Chapter 1406 - 858: Infinite Growth, Zhao Tianxing’s Path to Ascension

The strategic-level martial arts that appeared before Zhang Yu were the "Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Technique."

Zhang Yu quickly glanced through the contents of this Cultivation Technique, his eyes gradually lighting up.

This was a martial arts technique that was very useful to him.

"The ’Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Technique’ can absorb others’ mana and essence blood to replenish one’s own mana and Qi-Blood."

"However, compared to its strategic-level positioning and value, this method of replenishing magic and essence is not the core mechanism of this technique."

"The most special aspect of the ’Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Technique’ is that after absorbing others’ mana and essence blood, it can increase the cultivator’s maximum mana and physical strength."

Inwardly, Zhang Yu remarked, "Although the ratio is quite low, around 10:1, where devouring 10 units of mana raises the maximum mana by 1 unit, as long as you have the resources, you can quickly enhance your mana and physical strength in a short period."

"However, if it’s only like this, the effect of this technique is limited to rapidly recovering mana and healing injuries, along with fast development."

"And if the basic attributes have already reached the current boundary, then it would merely serve for healing and mana recovery."

"For a strategic-level technique... it seems somewhat weak."

But upon reading the last few pages of the technique, Zhang Yu suddenly understood that neither healing nor rapid development were the ultimate goals of the "Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Technique."

Looking at the subsequent plans of the technique, Zhang Yu saw that its goal was to surpass the current boundaries of mana and physical strength through the act of "devouring."

This is termed "super-limit development."

And the ultimate goal of the "Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Technique" is called "infinite development," which means unlimited enhancement of one’s max mana and physical strength limits.

According to the developers, in the latest super-limit development experiment, the tester successfully sustained beyond the boundaries of mana and physical strength for 21 seconds.

The developers estimate that in about 50 years, the commercialization of infinite development can be achieved.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Yu was genuinely amazed.

"The boundaries of mana and physical strength... these two fundamental attributes’ limits have been measured and determined by the Ten Great Sects. "

"These limits can indeed be endlessly surpassed?!"

"No wonder it’s a strategic-level technique. If super-limit development can be maintained long enough, this technique would surely be town-level."

"And if it truly reaches the stage of infinite development, then wouldn’t this technique be Heavenly Opening level!"

The thought that he might be testing a future Heavenly Opening technique made Zhang Yu slightly excited.

Fu Ji also exclaimed in surprise, "It’s the prototype of a Heavenly Creation Skill? If our testing performance is good, would they invite us for future updates? Wouldn’t we have the chance to score a Heavenly Creation Skill for free! "

"Zhang Yu, we’re hitting it big! I told you respecting Bu Yingshu would pay off. Otherwise, such opportunities would have long been claimed, leaving none for us."

The Kao Sect Avatar commented, "Infinite development?! My Great Ten Thousand Laws Sect’s Immortal Dao Technology is indeed Kunxu’s best!"

But amidst the excitement of the three, Zhan Xian’s voice suddenly broke in, pouring cold water on Zhang Yu, Fu Ji, and the Kao Sect Avatar.

Zhan Xian said, "Super-limit development, infinite development, surpassing the basic data limits of the realm, similar Immortal Dao Technology is being researched by all Ten Great Sects, but so far... there hasn’t been any substantial achievement."

The Kao Sect Avatar retorted indignantly, "That’s because the other sects are all useless! My Great Wanfa’s Immortal Dao Technology is the world’s best! Super-limit development has been achieved; can’t you see infinite development has been claimed to be completed within 50 years?"

Zhan Xian sighed and said, "I’m aware that even 100 years ago, people claimed it would take another 50 years to achieve infinite development."

Zhang Yu paused and looked at the "Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Technique," saying, "Do you mean... are they deceiving us? Faking results for research funding?"

Zhan Xian replied, "Not necessarily deceit. Infinite development is indeed a key technology that all Ten Great Sects are exploring. Some researchers genuinely believe they can succeed, while others simply aim for more resources and funding, but there’s a lot of depth here."

"But the reason it hasn’t succeeded, as my ancestor mentioned... some Immortals believe that the basic data limits for each realm might have been set by a Taoist Inheritance."

"A Taoist Inheritance? Are you saying it’s artificial? What kind of Taoist Inheritance would that be?"

Zhang Yu was again taken aback; he never thought that the realm’s data limits he took for granted could have been set by someone.

Zhan Xian answered, "It’s only speculation, but it’s said that such a Taoist Inheritance hasn’t been truly discovered yet, so it might be true or false."

"Thus, the major sects have never completely abandoned the exploration and research of infinite development technology, always investing resources into it."

At this moment, Huang Niu suddenly spoke up, "Since the Opening of Heaven and Earth, there have been countless strong individuals in the world, each changing the world with their will, some even setting down Taoist Inheritance."

"Numerous Taoist Inheritances, even if they’ve lost their masters, have long reshaped the world beyond recognition, never returning to its original form."

Although the anticipation of the "Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Technique" reaching the Heavenly level was extinguished, this technique still held great allure for Zhang Yu.
