King of Assassins

Chapter 1198: Chapter 742: Great Leiyin True Skill 2

Seeing Shi Wanqiu killed with his own eyes, and the destruction of the myriad demons, was too great a shock to him.

The Nine-headed Insect also saw that the Golden Ape King’s condition was not right, so he took the initiative to say, "Daoist Monarch, this disciple can help tidy up this place..."

Gao Xuan killed Shi Wanqiu, killed Yu Lian Daoist, and slaughtered the myriad demons in the plaza. This battle also caused more than half of Qianqiu Palace to collapse; the entire Qianqiu Palace had practically become a ruin.

Qianqiu Palace was in complete chaos; to set everything in order would also require some time.

At a glance, the Golden Ape King was a rough brute of a demon, good at eating meat and drinking blood, but definitely not suited for this kind of delicate work.

The Nine-headed Bird volunteering to help was also his attempt to show off a bit. freёweɓnovel.com

Gao Xuan nodded. "Daoist friend, you are meticulous and careful; I’ll trouble you with this matter."

He then released Ripples and Ice Soul, letting them assist in putting Qianqiu Palace in order.

Qianqiu Palace was built quite gorgeously, fully in line with Human Race aesthetics. On the other hand, Qianqiu Palace was also Shi Wanqiu’s accumulation over a million years, with countless strange treasures, Spirit Flower Immortal Trees; to abandon it just like this would indeed be a pity.

However, these were all ultimately minor matters.

The truly crucial thing was to first refine the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal and take control of this heaven and earth, only then could he condense Earth Immortal Law.

The Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal was the condensation of Shi Wanqiu’s Earth Immortal Law, and was not a true Magical Treasure.

After Shi Wanqiu’s death, the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal should have dissipated along with him.

Only because Gao Xuan used the Eternal Celestial Dragon Claw to refine Shi Wanqiu’s Divine Soul could he barely preserve thirty percent of the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal’s Power.

This thirty percent of the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal’s Power also could not last too long.

Gao Xuan had to seize the time to comprehend the Law within the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal and temporarily stabilize it.

Once he condensed Earth Immortal Law, he would then forge his own Law Earth Artifact.

Gao Xuan entered the depths of Qianqiu Palace; there lay Shi Wanqiu’s Secret Palace for seclusion.

This Secret Palace was built within an Independent Space, and the entire palace was cast from Profound Gold. This special metal was generally used for refining High-tier Weapons, yet Shi Wanqiu used it to construct a palace—one could see how extravagant he was.

Only an Earth Immortal who had lived for thirty epochs would have such accumulation.

The Secret Palace cast of Profound Gold was of course not just for looks; more importantly, Profound Gold could have Runes etched into it and bear immense Primordial Qi Power.

After continuous sacrificial refinement, by now the Profound Gold Secret Palace had already become a powerful Magical Treasure, able to withstand external forces of water, fire, wind, and thunder. More importantly, the Profound Gold Secret Palace could fly through the Void and absorb Primordial Qi in the Void.

If the Endless Void was an ocean, then the Profound Gold Secret Palace was a great ship capable of crossing that ocean.

Now this Profound Gold Secret Palace was connected to the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal through lines of Law.

If one wanted to find him in the Endless Void, the first thing would be to find the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal. Or else, first completely seize control of the Cloud Forest Sea and the Cloud Light Mountain Range, stripping the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal of its authority over this heaven and earth.

Gao Xuan also sighed inwardly; truly extravagant. However, this Secret Palace now belonged to him.

The layout of the Secret Palace was very simple. Besides the main hall used for seclusion, there were four side halls, each packed full of various Spiritual Objects and rare treasures.

Any one of these items, taken out at random, would be a weighty treasure for a Human Immortal.

For an Earth Immortal, most of these things were not of much use. However, there were also some special Spiritual Objects and Exotic Treasures that were rare and excellent even for an Earth Immortal.

Gao Xuan Sword Dao took one look at the Treasure Vault and did not pay it much mind. He did not have the time to fiddle with these things right now.

The urgent task at hand was still to first stabilize the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal.

Gao Xuan wielded the Eternal Celestial Dragon Claw, extracting Shi Wanqiu’s Divine Soul memories and reading them through carefully.

Shi Wanqiu’s true form was a Cyan Lion, who had once cultivated alongside a Buddhist Sect powerhouse. Because he could not endure the various precepts and rules of the Buddhist Sect, he seized an opportunity to leave the Upper Three Realms and come to the Primordial Celestial Realm.

Relying on his own formidable Cultivation, Shi Wanqiu occupied this heaven and earth to cultivate and very quickly achieved Earth Immortal.

Because he had secretly run away from the Buddhist Sect, although he had tacit consent from that powerhouse, he did not dare flaunt his identity as a Buddhist Disciple.

Thus, the outside world mostly did not know Shi Wanqiu’s origins. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Shi Wanqiu’s memories concerning the Buddhist Sect powerhouse were all a blur. Gao Xuan also did not know which one of the Buddhist Sect powerhouses this really was.

Gao Xuan guessed it was not that Shi Wanqiu could not remember clearly, but that the Buddhist Sect powerhouse’s Power was too strong; he could not pry into the other party through Shi Wanqiu’s memories.

A Cultivator at Earth Immortal Level also carried a certain weight even in the Upper Three Realms. Having killed a Buddhist Sect powerhouse’s Earth Immortal disciple, could the other party possibly not care?

Gao Xuan felt this matter could not be judged easily. Fortunately, the Upper Three Realms formed a world of their own and were unlikely to come to the Primordial Celestial Realm.

Besides, what’s done is done; saying anything now was useless. The only thing was to raise his own Cultivation as quickly as possible.

Gao Xuan temporarily set aside the matter of the Buddhist Sect powerhouse and focused on examining what Shi Wanqiu had learned.

Shi Wanqiu’s innate Divine Technique was the Celestial Lion Roar; following the Buddhist Sect powerhouse, he had learned the Great Leiyin True Skill, and the Celestial Lion Roar Divine Technique was greatly enhanced.

When Shi Wanqiu ran away from the Buddhist Sect, he also stole a Thunder Sound Pearl. This pearl contained the Great Leiyin True Dao and was a first-class Divine Artifact.

From Shi Wanqiu’s memories, Gao Xuan learned the complete Great Leiyin True Skill. This was a Buddhist Sect Righteous Law, unwritten and passed on only to true disciples.

The Thunder Sound Pearl was also a fine item. After studying it for a while, Gao Xuan confirmed that the Thunder Sound Pearl’s might was no weaker than the Celestial Dragon Eye or the Hongyi Sword.

Its thunder-sound attribute was even more compatible with the Great Leiyin True Skill.

The Great Leiyin True Skill had a six-syllable True Words mantra; Shi Wanqiu had only learned one syllable: "Zhen" (True).

"Zhen" represented directly facing oneself and directly facing the space-time of the Cosmos; it was the first key to cultivating one’s root nature.

Shi Wanqiu’s aptitude was originally above average, and it was entirely by relying on this single "Zhen" True Word that he could continuously refine his root nature and achieve Earth Immortal.
