Eternal Life from the Golden Needle Technique

Chapter 556: Chapter 79: Countermeasure

BANG!

With a dull thud,

the Candidate Saintess of the Celestial Demon Sect, who had been on an unstoppable, invincible rampage just a moment before,

was struck by an attack that appeared out of nowhere. Like a kite with a snapped string, she was sent flying backward in full view of everyone!

?!?!!

The surviving prodigies from the various domains couldn’t process what had happened, staring blankly ahead.

They knew all too well how difficult the Candidate Saintess of the Celestial Demon Sect was to deal with.

They had been on the receiving end of her slaughter, after all.

From the moment she appeared until now,

they had exhausted every trick up their sleeves, yet they hadn’t even managed to touch the hem of her clothes!

In truth,

her strength wasn’t completely irresistible.

She was only at the Soul Emergence Ninth Layer Peak.

If all of them combined their power, they might have been able to put up a fight.

But she was too fast!

Whether it was a siege or a Divine Travel Realm Level attack sealed in a Jade Talisman, the moment it neared her, she would have already used Instant Teleportation to vanish from her spot.

This Instant Teleportation ability

left them utterly helpless!

But now,

this Candidate Saintess of the Celestial Demon Sect, who had rendered them so powerless, had been sent flying just like that?

Who was it?!

Who could possibly do such a thing!

The surviving prodigies frantically scanned their surroundings.

Meanwhile,

SWOOSH!

in mid-air,

the figure of the Candidate Saintess, who had been falling like a broken kite, vanished in an instant once more,

reappearing several hundred zhang away in the blink of an eye.

A trickle of blood escaped the corner of her mouth, her face a mask of shock and uncertainty.

”Who’s there?!”

’Was that... the Power of Space just now?’

In that instant,

a storm raged in the heart of the Celestial Demon Sect’s Candidate Saintess.

Just a moment ago,

she had been about to use the power of the Sky-Controlling Bracelet in her hand to Escape Space again and slay the remaining survivors.

But she suddenly discovered

that the power of her Sky-Controlling Bracelet seemed to be interfered with to some extent.

If

using the Sky-Controlling Bracelet to traverse space had previously felt as easy and simple as passing through a calm water surface,

then after the interference, trying to traverse space felt like crashing into an oncoming tsunami!

The sudden change made her instinctively give up on using the Sky-Controlling Bracelet.

Thus,

she hesitated for a split second.

And in that moment of hesitation,

an intangible Divine Soul Soul Attack suddenly descended, a piercing pain shot through her head, and finally, a beam of sword light struck her from afar.

The instantaneous attack

shattered her invincible momentum and sent her flying!

’This is trouble!’

The heart of the Celestial Demon Sect’s Candidate Saintess sank.

By relying on the power of the Ancient Sky-Controlling Bracelet combined with the Celestial Demon Charm Dance, she had rendered others completely unable to resist, allowing her to slaughter them with ease!

But now,

someone had found a way to counter this seemingly flawless, peak combination.

It was as if a flaw had appeared in her once Flawless Perfection Indestructible Golden Body,

a weakness found by the enemy, making her no longer invincible!

BOOM!!!

Countless thoughts flashed through the mind of the Celestial Demon Sect’s Candidate Saintess,

but it all happened in a flash.

Just as she used the Sky-Controlling Bracelet with her Tier Two Top Level Body Technique, the Celestial Demon Charm Dance, to flash several hundred zhang away,

the figure who had ambushed her

streaked through the sky like a lightning bolt, fast as the wind, and threw a punch. It flew toward her again, carrying a terrifying might that seemed capable of annihilating all things!

The Candidate Saintess of the Celestial Demon Sect sensed a hint of danger

and instinctively tried to use the Sky-Controlling Bracelet to escape and disappear.

However,

the moment her Heart Spirit connected with the Sky-Controlling Bracelet, preparing to Escape Space and teleport,

that feeling of facing a tsunami-like torrent in the surrounding space flooded her senses once more!

’Not good!’

In the end, the black-skirted girl didn’t dare to forcibly plunge into that ”spatial tsunami.”

She could only forcefully mobilize the Magical Power within her body, gathering layers of profound, starlight-like Palm Power in her jade-like right palm. She thrust her palm out to meet the attack, the Palm Power arcing like a rainbow, as if to suppress the very void, striking toward the incoming figure!

RUMBLE!!!

Along with a roar like muffled thunder,

a visible shockwave swept out in all directions. The area for a thousand zhang around was instantly repelled by terrifying Magical Power, as if forming a vacuum devoid of everything!

The ground beneath their feet

crumbled continuously,

as if pressed down by a formless giant hand. The earth caved in, forming an immense crater that spread out in all directions!

The power unleashed by the impact in that instant was simply unimaginable!

And at this moment,

the black-skirted girl was, after all, fighting hastily,

and she was not a Cultivator who excelled in direct, head-on combat.

In fact, direct confrontation was her greatest weakness!

As a result,

in this head-on clash,

a force like a collapsing mountain or an overturning sea surged through her palm. The terrifying Magical Power shattered her resistance,

and in the span of a breath,

this Candidate Saintess of the Celestial Demon Sect let out a muffled groan. Blood trickled from her lips once more as she was sent flying backward like a rag doll!

Having succeeded in his strike,

the attacker couldn’t help but reveal a look of joy.

The one who had attacked

was, of course, none other than Shen Changchuan, who had been hiding and observing the enemy!

’It’s just as I thought!’

By hiding in the shadows and observing,

and by relying on the Magic of his True Seeing Eyes, combined with his Divine Sense and perceiving space by communicating with the Void Escape Gu through a Secret Technique,

with this multi-layered combination,

he had finally found the black-skirted girl’s weakness!

’In the end, she’s relying on external power, not her own strength.’

’So, once she encounters interference from a similar Power of Space, she finds it difficult to use that Technique of instantly traversing space again!’

’Or rather, it’s not impossible for her to force its use, but she would then face the crushing force of spatial turbulence and encounter immense danger.’

’Furthermore, with the external interference preventing her from smoothly using the bracelet’s space-traversing ability, that strange Body Technique—which was originally in flawless sync with her spatial traversal—can no longer be used so freely. The balance is broken. Even if she forces its use, it won’t be as fluid as before!’

A trace of joy also rose in Shen Changchuan’s heart.

To be honest,

when facing the black-skirted girl with her space-manipulating bracelet and that bizarre Body Technique,

even he would have been powerless against such an opponent head-on!

Instant Teleportation,

the advantage of consecutive flashes was too great!

So great that you can’t even touch your opponent, while they can easily appear behind you when you least expect it and launch a fatal attack.

It’s practically cheating!

But at the same time,

as long as you could nullify this great, ”invincible” advantage of hers,

then,

she was just another Cultivator at the Soul Emergence Ninth Layer Peak!
