--- Chapter 219 ---
As Chu Ming and his teammates escorted Baek Ain toward the Fire Roc Saint's Tomb, he also learned more about the Heaven Genesis World from them.
Yes, Alicia did transfer the necessary knowledge into Baek Ain's head, but she didn't give him knowledge about the recent events and what actually happened to the Fire Emperor.
Apparently, the Fire Emperor's name became famous after his rise one thousand years ago. He appeared out of nowhere and dominated the Sixth Heaven.
After a few hundred years, he became a saint with his strange Genesis Qi Cultivation Art and stood high as the guardian of humanity against the tyrannical Saint Race.
The more Baek Ain heard about it, the more fascinated he became.
He also becomes excited to see what kind of legacy the Fire Emperor has for him-! No, he should have called him the Fire Roc Saint here.
Her name is Jing Nuyan, if Baek Ain wasn't wrong.
Jing Nuyan is a sensory-type fighter. Her cultivation technique revolved around sound and wind movement, which allowed her to detect the incoming Genesis Beast Horde.
Chu Ming frowned at her words.
He glanced at Baek Ain and worriedly explained, "Your Highness, Copper-headed Bison are Rank 5 Genesis Beasts. Although they aren't a problem for my team, we should make a long detour because we can't protect you while we fight."
Chu Ming is not looking down on Baek Ain. But they really couldn't protect him while fighting hundreds of Genesis Beasts.
Baek Ain curved his lips into a smile, 'Well, It's been a while since I became a heavy burden for others.'
He remembered the good old days when Lan Rou had to drag him to the training ground. At the time, he just transmigrated into the Alternative Battle Through the Heaven World.
'Alicia.'
[Yes, Host?]
Baek Ain closed his eyes and asked, 'Even though Dou Qi is weaker, my martial technique and skills are working fine, right?'
[Yup. However, I don't guarantee those martial techniques are working 100% like the way you used them in Alternative Battle Through the Heaven Word]
[Let's not count the cruel disparity between Dou Qi Continent and Heaven Genesis World. The difference between Dou Qi and Genesis Qi alone is too big]
[Weak martial technique might not pass through]
'That's more than enough.' Baek Ain opened his eyes, revealing a pair of hazel-gold eyes crackling with white lightning.
"Your Highness?" Chu Ming thought he had offended Baek Ain and paled a little.
Baek Ain ignored Chu Ming and stretched his body extensively. Like, he really warmed up for the incoming fight.
Dum! Dum! DUM! ROOARR~!
The sound of heavy steps entered everyone's ears.
"Just focus on your own thing. I want to test myself for a bit." Baek Ain suddenly said.
"Don't worry, I know how to retreat when things are too dangerous."
"This..." Chu Ming and his teammates were speechless.
However, they couldn't do anything about Baek Ain's stubborn decision and followed his words.
Chu Ming gritted his teeth helplessly and ordered his teammates to enter a formation, which acts as a shield for Baek Ain. They cannot afford to get Baek Ain injured in the Heavenly Fire Prison Secret Realm.
If Baek Ain died, they would also get buried in this realm.
To their surprise, Baek Ain didn't charge at the Copper-headed Bisons recklessly.
He's walking with his hazel-gold eyes focused on the horde like a hunter who patiently stalks his prey. A long white spear appeared on his left hand and released a faint hum of electricity.
[Lightning Calamity Divine Art - First Layer: Lightning Armor]
'White Lightning?' Chu Ming's face flashed with surprise. "What Genesis Qi Cultivation Art did he cultivate actually?"
"Incoming!" Jing Nuyan's shout awakened everyone from their stupor.
Copper-headed Bison are large Genesis Beasts.
They are over four meters tall and six or seven meters long with bulging bodies, green furs, strong limbs, and copper-colored curved horns, which is how they got their name.
Baek Ain's heart throbbed in excitement. Even from afar, he could feel that Copper-headed Bison were above his base strength.
[Myriad Behemoth Sage Physique]
[Ashen God's Eyes]
Baek Ain felt the thunderous enhancement weakened in the Heaven Genesis World and only increased his physical strength by 10%.
"Haha." He chuckled helplessly and kicked the ground.
However, he also discovered that the lightning in his body was ten times heavier and difficult to control. Heavy lightning might sound weird, but that's how Baek Ain felt in this situation.
[Spatial Jump!]
Baek Ain tried to use his fundamental skill and was surprised that the teleportation range didn't even reach thirty meters.
It feels like chains attached to his body.
"What the..."
[It's Realm Suppression, Host]
[Since you're from the lower plane, you will awfully weakened until you adapted to the Heaven Genesis World's Atmosphere]
"Tell me that earlier, Alicia!"
He stumbled awkwardly in the air and was about to get hit by Copper-headed Bison's horns.
"YOUR HIGHNESS!" Chu Ming, Jing Nuyan, and others panicked.
[Ultra Instinct]
Baek Ain's body moved on its own unnaturally, and his left hand swatted the white spear to stab the Copper-headed Bison's eyes, making the Genesis Beast cry in pain.
"This, this is..." Chu Ming couldn't believe his eyes.
He and others are sure that Baek Ain couldn't dodge that attack. The gap between Baek Ain and the Copper-headed Bison's horns is less than a hair.
Nevertheless, Baek Ain dodged with inhuman reaction speed and flung an immaculate counterattack!
Chu Ming has witnessed many fighters and survived countless life-and-death situations. Yet he had never seen someone fight like they were courting death.
Baek Ain's muscles flexed as he imbued Blade and Spear Intent into his white spear. He dragged the spear out and split the Copper-headed Bison's head into two.
Yes, his Martial Intent hasn't changed at all.
It doesn't get weakened like his Lightning Calamity Divine Art.
It is good news.
[Ding! You have killed Rank 5 Genesis Beast]
[Soul Protection(Unknown) triggered]
[You have clashed with Copper-headed Bison's Soul and emerged victorious]
[Ding! Your soul has become slightly stronger]
[You have obtained aPassive Skill: Copper Force(F)]
[Ten Rings of Divine Blood Diagram has absorbed Genesis Beast's Blood and grown slightly stronger]
[Host has received +1 Ancient Mammoths Strength]
[Physical Force: 2,001 Ancient Mammoths' Strength]
Baek Ain stood on the Genesis Beast's corpse and frowned because he didn't feel much stronger. In fact, his physical strength is weakened by 90% here.
The status panel described Baek Ain as possessing 2,001 Ancient Mammoths' strength, but he could only use 10% of it.
That's like 200 Ancient Mammoths or roughly 2,000 tons of physical force.
Baek Ain breathed in, "Alicia, shut the notifications. I'm going to focus on hunting these Genesis Beasts."
[Understood!] Alicia responded with an excited tone.
It's been a while since her Host could go all out!
Baek Ain glanced to the right and saw hundreds of Copper-headed Bison charging at me. "Come on, amuse me!" He roared with a grin.
After that, Baek Ain exploded with extreme speed and created several afterimages. His white spear danced beautifully, leaving an illusion of a mighty White Tiger pouncing at a herd of Bison.
Chu Ming was amazed by what he saw. "W-White Tiger..."
"Was Your Highness Ling Feng part of the Divine Tiger Clan? But I don't remember Divine Tiger Clan using Lightning Qi Cultivation Art as they are more known for their Metal Qi Cultivation Art."
"Ah." Then, Chu Ming realized his negligence.
"What are you guys waiting for? Charge and attack the herd!" He shouted at his teammates.
Chu Ming and his teammates moved, helping Baek Ain. Even though Baek Ain is strong, his energy consumption is massive. That's why he didn't use any fancy technique and only the first layer of Lightning Calamity Divine Art.
All this time, Baek Ain only used his powerful physique. Yes, the one thing he could still be proud of in the Heaven Genesis World.
After thirty minutes, they completely wiped the herd.
Chu Ming and others sighed in relief, looking at the scholarly-clothed man ahead.
They shivered at the sight of his blood-soaked hair and face.
There is no way this man is a Divine Dwelling Expert.
He's a monster!
Unknown to them, Baek Ain is severely limited in strength and options by the Heaven Genesis World's natural suppression.
He couldn't unleash his full strength.
Baek Ain's breathing was rough, and his bloody hands trembled in exhaustion and thrill.
"Yes, this is the feeling." Baek Ain couldn't help but grin.
"The feeling of pressure, boiling blood, and imminent breakthrough."
"Haha, Dou God? Fuck them, this is the key to become a True God!"
