King of Creation

Chapter 1879: Chapter 1864: The Coronation Ceremony

Cultivating geomagnetic primal power is quite simple once you understand the method.

Especially since the illusory vein can change at will to adapt to the unique methods of the demon beasts for cultivating geomagnetic primal power, this first step is still very easy.

However, geomagnetic primal power is a very special force. Apart from the Geomagnetic Spirit Pearl formed by this power, the Mirage Dragon Pearl cannot absorb even a trace of it.

Only when you set foot on the earth can you use the Silver-horned Rhinoceros King’s special secret technique to sense the geomagnetic primal power deep underground and directly absorb and refine it.

Moreover, when cultivating this geomagnetic primal power, the deeper you go underground and the closer you are to the geomagnetic field deep within, the better and faster the cultivation effects.

Under these circumstances, Ye Zhen emerges from the Mirage Dragon Pearl each day and spends half of his time diving deep underground to absorb and refine a large amount of geomagnetic primal power.

After all, when Ye Zhen deploys the geomagnetic field in the future, it will also be based on the geomagnetic primal power cultivated by himself.

During the cultivation process, Ye Zhen made a small discovery.

When he cultivates geomagnetic primal power underground, if he immerses his divine sense and transfigures into the Silver-horned Rhinoceros King, the speed of absorbing and refining the magnetic field increases exponentially.

This significantly enhances Ye Zhen’s accumulation speed of geomagnetic primal power, yet the process of comprehending the divine power of the geomagnetic field...

...is incredibly painful.

Compared to the process of comprehending the geomagnetic field, observing, imitating, and learning the cultivation method of geomagnetic primal power before was as simple as eating, drinking, and sleeping.

Understanding the geomagnetic field is as difficult as teaching a dog to read.

If it weren’t for the Secret Realm of the Essence Spirit Pearl, which can slow down the process of the Silver-horned Rhinoceros King deploying the geomagnetic field a thousandfold, Ye Zhen would almost see no chance of success.

Yet, even so, the suffering involved is indescribable.

Although Ye Zhen’s body experiences normal time flow, his divine sense experiences time that’s one thousand times slower.

In the Secret Realm of the Essence Spirit Pearl, half a day pondering the geomagnetic field translates to a year and a half of time for the divine sense inside.

Yet Ye Zhen himself only experiences half a day passing.

This huge temporal discrepancy torments Ye Zhen to the point of feeling like vomiting blood.

Luckily, Ye Zhen never stays in the Essence Spirit Pearl for more than half a day, which equates to a year and a half.

If Ye Zhen spent several months or even half a year inside, the hundreds-of-years time difference could drive a person insane.

Ye Zhen only took three days to learn the method of cultivating geomagnetic primal power from the Silver-horned Rhinoceros King Essence Soul Pearl, a time magnified a hundredfold.

But while observing, imitating, and learning the divine power of the geomagnetic field, Ye Zhen spent a full twenty-three days in a time flow a thousandfold slower.

The actual learning time exceeded thirty years.

After more than thirty years, Ye Zhen finally mastered the Silver-horned Rhinoceros King clan’s innate divine skill, the geomagnetic field.

This amount of time, compared to other martial artists cultivating powerful divine power secret techniques, is not quick, but certainly not slow either.

And in reality, only less than a month has passed.

In under a month, Ye Zhen mastered an exceptionally powerful innate divine ability with strategic advantages, which is what makes the Mirage Dragon Pearl truly defy the heavens.

Having truly mastered the geomagnetic field, Ye Zhen naturally wanted to test its power.

The first subject of the test was Little Cat.

If Ye Zhen immerses his divine sense within the Silver-horned Rhinoceros King Essence Soul Pearl, the maximum range of the geomagnetic field’s effect is only one kilometer.

However, if Ye Zhen himself deploys the geomagnetic field, the maximum range extends to ten kilometers.

And even this range is constrained by Ye Zhen’s limited stockpile of geomagnetic primal power.

With Ye Zhen’s current primordial spirit ability, if there were enough geomagnetic primal power, he could expand the power of the geomagnetic field to cover a hundred-mile radius.

In that scenario, Ye Zhen would need to painstakingly accumulate six months’ worth of geomagnetic primal power to deploy it once.

Presently, a ten-kilometer range is most suitable.

Ye Zhen found a subterranean cavern in the depths of the Sand Sea to conduct his tests.

The first test was the strength of the geomagnetic field within a radius of ten kilometers.

The characteristics of the geomagnetic field determine that the closer to the core it is, the stronger the power, while the farther it is from the emitter, the weaker the power.

According to Little Cat’s feeling, upon entering the ten-kilometer range, the force of the geomagnetic field nearby increased by five times.

To Little Cat, this intensity barely impacted his flying speed.

After entering within nine kilometers, the field’s intensity increased tenfold. This intensity began to impact Little Cat’s flying speed, though it remained minor.

Only when entering suddenly would Little Cat’s speed sharply decrease, but if Little Cat disregarded his energy consumption, his speed would still recover.

This remained true until the radius drawn back to five kilometers.

There was an impact, but if Little Cat ignored the energy expenditure, his speed remained unaffected.

However, upon entering the five-kilometer range, the intensity of the geomagnetic field abruptly increased a hundredfold, reducing Little Cat’s speed by ten percent despite his full power.

Bear in mind that Little Cat’s current speed is slightly faster than a typical late Dao Realm expert.

In other words, within a five-kilometer radius of the geomagnetic field, even a late Dao Realm expert’s speed would experience impact.

In comparison, the Great Sages of Fug Hai and Jinghai, whose cultivation was elevated to mid-stage Realm King Realm, were significantly more affected.

Within an eight-kilometer radius, their speeds dropped by over ten percent, and within five kilometers, their speeds halved dramatically.

If the five-kilometer range constitutes a strategic scope, then within three kilometers, it’s a lethal range for martial artists of the Realm King Realm.

Within three kilometers, the speed of a Realm King expert would reduce exponentially.

The Great Sage of Overturning Sea’s speed is impressive, yet upon entering the geomagnetic field within three kilometers, in Ye Zhen’s eyes, it crawled like a turtle.

Even without approaching, a thousand meters away, the Purple Cloud Divine Thunder could easily strike.

However, within three kilometers, Little Cat’s speed only decreased by thirty percent.

Upon crossing into the two-kilometer range, Little Cat’s speed plummeted by fifty percent.

For accurate testing, Ye Zhen also brought in Wang Baimu, who is at the half-step Dao Realm.

Within two kilometers, the half-step Dao Realm Wang Baimu’s speed more than halved.

And approaching Ye Zhen within five hundred meters, even Little Cat’s speed inevitably reduced more than twice.

Thus, the five-hundred-meter distance stands as Ye Zhen’s strategic range.

Suppose Ye Zhen approached an enemy within five hundred meters, or even within a thousand meters, using Wind Flash and Sweep, then simultaneously activated the geomagnetic field and unleashed all killing moves. In that case, even a Dao Realm expert would likely be devastated by Ye Zhen’s scheme.

Moreover, a five-hundred-meter range serves as a safe zone. If Ye Zhen maintains the geomagnetic field within this radius, any assailant intruding will suffer the consequences.

After half a day of testing, Ye Zhen reached a conclusion.

His geomagnetic field is quite effective within a five-kilometer radius. During combat, if Ye Zhen maintains the geomagnetic field within five hundred meters while executing Wind Flash and Sweep, it’ll be as if carrying a geomagnetic halo, surely catching enemies off guard.

Instantly, the myriad ingenious applications of the geomagnetic field unfold in Ye Zhen’s mind.

Moreover, as Ye Zhen’s pool of geomagnetic primal power amasses, with his primordial spirit power, the geomagnetic field’s potency can rise.

In just under a month, Ye Zhen added another powerful divine skill capable of slaying foes and preserving life to his arsenal. Ye Zhen was undoubtedly ecstatic.

Ye Zhen felt a pressing eagerness to cultivate the innate divine abilities of the other soul pearls within the Secret Realm of the Essence Spirit Pearl.

But just as Ye Zhen returned to the palace silence chamber from underground, the Talisman Token in his hand lit up, and the voice of Chief Steward Huang resounded.

"My lord, the High Priest has sent a message, asking me to invite you. The coronation ceremony is almost ready!"
