The Immortal Demon Body was born from the blood of the Ancient Gods Clan’s gods and devils. Its defense was so strong that it was famous in the mortal world.
The other Holy Lands, regardless of whether they were righteous or evil, were all having a headache over this.
In order to break through the defenses of the Indestructible Godfiend Body, the various sects and clans kept on researching and thinking of various methods, but the results were different.
However, from a certain point of view, one of the biggest nemesis of the Immortal Body of Gods and Demons was the Ancient Gods Clan’s other ultimate skill, the Underhand Skill.
Of course, the two ultimate techniques countered each other.
Among the Divine Martial Devil Fists of the God Devil Blood, there was a fist technique that could make the Underhand Grand Magic suffer.
For example, Xiang Liu.
As for Zheng Chi’s Nüwa, it had countless uses and could actually resolve the great art of stealing the sky and changing the sun.
Unfortunately, Zheng Chi was severely injured and exhausted, so he was unable to use Nuwa.
When he reached out into the world of the Royal Heavenly Painting, the pressure of heaven and earth, as well as the pressure of the Earth Bodhisattva Wheel, made it so that he couldn’t spare any energy to use the Xiang Liu.
Thus, Zheng Chi could only watch helplessly as Chen Luoyang’s palm pressed down on the dark golden Godfiend body that his Indestructible Godfiend Body had manifested.
A black hole seemed to have appeared in Chen Luoyang’s palm, and the dark golden light kept falling into it.
Zheng Chi’s force was much purer compared to the previous two.
A black glow immediately appeared on Chen Luoyang’s face.
However, in the process of devouring and digesting the other party’s power, his attainments in the Sky-Stealing Sun-Shifting Technique also rose, and he comprehended the subtleties that he had never understood before.
As a result, he became more skilled in using the Sky Stealing Sun Shifting
Technique, and its power became stronger. Everything formed a positive cycle.
The white-haired Zheng Chi looked at Chen Luoyang and slowly sighed. He closed his eyes and didn’t speak.
The black light on Chen Luoyang’s face flickered non-stop until it covered his entire body.
So he withdrew his palm.
Zheng Chi in front of him was even more exhausted.
The Earth Matrix Wheel had long been retracted by Chen Luoyang. Even the power of the Royal Heavenly Painting and the Yellow Earth Edict had been reduced under his control.
If not for that, Zheng Chi, who was already unable to bear the burden, would have been crushed to death long ago.
Elder Zheng opened his eyes and saw Chen Luoyang surrounded by black light.
He sat down cross-legged to regulate his breathing. The black light gradually faded and returned to his body. For the time being, there was nothing unusual.
However, Zheng Chi, who understood the Great Art of Underhand, knew that it was just an appearance.
Next, Chen Luoyang had to continue refining.
Although the Sky Stealing Sun Shifting Technique was evil and overbearing, it also had its limitations. Otherwise, those who cultivated this absolute art would have long become invincible existences.
In that case, the people outside the Ancient Gods Clan would not allow Jiang Yi, Lin Yan, and the others to be so relaxed. They would have long attacked them.
The black light on Chen Luoyang’s body disappeared, but he still sat upright with his eyes closed.
“You…” Zheng Chi asked slowly. Was it really related to a Supreme Martial Artist? Are you the successor of the Supreme Martial Artist?”
Chen Luoyang didn’t reply and continued to sit still.
Zheng Chi quickly noticed something unusual.
On the surface of Chen Luoyang’s body, a faint resplendent multicolored light was revealed.
The multicolored light surrounded the surface of his body and did not dissipate for a long time, as if it was about to condense something.
Zheng Chi was an experienced person and understood what was going on with just a glance.
Chen Luoyang’s actions were clearly to condense his own Sacred Mountain.
When a martial artist broke through to the Martial Saint Realm, he would transcend the mortal world and become a saint. He would shed his mortal body and ignite his own holy fire.
It was the Fire of the Martial Saint.
It was a ball of illusory flames in his body, signifying that a martial artist had ascended to another level of life.
Therefore, the 16th realm was called the Transcendent Realm.
And Chen Luoyang’s actions were clearly going to charge from the 16th realm to the 17th realm.
The illusory holy fire in his body continued to burn, burning all his blood essence and martial arts comprehension into ashes. These ashes were not useless waste.
On the contrarv. it was a further fusion and sublimation.
Ashes accumulated into a mickle, sand into a tower, and finally built a holy mountain that belonged to the martial artist.
Ascending the Holy Mountain meant that a warrior had successfully broken through to the 17th realm of the Martial Path.
It is called climbing the peak.
Sixteenth level, Transcendent.
The seventeenth realm, Ascending the Peak.
Eighteenth realm, Creation Extreme.
Martial artists in these three realms were called Martial Saints.
If one stood at the eighteenth realm and continued to improve, they would have the opportunity to challenge even higher levels, which were the positions of Jiang Yi, Patriarch Blood River, Emperor Chu, and the other giants of the mortal world.
As an expert at the 18th realm, Zheng Chi had walked the path that Chen Luoyang was walking on.
Therefore, one could tell from Chen Luoyang’s appearance that he was attempting to construct a sacred mountain.
The resplendent multicolored light that appeared on the surface of his body began to gradually condense into a towering mountain.
This mountain peak flashed with light and was transparent.
Chen Luoyang himself was wrapped in the mountain peak.
The mountain was still illusory, but it was becoming more and more real at a speed that could be seen clearly with the naked eye.
Zheng Chi knew that the moment the mountain peak completely solidified, it meant that this young man in front of him really had hope of breaking through to the 17th realm.
The old man’s face was as dark as water. He didn’t speak and only watched Chen Luoyang cultivate quietly.
It didn’t take long.
The mountain peak that enveloped Chen Luoyang quickly solidified and turned into a solid entity. It was majestic and majestic, as though it could suppress the entire universe.
Although both sides were enemies and his current miserable state was due to Chen Luoyang, Zheng Chi still admitted in his heart that the sacred mountain that Chen Luoyang had built was even taller than when he was at the 17th realm.
This young man’s talent and strength were truly shocking.
However, Zheng Chi held his breath and focused.
Chen Luoyang hadn’t truly succeeded yet.
The 17th realm was called Peak Ascension.
Not only did he want to build a saint mountain, he also wanted to climb to the peak.
Only when he reached the final step could he be considered to have truly stepped into the seventeenth realm.
If Chen Luoyang still lacked this final step, it could only be said that he had reached the limit of the 16th realm and was still a step away from the true 17th realm.
As a victim of Chen Luoyang’s Sky-Stealing Sun -Shifting Technique, Zheng Chi wasn’t surprised by Chen Luoyang’s current situation.
Even though he was amazed by Chen Luoyang’s extraordinary attainments in the Heaven Underhand and Sun Shifting Technique, which allowed him to refine a large amount of the devoured force in a short period of time, Zheng Chi already understood that Chen Luoyang wanted to use the Heaven Underhand and Sun Shifting Technique to speed up his progress.
No matter how talented a person was, in the process of martial arts cultivation, some necessary grinding and accumulation were also necessary.
The higher the level, the more difficult it was to break through to a higher realm, and the longer the time required.
The difference between people was the amount of time they spent.
At the height of breaking through from the sixteenth realm to the seventeenth realm, no matter how much time was saved, it would take years.
Chen Luoyang used the Heaven Stealing Sun Shifting Art to devour the energy of others to help him complete his accumulation in this aspect.
In Zheng Chi’s view, refining the power he devoured in such a short time was already a miracle.
Chen Luoyang definitely had other things to rely on, and the profound mystery didn’t only lie in the Heaven Stealing Sun Shifting Technique.
Thinking about the relationship between Chen Luoyang and the Supreme Martial Artist, Zheng Chi felt slightly relieved.
However, even though these accumulations could help Chen Luoyang build the Sacred Mountain, they couldn’t allow him to successfully ascend to the peak. The completion of the Holy Mountain meant the accumulation of one’s blood essence.
Ascending to the peak required one to comprehend the truth of martial arts.
In this aspect, it was not something that the Heaven Pilfering Sun Shifting Technique could help with. It required martial artists to study and comprehend it themselves.
Chen Luoyang had just stepped into the Martial Saint Realm not long ago. How could he push open the door to the 17th realm in such a short period of time?
From experience and logic, Zheng Chi didn’t believe it.
But looking at Chen Luoyang’s stance, his thoughts wavered.
Was this young man really going to break through to the 17th realm now?
What right did he have?
However, under Zheng Chi’s gaze, the mountain peak condensed from resplendent multicolored light trembled slightly at this moment.
Then, on the originally empty mountain peak, a figure gradually appeared.
It was Chen Luoyang!
Zheng Chi, who was holding his breath and concentrating, finally couldn’t hold his face anymore. Shock appeared on his face, and it was difficult to hide it.
Chen Luoyang was completely focused.
At this moment, he finally opened his eyes.
He took a deep breath.
The mountain peak beneath him suddenly disintegrated and turned into streaks of resplendent clouds. Then, they were all absorbed back into Chen Luoyang’s body.
Colorful lights flashed on his body, but they quickly disappeared.
His entire body returned to normal and he didn’t look any different from before.
But inside his body, an illusory holy mountain stood upright, and on the peak, holy fire burned fiercely.
With the Sacred Mountain, a martial artist’s offensive and defensive abilities had improved greatly.
Therefore, the average strength of a martial artist at the 17th realm was much higher than that of a martial artist at the 16th realm.
Without the influence of special external factors, it would be extremely difficult for a sixteenth realm martial artist to defeat a seventeenth realm martial artist.
Ever since Emperor Wu, it had become rarer and rarer for the lower to overcome the upper.
Especially the higher the realm, the fewer similar situations.
Those who could cultivate to the Martial Saint realm or even higher were all geniuses that were one in a billion.
Only the geniuses among geniuses and the freaks among freaks could surpass common sense. However, such situations were rare.
Chen Luoyang looked at Zheng Chi and said indifferently, ‘”‘That’s right. The Supreme Martial Artist you’re talking about is my master.”
At this moment, Zheng Chi was silent.
After staring at Chen Luoyang for a long time, he sighed softly and remained silent.
Chen Luoyang didn’t care about him and left the world within the Royal Heavenly Painting, reappearing in the mortal world.
“Chen…” When the crazy man from the Misery Sea saw Chen Luoyang reappear, he smiled and greeted him when his voice suddenly stopped.
The smile on his face couldn’t help but disappear, and what replaced it was an unsuppressable shock.
This number one successor of Misery couldn’t even be bothered with his manners. His gaze couldn’t help but size up Chen Luoyang.
Chen Luoyang had a composed expression as he extended his hand. ‘”‘Thank you.”
. Cult Master Chen is too polite. I’m happy to share your worries.” The round lunatic regained his composure and a smile appeared on his face. He held the Imperial Sky Painting with both hands and handed it back to Chen Luoyang.
Chen Luoyang received the Royal Heavenly Painting and nodded before continuing on his journey.
They were now outside the headquarters of the Ancient Gods Clan.
The two of them moved forward together, and soon the disciples of Ancient Gods Clan came to welcome them.
When everyone saw Chen Luoyang, they were stunned on the spot and even forgot to bow..
