Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7203

Chapter 7115: Overlord!

After the battle, Li Tianming returned to the private room.

With the Dao array isolating him from the outside noise, he quickly entered a state of focused concentration.

Li Tianming practiced his swordplay, frowning as he said, “Although these two sword strikes already possess considerable power, I always feel like there’s room for improvement…”

This feeling of being just short of perfection lingered in his mind, causing him considerable discomfort!

“How exactly can I unleash the true power of the Kingly Sword and the Overlord’s Death Sword?” Li Tianming asked himself.

He practiced with the black Eastern Emperor Sword, progressing from ‘Rising Sun’ to ‘One Sword, Nine Cauldrons,’ and with the golden Eastern Emperor Sword, from ‘Burning the Earth’s Frontier’ to ‘Annihilation of Ten Thousand Veins,’ and so on…

In this process, Li Tianming’s swordplay speed increased, and his understanding of the techniques became more and more integrated!

It seemed that he had gradually merged each move into one, and every sword strike carried the shadow of the Chaos Sword Dao he had once cultivated!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In an instant, almost the entire private room was filled with golden or black sword shadows!

Although the private room offered some space, it was far inferior to the Emperor’s Battle Arena, so Li Tianming didn’t use any of the extra amplification effects like the Star Boundary and Pulse Field.

Surprisingly, this allowed him to grasp that profound and mysterious feeling!

“I understand!” Li Tianming suddenly exclaimed, his eyes brightening. “Before this, I relied too much on the amplification of sword power from the Star Boundary and Pulse Field, neglecting the sword itself. The Kingly Sword reigns supreme in the sword, so all other realms merely play a supporting role, while the Overlord Sword reigns supreme in its domineering way, forcing all other realms to submit!”

After understanding all this, his sword became even more formidable; after two months of dedicated practice of the Chaos Sword Dao, Li Tianming completely mastered the Kingly Sword and the Overlord Sword!

Finally, Li Tianming unleashed both the golden and black Eastern Emperor Swords.

One, the Kingly Sword, reigning supreme in all realms!

Rumble!!

The moment this sword appeared, golden sword light shone within the private room, stirring countless Dao clouds, causing the space to tremble, as if in submission!

First, all veins submit, a domineering sword strike!

This sword strike, imbued with a violent and domineering black sword aura, annihilated all matter in the universe into ashes!

“Fortunately, there’s a high-grade Heavenly Venerable-level Dao array here, otherwise we really wouldn’t have been able to withstand Little Li’s antics…” Sui Shenyao said dumbfounded.

Finally!

“Phew…”

After two sword strikes, Li Tianming temporarily sheathed the Eastern Emperor Sword and let out a long breath.

Now, even without the amplification of other powers, Li Tianming’s own Cosmic God power alone is enough to unleash power comparable to at least a fourth-tier Heavenly Venerable, and with the fusion of the pulse field and the star realm, it will be even more terrifying!

“I never imagined that these two sword strikes, already possessing such terrifying power, could be further enhanced!” Li Tianming himself was astonished, and then his gaze narrowed slightly as he said, “Next, it’s time to cultivate the combined sword dao of these two sword strikes, ‘Overlord’.”

To cultivate this combined sword dao, Li Tianming first needs to truly understand what ‘Overlord’ really means.

The Way of the King and the Way of the Hegemon have always been important components of Li Tianming’s Imperial Way, but to condense them into the final combined sword path requires Li Tianming to practice and gain a deeper understanding of them.

At this time, Li Tianming is also evolving the combined sword paths from the initial ‘Divine Palace’, ‘Painting the Kingdom’, ‘Dragon Slayer’ to the eighth sword ‘Peerless’, etc.

“‘Painting the Kingdom’ is about painting the territory of a country, while ‘Cave Ruins’ is about clearly observing the mysteries, and ‘Peerless’ is about surpassing everything…”

Li Tianming practices each combined sword path while contemplating what kind of artistic conception the ‘Overlord’ sword should possess.

However, this process is not as smooth as Li Tianming has expected!

Li Tianming holds a golden-black Eastern Emperor Heavy Sword in his hand, constantly practicing and striking, constantly exploring this ninth combined sword path.

But he makes no progress!

He is blocked in the process of fusing Divine Palace and Painting the Kingdom, unable to perfectly integrate them!

Time flowed slowly…

Amidst countless failures, Li Tianming grew increasingly frustrated, and with this shift in mindset, his swordsmanship became increasingly explosive!

“How could this be?” Li Tianming wondered.

Faced with this predicament, a thought suddenly occurred to him: “Usually, with my aunt and Yao Yao helping me, practicing new sword techniques is much easier, but now it’s different…”

The moment this thought arose ,

Li Tianming’s mind seemed to clear, his thoughts becoming much more agile.

Holding the Eastern Emperor Sword, he suddenly realized:

“No, I’ve been wrong all along!”

“There is no fixed, correct path to the Emperor; everyone’s path is different!”

“This final ‘Overlord’ sword strike, condensing the chaotic sword techniques I’ve cultivated so far, is something I should have practiced myself!”

After shifting his thinking, the eight combined sword techniques that had previously been somewhat disconnected and blocked in his practice flowed effortlessly into his own hands!

Because he no longer pursued the fusion of sword techniques in pairs; he had discovered through repeated failures that this was impossible!

“Before this, I always doubted whether there was something wrong with my method of fusing and combining sword techniques. But in reality, there’s no perfect solution in this world, and everything that happens is predestined!” Li Tianming said with burning eyes during his practice.

After changing his mindset, Li Tianming didn’t fuse the swords one by one, but instead treated all eight swords as a whole!

The fusion of the two swords that were initially blocked actually started because of Li Tianming’s persistence, or rather, a kind of “making the best of a bad situation”

approach, as he continued to practice. From two swords to three, then to four…

the more sword techniques he fused, the more he compensated for his original shortcomings!

“The true ‘Overlord’ sword technique cannot doubt itself; it requires unwavering belief. It’s not that my sword technique was wrong, but that I hadn’t reached the final stage, hadn’t truly unleashed its power! I am the inheritor of the Chaos God Emperor; no one in the world understands the Chaos Sword Technique better than me, so I shouldn’t doubt myself!” Li Tianming’s expression was invigorated.

At this moment, the ‘Overlord’ sword technique was completed!

At this moment, Aurora came to Li Tianming’s side and smiled gently, “Congratulations, Tianming, you have successfully grasped the true essence of the Overlord’s sword, and you have also mastered this sword technique.”

Sui Shenyao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and she said with relief, “Fortunately, you finally figured it out, otherwise if you had been stuck on the fusion of the two swords, you might have gone mad. And Auntie wouldn’t let me say anything…”

Aurora smiled and said, “We all have to believe in Tianming. He will definitely find the right path. If we give him help that he shouldn’t, it will only harm him.”

“Aunt, and Yao Yao, I also have to thank you. Actually, I was able to master ‘Overlord’ thanks to you all,” Li Tianming said with a smile.

“Hmph, it’s good that you know, but it’s also because of your outstanding comprehension,” Sui Shenyao said smugly.

At this moment, Li Tianming had completely completed the first set of the Chaos Sword Dao, nine swords on each side, totaling twenty-seven swords.

He was eager to hone and test his skills in actual combat!

So, he immersed himself in the two stages of practical combat training and sword Dao comprehension…

During the time Li Tianming was still participating in the Ten Thousand Emperors Battle, many of the higher-ranked disciples who might encounter him actively avoided him.

Of course, there were also a few disciples who, even though they were afraid of encountering Li Tianming, participated in the battle with a sense of luck, but the result was often what they feared most, frequently becoming tools for Li Tianming to hone his sword Dao.

Soon, another five years passed in the process of participating in the Ten Thousand Emperors Battle.
