Human Clan Defender-Chapter 696 - s Time Decay, Divine Ability Scroll (Four in One Thank you "Kong Kong Wu Se" Silver League)_6

After a pause, he tried using his Divine Sense to touch the bookshelf. Immediately afterward, an invisible giant hand carefully retrieved a book from the shelf. It was undamaged! Seeing the book safely removed, Shen Changqing's heart leapt with joy. However, he dared not get too excited. He steadied his mind and carefully began to flip through the book with his Divine Sense.

This volume contained records of ancient times. In less than fifteen minutes, Shen Changqing had read all its contents.

With the experience of the first book, the rest became much simpler.

Half a day later, after placing the last book back in its original spot, his previously tense spirit instantly relaxed.

Then, Shen Changqing closed his eyes, silently digesting the information he had just acquired.

A long while passed before he finally settled into contemplation.

Name: Shen Changqing

Organization: Great Qin's Demon Suppression Division

Identity: Great Qin Defender Envoy

Realm: Immortal Golden Body

Flesh: Hundred Calamities True Body (Seventh Stage), Soul Refinement Heart Sutra (Not Started, Upgradeable, Fusible), Hundred Refinements True Body (Not Started, Upgradeable), Nether Divine Sutra (Not Started, Upgradeable, Fusible)

Dharma: Banishing Evil Silent Obliteration Finger (Second Layer), Dusk Cangwu (First Layer), Heaven and Earth Slash (First Layer), Cloud-Transforming Finger (Not Started, Upgradeable)

Martial Arts:

Slaughter: 14,535

Divine Skills: 182

Compared to before, the panel now listed three additional martial arts.

Among them, the Soul Refinement Heart Sutra and the Nether Divine Sutra were the martial arts Shen Changqing had been searching for. Both techniques primarily enhanced the Divine Soul, and their tiers were not low. According to martial arts records, if both techniques reached Great Achievement, they could enable a breakthrough to the Domain Realm of ancient times. This realm is equivalent to the latter five stages of a Heaven Being today. However, cultivation methods for the Divine Soul were much more difficult than other martial arts. Relying solely on personal cultivation, the chances of success were extraordinarily slim. Precisely for this reason, a detailed note followed these two techniques. It suggested refining destiny to accelerate the Divine Soul's breakthrough. This would allow these two martial arts to be cultivated to a state of Perfection.

As for the other book, Hundred Refinements True Body, it was a martial art for tempering the Flesh. If one could achieve Great Accomplishment, the Flesh's defensive capabilities could withstand attacks from Domain Realm beings of ancient times.

It could be said that all three martial arts far surpassed ordinary martial arts. Therefore, they were not listed under the Martial Arts category, but rather under the Flesh category.

However, these three martial arts were on a lower level compared to the Hundred Calamities True Body.

However—if the Soul Refinement Heart Sutra and the Nether Divine Sutra could be further fused, then the martial art synthesized from them should not be much inferior to the Hundred Calamities True Body! Shen Changqing thought to himself.

If classified by present realms, these two martial arts, upon reaching Great Achievement, would allow one to reach the latter five stages of a Heaven Being. Previously, when the Divine Heaven Golden Body reached Great Achievement, it also enabled a person to reach the latter five stages of a Heaven Being. Since the effects were the same, their tiers were naturally identical.

Although he currently didn't need any Divine Soul cultivation methods and only needed to focus on tempering his Flesh, being able to fuse a higher-tier Divine Soul martial art would be greatly beneficial to the Human Clan.

However, this place was not suitable for fusion. He would have to wait until he left these Ancient Ruins before making other plans.

「WHEW!」

The moment he exited from the Illusory Realm of the painting, Yi Ning exhaled deeply. Attempting to move his feet, he found his body weakened and almost collapsed to the ground. At that moment, he suddenly realized how much mental energy he had expended while his spirit was ensnared in the Illusory Realm.

Nevertheless, although the exertion was significant, Yi Ning's face broke into a smile as he recalled the memories in his mind.

Sixth-grade Divine Skill—Cloud-Transforming Finger!

What are Divine Skills? Although he had never obtained them before, having gone in and out of Ancient Ruins, he had heard of them. Such methods could not be compared to ordinary martial arts. To put it bluntly, the power of Divine Skills was incomparable to any martial art; it involved the power of Heaven and Earth.

Now, he had acquired the inheritance of a Divine Skill from the painting. Even though he had only gathered some memories and hadn't fully comprehended it, given some time, he might be able to decipher something of this Divine Skill. Then, his own strength would surely advance by leaps and bounds.

With this thought in mind, Yi Ning's face was filled with joy.

It's no wonder this Ancient Ruin, fraught with terrifying dangers, truly holds exceptional opportunities!

First, he obtained a quasi-Dao Arm, and then the inheritance of a Divine Skill. These two things alone were more precious than all the opportunities he had gained from his previous expeditions into Ancient Ruins.

Before entering these Ancient Ruins, he was already in the later stages of a Grandmaster and nearly at the Great Grandmaster stage. Yet now, after so many years, he had only advanced to the Extreme Realm. Certain breakthroughs had indeed been made in terms of realm. But such breakthroughs were insignificant compared to what he had gained this time.

A single quasi-Dao Arm alone was enough to outweigh everything else.

Moving his gaze away from the painting, Yi Ning stood in place to recover for one hour before turning to look elsewhere.

He did not collect the painting. According to their agreement, everything except the spear belonged to Shen Changqing. If Shen Changqing was willing, Yi Ning would have an opportunity to study the Divine Skill in the future. If not, he was prepared to give it up.

"Pavilion Master Yi, have you finished your comprehension?"
