I Can Fix My Talent in Hundred Lives-Chapter 408 - 335: Circulation Stars Primordial Magnetic Termination Seed
After narrowly winning the first battle against Liu Xuan, Chen Sheng was about to adjust his breathing to recover, when suddenly, the array hub in the center of the battle platform emitted a glazed, milky-white spirit light.
This light was not ordinary spiritual power, but contained a strand of "Law of Life" Source Qi, hanging down like an inverted galaxy, precisely enveloping his form.
At the moment the spirit light touched his body, Chen Sheng felt a warmth at the Baihui point, a gentle power flowing along his meridians, rapid recovery akin to long-awaited rain after drought.
He looked up to see the protective array patterns at the edge of the platform echoing with the sky, the patterns circulating the mechanism preset for the state competition — specifically for repairing the origin of cultivators whose Dao Foundation was depleted in fierce battles.
After half a stick of incense, when Chen Sheng rose, the mana within him had restored to perfection, and his overall state returned to peak.
"Such power is truly wonderfully mysterious!"
Chen Sheng marveled in his heart, the Cyan Nether Sword lightly trembling in his hand, the sword’s body interwoven with six-colored flowing light forming a Tai Chi Illusion, the sword’s ringing as clear as a primordial thunder, causing the dust of the battle platform to slightly rise.
The white light of the teleportation array suddenly intensified, illuminating the second opponent stepping forth from the light.
The newcomer wore a brown-gold Daoist robe, with a broadsword at his waist inscribed with the ancient characters for "Mixed Cave," his figure as imposing as a Kunlun Jade Pillar — it was Zhao Yun, disciple of the "Mixed Cave Path" from Quanzhou Mansion.
As he landed, a grayish halo rose around him, within which the space twisted madly, indicating he had cultivated the "Mixed Cave True Power Secret Skill" to a profound realm.
"Venerable of Life-Annihilating from Jiuli Mansion, Liu Xuan was defeated by your hand, now I shall witness your Sword Dao!"
Zhao Yun’s voice thundered like a bell, gripping his broadsword with both hands and slashing diagonally, the grayish blade light instantly surged ten zhangs, a miniature black hole faintly visible within, devouring all air in its path, even twisting light into a spiral.
This strike was not mere brute force suppression, but drawing upon the Mixed Cave Dao Principle to induce space collapse.
Chen Sheng tread lightly, his form like willow catkins retreating in the wind, the Cyan Nether Sword traced a cyan arc, the Wood Dao Principle transforming into countless vines attempting to entangle the blade light.
But as the vines touched the Mixed Cave blade light, they were instantly consumed and dissolved.
"Such domineering Dao Principle!"
Chen Sheng’s sword technique changed, intertwining black and white qi into a Tai Chi Diagram in front of him.
The Mixed Cave blade light clashed against the Tai Chi Diagram, the black and white qi fiercely rotating, layer by layer resolving the collapsing space.
After three moves, Chen Sheng had gauged the opponent well, Zhao Yun could not yet manifest Mixed Cave True Power for long, his displayed strength only marginally exceeded Chen Xihua, not difficult to handle.
"Now it’s my turn!"
Before Chen Sheng’s words fell, the Cyan Nether Sword’s six-colored flowing light surged, transforming into five miniature Divine Mountains, encircling Zhao Yun within.
Zhao Yun roared furiously, slashing with the broadsword, the Mixed Cave blade light striking against the Divine Mountain, yet being obstructed layer by layer by the sharpness of the Gold Dao Principle and the thickness of the Earth Dao Principle.
When Zhao Yun’s Dao Principle wore down by half, Chen Sheng finally unleashed his finishing move:
"Yin Yang Reversal, Five Elements Return to Silence!"
The six-colored flowing light converged into a Sword Gang, the front of which condensed the Annihilation Rune, directly piercing the core of the Mixed Cave halo.
Zhao Yun felt his internal Mixed Cave True Power instantly dissolved, the broadsword flew from his grasp, the Cyan Nether Sword already poised at his neck, the annihilation intent from the sword causing a tremor in his Dao Foundation.
"A good defeat!"
Zhao Yun laughed heartily, the Mixed Cave halo dissipating, and as the white light of teleportation ascended, he did not forget to shout: "If fate allows, I shall consult you again someday!"
...
The third battle, Zhou Yuan from Yun State Daoist Academy’s Inner Sect stepped forth from the array, clad in green robe and holding a folding fan,
"Fellow Daoist Life-Annihilating, the academy head personally transmitted the ’Flowing Cloud Secret Skill,’ please evaluate!"
Zhou Yuan lightly waved the folding fan, as it opened and closed, countless Wind and Thunder Powers fell like meteor showers, forming whirlpools of wind and thunder, with chaotic currents of Dao Principles within, appearing more exquisite than Zhao Yun’s Mixed Cave Dao Principle.
Chen Sheng dared not be careless; he was most apprehensive of Dharma Master Secret Skills. Previously, with the example of Venerable Wuyue, such skills were indeed perfect and unshakable.
The Cyan Nether Sword stood in front of him, black and white qi swirling, adopting a defensive posture against the enemy. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
The dragon of wind and thunder collided against the Yin Yang Five Elements Atlas, the force of the Five Elements shook violently, the sound of metallic clashing echoed throughout the Martial Arts Arena.
After thirty rounds, Chen Sheng gradually eased; although the opponent mastered the Integration Secret Skill, it was clearly lacking in depth, not giving that unshakable feeling.
After a stick of incense, Chen Sheng defeated him, pondering in his heart: "Though the secret skill is exquisite, the individual falls short in essence."
...
In the first three battles, Chen Sheng’s luck was good, not encountering truly strong opponents, securing consecutive victories.
But the fourth battle was different, the teleportation array on the battle platform suddenly erupted with purple-gold divine light, the light shooting straight to the skies.
In the purple-gold light, a figure walked out slowly, the young man dressed in a purple-gold daoist robe, his expression as cold and sculpted as ice, he was Mu Yu, the direct disciple of the Nine Refining Dharma Master.
As soon as he landed, the battle platform violently shook, a golden halo emerged around him, within the halo faintly appeared ancient wilderness illusions, countless dao principle runes circulated within the halo, evolving into a Dao Domain.
"Jiuli Life-Annihilating?"
Mu Yu’s voice was as cold as profound ice, the golden halo around him suddenly expanded.
Chen Sheng felt his whole body sink, as if pressed by millions of mountains, he could not move at all, even his dao principles were forcibly restrained.
The audience stood in silent death, even the Void Refining Great Powers leading each state mansion looked grave:
"The Heaven Refining Secret Technique has been cultivated to such a level, under such Dao Domain suppression, not to mention Divinity Transformation, even ordinary Void Refining cultivators cannot resist!"
The result was as expected, with just one move, Chen Sheng lost, cleanly and thoroughly, he also realized how formidable true prodigies were.
...
Above the skies, the cloud sea surged like waves, nine Integration Dharma Masters either sitting on clouds or standing in void, all surrounded by faint law halos.
In front of them, the real-time battle scenes of a hundred battle platforms unfolded like scrolls, every sword light, every dao principle collision was clearly presented, even the subtle expressions of the cultivators were not missed.
Nine Refining Dharma Master in a purple-gold daoist robe, raised his hand pointing below to platform seventeen:
"Fellow Daoist Hong Jue, look at that boy from Jiuli Mansion, walking the same ending path as you."
Nine Refining Dharma Master’s thought swept over everyone’s hearts like spring breeze, with a teasing smile.
The named Dharma Master Hong Jue, leaning informally on a condensed star cloud cluster, dressed in a moon white daoist robe, had a face with mild middle-aged features.
He was surrounded by starlight specks, each point spinning like miniature stars, emitting the heavy awe of primordial magnetic power.
He was the pioneer of the Yunlu Dao Lineage, spending ten thousand years condensing the "Circulation Stars Primordial Magnetic Termination Seed," annihilating all with star primordial magnetic power, a pinnacle existence on the ending path.
Upon hearing Nine Refining Dharma Master’s words, the silver light in Hong Jue’s eyes flickered, nearby Evergreen Dharma Master laughed first.
This founder of the Jiuxiao Dao Lineage wearing azure robes, surrounded by green breath, with a faint ancient pine illusion, renowned for the "Eternal Evergreen Law" as an Integration Great Cultivator.
His intent carried the lush vitality of grass and wood growth:
"That boy under a thousand years can merge Yin Yang and Annihilation into one sword, though framed by Five Elements Sword Dao, it’s genuine creation from scratch."
He paused, eyes sweeping over Chen Sheng’s sword technique adjustments, with appreciation in his intent:
"Though the swordsmanship seems immature, dao principle shifts still clumsy, yet the essence of ending is solid, walking the orthodox ending path."
"A pity, lacking esteemed guidance, if someone organized him a bit, his future is boundless."
As the words fell, Evergreen Dharma Master turned to Hong Jue, with a teasing tone in his thought:
"If Fellow Daoist Hong Jue is not interested in this boy, why not let him join my sect."
"Though I focus on evergreen, my foundational guidance is sufficient, ensuring his Path of Ending Sword advances within three years."
At this, the other Dharma Masters chuckled.
They, living tens of thousands of years, sight beyond Mansion Master Bai and other Pavilion Master Level cultivators, immediately recognizing the precision and flaws in Chen Sheng’s swordsmanship.
The Five Elements framework seemed old-fashioned, but the use of Annihilation Dao Principle showed innovation, coupled with his age under a thousand years, such a seed deemed a once-in-a-millennia encounter.
Dharma Master Hong Jue had observed Chen Sheng for some time, from his sword dao breaking arrays against Liu Xuan, to piercing nodes against Zhao Yun; every sword move stirred his heart.
At this moment hearing Evergreen Dharma Master’s contention, he quickly sat upright, surrounding star primordial magnetic power solidifying abruptly, his tone carrying indisputable seriousness:
"Fellow Daoists do not jest, this young one’s ending dao principle shares origin with my Yunlu Dao Lineage, allowing me to guide him is most apt."
Nine Refining Dharma Master clapped with laughter, his thought full of teasing:
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Hong Jue intends to protect his food?"
"In that case, the ’Star Drunk’ hidden for fifty thousand years cannot stay hidden, after the state competition, we’ll have to visit your Yunlu Dao Lineage for a drink."
"Indeed! After five thousand years, it’s time for us to taste the freshness!"
