Chapter 634 The Last Forbidden Secret Technique
Chapter 634 The Last Forbidden Secret Technique
Now, time is his greatest enemy; every second of delay is pushing the Tai Xuan Holy Land into an abyss of no return.
The earth-shattering commotion of the full activation of the grand formation could not possibly escape the notice of the three powerful figures from the three holy lands guarding the gates of Tai Xuan Mountain.
Those old monsters must already be rushing here. Once they realize that such a serious internal turmoil has occurred within the Tai Xuan Holy Land, and that even the mountain-protecting formation has been activated, they will definitely launch a full-scale attack without hesitation!
When that time comes, with internal and external troubles erupting at the same time, their Tai Xuan Holy Land will truly be finished!
"We can't delay any longer... we absolutely can't delay any longer!"
The eyes of the Supreme Lord of the Great Mystery were filled with scarlet blood vessels, and his expression gradually became extremely crazed and ferocious.
Since conventional methods and the ultimate formation were ineffective against his opponent, he had no choice but to use his last trump card.
He was about to unleash a secret technique of the Quasi-Emperor level, created by a Quasi-Emperor peak cultivator from the Tai Xuan Holy Land back then!
This secret technique is called the "Tai Xuan Burning Soul Reversing Heaven Technique".
This is no ordinary powerful technique, but a supreme forbidden art that allows cultivators below the Great Emperor realm to instantly leapfrog and increase their combat power by one major realm!
In other words, he is currently at the peak of the Saint King realm. Once he successfully uses this Quasi-Emperor secret technique, his strength will cross that enormous chasm in a short period of time and directly surge to the Great Saint realm!
However, the price to be paid for this terrifying power, which almost defies the laws of nature, is so tragic and resolute that ordinary people cannot even imagine.
After the secret technique ends, the caster will not only fall into a very long period of weakness, but will also suffer a terrifying backlash from the laws of heaven and earth, causing their own realm to plummet.
The number of realms one advances through secret methods will correspond to the number of realms one will subsequently fall back to!
If it were merely a drop in cultivation level, it might not be the most fatal thing for a Holy Lord who possesses countless cultivation resources.
The real reason why he has regarded this secret technique as a monstrous flood for the past two thousand years is that this secret technique, once used, will completely damage or even burn away a cultivator's core cultivation potential and natural talent foundation!
The tragic scene from two thousand years ago involuntarily surfaced in the mind of the Supreme Saint Lord.
At that time, he was just a proud and ambitious genius who had just broken through to the first level of the Saint Realm.
However, during one of his training expeditions, he was ambushed and surrounded by hostile forces, finding himself in a desperate situation with no chance of survival.
At the most critical moment of life and death, in order to survive, he had no choice but to use the "Tai Xuan Burning Soul Reversing Heaven Technique" for the first time.
That time, with his cultivation at the first level of Sainthood, he forcefully unleashed the combat power of a Saint King at the first level, which was a whole realm higher, slaying all his powerful enemies and reversing the course of events.
But afterwards, the cruel price arrived as expected.
His cultivation level plummeted from the Saint Realm to the first level of the Dao Severing Realm, almost turning him into a cripple.
Although after that, with the almost inexhaustible top-level cultivation resources of the Tai Xuan Holy Land, he spent countless elixirs and medicines, and over a full ten years, he finally cultivated back to the Saint realm.
But from that moment on, the truly terrifying side effects of this secret technique were fully revealed.
Upon regaining his sainthood, he was horrified to discover that his potential for cultivation seemed to be firmly locked up by a rusty iron lock.
The profound mysteries of the laws that were once easy for him to comprehend have become obscure and difficult to understand.
The once smooth flow of spiritual energy became extremely difficult.
From the time he used forbidden techniques two thousand years ago until now, he has cultivated diligently for over two thousand years without lacking any cultivation resources!
More than two thousand years!
However, he was always stuck at the bottleneck of the peak of Saint King, and could not touch the threshold of the Great Saint realm no matter what!
You must know that if this were his aptitude before he used the forbidden technique, with the resources of the Tai Xuan Holy Land, breaking through to the Great Saint realm in two thousand years would be an easy task, and it would even be entirely possible for him to peek into the supreme Quasi-Emperor realm!
This is the price of damaging one's own potential.
It was like an invisible, blunt knife, cruelly severing the future of an exceptionally talented individual.
Today, facing the "Xiao Yan" before him, he was forced to use this forbidden technique for the second time.
The Supreme Lord of Tai Xuan was well aware that he was now over three thousand years old and his vitality was no longer what it used to be.
If he were to forcefully activate this quasi-emperor secret technique again, he would forever lose the possibility of breaking through to the Great Saint realm.
After the secret technique ends, his path of cultivation will be completely severed, and he may even be forced to eke out a living in the low point of the early stage of sainthood until his lifespan is exhausted.
But at this moment, sensing the faint, restless aura of the powerful figures from the various holy lands outside the holy land, and looking at Lin Hanzhou, who was acting ruthlessly and had torn the entire Tai Xuan Holy Land to pieces, he knew that he had no other choice but to retreat.
If this monster isn't suppressed here today, not only will he die, but the entire Tai Xuan Holy Land will also become history today.
"You ungrateful wretch...you beast...you forced me to do this!"
"Even if I am completely crippled today, I will make you pay with your life for the Tai Xuan Holy Land!!"
The Supreme Lord of Tai Xuan let out a mournful and frantic roar, and he suddenly plunged the Azure Glass Sword in his hand into the void.
His hands quickly formed a series of extremely complex ancient hand seals in front of his chest, imbued with an aura of destruction.
"Soul-Burning Supreme Mystery, Defying Fate!"
boom--!!!
As the final hand seal of the Supreme Saint Lord fell, the void within a radius of a hundred miles trembled violently in that instant.
A tangible, scarlet blood mist erupted wildly from every acupoint on the body of the Supreme Profound Saint Master, completely enveloping him in a giant blood-red cocoon.
Amidst the sky filled with blood-red light, the aura emanating from the Supreme Profound Saint Lord surged at an alarming rate!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
His aura instantly broke through the solid bottleneck that had been holding him back for two thousand years at the peak of the Saint King realm. A terrifying pressure that surpassed the scope of the Saint King realm swept across the entire Tai Xuan Holy Land like a storm.
At this moment, the Great Sage descends!
Great Sage Realm, First Level!
Although his Great Sage aura appeared somewhat weak because it was forcibly enhanced through a secret technique, it was still genuine Great Sage-level power!
The difference between the Great Sage and the Sage King is only one word, but their strength and control over the laws of heaven and earth are worlds apart and cannot be compared at all.
