Chapter 55: Strength Test
Chapter 55: Strength Test
They were currently in a small wooden house that only had one room.
When Luo Tian came out of the wooden house, he found a stretch of wheat around the house.
The aura there was very fresh yet quite thin.
"This seems like the mortal world?" he said.
"This is the world you visited before," Yingyue replied.
"What, then what happened here?"
Luo Tian was now in his true personality, so he felt quite uncomfortable.
"This planet is empty now, there's no one here anymore."
"...."
He looked at Yingyue wide-eyed, he didn't understand what she meant.
"The war has become very fierce, the enemy is coming with very powerful artifacts. However, one of the people you trained managed to create a space artifact that can transport everyone in this world. That person then brought them all from the three continents and small continents to the upper realm."
"The blood demons who realized they managed to escape and found nothing else on the planet finally retreated from here. And now the planet is empty, there are only beasts here. Maybe some of them have become spiritual monsters."
"Did you help those people?" Luo Tian asked.
Creating a space artifact that could transport everyone in the world, was definitely not something that was easy for an earthly immortal.
Yingyue nodded lightly before replying, "I knew you would feel uncomfortable if they lost."
"Thank you."
Luo Tian grabbed her waist and kissed her cheek.
"By the way, have Leng Ning and Elder Lu gone."
They only promised a hundred years, Luo Tian felt guilty if Yingyue couldn't use their help in these hundred years.
"They've been gone a long time. I naturally won't allow myself to suffer a loss. When I realized you might be unconscious for a long time, I told them to go and pay their debts another time."
"Oh, you really are sly." Luo Tian smiled wryly after hearing her answer.
"I want to see your strength, how strong are you now?"
"Mm, if I just rely on my cultivation, my strength might just be mediocre, after all, it's cultivation that comes naturally, there's no technique I practice. But,"
"Stop making small talk! Of course, I just want to see the power of that black sword."
"Well, let me try, I want to know too."
He then jumped into the middle of the wheat field. In the golden body realm, he still couldn't fly if he didn't use his star power.
Yingyue flew over to him and stopped about two meters away from him. Of course, with her strength, she wasn't worried at all about the shockwaves released by him.
He took a deep breath, he didn't send his consciousness into his spiritual world, but he could still watch it from the outside.
He stared at the sword, the dark energy in the sword had increased drastically since the last time he saw it. As his cultivation increased, it also secretly refined spiritual energy and turned it into dark energy.
He then released his cultivation base, making his body emit a spiritual aura while his complexion became slightly golden.
After that, only then did he release that dark energy into his spiritual world. Immediately after that his eyes went cold while his aura pressure surged drastically.
Dark light radiated from his body and enveloped the wheat field.
The yellowed field immediately withered as it was hit by that dark light.
Cobweb-like cracks then appeared in the field.
Luo Tian felt so strong now that he felt like he could cut a mountain in half with a single blow, it was definitely not something a golden body could do.
Yingyue stepped to approach him narrowing her eyes. The dark light touched her body, but it was like a grain of sand falling in the ocean, it couldn't even cause a splash.
"Try to attack me," she said.
Attack Yingyue? Even the meanest of men would probably hesitate to do so.
Of course, for other couples, it wasn't too much when they were practicing, but it was too much for a Yingyue.
It was like in some mortal kingdoms where commoners were not allowed to touch members of the royal family even with the aim of saving them. Likewise with Yingyue, she was the highest noble in the universe.
No one deserved to touch her, not to mention hitting her. It was like insulting heaven itself.
However, even though his heart regarded her as the most important figure in his life, he also thought there was no problem at all just hitting her to test his strength.
It was something that was acceptable with his current personality.
He unhesitatingly sent his fist towards her.
His fist moved as fast as lightning, but the moment a purple light appeared in front of Yingyue, it immediately froze.
"You actually sent your fists without hesitation huh," she said while knitting her brows.
Even though she was the one who told him to do it, she didn't seem happy that he did it without hesitation.
But she didn't seem planning on blaming it any further. She added, "Forget it!"
"The power of your punch should be equivalent to that of a spiritual king, that dark energy increases your battle power to the equivalent of two realms above you."
"Can anyone achieve that?" he asked, pulling back his hand.
He'd never heard of anyone achieving that, but there were probably people he didn't know about.
"Well, the bloodlines of the Heavenly Emperor and Dragon Emperor might not be as strong as that dark energy, but perhaps there were figures in ancient times who could achieve that."
"Of course, they still can't compare to that dark energy. After all, it's now in a very limited state. We can't guess how strong it would be without those chains. Perhaps, in the higher realms, you will still have such combat power."
"That's what I thought too." Luo Tian nodded in agreement at her last words.
"By the way, there's still something I haven't shown you."
"Oh? Is it related to your left eye suddenly turning black?"
"Yes."
"Okay, show me."
"Mm."
He nodded.
He then closed his left eye before opening it again.
