Chapter 3293 - 1241: Reverse Deduction Technique, Divine Power Formed (Part 2)

Chapter 3293: Chapter 1241: Reverse Deduction Technique, Divine Power Formed (Part 2)

Seeing that he was unable to step down gracefully, Master You Huang, who after all was his close friend of many years, spoke up to ease things: "Senior Brother Hong Zhan, why be like this? Although Yaoxi focuses on cultivation, she has never neglected the instruction of her disciples. Otherwise, how could Jade Spring Peak have produced three Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators in one stroke? That is all due to Yaoxi’s guidance!"

Master Hong Zhan’s expression sank.

This was precisely the thing that annoyed him the most.

Yaoxi’s luck was simply too good!

Back when she succeeded in Nascent Soul Formation, she immediately won the Sect Master’s favor and was granted his former personal flying carriage.

After advancing to Late Stage Nascent Soul, everything went even more smoothly for her.

That alone would be fine, but she happened to take on a few disciples, and without putting much effort into them, they went and cultivated themselves up to the Nascent Soul Stage.

Now within the Sect, Master Yaoxi’s reputation was outstanding; countless Lower Order Disciples wished to enter her tutelage.

How was Master Hong Zhan supposed to accept that?

He spoke in a mocking Yin Yang tone: "Teaches them well, does she? Then I’d very much like to see what exactly one can cultivate by using even the time for mere travelling to practice his Kung Fu so ’diligently’."

Because of the clash between the two, the atmosphere inside the hall became somewhat strange for a time.

Those accustomed to it could let it pass, but juniors like Jiang Huang could not interject; they could only stand quietly to the side, eyes to nose, nose to heart.

Naturally, Master Helan would not allow them to keep fooling around. He quickly interrupted their quarrel and began talking about the upcoming Demon Suppression Trial.

"Within the demon cave, Spirit Qi is thin; most of it has been transformed into ferocious Demonic Qi by the Nine Nether Demon Moss, which is quite disadvantageous to our fighting. Therefore..."

...

In a quiet room, Luo Chen sat cross-legged upon a cushion, slowly withdrawing his Divine Perception.

He had heard the argument over in Qingxiao Hall clearly, but it stirred little emotion in him.

The reason he did not attend the gathering of fellow disciples was simply that he did not wish to waste effort on these meaningless social interactions.

Especially given his disguise: before the others he was a junior, unable to speak up on many matters.

So he might as well avoid what the eye did not see and the heart did not fret over, cutting off dealings altogether.

Once he truly entered that so-called Dark Demon Cave, he would not need the help of these Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators at all.

Speaking of which, he was instead paying some attention to the state of his cheap master, Master Yaoxi.

"Her Mental State is unstable."

Though it was due to those close to her, Yaoxi flaring up in anger at the slightest thing was clearly not the condition a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator ought to have.

Most likely it was because she had spent nearly a hundred years in bitter cultivation, breaking through to Late Stage Nascent Soul.

As soon as she broke through, before she had time to stabilize her Realm, she went out to rescue Luo Chen.

After returning, she then devoted herself wholeheartedly to helping her disciple Jiang Huang recover her condition.

Thus missing the most crucial period of settling.

To enter the Demon Suppression Trial in such a state—if luck was poor, problems were likely.

"Given the care she’s shown me, when we go in I should perhaps leave a mark on Yaoxi in advance and lend her a hand along the way."

Luo Chen muttered this once, then focused his attention on his hands.

A Golden Spear Mark slowly surfaced as his Qi Power surged.

It was precisely the Divine Power Introduction that Elder Tian Ge had bestowed upon him!

When he said he would cultivate it, he was not merely making excuses.

Taking advantage of some free time, he might as well study this thing.

As for how to trigger it, Luo Chen naturally understood.

It was nothing more than focusing Qi Power and Divine Consciousness upon it, after which this mark would, under the guidance of the Law’s True Intent of Gold Origin, draw in Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and unleash a complete Divine Power.

But Luo Chen was not concerned with that.

He cared more about how Elder Tian Ge had produced this Divine Power Introduction.

"Its state is not very stable; from time to time Qi Power leaks out. Within a few years it will dissipate completely."

"It seems Elder Tian Ge himself is not very proficient in this technique."

"The Divine Perception imprint within is not heavy, yet the Qi Power contains a strand of powerful force—the Golden Origin!"

"In addition, there are several Techniques within that I have never seen."

"It appears the key lies in these Techniques. If I can get them under control, I’ll be able to craft similar Divine Power Introductions, and might even push my research into Divine Power Seeds a step further!"

Luo Chen’s face showed a pensive look as his mind gradually sank into the Golden Spear Mark.

With his repeated, precise stimulation, all manner of reactions from the Golden Spear Mark entered his view.

The corresponding Technique responses were likewise recorded one by one by Luo Chen.

In the process, Luo Chen even gained a preliminary understanding of this Divine Power, Soldier Realm Torrent.

...

Time flowed on; a year passed in the blink of an eye.

Though the Su Ling Sect lay within the jurisdiction of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, in truth their mountain gates were vastly far apart.

Even with a True Monarch’s carriage such as the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Palace, it still took a full year, without activating it at full power, just to enter their territory.

The Mystic Realm was truly enormous.

To say nothing of the Youxuan Continent—even the Domain governed by the Nine Great Saint Sects covered far more than tens of millions of li.

As Master Hong Zhan had said earlier, the supposedly "short" travelling time was in fact anything but short.

So afterward, when they gathered a few more times, everyone also sought out a quiet environment to carry out their final cultivation.

On this day.

Inside a secret chamber.

Tie Ma True Master was cultivating when he suddenly sensed an abnormality in the surrounding Spirit Qi.

He was cultivating the Taiyi Geng Metal Transformation Mysterious Chapter as well, which required him to absorb vast amounts of metal-attribute spiritual energy.

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that the Outer World Spirit Qi had become agitated, and the metal-attribute spiritual energy in particular was far more active.

Perplexed, he walked out of the Quiet Room and rose into the air.

He saw that not far away, Master Helan and Master Liting had somehow also come out at some point, and were staring solemnly at the sky.

Seeing him emerge, the two did not speak, merely nodded in greeting.

Tie Ma True Master immediately looked up at the sky. There was a man standing upright in midair, silently gazing all around.

"It’s Elder Ancient Wood. Could it be that this anomaly was caused by him?"

"No!"

"That direction—is that where Xuan Luo resides?"

Following Elder Ancient Wood’s line of sight, Tie Ma True Master was shocked to discover that the source of the agitation in the Heaven and Earth Qi was actually Xuan Luo!

Moreover, as weapons were manifesting from the void and the grand trend of Heaven and Earth surged, he already understood that this was not a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator controlling Heaven and Earth Qi of the same Attributes, but rather a technique that drove a portion of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi itself to move.

Divine Power!

"Could it be that Xuan Luo accidentally activated in advance the Divine Power Introduction that Master left to him? If that’s the case, how will he protect himself in the Demon Suppression Trial?"

Tie Ma True Master’s face was full of concern.

But seeing the look of both shock and delight on Elder Ancient Wood’s face, it was clearly not that situation.

In other words...

"Could it be that Xuan Luo has truly mastered that one Divine Power move, Soldier Realm Torrent?"

Just as Tie Ma True Master’s emotions surged like the tide, in the void, the first waves appeared!

The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi surged, and countless blades and weapons followed some kind of Consciousness to manifest into form, condensing into a vast torrent, with a momentum to roll forward and crush everything in its path.

This momentum had been accumulating for a long time, yet had nowhere to be released.

Elder Ancient Wood made his move.

He casually raised his hand, and a Token floated up.

As he cast stream after stream of Dao Law Methods, the Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Palace shook with a thunderous roar. From each Array there arose an immense suction, which actually drew in and dissolved the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in the void one strand at a time.

After finishing all this, Elder Ancient Wood’s lips moved soundlessly, as though transmitting a message to someone.

Then he descended.

Tie Ma True Master clasped his hands and bowed; Master Helan and the other also did the same.

Master Hong Zhan had long since come out as well, his expression full of shock and doubt.

Elder Ancient Wood acted as though he had not seen him, bypassed him, and came to stand before Yaoxi.

"You truly have taken in a good disciple!"

With this single sentence, he gave his endorsement.

Yaoxi True Master’s expression was complicated; she did not know what to say.

At the same time.

Inside the secret chamber.

Luo Chen slowly withdrew his Divine Perception. Looking at his empty palm, he sank into contemplation.

That move Soldier Realm Torrent just now had not been triggered by the Divine Power Introduction left behind by Elder Tian Ge.

In order to study the Technique contained within it, he had actually reversed it in a counter-current state, pushing it back step by step, dissolving it entirely.

The anomaly just now had merely been the Divine Power he himself had cast.

He had already learned this move!

And as for the Technique for crafting Divine Power Introductions, he had also grasped a few key points.

Luo Chen’s mind stirred. His left hand’s fingers joined like a sword, and in the center of his right palm he began to carve slowly yet firmly.

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, a Golden Spear Mark slowly emerged.

Although it was not very stable, with large amounts of Qi Power constantly leaking out, in essence it was already no different from what Elder Tian Ge had left him before.

Seeing this, Luo Chen closed his hand around it, letting out a low, soft laugh.

"Truly, one wore out iron shoes in vain seeking it, only to obtain it without effort."

"The direction has been found!"

"As long as I find the Gold Erosion Text from that time and use this kind of Technique, I will be able to carve out Divine Power Seeds!"

Chuckling softly, Luo Chen rose to his full height, walked out of the secret chamber, and pushed open the Palace Gate of his residence.

Outside the door.

Figures stood in a row. Faced with Luo Chen, spirited and high-spirited with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, everyone’s expression was complex.

Yaoxi walked out, and all the complicated emotions on her face finally turned into a look of pure gratification.

"Xuan Luo, congratulations!"
