Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times-Chapter 430 - 175: Isn’t this purely messing around?!_2

Chapter 430: Chapter 175: Isn’t this purely messing around?!_2

In fact, logically speaking,

this attack should not be considered a full-power strike from a fifth-layer Divinity Transformation Cultivator. After all, Divinity Transformation Cultivators have many techniques at their disposal, such as the most famous “Domain”. Once a Divinity Transformation Domain is invoked, there wouldn’t be so much laughing and joking around.

The Self-Destruction Term is a full-power strike that crosses a Great Realm. It utilizes the higher concentration and potency of Spiritual Energy from a higher realm and fully stimulates a spell to crush the enemy.

To say it is a full-power strike is not incorrect.

After all, if a fifth-layer Divinity Transformation Cultivator, without resorting to special methods such as Domain, relies solely on their vast and dense Spiritual Energy and current potency, that indeed would be their strongest strike.

However, in actual combat, it is not considered so.

...

But even so!

A full-power strike from a fifth-layer Divinity Transformation Cultivator is not something a Nascent Soul early-stage Cultivator could withstand. At this moment, Kong Ming was covered in scars and bloodstains, and the golden Buddha Light emanating from the Kasaya he wore had already dimmed, now looking no different from an ordinary Kasaya.

Furthermore, around him were seventy to eighty dimmed and shattered Buddha Beads.

Heavy, rasping breaths trembled out of Kong Ming’s throat.

Staggering as he stood his ground, Kong Ming raised his head to look at Chen Qiu opposite him, his eyes full of rage. He was naturally familiar with the tactic of Self-Destruction Term, but he had never imagined Chen Qiu would possess such an entry.

If it had been anywhere else,

dodging this strike would have been the end of it. The Self-Destruction Term requires sacrificing an entry as its price. How many entries do you have to sacrifice for such self-destruction?

But here!

This is precisely the arena, and he has nowhere to dodge!

There is a rule in the fighting arena.

“If the challenger does not defeat the defender within the time of one cup of tea, they automatically concede and are ejected from the arena.”

There is also a corresponding rule.

Within one cup of tea from the start of the challenge, the arena’s barrier will be activated, and within this time, one may not leave the arena. The space of the arena is so limited, having no way to dodge, he could only brace for the hit!

That was a full-power strike from a fifth-layer Divinity Transformation Cultivator!

Kong Ming lowered his head to look at the shattered beads on the ground, his eyes filled with distress. The rosary of one hundred and eight beads was a treasured relic of the Buddhist Sect, an invaluable asset for exorcising demons and evil. Even without unleashing its full power, casually tossing out a single bead and allowing it to self-destruct would result in a full-force attack akin to that of a peak Nascent Soul Cultivator.

But now!

To block the full-force attack of a fifth-layer Divinity Transformation Cultivator, seventy to eighty of his one hundred and eight beads had shattered, and even his treasured Kasaya from the Buddhist Sect had dimmed significantly.

However, no matter.

Kong Ming slowly took a deep breath, and the Shariputra hovering above his Dantian began to spin rapidly. A great amount of Buddha Light swirled out, quickly healing the wounds on his body, and under the shine of the Buddha Light,

the treasured Kasaya and rosaries of the Buddhist Sect also gradually regained their former luster.

Even the shattered Buddha Beads that had fallen to the ground were slowly gathering together, as if they were about to fuse back into one.

…

“It’s the Self-Destruction Term.”

A Nascent Soul peak-stage Cultivator watching from below the arena said, “It’s a fairly rare entry; by paying the cost of sacrificing any given entry, one can unleash a strike comparable to the full force of crossing a Great Realm!”

“It’s a divine-level entry for fighting above one’s level.”

“But it’s not without drawbacks. First of all, attacks from the Self-Destruction Term cannot be locked on by Divine Sense, which means, unless you are very close to your opponent, or if your opponent is too fast, this strike is very likely to miss. Secondly, this entry indeed consumes a lot of other entries.”

“Every so often, you hear news of a Heavenly Pride using the Self-Destruction Term in some Heavenly Dao Secret Realm to defeat enemies above their level.”

This Nascent Soul peak-stage Cultivator looked enviously at Chen Qiu standing in the arena: “Why can’t I be this lucky, to randomly acquire a Self-Destruction Term, given there are no entry jade slips for it, one can only rely on chance.”

“Even Chen Qiu is only at the fifth-layer Nascent Soul stage now. Without any special opportunities, from Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, to Nascent Soul, in total there are only three entry three-choices opportunities, among which Qi Refinement is a fixed random single entry without the three-choices opportunity.”

“Even with Qi Refinement, that’s only four opportunities in total. How did he randomly obtain the Self-Destruction Term, a divine-level entry for early-stage fighting above one’s level, is his luck really that good?”

“Who can say it isn’t,” agreed a man with fluttering white hair standing nearby, similarly heaving a sigh: “I still remember my hands shaking when I faced the three choices during my Nascent Soul breakthrough. Luck is something ephemeral, but it truly exists.”

The Self-Destruction Term was quite well-known on the Xuantian Continent.

A rather rare term for early-stage cultivators to challenge those of higher levels.

Why is it said to be for the early stage? In the later stages of combat, methods are not only about Spiritual Energy. Various Domains, imposing pressure, and so on, are elements that the Self-Destruction Term cannot simulate.

Though quite rare,

its appearance always caused quite a stir, sparking a frenzy to acquire all kinds of entry jade slips, regardless of whether the entries were useful or not. As long as it was an entry jade slip, it was collected.

…

“…”

Chen Qiu looked at Kong Ming, who was preparing to counterattack, and raised an eyebrow slightly. It was no surprise that the owner of a tenth-grade Nascent Soul had such survival tactics, though they seemed somewhat ineffective against him.

But that was to be expected, after all, he was a Heavenly Pride.

Even if this attack had hit him, it wouldn’t have killed him.

However…

His eyes narrowed slightly as he watched the golden Buddha Light spreading out from Kong Ming’s belly, which was actually capable of repairing magic treasures and wounds, and at a rather fast pace. If this Buddha Light were unlimited, wouldn’t it be the equivalent of carrying a spring with oneself?

As long as one didn’t die on the spot, they could recover from injuries quickly, even easily repairing damaged magic treasures.

Nice thing.

He kind of wanted it.

It looked like it was in the Dantian.

The term he had previously detonated was the last useless one he had collected from the Yuan Sect, and now he no longer had any discarded entries. After glancing at his panel, he crushed another term.

“Deficient of the Heavens.”

This term that had accompanied him for quite a while was now used in his self-destruction. This term didn’t actually have much use and didn’t help much with combat power.

But he did feel a bit reluctant to use it, as it had been with him for a long time. He was known for being somewhat nostalgic. The only effect it probably had was that, when closing his eyes during a night of passion, one could experience double the pleasure.

Considered a special auxiliary term.

In certain scenarios, it became an irreplaceable term, achieving effects that no other term could replicate.

But looking at his panel, every other term was more useful than the next, and they were mostly in groups. He couldn’t afford to discard any of them, so the only one he could part with was this one.

First, he dropped two big moves to test the waters and gauge the opponent’s level, then he would take his time and play.

Just so he wouldn’t capsize in the gutter.

After all, someone with only the first layer of Nascent Soul cultivation daring to challenge him must have some confident methods. He was aware of the effects of Kong Ming’s entries and had prepared how to counter them, but he was unclear about the Buddhist Secret Techniques.

He didn’t expect to kill him with one hit; he would first whittle down his state.

But it must be said…

Kong Ming really was tough. His Self-Destruction Term had killed two at the Divinity Transformation Stage in Great Yuan City, but he couldn’t kill someone at the early stage of Nascent Soul. How many treasures do you carry on your body, and that Kasaya is really tough.

Immediately afterward—

Just as Kong Ming had staggered to his feet, full of rage and ready to strike back, the familiar pressure of Divinity Transformation once again enveloped the entire arena. Kong Ming, who paused for a moment, looked up at the thunder cleaving towards him, carrying the pressure of Divinity Transformation.

His expression changed slightly.

Without any hesitation, the Buddha’s texts on his Kasaya burst forth with golden light once more, and a breeze started out of nowhere.

ps: There will be two more updates later, probably by tomorrow morning. I type a bit slowly; it takes me all night to finish.

My schedule has been a bit off these days, typing at night.

But there’s also a plus; I feel like my brain’s sharper at night, even though it makes the update time later than before, more like the underworld.
