Chapter 126: Chapter 122: Shen Wutian
ROAR!
His dragon-like Qi and blood roared and soared, blazing with savage ferocity as if doused in oil. It was as thick as a river—had the sky itself not held it back, it would have shot five hundred zhang high, scorching the very heavens and earth!
VMMMM!
The black-gold Primordial Magnetic Gang Shield expanded.
The repulsive, destructive power of its magnetic field pulverized all dust, dirt, and stone within a fifty-meter radius, reducing them to molecules and forming a perfect, circular vacuum.
BOOM!
Under the repulsive and distorting force of the Primordial Magnetic Field, the rainbow wave launched by the Harvest Village monster shattered. Like a stream of water deflected by an umbrella, it was rapidly broken, driven back, and utterly annihilated.
It was crushed into fragments smaller than motes of dust.
"This power...!"
WHOOSH!
The Harvest Village monster reappeared in a different location. It stared at Wu Dao, its heart pounding with utter shock. He looked like a Demon God of destruction descended upon the world, backed by soaring, dragon-like Qi and blood and shrouded in a dark Magnetic Field.
To its senses,
everything about Wu Dao had become alien. It was as if the soul within his body had been completely replaced by another.
This person’s entire aura reeked of the most ancient and pure slaughter, destruction, and ruin!
He was less a person and more a war machine, existing only to execute commands to fight and kill!
But most critically,
’Wu Dao’s Essence, Qi, and Spirit... they’ve doubled across the board from just moments ago!’ This was what truly terrified the Harvest Village monster.
Haaa...
A rolling torrent of dark electric fire spewed from his mouth.
Wu Dao’s eyes, once divine and sacred, had lost all their light. They seemed to have fallen completely into the Abyss, a pure, unblemished black.
The second of the Three Secret Techniques of Essence Devouring—
Shen Wutian!
Built upon the foundation of Essence Devouring Art and Divine Ghost Heaven, it unlocks the third layer of the brain’s protective mechanisms for the human body on a much deeper level.
Godlessness... to be without god!
Bury the acquired self!
Awaken the innate self!
Eradicate all thoughts useless for battle. A state of no-self, no-thought, where everything is surrendered to the control of the killing instinct buried in one’s genes.
Regardless of the consequences, no matter the cost!
The body’s functions are unleashed to three hundred percent capacity. The Energy burned every second far surpasses that of Divine Ghost Heaven.
However, this state is also extremely dangerous!
To say nothing of the immense consumption,
after burying the acquired self, if a Heaven Stealer lacks the powerful will to protect the "seed" of their true self as a key to deactivation,
and forcibly enters Shen Wutian,
there is only one outcome—
they become trapped in a state of slaughter and combat, unable to awaken, until they burn through all their Energy and self-destruct!
Only a Heaven Stealer who has reached the Overlord Great Success Domain, one with an overwhelmingly powerful Spiritual Will, is qualified to activate Shen Wutian. Only they can retain a sliver of subconscious guidance to direct their actions in the Divine Void State.
Below Overlord Great Success,
those at Minor Achievement will inevitably self-destruct!
As for the Heroic Domain,
they can’t even unlock the third layer of the brain’s protective mechanisms.
"A Secret Technique? So what? In this place, I am heaven itself! Die!!"
After its initial shock, the Harvest Village monster regained its composure. It linked itself to the core of Harvest Village, its Power surging, and once again teleported to strike at Wu Dao.
This was its home turf!
Unless Wu Dao possessed Celestial Power, he couldn’t hope to overturn the heavens here with brute force!
"Noisy."
The abyss-dark eyes of Shen Wu Dao held no emotion. He glanced indifferently at the Harvest Village monster, whose power had also surged. With a shift of his Magnetic Field, black electromagnetism once again ground the creature to dust.
FWOOSH—
Exhaling a turbid breath, Shen Wu Dao’s figure blurred. He left an afterimage in his place as he transformed into a beam of electromagnetic light and vanished.
He was too fast!
Heaven and earth seemed to come to a complete standstill.
In this silent world,
Wu Dao moved like a bolt of lightning, crashing through the air as if it were layers of glass. He left behind only concentric rings of sonic boom clouds that had yet to fully form in the void.
BOOM!!
An instant later,
a violent sonic wave, like a thunderous bombardment, mixed with a furious blast of air, and tore everything apart. On the ground below, countless tons of earth and stone exploded and were pulverized, forming a kilometer-long, cylindrical vacuum tunnel.
"This direction... Oh no!!"
The sound wave finally reached the Harvest Village monster, and its expression changed drastically. It knew instantly that Wu Dao had found its core.
Without a moment’s hesitation,
it instantly teleported to the village’s original location. Arriving just before Wu Dao, it swallowed the Harvest Map—which had been concealed in the void—in a single gulp.
Having swallowed the Harvest Map, the Harvest Village monster’s aura surged explosively. Its physical form swelled to several times its original size, and it became like an ancient, two-colored iceberg of red and white. The frigid, malevolent aura it released transformed the ruins of Harvest Village into a frozen Purgatory!
"ROAR!!"
The Harvest Village monster, now a creature resembling a red-and-white iceberg, let out a furious roar. The rolling, concussive sound waves tore through the void layer by layer, threatening to shatter the very heavens and earth.
"Ten Directions Divine Slaughter!"
An almost inaudible voice cut through the thunderous din. Without a hint of fear, Shen Wu Dao once again vanished.
The next instant!
White streaks, like marks left by an eraser on a blackboard, suddenly appeared in the sky and on the ground in all ten directions around the mountain-sized Harvest Village monster. Simultaneously, countless depressions shaped like Fist Seals materialized all over its body, from head to toe.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM—
Then, in less than an instant, violent sonic booms and air blasts erupted, drowning out the thunder of the Nine Heavens. The atmosphere, compressed by extreme speed, expanded and exploded with ferocious power!
Hurricane-force shockwaves repelled and vaporized all the icy moisture in their path, throwing the weather into chaos. As the winds swept by, countless rocks and clumps of earth on the ground shattered to pieces!
These pieces were then pulverized into a fine powder, forming a yellow-and-white tidal wave that connected the heavens to the earth as it rapidly swirled outward in all directions!
Ugh...
At the heart of all this destruction,
the massive body of the Harvest Village monster stood frozen, as if time had been paused. On its icy physique, the hundreds, even thousands, of fist-shaped craters suddenly began to deepen and expand at a terrifying speed.
