Chapter 321 - 318: Earth-Shattering
Without a doubt,
at this very moment,
Zhou Lingyun was putting his all into this strike!
Whether in terms of power or posture,
it was a world apart from the casual air he had when fighting the Soul Emergence Realm Cultivators from the Shen Family in the arena square of Tian Nan City!
This attack was so powerful,
even an ordinary Soul Emergence Third Layer Cultivator would not dare to underestimate it!
A moment of carelessness would lead to severe injury, or even death!
’Magical Power concentrated to a single point, a momentum that could sever anything, and an aura no weaker than the Soul Emergence Third Layer... Is this what a Cultivator from the Central State Immortal Cultivation World is like?!’
’Is this the result of special training, or has he cultivated some kind of Secret Technique?’
Faced with this terrifying slash,
Shen Changchuan showed no trace of fear. A faint white light reflected in his pupils as the power of his True Seeing Eyes flowed, combining with his formidable Divine Sense Power to see through the very structure of the attack.
Numerous thoughts flashed through his mind.
And in that instant,
the sharp blade light, capable of severing anything, was right before his eyes!
But this time,
Shen Changchuan did not choose to block it with the Treasure Bronze Bell again.
CRACKLE!
Faint arcs of lightning burst forth around Shen Changchuan, seeming to tear through the void!
Thunder Shadow Swift Movement!
In the next moment,
SWISH!
Shen Changchuan’s figure vanished in a flash!
The Tier Two Perfection Body Technique made Shen Changchuan’s speed reach an unbelievable level!
SHING!
Zhou Lingyun’s slash hit nothing but air!
The long, ribbon-like blade light stretched for dozens, even hundreds of feet. Its terrifying power was unleashed, carving a massive fissure into the ground below!
’Not good!’
Zhou Lingyun’s heart sank.
A sudden realization struck him, and his heart plummeted to the depths.
However,
before he could even react,
almost at the same instant,
Shen Changchuan’s figure appeared behind him in a flash.
He raised his hand,
clenched his fist,
and threw a punch that descended like a falling Meteor!
The very air was punched through, and a boundless power came crushing down!
BANG!
Zhou Lingyun felt a force like a collapsing mountain slam into his back.
A white light Shield instantly activated on his body, but it shattered in the very next breath.
Another Jade Talisman on his waist crumbled to dust.
Zhou Lingyun’s body shot down toward the earth like a cannonball!
BOOOOOOM!!!
With a tremendous roar, the ground instantly caved in, shaking violently as a cloud of dust and debris billowed up!
"Hm?"
Not far away,
the square-faced middle-aged man’s expression changed upon seeing this.
SWOOSH!
His figure vanished in an instant.
But in the next moment,
BOOM!
A seemingly empty point in space exploded. Majestic power surged out like a flash flood, and a large area of space rippled violently like a mirror’s surface.
The next moment,
the square-faced middle-aged man’s figure was sent stumbling backward in a sorry state, as if struck by a massive force and squeezed out of that space.
And at that same time,
Shen Chong’s figure appeared directly in front of him.
"This path is closed!"
Shen Chong stared at the square-faced middle-aged man, his expression calm.
However,
his heart was not nearly as tranquil as he appeared.
’Incredible. Truly incredible!’
’That kid over there just broke through to the Soul Emergence Realm not long ago, didn’t he?’
’To have cultivated a Tier Two Body Technique to Perfection in such a short time?’
’Such talent and Comprehension in Magic is truly astounding!’
Inside Shen Chong’s mind,
an ancient voice clicked its tongue in admiration.
Unless one’s Comprehension and talent were monstrously demonic, the Cultivation of Magic had to be built up bit by bit, polished through the accumulation of time. There were no shortcuts!
Furthermore, the difficulty of its Cultivation was extremely high.
An ordinary Soul Emergence Realm Cultivator might spend several years, or even more than a decade, and still not be able to cultivate a Tier Two Magic to Perfection!
And this was precisely why Treasure Artifacts were so precious to Soul Emergence Realm Cultivators!
If one hadn’t cultivated a Magic to Perfection, they couldn’t cast it instantaneously. This meant they couldn’t command it with ease in battle, making it difficult to use effectively.
After all, at the speeds of the Soul Emergence Realm, your opponent wouldn’t give you time to prepare your casting.
Being interrupted while casting a Magic was practically a death wish!
Thus,
Treasure Artifacts, which could be used at any time,
naturally became extremely important.
After refining and equipping a Treasure Artifact, one only needed two or three days to get familiar with it to unleash power on the level of Tier Two Magic.
This undoubtedly provided a huge advantage in battles between peers of the same Realm!
As such, it was the first choice for countless Soul Emergence Realm Cultivators.
The market price of Treasure Artifacts,
naturally rose with the demand.
But in the end, Treasure Artifacts were merely substitutes for Cultivators who had not yet mastered a Perfection Level Tier Two Magic.
In fact, compared to Treasure Artifacts,
a Tier Two Magic that could be activated instantaneously at any time offered an even greater advantage in combat!
Just like now,
Shen Changchuan, having mastered a Perfection Tier Two Body Technique, could advance to attack or retreat to defend whenever he faced an enemy.
He was already in a practically undefeatable position!
’It’s truly a bit hard to believe.’
’This battle... that kid has it in the bag!’
The voice deep in Shen Chong’s mind sighed with emotion.
Not long ago,
news had just spread that Shen Changchuan had advanced to the Soul Emergence Realm.
Yet now,
he had a Perfection Level Tier Two Body Technique at his command.
It was obvious,
his talent and Comprehension in the Cultivation of Magic were simply astounding!
In response to this,
Shen Chong remained silent with a placid expression, but he couldn’t help but clench his fists.
He gave Shen Changchuan a deep look from afar.
This half-brother of his,
his natural talent was truly formidable!
Shen Chong had to admit,
without the help of this mysterious master, he might not be a match for him.
Of course,
it wasn’t as if Shen Chong would feel inferior because of it.
Fortuitous encounters and luck were also a part of one’s strength.
Although the motives of the mysterious old fellow in his mind were questionable,
his Cultivation Realm was indeed profound and unfathomable.
He was an existence at least above the Profound Pill Realm!
With the old fellow’s help,
no matter how great Shen Changchuan’s talent was, he would find it difficult to even glimpse his back in the future!
Therefore, Shen Changchuan’s excellent performance
only made Shen Chong happy for him, without a trace of jealousy.
’Heh heh...’
As if sensing Shen Chong’s inner thoughts, the voice let out an inscrutable chuckle in his mind.
"Get the hell out of my way!"
Just then,
the square-faced middle-aged man opposite him roared, thrusting a palm that conjured a giant hand that blotted out the sky, sending an earth-shattering, monstrous wave crashing toward Shen Chong!
His face was etched with urgency.
The voice in Shen Chong’s head could tell that Shen Changchuan had the advantage of an undefeatable position in the other battle, and he, of course, could see it as well.
