Chapter 273: Reinforcements

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Strictly speaking, the power of the natural order is not a high-level energy. It’s more like a qualification and a seal.”

“Even Ancient Realm experts need to consume source power or other energy when using their methods, but these mystical patterns like seals, will spontaneously fuse into the methods of Ancient Realm experts…”

“This also means that 1 can create an unlimited amount of the Zombie Beast

Poison containing the power of the mystical patterns until my Source Power

Poison is depleted.”

After saying this, Essek retracted the Zombie Beast Poison in his hand and looked at Lu Ming’s chest. He could see that the silver patterns on Lu Ming’s chest had already returned to normal from their faint and barely noticeable state.

He pointed at Lu Ming’s silver patterns.

“Pay attention, your patterns were just pierced by me.”

“From that moment on, it’s equivalent to you not mastering the power of the natural order and losing the characteristics of an Ancient Realm expert.”

“However, it only takes a very short time for the power of the mystical patterns to automatically recover, and it doesn’t consume anything.”

Lu Ming remained silent…

A moment later, he could not help but mutter, “Is the gap really this big?”

He had used all his strength just to neutralize Esek’s casual attack… This made Lu Ming’s hard-earned attributes seem like a joke.

Lu Ming could not let go of it…

Esek was silent for a moment before nodding, “Yes, the gap is indeed this big.”

“Mystical patterns and the power of the natural order are above all else.”

“Those with mystical patterns are protected by the power of the natural order, and with the blessings of the mystical patterns, the strength of the Ancient Realm is completely beyond the reach of the Source Realm or the Spirit realm. Your physical strength is nothing…”

With that said, he sighed slightly, patted the ground beside him, and gestured for Lu Ming to sit down.

Lu Ming sat down obediently, and Esek sat down beside him.

He spoke softly with a gentle tone, “I can roughly guess your life experiences.”

“You were born in a small clan and didn’t have good resources or a good mentor to guide you.”

“But you have talent.”

“It’s not just talent in cultivating Source Power Skills, but also talent in cultivating Body Refinement Techniques.”

“You’re still young, right?”

Since Esek had asked him, Lu Ming nodded, “Not old.”

“Oh, a few hundred years old? That’s about right. As a genius of a small clan, reaching this level at the age of three hundred to five hundred years is already quite remarkable.”

Esek rushed to answer, and it made Lu Ming hold back the number twenty-six he had in mind.

Then Esek sighed and said, “So I can understand how you feel.”

“You actually don’t rely on Source Power skills in your usual battles. After all, you don’t have the resources and can’t find Source Realm or even Ancient Realm Source Power skills. So, your greatest reliance in battle should be your physical strength.”

“As for physical strength… the higher the level, the less effective it is.”

After saying that, Esek looked at Lu Ming with some pity, “Did you advance by skipping levels?”

Lu Ming thought for a moment and nodded.

“Yes.”

“You’ve never experienced the Source Realm?”

“Hmph.”

“Then 1 guess you don’t know that your physical strength, while top-notch in the Source Realm, is far from being dominant.”

“Not to mention in the Ancient Realm, your physical strength would probably be considered inadequate. Your giant form of physical strength from before might be the lowest tier in the Ancient Realm…”

Lu Ming could not help but open his mouth and ask in confusion.

“Isn’t physical strength not important in the Ancient Realm?”

He thought that his physical strength was not inferior to others in the Ancient Realm…

Esek said softly, “It’s not important, but it’s not important when compared to the mystical patterns!”

“Stronger physical strength can hold more source power, and Ancient Realm experts also have to consume Source Power in battles. Moreover, stronger physical strength can enhance resistance to attacks..To put it bluntly, although this thing is not important, the stronger the better. Think about it, when Ancient Realm experts are tired of studying Source Power skills or have reached a bottleneck, they can do a few sets of body forging techniques on the spot to relax and it’s a great thing to cultivate their temperament.

“Moreover, most of the Ancient Realm cultivators advanced step by step from a low level. It has basically become a habit to practice Body Forging technique once a day, and it’s hard to change that habit.”

“Moreover, their Body Forging techniques are of a very high level, at least at the Source Realm. It’s not uncommon to have them in the Ancient Realm. The benefits of Source Realm and Ancient Realm Body Forging techniques are much greater than those of the Mortal Realm and Physique Realm.”

“Moreover, they have all kinds of natural treasures that can nourish the body.

Not to mention that a few lucky people also have huge opportunities.”

“Over the years, how much physical strength do you think this has brought them?”

The more Esek spoke, the more silent Lu Ming became.

In the end, Esek comforted Lu Ming, sighing with emotion and said, “You’re still young.”

“It’s precisely because you’re young that there are endless possibilities in the future.”

“But, it’s also because you’re young that your accumulation is far from enough.”

“However, if you really like to rely on your physical strength to confront your enemies, there’s actually a path you can take.”

This made Lu Ming’s expression change. “What path?”

“Eye of Flesh and Blood mystical patterns.”

Esek mentioned the words “Eye of Flesh and Blood” again and gave a more detailed explanation.

“The Eye of Flesh and Blood is the rule of the physical body, and its strength completely surpasses the gold and silver patterns!”

“After achieving the Eye of Flesh and Blood mystical pattern, your body will immediately become regulated! Your punches and kicks, your muscle tissues, your blood and bones will all be imbued with the power of the mystical patterns!”

“At that time, breaking through all techniques with strength is not a joke. It’s real!”

“This is a path that leads to heaven specially tailored for physical strength experts.”

Lu Ming asked again, “Then how should I obtain the Eye of Flesh and Blood?”

Esek smiled bitterly and shook his head, “If you increase your current physical strength by about eight hundred to a thousand times, it will be about enough.”

Lu Ming fell completely silent.

After a long time, Esek’s expression changed. He stood up and looked into the distance.

After a quick assessment, he said, “That woman seems to have found some helpers… Do you want to take a look?”

When Lu Ming heard this, he put away his frustration.

He nodded slightly, “Okay.”

The resurrected Queen Blade had lost her Source Realm strength and had become a ninth-level Spirit Realm expert.

However, at this moment, Queen Blade had no reason to be disappointed, instead, she was filled with joy.

It was the joy of surviving a calamity.

This was because the reinforcements had finally arrived.

Apart from the characteristics mentioned previously, there was another flaw-like characteristic of the Golden Cicada Shedding Shell ability. It was that the distance for her resurrection could not be too far.

The first time she resurrected, she was transferred from Lu Ming’s house to the training ground.

The second time she resurrected, she moved from the training ground to the Insect nest.

And on the third resurrection, she moved from the nest to a further place. Coincidentally, Cockroach Night had already arrived with its people.

A golden light surged, slowly forming Queen Blade’s body.

As soon as she appeared, Queen Blade’s legs went limp and she fell into the arms of a male roach.

A familiar voice sounded in her ears.

“My good sister, you’ve suffered…”

The sorrowful voice made Queen Blade look up and see the dirty and twisted face at a glance.

Cockroach Night, a roach of the Insect Clan.

This species was famous for their strong reproductive abilities, with each nest capable of producing a thousand to eighteen hundred offspring.

Moreover, their individual strength was not weak either.

But as a trade-off, this species had a significant drawback – they did not look good.

Overall, this Cockroach Night looked like a two-meter-tall upright giant cockroach!

Its thick legs stood firmly on the ground, with six arms spread out on both sides. Its overall appearance was black, with a large carapace on its back.

Two antennae extended from the top of its head, faintly brushing against Queen Blade’s naked and smooth body, causing her to shiver with goosebumps.

However, she had no choice but to submit.

Regardless of how much Queen Blade despised Cockroach Night previously, she had to admit that at this moment, Cockroach Night was her only savior.

Thinking of this, Queen Blade hugged Cockroach Night even tighter.

She endured the foul odor emanating from Cockroach Night as she ran her fingers across his shell chest and had her hand covered in sticky secretions. With a sweet and mournful voice, Queen Blades said, “Brother Cockroach Night, you’re finally here.”

With that said, she gazed affectionately at Cockroach Night, “Brother, let’s leave quickly! Let’s go quickly!”

“Far away from that demon!”

Just as she finished speaking, another voice sounded from the side.

“Leave?! After all this, how do you plan to leave?”

The person who spoke was another cockroach that was not much different from Cockroach Night.

He was Cockroach Night’s second uncle: Cockroach Pavilion!

The only silver pattern of the source of magic on its chest clearly indicated the strength of the Cockroach Pavilion Ancient Realm.

At this moment, Cockroach Pavilion looked at the distant Archean City and said after a long time, “The mission given to you by the higher-ups is to guard Archean City to the death, right?”

Queen Blade remained silent.

“And now, you’ve turned the situation into this?”

Queen Blade remained silent.

She gave up the mission to survive. To her, this was a reasonable choice.

However, Cockroach Pavilion did not think so.

“Letting these zombie beasts cross the Black Grasslands and head to the main battlefield means that they will inevitably influence the course of the battle. Your mission is of great importance, but now that you’ve caused this situation, are you thinking of just walking away?”

“Do you really think that our Insect Clan doesn’t have rules?”

“Forget it. Since I’m here and you’ll soon become a member of my Cockroach family, I’ll help you out, consider it a wedding gift to my nephew.”

Cockroach Night was delighted, “Thank you, Second Uncle.”

Queen Blade shivered and said, “Second… Second Uncle, there are Ancient

Realm enemies in Archean City, and there are two of them!”

These words made Cockroach Pavilion frown.

“Two? Ancient Realm?”

The small Ancient City actually produced two Ancient Realm experts?

This was simply illogical!

But after a brief pause, Cockroach Pavilion laughed sinisterly.

“Two Ancient Realm enemies? Alright! That’s great!”

“Killing an Ancient Realm enemy is a tremendous achievement!”

With that said, Cockroach Pavilion turned around and looked behind. “Then I’ll have to trouble the two of you to help.”

Queen Blade was once again stunned. Then, she followed the Cockroach Pavilion’s gaze and looked further back.

Behind them, two figures stood side by side.

One of them was from the cockroach clan with two silver patterns on his chest.

He was Cockroach Green, the eldest cousin of the Cockroach Pavilion.

The other was a three-meter-tall humanoid figure with a right arm that resembled an insect’s bladed limb. On its right hand blade, a Foundation of Matter pattern was growing!

An Ancient Realm member of the Insect Clan, Cockroach Pavilion’s best friend: Tang Chongye.

Hearing the Cockroach Pavilion’s request, the two of them looked at each other and nodded.

“Alright!”

Queen Blade really wanted to run.

She really did not want to experience Lu Ming’s massage technique again.

However, at this moment, Cockroach Pavilion and the other Ancient Realm experts were present, and Queen Blade had no right to speak.

She could only follow the group and head towards the distant Archean City.

Not long after they set out, they came to a stop.

This was because in front of them, two figures stood side by side, blocking their path.

It was Lu Ming and Esek.

“You’re Esek?”

Cockroach Pavilion’s attention was completely focused on Esek.

After carefully observing the golden patterns on Esek’s hand, the Cockroach Pavilion nodded in satisfaction, “Very good, we found the main culprit directly, saving me a lot of trouble.”

The appearance of the zombie beasts was a significant variable that could affect the outcome of the main battlefield.

Originally, in the battle of the three races, the Insect Clan and Giant Clan already had the upper hand. If these zombie beasts were allowed to run out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, no one could predict what would happen.

The best solution was to block the zombie beasts in the Archean City and deal with the source of all this trouble: Esek.

After muttering this, Cockroach Pavilion instantly exerted strength on its feet and rushed towards Esek. At the same time, it shouted loudly, “Brother Tang, help me!”

Battles between Ancient Realm cultivators were extremely rare.

But, considering the deep-seated enmity between the Insect Clan and the Undead Clan, this battle seemed perfectly reasonable..
