Eternal Life from the Golden Needle Technique

Chapter 274: Chapter 271: Using All Means

CRACK... CRACK...

Within the void,

a sound like shattering glass seemed to echo!

This was the phantom sound of his oppressive might shattering—the very pressure the man in black had used to encompass heaven and earth and suppress the air itself!

Shen Changchuan had used the Power of his Divine Sense to control three incomparably potent streams of Cyan Wood Sword Light. By mimicking the power of a Sword Array Divine Technique to form a Minor Three Talents formation, he had achieved an unparalleled transformation, drastically enhancing his already boundless Magic.

And so, in the span of a single breath,

the overwhelming force that suppressed all—conjured by the man in black’s giant, storm-like hand—was torn to shreds by the sharp edge of the skyward-surging Sword Momentum!

BOOOOOOM!!!

The two incomparably powerful attacks collided.

A clash of sharp points, perfectly matched.

Instantly, a tremendous, earth-shattering explosion erupted!

Throughout the entire valley,

a visible shockwave suddenly billowed outward, rapidly expanding into a sphere before sweeping across the entire landscape!

Everywhere it passed,

the trees and grass on the mountains turned to dust. The ground trembled violently, and spiderweb-like cracks spread out for dozens of yards!

Not far away,

the Array Light Curtain that enveloped the entire valley began to shake violently!

”Impressive!”

”To be able to achieve this much at the Qi Introduction Realm... Forget the Tian Nan Domain, I doubt there are many across the entire Southern Thirty-Six Domains who could match you!”

A single clash of blows,

and they were evenly matched!

The expression of the man in black grew solemn.

He was, of course, aware of Shen Changchuan’s track record.

From Xu Ziming, whom he had killed despite being at a lower Realm, to Mo Lingfeng, whom he had defeated head-on—he knew about them all.

But he had still chosen to act.

Because even though Shen Changchuan’s record indicated he already possessed the combat prowess of the Soul Emergence Realm First Layer,

his own Cultivation Realm was the Soul Emergence Second Layer.

And he also wielded Tier Two Level Magic!

In his view,

killing his opponent shouldn’t have been a difficult task.

Unleashing a Tier Two Magic with his full power as a Soul Emergence Realm Second Layer expert should have been more than enough to crush and kill his opponent with sheer overwhelming force!

But the facts before him proved otherwise.

’It seems I’ve miscalculated!’

’To think he could withstand a Tier Two Magic cast with my full power.’

’It seems the outside world’s understanding of you is far from complete!’

It had to be said,

the man in black was truly shocked.

At first, he thought he had already overestimated Shen Changchuan as much as possible.

Now, it was clear he had severely underestimated him!

However,

there was no panic on the man in black’s covered face.

Shen Changchuan’s strength and methods had certainly exceeded his expectations,

but so what?

His opponent was, after all, only at the Qi Introduction Realm.

Even if he possessed some Extraordinary means to unleash a blow capable of matching his own full-power attack for a short time,

the quantity and quality of his Magical Power were irrefutably far inferior to his own!

’As long as I drag this out a little,’

’and exhaust his Magical Power,’

’I will be the inevitable victor!’

And so,

the man in black wasted no more words.

BOOM!!!

His fingers formed a Technique,

and with a single thought,

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!

Fireballs, fire dragons, sword lights, water blades, Wind Blades... he unleashed a barrage of Tier One Techniques in an instant.

In mid-air,

a kaleidoscope of multi-colored lights nearly blotted out the sky, raining down on Shen Changchuan like a torrential storm!

’This is bad...’

Lifting his head,

he watched the spells descend,

and Shen Changchuan’s expression became extremely grave.

’Without a doubt,’

’my opponent has found my greatest weakness!’

These Tier One Techniques might not be very effective against a Soul Emergence Realm Cultivator of the same level,

because such a being could easily block them with their Divine Sense and powerful Magical Power alone.

However,

he was not a Soul Emergence Realm Cultivator!

Every single technique his opponent unleashed, whether Tier One or Tier Two, would require a great deal of his own Magical Power and energy to deal with!

’Under such a dense bombardment,’

’even if I defend with all my might,’

’my Magical Power won’t be enough to last very long!’

Shen Changchuan’s mind raced as he searched for a countermeasure.

But at this moment,

there was no more time to think.

The sky full of Tier One Techniques was already crashing down!

His figure retreated rapidly, blurring into an afterimage visible to the naked eye.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!!

The dense barrage of Magic missed its mark, slamming into the ground and setting off a chain of massive explosions.

The earth was blasted with crater after crater, shaking violently.

The power of flames, storms, Thunder, lightning, Sword Momentum, and more swept out with the violent energy shockwaves!

Such a savage scene,

if any other Qi Introduction Realm Cultivator were here, they would have been torn to shreds by the terrifyingly dense assault in moments!

But Shen Changchuan’s figure was like a bolt of lightning, weaving continuously through the gaps in the rain of Magic,

relying on his Perfection Level Body Technique to dodge one incredibly powerful attack after another,

all while retreating rapidly.

However,

locked on by the man in black’s Divine Sense, the remaining spells acted like homing missiles, pursuing Shen Changchuan relentlessly!

And so,

as Shen Changchuan retreated,

along the path he took,

the ground was continuously and violently bombarded, as if a huge swath had been plowed open!

It didn’t take long before,

in his hasty retreat, Shen Changchuan had backed up all the way to the Array Light Curtain!

His path backward was blocked by the Array Light Curtain.

There was nowhere left to retreat!

Seeing that high above,

the dense swarm of Tier One Techniques was about to fall and engulf him,

Shen Changchuan formed a Magic Formula,

”Rise!”

In an instant,

HUMMM!

Following a soft hum,

a cyan light rapidly pulsed outward. A Bronze Bell swiftly expanded, propping up a cyan light curtain that enveloped Shen Changchuan like a small mountain!

It was the Treasure Bronze Bell!

With no escape and no other choice,

Shen Changchuan had summoned the strongest Treasure Artifact in his possession!

BOOOOOOM!!!!

A torrent of Magical Attacks crashed down one after another, smashing against the illusory image of the Bronze Bell!

In a flash,

a continuous, thunderous roar of explosions erupted.

The entire valley began to vibrate violently!

At that moment,

sheltered beneath the protection of the Treasure Bronze Bell, Shen Changchuan also felt the violent tremors.

The immense power even penetrated the Bronze Bell and passed through to his body!

It felt as if mountains were crashing down upon him!

His shoulders seemed to bear an immense, crushing weight!

The ground beneath his feet had already completely collapsed, forming a massive crater dozens of yards in diameter.

Outside the Bronze Bell,

a terrifying storm of energy had been whipped up by the torrential bombardment of Magic!

The Bronze Bell vibrated violently,

and Shen Changchuan’s entire body felt somewhat numb.

For a moment,

Shen Changchuan felt a sense of powerlessness, despite the many techniques at his disposal!
