976: Chapter 977 Heaven-Burning and World-Destroying Battle Technique

Inside the palace, it wasn't just simple display shelves. Floating jade platforms, rotating astrolabes, flowing rivers of rune light...

Rare treasures, each emitting terrifying energy fluctuations, were placed within like stars surrounding the moon.

There were broken stone tablets breathing out Chaos aura, and broken halberds and spears entwined with purple lightning and thunder light.

There were strange plant roots encased in cold jade boxes that still radiated vigorous vitality.

There were even ancient beast eggs that were sealed layer by layer yet still leaked a heart-palpitating, ferocious aura...

Every item here contained an ancient and powerful force, representing just the tip of the iceberg of the Yin Yang Sect's ten-thousand-year Foundation!

Just by being inside, Yao Delong felt as if his cultivation was being subtly pushed toward progress.

"Tsk tsk tsk... another little fellow has come in?"

Just as Yao Delong's heart was racing, a voice that was slightly childish yet feigned maturity rang out abruptly.

Yao Delong looked toward the source and saw that on the largest floating jade platform in the center of the palace,

at some unknown point, a translucent phantom in the shape of a child about seven or eight years old had appeared.

The phantom wore a miniature version of an ancient Daoist robe, with a jade crown perched crookedly on its head, looking quite comical.

However, the vicissitudes and depth hidden in its eyes made Yao Delong's heart tighten.

The aura of this phantom was actually faintly connected to this entire palace!

"Senior!" Yao Delong immediately composed himself and bowed deeply and respectfully to the phantom.

"Disciple Yao Delong has come by order of the Sect Head, seeking a top-tier Physical Body Divine Ability."

"Physical Body Divine Ability?" The child phantom picked his ear with a small finger, seemingly a bit disdainful.

"In this day and age, there are still little brats willing to suffer through body tempering? Rare, truly rare!" He sized Yao Delong up a few times.

"Hmm... Vitality like a dragon, your Physical Body Foundation is somewhat interesting... Fine, let this old man see what junk is left."

His small hand reached out toward the void as if at random!

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Three blinding rays of Law radiance were suddenly and forcibly pulled from the depths of the palace, like three struggling colored dragons falling into the child phantom's small claws.

The radiance dissipated, revealing three ancient Jade Slips of different materials, all covered in cracks and permeating an aura of endless ages.

A heavy, overbearing aura that seemed to come from the primordial past rushed toward him!

"Here, just these three. They're all old antiques that have been gathering dust in the corner for many years."

The child phantom lazily handed the three Jade Slips forward.

"You know the rules, right? You can only choose one. Once you've chosen, hurry up, make a copy, and leave. Don't disturb this seat's sleep."

Yao Delong suppressed his inner excitement and solemnly took the three Jade Slips, which felt as if they weighed millions of tons.

He cautiously sent his Divine Thought into each of them one by one.

The first Jade Slip: Ancient Star Combat Method!

As his consciousness entered, it felt as if he were instantly placed in the vast starry river! Countless stars projected, collided, and were annihilated within his body!

It drew upon the power of the Star Origin to temper the self, forging an Indestructible Star Body!

At Major Achievement, one could breathe in the power of the starry river; the Physical Body would be a star, and every gesture would pull the great power of galaxies!

However, to Cultivate this art, one needed to draw upon the true Ancient Star Origin as a catalyst to condense a 'Star Dao Seed'!

This item had long been extinct in the Azure Cloud World since the ancient era! Without the Dao Seed, this Divine Ability was practically useless!

The second Jade Slip: Ten Thousand Tribulations Indestructible Body!

As soon as his Divine Thought touched it, he felt as if he were experiencing ten thousand tribulations! Water, fire, wind, thunder, Heart Demon karmic fire, space-time cracks... endless destructive power tempered his entire body!

Its principle was to use ten thousand tribulations upon the body, merging their power to forge an Indestructible Dao Body!

This art was extremely overbearing, and its requirements for willpower were nothing short of cruel.

However, the most critical core lay in the need to use 'Chaos Origin Qi' or 'Grandmist Violet Qi' remaining from the beginning of Chaos to wash and refine the Physical Body Origin!

These supreme divine items from the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth were no longer just missing from the Eastern Region; even in the entire Azure Cloud World, they were already ethereal legends!

Yao Delong smiled bitterly in his heart: "No wonder the path of the Body Cultivator is severed... It's not that people don't want to, but the world has changed and divine items have withered... This simply isn't meant for people to practice!"

These conditions were so harsh they were despair-inducing!

With a final glimmer of hope, his Divine Thought sank into the third Jade Slip: Heaven Burning World Destroying Battle Technique!

His Divine Thought sank in!

Boom—!

It was as if a star had been ignited deep within his Sea of Consciousness!

It was no longer a simple flow of information, but a sea of world-extinguishing fire that burned through the ages, instantly sweeping through his consciousness!

Infinite light and heat, an overbearingly peerless true intent of incineration,

along with the core Profound Truth of this supreme combat method based on the Physical Body extreme and the Origin Dao fire, were violently branded into the depths of his Soul!

Divine Flame World-Extinguishing Combat Method: Use the body as the furnace, the spirit as the fuel, boil the heavens and the seas, and destroy all Daos!

Its three core ultimate offensive techniques made Yao Delong's heart pound wildly:

Heaven-Burning Form: The most overbearing! It draws upon the 'Fire Seed Dao Embryo' within the body to erupt with the Heaven-Burning World-Extinguishing Flame!

Once this fire appears, space distorts like a mirror, Heaven and Earth Origin Qi instantly evaporates into nothingness, and Law chains snap inch by inch!

The most terrifying part is its horrifying characteristic of "not resting until the target is burned to ash"!

Visually, it is a destructive sea of fire that burns the heavens and annihilates all things!

Spirit Refining Form: The most bizarre! It condenses formless and substanceless Divine Soul fire! It kills without a trace!

The victim shows no external injuries, but their Divine Soul is like being thrown into a billion-degree furnace, suffering the pain of Soul-burning and spirit-refining!

Mental confusion is just the beginning; the final outcome is Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering! This technique specifically counters those old monsters with powerful Souls who toy with Divine Souls!

Weapon Melting Form: The most sharp! The ultimate armor-breaking killing move!

It compresses and condenses the Heaven-Burning World-Extinguishing power into a single point, and upon contact with the enemy, it directionally explodes with destructive high temperature and destructive power!

No matter if you have divine art protection, Dao Artifact armor, or indestructible divine gold Magic Treasures, before this form, they are all like a hot knife through butter, instantly melting, disintegrating, and vaporizing!

Nothing can stop it!

Tailor-made! A match made in heaven!

Yao Delong was ecstatic! The Great Sun Body Forging Art he practiced had already pushed his Physical Body to the extreme!

The natal Dao fire ignited within his body was precisely the extremely Yang and overbearing Great Sun Divine Flame! He had already crossed the threshold for this Divine Flame World-Extinguishing Combat Method!

What he lacked was precisely this kind of supreme secret technique to transform the Physical Body's divine fire into world-extinguishing offense!

Before, he had a powerful Physical Body and Divine Flame but could only rely on brute force to clash with Body Integration cultivators. Now that he had this kind of killing technique... his combat power would more than double!

"This is the one!"

Yao Delong no longer hesitated. He immediately took out a blank Jade Slip, and his Divine Thought, like an opened sluice gate,

cautiously yet incredibly swiftly copied the Legacy information, which was as vast as a sea of stars and as violent as lava, from the Jade Slip.

The child-like Palace Spirit phantom watched as Yao Delong selected this combat method.

It rarely set aside its laziness, a hint of something unusual appearing on its small face. It clicked its tongue and said:

"Little brat, your eyes are certainly sharp and ruthless enough! This thing... tsk tsk, quite a few have played with fire and burned themselves."

It reached out a small starlight hand and lightly tapped the Jade Slip Yao Delong had copied, branding it with a mysterious starlight rune.

The Restriction has been placed; the Legacy will self-destruct after it is branded. I wish you... luck in not burning yourself into nothingness.
