Eternal Life from the Golden Needle Technique

Chapter 431: Chapter 429: Slaying the Enemy with Divine Techniques

Having surpassed the bottleneck of the Soul Emergence Middle Stage, Shen Changchuan’s strength underwent another transformation.

He brought two fingers together, forming a sword sign, and unleashed the vast, boundless torrent of Magical Power within him.

VMMMM!

Along with a sword cry that echoed through the heavens, with every casual gesture, layers of Cyan Wood Sword Light erupted with a sharp, dazzling radiance, slicing through the void as they flew, one after another, toward Qiu Kunsheng!

This had once been Shen Changchuan’s trump card back in the Qi Introduction Realm, and while the Cyan Wood Sword Light wasn’t technically considered Tier Two Magic, it served as a simplified prerequisite for the Divine Skill Sanqing Forest Sword Array and was thus connected to it.

After Shen Changchuan advanced to the Soul Emergence Realm and formed his Divine Seed, his understanding of the Cyan Wood Sword Light naturally deepened.

Later, the Divine Seed evolved.

As Shen Changchuan’s Cultivation Realm rose, his perspective broadened and his accumulation of techniques became unfathomable. This vast foundation even allowed him to modify some of his Secret Techniques.

As a result, his understanding of the Cyan Wood Sword Light, his old trump card, naturally reached a whole new level!

The Cyan Wood Sword Light of today was not the same as it once was.

It was born from the original technique, but it had evolved further alongside Shen Changchuan’s own growth and accumulation!

This technique contained a fraction of a Divine Technique’s might, backed by the foundation Shen Changchuan had built by mastering over a thousand techniques to the Perfection level.

Its power was now in no way inferior to that of a Tier Two Magic!

And now, the Ninth Layer Sword Light erupted.

It was the equivalent of nine Tier Two Killing Techniques being unleashed simultaneously.

In an instant, the sky and the earth were pierced by a sharp and chilling aura. The cold light was so intense that the sky itself seemed to split in two wherever the sword pointed!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The layers of Cyan Wood Sword Light struck Qiu Kunsheng, who was charging forward like a streaking meteor.

In a flash, a series of explosions erupted from the impacts. A blinding light flared as a violent roar swept across the heavens, followed by shockwaves powerful enough to make the very air boil for miles around! ℯℯ𝘭.

Nearby, Wei Yuting felt her Heart Spirit tremble from the terrifying impact. She let out a muffled grunt, her face paling slightly.

The Ninth Layer Mountain Range Formation, which she had been struggling to maintain, began to teeter on the verge of collapse.

It shook violently in the face of the world-sweeping energy storm, looking as if it would be pierced and torn apart at any second!

”So strong!”

Wei Yuting’s Heart Spirit trembled. She hurriedly forced herself to focus, pouring more and more Magical Power into the Array Plate to stabilize the Array.

But as she gazed at the two figures battling high in the sky, her eyes filled with utter shock.

Qiu Kunsheng was one thing. Even though he had suffered a great loss when his Lifebound Corpse Refinement was destroyed in that previous incident, he was, after all, the former Sect Leader of a Top Level Sect in the Nanyue Kingdom and a notorious old Demon throughout Nanyue. He was bound to have some aces up his sleeve and wouldn’t be easy to defeat.

’But what in the world is going on with my own junior brother?’

’Nine techniques, each comparable to Tier Two Magic, were unleashed in a single instant???’

’Perfection Techniques can be cast instantaneously.’ Wei Yuting knew this, because she herself had mastered two Perfection Tier Two Skills and often used them in battle.

’And because of that, she knew very well that while Perfection Tier Two Skills could be cast instantaneously, it didn’t mean that one could use them at will in the middle of a fight.’

’In fact, there was a limit to a Cultivator’s output when casting magic.’

’For example, a Cultivator at the Soul Emergence Seventh Layer could cast a Perfection Tier Two Skill dozens of times in a row before completely exhausting their Magical Power.’

’But at the same time, in a single instant, they could only cast one or two Tier Two Magic spells at most!’

’Shen Changchuan had instantly unleashed a nine-layered technique, with each layer comparable to a Tier Two Magic. His feat was like forcing an outlet, which could normally only release one unit of water per breath from a hundred-unit pool, to release nine units of water in that same single breath!’

’It was incomprehensible. And unbelievable!’

’Could it be... this was the world as seen through the eyes of a peerless genius? Effortlessly shattering common sense and achieving things ordinary people couldn’t even dream of!’

The horrified thoughts in Wei Yuting’s mind were unknown to the two combatants in the Array.

Or perhaps, the two of them had no time or energy to pay attention to anyone else!

Both of them were unleashing power that surpassed their limits, locked in a fierce assault with the absolute resolve to kill their opponent.

Waves of monstrous aura swept the sky as terrifying killing blows clashed one after another. A continuous, deafening roar echoed across the world, and the terrifying power unleashed was so immense that the very fabric of the Secret Realm Ruins began to tremble!

Beneath the brilliant light of their clashing techniques, the two fought at speeds that defied the naked eye, colliding in a flicker of lightning.

World-destroying techniques intertwined and crashed against each other. The resulting destructive force exploded outward as streaks of lightning tore across the sky!

Be it Qiu Kunsheng or Shen Changchuan, every strike they unleashed possessed the supreme power to shatter mountains and rivers!

Their battle reached a level comparable only to a clash between experts at the Eighth Layer Late Stage, or perhaps even the Eighth Layer Peak!

And yet, throughout this exchange, Shen Changchuan, with his Cultivation of having just entered the Soul Emergence Seventh Layer, didn’t fall behind in the slightest!

This undoubtedly sent monstrous waves crashing through Qiu Kunsheng’s heart!

”Damn it! How is this possible?!”

”He just broke through the bottleneck of the Sixth Layer Peak, and he already has strength comparable to the Eighth Layer Late Stage?!”

”This brat!!!!”

In the midst of their fierce clash, Qiu Kunsheng had used every trick up his sleeve, yet still failed to gain the slightest advantage.

Worse, he could only watch as Shen Changchuan used their fight to constantly hone his skills and rapidly master the power of his new Soul Emergence Seventh Layer Realm.

His strength was improving at a rate visible to the naked eye!

This filled Qiu Kunsheng’s heart with both shock and fury!

He was furious that this little bastard had not only taken advantage of his carelessness to use him as a whetstone for a breakthrough to the Soul Emergence Seventh Layer, but was now continuing to use him as a stepping stone to further hone his newfound power!

The utter lack of respect was galling!

’He, Qiu Kunsheng, was a renowned figure throughout the entire Nanyue Kingdom. When had he ever suffered such a great humiliation?!’

But at the same time, more than the anger in his heart, his Heart Spirit was filled with terror!

’Because if he had gone all out right when the brat had just broken through, he might have been able to gain a slight upper hand. But as time went on, as the battle raged on, the brat’s control over his post-breakthrough Realm power was deepening bit by bit. His strength was visibly increasing, and Qiu Kunsheng could no longer gain any advantage whatsoever!’

’If this continues, he will die!’

A single, terrifying thought consumed Qiu Kunsheng’s mind!
