I Am Supreme

chapter-101
Yun Yang felt the area between his eyebrows throb with pain before a violent itch replaced it as a queer sensation seemed to erupt from between his brows.
Countless flows of energy, clear as a spring, seemed to gush in from the same spot, spreading themselves towards his limbs and body; his bones began to feel much lighter.
Dark-stained blood oozed out from the pores all over his body.
"The awakening of the third-eye chakra!"
Although Yun Yang had anticipated the benefits from the breakthrough of the Endless Divine Art, he was still struck with a sense of numbing excitement when he felt the awakening of the third-eye chakra.Eight innately awakened chakras!
This was a rare gift, one to be envied in the entire Tianxuan Continent!
However, thinking of sixth brother Supreme Thunder who had been deemed as a failure and chased out despite having eight awakened chakras, Yun Yang spat, "Bound of Universe! Are you so mighty to judge someone so?"
Following the gush of vital force into his meridians and dantian, the force of life simmered for a bit before it flowed out once more and charged through the barrier of mystical Qi’s third peak without difficulty into the fourth peak. It remained vigorous and vivacious in his meridians as it flowed in strong, continuous currents.
Yun Yang kept what he could of the sensations he felt, stopping the development of his cultivation even if it meant wasting this energy away.
This was because he could clearly felt the mystical Qi charging through the fourth heaven and was not stopping; it was growing stronger instead! If he did not stop it, it wouldn’t take much effort to break through to the fifth peak with the help of this force.
It was a done deal.However, Yun Yang did not want to break through to the fifth peak so quickly.
It was a heaven’s difference between each peak.
This explained the arduousness in improving one’s cultivation but more importantly, it also hinted at the importance of one’s cultivation foundation.
He had just arrived in the new world of the fourth peak; he had not even enjoyed the scenery outside of the peak. If he had charged through to the fifth peak now, even if his ability could increase tenfold, his journey of cultivation would forever be dented with the fact that he had never experienced the fourth peak.
It was one thing to step into the realm of the fourth peak, it was also important to go through the journey in fourth heaven!
If he did not experience it, it would only do him harm and never benefit him in his future path.
Although Yun Yang desperately needed to increase his ability, he would not take his future lightly.
Suppressing the stampede of his inner force, Yun Yang turned his attention to the second lotus leaf and watched it intensely, wondering if this piece of leaf would fall and turn into some sort of treasured gem like the Divine Edge. However, the leaf did not budge even when his eyes grew sore from the unwavering stare.
Emmie waved its tendrils about, enveloping Yun Yang with them as it continued to behave coyly; it was obvious that Emmie was overjoyed as well!
It seemed that it was elated beyond words and the happiness was escalating.
The clingy behavior made Yun Yang happy as well, his heart was at ease and pleased.
However, he still felt a frightening premonition.The Endless Divine Art and the Lotus of Endless Fate were nothing to be ignored; its first level-up killed ten people while this second one was achieved through the murder of approximately a hundred people.
He had killed a hundred and twenty people, give or take a few heads, in this duration of time, especially tonight, where he had killed close to forty people at one go.
It was at this time too that the Lotus of Endless Fate leveled up while Endless Divine Art advanced to the beginning of the second level!
Ten, a hundred...
Would that mean that the next level up would require a thousand headcounts?
Would the fourth level then need ten thousand? A hundred thousand for the fifth level? Sixth level… Would he be required to kill billions of people for the Lotus of Endless Fate to complete its growth and achieve perfection?
"But does this world even have so many sinners!" Yun Yang looked at Emmie a little helplessly. "Little one, do you really need so much air of injustice? I’ve already felt that there isn’t much hope now!"
Emmie continued to cling onto Yun Yang and behave like a petulant child.
"It’d be difficult to have a complete advancement then. There isn’t much hope to sound optimistic, it is in fact, hopeless…" Yun Yang sighed.
Feeling the flooding mystical Qi in his body that was still trailing everywhere, Yun Yang had a strange feeling that he could do anything and manipulate anyone.
The benefits of the Endless Divine Art’s level up did not only stop at Yun Yang’s increase in rank. With the level up of the art, it also sped up the improvement of Fiery Charm, Mystique Wind Conjuration, and Fog of Cloud Conjuration. If Yun Yang had not suppressed the advancement of his mystical Qi, it would probably have already charged through the fifth peak and went into the sixth peak.
By then, Mystique Wind Conjuration and other cultivation skills would also soar to no lesser than the fifth stage.
It sounded like a reachable dream but Yun Yang gave up on it curtly after thinking about it.
"Towers of a hundred thousand feet are built from a flatland, giant trees touching the sky first need to take root!"
"The foundation is the most important of all."
…
Saber Truth: Destiny Blade was also ready to advance following the second breakthrough of Endless Divine Art but to Yun Yang, he could only watch and let it go.
He had not entirely grasped Destiny’s First Form even until now.
This form was intricate and deep. Although Yun Yang was delighted over it, the more he cultivated, the more he felt it was endless and unpredictable. At least, to Yun Yang now, he was still far from total enlightenment…
Although the second form was there within his reach, he could only temporarily keep it away.
"The most important matter at hand now is still traitors!" Yun Yang thought in his heart. Just as he was about to get up from the ground, he gave a stunned look at his surroundings.
White fur floated all about; looking around, there seemed to be several piles of it around him.
"What’s going on?" Yun Yang almost suspected that he had grown fur but turning to look, he saw four naked pink critters curling up to sleep soundly in the fur piles.
He was surprised but understood immediately.
It looked like he was not the only recipient of the benefits coming from Emmie’s level up and the breakthrough of the Endless Divine Art. These fellows that were lazing around him had gotten much of the benefits too! They had actually shed fur in unison and it did not seem like they had shed only once judging by the piles of fur that stood around.
Yun Yang could not help but anticipate the culminations of recent events. The first one to spring up with a meow was the eldest of the Eclipse Panthers that was sent out for a mission, Big Whitey.
It must be mentioned here that Yun Yang had given all four Eclipse Panthers and the Lightning Cat names and those names were… unique.
Since the one sent out was called Big Whitey, the rest were Whitey Two, Whitey Three, Whitey Four respectively and the last Lightning Cat was naturally Whitey Five…
Great Young Master Yun’s naming sense was unique and unexpected. Thinking of it, his naming standard was rather high.
Big Whitey was sleeping soundly; it opened its bleary eyes and looked at its body, licking it with a tilted head. It’s slightly dazed state almost making Yun Yang laugh.
The little critter sprung up and shook itself, the fur on its body coming off and revealing its pink skin. It looked utterly ugly like it was cooked in a wok, not a single strand of fur remained!
"Meow…" Big Whitey looked at its naked body with much sadness, calling out again with its head raised to look at Yun Yang. Its eyes were actually moist.
The meow basically meant, "Woo woo… so ugly…"
"Stupid, will your fur continue to grow in a few days’ time?" Yun Yang felt exasperated. "What level are you in now?"
Big Whitey licked its body continuously, occupied with the task.
Suddenly, a white fog came from its body.
After some time when the fog dissipated, Yun Yang realized with a start that Big Whitey’s fur had grown again, smoother and shinier than it used to be!
Big Whitey swagged and stood up, shaking its body proudly. It snorted twice before it sashayed in elegance and sprung out of the window with a swoosh.
Before it left, it actually rolled its eyes at Yun Yang in despair.
Yun Yang scratched his head. "Could this fellow have gotten to the sixth level just like this?" Yun Yang was rather perplexed with the little fellow’s development.
How much did he advance?
Besides, how could its size not change even after leveling up?
It was still so tiny and adorable; this did not seem logical at all!
A while later, Whitey Two, Whitey Three, and Whitey Four had all woken up. All of them went through a similar process as Big Whitey but after a moment, they were once again three rolling balls of happy white fluff on the floor.
It could be seen clearly that the mental state and aura of these Eclipse Panthers were significantly different that they had been!
Obviously, these little critters had gotten some great nourishment. How great it was though… Yun Yang was unable to see it with his eyes currently.
The only thing he was certain about was that their sizes did not increase; this was not a bad thing at all!
Right now, there was only the Lightning Cat, Whitey Five, that was still lying there motionlessly.
Although Whitey Five had been playing with Whitey Two, Whitey Three, and Whitey Four all this while, it was ultimately still a Lightning Cat. Its birth had determined that its state would differ greatly in comparison to the other Whiteys.
Yun Yang could see that new fur was growing out of the Lightning Cat endlessly. It shed swiftly and grew its hair again.
All three Eclipse Panthers watched the Lightning Cat happily but did not go to disturb it, it was as if they were clearer about the Lightning Cat, Whitey Five’s, current situation more than Yun Yang was.
Finally, after the eighth shedding of fur, the Lightning Cat finally stood up. White fur covered its entire body, smooth and silky, but its size was five to six rounds larger than it used to be.
Looking at it now, this cat weighed at least a dozen catties.
Perhaps it could be considered a big cat already, although it still exuded a childish aura!
"Meow~" The Lightning Cat mewled lazily.
Yun Yang could finally hear the difference. The Eclipse Panthers’ were "meow!" while the Lightning Cat’s was "meow~"; their difference was the weak vibrato at the end.
However, this Lightning Cat’s size was at least four to five times larger than the Eclipse Panthers!
When they got together, it looked more like a big cat leading three newborn kittens.
Yun Yang’s eyes almost bulged out of their sockets.
The cat got bigger but the panthers were still so tiny.
Yun Yang felt that he could totally find someone to b*llshit and make a bet, "My cat at home is four to five times bigger than a panther, do you believe it?"
"No? Shall we place a wager then?"
