Chapter 653 - 642: Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique

"It’s within an ice cave inside the limestone cave."

Bai Suzhen seemed to admire and appreciate Ding Ling greatly, and didn’t hide anything from him, saying:

"In order to deal with that unpredictable divine-level expert, I thought of gathering the world’s strong to use them for myself. During these months, I found quite a few talented people I approve of and gave them the Martial Arts Secret Manual."

"Oh?"

Ding Ling’s heart stirred:

"You also taught Pojun the World-Ending Demon Body?"

"Yes."

Bai Suzhen said:

"Pojun has pretty good talent. Considered a talent. Unfortunately, his character has too many flaws, making him not worthy of great achievements. I originally intended for him to practice the World-Ending Demon Body and Ice Nether Hand here. Unfortunately, he hadn’t mastered the Ice Nether Hand when you arrived."

She paused and continued:

"But there’s no need for you to feel pressured. Pojun dared to brandish a knife at you, Ding Ling, so it’s better he’s dead."

Ding Ling nonchalantly asked:

"What about the corpse in the limestone cave?"

"It was gone before I arrived."

"Seems someone beat us to it."

Ding Ling was thoughtful; the Secret Manual of Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root was hidden very securely. Even if players knew it was hidden somewhere in the limestone cave, it wouldn’t help.

Unless they had Full Level in Array Dao, it would be hard to find the place where the manual was hidden.

And if players managed to find some people who were aware of the Sword Sect’s secret location, or quite simply, if some players accidentally stumbled upon the corpses of Jian Hui and others, it’s no surprise they searched the bodies.

Players leave no stone unturned, knocking, digging, taking away corpses—all too normal.

Ding Ling felt relieved.

These days, he’s been logging in and out hurriedly because his strength has been increasing rapidly.

Now, he can slash out a hundred-zhang blade beam in the real world as well!

Unbelievably formidable.

With his current cultivation, he can traverse the mundane with ease, and continuing to cultivate might make him indifferent to a nuclear bomb.

Thus, he’s been going online less often. Not knowing the recent players’ movements is reasonable.

"I don’t know what purpose the Demon Lord has in coming here."

"I’m here waiting for someone. Yet, I didn’t expect to meet you first."

"Oh?"

Ding Ling was curious and asked casually:

"Who are you waiting for?"

"The Immortal God."

"He isn’t dead?!"

"I’m not dead, so how could he be?"

Bai Suzhen quietly said:

"His lifespan this incarnation probably has reached its limit. He might soon seize the body of some genius for his own use. Unlike me, I can utilize a corpse as long as it retains vitality, human presence, its meridians haven’t decayed, and the body hasn’t rotted. For me, it poses no hindrance.

He is different.

His Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique, while seemingly granting immortality to ordinary people, truly cannot. It merely prolongs life.

Thus, every few decades or centuries as a reincarnation, he seizes upon a genius’s body, forcibly taking it for his own use."

At this point.

Ding Ling understood.

In the TV series, Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun mastered Infinite Power under Wuming’s guidance.

In the comics, however, the Immortal God set his sights on Bu Jingyun’s body, resulting in the ’natural Wind, Cloud’ absorbing fifty percent of Infinite Power.

Earlier, Ding Ling had asked Wuming, Nie Feng.

None understood Infinite Power.

And Ding Ling had sensed Nie Feng’s body, finding no magical force of Infinite Power. It shows this world’s Immortal God might still be intact now.

Thinking this world is a fusion of TV dramas, comics, movies, and novels, many characters and plots must have changed, Ding Ling felt relieved, no longer worried and simply asked:

"Since the Demon Lord and the Immortal God are already foes, why meet?"

"Of course, must meet."

Bai Suzhen landed on the ground, gazing into the distance as fierce winds made her skirt rustle constantly:

"I actually want to kill him too. He probably feels the same. As it is, a battle between us is inevitable. I’ve come here to settle this old feud with him! If I’m alive, so be it, but if I die, then the world’s matters won’t concern me anymore; it will all be up to you, Ding Ling. After all, you are the future emperor of Jiuzhou; if Jiuzhou collapses, can you stay uninvolved?"

Ding Ling glanced at the Character Panel.

After defeating Bai Suzhen.

Mission 2, progress is also 0.

Evidently, Bai Suzhen isn’t the number one in this world.

And for Ding Ling to complete his mission, he definitely must defeat the ’divine-level expert’ Bai Suzhen mentioned, so Ding Ling didn’t hesitate and said directly:

"I certainly will take care of Jiuzhou’s matters. Even the gods and demons you speak of, I will try to challenge or even kill them!"

"The young are formidable."

Bai Suzhen looked appreciatively at Ding Ling and said:

"My intention is to join forces with some supreme powerhouses, and charge to the Celestial Realm once more. Since you have this confidence, Ding Ling, I will pass you some Secret Manuals, to make you stronger! I wonder what Martial Arts you would like to learn?"

"If the Demon Lord can impart all the Martial Arts Secret Manuals she knows to me, nothing could be better."

Ding Ling smiled slightly and said:

"I am confident I can learn all your Secret Manual Martial Arts."

"Good."

The Demon Lord generously transmitted the World-Ending Demon Body and other Martial Arts to Divine General, Pojun, etc., so of course, she wouldn’t begrudge teaching Ding Ling. Moreover, she sincerely doesn’t wish for this world she lives in to crumble, and most importantly, she hopes someone can emerge to kill the gods and demons.

Those gods and demons shattered the perfect body she painstakingly cultivated!

In her shock and fear, how could she not hate?

Immediately.

The Demon Lord taught Ding Ling the Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique:

"This Divine Skill is impossible to cultivate without high comprehension and strong innate talent. Seeing how you learned the World-Ending Demon Body instantly, I assume cultivating this Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique should be no problem either."

She merely recited the Mantra Technique without further explanation.

Because during her search for worldly talents, she discovered such a heaven-defying anomaly like Ding Ling, followed him for a while, and found that Ding Ling mastered any technique instantly. She hid in the shadows at the time, also shocked and deeply impressed.

Therefore, she eagerly wanted to see if Ding Ling could quickly master her current Heaven-defying Level Martial Arts.

Ding Ling listened to the mantra of the Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique.

Meditated once in his mind.

[Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique Inner Power Full Level]

[Inner Power Value +300]

[Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique External Skill Full Level]

[Strength +0.4]

[Defense +0.4]

[Physique +0.6]

This Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique is the same as the World-Ending Demon Body, also a Supreme Technique of both internal and external cultivation!

Once Full Level.

The Spiritual Vitality and Primordial Qi surged like tidewater; Ding Ling activated the Eternal Youth Technique, and soon, a drop of Longevity True Water appeared in his Dantian.

[True Power Value 63 points]

After reaching Full Level, Ding Ling’s lifespan increased once more.

Because the Heaven-Transferring Divine Technique, when cultivated to its peak, indeed has the wondrous effect of extending lifespan. Additionally, it possesses detoxification, restoration, healing effects, which are quite impressive.
