Invincible Over the World-Chapter 42 Innate Warrior
42: Chapter 42 Innate Warrior
42 -42 Innate Warrior
Meng Xia looked at his father, Meng Chen, as blood spurted from his throat and he fell down before him, letting out the loudest scream he had ever made in his life.
His face turned deathly pale, his eyes rolled back, and his pants were wet in an instant.
With a swing of his long spear, Marshal Haotian pierced through his throat.
He did not even glance at the two of them before retracting his spear and returning to Huang Xiaolong’s side, “Young Master, I have arrived late, and for that I’ve startled you!”
Huang Xiaolong shook his head, “It’s not your fault.
If it weren’t for your arrival today, Fei Hou and I wouldn’t know what to do.”
By now, the generals and soldiers from the Marshal Mansion had hurried to the Delicious Restaurant.
Seeing the corpses of Duke Meng Chen and Meng Xia and others on the ground, they were all startled.
“Marshal, what has happened here?!” a general asked cautiously.
Marshal Haotian spoke coldly, “I killed them.
Take care of their bodies.”
Everyone was shocked.
“Drag him out and behead him!” Marshal Haotian then pointed to one of them, the soldier captain who had received Fei Hou’s gold medal but had not gone to the Royal Palace to report.
“Marshal, spare my life, please!
I was wrong, spare me!” The soldier captain, terrified, immediately knelt down, kowtowing and crying out.
Nevertheless, the soldiers by his side dragged him out, and soon after, a scream was heard.
“Young Master, shall we return to the Marshal Mansion together now?” Marshal Haotian asked Huang Xiaolong with utmost respect.
Young Master?!
All the generals and soldiers from the Marshal Mansion were in shock, unable to believe as they looked towards Huang Xiaolong.
“Come forward and kneel to the Young Master!” Marshal Haotian commanded the generals and soldiers of the Marshal Mansion.
“Greetings to the Young Master!” Upon hearing the order, the generals and soldiers from the Marshal Mansion hurried forward and knelt down.
“You may all rise.” Looking at the generals and soldiers kneeling before him, Huang Xiaolong felt somewhat unaccustomed.
These were the generals of the Luotong Kingdom.
Even his grandfather, Huang Qide, would have had to bow in greeting and bend his back to them.
Once everyone had stood up, Huang Xiaolong solemnly said to Marshal Haotian, “Let’s go then.”
Upon hearing their sect leader agree to accompany him to the Marshal Mansion, Marshal Haotian’s face lit up with joy, respectfully responding, “Yes, Young Master, please, after you!”
Thus, Huang Xiaolong, Fei Hou, Marshal Haotian, and the generals and soldiers from the Marshal Mansion made their way back in a majestic procession.
Not long after Huang Xiaolong and the others entered the Marshal Mansion, the news of Marshal Haotian killing Duke Meng Chen, Meng Xia, and many experts from Duke Mansion in the Delicious Restaurant, swept like a hurricane into every corner of the Royal City.
Almost simultaneously, all the major families and nobles within the Royal City were made aware of the news, their expressions changing dramatically.
The murder of a duke in the Royal City was unprecedented in the over a hundred years since the founding of Luotong Kingdom!
“It is said that Duke Meng Chen led his experts from the mansion to besiege the Marshal’s junior brother, but the Marshal became enraged and killed Meng Chen and the others on the spot!”
“That Duke Meng Chen was really unfortunate, having provoked the Marshal.
Although, the Marshal is too domineering and contemptuous of the royal law, daring to publicly kill a duke within the Royal City!” freewebnøvel.com
The heads of the various families in the Royal City, dukes, marquises, and barons discussed the matter, shocked.
Inside the Luotong Royal Palace, King Lu Zhe of the Luotong Kingdom, after listening to his ministers’ reports, pondered for a moment and waved his hand, “I am aware of the situation.
You may all leave.”
The ministers were stunned, not daring to say more, and exited the Great Hall.
They understood that Duke Meng Chen and his son had died in vain.
Now that the King had not commented, it meant he would not pursue the matter further.
That night, the moonlight was hazy; Huang Xiaolong stood in the courtyard of Marshal Mansion with his hands behind his back, looking up at the big and round moon in the night sky, reminiscing about the scene in the restaurant earlier that day.
The incident at the restaurant today once again made him deeply realize that his current strength was still too weak.
Although he was only nine years old and had already reached the Fifth-stage Late Stage Peak, astonishing as that was, in front of those Seventh Stage, Eighth Stage, and Ninth Rank warriors, his Fifth-stage Late Stage Peak strength was still insignificant.
Moreover, the sight of Marshal Haotian descending from the sky, killing more than a dozen Eighth and Ninth Stage warriors with a single strike, and seriously injuring two Tenth Rank warriors, demonstrated that his strength was definitely not just at the Peak of Tenth-Order Late Stage; he had to be a Peak of Tenth-Order Late Stage expert or above!
What kind of strength did one have to be above the Peak of Tenth-Order Late Stage?
Huang Xiaolong had never asked Fei Hou about this, and while he was at Huang Family Manor, his parents never mentioned it either.
After a while, Huang Xiaolong called Fei Hou over.
“Sect Leader, you called for me?
What are your orders?” Fei Hou asked respectfully after arriving.
“Sit.” Huang Xiaolong pointed to a stone chair in the middle of the courtyard, walked over, sat down with Fei Hou, and asked the question that perplexed him.
“What kind of strength is above Peak of Tenth-Order Late Stage?” Upon hearing Huang Xiaolong’s question, Fei Hou paused for a moment before responding, “Sect Leader, once someone breaks through the Tenth-Order Late Stage Peak in our Martial Soul World, they are called an Innate Warrior.”
“Innate Warrior?!” Huang Xiaolong echoed.
“Yes, Sect Leader,” Fei Hou nodded and explained, “When our Martial Soul absorbs nature’s spiritual energy and transforms it into Fighting Energy within our meridians, the Fighting Energy can temper our body.
From first to third rank, a warrior can temper their muscles, fourth to sixth stage can temper their tendons, and seventh to tenth stage can temper their membranes!”
However, from first to tenth stage, Fighting Energy simply can’t strengthen our internal organs.
Only when we break through to the Tenth Order and reach Innate level can the Fighting Energy toughen our internal organs and bones.
Thus, once someone breaks through to Innate level, they can continuously reinforce their body with Fighting Energy, which rapidly strengthens their life force.
Generally speaking, a Peak of Tenth-Order Late Stage expert can live up to a hundred years old at most, but upon breaking through to Innate level, their lifespan is greatly extended.
A typical Innate Expert can live for two hundred years, and those at Innate Peak can sometimes live up to three to four hundred years.”
“Three to four hundred years!” Huang Xiaolong was somewhat astonished.
Fei Hou nodded, “Yes, thirty-some years ago, Brother Haotian had already broken through to Innate.
Don’t be fooled by how he looks to be around his seventies; in fact, he’s already over a hundred and ten years old!”
Huang Xiaolong was surprised; he hadn’t expected Marshal Haotian to be over a hundred and ten years old!
At this moment, Fei Hou added, “When breaking through to the Seventh Rank Warrior, Fighting Energy will form a Qi Sea at the position of the heart.
If we break through to Innate level, the Fighting Energy undergoes a metamorphosis, turning into a liquid form, making Innate Fighting Energy even more powerful.
Furthermore, upon reaching Innate level, the Martial Soul undergoes a transformation and can condense into a physical embodiment!”
“Martial Soul condensing into a physical embodiment!” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes widened incredulously, “If a Martial Soul could condense into a physical entity, wouldn’t it mean that the Martial Soul could also be summoned to fight on its own?!”
“Yes, Sect Leader!” Fei Hou confirmed with a nod, “The higher the Innate level of our Martial Soul, the stronger it will be once it condenses into a physical form upon reaching Innate level.
Take Brother Haotian, for example, his Martial Soul is a Top Level Tenth Grade Martial Soul, the Black Nether Lion.
When summoned now, its strength is not much different from his own.”
If it’s not much different, that meant it was equivalent to an Innate Expert!
This was the real difference between an Innate Expert and a warrior from Postnatal first to tenth stage.
Moreover, Huang Xiaolong considered another question; if he broke through to Innate level and his Martial Soul condensed into a physical form, and given his Martial Soul was the Double Dragons—dragons that could fly—wouldn’t he be able to stand on the Black Dragon with his left foot and the Blue Dragon with his right, flying through the sky?!
And his was a Dual Birth Super Martial Soul, so what heights would his strength reach when he broke through to the Innate level?
(There will be another update around 7 o’clock in the evening.)
