Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao-Chapter 161 - 058: Undying Body, Break Sorrow Secret Technique

Chapter 161: Chapter 058: Undying Body, Break Sorrow Secret Technique

In the Void, the Purple Flame Lotus Seeds were still burning, but amidst the flames of these burning seeds, there were seven Golden Fragments that seemed to be burning as well. Not only that, but there were also things like golden paper scraps around the fragments.

These objects were gradually melting away, and as they dissolved, the world became ancient and mystical. It no longer felt like a space without the breath of life.

"How could this be? Weren’t these things knocked away by Ji TaiXu with a single move? How come they have returned, and in such numbers?"

Zhou Yan’s consciousness extended over. His consciousness could even reach the Purple Flame Lotus Seeds and touch the Golden Fragments.

As his consciousness touched these, Zhou Yan suddenly had a flash of insight into many ancient knowledge about Ancient Arrays. It was as if he had received an epiphany—he suddenly understood.

But at this moment, he was not concerned with these insights. Instead, he attempted to take out the Golden Fragments.

Indeed, the instant Zhou Yan had the thought, a very dissatisfied ’intent’ suddenly transmitted. It was like a child protesting against Zhou Yan for trying to take its food—a very inexplicable feeling.

"This..."

Zhou Yan was dumbfounded.

"Do you want to ’eat’ these things and not let me take them away?"

"Mhmm... Father King don’t take Yanyan’s... Fruit."

A milky voice, indistinguishable between male and female, like that of a baby, appeared in Zhou Yan’s consciousness.

Zhou Yan’s consciousness-formed body suddenly shook, his face showing an incredulous expression as he stared at the clump of Purple Flame Lotus Seeds, shocked to his core.

So, this bizarre thing had indeed come to life, and what’s more, it was calling him ’Father King’? Claiming the ancient Golden Fragments as ’Fruit’? And that it called itself ’Yanyan’?

Zhou Yan stood there dumbstruck, he drew a bit of his consciousness and detonated it. Pain coursed through his will, making him aware that he was not dreaming.

"The ancient Demon Beast Essence Blood, the sensation akin to the King of Ten Thousand Beasts, the Purple Flame Lotus Seeds filled with the Life Energy of the Origin, the Heavenly Destiny Ancient Tea Tree brimming with terrifying intelligence..."

Zhou Yan pondered over everything, and he suddenly realized—the withering of the Heavenly Destiny Ancient Tea Tree must have been caused by this creature drawing away its energy!

And the Essence Blood from those hundred thousand Demon Beasts must have been taken by it as well.

Even the Golden Fragments possessed by spiritualists like Feng Xia and Mo Yuchou had been seized by it.

This seemed to be the most reasonable explanation.

But then, that gigantic finger that could destroy Heaven and Earth, this was certainly not something this baby-voiced little creature could accomplish. So what was it?

Zhou Yan was somewhat puzzled.

"Yanyan, Father King won’t touch your Fruit; you enjoy it to your heart’s content. But Father King’s body has collapsed, and I’m now unable to act, what should we do? Also, are you... a Demon Beast or?"

Zhou Yan hesitated for a moment before asking in a very gentle tone.

Indeed, this time the answer came from within the flames of the Purple Flame Lotus Seed, a happier response: "Father King can just Cultivate here, that’ll be good. In a while, Yanyan will give Father a small technique for recovery... Yanyan, is just Yanyan, not a... Demon Beast."

Yanyan’s speech was still babyish and not very fluent, but the information conveyed was somewhat odd to Zhou Yan.

Just as he was about to ask Yanyan exactly what it was, from within the Purple Flame Lotus Seed, a miniature version of the tea tree suddenly grew at an accelerated rate, flowering and bearing fruit rapidly, and the fruit that emerged was surprisingly a Lotus pod.

Zhou Yan’s consciousness-formed body stiffened, his facial muscles twitching involuntarily.

At that moment, the Lotus pod naturally fell off, releasing a lotus seed.

This lotus seed flew out directly and arrived within Zhou Yan’s consciousness-formed body, then through the consciousness, it entered Zhou Yan’s physical brain.

At that moment, Zhou Yan’s body convulsed suddenly, followed by a new Sudden Enlightenment emerging in his mind!

"The Undying Rebirth Technique! This is the Undying Rebirth Technique of Ji Taichong! And it’s also at the level of Great Perfection understanding! My God, this..."

Zhou Yan was astonished.

In an instant, he had gained the core Secret Techniques of the Taiyin Talisman Scripture, and not just that, it was the limit of complete understanding at the level of Great Perfection!

Zhou Yan’s breathing quickened. Under this insight, his body exploded all at once, and then the blood mist persisted for a long time due to the Tao of life and death.

Then, the blood mist condensed, and a brand new Zhou Yan appeared.

Exactly the same as before, even Zhou Yan felt that each time his body exploded and shattered, it became stronger!

"An Undying Body, this is..."

"However, it seems that with every ’rebirth,’ there is some loss of the ancient Essence Blood Origin... It does injure the foundation a bit, but I have the Purple Flame Lotus Seeds to replenish the Origin. Could this... could this be tailor-made for me?"

Zhou Yan recovered, the sensation of his entire body being shattered was completely gone.

Previously, he thought that even with the Life Origin, it would take at least three days to recover from such a state, but now, he could transform almost without loss by using this constant Tao of blood and energy, allowing himself to achieve an Undying Body!

This was truly terrifying to the extreme!

This, is it the "small trick" Yanyan referred to? Then what is the big trick?

Emperor Qi Sword Body, Undying Body! The invincible ancient Sword Intent, the mighty Xingyi Swordsmanship!

Could this... could this be defying the heavens?

Zhou Yan’s heart shivered with trepidation!

This change caught him truly unprepared, but he suppressed his impulse and once again gathered his consciousness, entering the middle of his brows to communicate with Yanyan.

However, before he even spoke, Yanyan’s somewhat weak voice came through, "Father King, Yanyan is going to sleep again, so sleepy. Yanyan is very hungry and wants lots of fruits, Father King, Yanyan still wants fruits..."

This childish voice gradually faded away, and the golden fragments, like paper scraps, also suddenly disappeared.

The previously vigorous flames had evidently returned to normal at this moment, quiet as water, quiet as the abyss.

"Alright, Father will find you more fruits..."

Zhou Yan’s response echoed between heaven and earth, but Yanyan’s voice had vanished as if it had never existed.

Yet, in his heart, he felt a kind of bloodline sensing, vaguely feeling that within the calm Purple Flame, Yanyan was peacefully slumbering.

Zhou Yan’s heart settled somewhat and at the same time, he also unexpectedly felt a profound sense of responsibility. This child that appeared out of nowhere, no matter what it was, that single ’Father King’ had greatly stirred his heart.

Yanyan must be extraordinary; just by looking at how it could refine the Undying Rebirth Technique, even evolving it, one could get a glimpse of its uniqueness.

But because of this, it seemed Yanyan had also expended a lot of energy, so much so that it had to fall into deep sleep.

At this moment, Zhou Yan felt no joy for his victory, the excitement from obtaining unparalleled techniques earlier also felt as if doused by a bucket of cold water.

Now, he only wanted to find more golden fragments to provide Yanyan with more ’fruits.’

The childishly speaking Yanyan seemed to still be in its infancy stage, and if it were to be ’weaned off’ fruits, this would undoubtedly be a serious matter.

Zhou Yan suddenly imagined many things, but ultimately his thoughts returned to himself, and soon he calmed down.

Such matters were not simple; getting hold of golden fragments was not guaranteed, for things like them were certainly extraordinary.

And before obtaining these items, strength was still the key to everything.

Thus, having calmed down, Zhou Yan’s conscious avatar sat cross-legged beside the Purple Flame. The massive Life Energy and an energy of Enlightenment like the breaths exhaled by Yanyan could bring him vast assistance. It was clear that these were not needed by Yanyan.

It seemed to only like things with ancient runes like those on the golden fragments, and what it devoured were those ancient runes and Tao Rules. What it exhaled was the vast vitality and Enlightenment energy.

These would not disappear within this region of heaven and earth, but would instead persist.

Zhou Yan thus seated himself here, carefully considering the shortcomings of his previous battle, reflecting on the gains from this fight and carefully pondering the Undying Rebirth Technique.

This technique, known as the Undying Body, truly lives up to its name. Its principle is similar to the Huaxia World’s law of energy conservation, valuing the constant state of qi and blood and unchanging body tissues.

If the body structure is broken, then it can naturally be recombined to ensure the completeness of the body.

This is such an ’Eternal Path,’ which makes this ability so twisted.

To grasp this Tao, one must put oneself in desperate situations to survive, to first comprehend the secret techniques of death and despair.

The stronger the secret technique, the more powerful the cultivation technique, and the lesser the Origin is consumed.

At this moment, Zhou Yan was able to use it because his own Soul Destruction Secret Technique completely resonated with this Undying Rebirth Technique.

But just this was not enough, because the Origin loss from one recovery, even though it could be replenished, made Zhou Yan feel a sense of pain. Hence, while in the process of Enlightenment, he was comprehending his second secret technique.

His very own second secret technique. freewēbnoveℓ.com

...

"In the human world, who doesn’t harbor sorrows?"

"Sorrow, the heart of autumn, withered and desolate, difficult emotions to unravel."

"The heart like a twin silk net, within are countless knots."

"To Break Sorrow is to sever the root of all worries. Combining with the Eternal and Undying sentiment within the Undying Rebirth, then this time, I shall comprehend the Break Sorrow Secret Technique!"

"The Break Sorrow Secret Technique, severing the root of anxieties, also brings the enemy instantly into a perfect Eternal Kingdom, where they lose themselves in carefree oblivion!"

"This is defined as a Soul Attack, and now that I am about to achieve a Sword Spirit, as consciousness slowly transforms into Spiritual Sense, the might of Soul Attack will become even more formidable."

...

Zhou Yan immersed himself in comprehension, and within his Superior Water Cultivation Technique, a second significant secret technique emerged. Although it was only in its nascent form, the speed of comprehension next to the Purple Flame Lotus Seed in the Land of Enlightenment was astonishingly fast.
