This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome Chapter 773 - Training, Retaliation from the Divine Blood Church

Chapter 773: Training, Retaliation from the Divine Blood Church

As its name suggested, the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art was related to someone’s life.

Lu Xuan had once heard that the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art was the highest art to ever be derived from the laws of life.

In contrast, the 10 greatest divine arts were basically derived from the most powerful of laws.

Back in his past life, he had only heard of the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art but never truly saw it in action. As such, he had no idea just how powerful the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art is.

Lu Xuan managed to remember all of the training methods just by taking one look at the sutra. From there, he began training immediately.

Countless golden symbols emerged from the sutra, forming lines of energy that entered his body over time, one after the other.

He finally was able to achieve a minor success 10 days later.

He murmured to himself, “I’m still far from completing the entire training. This is indeed one of the top 10 most powerful divine arts.”

Being able to get to a minor success after training for 10 days was something rare for Lu Xuan. He had the experience from his past life to back him up, after all.

Such an achievement would have been deemed nothing short of frightening to anyone else out there. Anyone who was out to master the top 10 most powerful divine arts would have at least had to train for years. Even then, they would’ve only made such a minor success after training for 10 years. This was pretty common for most people.

However, he wasn’t very proud of this achievement. If he was currently at the level that he was at back in his past life, 10 days would have been enough to get him to major success with that divine art.

There was a ma.s.sive difference between a minor success and a major one, but it wouldn’t have gotten in the way of him understanding the way to reach major success. It was just that his level was still too low to master one of the top 10 at such a high level of success.

Then again, his regenerative capabilities had gotten far more powerful after training in the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art. He wasn’t just able to heal common injuries in only the span of a single breath. More importantly, he discovered that the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art was actually capable of healing Great Path wounds.

The most difficult type of injury that cultivators faced was the Great Path wound, which was considered an injury to one’s foundation of the Great Path.

It was the kind of injury that was even more difficult than an injury to somebody’s primordial spirit.

Such a wound was almost impossible to heal. As such, Lu Xuan had been very cautious since he began training. He kept himself from being easily injured, let alone sustaining a Great Path wound. All those Great Path wounds came back to bite him after he underwent many trials to become a Celestial Lord. The only reason why he ever became a Celestian Lord in the first place was because of his incredibly high luck.

Now that he had the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art within him, which was capable of healing Great Path wounds, it meant that Lu Xuan could practically do whatever he wanted without worrying about being severely injured.

There were too many divine arts and spells out there that would result in irreversible Great Path wounds. As such, he would do his best to avoid using all of them. However, having the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art with him meant that he could heal Great Path wounds.

Furthermore, that was something that came with a minor success. Getting to major success meant that such wounds could be healed within mere moments.

By then, there wouldn’t be any concern of sustaining any Great Path wounds; with such a spell, the most feared of injuries among cultivators became little more than flesh wounds for him.

Putting the art to use in combat would’ve been even better, as the art could be said to allow him to remain in an optimal condition at all times.

As long as he had enough energy to spare, he could keep himself in peak condition at all times. Even if his limbs were broken, it would’ve only taken the span of a single breath to heal or regrow them.

That would have made him almost immortal.

Getting to major success could mean that even if he were to be rendered to minced meat from an attack, the art could be so insane as to allow him to quickly reconstruct his body.

The fundamental nature of the divine art consisted of the highest laws of life.

That was the most coveted of divine arts for Lu Xuan back in his past life, yet it accidentally fell into the hands of the Immemorial Path. Lu Xuan began to believe that things were always shifting in the world; nothing was ever set in stone.

Training in the Soaring Phoenix Immortality Art was but the beginning. He had to take the time to make a breakthrough to the ninth tier of Divine Transformation Realm, and that wouldn’t have been too difficult to do. He still had a Heaven Enhancement Pill with him, after all.

It was just enough to get his powers up to the ninth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm.

By then, his combat prowess would’ve seen a drastic change. He could now take on someone capable of conjuring Three Flowers at One’s Prominence without even needing to a.s.sume his pseudo-ascended state.

Since he had already managed to conjure the Auric Flower, he would have been able to conjure all three flowers without having to worry about running into any major setbacks. That meant that as long as he was able to reach the pinnacle of the Divine Transformation Realm, that would’ve been his greatest advantage.

While Lu Xuan continued to train in isolation, the world outside was drastically changing.

The Divine Blood Church had managed to fend off the Immemorial Path’s attack but at a ma.s.sive cost to the sect. Not only did they lose over 100 cultivators at the Divine Transformation Realm alone, but they also lost a total of over 200 thousand elite guards in the scuffle.

That one battle rocked the entire world.

It allowed everyone to see just how powerful the Divine Blood Church was.

Before the world could get over it, it took the cult mere 10 days to consolidate their forces and embark on an expedition.

It took only three days for the cult to have conquered 30 cities, taking countless lives along the way.

The cult itself worshipped the Blood Devil out of their world to begin with, which meant that murder was never a concern to them. They were only prevented from wreaking absolute havoc due to the presence of the Immemorial Path.

Now that even the Immemorial Path’s forces were no longer able to stop them, they had completely fallen into a frenzy.

Wherever they went, they slaughtered whatever they wanted.

Over three billion living beings were killed within just three days.

The branches of the sect in all places were eradicated, making it impossible to resist the cult.

By the 10th day, the situation had reached its breaking point. The cult had slaughtered all over the central parts of the continent and making their way to the north, where the Immemorial Path’s forces ruled.

As expected, everyone from the sect refused to go down without a fight. They organized their forces and began their defense against the ma.s.sive army of the Divine Blood Church.

That battle was unnervingly intense, lasting an entire day and night.

At first, the Immemorial Path had the upper hand considering that all of the higher-ups from the Divine Blood Church were already dead.

The cult only had a few top-notch fighters, so much so that they only had several fighters at the seventh tier of Divine Transformation Realm to spare. They had no fighter at the ninth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm.

One fighter at the ninth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm would have been enough to deliberately change the outcome of the battle, yet they didn’t have even one within their ranks.

As such, the defeat was almost an overwhelming one.

An elder of the Immemorial Path shouted angrily, “Kill every last one of these parasites! Kill them all!”

The Divine Blood Church suffered a crushing defeat on the boundless battlefield. Everything related to the cult, including the affiliated clans and sects, was crushed. The number of casualties that they sustained was staggering.

As far as the depth of resources went, the Immemorial Path still had a complete advantage after all.

However, as soon as that elder spoke up, a blast of sword aura tore through the sky and penetrated him.

Pffttt!

That Immemorial Path elder, who was at the eighth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm, wasn’t even given a chance to resist. That one blast alone was enough to leave him severely injured.

The blast of sword aura continued without stopping, punching through over 100 more people behind him before it dissipated into thin air.
