Sacrificial Artifact Judgment: After successfully mastering, it could trigger the refined artifact’s origin and create an outburst of all its power instantly.
There were seven levels in total where the first level could detonate the power of a Heavenly Immortal Weapon, and when the seventh level was reached, it could detonate the power of a Quasi-Sage leveled Dao vessel.
However, the difficulty of cultivating this technique was difficult beyond imagination.
This was the strange forbidden method he exchanged from ‘Huang Quan’ among the group of friends in the Supreme Tower. According to him, it took 100 years for an ordinary genius to cultivate the technique up to the first level.
Every time you increase by one level, the time required to ascend to the next level would be increased by 100 times.
Upon getting his hands on the technique, Jiang Ming spent hundreds of points on the lotus platform in the Dao Enlightenment Sea before he could cultivate this technique to the sixth level.
As for the seventh floor? He was still clueless of it even after he spent 10 points. Nevertheless, Jiang Ming knew that it was not because he could not, but because his cultivation realm was too low.
That was what was restraining him.
With no other options left, Jiang Ming had no choice but to evoke this technique, and sacrificed the Heaven’s Annihilation Bell.
The destructive storm formed might even shred a Quasi-Sage to pieces. After all, the Great Overarching Dao vessel was equivalent to a Great Overarching Realm expert. Hence, it could produce truly terrifying power if it self-destructs.
The Star Master Tianquan’s power was an accumulation of the seven Great Overarching Golden Immortal experts, blessed by the great formation array and even had the authority of the universe. Even so, his physical body was still bombarded into pieces.
As the last bell rang, his primal spirit was almost destroyed, and the grand array formation stopped its cycle.
Jiang Ming took this opportunity to land the killing blow and the great array formation collapsed right after.
The destructive storm coupled with the backlash caused all six Great Overarching Golden Immortal experts to spat out mouthfuls of blood and their lifeline instantly dropped to freezing point.
Jiang Ming was already prepared for this.
Six vital essences flew out of his body and formed six clones of himself. At the same time, he exhausted all of his strength to evoke the Return of Infinite Law Finger technique at an extremely fast pace. He directly pierced the eyebrows of the six Great Overarching Golden Immortals, completely annihilating their primal spirits.
Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible for him to kill a Great Overarching Golden Immortal expert by only relying on his clones.
However at this time around, the death of Star Master Tianquan’s main body, the backlash of the great formation array, and the aftermath of the Heavenly Annihilation Bell caused them to lose their resistance for a brief moment.
As the six Great Overarching Golden Immortals died instantly, Jiang Ming’s clones also collapsed and the six strands of vital essences returned and merged back into his body.
Jiang Ming followed suit by launching his attack at Kunpeng.
“Golden Immortal Shield!”
“God-Slaying Silver Spear!”
“Sacrificial Artifact Judgment! Detonate!”
Jiang Ming took out two more Great Overarching Dao Vessels, which were the trophies he obtained from beheading the beneficiaries of the Lord God Space. These Dao vessels were already refined in the Supreme Pagoda, and now they had become his terrifying ultimate moves.
Jiang Ming’s face turned pale instantly.
Detonating the Dao vessels also destroyed his imprints inside them. This was the price of using the Sacrificial Artifact Judgment technique but Jiang Ming didn’t mind much about it.
He had his inner world which allowed him to quickly mend the damage to his primal spirit. Moreover, he practiced the Great Spiritual Technique, etc. As long as his primal spirit was not damaged fundamentally, it was not a problem for him at all.
“Little brute!” Kunpeng was shocked at first, then turned furious. However, he also knew the horror of this technique of Jiang Ming’s, and his body turned into his original form in a flash.
No, it was half of his original form, a great Roc.
Spreading his wings a million miles long, the power akin to the explosion of hundreds of millions of stars surged out in an instant. At the same time, his Mystical Arcane Blue Water Flag also appeared under him.
Boom….
Jiang Ming sent out the explosive force from the outburst of the two Great Overarching Dao vessels. It collapsed the sky, overturned the seas as an endless aura of destruction filled the air across tens and millions of miles away, killing an unknown number of creatures.
Because the Tianyuan World was protected by the Saint Province Dao Square, it remained safe from this wave of destructive storms.
The stability of the Infinite Realm Battlefield was so strong and even so, black holes were torn across the space, as the oscillating Mystical Arcane Blue Water Flag whimpered and returned back into Kunpeng’s body.
Right after the destructive power swept across the field, a large number of feathers were falling from the skies.
Kunpeng opened his beak and spewed out a blood-colored river with a length of 3,000 miles.
The very next moment, his figure disappeared, escaping into the distance, at an extremely fast speed.
Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes and his heart was beating wildly. He evoked the World Projection instantly.
He saw a huge Roc bird appearing in front of him and after a brief pause, sent itself hurling over as quick as lightning and as furious as the thunder, faster than anyone could react.
The Mystical Arcane Halberd appeared in Jiang Ming’s hand as he slashed onwards.
Dang!
A screeching sound of metal clashing could be heard from his huge claws against the halberd, erupting sparks that burned into a sea of fire. Jiang Ming was sent back from the explosive force.
Immediately after, Kunpeng’s beak opened, and was about to evoke the power of devouring. As he wanted to swallow Jiang Ming whole, he remembered Jiang Ming’s strange technique just now, and he quickly closed his beak and pecked him.
Attacking quickly and furiously, the sharpness of his beak was not weaker than any other Great Overarching Dao vessels.
Jiang Ming raised the great halberd to fend off his attack but saw the beak making a turn and was coming straight between his brows.
“This bird’s head actually make turns?” He almost spewed vulgar words.
With a thought, the Nine Level Golden Pagoda, a Quasi-Sage Dao vessel appeared on top of his head. But it was immediately scattered by a blow of immortal light and sent back at him. Jiang Ming retreated yet again.
“Even at his weakest stage, this Kunpeng is still extraordinarily tough to fight with!”
“Confinement!”
Jiang Ming ran through his thoughts and muttered the word.
The World Projection turned into a substantial existence, and the laws were manifested, turned into chains that ran through the void crisscrossing, ultimately forming a huge chessboard that incorporated Kunpeng into it.
The chains vibrated, and some sort of heavy force started to act on it, turning it into an invisible cage. This was a confinement technique that utilized the power of the whole inner world of his.
At the same time, ten clones of Jiang Ming appeared in all directions. They were directly condensed and scattered with the power of World’s Projection. As soon as they appeared, they evoked the power of time and space, creating ten seals again.
This technique that Jiang Ming thought of really caught people off-guard.
Jiang Ming himself raised the Mystical Arcane Halberd and mobilized all the energy in his body.
Right when this happened, Jiang Ming saw Kunpeng’s incomparably huge real body shrunk and turned back into his human body. The chains of law paused slightly, and there was a gap in the time-space confinement technique that came at him.
“With the Heavenly Court above, I am the Northern Emperor, wielder of the authority of Heaven and Earth! Heed my call and descend!”
“Invincibility!”
He howled while he raised his hand. In an instant, Jiang Ming saw the stars in the depths of time and space flickering with stars, and a force seemed to be traveling through time and space, directly descending on Kunpeng. It broke the chains of law at the same time and also happened to fall on the tenfold Time and Space Confinement technique.
Boom…
The Confinement Technique mitigated most of the power of authority. Nevertheless, the torrent that was set off from the explosion swept through all directions once again. The outburst evaporated almost all the sea water in the Tianyuan Sea, and affected and perished numerous spectators nearby.
This was clearly the exchange of blows between Quasi-Sage leveled powers.
Jiang Ming did not hesitate and went with his next attack!
“Return of Infinite Law Finger!”
This time however, he used the Mystical Arcane Halberd as the carrier to strike this peerless blow.
A little light bloomed at the tip of the halberd, destroying the heavens, and drowning the starry sky. This ray of light was brighter than any starlight there was.
“That’s not good!” Kunpeng knew the horror of this attack of Jiang Ming’s, but was too late to avoid it.
Putting aside the suppression of the World Projection that turned into a chessboard, just the contest between his power of authority and Jiang Ming’s confinement technique, made him lose his speed advantage.
“Heavenly Water Shield, appear!”
“Mythical Dark Sword, slash!”
Kunpeng opened his mouth and spat out a shield that became larger against the wind, emitting 36 rays of light to block off the attack in front of him. This was a Great Overarching peak-level Dao vessel with invincible defensive capability.
At the palm of his hand, a blue long sword appeared. This was his offensive Dao vessel of a Quasi-Sage Realm, and could be said to be a treasure for walking on the path of Dao.
Boom!
Crack!
The very next moment, all the rays of light emitted by the Heavenly Water Shield were completely annihilated. Even this large Great Overarching Dao Vessel was pierced by the tip of the Mythical Arcane Halberd, and shattered into nine pieces, falling all around.
The great Mythical Arcane Halberd didn’t stop there and kept on colliding onto the attack from the Mythical Dark Sword!
As the pinpoint attack collided against the blinding light, the collision sparked a blinding ray of light that illuminated through the nine heavens and ten lands. Immediately, a destructive storm flew above the sky and was sent directly into the depths of the torrent of time and space, penetrating through thousands of miles away.
The two people who collided were also sent flying back at the same time.
Jiang Ming’s face had turned pale, and his breath dropped to freezing point. He suddenly took in a deep breath, and his aura rose back to its peak in an instant.
The battle with Kunpeng was too power-consuming.
Fortunately, he was fully prepared for this battle. In his inner world, he had already refined and stored a lot of origin energy, enough for him to fight with all his strength for a month.
“Kunpeng! Die!” Jiang Ming’s eyes narrowed like strips of blades.
The ultimate move he prepared appeared yet again.
As for Kunpeng, he opened his mouth and spat out blood again while flying backwards from the exchange.
This exchange of blows had caused his injury that had been suppressed all along to resurface. It made his face turn even uglier, as his aura became unsteady. He knew his body wasn’t well now and couldn’t continue fighting. Just as he was about to escape, he discovered that the surrounding area was still sealed off by layers and layers of chains of Dao, confining him within.
To Kunpeng, such confinement was nothing and could be broken easily. Though this would still take time, even if it was a very short time. It was at this moment, Great Overarching weapons appeared in all four directions simultaneously, and they were within 1,000 meters of him in a flash.
“Fuck!” Kunpeng’s pupils shrank, and a feeling of death loomed over him.
“Great Astral! The authority of the Northern Emperor! Come to me!” He let out a roar from his very soul.
The very next moment, a destructive ray of light started to radiate around.
