Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank

Perhaps it was because of the vitality Li Xiang had shown. The ghost roared and charged forward to kill like a bolt of lightning.

It thrust its spear forward without any hesitation.

The strike was ruthless and deadly.

Li Xiang recognized the technique in a single thrust. The ghost was experienced in combat and must have lived in battle for a long time. It could even be considered one of the elite among malicious ghosts.

"What a deadly ghost! The strength of this attack is extremely close to the legendary realm!"

Li Xiang could tell that the ghost was not weak in the slightest.

"If a ghost already has the strength close to the legendary realm, what about all the other monsters here? Won't they be even stronger?" Li Xiang thought as he raised his hand to meet the spear.

The ghost was thrown back after a loud explosion. Yet, Li Xiang had a confused expression on his face.

"Something's wrong. I should be strong enough to kill it with that strike, but it's still alive? It seems like my strength has left my body, and the only thing that's left here is my will. It's a divine sense. The only things I can use are the power of my divine soul, mental power, and willpower."

Li Xiang was slightly stunned. He had not noticed that before the fight, but once he countered the ghost's attack, he immediately noticed that something was different.

He was not able to control everything inside the mysterious space. Instead of becoming stronger, he became weaker after transforming into the Dominator.

The only thing inside the space was his divine soul, which had rendered him weaker than a legendary realm. Not only that, but he was relying on his mental power and spiritual will.

If he were to lose a fight inside the tower, he would die.

"Ke ke ke..." The ghost suddenly laughed. It then disappeared and instantly reappeared next to Li Xiang to attack the human.

It was like a powerhouse that had a lot of combat experience and techniques. The spear was thrust so fast that it left an afterimage.

"Die!"

With a loud roar, Li Xiang condensed a spear in his hands. Then he swung the weapon around to deflect all the ghost's attacks.

The ghost kept making sneak attacks as it could move extremely fast. It was something hard to defend or predict. As afterimages began to appear because of its speed, Li Xiang felt as if he was facing a warrior that had survived countless near-death fights. Its attack timings were almost perfect.

However, Li Xiang wasn't a weakling either.

He was a person who became who he was by standing on top of a mountain of bodies. Just the Holy Dragon Spear in his hands had brought him close to a godly level. No matter how swift the ghost's attack was, he could guard against it before it could reach his body.

As the two spears clashed again and again, pressure and sparks filled the space.

The fight lasted for more than 15 minutes.

It was only after that long that Li Xiang could spot the ghost's opening. The spear was thrust forward as if it were a dragon. The sudden, swift attack pierced through the ghost's body.

A destructive will was sent into the ghost through the spear.

A loud boom then echoed throughout the space.

The ghost burst into pieces under the destructive will.

Although Li Xiang only existed in the space as a divine soul, a consciousness projection, Martial Arts True Intent was still formed through one's will. It was something that could bypass the restriction of not having an actual body, and Li Xiang could use it without any problem.

It meant that the Martial Arts True Intent was way stronger in the tower. It could tear a spirit apart and destroy its will. Whether they were malicious ghosts or spirits, the attack would be able to destroy them easily. That was the scary part of the Martial Arts True Intent. Once mastered, it would forever be etched on the person's soul.

"I finally killed it."

Li Xiang could feel that the ghost was completely destroyed.

At the spot where the ghost had died, a drop of transparent liquid suddenly appeared out of nowhere. It quickly turned into a ray of light and was shot between Li Xiang's brows.

"Sea of consciousness!"

His mind quickly followed the liquid into the sea of consciousness.

He could see a golden fog of will spiraling inside the sea of consciousness. It was dense and sticky. The gray region surrounding the area was full of mystery. It was as if the region was exuding a terrifying aura, like some sort of danger was lurking inside.

At the same time, Li Xiang could learn certain information about himself.

When his illusion-like divinity could enter the sea of consciousness, it would be able to condense into a true divinity. As a result, his life expectancy would skyrocket. As for how much he would grow, it all depended on the quality of his divinity.

Inside the core of the sea of consciousness, a plate made out of jade appeared in the golden fog. It kept moving, floating up and down. It was hard to tell what it was, but he could make out that it was old.

It was the wheel of life. Transcendents who could not become gods would possess such wheels, and it was something that those who had yet to become transcendent would not be able to create.

As it was a white wheel of life, it meant that it contained around 800 years' worth of life in it.

There were more than 20 cracks on the wheel, and they were way beyond repair. The cracks were a reflection of how long the wheel had been sitting inside the fog and also a sign of its fate.

Once a person could enter their sea of consciousness, they would be able to witness their life slowly wither away and realize that they were one step closer to dying.

The wheel of life slowly turned. A complete turn represented a year. The cracks made it look like it was cut by the blade of time.

Suddenly, the liquid reappeared inside the sea of consciousness.

It started to absorb the golden fog.

The fog was sucked into the liquid in a stream. Then, the drop of water started to change so fast that it could be tracked by Li Xiang's eyes.

When the liquid had fully turned gold, it fell.

"That's the mental power being liquefied! By liquifying the fog, it further purified the mental power. Compared to its fog form, the liquid form is ten times purer! Therefore, the power that I could summon through this will be even greater!"

Li Xiang was excited as he felt the changes in the sea of consciousness.

There were a lot of people who could condense their mental powers in a short amount of time, but there were only a handful who could also enter their sea of consciousnesses. Being able to turn the mental power inside the sea of consciousness from fog to liquid was a complete evolution.

The mental power of Li Xiang's sea of consciousness had already reached a full state before that. The appearance of the liquid was a chance for his entire sea of consciousness to evolve. It could help his mental power to liquefy completely.

The first drop was the beginning, not the end.

The golden fog continued to swarm toward the gold liquid. The drop of water continued to grow bigger. It didn't take long for it to separate another drop from itself.

The two drops started to absorb the fog at the same time, and they split into four.

At the appearance of the first drop, the liquefying process of mental power started a chain reaction. The fog-like mental powers were already beginning to turn into liquids. However, compared to turning into the fog, it would take a long time for the mental power to liquefy completely. It wasn't something that could be completed in an instant.
