Immortality from Taming Elephant

Chapter 558 - 247: No One Knows My Five Divine Techniques, Guicang_3

Cao Ku and Xie Bao completely lost the ability to fight.He slowly looked at the last remaining Hong Zhen, his expression indifferent, his tone calm.

"Now? What do you think?"

Hong Zhen’s expression changed, but as Xu Guang walked, the blood-colored light curtain surrounding him seemed to carry an indescribable terrifying pressure, bearing the momentum of defeating Cao Ku and Xie Bao, almost making him feel like he couldn’t breathe.

Under the gaze of everyone, Hong Zhen seemed unable to withstand the pressure.

"I surrender!"

The crowd was in uproar.

Xu Guang seemed to have anticipated this, the divine light on his body extinguished, he turned and headed out, "From today on, when you see me, avoid me by thirty miles!"

Hong Zhen seemed not to hear, or perhaps he acquiesced.

...

The crowd was in uproar.

No one expected that Xu Guang, who seemingly had lost complete advantage, would suddenly complete a counter-kill, and even his strong point was not fully seen or understood by many spectators.

What was the technique he used in the end?

Transforming into the scorching sun? Manipulating death?

They didn’t even understand why Cao Ku lost the ability to fight, and why Hong Zhen looked scared out of his wits in the end.

Only the true king Tianwu had eyes that glistened brightly.

Five Divine Techniques!

It was the Five Divine Techniques.

Although he couldn’t see Xu Guang’s five Celestial Gates of divine technique, he seemed able to see things in Xu Guang’s divine technique light changes that others couldn’t see.

"This disciple is definitely going to be taken in, can’t wait any longer, disciples with Five Divine Techniques might get snatched away by some old fellow before the challenge ends."

...

After witnessing Xu Guang’s final sword, and hearing his words to Hong Zhen.

Bai Xiaozhu couldn’t help but clench her fists, her eyes widening to the size of beans.

It was a picture perfect beyond her imagination, and it could be imagined that from today on, Xu Guang would become the idol pursued by countless young people in the Three Thousand Cities.

Jiang Zi Yun wasn’t as excited as Bai Xiaozhu; no matter how important the assessment competition was, it was just something internal to the Northern Imperial Academy.

She thought of more things about Xu Guang.

From Chuannan Prefecture to Jiufeng Mountain, from Chifeng Prefecture to Dragon Gate.

Xu Guang had never disappointed anyone.

Zhuge Wuliang’s position was quite forward; as the only person in the First Grade Realm, and still undefeated facing lingzhan expert, he could almost see the true king Tianwu’s face.

Beside him, an elder from the Xuanfeng Demon Hunting Team, Jiang Nanhai, leaned back slightly, his posture relaxed.

"Zhuge, can this Xu Guang be brought into our Demon Hunting Team?"

Zhuge Wuliang shook his head, his eyes showing an unceasing sense of regret.

Regret that Xu Guang wasn’t born fifty years earlier, allowing him to have a duel with him at the same realm.

Also with Five Divine Techniques, even though across the image of the demon mirror, he vaguely felt the changes on Xu Guang.

The Five Divine Techniques are referred to as the Imperial Palace, not simply because the number of divine techniques exceeds ordinary martial artists, but because the seeds of the five divine techniques influence each other, producing many changes that ordinary martial artists are unaware of.

Its mystery, only those with the Five Divine Techniques can experience.

...

Purple Square City.

As the last successor of the Purple Dipper, Helian Huangyue was shocked, she eagerly looked to her senior brother.

"Senior brother, this..."

Zhao Yunshan said nothing, just quietly watching the image projected by the demon mirror.

"Let’s talk about everything when we return from Li Taizhou..."

...

The inspection envoy referee landed, looking around.

"The victor of this battle, Third Grade Xu Guang."

With that said, carrying the severely injured Xie Bao, he left.

Xu Guang turned indifferently, walking out, with General Wei behind him.

"Junior Brother Xu, your beast is injured, you can go above to receive treatment, there’s a Saint’s divine spring."

Xu Guang nodded to the referee, accepting the goodwill.

He was still pondering his fifth divine technique - Gui Cang.

This divine technique is somewhat complex, absorbing all the Power of Death between heaven and earth, able to enhance one’s own Life Force, actively deploying it, could form a blood-colored scorching sun containing the power to bury everything into the abyss.

It sounds not particularly powerful, yet from what Xu Guang currently understands, this divine technique seems somewhat ordinary, at least it shouldn’t have been the top divine technique that troubled him for nearly five years and was slow to comprehend.

However, as comprehension progressed, Xu Guang discovered that the mystery of this divine technique somewhat transcended his imagination.

The Gui Cang divine technique had been growing for several years, although Xu Guang hadn’t comprehended it before, it was consistently growing; after he opened the Earth Gate, the abundant Life Force began to integrate into his body.

Though called Life Force, it was more than just Life Force; besides the physical body, Qi Force, Divine Soul, the Spirit Palace Secret Realm of Qi Refiner, and even the intangible attributes such as luck and insight seemed to fall within the scope of Life Force.

The vast power of life gives him a sense of invincibility.

This no longer just stops within the realm of Martial Dao; it truly began to relate to Qi Refining.

But this seems to be just the most superficial change of the Gui Cang divine technique.

Xu Guang never forgot that this divine technique once, even when not awakened, imprisoned a Divine Soul more powerful than the First Grade Realm, even if the opponent was quite weak.

Perhaps it even hides the secrets of death and reincarnation.

He’s in no hurry about it; the development, exploration, and application of a divine technique always require a lengthy period, especially since Gui Cang has evidently grown; he needs to devote more effort to exploration.

Just like a baby having legs but still needing enough time to adapt to legs and hands, mastering the control of limbs perfectly.

...

Xu Guang didn’t immediately go back to closed cultivation; the challenge competition was a rare grand event for him, breakthrough was important, but witnessing the unparalleled splendor of the world was equally important.

He silently returned behind Jiang Zi Yun, reached out and clasped her hand.

Jiang Zi Yun smiled gently, not startling Bai Xiaozhu.

Maybe because of Xu Guang’s brilliance before, fighting one against three, subsequently, whether Sui Donglai fought desperately against Second Grade master Chu Sui’an, or Xiao Chen’s slight victory over Nie Zhen, their performances were perfect but not astonishing.

Before Sui Donglai’s fight ended, the true king Tianwu had departed.

With the departure of the true king, the inexplicable oppressive atmosphere in the plaza completely vanished, people enthusiastically discussed.

For martial artists, witnessing the duel of two top experts was also a blissful event.

Xu Guang found that the Life Force amassed over the years by the Gui Cang divine technique randomly fortified everything about himself, but the enhancement in insight was... somewhat eccentric...

The degree of improvement was somewhat unbelievable...

Sui Donglai’s opponent Chu Sui’an demonstrated a sword technique called Tenfold Sky Splitting, a first-class sword technique that interweaves space, combining assassination and frontal combat, but just from observing it once, he seemed to vaguely grasp the veins of this sword technique.

He had a feeling that if Chu Sui’an could perform it completely a few more times in front of him, he might be able to initially grasp this sword technique, performing it a few times, bringing it out onto the panel wouldn’t be too difficult.

’The Life Force enhancement from Gui Cang is rather like random attribute enhancement...’

Xu Guang thought to himself.
