Martial Research Master

246 MAD KING’S WISH

The stone stele was a majestic monument which stood alone in this space. The aura radiated from it managed to awe Li Meng. He couldn’t help but get shocked by its power and was attracted to go near and inspect it. Li Meng took heavy footsteps until he finally stood before the stone stele.

“Just who was the creator of this art?” He couldn’t help but talk to himself.

“I don’t remember what I am being remembered in the current world.” A voice spoke up. Due to his prior experiences, Li meng wasn’t surprised. He simply nodded and started to inspect his surroundings.

“You are quite calm for someone who has managed to step into this place. It seems like your luck is pretty good. I could see faint lines of some powerful fate on your body. This shouldn’t be the first time you have managed to score a major inheritance is it, boy.”

Li Meng was surprised to hear these words. The line of fate this voice was referring to must be the Pill-sword saint’s inheritance. Even though it was Lu Ming who got the inheritance, the voice here managed to feel it. Just what sort of phenomenon was this?

“I did get the fortune to inherit a powerful figure’s inheritance.”

“Can I know which figure it was?”

“The elder was called Pill-Sword saint.” Li meng didn’t hide the secret.

“I guess that old man finally managed to gain a worthy disciple.” The voice said in a satisfied tone.

.....

“Does senior know the Pill-sword saint?”

“He was a hegemonic figure when I was at my peak. The name of the sword-bearing alchemist wreaked havoc in the whole world. I didn’t have the fortune to ever confront him in a fight, but the famed must be based on some amount of truth.”

“He must have a lot of criteria while accepting a disciple. You certainly qualify to bear such a huge fortune.”

“I thank the senior for his kind words. This junior expects to know your identity.”

“As I said, I don’t remember what they refer to me in today’s world, but at my peak, I was called the MAD THUNDER KING. My identity doesn’t hold relevance in this world anymore. Since you managed to pass my test and set foot in this space, I would deliver the fruits of labour to you.”

“This world was created within the stone displayed outside, to hold a piece of my inheritance. The stele you see here contains the core arts which I formulated and developed on for my whole life. Before my disappearance, I managed to create 18 volumes, all of which could be passed on to you.”

Li Meng looked at the stone stele with expectant eyes.

“No need to get agitated for something which is yet to arrive within your hands. Before deciding whether or not to pass this art to you, I would like to ask something.”

“Please do so, senior.” Li Meng said in a respectful tone.

“What is the motive behind your martial path?” The question was something which had a clouded set of answers for most of the martial artists. The voice thought of giving some time to Li Meng but was surprised.

“To Dominate the Heavens themselves.” Li Meng answered without any hesitation. The voice was surprised for some time.

“Your emotion doesn’t waiver from your words. I am impressed. There is someone who is trying to overturn the heavens himself.” The voice laughed for a moment and then continued. “The art mentioned could very well lead you to that point.”

“Sorry to inform the senior, but this wouldn’t become the core art of my choice. I want to create my path to hegemony based on the art of my own creation.”

The voice remained silent for some time. “Is art as powerful as the first two volumes of my art?”

“I would like the senior to judge that”

“Go ahead. Show me what you managed to create.” Li Meng shook his body and warmed up his body for some time. He wanted to showcase the most powerful version of Dominator’s fist. He then went ahead and showcased it.

For the whole duration, the stone stele kept quiet and analyzed.

“I have to commend your creation. I never expected someone to be able to integrate these many laws into a single art. How many intents did you manage to comprehend?”

“I have comprehended sword, Spear, Hammer, Bow, shield, palm and fist intents.” The voice was speechless. Is there any kind of intent remaining that he needs to comprehend?

“How did you manage to do that? Your bone age is only in mid-twenties. The only explanation is another bout of good fortune. I guess the other line of fate is connected to that thing.”

Li Meng kept his silence. He couldn’t reveal the secret of Crimson Lord’s world. It was too big of a secret to be shared with someone.

“I guess you have your own reason. I wouldn’t try to pry any further. You are the only one since the time I set up this stele to walk the correct path. You were destined to get the whole art the moment you stepped in here.”

“There were others who came before me.”

“There is no lack of heaven-defying talent in this world. What this world lacks is proper wisdom to walk the correct path. You, of all people, possess that. The very art you managed to create showcases it. This was the last test I designed for my inheritor. The lure of this art is quite massive. Every single word I say is true. This world could truly lead you to become invincible in this world”

“There is always someone above the heavens.”

“I have already surpassed the heavens; hence I am confident in my words.” Li Meng couldn’t understand the voice’s words. Surpassed the heavens. What did that mean?

“Could senior clarify a doubt of mine?”

“Something could only be comprehended when you are strong enough. If one day you can step into the peak step within this world, you will understand what I mean.”

“I only have a single wish for you to fulfil. I want you to develop this art to the very peak of its form. During my time in the world, I failed to achieve it. I want you to morph it into a new art and leave it into this world for future generations.”

Li Meng nodded in agreement. He was going to infuse the understanding from Strike of Thunderous palms into the Dominator’s fist.

“I will start transmitting the art now.”
