Free Web NovelChapter 2984: Chapter 1102: Collision of Sky and Sea_2
The physical body is merely a shell; the primordial spirit is the core.
As long as one dares to abandon the shell, the primordial spirit can escape into the heavens and earth, becoming almost unstoppable.
Liancheng died under his sword initially because Luo Chen used the Three Flames Fan and Withering and Flourishing Dao Finger to destroy the opponent’s physical body, exposing the primordial spirit. Furthermore, Liancheng was backed by Heaven and Earth Island and the soon-to-arrive Profound Realm True Monarch, so escaping was not an option; he could only fight to the death with him. Finally, Liancheng relied too much on the defensive Spiritual Treasure Bone Burial Umbrella, unaware that Luo Chen had found its smallest flaw.
Thus, Liancheng met such a miserable end.
But Luo Chen wasn’t so arrogant as to assume that every Divine Transformation Great Power who fought him would have so many concerns.
Therefore, he simulated various battle scenarios with Divine Transformation Great Powers and made multiple responses.
The most crucial point was using the Lifebound Magic Treasure Primordial Chaos Tripod to seal the heavens and earth, preventing the Divine Transformation Cultivator’s primordial spirit from escaping into the heavens.
However, at this moment, it seemed to have failed.
If the opponent truly wished to escape, the Primordial Chaos Tripod could not suppress it!
Luo Chen lamented aloud but was not upset in his heart.
This battle, ostensibly to demand an explanation, was in fact an experiment of his own methods.
Having witnessed the real situation, the task was deemed satisfactorily completed.
As for the Sea Emperor Whale?
"Humph!"
Luo Chen sneered, put away the Blood Sword, and his figure flickered.
Bang!
The void boomed; figures flashed repeatedly.
After a few breaths, void ripples surged, and amidst flashing sparks, Luo Chen’s figure gently emerged on a small island with clear sands.
In front of him was the shocked face of the Sea Emperor Whale.
"How is this possible? With my Water Escape Technique in these vast waters, how could you possibly catch up?"
Luo Chen chuckled lightly, "Friend, you’re an ancestor of a sect. Isn’t fleeing so desperately a bit disgraceful?"
"Disgrace is better than losing one’s life!" The Sea Emperor Whale snorted and then leapt into the vast sea.
Seeing this, Luo Chen only chuckled, taking another step.
The Five Elements Escape Technique has its strengths and weaknesses.
Water Escape is advantageous in low qi power consumption and long duration; its drawback is slow speed and like Earth Escape, is environment dependent.
Fire Escape, on the other hand, is completely opposite, fast and high in explosive output, but its flaw lies in its immense qi power consumption.
In the Nascent Soul Realm, Luo Chen’s use of Fire Escape Technique was not very enduring.
Yet, this problem was largely solved when he reached the Late Stage Nascent Soul.
Now, integrated with Sky Explosion Step into Blast Sky Fire Escape, capable of controlling Heaven and Earth’s primordial qi, it had no flaws whatsoever.
In the void, only shadow flashing was seen; with each step, a fiery red lotus seemed to bloom beneath his feet.
Amidst lotus blossoms, the distance between Luo Chen and the Sea Emperor Whale didn’t widen; instead, it grew increasingly close, shadow-like!
After an incense stick of time!
The Sea Emperor Whale flew out of a patch of sea in distress, a somewhat unnatural blush flashing across his face.
It was caused by Luo Chen suddenly releasing a technique when he was about to activate Water Escape Technique again, forcibly interrupting its execution.
Backlash from escape technique was naturally uncomfortable.
He looked up, void ripples surged, fire lotus appeared again, still that annoying face.
"Luo Chen, what exactly do you want?"
Luo Chen gave a smile without warmth, "Friend, isn’t this a rhetorical question?"
"Rhetorical question?" The Sea Emperor Whale chuckled despite his anger, "You clearly know you can’t do much against me, yet insist on persistently pestering, treating my good temper as indulgence?"
Divine Transformation Cultivators easily distinguish victory, but life and death are much rarer.
Yet, the recent five hundred years have seen frequent falls of Divine Transformation Cultivators—not because the iron rule is broken.
It was simply because shadows of one individual often appeared in these Divine Transformation battles.
Qi Xia Emperor!
This demon’s methods extend beyond just the Divine Transformation Realm!
At this moment, the Sea Emperor Whale’s assurance stemmed precisely from this.
Luo Chen could keep up with him, his formidable strength overwhelming him, but was indeed unable to detain him.
This was still without abandoning the physical body!
If pushed to the brink, the Sea Emperor Whale could retaliate desperately; Luo Chen wouldn’t feel well either. In the end, the Sea Emperor Whale might as well abandon his physical body.
Just as the Sea Emperor Whale glared fiercely at Luo Chen, his eyes gradually widened, revealing a hint of fear on his face.
A vividly delicate and exceptionally divine fire bird was dancing gracefully in Luo Chen’s palm.
"Nirvana... Sacred Fire..."
The Sea Emperor Whale swallowed hard and struggled to utter the name.
Luo Chen looked at him with a faint smile, "Friend, do you think there’s nothing Luo can do to you?"
The low-tier Nirvana Sacred Fire, compared to regular Sourceless Fire, is only slightly stronger, so it isn’t particularly remarkable.
However, the Nirvana Sacred Fire that has undergone the Nine Tribulations and Three Nirvana can burn the spirit, body, and even soul!
The cultivator’s Primordial Spirit is also included!
At the very least, the Sea Emperor Whale personally witnessed Qi Xia Emperor use this fire to severely injure the Soul Refining Elder, who was skilled in the path of soul refining, almost burning him alive during the assault on Yuan Mo Sect.
That was a fire that even the Primordial Spirit Escape Space could not evade!
In the battle of Tianyuan Daoist Sect, Luo Chen did reveal the Nirvana Sacred Fire, but only for a moment, and at that time, he didn’t display similar techniques.
But now, that firebird is devouring the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, appearing astonishingly lively.
A tremor in his soul arises spontaneously!
Unless the Sea Emperor Whale abandons this physical body now, escaping thousands of miles away before the Nirvana Sacred Fire initiates attack.
But how could he willingly abandon it?
Compared to the human race, who focus on qi refinement and soul cultivation, the demon clan’s reliance on the physical body is innate, even attaining the Divinity Transformation Realm, they do not want to easily abandon it.
In silence.
The Sea Emperor Whale suddenly stepped back and bowed with respect.
"Daoist Friend Luo Chen, earlier it was my fault. I apologize here and hope you forgive!"
Luo Chen was taken aback, not expecting the opponent to yield so quickly.
His gaze fell on the Nirvana Sacred Fire, and some doubts flashed in his heart.
It seems this fire is even more threatening to demon clan’s great powers!
Indeed, Qi Xia Emperor is one of the top among the demon clan’s Fire Phoenix clan, the Nirvana Sacred Fire she cultivated naturally commands greater respect from demon clan cultivators.
Maybe he hasn’t yet fully unleashed the complete power of this fire.
Luo Chen thought, revealing a smile, "The explanation Luo wants is more than just an apology!"
This Sea Emperor Whale is indeed adaptable.
Next moment, he threw something with his hand.
Streams of light appeared between the two.
Looking up, mostly books.
The Sea Emperor Whale spoke sincerely, "Most of the resources acquired from Tianyuan Daoist Sect are gone, having been consumed by me, so I can’t repay them. Most books contain Daoist Sect’s cultivation techniques, with quite a few at the Fifth Order level. I heard you established a sect, these may become foundational heritage."
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, his heart sinking when the Luo Tian Sect was mentioned.
"Additionally, I heard you are keen on Pill Refinement and medicine making, I have a Fifth-tier Pill Recipe here. It shall be a gift for you as well!"
Another flash of light, falling into Luo Chen’s hand.
With Divine Perception, the words ’Guiyuan Pill’ imprinted into his mind.
Luo Chen gripped the Pill Formula tightly, it was indeed a great gift!
A Divinity Transformation Realm cultivation-related Pill Formula, although difficult for others to manage, it was perfect timing for him.
"Friend, are you satisfied with my explanation?" the Sea Emperor Whale asked cautiously.
Luo Chen’s gaze flashed, the Nirvana Sacred Fire in his hand dissipated, and all the cultivation technique books were collected.
He laughed loudly, "The Sea Emperor is generous, let’s call today’s sparring a draw!"
The Sea Emperor Whale’s face stiffened, the sparring, they say.
Earlier it seemed like a life and death struggle to exterminate him, calling this sparring?
He forced a rigid smile, "Yes, yes, today was just sparring."
Luo Chen walked over to him, regardless of any caution, laughing heartily, "Friend, today’s banquet hasn’t ended, why don’t we go back and converse over drinks?"
"Please... go ahead!"
"After you!"
Luo Chen laughed loudly, swinging his sleeve, stepping forward heading toward the Giant Whale Sea Area.
Behind him, the Sea Emperor Whale’s expression was uncertain.
Among the human race, a Divinity Transformation expert has emerged, and he is especially young.
This is not good news!
After finally freeing from Yuan Mo Sect’s suppression, should he face thousands of years of Luo Chen’s restraint again?
Moreover, during the previous fight, Luo Chen secretly used a method to lock down the heavens and earth, weak now, but indeed existing.
Given enough time, if that method advances enough to truly lock the heavens and earth, trap the Primordial Spirit, and combined with Nirvana Sacred Fire, Spirit Treasure Flying Sword, and other techniques, it’s feared this calamity could indeed wipe out these Ancient Monsters of God Transformation.
"Perhaps the Mountain Sea Realm can no longer hold us!"
