King of Assassins

Chapter 1199: Chapter 742: Great Leiyin True Skill (Part 3)

However, "True" Words are meant for self-cultivation, and they fall short when used against enemies.

From Shi Wanqiu’s memory, he regretted not properly studying the Great Leiyin True Skill and only learning the One-Character True Words, which resulted in mediocre combat skills.

After reviewing Shi Wanqiu’s memory, Gao Xuan sighed with relief; had Shi Wanqiu used the Thunder Sound Pearl to trigger the Celestial Lion Roar, he might have died once more.

The Nine-Revolutions Divine Cicada can only reincarnate nine times, and each chance of rebirth is incredibly precious.

To fight with an Earth Immortal requires risking one’s life, so what of a Celestial Immortal? And what about a Daluo Golden Immortal?

Losing a chance for rebirth makes Gao Xuan somewhat regretful. Fortunately, it was worth the risk.

Gao Xuan considers the Great Leiyin True Skill valuable; despite being only one word, it is more precious than the Thunder Sound Pearl.

Although the Great Leiyin True Skill is a Buddhist Secret Technique, it does not restrict the identity of the cultivator.

This One-Character "True" Word suits him well.

Gao Xuan lacks attack methods; throughout his journey, he’s cultivated various Secret Techniques by self-study and comprehension, without learning true Righteous Law.

The Great Leiyin True Skill directly targets the divine soul and one’s innate character, allowing the cultivator to clearly see oneself.

Through continuous cultivation and enhancement, it compensates for one’s inherent flaws.

Simply put, the True Words of the Great Leiyin True Skill serve as a perspective mirror, enabling the cultivator to fully see oneself and identify all their shortcomings.

With this Secret Technique, cultivators avoid taking wrong paths.

Gao Xuan learned the Great Leiyin True Skill from Shi Wanqiu’s memory, lacking the added spiritual resonance from Buddhist powerhouses. Conversely, this prevents him from following the old path of Buddhist powerhouses.

Buddhist powerhouses are lofty and their wisdom and abilities certainly surpass Gao Xuan.

If he were to follow the advice of a Buddhist powerhouse, Gao Xuan would surely tread their path.

For now, this enables quick progress for Gao Xuan. In the long run, it may not be beneficial. The path of a Buddhist powerhouse may not suit Gao Xuan.

Having found Shi Wanqiu’s main Secret Technique, Gao Xuan can cultivate it, which simplifies things.

The essence of the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal is the Earth Immortal Law condensed from the Great Leiyin True Skill.

Gao Xuan first cultivates the Great Leiyin True Skill to maintain the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal intact. Then he gradually transfers its power to his cultivated Secret Technique.

This process is somewhat complex, yet a necessary transition.

Otherwise, with Shi Wanqiu dead, other Earth Immortal might come seeking trouble if they learn he is not yet an Earth Immortal.

With the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal, even with only thirty percent of its power, it’s enough to easily handle other Earth Immortals.

Gao Xuan hurriedly browsed through the memories left by various Demon Kings. Most Demon King memories are worthless.

However, the memories of foreign Demon Kings like the Six-tailed Demon Fox hold great value.

Through these Demon King memories, Gao Xuan gains a clear understanding of the outside world.

Especially at the Earth Immortal level, most of the visiting Demon Kings are subordinates of nearby Earth Immortals.

These Earth Immortals are mostly neighbors of Shi Wanqiu. Due to the unique situation of Earth Immortals, none can overpower the other, allowing them to coexist peacefully.

Of course, these Earth Immortals aren’t closely bonded and surely won’t avenge Shi Wanqiu.

Yet some Earth Immortal might seize the opportunity for gain, requiring vigilance.

Fortunately, with the demise of the group of demons, it will take time for other Earth Immortals to learn the specifics.

Using this buffer period, one should swiftly refine the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal.

Gao Xuan stops distracting himself and focuses on cultivating the Great Leiyin True Skill.

Though the method is a direct transmission from the Buddhist sect, it imposes no identity requirements on cultivators. As long as one has sufficient wisdom and cultivation, they can practice it.

Gao Xuan cultivates his Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body, constantly observing his innate character, identifying defects and weaknesses, and refining them, striving for a perfect realm.

In truth, there is no flawless Secret Technique, nor perfect Dao Body in the world.

The notion of perfection is merely theoretical.

Like mathematics, concepts such as points, lines, and surfaces do not exist in reality.

Gao Xuan understands this principle; regardless of how the Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body is cultivated, it can only approach perfection.

His Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body has reached the limit of Gao Xuan’s abilities; he can no longer find issues with it.

Being crushed by the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal revealed the vulnerability of his Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body.

But truly, the Heaven-Flipping Golden Seal is too potent. Under such power, the Innate Primordial Chaos Dao Body directly collapses, revealing few problems.

It’s like smashing an egg with a hammer; the egg breaks outright, leaving no room to assess its faults.

Gao Xuan practices the Great Leiyin True Skill, invoking the "True" Words, causing both his divine soul and body to resonate.

In that moment, Gao Xuan seemed to merge with the entire Celestial Realm and the boundless Primordial Qi.

Body, divine soul, thoughts, consciousness—they all vanished. Gao Xuan merely sensed a resonance with the infinite universe.

This feeling was so grand and profound, so wondrous and divine.

Gao Xuan felt he was the sky, the earth, the Primordial Qi, the spirituality, everything.

The limitations of the individual life were utterly transcended.

Gao Xuan became incomprehensibly vast, capable of encompassing everything, understanding everything...

This marvelous experience surpassed all sensory perceptions, all fluctuations of thought, all emotional forces. freewebnovёl.ƈom

Gao Xuan was deeply enchanted and found it hard to extricate himself.

Until, amidst the endless resonance, he heard an urgent cicada cry that jolted him awake, freeing his divine soul from the resonance with the heavens and earth.
