Chapter 937: Chapter 189: Achieving Imperial Fame, Divine King’s Invitation (+4K Guaranteed Extra 13)_4

Feng Boping withdrew his gaze from the horizon and said gravely to Li Hao.

Li Hao was stunned, a Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapon of seven tribulations?

“So, does that mean he fed at least 140 pieces of Heaven and Earth Treasures to the Emperor Weapon?”

Li Hao asked in astonishment.

Feng Boping couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Far more than that. A mere 140 treasures might be manageable for an ordinary Supreme Saint, but as for him, the feeding of this Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapon is exponential. When you first start, about twenty pieces are enough for one tribulation. If you want it to undergo another, then forty pieces are required, followed by eighty pieces!”

“This means that to achieve a seven-tribulation Emperor Weapon, it must have absorbed at least a thousand pieces of Heaven and Earth Treasures.”

Li Hao was somewhat stupefied. Heaven and Earth Treasures were unimaginably precious—three to five pieces from a Holy Land would be a significant expenditure—but a thousand pieces? What kind of concept was that?

Even if All Heavens Sacred Land were emptied, it might not be enough!

Yet Source Ancestor had consumed such an incredible amount of treasures to forge a seven-tribulation Emperor Weapon!

“Just at two tribulations or three, it can make a Three Calamities Saint avoid confrontation. So at seven tribulations, wouldn’t it be effortless to kill a Supreme Saint?”

Li Hao was deeply shaken and couldn’t help but ask.

Feng Boping nodded and said, “Why else would Source Ancestor always sit at the center of such gatherings?”

Li Hao was rendered speechless.

“Source Ancestor may not be the most monstrously talented, but he certainly has the deepest foundations. After all, he has lived the longest, accumulated the most—whether it’s incense fire or Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapons!”

Feng Boping said, using his words as advice to warn Li Hao not to provoke Source Ancestor.

Even though Li Hao had already reached a formidable level, if Source Ancestor became jealous, disaster would likely strike Li Hao.

Fortunately, Feng Boping knew that Source Ancestor yearned for the Immortal Divine Road, and with Li Hao as the key to that Ancient Hall, the man wouldn’t readily act against him.

When the Ancient Hall opened and the Immortal Divine Road was cleared, if Source Ancestor became an immortal divine being, jealousy would no longer be relevant. No matter how monstrous Li Hao was, the distance between him and immortality was insurmountable.

Hearing Feng Boping’s words, Li Hao felt a heaviness in his heart. Cultivating up to this point, his power far exceeded that of any divine weapon. But in the mortal world, he had experienced firsthand the augmentation divine weapons could bring—like the Dragon Soar Sword, which had enabled him to slice through monsters as if they were vegetables. Without it back then, relying solely on his fists and feet, he would’ve suffered greatly.

“Previously, when the Emperor Weapon was restored, it was undergoing its forming tribulation. That was its first tribulation. Do you still have additional Heaven and Earth Treasures to let it reach the second tribulation? If it manages that, this sword alone will be able to slaughter a Three Calamities Saint!”

Feng Boping asked Li Hao.

Li Hao had previously gathered 54 pieces of Heaven and Earth Treasures, thinking it was a considerable amount. Now he realized it was woefully insufficient.

After absorbing 50 pieces, he was left with only seven to eight remaining treasures from his previous accumulations.

“Did you dig up the Bodhi Tree from the Buddhist sect? That thing is basically a Heaven and Earth Treasure and has already cultivated into the Entering Saint stage. Nourished by the Green Lamp Buddha for years, one can be worth ten standard treasures.”

Feng Boping asked, revealing his familiarity with the virtues of the Buddhist sect.

Upon hearing this, Li Hao understood that Feng Boping must have coveted the tree himself at some point but never managed to steal it. He thought of Xiyan absorbing the Bodhi Tree and currently being in slumber, shook his head, and said, “I uprooted it, but repurposed it for something else.”

Feng Boping, upon hearing this, showed a trace of regret but didn’t probe further about its use.

At that moment, Li Hao thought of Void Ancestor’s Thunder Light Emperor Weapon, which had a core that was a particular dagger.

“If an Emperor Weapon is dismantled, can it be used for feeding?”

Li Hao asked curiously.

Feng Boping, hearing this, immediately thought of Void Ancestor’s famed Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger and laughed, saying, “I almost forgot. Void Ancestor’s Emperor Weapon is also in your possession. That’s a one-tribulation Emperor Weapon, like Green Lamp Buddha’s Green Lamp. Speaking of which, you could dismantle the Green Lamp too. However, dismantled Emperor Weapons used for feeding would only yield half the effect.”

Li Hao felt a bit regretful upon hearing this. But Void Ancestor’s weapon served him no real purpose. When it came to truly killing enemies, a single useful weapon was enough.

“Elder Feng, do you lack a weapon?”

Li Hao considered for a moment and thought it a waste to dismantle the Emperor Weapon. Since its effectiveness was halved, he might as well gift it to Elder Feng for self-defense.

Feng Boping immediately understood Li Hao’s intent and smiled while shaking his head, saying, “I already have an Emperor Weapon killing implement. Though it doesn’t match the Extinguishing Tribulation Divine Dagger, it suits me well.”

While the two were conversing, thunder roared above them. Gong Ming was battling against a heavenly tribulation within thick clouds, unleashing a formidable power. Awe-inspiring sword light tore through the heavens and earth, sweeping across tens of thousands of miles.

The sight shook their hearts.

Before long, Gong Ming’s tribulation ended, and he returned to the small courtyard.

Li Hao immediately sensed that Gong Ming’s power had grown remarkably more robust. He picked up the weapon and gently sliced his hand, and it effortlessly cut through his skin.

Void Ancestor’s weapon was also at the one-tribulation level, but Li Hao felt it didn’t seem as sharp as Gong Ming’s weapon.

“You could feed Void Ancestor’s weapon to Gong Ming’s. If you add the Green Lamp, it can instantly reach the second tribulation. At that point, this weapon alone would be enough to threaten a Three Calamities Saint—or even slay one outright!”

Feng Boping said to Li Hao.

Li Hao replied, “Green Lamp Buddha burned the Green Lamp completely. That Emperor Weapon is destroyed—probably to prevent me from benefiting from it.”

“That bald monk is truly ruthless.”

Feng Boping muttered angrily upon hearing this.

Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapons were treasures nurtured over countless ages. For every one destroyed, there would be one fewer for eternity. Even the most adept human race weapon saints were incapable of forging Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapons.

Other divine weapons couldn’t absorb Heaven and Earth Treasures for transformation. They simply couldn’t handle the overwhelming power.

Li Hao took out Void Ancestor’s Emperor Weapon. Lightning flickered across the surface of the short dagger, splitting the void.

Li Hao hesitated momentarily but felt the fighting spirit and joy coming from Gong Ming’s spiritual sense. After some thought, he decided to feed the weapon to Gong Ming’s. If it reached the second tribulation, Gong Ming’s weapon could easily overpower other Tao Tribulation Emperor Weapons. Should he encounter someone like Green Lamp Buddha wielding an ancient Emperor Weapon, it would be effortless to defeat them.
