134: Chapter 134 The Seventh Level of the Prison Tower!
At this moment, whether in Body Refining or Soul Refining, Chen Zhiwen had already reached the Peak Grandmaster realm, especially in the way of Soul Refining.
Thanks to the talent of the Indestructible Dark Clan and the enhancement of the Soul Tempering Undying Scripture, his purity and strength even surpassed that of an ordinary Great Grandmaster.
Cultivating all three paths allowed his combat power to reach an unprecedented height.
However, he knew deep down that to truly step into the Great Grandmaster realm, he still needed to comprehend his own "Extreme Dao." The Extreme Dao of Qi Refining and Soul Refining still needed time to settle, but in Body Refining, he had been lingering at the Peak Grandmaster for a long time and had faintly touched upon a threshold.
"It is time."
Chen Zhiwen whispered to himself, his figure flickering, and he appeared before the prison suppressing pagoda.
This ancient and majestic pagoda was no longer a mere place of trial in his eyes, but rather the best place to hone himself and explore the Extreme Dao. With a thought, his entire body was enveloped by the soft light emitted by the prison suppressing pagoda, and he vanished from the spot instantly.
When he reappeared, Chen Zhiwen was already on the first floor of the prison suppressing pagoda. This was a vast Void Realm, where three phantoms with the same appearance as him, holding long swords and exuding the Body Refining Aura of an Early-stage Master, charged at him.
"Too slow." Chen Zhiwen shook his head slightly. He was no longer the youth who had struggled on the first floor of the prison suppressing pagoda.
He didn't even draw his sword, merely swaying his body to weave through the three phantoms like a ghost. Every dodge contained a subtle utilization of the Law of space, and every punch carried peerless power. In just a breath's time, the three phantoms dissolved into starlight amidst unwilling roars, merging into Chen Zhiwen's body.
His Body Refining cultivation did not stagnate at all, continuing to climb.
Second floor, third floor...
Chen Zhiwen advanced like a hot knife through butter, as if taking a leisurely stroll. Those phantoms that once made him exhaust all his efforts and even suffer injuries multiple times were now fragile and vulnerable before him.
The Physical Body Origin and talent imprint of the Indestructible Dark Clan completely ignited the potential of his "Saint Ancient Emperor Technique," bringing his physical strength and recovery to an unimaginable level.
He didn't even need to deliberately defend; the phantoms' attacks landing on him only stirred up faint ripples, unable to shake him in the slightest.
He did not stop at all, moving upwards. Each time he defeated a phantom, the starlight they transformed into carried a trace of pure Body Refining Origin, merging into his limbs and bones, making his Physical Body tougher and more solid than before.
His bones began to emit a faint jade-like luster, his muscle lines became more fluid and explosive, and as his blood surged, one could faintly hear the roar of a river.
When he stepped into the sixth floor, he faced three phantoms at the Peak Grandmaster level.
These phantoms' attacks were sharp and precise, coordinated perfectly, enough to make any Peak Grandmaster Body Cultivator fall into a bitter battle. However, Chen Zhiwen just smiled slightly. He drew the black gilded light sword from his waist, the blade shimmering with deep cold light.
"Hegemonic Sword Intent, slash!"
With one slash, without any flair, it contained a hegemonic Aura that looked down on the world and reigned supreme.
The sword light was like black lightning, instantly tearing through the Void Realm and enveloping the three phantoms. The phantoms didn't even have time to scream before they were shredded by this peerless Hegemonic Sword Intent, turning into starlight that filled the sky and merged into Chen Zhiwen's body once more.
Thus, all the trials of the first six floors of the prison suppressing pagoda were, before Chen Zhiwen, like paper, broken through in one breath with overwhelming force!
His Body Refining cultivation, after continuously absorbing the Origin of the six floors of phantoms, had reached the limit of the Peak Grandmaster, only one step away from the Great Grandmaster realm.
He could clearly feel that his Physical Body had reached Perfection, but that crucial "Extreme Dao" realization was still separated by a thin film, impossible to touch.
"The seventh floor should be different."
Chen Zhiwen took a deep breath and stepped into the seventh floor of the prison suppressing pagoda.
The scene before him was indeed completely different from the first six floors. This was a purely void space; there was no heaven or earth, no boundaries, only deep darkness and an indescribable sense of oppression.
The moment Chen Zhiwen stepped in, three figures slowly condensed in the void darkness.
They looked exactly like Chen Zhiwen, but the Aura each emitted had reached the Early-stage Master level of Body Refining!
Moreover, their Aura was older, as if coming from ancient times, carrying a heavy sense of history.
"Is this the trial of the seventh floor?" Chen Zhiwen's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of excitement surged in his heart.
He could feel that these three phantoms were completely different from the stiff reflections on the first six floors.
They not only possessed the cultivation of an Early-stage Master, but also faintly carried a trace of "consciousness" fluctuations, as well as a subtle mastery of ancient Body Refining Divine Ability.
The three phantoms didn't waste any words. The moment they condensed, they charged at Chen Zhiwen like three ancient war gods.
The phantom on the left attacked first. As its figure flickered, dense ancient runes appeared around its body. As the runes flowed, it punched out violently, bringing up a ripple of spatial distortion. It was the famously renowned Body Refining Divine Ability from ancient times — 【Void-Splitting Divine Fist】!
This punch was not just pure power; it contained the mystery of tearing space and shattering everything.
The phantom on the right followed closely behind. On the surface of its body, a dark golden luster appeared, its muscles knotted as if covered by a layer of divine metal.
It pressed its palms together, then suddenly spread them apart. An invisible wave of Qi exploded with it as the center. Wherever it passed, the Void Realm collapsed inch by inch. This was the 【Indestructible Golden Body Shock】 passed down from even more ancient times!
This was a hegemonic Divine Ability that used physical strength as a Foundation to shatter everything.
The central phantom appeared more composed.
It didn't rush to attack but bent its knees slightly. The Qi and blood around its body churned like a volcanic eruption, then it leaped violently, drawing a perfect arc in the air. With the momentum of splitting heaven and earth, it delivered a heavy elbow strike directly towards Chen Zhiwen's head!
This move was called 【Mountain-Splitting Divine Elbow】. It looked simple and unadorned, but in reality, it perfectly combined physical power with the momentum of heaven and earth. With one strike, it could split mountains and break cliffs, or even shatter space.
Three Body Refining Great Grandmasters, each unleashing terrifying Body Refining Divine Ability originating from ancient or even older times, attacked Chen Zhiwen with thunderous momentum from three directions!
Chen Zhiwen didn't dare to be careless, his eyes instantly becoming sharp. This was the real challenge!
He chose not to clash head-on but flickered his figure, executing the movement technique recorded in the "Saint Ancient Emperor Technique," like a golden lightning bolt, instantly avoiding the sharp edge of the Void-Splitting Divine Fist.
However, the wave of the Indestructible Golden Body Shock followed closely. Chen Zhiwen felt a massive force like a collapsing mountain attack him. Even with his current physical strength, he couldn't help but grunt, being forced back several steps.
"So strong!" Chen Zhiwen exclaimed in his heart, but his eyes burned with fierce Battle Intent.
He steadied his figure, and the black gilded light sword in his hand suddenly unsheathed! The sword light was like a Dragon, carrying a peerless Hegemonic intent, meeting the central phantom's Mountain-Splitting Divine Elbow.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang through the Void Realm, sparks flying everywhere. Chen Zhiwen's sword collided fiercely with the phantom's elbow, and a massive force traveled from the blade, vibrating his arm until it went numb. The phantom's physical strength was beyond imagination, actually able to withstand his Hegemonic Sword Intent without retreating at all.
At the same time, the other two phantoms attacked again. The Void-Splitting Divine Fist, carrying the power of distorted space, struck directly at Chen Zhiwen's chest;
The Indestructible Golden Body Shock turned into waves of sound attacks, attempting to shatter his Divine Soul.
"Well come!" Chen Zhiwen let out a long shout, his Battle Intent boiling. He no longer held back, displaying all the skills he currently possessed.
His Physical Body, under the tempering of the "Saint Ancient Emperor Technique," was incomparably tough. Even facing the Void-Splitting Divine Fist, he only shuddered, dissipating most of the tearing force.
His Qi Refining cultivation, although not deliberately displayed, had thick True Qi nourishing his Physical Body every moment, taking his explosive power to the next level.
And the power of a Soul Refining Peak Grandmaster allowed his perception to reach the extreme, capable of clearly capturing a trace of flaws in the three phantoms' attacks and reacting quickly.
His movement was like the wind, his sword light like lightning. Sometimes clashing head-on with the Void-Splitting Divine Fist, using physical power to shatter space;
Sometimes breaking moves with his sword, shredding the sound waves of the Indestructible Golden Body Shock; sometimes using clever force to neutralize the heavy blows of the Mountain-Splitting Divine Elbow, seeking opportunities to counterattack.
