Honor: 5 stages record, 18 levels record
Jiang Ming failed on the 19th level and fell to the ground from the Heavenly Ladder. Although he recovered fast, his mind was still a muddled mess, and his soul was trembling. The spear on the 19th level had been so powerful that it stunned him the moment it appeared and crushed his sea of consciousness in the blink of an eye.
“It’s too powerful!” Jiang Ming exclaimed. He let out a sigh and then smiled when he saw how many points he had accumulated.
He had accumulated 31 points from the Heavenly Battle Stage, but he got even more points from the Heavenly Ladder. One would get one point for clearing the first nine levels of the Heavenly Ladder dedicated to the martial artist in the Primal Spirit Realm. Starting from the 10th level to the 18th level, only a Paradis martial artist had a chance of clearing them. Not only that, but they were getting 10 points for each stage.
“You’re awesome!” Luo Heng and the others came over. All of them were wearing surprised expressions on their faces.
They didn’t think that someone could reach the 18th level until they met Jiang Ming.
“Terrific!” Ye Qingxian exclaimed, her eyes glowing. She looked at the stone tablet next to her and unexpectedly saw Jiang Ming’s name on the top.
Ye Qingxian couldn’t help herself and exclaim again, “18th level. It means that you have the willpower of a Level 8 martial artist, yet in reality, you’re only a Level 5 one. This is unbelievable!”
“What I envy most are the points you gained. It… It’s just too amazing!” Aurum cried out after he did mental calculations. “Once he consumes those points, I can’t imagine how powerful he will become!”
Everyone sucked in air sharply after they heard what Aurum had said.
Even Guang Rui couldn’t help herself and lick her lips.
Jiang Ming let out a smile but did not say anything. After chatting with them for a while, he went to the side, sat in a lotus position, and began recuperating.
After all, his mind was exhausted, and the spear had pierced through his sea of consciousness.
Time was flowing slowly. It was only when his sea of consciousness returned to its original state that Jiang Ming rose to his feet. He felt refreshed, and the lethargy he felt earlier was gone.
Luo Heng and the rest did not leave. They did not go to comprehend the Heavenly Monuments or the Dao Monuments as they waited for him.
Jiang Ming nodded at them, and after a short contemplation, he walked toward the Million Dao Chart behind him.
He was going to get some special abilities.
The Million Dao Chart was a massive monument. Jiang Ming had to lift his head to look at it, and he was amazed.
There were many lines and nodes on top of the Million Dao Chart, and they gave off the vibe of a starry sky. He squinted his eyes slightly and saw several Dao Rhythms in them.
He hastily sat in a lotus position and closed his eyes.
As he tried to make a mental connection with the Million Dao Chart, he felt a strange aura had enveloped him in a barrier, preventing people from the outside from interrupting him.
He did not have to worry about the passage of time, so he decided to take his sweet time comprehending the special abilities.
An illusionary scene that represented the world of his mind appeared behind him. It seemed like the Paradis projection, but nobody could see it.
Inside the Million Dao Chart, Jiang Ming felt he had arrived at the origin of all forces. A plume of flame exploded and turned into a star. It then continued to collapse and condense into a point before turning back into a plume of flame.
In the next second, he felt he had come to the eye of the storm. He was surrounded by a raging wind that could even destroy his body and soul. Before he could take a closer look at it, lightning burst out of nowhere, and a dark fog descended.
“This is the transformation of power, but it’s a muddled mess. I need to sort them out one by one and analyze the changes of power during the process, as well as the transformation of the Sambodha,” Jiang Ming said.
Jiang Ming had a basic understanding of the special ability. In fact, special abilities were divided into several grades as well.
Elementary-grade special abilities only utilized the Sambodha. In the intermediate grade, one could fuse several Sambodhas and make changes regarding the mysteries of Dao. In the advanced grade, it generally involved the changes of laws, the fusion of several Sambodhas, or the utilization of space and time power. As for the supreme grade, well, as the name suggested, it could draw out the full power of laws and suppress everything in the world.
This was everything that Jiang Ming knew about special abilities.
He would be granted one point for every eight elementary special abilities comprehended, and it accumulated from there. However, one supreme special ability was equivalent to two advanced special abilities, four intermediate special abilities, and eight elementary special abilities.
Some people would have a hard time gaining points from the Million Dao Chart, while it was a breeze for other people. It all depended on the level of intellect of that particular person.
Feng Wu had once said that one person had comprehended thousands of special abilities, a feat that nobody could surpass until this day.
Time went by slowly.
Three days later, a silhouette that looked like Jiang Ming appeared behind his back. The silhouette then performed a hand seal and created a red lotus.
The red lotus then exploded, and a pillar of light rushed out from above his head.
In the distance, Ye Qingxian, who had been observing Jiang Ming, exclaimed, “Amazing! It took him only three days to comprehend a special ability.”
“Yeah, he is truly a genius,” Luo Heng chimed in, “How many special abilities do you think he can comprehend?”
“10? Or 20? I can’t tell,” Ye Qingxian said. “Comprehending special abilities is a tiring process, and one would get exhausted very easily. However, judging from his willpower, I think a dozen shouldn’t be a problem for him.”
Luo Heng smiled bitterly. “It took me half a year to comprehend one special ability, and I was already exhausted.”
“How can you compare yourself to him?” Ye Qingxian said, darting him a glance.
Luo Heng nearly choked.
Several hours later, another beam of light shot out of Jiang Ming’s head. This meant that he had comprehended another special ability.
Ye Qingxian froze when she saw the scene.
“Hah!” Luo Heng turned around. “He has shattered my pride and confidence!”
“Well, you’re not alone,” Ye Qingxian said, her voice low.
Guang Rui, Liu Yan, and Aurum were rendered speechless too.
More and more pillars of light appeared from Jiang Ming’s head. Most of them were under ten meters in height, but some were about 100 meters in height. This meant that he had comprehended an intermediate special ability.
Generally, a Level 5 martial artist would need a lot of effort to comprehend an intermediate special ability.
“Holy!” Luo Heng shouted.
“Jesus Christ!” Ye Qingxian followed suit.
This was because a light pillar of about 1,000 meters in height had appeared above Jiang Ming’s head. It was so bright it could light up the entire sky.
If there was a light pillar of about 1,000 meters in height, it meant he had successfully comprehended a supreme special ability.
Luo Heng and Ye Qingxian sighed.
A supreme special ability generally involved the utilization of laws. However, there were several special occasions as well. For example, fusing several Sambodhas together or developing a certain Sambodha to a higher degree.
But either way, it was a miracle.
However, what surprised them the most was that although Jiang Ming had comprehended more than 40 types of special abilities, he still did not stop.
One day, a voice rang out in Jiang Ming’s heart.
“Congratulations, you’ve successfully comprehended 2 advanced special abilities, 6 intermediate special abilities, and 79 elementary special abilities. You’re eligible to have your name carved on the Divine Tablet! Simply put, since you’ve comprehended 99 special abilities, conquered the fifth stage of the Heavenly Battle Stage, and cleared 18 levels of the Heavenly Ladder, you’re qualified to become the group admin of the Supreme Chat Room!
“Jiang Ming, you’ve become the group admin of the Supreme Chat Room!
“Jiang Ming, the trade feature in the Supreme Chat Room has been activated. Also, as the group admin, you can mute or prevent members from trading.
“Please take note that the trade item is genuine, doesn’t have any marks on it, and doesn’t have any owner.”
Jiang Ming opened his eyes again. He was exhausted but happy.
He was satisfied since he had successfully comprehended 99 special abilities. If he could ascend into the next realm, he could come back here and keep comprehending more special abilities.
Jiang Ming was pleased with the last notification as he did not have to worry about trading items with other people in the Supreme Chat Room anymore. After all, if the item contained a mark that a certain Great Monarch could trace, then he would be in big trouble.
‘I can assure that whoever is behind the Supreme Pagoda, they must be a transcendent being.’
While Jiang Ming was contemplating, he entered the Supreme Chat Room.
It was very lively in the Supreme Chat Room.
