Divine War Pill Emperor

Chapter 324: Chapter 322: Enlightenment

The Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique has nine layers.

The first layer, Qi Stealing, plunders the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi for one’s own use.

Jiang Chen’s Cultivation had always consisted of plundering Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and converting it into his own Cultivation Power.

It could be said his progress was incredibly fast.

In less than a year, he had gone from nothing to his current level of Warrior Seventh Heaven. It was an absolutely heaven-defying speed.

The second layer, Soul Stealer, plundered an opponent’s physical strength.

Against an opponent of the same Realm and Cultivation, Jiang Chen could crush their physical body using his Cultivation Power alone.

He was practically invincible.

The third layer, Soul-Stealing.

It could forcibly annihilate an opponent’s soul—an incredibly tyrannical ability.

Jiang Chen had not yet cultivated the third layer.

Today, he had by chance entered the Ghost Temple once again.

’An opportunity has come. This is my chance.’

’With the help of the complete third-layer Cultivation Technique for the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique here, my Cultivation will definitely break through.’

Even if he didn’t obtain the Black Fire this time, Jiang Chen would still have made a massive gain.

With the complete third-layer Cultivation Technique of the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, the benefits he would receive would be endless.

In his past life, the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique he had obtained was not a complete Cultivation Technique, but rather a general outline.

What he had encountered now, the third layer, was the detailed Cultivation Technique.

If the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique was a great tree, then the Cultivation Technique of each layer should be its branches.

Before, he only knew he had obtained the tree, but not its branches.

Now, he had finally obtained one of those branches.

The complete Cultivation Technique for the third layer, Soul-Stealing.

’I never thought I’d have such a fateful encounter in this life.’

’I wonder if I’ll be able to encounter the other detailed Cultivation Techniques... the first layer, the second, the fourth...’

Jiang Chen began to feel a sense of anticipation.

The Ghost Temple now filled him with eager expectation.

’Heaven’s heart reflects in my heart, my heart is like Heaven’s heart...’

’A distant soul returns with a cry, the soul becomes like my body...’

In Jiang Chen’s eyes, the ancient characters continuously evolved, transforming into the script of the Bright Moon Continent.

Streams of light entered his mind.

This caused the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique within Jiang Chen’s body to circulate wildly. It was as if it had been supplemented, and the third layer was continuously being perfected.

’Marvelous. Truly marvelous.’

’The third layer, Soul-Stealing... so this is how it’s supposed to be.’

As he continued to comprehend it, Jiang Chen’s eyes grew brighter and brighter.

At the foot of the wall, Jiang Chen paced back and forth, occasionally stopping to think on the spot.

The third layer of the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique alone could stand as its own independent Cultivation Technique.

’The third layer... it should be called the Soul Absorption Technique.’

That’s right. The third layer, Soul-Stealing, could completely snatch another person’s soul and make it his own Soul Power.

It would help him strengthen his soul.

A powerful soul would make Jiang Chen’s Cultivation speed even faster.

’It’s as if the heavens themselves are helping me!’

As Jiang Chen’s understanding deepened, flashes of insight burst forth in his mind.

It even stimulated the first layer of his Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, Qi Stealing, causing it to plunder the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi even more rapidly.

WHOOSH...

Amidst his continuous comprehension, a heaven-soaring aura erupted from Jiang Chen’s body.

"This..."

"Is Jiang Chen cultivating?"

"Heavens, this guy is too freaky! He can actually cultivate like this?"

Zhan Yang and the others saw Jiang Chen’s Cultivation fluctuate just from observing the ancient characters.

They knew he was cultivating, that his Cultivation was progressing.

They were incredibly envious.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t understand the characters at all.

One could only say that this was Jiang Chen’s own fateful opportunity.

At the same time, as Jiang Chen’s comprehension deepened, the entire Ghost Temple began to emit a humming vibration.

Flame Dragon, Wen Shixuan, and the others, who had already left the third floor and were heading to the fourth, all turned back in alarm.

"What’s going on?"

"Who triggered the Divine Hall’s vibration?"

They looked behind them, sensing that someone had caused the Ghost Temple to shake.

They were all extremely curious, and some had even already started to sneak back.

Flame Dragon, however, hesitated for a moment before continuing onward, heading straight for the fourth floor.

Wen Shixuan did the same.

On the seventh floor of the Ghost Temple.

Within the seventh floor stood a colossal, jet-black statue.

The statue was of an old man, and it was extremely majestic.

At a certain moment, the statue’s eyes suddenly snapped open.

SWISH!

Two brilliant beams of light shot out from its eyes.

In an instant, the light pierced through the lower floors of the Ghost Temple and appeared on the third floor.

A scene appeared within his eyes.

A young man was comprehending the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique from the wall on the third floor.

He was the one causing the Ghost Temple to tremble.

SWISH!

He retracted his gaze.

The next moment, with a flash of light, a figure emerged from the statue.

It was an old man with graying hair.

After appearing, the old man flew to an altar-like structure in the center of the seventh floor and sat down cross-legged.

A smile appeared on his face. "Interesting. Someone from the Lower Realm has actually comprehended the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique."

"It seems I’ve found another interesting person."

"Tens of thousands of years ago, that person left right after comprehending the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique. This time, I absolutely cannot let this little fellow get away."

"He will surely be willing to hand over his soul to me."

"Heh heh."

"When that time comes, I’ll be able to escape my predicament and leave this damned Ghost Temple."

The old man let out an eerie laugh, then sat motionlessly on the altar, waiting for something.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen was lost in his comprehension of the third layer of the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, Soul-Stealing.

BUZZ!

At a certain moment, the aura around Jiang Chen fluctuated violently.

HISSS...

Lu Beifeng sucked in a sharp breath.

"He broke through just like that? No way!"

His mouth hung open in astonishment.

Because Jiang Chen had suddenly broken through, his Cultivation leaping from Warrior Seventh Heaven to Warrior Eighth Heaven in an instant.

It was simply unbelievable.

Zhan Yang, JinLing, and Niu Tuo were also stunned.

No one had expected Jiang Chen’s Cultivation to break through in such a short amount of time.

But the matter was far from over.

’Heaven’s heart reflects in my heart, my heart is like Heaven’s heart...’

Jiang Chen’s heart opened to nature. He felt the Great Dao stretch out before him, his vision completely clear.

He seemed to have stepped onto a wide, open road. This was a Dao, a Great Dao, that could lead him down an even stronger path.

Enlightenment in a single moment, his Cultivation soaring by leaps and bounds.

BUZZ...

Two hours later, another fluctuation emanated from Jiang Chen’s body.

Zhan Yang and the others were all completely gobsmacked.

"Good heavens, he broke through again! Are you even going to let the rest of us live?"

They felt as though they were witnessing Jiang Chen create a miracle.

They had watched with their own eyes as Jiang Chen broke through one level after another in a short span of time.

Now, his Cultivation had reached Warrior Ninth Heaven.

He was just one step away from breaking through to Martial Master Cultivation.

Such progress could only be described as miraculous.

The four of them, aghast, cried out that they couldn’t take it anymore.

"Can he break through to the Martial Master Realm?"

"I think a monster like Jiang Chen can definitely do it."

"Is there anything he can’t do?"

The four of them were at a loss for words.

For Jiang Chen, breaking through was as simple as eating and drinking.

Even after comprehending the Sword Dao Jiang Chen had given him, Lu Beifeng still hadn’t broken through to Martial Master Third Heaven.

But he was close.

He had reached the critical point for a breakthrough.

Yet that critical point had stopped him completely in his tracks.

Jiang Chen, in contrast, was practically sprinting through his breakthroughs.
