My military branches can Evolve Infinitely

In a situation where there are many strong martial artists stationed, Dragon Sleep Valley would not launch an attack lightly.

At this moment, in the heart of the battle zone.

Within a newly-built arena-like structure.

The ground is spacious, emitting a cold, faint light.

Two figures stand at opposite ends, confronting each other from a distance.

On the right, stands a brawny man with his upper half bare, his muscles knotted and bulging.

Red flames slowly rise around his body, like smoke, like fire, accompanied by the faint sounds of chains being split asunder, fueling a violent, terrifying gale.

"To seal one's physical strength with shackles and to cut oneself free when necessity dictates – that's extremely ruthless."

"But if he weren't that ruthless, how could General Wutai have forged such an immensely powerful path for himself?"

Inside the arena, there are a few spectators.

They are none other than Green Mountain and Rain Dust, who had witnessed Wutai demonstrating his divine power a few days ago, subjugating heaven and earth with his fists and feet.

The man standing opposite Wutai is the temporary guardian of the battle zone, a formidable presence renowned throughout Tai Xuan, throughout the Eternal World – Sword Lord Liushi!

He had agreed to be Wutai's sparring partner.

This is a mutual recognition between strongmen, warriors, and ruthless fighters.

After all, Sword Lord Liushi is indeed a true ruthless man, often inflicting injuries upon himself.

Mu Yuan was also watching this fight.

"Perhaps, this opportunity could reveal the gap between our own fighters and a true Law Realm warrior."

All of Wutai's shackles are now undone.

Boom——!

The solid ground of the Miracle Building cracks, forming an immense spiderweb of fissures.

Before the sound could spread, Wutai's figure, enshrouded in dense blood flames, had already appeared in front of Sword Lord Liushi. His gaze sharpened, and his fists hammered down like meteors in a relentless barrage.

Ora Ora Ora Ora——

Wutai throws punches, Liushi responds.

Sword Lord Liushi grips the unsheathed Blood Sword, parrying Wutai's punches with pinpoint accuracy.

The dull, heavy impacts explode throughout the arena, reverberating.

Lord Rain Dust is shocked to discover that she cannot keep track of the two figures in the arena – she cannot keep up with Wutai's speed – she can only see terrifying sound ripples exploding in the air.

Far away, the ground caves in with a series of thuds, a mere side effect of their battle.

Even further away, the Enchantment on the walls buzzes, grows dim, and then crackles and splits.

Suddenly,

"Bang——!"

The two figures reappear high in the distance.

Wutai still maintains the position of throwing a punch.

Fist meets scabbard; the force of the punch rips through, stirring up an endless storm.

He has undergone a drastic change now.

A dense flame still rises around his body, but it's not bulging muscles that lie beneath, but a suit of dark, full-body armor.

Such an opponent deserves an all-out battle.

Peak Battle Fist!

The light in Sword Lord Liushi's eyes subtly shifts.

"Clang——"

The Blood Sword, stained with the blood of countless legendary beasts, is finally drawn.

A hint of madness begins to spread across Sword Lord Liushi's calm visage.

Terrible visions of mountains of corpses and seas of blood emerge behind him.

This is no illusion.

The rich scent of blood is already overwhelming, filling the entire space of the arena.

After a pause—

"Boom——!!!"

All of the enchantments within the arena fracture, and the solid ground and walls, riddled with cracks, teeter on the edge of collapse.

Both figures land on the ground.

Wutai has forty-four wounds on his body.

Half are from the sword.

Half are self-inflicted.

His breath is weak, but he stands tall, the will to battle undiminished in his eyes.

"Fighting, exhilarating!"

Sword Lord Liushi touches his chest.

The shell of blood on his body has silently cracked.

He is wounded.

Under his intent filled with killing aura, Wutai not only didn't take a step back but managed to wound him.

And this power...

It's not just from the physical body.

Sword Lord Liushi licks his lips.

"Exhilarating."

...

The Miracle Building is on the verge of collapse.

Lord Rain Dust holds onto the already broken railing to prevent herself from falling.

But...

```

"So strong? It even forced Sword Lord Liushi to get serious!"

Previously, she had seen General Wutai demonstrate his divine power, but that was under the Heaven-Earth Seal.

During the Heaven-Earth Seal, the Crimson Dragon was also affected, unable to use the Power of Heaven and Earth.

Their physical strength was just weak in comparison to the Crimson Dragon's, making their disadvantage quite significant.

However, Wutai's physical strength seemed even stronger than that of the Crimson Dragon, so the Heaven-Earth Seal actually became his advantage. He slaughtered the monsters with even more ease.

"Even without the Heaven-Earth Seal, his combat power must be terrifyingly strong!"

"At least in a burst state, that power is enough to make one's courage falter!"

Her own top powerhouse, 'Church of Sky and Water·Ya La,' was now trembling slightly. Such a punch could kill; if one wasn't careful, it could really kill!

Rain Dust Lord looked toward Tianyuan in the distance, who appeared to be deep in thought.

What was he pondering?

He couldn't possibly be thinking about how to deal with a powerhouse at the level of Sword Lord Liushi, could he?

...

Green Mountain Lord was relatively more composed.

"The burst strength is indeed terrifying, but the weaknesses are also evident."

"The burst duration is short, and it's all physical strength."

He pondered.

He quickly came up with a counter-strategy.

He was confident about facing General Wutai.

But was that really something to be proud of?

"The ten-thousand-meter Domain-level powerhouse of Tianyuan seems to be that Heavenly Marshal named Duo Lai."

"So between Tian Yuan Wutai and Tian Yuan Duo Lai, who is stronger?"

...

"The gap between Wutai and Sword Lord Liushi is not small."

"So what if it were Duo Lai, or Dead Bone, facing a powerhouse at the level of Sword Lord Liushi?"

Lord Shepherd was pondering.

Just now, to powerhouses like those from Green Mountain and Rain Dust, the scene might have seemed like mere colliding shadows, storms, and constant booming.

But that was not what he saw.

He saw the golden light of Wutai's fighting spirit, brilliant and resplendent, undying and indomitable.

He also saw the large, conspicuous, and suffocating Conceptual Patterns.

The blood-colored concept surged like waves of blood, containing the concepts of slaughter, blood, and immortality.

Slaughter was the main focus, supported by blood and immortality.

The three interwoven, powerful and with a profound charm.

Under this vast conceptual onslaught, the elemental particles in the world, the Power of Heaven and Earth, and domains might all be 'slaughtered' clean.

In other words, Sword Lord Liushi had the ability to artificially create a 'Dustless Land.'

Places like the 'Dustless Land' or other special rule environments had little to no effect on him.

He was already a Conceptual Level powerhouse.

And Mu Yuan also had some understanding of concepts.

"With the concept of slaughter, Sword Lord Liushi could possibly nourish slaughter with killing, continuously recovering himself amid the slaughter, never running dry."

Of course, he wasn't clear on the specifics of the opponent's conceptual abilities.

'Name' is just an abstraction of the concept.

The specific effects and focuses vary from person to person.

Similarly, the cultivation of concepts also varies depending on the individual.

Or perhaps...

Tai Xuan had a wealth of experience and techniques for cultivating the Heaven and Earth Realm, thanks to the accumulation of predecessors.

However, in the cultivation of the Law Realm and concepts, the Tai Xuan Alliance had little relevant information. The few available were marked 'for reference only' and 'do not imitate directly.'

The path of conceptual cultivation has no one to teach, no prior path to follow.

One can only rely on oneself.

And perhaps, two or three fellow travelers on this journey.

"Dead Bone's primary concept is 'Death and Life.'"

"Duo Lai's primary concept is 'Devouring.'"

Their practice methods were completely different.

Aside from the most basic observation of the natural patterns (slow and inefficient) and absorbing fitting treasures (rare treasures), both found their own paths.

Dead Bone awakened the Undead.

The Undead symbolize death, yet at the same time, they are a form of life. They bathe in death for rebirth.

Dead Bone also explored many different pathways.

Duo Lai's path was simple, direct, and the effects were not slow to manifest.

"Awooo~~!"

It stood at the peak of Black Mountain, devouring the filthy qi of the world.

Devouring ordinary lands;

Devouring the Frenzied Area;

Devouring Red Mist regions;

This was a new battle zone.

Where the light of heaven and the gloom converge.

Duo Lai stood here, engaging in the act of devouring.

The effects of its cultivation were significant. Although, it too was completely clueless about the reasons.
