341: The Origin of the Guiyi Secret Technique

The moment the Great Evolution Blade Domain descended, a terrifying domain suppression was directly imposed on the figure holding a long halberd in the distance.

"This is... a Supreme Level Great Dao!"

"And it's a World-Creation-Level Battle Technique... How is that possible!"

The figure, who had originally been calm and composed, now had his pupils violently contracting.

"Purple-gold bloodline... Supreme Level Great Dao, has someone finally appeared who can challenge that person's status...?"

"It's a pity, your Realm is too low!"

That person?

Lin Chen heard the figure's soliloquy, and he had a guess in his heart.

However, seeing how surprised he was by his Great Dao, could it be that he also hadn't mastered a Supreme Level Great Dao?

If that were the case, he still had a slight chance.

Lin Chen's mouth curved slightly, and then countless saber lights appeared with a single thought, these saber lights began to slash at that figure from various angles.

But the next moment, Lin Chen's eyes widened. The saber lights, which had originally been astonishing in their momentum, couldn't even scratch the figure when they struck him!

The figure just watched him quietly, as if the saber lights were tickling him.

Is the defense of a pseudo-Eternal Golden Body so abnormal?

"It seems I must go all out!"

Lin Chen's mind stirred, and 71 clones erupted simultaneously, streaks of purple-gold light soaring into the sky.

Then, the power of all the clones began to gather towards him.

His main body also unleashed the strongest attack of the Great Evolution Blade Domain.

He saw the long saber in his hand erupt with dazzling light, and then the Unity Secret Art was activated!

At this moment, Lin Chen's Physical Strength was 135 million units, which was much higher than the Physical Strength of a pseudo-Eternal Realm Golden Body.

But it was far from reaching the level of an Eternal Golden Body.

Therefore, his current Physical Strength amplification multiple was still at the pseudo-Eternal Realm Golden Body level.

And a pseudo-Eternal Golden Body, like a pseudo-eternal treasure artifact, can amplify the power of a Creation Level Great Dao Combat Skill by 100,000 times!

Adding them up, that's 200,000 times!

This was a terrifying amplification multiple!

Coupled with the fact that the Great Dao Combat Skill created by Lin Chen was Creation Level, this level of battle skill could also amplify Great Dao power by 12,000 times!

Most importantly, it was amplifying a Supreme Level Great Dao!

Lin Chen had tested it before; this one saber strike could instantly kill a late-stage Half-step Eternal Realm, but its saber light was casually shattered by an Eternal Realm mighty being.

And the gap between a late-stage Half-step Eternal Realm and an Eternal Realm was too immense.

The power of Lin Chen's saber strike was precisely at a level between these two Realms... Boom—

A dazzling saber light slashed out, splitting heaven and earth, and the void shattered inch by inch!

The terrifying saber light swept towards that figure with an unstoppable force!

At this moment, the tall figure holding the long halberd slowly became solemn, then turned to shock.

He stood up, his height several tens of meters.

Then, his Physical Strength surged, and the long halberd in his hand also erupted with brilliant light, striking fiercely towards that saber light.

"He didn't use a Great Dao Combat Skill?"

Just as Lin Chen was contemplating, the saber light that cleaved heaven and earth struck the halberd.

Rumble—

The void shattered in large swaths, like paper, and the terrifying temporal-spatial turbulence formed a death zone between the two of them.

After everything calmed down, Lin Chen looked over.

He saw that the tall figure had already been cut in half by a single saber strike, and the terrifying power of the Grandmist Great Dao was continuously eroding his physical body, preventing it from healing.

The tall figure looked down at his physical body, his eyes filled with shock.

"How is this possible... What level is your Unity Secret Art!"

"I see your Golden Body is clearly only Yuan Grade Twelve Forging, why is the amplification so terrifying!"

Oh?

Lin Chen was stunned upon hearing this. The other party knew about the Unity Secret Art?

As if sensing Lin Chen's confusion, the tall figure slowly said:

"The Unity Secret Art was actually a secret technique of opportunity bestowed by the Lord of the Black Tower countless eons ago, but later, the prodigy who mastered this secret technique was assassinated, and the technique thus spread..."

Lord of the Black Tower?

Is it that 'Abyss'?

Lin Chen had originally thought the Unity Secret Art was created by an Eternal Saint Lord-level mighty being.

He didn't expect it to have such a grand origin!

In fact, thinking about it, it was normal; being able to amplify the power of both the physical body and weapons simultaneously to the level of the Great Dao was too heaven-defying!

This required mastering extremely high-level profound truths of the Gui Yi Great Dao!

Lin Chen naturally wouldn't tell the other party that his Unity Secret Art was one level higher than the Unity Secret Art bestowed by the Lord of the Black Tower.

He only now understood the preciousness of an 8-star Unity Secret Art.

A 7-star Unity Secret Art, when a physical body amplifies a Great Dao Combat Skill, can only calculate the amplification multiple based on the Golden Body's current Realm.

However, his 8-star Unity Secret Art can calculate the multiple based on the amplified Golden Body Realm!

For example, although he is currently at the Yuan Grade Twelve Forging Golden Body, after the body techniques and bloodline amplification, his Golden Body Realm is comparable to a pseudo-Eternal Realm Golden Body!

When applied to a battle skill, the amplification multiple will be calculated according to the pseudo-Eternal Realm Golden Body!

Although the secret technique he mastered only increased by 1 star, the difference between them was too immense.

A Yuan Grade Twelve Forging Golden Body can only amplify Great Dao power by 3,000 times.

Whereas a pseudo-Eternal Realm Golden Body can amplify it by 100,000 times!

This was the difference!

The tall figure saw Lin Chen remain silent, seemingly having some guesses.

He sighed and said:

"You are very strong, and your talent and opportunities are both heaven-defying."

"You can destroy 5% of my vitality with one saber strike, I have already lost."

"If we continue to fight, I will definitely lose... Since that's the case... may we meet again."

Buzz—

The tall figure before him slowly dissipated.

Lin Chen watched all of this with a calm expression.

What the tall figure said was correct; Lin Chen also learned his true combat strength level from this battle.

When he went all out, his Physical Strength combat power was slightly stronger than 1 billion units of strength.

But the strength was limited.

If that person had fought him head-on, they might have had to fight for a very long time.

Because the recovery ability of a pseudo-Eternal Golden Body was too strong.

He could only slowly wear down the opponent... "However, this is only a Supreme Ranking Prodigy ranked 50th; what about those ranked higher?"

"And what about the one ranked first?"

Ultimately, Lin Chen's Realm was still too low.

Neither his Golden Body nor his Great Dao had broken through to the Half-step Eternal Realm.

If both of these were to break through, then his combat power would once again undergo an all-around improvement!

At that time, he would very likely be able to reverse-slay an Eternal Realm mighty being from the Half-step Eternal Realm!

Through this battle, Lin Chen realized the terror of an Eternal Realm mighty being.

The leap in strength from Half-step Eternal Realm to Eternal Realm was too great.

A pseudo-Eternal Realm Golden Body, even with a tenfold strength amplification, still couldn't touch the threshold of the Eternal Realm...

However, Lin Chen was not in a hurry; he just needed to proceed step by step.

Just then, a figure appeared out of thin air beside him.

Lin Chen looked up, and it was his copy in the Statue Space.

As if he had thought of something, Lin Chen nodded towards the copy, then his figure flickered, and he exited the Statue Space.

As soon as he came out, Lin Chen showed a look of sudden realization.

He saw that the statue ranked 50th in front of him had already changed to his likeness.

And the Supreme Ranking Prodigies ranked after 50 had all shifted back one position, while the statue of the tall figure from before had become 51st...

At this moment, on the continent where the supreme ranking list was located.

Upon seeing Lin Chen's figure appear, the trial-takers who had originally not favored him fell silent.

The flow of time inside the Statue Space was different from the outside world, so to them, only a few seconds had passed, and Lin Chen had already successfully challenged.

This scene was quite shocking!

"Oh my god, are we about to witness the birth of a future Ancestor Realm powerhouse...?"

"Ancestor Realm is a bit exaggerated, but Half-step Ancestor Realm should be a sure thing."

"It's truly unimaginable, he's only in the early Half-step Eternal Realm; what if his Realm improves?"

When a trial-taker mentioned this point, it immediately caused gasps of cold air.

"I overlooked that point..."

"In other words, he just now defeated the 50th ranked Supreme Ranking Prodigy across Realms?"

All the trial-takers reacted, realizing something.

"What do you all say, if his Realm improves, is it possible for him to challenge the one ranked first...?"

"How could that be? As far as I know, the one ranked first is already an Ancestor Realm powerhouse!"

"Since he took the top position, no one has been able to shake him..."

Lin Chen also looked at the statue ranked first at this moment, and a surge of fighting spirit rose in his heart.

"I wonder what level of opportunity I can get if I defeat him..."

Heaven-defying secret techniques like the Unity Secret Art all came from this ultimate opportunity reward. What about opportunities better than the Unity Secret Art?

Lin Chen knew that he only had one chance, and he had to seize it!

"My Grandmist Great Dao is only one step away from breaking through the bottleneck..."

"But I don't have enough Energy Points..."

Suddenly, Lin Chen thought of something.

He had previously absorbed energy from weapons, but later, the Energy Points contained in those weapons were no longer enough for him.

"I wonder how many Energy Points an eternal treasure artifact has?"

Lin Chen's eyes lit up.

There was no time limit for this supreme ranking list challenge.

Moreover, he also had the Martial Dao Space and the time wheel; both could stack time acceleration multiples!

He could completely break through here once!

As for eternal treasure artifacts... Lin Chen's mouth curved into a smile, and he scanned the nearly 90,000 trial-takers.

Aren't there many here?
