Chapter 1995 - 1860: Creating a Mystical Skill

Chapter 1995: Chapter 1860: Creating a Mystical Skill

The human body is like the universe, each acupoint is akin to a star, emitting dazzling light.

Ye Fan sat cross-legged in the Dong Mansion, the Holy Embryo Illusion within his 360 acupoints appeared solemnly, ceaselessly chanting scriptures.

His body underwent earth-shattering changes, with the Life and Death Qi circulating continuously, mingling yet distinct, forming a peculiar cycle.

"The ultimate in life is death, the ultimate in death is life, life and death depend on each other, mutually rooted, cycling endlessly, going on and on, never ceasing!"

Ye Fan gained a trace of enlightenment, understanding the power of life and death more thoroughly.

One life, one death, mutually rooted, endlessly cycling, causing Ye Fan’s body to flash with various lights, one moment qi and blood surged like a vast ocean, the next moment death qi surged like the Death God.

"Puff!"

Suddenly, Ye Fan’s expression changed, he spat out a mouthful of blood, clearly suffering an injury.

"Ye Fan, are you alright?"

The peacock was the first to react, anxiously asking from outside the cave.

It did not enter, knowing that Ye Fan’s creation of his Xuan Technique would be extremely fierce and couldn’t be interrupted by any movement, otherwise, it might fail completely.

"I’m fine."

Ye Fan’s voice was calm, he knew that the Xuan Technique he created was too overpowering and had injured himself.

It seemed the Xuan Technique was not yet perfect and needed further modifications.

This was also a normal phenomenon; if it could be achieved in one go, it would not be a top-notch Xuan Technique. Any Mystical Skill had undergone countless refinements to finally take shape.

He was not discouraged nor worried; he had plenty of time, creating his own Xuan Technique at just over twenty years old, he dared not claim to be the first but was certainly a rare existence.

Elder Xuan was right, he couldn’t rely on anyone, he must walk his own path and create his own technique.

If he only cultivated the Nine Heavens Profound Skill, while he might ultimately reach the Quasi-Emperor Peak, it would be very difficult to prove the Dao.

No Great Emperor ever climbed to the top by following the path of predecessors; they all created the Xuan Technique most suitable for themselves.

Life and Death Qi, endlessly cycling!

Ye Fan sat cross-legged again, continuing to create his own Xuan Technique. He believed that with Life and Death Qi, he would create an unmatched Mystical Skill.

It was unknown how long passed, after countless failures, Ye Fan finally established the First Level of the Xuan Technique.

Though it had no name yet and was not completely created, he was already very satisfied.

This Xuan Technique was incredibly fierce, without any consideration for realms below the True Qi Realm, starting from the Holy Embryo Realm.

However, it abandoned the process of condensing the Holy Embryo, forming the Dantian into a rotating Tai Chi of Life and Death Qi.

This Xuan Technique could only be cultivated by him; no other person could succeed, it was truly unique.

Break and establish!

Not cultivating the Holy Embryo, only cultivate the self; this could be said to be a great initiative, overturning any previous Xuan Technique.

However, he still couldn’t cultivate this Xuan Technique now, because he needed to preserve his Holy Embryo to face the imminent crisis.

A Mystical Skill shimmered above his sea of consciousness like dazzling stars!

"Boom!"

An overwhelming momentum emitted from him, instantly blasting the stone blocking the cave entrance into powder.

"Swish!"

He rushed out of the cave like a ray of flowing light, standing above the broken Star Fragment, with an astonishing aura.

"Is he about to break through?"

The peacock was shocked, quickly waking Bai Yan wolf and rebellious Dragon to prepare for the arrival of the heavenly tribulation.

"Holy$%..., he’s really about to break through, quick, run!"

Seeing Ye Fan’s state, Bai Yan wolf’s expression changed drastically, hurriedly urging rebellious Dragon and the peacock to flee.

It knew well how terrifying Ye Fan’s heavenly tribulation was, once caught within, even with its proficiency in the Thunderclap Treasure Skill, it might struggle to resist.

Ye Fan also felt his realm could no longer be suppressed, the creation of part of the Xuan Technique unexpectedly led to a significant elevation of his mental realm, and consequently, his strength finally broke through to the Lord Realm Peak.

In fact, his strength had long been able to break through, only his mental realm had not kept pace, hence he had always remained stagnant.

This time through creating the Xuan Technique, his mental realm finally underwent a sublimation, and consequently, his strength also rose naturally, breaking through to the Lord Realm Peak.

"Ha!"

Unable to suppress it any longer, Ye Fan let out a loud shout, fully unleashing his energy, punching towards the high sky, the fierce Punch Ray piercing the heavens.

"Boom!"

At this instant, heavenly punishment erupted, violently to an unbelievable degree, too dazzling, resembling countless star seas descending, inundating the place.

Ye Fan directly vanished, swallowed by the star sea, the entire Star Domain buried in Divine Radiance, unable to see a trace of him.

Innumerable thunderbolts and endless tribulations intertwined, with Taiyin, solar, Five Elements, chaos, and other heavenly tribulations, countless in type, all greatest and most terrifying thunder tribulations.

Amidst the terrifying brilliance, stars started to explode, transforming into blinding light, yet in the heavenly tribulation, merely counted as a few splashes, unable to cause major waves.

Ye Fan expected the heavenly tribulation to be fierce, but didn’t anticipate it to be so excessive, even strong as his bodily form showed streaks of blood marks, joints creaking.

This was the bone refining and marrow stripping heavenly punishment, tempering every piece of flesh, truly aimed to break bones for reconstruction, the heavenly tribulation was too overbearing.

"Kid, you’re too much!"

Bai Yan wolf cursed, Ye Fan’s heavenly tribulation was too vast, though it fled first, still couldn’t escape Ye Fan’s heavenly tribulation range, struck such that it cried and yelled.

"Is this... still a heavenly tribulation?"

The Golden Divine Dragon stared blankly, then unfolded its Dragon Soaring Miles speed, transforming into flowing light rushing out of the heavenly tribulation.

"I run, I run, I run run run..."

The rebellious Dragon was also struck and kept howling, his entire body pitch black.

Yet, it couldn’t resist and could only endure, or else it would surely summon its own heavenly tribulation.

As a Divine Beast, its heavenly tribulation is quite terrifying, though not comparable to Ye Fan’s heavenly tribulation, it couldn’t withstand it at this moment.

"Heaven Concealing Array!"

Forced, the Bai Yan wolf had to deploy a few array platforms, setting up the Heaven Concealing Array, to escape heavenly punishment, or it would be roasted.

The Peacock immediately burrowed into the Heaven Concealing Array. At this moment, its beautiful feathers were curled and charred, utterly miserable.

"Haha, hahaha..."

Seeing the Peacock’s embarrassing state, the Bai Yan wolf couldn’t help but laugh gloatingly.

The Peacock glared at it, shook its body, and the singed feathers immediately fell off, soon replaced by new colorful feathers.

"Awoo... it’s painful for the Dragon!"

"Damn it, it fried me to death."

"I’m roasted, Lord Long has been roasted!"

The Golden Divine Dragon kept howling, its body indeed emitting the aroma of cooked meat, its scales curled, blood dripping.

In the end, it couldn’t escape Ye Fan’s heavenly tribulation range and stumbled directly into the Heaven Concealing Array set by Bai Yan wolf, dodging a disaster.

This heavenly tribulation, although fierce, didn’t last long, as it wasn’t a tribulation for becoming a Saint.

Soon, the heavenly tribulation disappeared and the universe returned to tranquility.

Ye Fan stood proudly in the starry sky, his garments fluttering like a Banished Immortal, ethereal and transcendent.

"Oh!"

Ye Fan saw that the star fragment below hadn’t been destroyed in the heavenly tribulation. Although many places were struck dead, turning into scorched earth, it remained intact.

"Whoosh!"

He descended onto the star fragment, measuring the piece step by step, and obtained an unnamed essence of Tao, with a Heaven and Earth Tao Mark silently appearing above his dantian, flickering like a dragon.

"So...so...so powerful!" the Golden Divine Dragon stuttered, its eyes wide open.

"This is the Human Race’s body, seemingly weak yet with limitless potential!" the Peacock sighed.

"Let’s go, we can be on our way."

Ye Fan and his group left this enigmatic star fragment, retracing their path, quickly returning to the Human Clan’s Ancient Star Path, continuing their journey.

According to the Heavenly Stele’s instructions, seven or eight more nodes would lead to the Human Race’s Ninth City, which Ye Fan eagerly anticipated.

Nine symbolizes the utmost odd number, surely extraordinary opportunities await.

Via the altar, they traversed five or six lifeless ancient stars, encountering other trialists. Some trialists attempted attacks but were all repelled by the Golden Divine Dragon and Peacock.

On this day, they arrived at the seventh lifeless ancient star.

It was dusk; the sun left a touch of golden sunset on the horizon, imbuing the entire ancient star with a layer of gold.

Each ancient star contained an altar for crossing voids, which required discovery.

Upon arriving on this ancient star, Ye Fan extended his divine consciousness, covering the entire ancient star.

At this moment, Ye Fan sensed a similarly powerful divine consciousness surging like a tide, startling him.

For he felt a familiarity with this divine consciousness.

"Ye Fan, is that you?"

Just as Ye Fan hesitated, a familiar voice came from afar, like a bird singing in a valley, crisp and melodious.

With the voice, a girl enveloped in holy divine light flew in from afar, like Lingbo Fairy, ethereal and immortal.

"Wow, Goddess! If I could win over such a beauty, I’d abandon the True Dragon Body to become human," the Golden Divine Dragon ogled, showing his scoundrel-like demeanor.

"Divine Lady Tongtong?"

The Bai Yan wolf was astonished.

Unlike the rebellious Dragon and Peacock, it was quite familiar with Divine Lady Tongtong, but didn’t expect to encounter her here.

"You know this lovely lady? Hurry, introduce her to me," the Golden Divine Dragon said to the Bai Yan wolf.

"Spare it, she’s here for Ye," the Bai Yan wolf rolled its eyes at the rebellious Dragon, saying, "She’s likely here to verify Ye’s identity."

"Tongtong, why are you here?" Ye Fan asked, surprised to encounter Tongtong here.

"You’ve become the universe’s adversary; how could I not come?"

Tongtong stopped, standing face-to-face with Ye Fan, her expression deeply complex.

She harbored deep feelings for Ye Fan, yet Ye Fan hadn’t reciprocated her pure and intense love. Facing Ye Fan again, her heart was filled with mixed emotions.

"Cough, cough..."

Ye Fan smiled bitterly. He was well aware of his current situation. After his tribulation, the Peacock had explained the events occurring on the Ancient Star Path, but he had no option.

"I just want to know one thing, are you truly a Demon Clan spy?"

Tongtong’s eyes were like autumn water, calmly questioning.
