After learning the Heavenly Essence Technique, Lin Chen's spiritual power increased exponentially, and his understanding of the Dao also deepened. Now, his cultivation speed is probably advancing by leaps and bounds. As long as he consolidates his skills and engages in more battles, he will no longer be just an empty shell.
Come on, the techniques and Daoist arts I drew, such as [Blazing Phoenix], [Spiritual Shadow], and [Ethereal Strike], have all been brought out and laid out on the table, ready for me to study.
Waves of spiritual energy burst forth, dazzlingly bright in the small room. The two seemed to have entered a state of self-forgetfulness, their eyes fixed solely on practice, Dao techniques, cultivation methods, and strength.
After an unknown amount of time, the two of them still did not make a sound. Suddenly, Ye Yao coughed violently and spat out a mouthful of blood, but it was clear that she was not in any discomfort.
This immediately pulled Lin Chen back from his state of enlightenment. Fortunately, Lin Chen had already fully comprehended all the cultivation techniques, and his comprehension was indeed terrifying.
"What's wrong, Yao Yao? Are you alright?" Lin Chen asked anxiously.
"It's alright. This sword technique is quite miraculous. It can actually clear all the impurities from my body and directly improve my physique by several degrees," Ye Yao replied.
"I see. It's good that you're alright. A day or two has passed. Let's go out for a walk. I was just thinking of practicing my skills." Lin Chen said, revealing a row of tiger teeth, though a slight cold glint shone within them.
"Okay, I know who you want to find. Let's go."
On the central street of Sheng'an City, a man and a beast once again set foot on this road. Unlike last time, when he was beaten up, this time he was going to beat someone up.
City Lord's Mansion Gate
"Hey, it's you two again. When will this end? If the city lord won't see you, get the hell out of here. I don't want to fight today."
"We're not in a hurry to find the city lord today; we're here to beat up the dog, don't you think?" Lin Chen looked at him mockingly.
"You little brat, you're asking for it." With that, he charged forward with a punch.
"Retrieve Attributes"
Lin Chen's mental strength is now formidable, and the Heavenly Essence Fruit allows him to access other people's attribute panels across different ranks, not to mention that this guard is a Supreme Being.
[Attribute retrieval successful]
[Enemy: Guard A]
Attack Attribute Points: 1400 (1 attribute point = 100 attack power; Note: Normal Supreme Defense is 100,000 attack power)
Agility attribute points: 1500 (1 attribute point = 100 agility power; Note: Normal supreme defense power is 100,000 agility power)
[Defense Attribute Points: 1500 (1 attribute point = 100 defense power; Note: Normal Supreme defense power is 100,000 defense power)]
[Taoist Techniques: Spiritual Tao Technique (Earth Spirit Level), Spiritual Wave Fist, Agile Step]
Overall assessment: Completely crushes them, nothing to worry about.
Looking at the attribute panel, Lin Chen felt more at ease. Now, beating him was like beating a dog. What surprised him even more was that the system could now extract the opponent's cultivation techniques and Daoist formulas. This was too amazing. Knowing yourself and your enemy, wouldn't you be invincible?
"Come on, I'm ready to play along to the end," Lin Chen boasted.
The "Lingbo Fist" was still the same old move. Originally, it was thought that Lin Chen was just looking for a beating, after all, only a few days had passed, how much strength could he have improved?
But things are far from that simple.
"Derivation Dao Technique, begin." Rings of yellow spiritual energy appeared, and after stopping, there were a total of six rings.
"What? He's already become a sixth-level Void Breaking expert in just a few days? How is that possible? Even the City Lord couldn't have done that."
Seeing the guard's surprised expression, Lin Chen was very pleased. With a casual slap, the Lingbo Fist was easily broken.
"Now it's my turn, Blazing Phoenix, come forth!" A wisp of crimson flame spewed from Lin Chen's mouth, instantly burning away the surrounding air, and then hurtling straight towards the guards.
If this attack hits, the person will definitely be bedridden for at least ten days to two weeks, and the aftereffects will likely be even more severe. After all, it's an upgraded version of the Phoenix Flame, and the power of the divine beast is undeniable.
He couldn't use his Spirit Wave Step at all; his aura was completely suppressed. After all, he was just a minor Supreme Being, while Lin Chen was now a Sixth-Rank Void Breaker.
Just as he was about to be hit, a red glowing spear appeared in front of him, and slowly the flames were absorbed.
"Young friend, it's not appropriate for you to cause trouble at my city lord's mansion so soon after arriving here," City Lord Li Jue said to Lin Chen from the void.
"Oh? And who are you? Are you trying to gang up on me?" Ye Yao stepped forward and said to him.
“I am the person you are looking for, City Lord Li Jue.”
"Oh? The master is here? Now I don't want to see you anymore, I just want to beat up the Li family's dog."
Lin Chen was incredibly stubborn and wouldn't back down. This time, he didn't even consider the city lord's strength. After all, a city lord was definitely not as simple as a Void Breaker or a Supreme Saint, and he wasn't afraid at all.
Lin Chen's first thought when he "retrieved the attributes" was to find out his background.
[Attribute retrieval successful]
[Enemy: Li Jue]
Attack Attribute Points: 4000 (1 attribute point = 100 attack power; Note: Normal Supreme Defense is 100,000 attack power)
Agility attribute points: 4200 (1 attribute point = 100 agility; note: normal supreme defense is 100,000 agility)
[Defense Attribute Points: 4250 (1 attribute point = 100 defense power, Note: Normal Supreme defense power is 100,000 defense power)]
[Cultivation Techniques, Daoist Formulas: None]
[Overall assessment: This person is extremely strong; you will be defeated in less than two moves. I advise you to run for your life.]
"What the hell? Why can't I summon my cultivation techniques this time? Is it only after I fight him that I can reveal them?" Lin Chen seemed to have understood the mystery.
However, it wasn't entirely useless. By retrieving his attribute points, we could at least determine what level of power he was; he was actually at the Spirit Tempering stage.
This was indeed enough to slap him to death, but the word "fear" was never in Lin Chen's dictionary.
"Then I, Lin Chen, will certainly learn from you again, Lord City Lord."
“Me too.” Ye Yao leaned closer as well.
"Overestimating yourself, I'll fight you to the end."
"Spiritual Venerable Dao Technique, begin."
"Derivative Dao Technique, begin."
The two activated their Dao techniques simultaneously, and the Breaking Void Sword in Ye Yao's hand trembled and hummed, as if it wanted to kill with blood on the first try.
"Tianming Dao Technique, activate." Li Jue released his Dao Technique immediately, and three circles of orange spiritual waves shot straight into the sky.
"Spiritual Void Ghost Shadow," Lin Chen used a technique to appear behind Li Jue, preparing to attack from both sides.
Before anyone knew it, Li Jue had already obtained the Crimson Fire Spear. His Dao technique was for cultivating weaponry, just like Ye Yao's.
With a sudden "Void Strike," Lin Chen vanished into thin air, but he couldn't escape Li Jue's notice, given the vast difference in their strength.
"Tianming Yufa, rise!" A formation rose from the ground, enveloping Li Jue. No matter where Lin Chen's attacks came from, they were all neutralized into nothingness.
"Think it's over? I, Lin Chen, still have a killer move up my sleeve."
