Eternal Life by Daily Divination
Chapter 357 - 221: The Demonic Seed’s Weakness, City of Puppets
Among them was information about the Demon Planting Technique.
According to the records.
The Demon Planting Technique was not impossible to counter.
Although Mo Qingkuang was tyrannical and arrogant ten thousand years ago, he still found himself in near-death situations multiple times.
"The Sect’s ancient texts record that Divine Sense Techniques can counter the Demon Planting Technique."
"Divine Sense Techniques?"
Li Chang’an’s heart stirred as he thought of his own Divine Splitting Technique.
However, that particular technique had no offensive capabilities.
Zhao Ming continued, "That ancient text describes that for every Bloodline Mo Qingkuang planted, he had to split off a wisp of his Divine Sense and attach it to the Bloodline. This was how he could sense the status of the Bloodline at any time."
"So that’s how it is."
Li Chang’an thought of Murong Kang.
Murong Kang could also sense the status of his Bloodlines and control them to self-destruct.
"This means the more Bloodlines Mo Qingkuang planted, the more of his Divine Sense he had to split off, and the weaker his own core Divine Sense became!"
A weakened Divine Sense.
For an ordinary Cultivator, this wasn’t much of a weakness.
In the current Cultivation Immortality Realm, there were only Cultivation Techniques and Magic for Magical Power and the physical body.
There was nothing that specifically targeted the Divine Sense!
The Cultivation Immortality Realm ten thousand years ago was the same.
It was for this very reason.
When Mo Qingkuang first rose to power, he was virtually unstoppable.
His Magic was tyrannical, and he could simultaneously control countless Bloodline-implanted Cultivators to fight his enemies. He was hailed as invincible within his cultivation stage, and even killing those in higher stages was easy for him.
At the time, the major Righteous Sects and Noble Families couldn’t understand. How could such a heaven-defying Cultivation Technique exist in the world?
’Doesn’t this technique have any weaknesses?’
"Later, someone finally discovered its weakness."
As he spoke, a Spiritual Light flashed in Zhao Ming’s hand, and an ancient-looking book appeared.
He opened it in front of Li Chang’an, turning to the last few pages.
"Daoist Li, look..."
These pages recorded a world-shaking battle. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
It was Mo Qingkuang’s first battle after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
Back then, his arrogance was boundless, and he was wildly untamable. Although he had only just reached the Nascent Soul stage, he already proclaimed himself invincible among his peers, claiming that not even a Great Cultivator at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul could do anything to him.
However, this battle completely extinguished his arrogance.
This was because a Righteous Nascent Soul Cultivator at the time had unexpectedly obtained a Divine Sense attack technique in an Ancient Secret Realm.
He too joined the battle to encircle and annihilate Mo Qingkuang, and he used the Divine Sense Technique.
He hadn’t expected it to have much effect.
After all, Mo Qingkuang’s performance had been simply too heaven-defying; he was still handling the siege of a group of Nascent Soul Cultivators with ease.
But to his surprise...
After he unleashed the Divine Sense Technique, the many Bloodline-implanted Cultivators under Mo Qingkuang’s control suddenly went haywire.
Furthermore, Mo Qingkuang himself looked as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer. His face turned deathly pale, and his aura became chaotic.
In the end, he was forced to break through the encirclement and flee, heavily injured.
It was only after that battle that everyone finally understood.
The Demon Planting Technique was powerful, but it was not without its weaknesses.
"Daoist Li, its weakness is the Divine Sense!"
Zhao Ming pointed to the contents of the book, explaining it to Li Chang’an.
"I only learned after reading this book that Divine Sense Techniques actually exist. It’s just that these kinds of techniques have long since been erased by time, and they’re now impossible to find."
"If another Mo Qingkuang were to appear, I’m afraid no one could stop him."
As he spoke, Zhao Ming couldn’t help but look a little wistful.
As a Demon Cultivator, he naturally wanted to possess such a powerful Cultivation Technique himself.
Unfortunately, everything had been submerged by the tides of ten thousand years.
Not long after Mo Qingkuang advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, he vanished and was never seen again, taking the Demon Planting Technique with him.
Some speculated that he had been jointly killed by the major Righteous Sects.
Others believed he was hiding somewhere, secretly improving the Demon Planting Technique in an attempt to compensate for its weakness related to the Divine Sense.
Regardless, ten thousand years had passed, and it was all meaningless now.
"If someone could truly compensate for the Divine Sense weakness, then this Cultivation Technique would be utterly invincible," Zhao Ming couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
It should be known that Divine Sense Techniques were a double-edged sword.
According to the book’s description, using a Divine Sense Technique was extremely dangerous.
If one encountered someone with a stronger Divine Sense, it was highly likely to damage one’s own Divine Sense, leading to confusion or even madness.
After reading the contents of the ancient book, Li Chang’an fell into deep thought for a long time.
His current Divine Sense was comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivator.
’If I could learn an offensive Divine Sense Technique, perhaps I could easily defeat Murong Kang.’
Unfortunately, this type of technique was incredibly hard to find.
’I wonder if the Three Great Sects and the Seven Great Noble Families have any.’
After a while, the two concluded their transaction.
Zhao Ming left with a large pile of Spirit Stones, promising to bring Li Chang’an more Souls soon.
Li Chang’an, in turn, sought out some of his acquaintances in the Black Market, such as Luo Baitong, to ask about Divine Sense attack techniques.
But without exception, none of them knew anything.
Li Chang’an had no choice but to leave the Black Market and head to Yellow Crane Immortal City.
Before long, he arrived at the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower and asked Shopkeeper Jin Yue.
"Manager Jin, does the Jin Family have any Divine Sense Techniques for sale?"
"No."
Jin Yue shook his head repeatedly, feeling strange inside.
’Li Chang’an is different from other Foundation Establishment Cultivators. Every time he comes to the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, he makes some outrageous request, like the Cyan Profound Spirit Liquid before, and now a Divine Sense Technique. Things like that... even if we had them, we could never put them up for sale.’
Afterward, Li Chang’an went to other shops to ask around.
But the answers he received were all consistent: there were no Divine Sense Techniques.
If such a technique were to appear, it would undoubtedly cause a massive uproar.
’I can’t rush this. I’ll have to plan it out slowly.’
Li Chang’an temporarily gave up the search.
His next focus would be on cultivating the Venerable Soul Banner and the Evil Soul.
