Chapter 299: Snatching the Opportunity, Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture

Formless Immortal Traces is just a movement technique; although powerful, it is incomplete.

And the Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture is the true core Cultivation Technique, containing not only movement techniques but also the cultivation method for the Space Law!

"Holy crap, I hit the jackpot!"

Zhou Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He originally thought he was just snatching a sword canon, but he didn't expect the ten-thousand-fold return would directly give him an Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique.

And it was even the core Cultivation Technique for the Space Law!

"Better get back to Cultivate quickly."

Zhou Chen didn't linger and turned to leave the First Quadrant.

Returning to the hall, Elder Yun was somewhat surprised to see Zhou Chen come out.

"Out so soon? Did you find a suitable Cultivation Technique?"

"Yes, I found one."

Zhou Chen nodded.

"That's good then."

Elder Yun didn't ask further and waved for Zhou Chen to leave.

Zhou Chen walked quickly out of the Scripture Pavilion, executed Formless Immortal Traces, and flew toward Green Lotus Peak at full speed.

—

Green Lotus Peak, Immortal Cave.

Zhou Chen closed all the Restrictions of the Immortal Cave to ensure he wouldn't be disturbed.

Then he sat cross-legged in the cultivation room, his Divine Sense sinking into the Jade Slip.

The contents of the Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture slowly unfolded in his mind.

This Cultivation Technique is divided into six layers, each containing countless Great Dao principles of the Space Law.

First layer, Space Perception.

Second layer, Space Traverse.

Third layer, Space Cleave.

Fourth layer, Space Lock.

Fifth layer, Space Domain.

Sixth layer, Space Creation.

"What a terrifying Cultivation Technique…"

Zhou Chen sucked in a breath of cold air.

If he could Cultivate to the sixth layer, he could even create an independent space and become a true Master of Space!

"Start from the first layer first."

Zhou Chen closed his eyes and began to circulate his spiritual energy according to the Cultivation Technique.

The circulation route of the Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture was extremely complex, requiring spiritual energy to be guided into three hundred and sixty-five special Acupoints, then vibrated at a specific frequency to perceive the surrounding spatial fluctuations.

Zhou Chen carefully followed the Cultivation Technique's circulation.

First time, failure.

Second time, failure.

Third time, still failure.

But Zhou Chen was not discouraged and kept trying.

He fused the Primal Creation Scripture into it, using the Power of Creation to assist his cultivation.

The Power of Creation can evolve all things and was also of great help in understanding the Space Law.

Finally, on the eighteenth attempt, Zhou Chen succeeded!

He felt that the surrounding space was no longer a void, but composed of countless fine spatial lines.

These lines were interwoven, forming a stable spatial structure.

"So this is the essence of space…"

Zhou Chen opened his eyes, a flash of realization crossing them.

He raised his hand and made a light stroke in the air.

A tiny spatial crack appeared at his fingertip and then instantly healed.

"I did it!"

Zhou Chen was pleasantly surprised.

Although he had only barely achieved a Breakthrough in the first layer, his understanding of the Space Law had already improved by more than one level.

In the future, when he used Formless Immortal Traces, his speed and flexibility would be greatly enhanced.

"Next, Cultivate the Grand Void Sword Canon."

Zhou Chen didn't stop and continued to Cultivate.

Although the Grand Void Sword Canon was replaced by the System with the Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture, the original sword canon's content was also preserved in the Jade Slip.

Grand Void Sword Canon, an Imperial Rank Top-Grade sword technique.

It is divided into two forms in total.

First form, Great Void Yin-Yang Slash.

Second form, Great Void Eight Desolations Slash.

Both forms of the sword technique are extremely domineering, able to ignore space and defense to directly lock onto the enemy's Origin.

"These two sword forms happen to work perfectly with the Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture."

Zhou Chen was secretly delighted.

He began to Cultivate the first form—Great Void Yin-Yang Slash.

The core of this form is to achieve a Fusion of the two completely opposite forces, Yin and Yang, and then transmit them through the Space Law to slash directly at the enemy.

Zhou Chen took out his longsword and began practicing the sword moves.

He fused the Perfection Law of Slaughter into the sword while simultaneously circulating the Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture to perceive spatial fluctuations.

Swish!

With one slash, the Sword Qi didn't fly through the air but vanished instantly.

The next second, the Sword Qi appeared on a piece of Adamantine Rock ten zhang away, instantly splitting it in two.

"I succeeded!"

Zhou Chen's eyes lit up.

This was the power of the Great Void Yin-Yang Slash—ignoring spatial distance to attack directly!

If the opponent were a Cultivator, this slash could even ignore protective spiritual energy and Magic Treasure defense to strike directly at the body.

How terrifying!

"Now try the second form."

Zhou Chen took a deep breath and began to Cultivate the Great Void Eight Desolations Slash.

This form is even more domineering than the first, requiring simultaneous control of spatial nodes in eight directions to form a lock-down Domain, then unleashing Sword Qi from eight directions at once.

No matter which direction the enemy dodges, they will be hit by the Sword Qi.

Zhou Chen concentrated and carefully perceived the surrounding spatial nodes.

Front, back, left, right, up, down, top-left, bottom-right…

Eight nodes, every one essential.

He swung his longsword, dividing the Sword Qi into eight streaks and striking them into the eight nodes simultaneously.

Boom!

The eight streaks of Sword Qi erupted at once, forming a perfect Sword Qi cage in the center of the cultivation room.

"The Great Void Eight Desolations Slash is complete!"

Zhou Chen smiled.

With these two sword forms, plus the Perfection Law of Slaughter and the Creation Green Lotus Physique, his combat power had at least doubled.

Now, even if he encountered Jiang Wuchen again, he had the confidence to face him head-on!

"The Elite Disciple competition in a month is in the bag!"

Zhou Chen gripped his longsword, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

But at that moment, a knock suddenly came from outside the Immortal Cave.

"Is Fellow Daoist Zhou Chen here?"

It was an unfamiliar voice.

Zhou Chen frowned and opened the Immortal Cave's Restriction.

Standing at the door was a young man in purple robes, with a polite smile on his face.

"And you are?"

"I am an Elite Disciple of the Yin-Yang School, Ziyang."

The purple-robed youth cupped his hands: "I have come specifically to visit Fellow Daoist Zhou Chen."

"Yin-Yang School?"

Zhou Chen narrowed his eyes: "What is your business?"

"It's like this…"

Ziyang smiled: "In three days, the Yin-Yang School will host a Dao Discussion Assembly, inviting Elite Disciples from various schools to participate."

"My master specifically asked me to invite Fellow Daoist Zhou Chen. I wonder if you would grace us with your presence?"

"Dao Discussion Assembly?"

Zhou Chen frowned.

He always felt there was something fishy about this invitation.

"Indeed."

Ziyang nodded: "The Dao Discussion Assembly is held once a year and is a good Opportunity for various schools to exchange and compete."

"Moreover…"

He lowered his voice: "I heard that Elite Disciples from all major schools will participate this time, and there will even be Elder-level figures giving lectures. Doesn't Fellow Daoist Zhou Chen want to go and meet them?"

Zhou Chen nodded inwardly.

That was perfect; he also wanted to see the brilliance of the many Genius Disciples.

"Fine, I'll go."

Zhou Chen nodded.

"Then many thanks, Fellow Daoist."

Ziyang smiled: "In three days at the hour of Chen, at the Yin-Yang School's Dao Discussion Platform, we shall await your arrival."

After saying that, he cupped his hands in farewell and turned to leave.

Zhou Chen watched Ziyang's departing back, his brow furrowed.

"This Dao Discussion Assembly… I'm afraid it's not that simple."

But no matter, soldiers will be blocked by generals, and water will be covered by earth.

With the Great Void Eight Desolations Formless Scripture and the Grand Void Sword Canon, his strength was no longer what it used to be.

Zhou Chen believed that among his peers, no one would necessarily be his match.
