Martial Master

As Liu Xuanrui and the others comprehended the Dao, Qin Chen also immediately closed his eyes, feeling the power within the Martial Intent Grand Array.

Buzz!

The Emperor Crystal continuously emitted an emperor's aura, activating the entire array, while Qin Chen sat cross-legged, absorbing this imperial aura.

The imperial aura in the Emperor Crystal could refine a martial artist's body and will. If Qin Chen still had his cultivation from his previous life, he might not care, but in this life, it was of immense benefit to him.

A wisp of imperial aura fused into Qin Chen's bloodline.

Zizizi!

The thunderous bloodline within Qin Chen began to unleash astonishing power, with lightning filling the sky, like electric serpents weaving across his body.

At the same time, that imperial aura was also integrated into every meridian of Qin Chen's body.

Buzz!

Qin Chen's sea of consciousness surged, as if forming an ocean.

The terrifying imperial aura ultimately formed a sphere in Qin Chen's mind, containing incredible destructive power, as if it could destroy the heavens and the earth upon exploding.

"The Emperor Crystal is indeed powerful. Martial King, Martial King, the king among martial artists; only by reaching the ultimate realm of martial will can one step into the Martial King realm. This is a brand new realm."

"Although this Emperor Crystal cannot allow me to step into the king realm, it can grant me the aura of a king."

In terms of comprehension of martial will, Liu Tai and the others combined were not even a fraction of Qin Chen, yet they were Martial Kings, possessing the true essence of kings, with strength that reached the heavens, while Qin Chen was merely a Martial Venerable.

Now, using this Martial Intent Grand Array, Qin Chen could store a portion of martial will within himself and utilize the emperor's aura from the Emperor Crystal to unleash attacks at the Martial King level.

In other words, this Martial Intent Grand Array allowed Qin Chen, at the Martial Venerable realm, to possess the means to challenge Martial Kings.

This was also why Qin Chen set up the Martial Intent Grand Array, not merely to assist Liu Xuanrui and the others in breaking through, but also to ensure he had some means of self-preservation before the strong Martial Kings.

"The Emperor Crystal can only be activated once, and then it will be completely exhausted. It depends on how much imperial aura I can absorb before I stop within the Martial Intent Grand Array."

Qin Chen tightly closed his eyes, frantically refining the imperial aura within the array.

Time passed.

It was uncertain how long had gone by.

Boom!

Suddenly, an astonishing aura spread throughout the hall. Liu Xuanrui was enveloped in a soaring rainbow light, the radiance bursting forth, and a terrifying oppressive aura representing the emperor's presence instantly spread, descending upon everyone present.

That aura was extremely terrifying, like a massive mountain, rendering people immobile.

"This is true essence pressure; His Majesty has indeed broken through to the seventh stage Martial King?"

The crowd was shaken, each one inexplicably horrified.

Amidst the astonishment of the crowd, a series of explosive booms rang out again, with Zhuo Qingfeng, Nangong Li, and Yelü Hongtao simultaneously releasing astonishing kingly auras.

"They have broken through; Zhuo Pavilion Master and the others have also broken through."

"Four people breaking through to Martial King at the same time; this..."

"The Martial Intent Grand Array is indeed frightening."

Liu Tai and Fu Xingcheng widened their eyes, astonished at the scene before them.

Countless true qi wildly gathered and then converged within Liu Xuanrui and the others, emanating an unprecedented domineering aura.

The simultaneous breakthrough of four half-step Martial Kings was an astonishing sight.

At this moment, the four of them radiated different martial intent auras.

Liu Xuanrui exuded majesty, representing the authority of an emperor, his words carrying weight to decide the world, controlling the lives and deaths of millions, an indescribable might.
