Free Web NovelChapter 1238: Chapter 417: Riding Solo into Formation, Swallow Thieves Dominate Body (Monthly Ticket 17500)
Xiang Bei, as arrogant as he may be, would never truly underestimate the pride of Qi Country.
A national prodigy capable of representing the Overlord Country in battle could never be weak.
Therefore, though he defeated Bai Yuxia in three punches, driving him to the brink of death, in the face of Qi Country’s prodigy, Xiang Bei immediately brought out his trump card and initiated a Divine Soul Battle. freēwēbnovel.com
Born with the Double Pupil Phenomenon, his control over Divine Soul Strength far surpasses ordinary people. Inheriting the traditions of Great Chu’s prestigious Xiang Family, he had already mastered numerous Soul Killing Methods at the Inner Mansion level.
Among his peers at the same cultivation realm, he had never met a cultivator who could rival him on the Spiritual Soul Level.
Once he had wanted to test out Dou Zhao’s Body Soul Decay technique, but by the time he had perfected his skills, Dou Zhao, invincible in Chu’s Inner Mansion, had already ascended to the Outer Building.
Thus, he had missed the opportunity.
But in Chu, whether it was Zuo Guangshu of the Zuo Family or Chu Yuzhi who hailed from the military with the nation as his surname, both had been defeated by his hand.
Only Qu Shunhua of the Qu Family could pose some trouble, yet that trouble never amounted to an actual threat.
Later, even against Dou Min who had also obtained the Fighting Golden Body and mastered the Seven Forms of Battle, he tested the Body Soul Decay technique, which proved his reputation well deserved!
Many in Chu believed that even as the first of Chu’s Inner Mansion, he did not have the ruling power that Dou Zhao had at the Inner Mansion level, nor could he compare to Zuo Guanglie who at the age of fifteen had won the Yellow River Gathering.
But in his view, that was simply because confrontations at the Spiritual Soul Level weren’t easily recognized for their impressiveness.
Often, the difference between life and death is a single step.
Of course, at yesterday’s Guanhe Platform, Dou Zhao’s strike with the Body Soul Decay broke through Gan Changan’s Divine Travel, prompting him to reassess the technique’s power. Moreover, Gan Changan’s Divine Travel demonstrated a level of Divine Soul Strength that surpassed his.
But once he too reaches the Outer Building and establishes the Four Saint Towers, his Spirit and Soul Power will not be comparable to what it is now.
Heavy Pupils, a birth phenomenon, can be considered an innate Divine Skill, connected to the first Inner Mansion from birth. As one grows in age and cultivation, a Divine Power Seed directly manifests in the first Inner Mansion.
Or rather, it can be said to be the external manifestation of the Divine Power Seed itself.
It is a transcendental gift that one possesses from birth.
Possessing innate phenomena, cultivators transition from Teng Long to the Inner Mansion without any barriers. Before the great overhaul of the path of cultivation, they were also seen as the geniuses who directly aspired to the Divine Power Realm.
Through ancient and present times, history records three types of Double Pupil Phenomenon.
They are: Twin Horizontal Suns.
The Sun and Moon Reside Together.
And the Heavenly Hound Devouring the Sun!
Externally, they are characterized by: Pair of round pupils side by side, crescent moon opposite round pupil, and large and small round pupils embedded together. [∞, o）, ◎.]
Among these three Double Pupil Phenomena, the Twin Horizontal Suns phenomenon has the most delicate control over Divine Soul Strength, which is naturally double that of ordinary people.
The Double Pupils that Xiang Bei possesses are precisely the Twin Horizontal Suns!
The longer he cultivates, the higher his realm, the greater the gap between his Divine Soul Strength and that of ordinary cultivators.
Xiang Bei naturally has absolute confidence in his own Divine Soul Strength.
Abandoning physical trials, he invaded Tongtian Palace right from the start and initiated a battle of the spirit, exactly because he highly regarded the national prodigy of the Overlord Country.
Respecting Qi Country is to respect Chu, to value the opponent is to value oneself.
Progenies from countries other than the Overlord Country naturally wouldn’t be considered rivals.
In Xiang Bei’s Twin Horizontal Suns Double Pupils, a picture scroll unfolds in an instant.
Vast and ancient, as if with the ringing of swords and guns, the neighing of warhorses, and the whoosh of arrows raining down, the killing intent was fierce.
This is the Xiang Family’s secret Soul Killing Method, not passed down - the Single Horse Enter Formation Map!
The first thing that appears in this picture scroll is the "battlefield environment."
Every detail of the scenery within the "scroll" is vividly lifelike.
One sees the sea waves rippling across the Heaven and Earth Lonely Island, where a mighty dragon lies coiled.
This "dragon" is well-nurtured, with hidden divine might and radiant scales and horns.
It represents the fundamental root of one’s body, the foundation of Transcendence.
It is the external manifestation of the Divine Power Realm of Qi Country’s prodigy!
Xiang Bei himself, armed with a halberd and riding a horse, also steps into this picture scroll.
The person is a Soul Manifestation, and the steed beneath him forms from Divine Soul Strength. Only the halberd in his hand, called World Surpassing, is real.
Xiang Longxiang, one of the world’s famous generals, wielded this weapon.
During the battle in the valley, as commander of the Chu Army, Xiang Longxiang died amidst the army, trampled under a horde of horses; his head hung in Xianyang.
His lifetime glory shattered to dust.
Only this world-renowned weapon was sent back by him before his death, a legacy to the Xiang Family’s heir.
No one but Xiang Bei could shoulder its legacy.
Now, gripping the World Surpassing halberd whose spirit manifests, Xiang Bei rides the dark horse, entering the fray alone!
The horse gallops over the green waves, leaping onto the Heaven and Earth Lonely Island. The manifested Divine Soul form still fierce and aggressive, Xiang Bei pushes forward, raising his great halberd high and smashing it directly at the mighty dragon!
The Tongtian Palace naturally repels foreign elements and maintains itself as a small world that naturally protects its own, expelling external forces.
If Tongtian Palace were compared to a city, it would not obstruct the forces of Path Origin, Divine Soul, and various other forces from entering and exiting. The "Guards" would merely inspect and often allow passage.
Because the Tongtian Palace is constantly transmitting power at every moment, it is the source of one’s physical driving force and the basis of Transcendence. Prohibiting the entry and exit of forces would be like crippling one’s own martial abilities.
With this analogy.
Jiang Wang’s Soul Stealth Snake invasion is akin to an assassin lurking, disguising as "ordinary civilians", sneaking into the city and then revealing their ferocious true nature.
Whereas the Xiang Family’s Single Horse Enter Formation Map connects two Tongtian Palaces and directly launches a fierce assault!
In some sense, the Secret Technique of the Single Horse Enter Formation Map constructs an attacking channel that makes a strong attack possible.
The difficulty of breaking into the Tongtian Palace by these two methods is incomparable.
