Chapter 182: Strength EX Level
Time passed amidst celebrations and various discussions.
Yun Ye held Yuexin in his arms as the Rebirth Book floated before him, pages flipping on their own.
As he looked at the constantly changing information on his panel, Yun Ye contemplated his final decision.
The Rebirth Book had a section for "Strength," which revealed just how powerful he truly was.
After perfecting his Walking Law, his strength rating had risen to A+ level, described as just below the law realms.
In other words, all the spiritual realm cultivators in Baishi Town were no longer his opponents.
And this A+ strength was merely the norm, not including the burning life ability and the great disaster mark.
The peak state of his normal strength occurred when he set up the Extreme Cold Great Formation.
With the optimized formations and magic tools aiding him, it was virtually impossible for the spiritual realm cultivators of Baishi Town to survive inside the formation.
However, when it came to the law realms, it was likely that a single strike could destroy the formation, making effective defense unfeasible.
Yun Ye’s thoughts shifted as he added the Elevation of Spiritual Roots to the strength composition; he looked at the new evaluation.
The result was A+ transforming into A++ but still not reaching S, meaning he could still not counter the law realms.
“Shouldn’t there be an A++ ranking? Is the leap between the spiritual realm and law realms just too great?”
Yun Ye shook his head and incorporated the Essence.
By unlocking the Three Major Techniques, he could now use the Essence, but without a spiritual body, using it meant certain death.
Finally, A++ changed to S-, as the Essence of Chaos allowed Yun Ye to barely cross into the level of law realms.
However, just a few seconds of the Essence couldn’t bring about significant effect, so it remained at S-, with no real chance to confront and kill the law realms in Baishi Town.
Yun Ye continued by adding "Celestial Phenomenon: Type One," which he had used in the Crescent Moon Secret Realm—relying solely on kinetic energy to deal damage, achieving speeds of over twenty thousand meters per second.
Theoretically, "Celestial Phenomenon" was his most powerful attack method, far surpassing the Essence.
But regrettably, S- did not change to S.
In other words, the original Celestial Phenomenon Type One could not win against a stronger opponent or defeat the judges; at best, it could only inflict heavy injuries.
Even if the judges became aware, landing a hit would be extremely difficult.
Every cultivator at different realms undergoes significant changes in the essence of life, and their reaction speed and perception of danger evolve rapidly. For the Celestial Phenomenon, unless the speed reached an unbelievable level, it was indeed difficult to have any effect.
Yun Ye pressed on and added “Celestial Phenomenon: Type Two.”
Type Two was an evolved form of Type One; the spirit patterns of Type One were very rough and not finely tuned, relying solely on his own exploration.
However, Type Two was different, drawing upon the Three Mystical True Fire Method, creating patterns similar to major Spiritual Law.
In simple terms, the spirit energy of Type Two was more than ten times that of Type One, and the increase in power far exceeded ten times—if there were higher-grade materials, the effect should be even better.
Currently, even extraordinary materials from chaotic-level monsters would nearly burn out in an instant under the speed attack.
Speed could continue to improve, but the vast majority of energy would need to protect the materials, preventing explosive increases in power.
With Type Two added, Yun Ye’s strength rating finally changed to S level, indicating he had the potential to kill a law realm, but this required meeting numerous conditions, such as the opponent being under the effect of chaos and lacking awareness.
Then came "Celestial Phenomenon: Type Three," which differed entirely from the previous two types; it no longer relied on the strength of materials but incorporated All Things Silent.
The material used to hold the Celestial Phenomenon Artifact evaporated because the friction generated excessive heat. Yun Ye considered using Water Elemental Spiritual Law to form a protective layer, but the limit of the spirit patterns carried by the material meant that too much Water Elemental Spiritual Law would reduce the Fire Spiritual Law, leading to decreased power.
Yun Ye decided to go straight for it, employing Combination Spiritual Law: All Things Silent. As an ultra-low temperature spiritual law, All Things Silent only needed to occupy a tiny space to achieve the same effect as Water Elemental Spiritual Law.
The downside was that the difficulty of crafting increased explosively. If it weren’t for Yun Ye directly infusing his own spiritual law into the process rather than engraving spirit patterns, success would have been nearly impossible.
The Celestial Phenomenon: Type Three created in such circumstances clearly showed a significant leap in performance.
After completing the creation, Yun Ye didn’t even conduct any tests, worried that making too much noise would attract the attention of the people in Baishi Town.
When Yun Ye added Celestial Phenomenon: Type Three to his strength rating, it jumped directly from S to S+.
Ordinary law realms would not stand a chance against this move!
Yun Ye raised an eyebrow, "Is Celestial Phenomenon Type Three still not the strongest? Is it the Dao Artifact’s influence? Or does the Ji family’s law realms have secret techniques that can offset the damage from Celestial Phenomenon: Type Three?"
For the final step, he added the great disaster mark, which was his last resort.
And the great disaster mark did not betray expectations.
For the first time, Yun Ye’s value reached EX level, making him the strongest in Baishi Town.
In other words, no matter how powerful the law realms in Baishi Town were, as long as it was a single target, Yun Ye could suppress it within a short time. If there were enough of them, he might even have a chance to kill.
The Reverse Liberation Forms could grant an unmatched and undefeated level of talent, and the computational power was naturally included, likely enabling the "Celestial Phenomenon" to achieve a face-smashing output effect.
Without a means of substitution, it would basically be a first encounter kill, requiring careful timing of its use.
As laughter and revelry filled the air, night fell.
All the higher-ups discussed the issue of the Dao Artifact for a while, their spirits generally low. The failure to awaken the Dao Artifact was discouraging, and no amount of consolation could hide their disappointment.
Yun Ye shook his head and said little.
This was a motivation to encourage them to strive harder and refine their beliefs; if they could be troubled by such trivial matters, they could not move forward on this path.
“Tian Jing, Huo Yang, please show everyone the power of the Dao Artifact. Your strengths are different from mine and have a wide range of applicability.”
“Master, I’ll go first!”
Tian Jing waved his hand, summoning a swirling red cloud, and a fiery patterns sword rose, grasped tightly by him.
But at this point, Tian Jing froze. He wondered… what effect did his Dao Artifact have?
After attempting to slash a couple of times, only a cloud of red mist followed, looking completely like an ordinary sword.
Tian Jing even found that when he tried to strike something, he simply passed through; this sword had no physical form?
“Ning Xiao, attack Tian Jing with your spiritual law.”
Yun Ye directly suggested.
“This Dao Artifact only works against spiritual law? Tian Jing, I’m coming, don’t be hurt if it doesn’t work!"
Ning Xiao responded with a smile.
“I’m not sure, but… it feels like it might work!”
Tian Jing gripped the sword, his eyes bright as he watched Ning Xiao make a move.
Ning Xiao extended his hand, and golden light spread through the air, forming a steel sword, which he then swung directly at Tian Jing.
The latter raised his hand to meet the attack with his sword.
Under everyone’s watch, the two swords clashed, and then the sword created by Ning Xiao’s golden spiritual law shattered.
No, it should be said it was crushed.
The point of contact completely vanished!
Ning Xiao couldn’t help but pause, “Interesting… it feels like I’m not being worn away by spiritual law, but more like something is disappearing into thin air?”
