287: Hongmeng Divine Body Technique

Between body techniques and combat skills of the same level, body techniques are more valuable.

This can be seen from the Energy Points consumed by the system upgrade.

Comparing the two, body techniques are more powerful.

Because body cultivators will not lose combat power due to the depletion of divine power, but martial arts practitioners will...

This system upgrade took 15 years.

Lin Chen found that after the upgrade, besides the body technique, the system had another change.

Secret Technique: Unity Secret Art (Seven-star) (Requires 300 billion Energy Points to advance)

Body Technique Deduction: Consumes 100 million Energy Points

Energy Points: 10.02 billion

System Upgrade: Consumes 1 trillion Energy Points

“So the Unity Secret Art is of such a high level!”

Lin Chen was very surprised, and at this moment, he was extremely grateful to Luo Tian.

The Unity Secret Art becomes more useful in the later stages!

It can be said that this is a heaven-defying secret technique that can merge the paths of physical body cultivation and martial arts!

What kind of existence was the strong individual who created this secret technique?

At this moment, Lin Chen realized that perhaps the sect Luo Tian belonged to was not simple... After all, even true spirit secret techniques of the level of Spirit-Extinguishing Divine Nail and Thousand Immortal Battle Array were only 5-star.

It's just that this upgrade actually requires 300 billion Energy Points. With his current energy point reserves and his ability to acquire Energy Points, it will probably take a very long time to accumulate 300 billion Energy Points... Also, the next system upgrade actually requires 1 trillion Energy Points, a full 100-fold increase!

Lin Chen guessed that the next system upgrade should be able to deduce Great Dao Combat Skills that surpass the Origin Realm!

Combat skills of that level must be incredibly terrifying!

After all, even those trial-takers who comprehended ultimate-level Great Daos only comprehended Great Dao Combat Skills of the early-stage Origin Realm... After retracting his thoughts, Lin Chen consumed Energy Points and began to deduce body techniques.

There were still about seven years until the fourth day's demonic creatures descended, and Lin Chen estimated that time was still a bit tight.

However, no matter how strong the fourth wave of demonic creatures was, they were only late-stage Half-Step Great Emperors. He could still kill them, and then he would have another 22 years.

Another five years passed in the time acceleration field, and the new body technique was finally deduced.

Lin Chen looked at the system panel.

Body Technique: Hongmeng Divine Body Technique (High-Level Origin Realm) (1 / 100 million Energy Points)

(Comprehend a trace of Hongmeng power, draw Hongmeng power into the body, and strengthen the physical body!)

Hongmeng power?

Lin Chen's heart was filled with surging waves of shock. If this Hongmeng power was the same as what he knew, then it would be too heaven-defying.

Hongmeng power is the initial power before the heavens and earth were formed, one of the highest-level powers in the power system!

It is the foundation for deriving all laws and energies!

Just comprehending a trace of Hongmeng power can achieve a body technique of the High-Level Origin Realm. One can imagine how terrifying true Hongmeng power is.

Lin Chen felt that the 'trace' in this body technique, compared to true Hongmeng power, was probably less than one-trillionth of a trillionth...

There were still two years until the fourth wave of demonic creatures descended, and it was certainly too late for the Hongmeng Divine Body Technique to reach perfection.

He could only comprehend as much as he could, and then return to continue comprehending after dealing with the fourth wave of demonic creatures.

Then Lin Chen immediately consumed 100 million Energy Points.

To comprehend body techniques, the thousand-core ancient lamp was naturally indispensable.

Under the ten thousand-fold comprehension amplification, Lin Chen entered a super enlightenment state... Soon, two years passed in the time field.

On this day, Lin Chen felt something in his heart, immediately stopped comprehending, took a step, and left the sixth layer of space-time.

As soon as Lin Chen appeared, the second-ranked human trial-taker immediately looked in Lin Chen's direction.

“He disappeared for a day. Is it a space-time ability?”

“Interesting, it seems he must have entered the sixth layer of space-time.”

He had comprehended the ultimate-level Great Dao, so he naturally knew about the two superior Great Daos of space and time.

However, there were many superior Great Daos, and he had not comprehended the Great Dao of space-time.

The other eight trial-takers were the same; they had not comprehended the Great Dao of space-time, otherwise they would have already entered the sixth layer of space-time to avoid the demonic creatures.

To enter the fifth layer of space-time, one must have perfected the Great Dao related to space-time that they created.

And to enter the sixth layer of space-time, one must have comprehended the Origin Realm level Great Dao of space-time... When Lin Chen's realm was lower, his understanding had a slight deviation. The Space-Time Evasion combat skill only allowed him to possess the ability of an Origin Realm level Great Dao, not the ability of an Emperor Realm level Great Dao of space-time!

Comprehending an Emperor Realm level Great Dao of space-time allows one to enter higher space-time dimensions... Boom—

A roar sounded, and a huge space channel appeared again above the nine continents.

The eight trial-takers who had not yet mastered the method of killing demonic creatures all showed expressions of despair.

They could foresee that the crisis of death was descending... On the other side, on the continent where Lin Chen was.

Before the demonic creatures descended, Lin Chen had already sensed the powerful aura in the space channel.

Awoo—

Wild roars came, and demonic creatures descended in droves.

The demonic creatures that descended this time were exactly as Lin Chen had guessed.

1,000 late-stage Half-step Great Emperor Realm demonic creatures!

Boom—

Thousands of demonic creatures released terrifying pressure, their eyes bloodshot, like a zombie invasion, rushing towards him madly.

Lin Chen, seeing this, calmly took out his long saber.

When the demonic creatures approached him within a hundred kilometers, his eyes suddenly burst with strong purple light, and then he brandished his long saber, unleashing terrifying saber lights!

At this moment, Lin Chen's aura erupted, incredibly violent.

Screams came from the thousands of demonic creatures. Wherever the saber light passed, these demonic creatures exploded one after another, completely powerless to resist!

Lin Chen's true spirit power divided into thousands of strands, each locking onto a demonic core.

Achieving this was incredibly easy for him.

At his current true spirit realm, he could generate hundreds of millions of thoughts in an instant!

After all the demonic creatures' physical bodies were destroyed by the light, Lin Chen's mind moved, and he directly activated the system's devour function!

Om—

All the demonic cores instantly transformed into energy streams. These energy streams, like tides, surged into Lin Chen's body in waves.

After the system upgrade, the speed of absorbing Energy Points greatly increased again.

However, the energy contained in the cores of thousands of late-stage Half-step Great Emperor Realm demonic creatures was too vast.

It took Lin Chen more than two hours to absorb it all.

Energy Points: 17.02 billion

Each late-stage Half-step Great Emperor Realm demonic creature's core contained 7 million Energy Points!

“It would be great if there were more.”

Lin Chen reluctantly put away his long saber.

This scene was perceived by the eight trial-takers.

Immediately, the eight trial-takers all felt an urge to vomit blood, wishing they could strangle Lin Chen.

At this moment, the eight trial-takers developed strong jealousy and resentment towards Lin Chen...

They had been almost driven mad these past few days, trying all sorts of methods, but they just couldn't kill these demonic creatures.

This time, with the descent of late-stage Half-step Great Emperor Realm demonic creatures, their pressure doubled and redoubled.

Several weaker trial-takers already felt somewhat powerless.

After all, these demonic creatures could revive quickly within a few seconds.

Constantly killing for three days, they all felt somewhat numb and dazed.

Now with 1,000 late-stage Half-Step Great Emperor demonic creatures descending, many trial-takers couldn't even guarantee instantly annihilating all the demonic creatures.

They no longer had even a few seconds to breathe, and could only continuously move their bodies to kill the demonic creatures.

Finally, one trial-taker couldn't hold on anymore.

Actually, he could have endured this wave of demonic creatures by forcing himself, but when he thought that there were still six days, and the demonic creatures descending each day would surely be stronger or more numerous, he simply couldn't bear it anymore!

Then he compromised with the second-ranked human trial-taker and did not choose Lin Chen.

Perhaps he was stimulated by Lin Chen's absorption of energy in these waves, and in his perception, the second-ranked human trial-taker had likely already broken through to the Great Emperor Realm!

Comparing the advantages of both sides, he naturally did not choose Lin Chen.

Soon, he swore an oath by the supreme rules to forever follow the second-ranked human trial-taker, without even a trace of hesitation throughout... After all, at this point, compared to death, he would rather follow someone else...

Lin Chen was indifferent to this trial-taker's choice.

Even if all the trial-takers chose to follow the second-ranked human, he would be fearless.

Relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself... Just then, the first trial-taker who couldn't hold on burst into maniacal laughter.

“So that's how it is, I know now, hahahaha!”

“You damn things, I've tolerated you for too long, die!!!”

Having been suppressed by these strange demonic creatures for so long, he finally erupted at this moment... In response, Lin Chen shook his head slightly, then directly entered the sixth layer of space-time.
