During his time in the underground city, Shen Qian crammed a lot of advanced and secret knowledge about martial arts.
All martial arts techniques are created, borrowed, or inherited from ancient martial arts by generations of martial artists.
The higher the level of martial arts, the closer it is to the general trend of heaven and earth; in other words, the closer it is to the most fundamental "rules" in the dark.
By the time martial arts reach the nine-star level, they have already acquired the meaning of "skill approaching the Dao," so each nine-star martial arts skill is, in a sense, no less than a supernatural power.
By the way, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books right now is the .huanyuanapp app (install the latest version).
The birth of supernatural powers is different from martial arts skills. It is a reverse deduction of the way of heaven and earth. In other words, all supernatural powers from ancient times to the present are the result of the strongest people having a momentary and intense understanding of the ultimate principles of heaven and earth at certain coincidental moments, and then comprehending a certain means to use it, which is the supernatural power.
Martial arts skills are the product of the integration and gradual progress of martial arts principles, while supernatural powers point directly to the root and are born at the end.
Therefore, supernatural powers are difficult to write down and record, and can only be passed down in some hidden ways. In fact, many supernatural powers are impossible for anyone other than the person who possesses them to perform or learn.
For example, Shen Qian's own "Calamity Buddha" is a hybrid product of "Arhat Golden Body" and "Blood Guanyin". To learn this supernatural power, one must first master "Arhat Golden Body" and "Blood Guanyin", then, like Shen Qian, find the power of the world's birth and death to refine, and finally, one's own body must be able to withstand this transformation without going out of control.
These stringent conditions meant that Shen Qian never considered recording the "Calamity Buddha" or selling it to the Martial Arts Department in exchange for resources.
It's virtually impossible for anyone to learn it.
Also based on the randomness and unreplicability of supernatural powers, after discovering that "Shadow Blade" was gradually becoming less and less compatible with his own strength, he had the idea of creating his own martial arts technique.
"Extreme Fist" is also very strong, but the way it exerts force is too extreme. Every time it requires emptying Chenqian's body. Fortunately, Chenqian is a "Ten Directions Creation Body", whose Yuan Power quality and recovery speed are far superior to ordinary martial artists, so he can withstand the blow and not turn into a dried-up human body.
Normally, it can only be used as a burst of power in a life-or-death situation, and that would be a waste of the Mountain and River Blade.
Martial artists can try to create their own martial arts techniques when they reach the advanced martial arts stage. Most martial arts techniques below three stars are created in this way. However, the most suitable stage for truly creating mature and practical martial arts techniques is still the Mountain and Sea stage.
It is worth mentioning that the vast majority of martial arts skills of seven stars or above were created by martial artists from the Mountain and Sea series.
In particular, those martial artists who have ventured far into forbidden areas often contribute a high-level martial art in the corresponding field.
For example, the "Shadow Shift" that Shen Qian just used was actually a perfect combination of the forbidden realm of the physical body and the Dao of space... Before Lin Tianwang was promoted to King, he had already reached the Seven Forbidden Realms of the Physical Body, which is rare in the world.
Shen Qian pondered his own strengths. Although he had not yet broken through to the highest level in any forbidden field, he had the advantage of balanced development and had already achieved some success in all of them.
Moreover, his physical body is blessed by the Buddha of Calamity, his elemental power is based on the chaotic attribute, and his mental power is also blessed by the inheritance of the King of Words. In fact, the combat power he can exert far exceeds the superficial level of the second or third forbidden level.
The only challenge is how to make them amplify each other and perfectly complement each other in swordsmanship.
Finally, before sinking, they found a trick.
That is to use the amazing control one has when activating the "Ten Directions Creation Body" to combine them together.
As long as he maintains the right balance and doesn't let the "Ten Directions Creation Body" truly spiral out of control, he can unleash this perfect strike.
Yes, "Perfect Slash" is the name Shen Qian gave to this martial art.
Strictly speaking, this doesn't qualify as a martial art because it can't be copied, but it's not a supernatural power either, although in terms of its power it already resembles the prototype of a supernatural power.
boom!
Before sinking, a thousand-foot-long blade of light surged forth, intertwining gold (elemental power), silver (spirit), black (physical body), and the blue and red hues of the Mountain and River Blade itself. Beautiful as a rainbow, yet imbued with the meaning of death, it slashed horizontally towards the gigantic Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan roared, and his thick arms slammed together, turning a golden-iron color and becoming indestructible, as if he wanted to crush the blade's edge.
Clang!
After a crisp sound, Zhu Yan's arms were thrown back, and the blade's momentum continued as it struck Zhu Yan's chest and abdomen.
Zhu Yan staggered backward, having suffered a considerable loss from that single strike.
...
"How is this possible!"
High in the distance, all the powerful figures from the Mountain and Sea Realms fell silent, and even Xu Nian, who was setting up and activating the formation, paused.
The vast chasm between kings and nobles and mountains and seas has never been crossed since ancient times, except for that freak Jiang Huan.
But now, it seems that Shen Qian has done it... He actually forced back a king with his body as strong as mountains and seas.
The impact of this scene on them was indescribable.
Xu Nian's eyes flashed, and the thought of taking the opportunity to nip Shen Qian in the bud became even stronger. Given time, who could stop such a freak?
...
Shen Qian's gaze was calm, and although he felt joy, it wasn't much.
This was exactly what he expected.
It wasn't that his blade's aura truly overwhelmed the king; it was simply because this strike contained an "unrivaled" power of rules. In other words, unless the enemy could unleash a higher level of rule suppression, this strike could not be blocked.
Within a certain range, this is a literal, let alone deadly technique.
However, with just this one move, it would still be impossible for Shen Qian to match Zhu Yan, after all, Zhu Yan was a genuine king of near-marquis rank and an ancient demon with a naturally strong physique.
