Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 842: Chapter 842: How Large Is the Small World?

Xiao Yi pondered.

Duanmu Palace Master did not interrupt, continuously transferring power through his hands.

After a while, Xiao Yi opened his mouth, ”Duanmu Palace Master, may I ask about cultivation after the Heavenly Extreme Realm?”

”Earth Extreme Peak, mastering ninety percent of Martial Arts Power.”

”Heavenly Extreme Realm, mastering one hundred percent of Martial Arts Power. That is already a complete Martial Arts path; what about after that?”

”Is it impossible to continue cultivating this Martial Arts path any further?”

”I always feel that even with my current cultivation, the end of this long Martial Arts Dao is still very far away from me.”

Xiao Yi’s face became somewhat confused.

After the Heavenly Extreme, after completing the Martial Arts, what exactly is there?

”Hehe.” Duanmu Palace Master chuckled, saying, ”A complete Martial Arts, once reaching one hundred percent, is complete.”

”But that doesn’t mean you can’t continue cultivating.”

”And it definitely doesn’t mean it’s the end.”

”Heaven and Earth Martial Arts encompass everything in this world.”

”Countless Martial Arts, and you’ve only mastered one of them fully, yet you’re already thinking about the end of the Martial Arts Dao?”

”Hmm?” Upon hearing this, the confusion on Xiao Yi’s face gradually faded.

”I understand.”

”Hmm, very good.” Duanmu Palace Master smiled with satisfaction, ”Guiding a Heavenly Talent like you who understands at once is truly convenient.”

As he spoke, Duanmu Palace Master glanced at Wind Hall Master on the side and said lightly, ”I remember when Old Man Feng was guiding Lih Fengxing; that Lih Fengxing was as dumb as a pig, confused for a long time.”

Wind Hall Master pursed his lips, then directly looked at Xiao Yi.

”The Martial Arts Dao after the Heavenly Extreme Realm is to continue pursuing and mastering other Martial Arts.”

”For others, other Heavenly Talents, upon hearing that even after mastering a complete Martial Arts, it’s still just a tiny piece of the vast universe of Martial Arts.”

”They would all feel confused, powerless, and even frightened.”

”But you, apart from a slight confusion, felt nothing else, and even easily shook off the confusion.”

Wind Hall Master emphasized, ”Kid, for you to show such a reaction; either you’re an idiot who doesn’t understand at all.”

”Or your mental capacity and acceptance are so formidable that you instantly grasped it.”

”And clearly, you’re not an idiot; as for your mental capacity, strong as it is, it still doesn’t reach the level of us old guys, calm and unflustered.”

”Then there’s only one possibility left...”

Wind Hall Master stared at Xiao Yi, ”You are very confident, no matter how difficult the Martial Arts Dao may become, you simply don’t care.”

”I can’t quite grasp where you get such incredible confidence at your age.”

”Would such vast Martial Arts seem so easy in your eyes?”

Xiao Yi gave a faint smile, ”Wind Hall Master, you flatter me.”

”I just think, if you don’t even have confidence in yourself, how can you talk about walking this Martial Arts Dao?”

”Moreover, the Martial Arts Dao is not something that the heavens and earth force you to walk.”

”It’s destined for yourself to keep walking since the moment you became a Martial Artist.”

”It’s Martial Artists themselves who long to reach the end of the Martial Arts Dao, to one day be above the heavens and earth.”

”Since it’s the path you chose, why not be confident?”

”Hmm, very good.” Wind Hall Master nodded, ”On the long Martial Arts Dao, many Martial Artists forget their original intent halfway, passively walking.”

”It’s quite commendable that you still understand the significance of being a Martial Artist.”

”However, I always feel your immense confidence seems overly arrogant.”

”It’s not that I dislike your arrogance, it’s just, too much arrogance might harm yourself.”

Wind Hall Master’s tone carried a hint of inexplicable earnestness.

”Heh.” Xiao Yi smiled faintly, ”When one knows they have no retreat, no choice; if merely self-harm makes it possible to complete many necessary things, it would be quite worthwhile.”

”You...” Wind Hall Master wanted to say something.

Duanmu Palace Master interrupted, ”Old Man Feng, you’re so talkative.”

”Kid, what you need to do now is choose your first complete Martial Arts.”

”Yes.” Xiao Yi gathered his thoughts.

Being guided by Duanmu Palace Master, he needed to focus on his cultivation.

Xiao Yi continued to ask, ”If the cultivation after the Heavenly Extreme Realm involves pursuing other Martial Arts.”

”Then where does the strength of a Heavenly Extreme Realm Martial Artist originate from?”

”After all, Martial Arts Power cannot be overlapped; a single ultimate Martial Arts should be the peak strength of this Martial Artist.”

It is well known that Martial Arts Power cannot be overlapped.

Therefore, regardless of how many Martial Arts a Martial Artist cultivates simultaneously, their fundamental strength would not change significantly aside from having more techniques.

So, when a single ultimate Martial Arts has emerged.

What is the point of cultivating other Martial Arts?

Duanmu Palace Master nodded and said, ”This is the reason I advise you to choose wisely.”

”Indeed, Martial Arts Power cannot be overlapped; but... domains can be.”

”Overlapping domains?” Xiao Yi frowned slightly.

”Exactly.” Duanmu Palace Master explained, ”The reason Martial Arts Power can’t be overlapped is because it is Heaven and Earth Power.”

”But domains are different.”

”Domains are the means of the Martial Artist, the power of the Martial Artist themselves.”

Xiao Yi’s eyes lit up, ”I understand. Complete Martial Arts are transformed into domains; Heavenly Extreme Realm experts completely transform the Martial Arts into personal power in the form of domains.”

”Since it’s personal power, it can indeed be overlapped.”

”Smart.” Duanmu Palace Master nodded.

”However, there is a hierarchy to this overlapping; you must possess a domain formed from a sufficiently powerful ultimate Martial Arts to carry other Martial Arts domains.”

”Simply put, the cultivation after the Heavenly Extreme Realm is hierarchical.”

”Your first complete Martial Arts becomes the main martial path.”

”Later on, when you control the second complete Martial Arts, the third, the fourth, and even more.”

”They all need to be supported by the first complete Martial Arts.”

”In fact, the cultivation after the Heavenly Extreme Realm has much more to it; but with your talent, a casual bit of guidance from me should make you understand.”

Xiao Yi smiled, ”I understand, just waiting for the upcoming breakthrough.”

”Good, very good.” Duanmu Palace Master smiled with satisfaction.

But after a while, Duanmu Palace Master frowned, ”Speaking of which, kid, I’ve already poured a large amount of Primordial Power into your body.”

”Normally, an Earth Extreme Peak Martial Artist would have broken through by now, yet you show no signs.”

”Um.” Xiao Yi smiled awkwardly, ”The Small World of this kid is quite large.”

”A large Small World?” Duanmu Palace Master frowned and increased the output of Primordial Power.

An hour later, Duanmu Palace Master looked a bit displeased, ”Kid, with my cultivation, pouring out Primordial Power for this long.”

”Even a Supreme Genius level Small World would have broken through long ago.”

Another hour passed, and Xiao Yi still showed no signs of breakthrough.

Duanmu Palace Master gritted his teeth, ”Kid, just how big is your Small World?”

”With this much time, even ten Lih Fengxings would have broken through, and you...”

Wind Hall Master said in a deep voice, ”Perhaps he has just undergone numerous battles, with his Qi Spring and Small World Primordial Power completely depleted.”

Duanmu Palace Master glared, ”Old Man Feng, since you knew that, why are you still standing there? Why not lend a hand?”

Wind Hall Master, with a face full of black lines, stepped to Xiao Yi’s side, reached out a palm, and placed it on Xiao Yi’s shoulder.
