Yang Qi spent the rest of his time in cultivation. For a cultivator at the Martial King level, a few decades is not too long, especially during cultivation, which is just a blink of an eye. During these decades, Yang Qi finally comprehended the shadow to the point where he could create a shadow clone.
Wow~
A black-robed figure separated from Yang Qi's body and merged into the shadow. Even a high-level martial emperor like Li Chengfeng could not detect the existence of the shadow clone if he only relied on simple perception. However, if it was a range attack, it could still force the shadow clone out.
Whoosh~
Yang Qi flashed and killed towards Li Chengfeng who was not far away. Relying on his elusive shadow clone, he was able to fight on equal terms with Li Chengfeng, who had suppressed his cultivation and realm.
"Bang~"
A loud noise was heard in the formation, and two figures separated.
Li Chengfeng looked at Yang Qi in front of him and said with emotion, "Junior brother, your shadow clone is really powerful. If you work together, you can fight even against an ordinary one-star martial arts late-stage cultivator."
Although Li Chengfeng also has a clone, it is not the clone of Tao. He is very envious of Yang Qi's ability as the clone of Tao. After all, his vision and knowledge are higher than Yang Qi's, and he knows very well how powerful the clone of Tao is.
“Brother, you are too kind. My clone has less than 40% of my own strength and can only barely reach the level of Martial Emperor.” Yang Qi said with a wry smile.
There are many advantages to the clone of the Tao, such as perfect mastery of various methods of the original body, but due to the limitation of its own strength, it cannot exert the combat power of the original body. Another example is that it can communicate with each other even at a long distance. Of course, this long distance also has a limit. Yang Qi has tried it before. The farthest distance is about the distance of nine times of space shuttle with full power. The clone of the Tao and the original body can communicate completely. Beyond this distance, only some simple sensing can be carried out. But even so, it is much stronger than the ordinary clone's means.
"As your strength increases and your understanding of the shadow deepens, the strength of your shadow clone will naturally continue to improve." Li Chengfeng chuckled.
The stronger the clone of the Tao, the higher the level of the Tao, the more powerful the clone created. Moreover, the clone of the Tao is not very dependent on the strength of the soul. Even if one is lost, Yang Qi can condense another one in a short time. Unlike insects and beasts, once lost, it is gone!
“However, what is really worth being happy about is that we created the shadow clone before setting off.” Yang Qi said with a smile.
Once he went to Tianhuang Holy Land, he probably wouldn't have much time to comprehend the shadow, and although the shadow clone didn't rely much on soul power, it didn't completely consume soul power. Once the soul power was consumed, Yang Qi would have to heal and recover. Now that he had created a shadow clone in advance, his ability to survive would be greatly increased after entering Tianhuang Holy Land.
“Although I have made some progress in my practice of Shadow, I have not yet reached perfection in the sixth level of the Source God Canon. Now there is only a little over a year left before departure. It will probably be difficult to practice the Source God Canon to the perfect sixth level.” Yang Qi sighed.
A few years ago, Emperor Yaoyue sent someone to inform the specific time of departure. Now, there is only one year left before the departure to Tianhuang Holy Land. Since the sixth level of the Source God Canon was completed, the speed of cultivation has dropped sharply. Originally, Yang Qi thought that the sixth level of the Source God Canon would first succeed in the shadow clone cultivation, but he did not expect that he could now skillfully use the shadow clone, but the sixth level of the Source God Canon has not yet been cultivated to the perfect level.
Li Chengfeng, who was standing by, couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't be impatient on the road of cultivation. There is still time. Just practice according to your previous plan. This opportunity is just a node in your long road of cultivation. There is still a long way to go in the future."
Hearing this, Yang Qi nodded. As Li Chengfeng said, the purpose of his cultivation was not for this opportunity, but for the road to the peak of martial arts. This road was extremely long. Even the peak martial emperors and even the masters of the alien universe had not reached the true peak. If one was too obsessed with the gains and losses of a certain moment, it would be a waste of time.
Yang Qi did not waste the remaining year or so, but continued to practice and comprehend, striving to improve his strength again.
…
In a majestic ancient city, in front of a spacious palace.
An old man in a blue-gray robe was waiting quietly outside the palace. After a moment, a figure walked out from the depths of the palace.
"Master."
The middle-aged man looked at the old man in front of him and said respectfully.
The old man looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and chuckled, "For this opportunity, I delayed your breakthrough to the Martial Emperor Realm. You won't blame me, your master, right?"
"Master, your kindness is so great that I could never repay you even if I die. How could I blame you?" the middle-aged man said hurriedly.
His master found two opportunities for him in succession. The old man paid a huge price for this opportunity. Although he broke through to the Martial Emperor hundreds of years later, it made his own accumulation more profound. He was too late to be grateful for such a thing, so how could he blame him
"It's best if you think so. The last time you went to the place of inheritance, you failed to obtain the inheritance of Emperor Lihuo. I know you must be feeling bad. But this time, there are no restrictions on the opportunity. As long as you have the ability, you can get the inheritance even from the peak Martial Emperor." The old man said.
The peak of Emperor Wu!
Although they are both emperors, the difference between the inheritance of a peak martial emperor and an ordinary emperor is not a little bit. Moreover, for this opportunity, he does not need to worry about first come first served. As long as he can pass the test left by the Lord of the Universe, he can get the inheritance!
The old man looked at the middle-aged man and slowly said, "I have inquired recently and learned that the place you are going to this time is the alien universe of the Holy Lord of Tianhuang. The inheritance of the Holy Lord of Tianhuang is also very suitable for you. If you can get his favor, it will not be difficult for you to surpass me in your future achievements."
Holy Lord of Tianhuang!
There was a glimmer of anticipation in the middle-aged man's eyes. He came out of seclusion this time because the time of departure was approaching. It wouldn't be long before he could enter the rumored alien universe to see it for himself!
“I don’t know if that person will go there!”
A figure flashed through the middle-aged man's mind. This person was none other than the intermediate-level Martial King who had snatched away his opportunity in the land of inheritance. Although he didn't know the other person's name, he would never forget the other person's appearance and aura in his life.
"That person was only a mid-level Martial King hundreds of years ago. It shouldn't be possible for him to reach the peak of Martial King in such a short time. Besides, it's not easy to get a place to enter the alien universe."
As soon as this thought came to his mind, the middle-aged man immediately shook his head to deny it. Thinking of this, a gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of the middle-aged man's eyes, and he secretly said, "It seems that I can only wait until I enter the Martial Emperor Realm in the future to settle the score with this person!"
