Half-Step Third Realm' expert in our entire spacetime."

"Not only in our spacetime, but even looking at infinite parallel spacetimes, Wu Ming might be the strongest Half-Step Third Realm expert."

"In the Spacetime Arena, invincible Half-Step Third Realm experts cannot break the limit, and no one has ever heard of anyone breaking the limit. This Wu Ming… under the guidance of an Ultimate existence, has broken the limit."

The 35 majestic existences were all praising.

They all had many thoughts, but the shadow of an Ultimate existence behind this matter made them not dare to act rashly.

"The Ultimate existence created a method and needed a test subject to test it? Wu Ming has become the most successful test subject?"

"In the Land of Ultimate, there are so many Half-Step Third Realm experts. Perhaps there are other successful test subjects."

The majestic existences were all thinking and observing.

"According to Grand Lord Fiya, I have died twice already," Lord Yuhuo said, looking remotely at the scene. "No matter what the purpose of the Ultimate existence is, we must not disrupt the Ultimate existence's plan."

…

The two fleeing clones of Monarch Chan Ming, one was stabbed to death by Xu Jingming with his Third Realm spear in just two strikes, and the other was entangled by Xu Jingming's two ordinary clones and soon met the same fate of being stabbed to death.

The bloody spear shadow, like a swimming dragon, pierced through the enemy's body, completely annihilating Monarch Chan Ming's body.

"Finally, I've completely destroyed his clones." The bloody spear shadow condensed into Xu Jingming. With a wave of his hand, he collected all the items left behind by Monarch Chan Ming.

"This Monarch Chan Ming really has a lot of treasures." Xu Jingming began to investigate the spoils of war.

On the other side.

In the layer of Abyss space where Monarch Chan Ming was located.

"Gurgle~~~" The rolling black sea revealed Monarch Chan Ming's face, a face with unease.

"Having been bestowed upon by the Abyss, I was able to use the power of a layer of Abyss space to condense my physical body, to condense a near-perfect body. But that Wu Ming, stabbed one of my clones to death in just two strikes?" Monarch Chan Ming was truly afraid.

He had been so reckless, so arrogant and insane, because he hadn't felt the threat of death.

Now, he felt the threat!

"I can't leave the Abyss. Once I leave the Abyss environment, Wu Ming's ordinary clones can easily kill me." Monarch Chan Ming was extremely anxious. "But even if I hide in the Abyss, I can't withstand Wu Ming's two strikes."

"Fortunately, he is carrying a Third Realm weapon in the Land of Ultimate and can't come out to hunt me down for now."

"If he comes out…"

Monarch Chan Ming was very worried. "Even if I use the entire Abyss space to increase my strength by another 30%, I'm afraid he would still be able to stab me to death after expending ten or eight more strikes."

"I pushed him too hard; he won't spare me." Monarch Chan Ming didn't even think about begging for mercy, because he had observed the timeline and understood Wu Ming's personality. Begging for mercy… would be useless!

"My only hope of survival is that his Third Realm spear is lost in the Land of Ultimate!" Monarch Chan Ming silently hoped.

"The competition in the Land of Ultimate is fierce, and no one has been able to come out alive so far. This Wu Ming may also die inside."

"Without a Third Realm spear from the Mind Weapon lineage, his strength will be greatly reduced."

Monarch Chan Ming hoped.

Third Realm weapons were common, but from the Mind Weapon lineage, and a spear at that, was too rare. None had appeared in Featherfire City in the past. The one in Xu Jingming's hands was found with the help of Island Lord Dilong.

"The Land of Ultimate is easy to enter, but it's not so easy to get out," Monarch Chan Ming could only hope so; he had no other choice.

…

Xu Jingming checked the spoils of war: "Monarch Chan Ming obtained a full five unique objects and 2,622 characters." He instantly became much wealthier. These unique objects each had their own uses, and the one that attracted Xu Jingming the most was a transparent long rod.

"This unique object is made of Mind Pearl material." Xu Jingming held the transparent long rod. The transparent long rod changed according to his will and quickly turned into a transparent spear.

With another thought from Xu Jingming, the transparent long rod melted like flowing water into the surface of Xu Jingming's skin, forming a protective robe.

"At will, it can be changed at will." Xu Jingming marveled.

Unique objects depended on the category. Unique objects from the Heart Realm lineage were very suitable for Xu Jingming, but other types of unique objects… although their value was extremely high, they didn't provide much obvious help to his strength.

"With this unique object, my methods will be more comprehensive." Xu Jingming looked into the distance. Creating the fifth move of *Golden Halberd*, 'Beacon Fire,' and condensing the spear-shaped divine symbol (shenfu) did indeed significantly improve his strength.

But Xu Jingming felt an even greater sense of urgency in his heart.

"Throughout history, in the countless territories, invincible Half-Step Third Realm experts and Abyss Monarchs have represented the limit."

"But I am clearly still in the Half-Step Third Realm, yet I have broken this limit." Xu Jingming was very clear. "It's because I condensed that one divine symbol (shenfu); this is the legacy left behind by the Ultimate existence."

"The Ultimate existence, leaving this place, attracting countless Half-Step Third Realm experts, what is it for?" Xu Jingming felt that after mastering the divine symbol (shenfu), he had entered the very center of the vortex.

"Face soldiers with generals, and water with earth." Xu Jingming wasn't afraid and immediately advanced deeper into the mountains.
