This meant that after deploying the Thunder Peng Netherworld Wings, Jiang Shu could completely evade a missile traveling at ten times the speed of sound simply by relying on his speed. This was merely the entry-level! At the Perfection Realm, he could cover a hundred miles with a single flap of his wings. Coupled with the manipulation of Thunder Power, once such a terrifying presence descended, nothing short of nuclear weapons could frighten Jiang Shu! This was true power!
In just a few moments, Jiang Shu had soared a hundred miles across the heavens and earth. Previously, although he could also levitate, that was merely a technique for manipulating air. If he were actually flying, his speed couldn’t even break the sound barrier.
Letting out a long breath, Jiang Shu’s figure gradually descended from the high sky, dissipating force several times in mid-air before finally landing on the ground.
"It’s good, but the consumption of Primordial Power is too terrifying. It can only be used as a last resort for escaping, quickly creating a distance of hundreds of miles. If used in actual combat, the depletion of Primordial Power would leave me dead before I even knew what happened," Jiang Shu muttered, shaking his head. In just about ten seconds, nearly half of the Primordial Power in his 360 acupoints had been consumed.
If Ancient Forbidden Techniques were graded, the Thunder Peng Netherworld Wings would undoubtedly be in the highest tier. Thinking of this, Jiang Shu’s anticipation for Elder Ming Lei’s mausoleum grew even stronger. If the outer area contained such high-tier Ancient Forbidden Techniques, what treasures might the Inner Circle hold!
"No rush... The restrictions in the Inner Circle won’t be easily broken. Although my combat power has surged, it still falls within the limits of the Acupoint Passage Realm. The Thunder Peng Netherworld Wings merely provide an additional means of survival. I wonder if the restrictions can be forcefully broken... If not for the fear of attracting attention, using a missile wouldn’t be out of the question..."
His chaotic thoughts gradually settled.
Jiang Shu once again entered a state of deep cultivation. Chapters first released on novèlfire.net
Breaking through the Void to reach the ’Imperishable Vision of the Divine’ Realm wasn’t about literally becoming a god. Instead, it signified mastering control over one’s body to such an extent that one could minutely detect and adjust any injury, thereby achieving the theoretical physical peak. Although he had not yet completely reached this realm, with all 360 acupoints open, Jiang Shu was truly just one step away from the ’Imperishable Vision of the Divine’.
He recalled the state of his body when he had deployed the Thunder Peng Netherworld Wings and adjusted his condition accordingly.
On his status panel appeared: The Vermilion Palace Thunder Technique Acupoint Training Chapter, the Crystal Meditation Method, the Earth Evil Tiger Roar Skill, the Thunder Peng Netherworld Wings... He diligently cultivated all these important Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts.
Fifth Rank Mutant Beasts ended up in his stomach.
At his current realm, ordinary Fifth Rank Mutant Beasts, as well as Third and Fourth Rank ones, no longer posed any fundamental difference to him. Unless they were at the level of the Mountain Shaking Giant Ape or the Great Sun Flame Tiger, they generally couldn’t withstand a single throwing knife from him.
"Once I’m back in Qianyuan City... I still need to auction for another set of Treasures... This Small Five Elements Saber Formation has finally reached the end of its lifespan," he thought.
In a battle with a Sixth Rank Fierce Beast, the Treasure Patterns on the Array Plate finally shattered. A giant bear roared incessantly on the ground, its massive body trembling as it stared helplessly while its prized Sixth Rank Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicine was snatched away. It had never imagined that the seemingly insignificant human before it could suddenly leap into the air, spread wings, and take flight, soaring through the heavens and earth! A single flap of his wings covered ten miles!
Returning to his cave, Jiang Shu assessed the gains and losses from the battle.
Within him, the three hundred and sixty-first acupoint, which had long been blocked, finally opened.
Subsequently, Jiang Shu fought with increasing vigor. The entire Grade-A Heaven and Earth Secret Realm became like his personal backyard, with the exception of flying Sixth Rank Mutant Beasts, which he dared not provoke. He had practically fought all the terrestrial types of Fierce Beasts.
His combat experience grew richer, and his control over Primordial Power became more refined. His spiritual cultivation and understanding of Martial Arts grew stronger with each passing day.
He deliberately saved the Sixth Rank Heaven and Earth Treasure Medicines for last.
Their potent medicinal energy surged through every part of his body.
The three hundred and sixty-fifth acupoint... opened!
