Chapter 451 The Rule And Martial Arts Cultivation (Part Two)

"You have finally come."

A hoarse and gruffly voice reached Darren's ears. He looked up and found that the sound emanatedfrom a transparent ripple that floated high up in the air. The ripple danced in the air and graduallyformed into the shape of an ape.

The ape seemed quite aged with the appearance resembling the Giant Ape. The only difference wasthat this ape was much smaller in size and was almost as tall as a human.

"Sir!" Although the ape was only a shadow, Darren cupped his hands and bowed to him modestly."I am just a shadow created from a rule power. The purpose of my dwelling here is to teach you theknowledge about the rule cultivators. But you ought to know that my cultivation method is differentfrom you human beings. Mine is a lot like what you humans call it black magic. Because of that, Icannot teach you powerful fighting skills directly. Instead, I can only offer you suggestions when youare at a loss for what to do next. The final decision is still yours to make,” the ape stated with anauthoritative voice.

"I understand!" Darren answered and nodded his head in agreement.

"Now, I will explain to you the basic principle of becoming a rule cultivator. The road to being a rulecultivator is nothing different from all the other cultivation methods in the world. The powerful skillsthat rule cultivators possessed originated from the forces of the heaven and earth and the UniverseRule, of course. Powerful as they are, they still cannot match up to the genuinely prominent rulecultivators in strength. A compelling one can easily comprehend the true rules through the UniverseRule.

For instance, human rule cultivators can perform such means of attacks like Wind Blade and WindSpear with the help of the Wind Rule. Those means all belong to the basic standard of utilization.The compelling rule cultivators can master and control the forces of heaven and earth andcomprehend the true rules progressively.

As for comprehending the true rules, there are also apparent differences in strengths andweaknesses in it. By embracing the true rules, one can control the rule and make himself immortal.”After the ape’s long and detailed narration, Darren finally had a little understanding of rulecultivation.

"Then, sir, how can I comprehend the true rule?" Darren inquired as he grew curious. He was eagerto learn more as he was desperate to win his battles against the Red Inferno Sect.

"You are only at the starting point. So don't try to bother yourself about comprehending the truerule so early. Let me give you a brief introduction so you will not be in the dark about it.

I will take the Wind Rule as an example, as well. The power of the true rule can be divided into threelevels: the superior level, the medium level, and the inferior level. If one could acquire Speed TrueRule by comprehending the Wind Rule, then even if he is in the inferior level, his speed can still beas fast as a swishing wind. For example, you know that it is elementary for a six-star grand warrior tokill a one-star grand warrior. But what if the one-star grand warrior has comprehended the SpeedTrue Rule? The result is: there is no way the six-star grand warrior could lay hands on him as he hadlong gone away. Only the martial arts grand warriors, at least at the seven-star level, can catch up tohim and kill him.

On the other hand, the true rules that were comprehended from the same rule could also bedifferent. One can understand the Speed True Rule while others contain Attack True Rule. Forexample, the Storm Whirl and the Limit Penetration are the Attack True Rule that belongs to theWind Rule, and those are very formidable. It depends mainly on how you would like to comprehendit. If you understood the Speed True Rule, you could use it to dodge from attacks or harass yourenemy's concentration, or if you grasped the Attack True Rule, then you would put your energy onattacking your enemy."

After hearing the ape's simple introduction about rule cultivators, Darren started to yearn for theway of becoming a full-fledged rule cultivator.

By now, he had known that even a one-star grand warrior could simply escape from the hunt of asix-star grand warrior if he had comprehended Speed True Rule. It went without saying that thenews the ape transferred to Darren was really tempting.

He could not help wondering about how potent one would become if he thoroughlycomprehended the Attack True Rule.

"True rules are indeed amazing things to comprehend. But, sir, what would become of a seven-starmartial arts grand warrior if he comprehended a true rule?” Darren asked earnestly as the thoughtpopped in his head.

The ape replied with his head shaking in doubt. "It is impossible," he pointed out.

"Why is that so?" Darren was puzzled. His brows were pulled in a tightly creased furrow.

"What you are yearning for is far beyond your ability at the moment. At the same time, it iscomplicated to explain as well. Let me ask you a question first! You are holding both blade andsword intents in you. That means you are cultivating the conflicting martial arts skills, am I right?"the ape questioned.

"Yes, it is true that I am cultivating the conflicting martial arts skills.” Although still confused, Darrenanswered the ape's question obediently.

"Do you know what the cruelest Conflicting Cultivation is?" The ape continued to ask Darren strangequestions.

“The cruelest Conflicting Cultivation?

Is it Ice and Flame Cultivation? Or is it Blade and Sword Cultivation? Or the Feminine and MasculineCultivation?"

Darren's mind swiftly went over all the skills he had known that were conflicting with each other.After a while, he seemed to have realized the correct answer to the question. He knew all this timethat all the conflicting martial arts skills were nothing but martial arts cultivation. What about therule cultivation?

"Do you mean that cultivating the martial arts and rules at the same time is the cruelest ConflictingCultivation?” Darren blurted out. The thought was so abominable that he himself was evenastonished by his answer.
