Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 351: Chapter 348 Snacks

The power of the Qiankun Six Absolute Palm is truly astonishing.

The Fearless Great Perfection Handprint draws upon the Outer Heaven Power from the void, already an unparalleled force in the world.

Yet, it cannot overcome these strange insects.

The purely Fearless Realm power is most adept at defense, comparable to the spiritual defense of a Great Grandmaster.

But its attacking power is much weaker.

He knows that it’s not the Fearless Great Perfection Handprint that’s weak, but rather that he has only mastered one move.

The most basic move merely channels the power of the Fearless Realm without a specific method of use.

It’s like the Internal Cultivation Methods producing inner strength but no martial skills to manifest its power.

In such circumstances, among many hand skills, he thought of the Qiankun Six Absolute Palm.

The Great Heavenly Dragon Fist, albeit powerful, might not be able to break through the shells of these strange insects due to their hardness.

Among various fist and palm techniques, the most sinister and powerful is the Qiankun Six Absolute Palm.

The palm power of the Six Absolute Palm consists not of one force, but six: duality, yin-yang, reality-illusion, and more, hence the name Six Absolute.

Its strength changes unpredictably, specializing in penetrating defenses indirectly.

Once the Qiankun Six Absolute Palm is activated, its power indeed exceeds expectations.

He had practiced during his spare time, reaching the sixth level in the Six Absolute Palm but hardly ever used it.

He only knew its power was extraordinary, but to what extent, he never gauged until now.

Now he finally comprehends its formidable strength, no wonder it can defeat numerous Great Grandmasters with ease.

”Was Lu Yaofeng exploring that cave mansion with the Ninth Princess?”

”Precisely, later the Wuyou Sect delivered the secret manual of the Qiankun Six Absolute Palm, which I destroyed immediately, but I had already studied it.”

”Is it possible to practice such a secret manual?”

”This secret manual is indeed full of traps, but I’ve seen through them all.”

Some are traps, some are flaws, some are reversed. Without sufficient cultivation, insight, and martial arts knowledge, following this secret manual is surely fatal.

He evaded these traps due to his high insight and vast martial arts knowledge.

More importantly, it was due to his Super Sense, his intuition.

By imagining himself starting cultivation, his intuition would warn him of impending danger.

Only after eliminating all the traps from the secret manual would his intuition cease its warnings.

Only then did he dare to practice.

The Qiankun Six Absolute Palm had achieved some minor success, already demonstrating such astonishing power.

...

Xiao Ruoling examined the ground stained green, with dozens of demon crystals flickering, like jewels.

She curiously asked, ”Why not use flying knife?”

She originally thought Chu Zhiyuan would use flying knife.

Chu Zhiyuan’s strongest ability was the flying knife, and these flying knives were not ordinary, but all were treasured knives.

Compared to palm power, flying knives should be more forceful.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, ”I cannot use flying knives.”

”Why?” Xiao Ruoling asked, ”Can’t break through their shells?”

Chu Zhiyuan tapped his foot lightly, a green stone the size of a fist flew out from the thick snow, heading for the area stained with green pulp.

”Sizzle...”

As soon as the green stone touched the green juice on the snow, it started emitting white smoke instantly.

White smoke billowed upwards, and the green rock rapidly shrunk and eventually vanished.

”This formidable?!” Xiao Ruoling exclaimed, her expression slightly changing.

This green pulp indeed possessed strong corrosiveness, no wonder he didn’t use flying knives.

If the flying knives touched them, they’d definitely be corroded as well.

No matter how many flying knives he had, they wouldn’t surpass the number of these black insects and would quickly be corroded away.

Such strong corrosiveness, if it touched one’s body, it would be catastrophic.

She marveled, ”How did you know their blood is so highly corrosive?”

”Intuition, I suppose,” Chu Zhiyuan replied.

Xiao Ruoling remarked admiringly, ”This intuition is truly...”

Intuition led him to choose the best response, using the optimal martial arts technique.

Many experts, despite their strong cultivation, still perish prematurely, dying inexplicably.

Just like this time, if it had been her, even if not killed, she would have been severely injured.

If it was other Grandmasters, they might have faced life-threatening situations.

Unaware of the extraordinary hardness of their shells, they could easily get bitten or killed.

Unaware of their blood’s extreme corrosiveness, even killing the black insects would lead to being corroded, either disfigured or gravely injured, possibly dead.

Either scenario leads to injury or death.

This is the terrifying aspect of the Secret Land, dangers lurking everywhere; if not for the life-saving spirit pills possessed by the disciples of Yao Yue Palace, they would not dare enter this Secret Land so lightly.

Other sects’ experts, without life-saving spirit pills, could easily die accidentally.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, ”Compared to my aptitude and insight, this intuition is the strongest.”

”Indeed,” Xiao Ruoling agreed.

Chu Zhiyuan lightly tapped his foot, a withered branch flew out of the snow, landing in his hand.

An only foot-long withered branch.

He gently shook it, a mass of purple aura swiftly emerged from his palm, covering the withered branch, in the blink of an eye fully enveloping it.

The withered branch transformed, exuding a layer of purple brilliance, like being carved from purple jade.

Then he threw it, gently flying to the green juice-stained area as if held by an invisible hand.

It touched down lightly and adhered to a demon crystal with each tap.

One by one, the demon crystals adhered to it, eventually covering it entirely, leaving no space.

After being filled with demon crystals, it flew towards Chu Zhiyuan, then released the demon crystals all at once.

The demon crystals fell in succession.

Chu Zhiyuan flicked his sleeve, snow danced in the air, sending the falling demon crystals into the sky.

With another flick of the sleeve, snow rolled in the air and struck the demon crystals.

After three times, the demon crystals fell to the ground, clean and clear like crystals.

Chu Zhiyuan displayed a satisfied smile, gesturing with his hand.

A demon crystal landed in his palm, like a diamond, dazzling magnificently.

”These demon crystals aren’t particularly useful, are they?” Xiao Ruoling asked.

She was still marvelling.

Chu Zhiyuan’s utilization of Gang Qi was indeed flexible and controlled with precision, demonstrating profound skill.

From his series of actions, one couldn’t tell his rapid progress, as if honed over decades.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”The Heavenly Dragon Divine Horse loves them, they’re nice snacks.”

This time, without the Heavenly Dragon Divine Horse, it might have taken more effort to repel the Netherworld God Envoy, the faceless Impermanence.

Naturally, they should be well rewarded, as these demon crystals are highly appealing to them.

Additionally, the demon crystals can enhance their power and speed, making them treasures to the horses.

Storing more than a hundred demon crystals into a small cloth bag, tucking it into his sleeve, they actually entered the iron ring.

These more than a hundred demon crystals are barely enough for them, just filling the gap.

”I was planning to head back, but now it seems there’s no rush.” Chu Zhiyuan smiled, ”Let’s proceed further.”

Seeing if he could lure these black insects out and harvest their demon crystals once more.

The quality of these demon crystals is extremely high.

”Then let’s go and have a look,” Xiao Ruoling agreed either way.

This snow-white world, despite its oppression, indeed yields significant gains, worthwhile exploring.

Subsequently, the two avoided the green juice-stained area, continuing forward, leaving two rows of footprints in the snow.

...

After walking more than ten miles, Chu Zhiyuan stopped again.

Xiao Ruoling initially thought they had made a gain, but seeing Chu Zhiyuan’s serious expression, it seemed more like danger than gain.

Chu Zhiyuan said softly, ”Prepare to escape.”

Xiao Ruoling was taken aback.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slightly, indicating he was not exaggerating.

Xiao Ruoling solemnly nodded in response.

”Bang!”

The ground suddenly exploded, snow scattering.

A giant pangolin burst through the snow, charging at them.

Standing ten meters tall and twenty meters long, its armor shimmered with a black luster, moving as swiftly as lightning.
