Chapter 66: Chapter 65: Vast World! Celestial Divine Technique! Altering Memories

King Zhenyue’s true ace in the hole: the Seventh-Grade Divine Technique, Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain!

It had finally fallen into Su Bai’s hands.

’But this Seventh-Grade Divine Technique is actually incomplete?’

’Doesn’t that mean the complete version must be a grade far beyond Seventh Grade?’

’It could be Eighth Grade... or even the legendary Ninth Grade!’

At that moment, Su Bai suddenly recalled the vision he had just seen.

King Zhenyue had obtained this Divine Technique by a stroke of luck from some Immortal Mountain Spiritual Land outside the borders of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Furthermore, in that Immortal Mountain Spiritual Land, Su Bai had relived the memory as if he were King Zhenyue.

He had witnessed a truly stunning sight!

Above the spiritual land, countless Purple Gold Palaces clustered together, floating high in the air and shrouded in a vast immortal mist—it was like a peerless Immortal Realm!

And in the center of the palaces, a colossal golden pillar covered in dense, intricate patterns pierced the heavens!

It emanated an ethereal and lofty aura.

This was the very source of the Seventh-Grade Divine Technique, Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain, that King Zhenyue had obtained.

Snapping back to his senses, Su Bai mused for a moment before whispering softly.

"This world... it might be even more mysterious than I imagined."

’Outside the Great Xia Dynasty, there might be even more prosperous lands and more powerful factions!’

’There might even be the Immortal Gods of legend!’

Su Bai had an intuition.

In this vast world, the Great Xia Dynasty he was in was likely just a drop in the ocean.

「In his personal quarters.」

As Su Bai carefully examined the Seventh-Grade Divine Technique he had just obtained, he found something unexpected.

’My physique doesn’t seem to have grown noticeably stronger!’

A moment later, Su Bai came to a realization.

’It’s not that King Zhenyue’s Divine Technique isn’t powerful.’

’Rather, it was that King Zhenyue had only cultivated this Seventh-Grade Divine Technique to the 3rd Layer. The technique’s Realm was simply too low!’

’Besides, my physique has already reached a very high level thanks to multiple High-Grade Body Cultivation Techniques!’

’It’s difficult to improve it any further!’

Su Bai recalled the punch he had used to slay King Zhenyue.

For that punch, Su Bai had fused the Power of Divine Thought, the Demon Evil Qi from the Celestial Fire Demon Cave, and his own Golden Purple True Qi.

These three powers, perfectly integrated and combined with the Golden Body Technique!

This had fully unleashed the formidable might represented by the one hundred thousand Experience Points he had accumulated beyond the Returning to the True Realm!

’That punch...’

Su Bai carefully contemplated that punch and came to a conclusion.

’It could kill any ordinary expert in the Spirit Transformation Realm!’

King Zhenyue had trained bitterly for many years to finally cultivate the Seventh-Grade Divine Technique, Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain, to the 3rd Layer, which had strengthened his physique considerably.

This was already a commendable achievement.

Unlike ordinary cultivation techniques that required diligent and arduous practice, the cultivation of Divine Techniques placed the greatest importance on a Martial Artist’s comprehension.

If their comprehension was lacking, no matter how diligently a Martial Artist trained, they could not elevate a Divine Technique to a higher level.

The fact that King Zhenyue had managed to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm before the age of thirty was a testament to his extraordinary talent.

Unfortunately, even so, he had spent over thirty years...

...just to cultivate the Seventh-Grade Divine Technique, Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain, to the 3rd Layer!

That was why, when faced with Su Bai’s punch, King Zhenyue was utterly unable to resist, even when he channeled all the True Qi in his body.

He was killed on the spot.

However, if King Zhenyue had managed to advance this Divine Technique to a higher level, the outcome might not have been so certain.

According to the description of the Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain Divine Technique:

At the first layer, one can use their True Qi to condense the phantom image of a colossal mountain, and their physique will increase slightly.

At the second layer, this phantom mountain can be solidified, greatly increasing one’s defensive capabilities.

At the third layer, one can manifest the Celestial Dragon Dharma Aspect, and their physique is significantly enhanced.

Furthermore, they can use their True Qi to repair their own injuries.

As long as their True Qi is not depleted, they can continuously repair their injuries!

King Zhenyue had cultivated this Divine Technique to the 3rd Layer, which is why he was able to use his True Qi to rapidly heal his wounds when Su Bai’s first punch injured him.

However, when faced with Su Bai’s second punch, it was futile, even when King Zhenyue channeled every last bit of his True Qi.

His Divine Sense was instantly obliterated, and his Celestial Dragon Dharma Aspect rapidly crumbled.

’If I could cultivate this Seventh-Grade Divine Technique, Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain, to its highest level—the 9th Layer!’

’I would be able to transform into a true Celestial Dragon, shouldering a boundless mountain, with an immortal body! I could suppress all enemies in the world!’

Any Divine Technique of the Seventh Grade or higher is a top-tier Divine Technique in the truest sense.

They lead directly to the Divine Platform Realm!

But raising these Divine Techniques to their highest level is as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

Su Bai did a quick calculation and found that the amount of Experience Points required to raise Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain to the 9th Layer was enough to make his scalp tingle.

One can only imagine how ridiculously difficult it must be.

’I still don’t have enough Experience Points saved up. I’ll set aside this Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain technique for now.’

Su Bai thought for a moment and then set the Divine Technique aside.

With his current powerful physique, even raising Celestial Dragon Carrying the Mountain to the 4th or even 5th Layer wouldn’t bring him any significant improvements.

It would be better to put his Experience Points toward his Realm and achieve a breakthrough first.

After all, one’s Realm is the foundation.

Cultivation Techniques and Divine Techniques are, in the end, just magnificent structures built upon that foundation.

If the foundation is weak, no matter how exquisite the structure, it will one day collapse.

Next, Su Bai continued with the prize draws.

Both Tian Mu Saint Son and the Black Lotus Sect Elder, Bai Zai, had been killed by Su Bai.

Each kill granted him one chance to randomly obtain a cultivation technique.

And Su Bai hadn’t obtained their Cultivation Techniques yet!

And Su Bai was quite covetous of the Tian Mu Saint Son’s Celestial Eye Divine Techniques.

During the previous prison riot, the Tian Mu Saint Son had unleashed his formidable Celestial Eye Divine Techniques.

He had turned several Prison Guards into his puppets!

If this Divine Technique was used properly, Su Bai’s arsenal of combat tactics would become even richer.

’Draw!’

After he made the selection, a scene slowly materialized in Su Bai’s mind.

In the vision, Su Bai once again took on the perspective of the Tian Mu Saint Son.

On the day of the Saint Son’s birth, the sky churned with vast amounts of Demonic Qi. Suddenly, a sharp silver glint shot down from high above, trailing wisps of Demonic Qi.

It landed right between the Tian Mu Saint Son’s eyebrows!

Su Bai understood at once and was rather surprised.

’I never would have thought that the Tian Mu Saint Son’s Divine Technique...’

’...was actually a Celestial Divine Technique!’

So-called Celestial Divine Techniques were Divine Techniques gifted by the heavens to a living being on the day of their birth for one reason or another.

Generally speaking, such Divine Techniques were exceptionally powerful.

A moment later, Su Bai returned to his senses.

[Divine Technique: Celestial Eye Divine Techniques (Fifth Grade), Realm: 4th Layer (25,600/500,000)]

’The grade is not bad at all!’

Su Bai nodded to himself after seeing the specific details of the Celestial Eye Divine Techniques.

It was a Fifth-Grade Divine Technique.

After a closer look, Su Bai discovered that at the 5th Layer, the Celestial Eye Divine Techniques...

...were already quite powerful.

As long as the opponent’s Realm was lower than his own, there was a high probability of turning them into a puppet with a single glance.

The lower the opponent’s cultivation and Divine Sense, the greater the probability of turning them into a puppet.

Moreover, as the Realm of the Celestial Eye Divine Techniques increased, this puppet-making ability would also grow stronger.

If he cultivated the Celestial Eye Divine Techniques to the highest 9th Layer, he could even directly alter his target’s fundamental memories!

In other words, with just a single glance, Su Bai could alter their memories and make an enemy who originally hated him...

...transform into his most loyal servant!

This Divine Technique...

...was pretty damn incredible!
