Martial World's
1683 - Court of Law

…
Lin Ming slowly studied alchemy for decades, and had some knowledge of rare materials that came from spiritual lands. When he inhaled the air, he could smell that the liquid flowing out from the lips of the ice giant was nine yin ice marrow, an extremely precious alchemy ingredient. Was this ice giant formed from the nine yin ice marrow?
Before Lin Ming could finish his thoughts, the ice giant rushed forward like a ferocious beast. Throughout his sinister skin, the snow-white markings began to look like snowflakes falling on his body.
Each rune shone, emitting bursts of ice and snow power that made the heart pound.
Ice giants punching repeatedly on earth. With each attack, the ice spikes on his body would pierce through the ground like tree roots, starting to spread through the frozen ground, constantly expanding …
Just as Lin Ming was aware of what was happening, there was a movement under his feet.
A huge ice surge broke through the ground and shot towards Lin Ming.
Lin Ming was shocked. He flipped himself over, easily avoiding this spike of ice.
Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!
Many thick ice spikes shot out from the ground, shooting through the void and chasing after it as if it was manipulated by countless hands. Each ice spike was covered with shining ice runes.
These ice spikes blocked all of the surrounding space, giving Lin Ming no chance to dodge!
Seeing so many ice spikes chasing after him, Lin Ming gnashed his teeth and grandmist space out of his body. The star-heavy grandmist energy overwhelmed all!
Ka ka!
A large number of ice spikes exploded in the grandmist space. However, the broken pieces of ice spikes were still thrusting into Lin Ming's body! Blood rained down on the air!
This battle is brutal!
As the ice giant saw that Lin Ming was injured, a cold light shone in his eyes. It stepped forward, wanting to tear Lin Ming to pieces.
But at this moment his body stiffened. It looked down with doubt towards his chest. On his chest, in the area where Lin Ming's last spear strike had created a gap in his armor, there was a huge wound. A black-clothed martial artist had sneaked an attack and thrust a spear into his chest!
Ka ka!
Countless ice shards broke into pieces. The spear of the black-clothed martial artist was unstoppable! Billions of jins of strength pushed forward, tearing the extremely hard and piercing ice armor all the way to the back!
"Roll!"
The ice giant pitifully shouted, his huge body trembling in the air. The one who sneaked an attack was a black-clothed martial artist completely similar to Lin Ming's appearance; it was Lin Ming's avatar, the Essence Spirit Embryo Stone!
In the rules of this mystic realm, no external item could be used. But, this Essence Spirit Embryo Stone was not among these objects and was considered part of Lin Ming's natural combat power, allowing him to summon it at will. A moment before now, while Lin Ming's true self attacked the ice giant, the Essence Spirit Embryo Stone was waiting, waiting to strike the ice giant's weak point and bring it in one strike!
Rumbling rumbling rumbling!
The ice falls to the earth. From within the ice giant's disintegrating body, a rich aura of Ice Laws began to flow.
However, Lin Ming did not cultivate the Ice Laws. Even if he tried to look at it, he would still not get a good harvest.
Lin Ming had no interest in these Ice Laws. Instead, he looked at the scattered pile of chunks of ice and extended his hand. With a wave, he grasped the void and grabbed a lump of condensed milky white liquid, as if it was milk from a 10,000-year-old stalactite. Then, without further ado, Lin Ming swallowed everything!
This was the nine yin ice marrow contained within the ice giant. Ingesting it like this could be called a waste of heaven's resources. If used in alchemy, the results would be much better.
But Lin Ming had no choice. He had to quickly restore his strength and there was no time for him to rest. In this situation, he would definitely not release this nine yin ice marrow.
At this moment, with a loud rumbling sound, the silver door that Lin Ming had just entered began to slowly dim and disappear.
As Lin Ming blinked, he once again returned to the ancient continent. In front of him, countless golden gates stood once more! In just a few breaths of time, with a creaking sound, another gate turned silver and started rumbling open in front of him!
Passing through the entrance of this gate, another completely different world appeared.
Here, green trees towered into the sky, filled with lush tones and vitality.
But, this life vitality also contained a wild killing intent.
"Second gate …"
Lin Ming took a deep breath. His body is still dripping blood. And since he had just eaten the nine yin ice marrow, a terrifying cold energy still recklessly surged throughout his body. He didn't have enough time to absorb it all.
And now, a new gate had opened before him. Lin Ming knew that he had to face another battle!
Without a doubt, out of all the golden gates above this floating ancient continent, he had to fight through every single person who turned silver! And, he was afraid that he would not be given any time to rest at all. It will be a difficult and drawn-out battle!
And within each gate, the Laws contained within it were different.
Whether it was the elemental Laws of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, thunder, or wind, or perhaps the Laws of Yin and Yang, the Laws of the heavenly soul, the Laws of body transformation, the Beast God, the Nine Stars, or even the, heavenly runes, every single Law might be contained here. This is a completely comprehensive Gate of Laws!
The laws here were not just Asura Laws, but all Laws within the 33 Heavens.
Thus, this was why the gate that led from the second level to the third level was called the Gate of Laws!
By passing through the battles of these various different Laws, one could weaken their own cultivation and understanding. If an unrivalled genius were to fight here, they would become stronger with each successive battle!
It demanded that the trial challenger possess great strength, rich combat experience, boundless endurance, and a terrifying understanding of Laws. Moreover, it was necessary that the trial challengers had an incredible perception where they could constantly understand and absorb what was happening during the battle.
Only with all this can one pass this test!
As Lin Ming fought his way here, he could vaguely feel the difficulty in this trial slowly escalating. If he could not adapt to this increasing difficulty then sooner or later he would be eliminated.
The World Laws did not give Lin Ming the opportunity to rest. Blue light shot out from the silver gate, wrapped it inside and sucked it inside.
Passing through this gate was a vast primitive forest. Any casual tree was tens of people thick and a thousand feet tall!
The azure flood dragon circled above the 1,000-foot-tall crown of a huge tree, its greedy eyes locked onto Lin Ming!
Lin Ming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, brilliant fighting intent flashing in his eyes.
"Reproof!!"
The azure flood dragon roared and came hurtling towards Lin Ming!
Lin Ming's mind focused. Above his head, the ghost of the nine sky stars hung high in the sky. A majestic and majestic Heavenly Immortal Retribution floated within Lin Ming's inner world sea. In the middle of this Dao Palace, the heavenly retaliatory power contained within the myriad of existent beings triggered life. There was the roar of thunder, heavenly flames, and even the icy cold yin from the underworld…
"Momentum of the world, gather it into my body!"
Lin Ming growled. The Heavenly Retribution Dao Palace suddenly rose up in the space of Lin Ming's inner world, stretching through heaven and earth, emitting brilliant rays of light. For a time, with the Heavenly Retribution Dao Palace as the medium, the power of heaven and earth flowed into Lin Ming's mortal body!
The Heavenly Retribution Dao Palace could connect with the momentum of the world and use the power of heavenly retribution. Within the small universe that was one's body, he could correspond with the true universe indefinitely, communicate with heaven and earth, allowing a martial artist to become one with the world.
When this Dao Palace opened to the extreme and displayed its true potential, the sky would shower blood, the earth would be destroyed, the void would be torn apart, and even the gods and ghosts would cry!
At that moment, Lin Ming felt his strength erupt to its limit. Starlight from the nine highest heavens gathered into Lin Ming's inner world, bringing with it a heavy titanic potential and while slashing the azure flood dragon, suppressing it. The ultimate death energy contained within the Heavenly Retribution Dao Palace, a symbol of heaven punishment, was like the ultimate poison as it invaded the life-filled aura of the blue flood dragon.
Rumbling rumbling rumbling!
The body of the blue flood dragon slowed down when faced with a difficult situation. The powerful life force energy that exploded with it had been stopped and suppressed. This blue flood dragon was like a cunning fish, jumping around, looking for a crack, wanting to swim against this river of energy and attack Lin Ming!
However, Lin Ming had gone through countless battles before. How could he give this blue flood dragon a chance to do that?
In battle, if Lin Ming found a method to seize the flow of battle and defeat his enemies, he would absolutely not let them go. With a loud shout, all of his true essence crazily revolved. Both of his hands flashed, forming countless seals that carried the aura of the Asura Heavenly Core Laws, all of which shot towards the azure flood dragon.
Myriad Demon Karmic Wheel!
Whorl whorl whorl whorl –
The dense and thick death energy turned into a black vortex that crashed into the azure flood dragon.
The blue flood dragon was already unable to handle the heavenly vengeance force. In this situation, it had been destroyed by the Myriad Demon Karmic Wheel.
The Myriad Demon Karmic wheel was refined with evil spirits and demon kings. It was a gathering of extreme yin energy and slaughter energy. It was a power that suppressed the wood-attribute life aura of the blue flood dragon to the extreme.
Moreover, the Myriad Demon Karmic Wheel came from the Asura Sutra. It was one of Lin Ming's strongest attacks!
Immediately, under the double barrage of the Heavenly Retribution Heaven Palace and the Myriad Demon Karmic Wheel, the azure flood dragon howled in pain again and again. His glowing blue body dimmed as he struggled wildly!
Xiu!
Lin Ming took this opportunity to slide forward along with the Essry Spirit Embryo Stone. Together, the two spears thrust out the blue flood dragon!
Engaged!
The spear light exploded. The blue flood dragon was almost torn in half by Lin Ming's attack. His blood rained down on the earth!
In the hail that covered the world, Lin Ming grabbed onto the gallbladder of the bright blue flood dragon. This fist-sized blue dragon gallbladder was beating like a living heart.
Without any hesitation, Lin Ming swallowed the gallbladder of this blue flood dragon.
This battle is too brutal. He had to find a way to defend himself through this battle, otherwise even with his resilience he would still not be able to last much longer.
When the blue flood dragon gallbladder entered his stomach, it turned into rich and pure wood origin energy that flooded his body, revitalizing him.
This blue flood dragon was not a true flood dragon, but a dragon manifested from the roots of the wood spirit. This blue flood dragon gallbladder was also not the gallbladder of the blue flood dragon, but the essence of the wood spirit root.
Now, the essence of the wood spirit root had been devoured by Lin Ming.
As Lin Ming engaged in a series of brutal battles, Xiao Moxian and Soul Empress Sheng Mei, who both chose the heaven-step difficulty, also engaged in fierce battles.
The Gate of Laws contained every Law within the 33 Great Daos. Each Law condensed into an enemy and in order to pass the trial, one had to take down every opponent.
Xiao Moxian was younger than Lin Ming so her difficulty was slightly lower. The enemy he was facing was naturally much weaker than the one Lin Ming was facing.
But Sheng Mei was different. Although he had chosen a lower difficulty, due to his thin age, the enemies he had to face were tens or hundreds of times stronger than Lin Ming's opponents!
In Sheng Mei's trial, every time she fought, the void would shatter and the earth would tremble!
