Chapter 244: Second Style of the God Slaying Three Styles, Withering Style (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
[48 years old. You cultivated to the Seven Fiend Martial Saint Realm.]
[60 years old. You perfected the Seven Fiend Realm and did not absorb the fiendish qi of the Wind, Ice, and Lightning.]
[At this point, you’ve searched for all kinds of cultivation methods and treasures that can resist the lightning tribulation.]
[After much consideration, you chose to cultivate the Indestructible Vajra
Divine Technique and endured unimaginable pain.]
[100 years old. After 40 years of bitter cultivation, you have cultivated the Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique to the Perfected Third Level. Your physical strength has increased greatly.]
[At the same time, you found a divine weapon called the Lightning Avoidance
Umbrella. It can weaken the power of the lightning tribulation.]
[To be safe, you’re not in a hurry to transcend the tribulation. You’re preparing to break through to the Fourth Level of the Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique before breaking through.]
[111 years old. You are cultivating in seclusion. The Reincarnation Hall has opened, and your secret has been exposed. A large number of spirit beast bloodline practitioners and Weapon Masters have appeared to snatch your Essence Soul Bead.]
[At this moment, Yu Niang appeared and transformed into an ice phoenix to save you and escape to the outer sea.]
[A month later, the spirit beast bloodline user and Weapon Master appear.] [In desperation, you broke through to the Divine Power Realm.]
[The Divine Power Heavenly Tribulation appeared. All those who approached were covered by the Heavenly Tribulation and attacked. The spirit beast bloodline user and the Weapon Master watched from afar.]
[Even with the help of the Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique and the Lightning Avoidance Umbrella, you were still severely injured after withstanding 27 Divine Firmament Heavenly Lightning.]
[However, the lightning tribulation did not dissipate. The Purple Firmament Divine Lightning appeared again.]
[In your despair, you finally comprehended the true meaning of the second move of the Heavenly Saber Slaughter Divine Scripture, the Withering Style.]
[You slashed out with your saber and exhausted 3,800 years of your lifespan to kill all the spirit beast bloodline practitioners and Weapon Masters who were chasing after you. The distant spectators were shocked and fled in all directions.]
[When the lightning tribulation descended, you died on the spot and your soul dispersed.]
“If I don’t absorb the Three Wonders fiendish qi of the Wind, Ice, and
Lightning, I’ll encounter an even stronger heavenly tribulation?”
“No wonder martial arts are declining.”
“Could it be that this world doesn’t allow martial artists to reach the Divine Power Realm? Or… is it only targeted at cheat transmigrators like me?” Han Zhao frowned slightly.
According to the information in the simulation, he had to transcend the Divine Power Heavenly Tribulation before the 111th Reincarnation Hall opened.
Otherwise, if his lie was exposed, a large number of experts would snatch his Essence Soul Bead.
He had never thought of throwing away the Essence Soul Bead.
As for the simulation, Han Zhao could only affect the initial period of the simulation.
As time passed, his actions in the simulation were based on his own interests. He was no longer affected by the “him” outside the simulation.
Otherwise, Han Zhao could completely let the simulation cultivate various powerful offensive martial techniques and not be in a hurry to increase his realm.
In most cases, he could choose his memories after the simulation and directly obtain martial techniques.
Han Zhao looked at himself from an omniscient perspective. In the simulation, he did not know that he was in a simulation and was living a person’s life. He would naturally think of ways to increase his realm and seize all opportunities to break through.
If Han Zhao’s current strength was in a situation where he would definitely die if he encountered someone from the Nine Nether Mansion, then no matter how much he hinted, he would not look for a snake-level expert from the Nine Nether Mansion in the simulation.
[The simulation is over. You can choose one of the following.]
[1: Obtain Trait (Not Selectable)] [2: Obtained attribute points]
[3: Obtain any part of the life experience.] [Current Balance: o taels of gold]
“Let me see how strong the Withering Style is.”
“l choose option three.” Han Zhao pondered for a moment and chose option three.
As the choice ended, an image appeared in front of him like a movie.
Soon, the scene of him fighting with the Snake-level expert, Xing Chen, appeared.
Xing Chen’s main body was actually a scorpion spirit. Before he died, he swung his scorpion tail and broke his Vajra Protection. A large amount of poison was injected into his body.
In order to conserve his mental strength, he only roughly went through the battle process.
The scene kept fast-forwarding. Soon, it was time for him to cultivate the Lesser Divine Powers of Three Points Origin Returning Qi, Connate Astral Qi, Three Wonders Arrow, and Infinite Mountain and River.
However, these cultivation methods were cultivation methods that he was familiar with and had already been cultivated to the peak. Moreover, they were all directly related to his physique, Internal Force, and true qi. Even if he obtained his memories, he could not skip the cultivation process through his memories like the Purgatory Style.
Most importantly, cultivating a Lesser Divine Power required a treasure called the Seed of Divine Power.
Moreover, without the fiendish qi of the Martial Saint Realm as the foundation, it was impossible to master a Lesser Divine Power.
After a while, the cultivation method of the Infinite Mountain and River appeared in his memory.
A large number of detailed memories about cultivation swarmed over.
Infinite Mountain and River (Before Entry Level, Cannot be Upgraded; Cultivation conditions not met: Niountain Splitting Saber Technique deduced to the Perfection of the Sixth Level, Heavenly River Rain Overturning Sword Technique cultivated to the Perfection of the Sixth Level)
Han Zhao quickly memorized this part.
Then, it came to the scene of him cultivating the Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique.
He slowed down his memory. Soon, the Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique cultivation method, including the incantation, mental cultivation method, visualization diagram, and other details were deeply imprinted in his mind.
Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique (First Level Entry Level, Cannot be
Upgraded; Cultivation conditions not met: Vajra Technique cultivated to the Perfection of the Fourth Level)
Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique (Second Level Entry Level…)
Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique (Third Level Entry Level…)
The scene continued. After skipping through a lot of trivial cultivation memories, the scene arrived at the scene of him finding the Lightning Avoidance Umbrella divine weapon.
There were still decades before that divine weapon appeared. He remembered the appearance and location of the divine weapon, so he did not continue to remember it.
The scene kept changing. In the end, it was time to transcend the tribulation.
On the isolated island overseas, a large dark cloud suddenly gathered in the clear blue sky. The heavy and oppressive atmosphere seemed to freeze the space.
Rumble!
White light flickered in the dark clouds, and there were sounds of lightning.
Even though he was only watching the memory scene, Han Zhao felt his body tremble unconsciously.
It was hard to imagine how he had withstood 27 bolts of lightning.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
White-gold lightning pillars with diameters that were thick enough to fill a water tank landed with a bang. The world-shaking bang shook Han Zhao’s mind, and the world seemed to be enveloped by white light.
The Three Points Origin Returning Qi, Connate Astral Qi, Three Wonders Arrow, Infinite Mountain and River, and various Lesser Divine Powers were used one after another to fight the lightning.
Boom!
As the third last lightning tribulation broke through his Vajra Body, the last two lightning tribulations increased his injuries.
“Rumble…
As the Divine Firmament Heavenly Lightning dissipated, the dark clouds above his head quickly expanded by ten times. Purple light kept flickering in the clouds.
Before the lightning tribulation landed, Han Zhao felt his entire body go numb and weak.
Seeing that he could not survive this lightning tribulation, despair, fear, pain, and various other negative emotions surged into his heart. An indescribable feeling filled his entire body. Under the threat of death, he finally comprehended the true meaning of the Withering Style.
“All of you, die! Withering Style!’
Looking at his enemies watching from afar, Han Zhao directly launched a suicidal attack.
This slash contained 3,800 years of lifespan and all the Dharmic powers of the Divine Power Realm.
Within a hundred miles, no one was unscathed.
“Ah!” Han Zhao screamed and woke up from the memories. The feeling of having all his lifespan and Dharma power extracted was ten times more painful than cultivating the Vajra Technique.
God Slaying Three Styles—Withering Style (Small Mastery 20%; Minimum usage requirement: Dual cultivation, Three Fiend Martial Saint Realm; Forcefully using the Withering Style below the Martial Saint Realm will consume 10% of one’s lifespan at once. The more lifespan consumed, the stronger the might of the saber technique..)
