518: Chapter 518 Heaven-Defying Comprehension

Ji Wushuang and Liu Luoying's beautiful eyes widened, their lovely faces filled with disbelief.

"This is your secret technique? It seems quite ordinary!" Xiao Chen spread his hands, and his massive Glazed Golden Body rapidly shrank, returning to its original form.

"Senior Gang, don't listen to that kid's nonsense!"

Wan Tianpeng showed a look of disdain, "This Hall Master has never seen anyone who can comprehend an entire Cultivation Technique just by seeing the Moves once!"

An Elder of the Wanxiang Temple chimed in, "Exactly! He clearly used abnormal means to obtain the technique scrolls from within the Gangli Clan!"

Tsk, tsk, tsk!

Xiao Chen couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. These hidden Sects really went to great lengths to save face.

"I thought the Wanxiang Temple would have some profound insights, but who knew they were just a bunch of ignorant fools."

"Little brat, do you have a death wish?" Wan Tianpeng's gaze suddenly turned cold, a glint of chilling light brewing in his palm, his accumulated fury almost overflowing from his body.

"Hall Master, such an arrogant boy who doesn't know the height of the heavens must be taught a harsh lesson!" The Elder behind him clenched his fists indignantly.

"What, just because you haven't seen my basic Comprehension Ability, you call it ignorance? Oh, right, the [Myriad Manifestation Divine Art] that your Wanxiang Temple is so proud of—I seem to know a little bit of that too!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people of the Wanxiang Temple first looked at each other in dismay, then burst into a fit of loud laughter.

"What are you laughing at? Don't you want to see?"

"Playing tricks!"

Wan Tianpeng couldn't help but sneer, leaning back in his seat, "Fine, then perform for us and let this seat broaden his horizons!"

The Legacy of the Myriad Manifestation Divine Art had no technique scrolls at all; it had always been personally taught by Seniors to Juniors. It was impossible for outsiders to learn it.

"Then you'd better watch closely!"

Xiao Chen formed hand seals, his spiritual energy surging throughout his body, forming a five-colored radiance around him. In an instant, his figure split into five, each one identical.

It was precisely the ultimate skill [Myriad Manifestation Clone] that Wan Yuchen had used previously.

"..."

At this moment, the entire Yuntian Holy Realm fell into a dead silence.

In the seating area of the Wanxiang Temple, jaws dropped to the floor, and eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

Wan Tianpeng instantly slammed the table and stood up, his eyes fixed on the five Clones. His throat felt as if something was stuck in it, and he couldn't say a single word.

Ji Wushuang and Liu Luoying's eyes sparkled with starlight, rippling with emotion.

"Old Daoist Tianqi, in your opinion, how much of this kid's ability is believable?" Ancestor of the Gangli Clan looked toward the Ying Clan's seating area, still half-doubting.

"Sixty percent."

"Oh?"

"Although this kind of extreme comprehension is too absurd, the possibility cannot be ruled out. Moreover, the confidentiality of your Gangli Clan and the Wanxiang Temple's techniques is beyond doubt. To reach this level, there's no way an outsider could have stolen the knowledge!"

"Hmm." Ancestor of the Gangli Clan nodded slightly, deeply agreeing.

Meanwhile, in the surrounding seats, millions of Cultivators were engaged in heated arguments with one another.

"Is there really such a clever person in the world? This is too incredible!"

"This is no longer just being clever; it's reaching the pinnacle of comprehension! To be able to derive the technique's mental formula through its Moves!"

"I still don't believe it. If such a person really exists, what kind of Spiritual Root must he have?"

"That's right, even the Chaotic Undying Body can't do this!"

...

Listening to everyone's discussion, Chi Zhongtian's face turned ashen, his heart filled with a maddening jealousy, wishing he could rush up and perform Possession on Xiao Chen.

With a thought from Xiao Chen, the five Clones quickly merged into one.

Performing it for the first time, although it was still a bit unpolished, he could feel that the spiritual energy consumption of this technique was terrifying.

Maintaining five Clone forms simultaneously not only required extremely high Soul strength but also made controlling one's spiritual energy very difficult.

"Xiao Chen, what is your crime!" An angry shout caused the noisy Yuntian Holy Realm to instantly fall quiet.

Xiao Chen followed the sound and glanced at Wan Tianpeng in surprise, "Oh? I really don't know what crime I've committed."

"You secretly learned the unique technique of my hall without the permission of the Wanxiang Temple, and you still don't admit your guilt!"

"What a joke!"

Xiao Chen crossed his arms, showing no fear, "Do I need to secretly learn such a simple and trashy technique? The most laughable thing is that you actually treat it as a Legacy treasure. It's enough to make one's teeth fall out from laughing!"

"You treacherous villain!"

Wan Tianpeng immediately roared, "You must have murdered an Elder of my clan and extracted his memories to learn the Myriad Manifestation Divine Art!"

"Idiot! Since this is the Legacy technique of your Wanxiang Temple, would you not have set a Soul Restriction to prevent outsiders from searching their Souls?"

Wan Tianpeng was speechless and could only say indignantly, "Little brat, if you let this seat erase your memories of the Myriad Manifestation Divine Art, this seat can act as if this never happened."

"Sorry, I don't accept that at all!"

Xiao Chen shrugged and stared at him with an unfriendly expression, "If it appears in my line of sight, then it is my memory. What right do you have to erase it?"

"Fine!"

Wan Tianpeng instantly bristled, his gaze filled with intense killing intent, "Today, if you don't give this Hall Master an explanation, don't even think about continuing the Heavenly Pride Battle!"

Yun Canghai's face was dark as he spoke with a resonant voice, "Hall Master Wan, please restrain your emotions. This is the territory of my Yuntian Sect, not a place where you can act wildly!"

At this time, Yun Shan stood up to act as a peacemaker: "Xiao Chen, it's better for you to honestly explain the source of the technique, otherwise this matter will surely be difficult to settle!"

"Sigh..."

Xiao Chen couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "It seems you truly are important people with short memories. Wan Yuchen performed the Myriad Manifestation Divine Art in public earlier; you couldn't have forgotten that, could you?"

"Unforgettable memory, learning on the spot—you have such ability?"

"If Elder Yun doesn't believe it, why don't you demonstrate your ultimate technique in front of me and see if I can replicate it for you!"

Yun Shan stroked his beard, his expression flickering. Seeing Xiao Chen's confident face, his heart couldn't help but waver.

In the entire Yuntian Holy Realm, more than a dozen Soul Transformation Stage Old Ancestors all showed doubtful expressions.

How could there be a person in the world whose comprehension reached such a level!

But no one dared to rashly reveal their own techniques; after all, they had to be prepared for the worst. If Xiao Chen really learned it, losing the face of a hidden Sect was secondary; there was no guarantee he wouldn't spread the unique technique.

However, at this moment, Liu Luoying was making her own calculations: "If he truly has such talent, wouldn't he be the perfect successor for the Eastern Emperor Divine Sect?"

At this thought, Liu Luoying didn't hesitate at all. Her figure turned into a streak of green light and stood suspended in the center of the arena.

Her ethereal, fairy-like posture and stunning beauty immediately attracted the attention of the entire audience.

"To verify that your words are not false and to dispel everyone's doubts, I, Liu Luoying, am willing to demonstrate one Move of the Legacy technique [Eastern Emperor Sword Art];"

"If you can replicate it perfectly, this seat will not only allow you to use it as you please but will also betroth my precious daughter to you!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience was shocked.

In the entire Yuntian Holy Realm, millions of Cultivators all looked astonished, and then a wave of overwhelming discussion quickly rose.

"No way? How do all the good things fall on this kid's head!"

"Is the Eastern Emperor Divine Sect taking this opportunity to recruit him as a son-in-law?"

"What's so strange about that! If he really has this level of comprehension, then even the Chaotic Undying Body is nothing compared to him!"

"Don't be in a hurry. If this kid is just bluffing, it won't end well for him!"

...

In the seating area of the Eastern Emperor Divine Sect, Liu Yiyi blinked her starlike beautiful eyes, her lovely face filled with pride:

"This mother of mine has finally seen the light!"

Yun Shan glanced sideways and sent a secret transmission: "Sect Master, if that kid aligns himself with the Eastern Emperor Divine Sect, what should we do?"
