Chapter 1079 Path of Doom (1)
\'My goal is the end of this path, which means this Heavenly Punishment won\'t end until I reach it…\' Ace mused grimly. At this moment, the tendrils of lightning suddenly cackled and shot towards him like an endless rain of lightning!
Ace\'s expression changed slightly as he used his movement skills. He dodged the lightning bolts filled with despair and destruction. The law contained within them was far more potent than he had ever encountered in his previous heavenly punishment, and this was just the start of the path.
With each step Ace took forward, the intensity of the lightning increased. Bolts thicker than his body snaked towards him even more fiercely as if obstructing his path.
By using his agility and swift reflexes, he navigates a precarious dance, leaping over chasms of crackling energy and dodging bolts that seem to hone in on him with an unsettling sentience.
However, at this moment, Ace suddenly felt something trembling in his heart with great excitement, and before he could react, a huge sword phantom appeared behind him; it was the sword heart!
Ace was bewildered when those lightning bolts seemed to have encountered an invisible suction force. The lightning bolts that Ace dodged started to strike the sword phantom before they vanished.
A grimace contorted Ace\'s face as the first bolt of lightning connected with the phantom sword, his body trembling from the sheer power coursing through it. Relief warred with apprehension as he felt his depleted Qi begin to replenish, sweet nectar washing over his exhausted soul.
But for some reason, Ace felt rejuvenated as his exhausted Qi began to replenish with this heavenly thunder.
Ace looked towards the sword phantom and was astounded when he saw pulsing runes slowly emerging on the dark phantom. He could feel the excitement from his sword cores, which were now within his sword heart!
\'Well, I\'ll be damn, I didn\'t know they would evolve into something like this after I\'d comprehend the sword heart. Furthermore, they seemed to be far more active than before, and they\'re somehow converting the lightning into Heavenly Qi of Martial and Soul now. Just what kind of monstrosities had I created?\' Ace wondered in amazement, and it wasn\'t he complaining, if anything he was feel elated because this would make his journey easier.
Now that his Qi was replenishing with the Heavenly Thunder, Ace let a few bolts strike his body as well to see what happened. The moment those bolts touched his body, Ace\'s eyes widened, and he groaned in pain.
\'Bad idea!\' Ace quickly dodged other bolts and endured the extremely painful lightning bolts in his body, just like he remembered them.
\'So only those bolts entering the sword heart can turn into heavenly Qi, huh? If I do this the old way, I\'ll be screwed. I can\'t let this lightning touch my body. So, I better focus on getting out of here while the sword cores are still absorbing the lightning. After all, from my previous experience, once they had their fill, they\'ll stop absorbing the lightning…\'
Ace dodged the lightning bolts, which became increasingly potent and thicker as he moved forward, but his speed was still superior, and with his Qi replenishing, he was doing far better than he thought.
Furthermore, Ace noticed that there was something else mixed within the Heavenly Qi that was strengthening his body, and he suddenly felt like something deep within him was becoming loose. It was a peculiar feeling that he never had before, and his body became more powerful as more and more lightning turned into heavenly Qi and refined his body.
When Ace traveled the path of lightning around 1000 meters deep, the crimson lightning suddenly had hues of blue and white mixed in it, and it was far more powerful than before.
Each step forward was a dance of elegant evasion, his muscles burning with exertion as he dodged ever-thickening bolts of crimson lightning tinged with blue and white.
The sword phantom behind him hummed with power. Its dark form was now half-filled with unknown crimson rune markings. As this tri-colored lightning got absorbed, the previous rune marking started to take the color of heavenly lightning, and new rune markings of the same color appeared.
It started to absorb the lightning even more fiercely, and Ace felt endless power coursing through his body. However, he still didn\'t dare take the lightning directly through his body and continued to dodge while moving forward.
Another 1000 meters were covered like that, and at this moment, on the path ahead, thick pillars of lightning rose—red, Blue, White, Green, and Purple lightning!
Furthermore, the pillars left a very small gap between them to cross, and with a single mistake, he would be within those lightning pillars he didn\'t want to happen at any cost.
Moreover, the sword phantom\'s entire blade was now filled with rune markings pulsing in tri-colored lightning, and only its hilt remained. Ace could feel that it was reaching some kind of limit, so he was anxious about quickly reaching this place\'s end.
But how could his wish be granted so easily? This was the primordial path of ascension corroded with the heavenly punishment, also dubbed the World Calamity Despair Thunder. Together, they made the Path of Doom. There\'sno way it would be so easy…
Ace somehow managed to pass the sea of lightning pillars by covering another 1000 meters, while the sword phantom behind him was now fully lit in those rune lines and dyed in five-
color lightning.
This time, the lightning pillars became more thinker like walls, and two more colors of lightning were added, Yellow and Gray, making them seven-colored lightning pillars. For the first time, Ace felt a new law among them, which he wasn\'t aware of, but he could feel it was far, far more dangerous than all the laws present in it combined, and he could feel the faint killing intent in that seven-color lightning!
At this moment, just as Ace was becoming a little restless, the system\'s voice rang,
"[Phantoms of Fallen Aspirants of the Primordial Ascension Path are about to materialize!]"
