Chapter 766: Adding Further Foundation
Time passed slowly, until at some point, the connection between the two places vanished.
Chen Futu and his avatar opened their eyes simultaneously, "It's done!"
With a whoosh, a thick aura of death flowed in Chen Futu's eyes, which was a gray flame, while the eyes of the avatar flowed with green flames. Moreover, as their thoughts turned, the color of one of their eyes changed, one gray and one green, as they simultaneously grasped the laws of life and death.
"I see."
Chen Futu finally understood why the Martial God here was born in the morning and died at dusk, calling himself a mayfly.
At the same time, mastering the laws of life and death consumes a tremendous amount of energy. The physical body simply cannot withstand the cycle of life and death for long and will be gradually worn away.
The body is like a vessel that carries two high-speed streams of water; it will eventually be worn away. The God of War couldn't withstand that, hence the saying "Mayfly God of War."
Perhaps his individuality was very special, and he would come back to life after death. Chen Futu did not think he possessed such talent, so to be on the safe side, he simply infused his life force back into his incarnation, each retaining a law.
"With my current physical body, how long can I last? That Martial God might be able to last a little longer, but not for very long. He'll probably be worn down in a year or two at most, right?"
"Born in the morning and dying in the evening" is not a metaphor for life and death occurring within a single day.
"System, what's the difference between the Law of Life and Death and Zhang Sanfeng's Yin-Yang Law?"
Chen Futu voiced the question that had been on his mind.
The system said, "Answering the question requires 100 million points."
"Whatever, I'm not short of money."
“One hundred million system points will be deducted from the host.”
The system acted quite decisively.
If it weren't for the fact that he could now collect skeletons or the corpses of powerful individuals to replenish his points, Chen Futu would really be reluctant to spend so many points.
The system lazily explained, "The so-called laws of life and death are actually the power of reincarnation. If the host can cultivate to the level of Consort Pingxin, then naturally he can control it."
"Then there's no hope at all."
Who is Lady Pingxin? She is the Ancestral Witch in the mythology of Blue Star, transformed from the essence of Pangu's blood. After the great calamity of the Lich King, she transformed herself into the cycle of reincarnation and became the Earth Path itself. Life and death are in her hands.
"Host, have you forgotten that you absorbed a wisp of incense essence from Consort Pingxin?"
The system suddenly said something, giving me a look that said, "You're an idiot."
Chen Futu trembled. "No wonder. I always felt that I comprehended the laws of life and death too smoothly. When my body bore these two forces, apart from feeling very dangerous, my physical body did not suffer any wear and tear."
"Of course, this is just a small world. A wisp of incense essence from Lady Pingxin is enough to carry the reincarnation power of this small world. The host can fuse two laws into the power of reincarnation. This is a transcendence method that countless powerful people dream of. As long as you can control the power of reincarnation, the host will have an invincible trump card no matter where he goes."
"Brilliant!"
With the system as a guarantee, what did Chen Futu have to worry about? He directly summoned the life law from within his body, condensing and compressing it.
The process was painful, but it went relatively smoothly.
As the two laws merged, Chen Futu's mind kept replaying the scene of Lady Pingxin descending and using reincarnation.
About two days later, Chen Futu's mottled pupils gradually returned to normal. He opened his hand, and a strange gray and green vortex swirled in his palm. He unleashed this power, and in an instant, it tore open a spatial rift thousands of feet long in the inner world.
"So strong!"
Chen Futu was deeply shocked.
This is the power of reincarnation. I have only grasped the basics so far, but its power far surpasses that of the God of War.
"Unfortunately, I cannot possess the great supernatural power of Lady Pingxin, who can change the species of others with a single thought."
Chen Futu shook his head in disappointment.
The system said disdainfully, "You're getting a good deal and you're still acting innocent. The Empress Pingxin has the true power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, while you only have a trace of that power. This trace of power shouldn't even exist in this small world."
"I know that the laws of life and death in the martial arts plane are too weak, but it's not bad to be able to condense a trace of the destructive power of reincarnation."
Chen Futu understood the rules of this power: after being unleashed, it first transforms the opponent's vital energy into death energy, then amplifies that trace of power, and finally obliterates the opponent's body.
In other words, Chen Futu can instantly kill opponents of the same level, and at a higher level, he can use the power of reincarnation to slowly wear them down. It's no exaggeration to say that he now possesses the means to kill gods.
"This was a very fruitful experience, I'm very satisfied."
Chen Futu spent some more money to send his avatar back to Baiyujing, and even put away the Enlightenment Stone.
This stone's comprehension ability has been diminished due to the disappearance of Lei Peng Di Fa, but it is still usable. Let's throw it into the Huazhou Enlightenment Center so that everyone can use it.
"System, accept the tale of the Martial God!"
With the power of reincarnation empowering him, Chen Futu's confidence soared.
The system said, "Congratulations, host, on completing the anecdote 'Life in the Morning, Death in the Evening'."
"Huh? It's done already?"
"Yes, the original purpose of the anecdotes was for the host to comprehend the laws of life and death."
"You cunning old man, if I hadn't used my avatar, I would have really been done for today!"
Chen Futu immediately started cursing.
No wonder the system said that the anecdote was a death sentence. If he hadn't used an avatar but instead comprehended a single law, there would have been a shocking change. This is because it is the inheritance of the Martial God. After mastering the rule of life, he would most likely be forcibly replaced by Yi Si Sheng to guard this oasis of life, and would never be able to leave. He would have to maintain a balance with Yi Si Si at all times!
Thinking of this, Chen Futu got goosebumps all over.
"You damn system, you son of a bitch, you son of a bitch!"
"Host, stay calm. As a reward for this anecdote, you will have one chance to purchase an item for free in the store, limited to one treasure."
"No rush. I'll study the mall slowly after we leave the inner world."
Chen Futu didn't want to exchange for the Heaven-Slaying Divine Armor; he wanted to exchange for the most expensive one.
There's a saying that goes something like this: Don't care if it's right, just choose the expensive one.
"Damn system, you better not try to cheat me like Taobao does, temporarily raising prices on holidays to fool me!"
"The system is very professional, please rest assured, host."
"You believe your nonsense, you little rascal."
Chen Futu and the system were exchanging words when they decided to leave Yiniansheng to find Ling Xue. So much time had passed, would she be targeted by the Blood Fiend Sect?
Whoosh! Suddenly, two beams of light shot in from the distance.
Chen Futu instinctively reached out to grab them, and saw two small round balls land in his palm. They were two cool, imperial artifacts, one green and containing the law of life, and the other gray and containing the law of death.
"System, this isn't right. It should be divine weapons, why are there only two imperial artifacts?"
The system said, "Is it possible that this is a fragment of a divine weapon, and there is one left? If the host finds it, the three can be combined to become a single divine weapon."
"Three imperial artifacts? The last one is..."
Chen Futu suddenly remembered the colorful little beads that the group of quasi-emperors had snatched earlier, which were exactly the same size as these two quasi-emperor balls!
