The reckless fighting style of the Ghost Clan, inadvertently, perfectly countered Shen Qian's movement techniques.
It's a long story, but in reality, only five breaths had passed from the moment the first Ghost Clan powerhouse self-destructed, to when number 56 revealed his face, until all the Ghost Clan powerhouses rushed forward.
Shen Qian did not choose to escape at first, and by then he was already surrounded.
Before he could figure it out, dozens of powerful members of the Ghost Clan arrived one after another.
The terrifying fluctuations of soul power emanated from all directions, leaving no blind spots.
He took a deep breath before sinking in. In this situation, he had no choice but to use his trump card.
Suddenly, Shen Qian's figure became blurry, and then, to the astonishment of many, his figure split into two, then into three, then four... until it finally stopped splitting into nine clones.
"Soul Technique...Lotus Avatar!"
He sang softly before sinking into the water.
The seventh taboo of mental power is the "Form and Intent Barrier". This barrier has blocked countless geniuses, but once it is crossed, mental power will undergo a true qualitative change after countless accumulations.
The most obvious change is that before sinking, one can clearly sense one's three souls and seven spirits and perform more microscopic operations.
The formation of clones was an ultimate secret technique that he naturally comprehended.
The king's clone before sinking was created by splitting half of his soul, which actually shows that he had very weak control over his soul before sinking.
To this day, he can use his three souls and seven spirits as the foundation to split into nine clones at any time, and they can also reassemble at any time... This is the exquisite beauty of the art of clones at its highest level.
Each clone possesses more than half the strength of the original.
Don't underestimate this half. Before sinking, the seven forbidden spiritual powers were already a bug-level existence in the "Sea of Learning". Even if it is divided into ten, the magnitude is still incomparable to ordinary peak martial artists of the Mountain and Sea.
To outsiders, the ten Shenqian were now radiant with light, and the intense light was not much weaker than before.
This is the full power that Chen Qian could unleash after loading all the knowledge he had forgotten!
How could ordinary people imagine such a clone technique? At this moment, all the martial artists present were greatly shocked by Shen Qian's move. No one expected that Shen Qian, who had been surrounded and killed by ten thousand people, had still preserved his strength.
Number 56's expression changed, but he quickly sneered, "So what if there are ten clones? Even twenty would die!"
Shen Qian didn't have time to pay attention to him, because the first wave of dozens of Ghost Clan powerhouses who approached had all self-destructed.
Rumble, rumble...
Even though these dozens of people had varying levels of cultivation, they were extremely coordinated. In order to maximize their power, they even timed their self-destruction precisely to the millisecond level.
Amidst the deafening explosion, the ten figures before him were almost instantly buried by the surging, multicolored soul power. The destructive soul power directly formed a towering cloud within a radius of a hundred feet, and even from dozens of miles away, one could faintly feel the terrifying energy fluctuations within it.
However, this was only the beginning.
Amidst the horrified gazes of countless human warriors, the remaining four hundred-odd Ghost Clan warriors, shouting in languages they did not understand, rushed toward the center of the explosion like moths to a flame.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One after another, Ghost Clan warriors self-destructed within it, and with each explosion, the area around the Mushroom Cloud expanded a little further.
Amidst the continuous explosions, the space above that mountain of books had long been shattered, and even the supposedly indestructible mountain of books was trembling violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
Holding a long sword, Tantai Qin kept trying to rush in to help Shen Qian relieve the pressure, but each time she got close, she was blown away by the violent air waves.
Number 56 stood with his hands behind his back, coldly watching this scene, a sneer playing on his lips.
Under the continuous impacts and self-destructions, Shen Qian was probably already dead, but he did not stop the warriors of the Ghost Clan.
Now that they've been exposed, even if these Ghost Clan warriors survive, they won't be able to escape Wu Wei and the others' punishment when they leave the "Sea of Learning." Since they're going to die anyway, they might as well make the most of them.
He wanted to ensure that he was shattered to pieces before sinking, so that there would be no future trouble.
Although... he didn't know why the Witch Emperor was so determined to kill Shen Qian.
Although he himself resented Shen Qian, he never thought of using these Ghost Clan spies. They had been lurking among the human race for many years, and in theory, they should have been used in the war between kings and nobles.
Rumble, rumble...
The explosive roar lasted for an unknown period of time, and finally began to slowly subside with the self-destruction of the last Ghost Clan warrior.
However, the dark clouds that obscured everything still lingered for a long time. Tantai Qin, who was already extremely anxious, flashed her sword, and a strong wind rushed in, instantly sweeping away all the thick fog and aftershocks.
Everyone in the Book Mountain Basin turned their attention to that focal point.
Before sinking... was he really dead?
This is a question that everyone is concerned about.
Even though 99% of the martial artists present believed that it was impossible for anyone to survive such a terrifying series of self-destructions.
Even kings and nobles might not be able to withstand it, let alone mountains and seas.
When visibility finally cleared, the scene at the eye of the storm was finally revealed to everyone.
What came into view was a dark, shadowy object.
"What is this black lake?" someone asked in surprise.
But soon more people realized, "Those are the charred corpses from before the sinking?"
