CHAPTER 555: CHAPTER 554 TAOIST SKILL: HEAVEN REPAIRING SKILL

*No matter how divine the techniques were or how mystical they seemed, they were rendered ineffective in the face of absolute power.*

The power of Bai Ziyue, who exhibited the Divine Spirit Body, was overwhelmingly strong. Every gesture and move contained terrifying strength. When he executed the Immortal Martial Hand Seal, even though its power wasn’t particularly strong and wasn’t even a divine technique, it still possessed a terrifying might comparable to a full-strength strike of an early-stage Golden Core Cultivator.

Master Xiongshan was merely an Eight-star Divine Realm Powerhouse, equivalent to the second level of the Divine Realm Peak. Even though this transformation skill was not weak, it couldn’t withstand even a casual strike from Bai Ziyue and was directly reduced to a pulp.

With thoughts flickering in his mind, Bai Ziyue slightly waved his hand to collect the spoils from his opponent and then dispelled the Divine Spirit Body Great Divine Techniques on himself.

"Oof, oof..."

Once the Divine Spirit Body was dispelled, a sense of ’weakness’ immediately arose within him, leaving him feeling rather despondent.

"The Divine Spirit Body possesses infinite might and indeed greatly amplifies my strength.

But unfortunately, it consumes divine thought too terrifyingly; otherwise, I would truly want to maintain it for a longer time."

Bai Ziyue sensed his divine thought, nearly depleted, shook his head and sighed. His figure flickered and swiftly vanished without a trace.

After a dozen breaths, Bai Ziyue’s figure reappeared in a natural cave.

He took out the Sumeru True Mansion he had acquired in an early auction, stayed inside it, and then glanced at the number of Soul Energy.

"The Soul Energy has reached over seventy million again? That’s equivalent to an increase of twenty million points within merely dozens of breaths... This feeling, indeed, is quite nice.

However, at this point, the growth in Soul Energy has noticeably slowed down.

I reckon most of the Demon Cultivators at the Divine Realm Level must have already been slain by True Monarch Zhenyue and others, and most of those at the Enlightenment Realm Level must have perished as well.

Though the Soul Energy is still rapidly increasing, it now appears rather scattered.

I estimate that in the end, it will at most elevate my Soul Energy to around ninety million, and not reach one hundred million, the level for the ultimate upgrade."

Bai Ziyue observed the rapidly increasing number of Soul Energy on the Attribute Panel, and with a sigh, he quickly made a judgment.

This was also an estimation he made based on the increased amount of Soul Energy every time an elite fell, according to the Attribute Panel. Although not perfectly precise, it was not far off.

This situation made him secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

However, he soon became somewhat restless.

"Now, with five Great Divine Techniques under my belt, all of which have been improved to Perfection Level, theoretically, they shouldn’t require much Soul Energy expenditure.

But, I lack an attack technique completely aligned with myself, created based on my cultivation technique."

Bai Ziyue frowned, a trace of contemplation flashing across his face.

Even if he could fully unleash the power of each Great Divine Technique.

The so-called extremity was merely the extremity of predecessors’ methods, based on predecessor cultivation technique levels, but not his own extremity.*

*Therefore, though executing these Great Divine Techniques felt smooth, he always sensed a feeling of something missing.*

*His cultivation technique, after all, was the most pinnacle cultivation technique of the time, with Enlightenment Realm Level capable of igniting one thousand two hundred ninety-six acupoints, the Peak Technique, Primordial Daoist Method. Even the Heaven-Devouring Divine Transformation Technique was derived from the Primordial Daoist Method.*

*Naturally, his strength, power, foundation, divine thought strength, soul strength, physical strength... all aspects were far more profound than those of countless others, surpassing the creators of all these divine techniques and Great Divine Techniques.*

"Therefore, I need a technique that can completely unleash my power.

I need a technique to truly showcase my strength.

I need a technique to boldly face the world and conquer all things.

This technique is uniquely mine, akin to my Innate Divine Techniques, possessed solely by me.

It is my Lifebound Technique, rooted in my cultivation technique."

Bai Ziyue murmured, eyes lifting slightly, a hint of fervor flickering across his gaze.

At this moment, his spirits soared, his fighting spirit flamed, rising like the morning sun... feeling somewhat hot-blooded and impatient.

"Activate Enlightenment Time, time unlimited..."

Bai Ziyue turned his thoughts.

Instantly, he felt his position, perception, divine thought, soul perception, his understanding of heaven and earth, enlightenment... and all other senses, enhanced countless times in this moment.

All fleeting inspirations flashing in his mind, the subtle changes of naturally operating Dao principles in heaven and earth, certain spur-of-the-moment ideas... all vividly displayed in his mind.

In a moment, all his previous accumulations, all various divine techniques, Great Divine Techniques, various attack techniques, magic, perceptions of the movement of the Great Dao... all transformed into formulae, intensely collided in his mind.

Sparks were further ignited.

Then Bai Ziyue extracted pieces of those sparks and closely integrated them with his self-created Primordial Daoist Method and Heaven-Devouring Divine Transformation Technique.

Completely based on the characteristics of his cultivation technique, thinking pattern, rooted in himself, he began to gradually create that unique ’technique’ of his own.

This was a process similar to grinding with water, requiring not only immensely profound foundations but also that moment of inspiration and divine-like insight.

Fortunately, Bai Ziyue lacked none of these.

Under Enlightenment Time, his inspiration was limitless.

And in terms of foundation, he could even contend with top-notch Golden Core Realm Powerhouses...

Time passed.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

Bai Ziyue seemed as though he couldn’t sense the passage of time, his thoughts swirling intensely.

The changes in the outside world, the rising and setting of the sun and moon, felt completely insensible.

Suddenly, Bai Ziyue’s heart trembled.

His eyes suddenly opened wide.

No joy, no sorrow.

Yet in that indifferent gaze, a hint of mysterious brilliance flashed.

"This technique..."

Bai Ziyue’s expression was enigmatic.

After a long while, he let out a deep sigh and whispered, "My technique is too reckless.

Though it was just a prototype.

This technique has no fixed method of implementation, requiring the assistance of all laws of heaven and earth to be perfected.

As long as my strength didn’t reach the peak, didn’t look down upon all creations, didn’t transcend the Heaven and Earth Dao.

This technique would always be a prototype.

Initially, I thought it was destined to fail, but didn’t expect I actually created it."

This time, the technique Bai Ziyue created, at its core, focused on the word ’repair.’

At the conceptual level, it transcended ’Divine Techniques,’ reaching the realm of ’Dao.’

"In the Immortal Technique World, such transcendent attacking techniques and defense techniques are referred to as ’Daoist skills,’ taking the meaning of containing the Great Dao of heaven and earth.

The technique I created this time carries a hint of ’Daoist skill.’

Though essentially it is just a prototype, it can seamlessly integrate various attacking techniques and defense techniques, thereby fully revealing these techniques through my inherent power.

For example, the Primordial Magnetic Great Cutting, if used with my previous strength, could only reach the peak of the Mid-stage Golden Core Realm level.

But essentially, the cultivation technique level of the cultivator who created the Primordial Magnetic Great Cutting, based on the count of acupoint ignitions, was actually only one thousand and eighty.

Thus, when I used this Great Divine Technique, the number of acupoints I utilized was merely one thousand and eighty, not fully leveraging the advantage of my one thousand two hundred ninety-six acupoints.

Yet if I harness my created technique or ’Daoist skill’ to perform it, it’s equivalent to elevating the grade of this Primordial Magnetic Great Cutting to the cultivation technique level of one thousand two hundred ninety-six acupoints.

With my current strength, it should directly reach the level of a full-force strike comparable to a Late-stage Golden Core Cultivator.

This invisibly enhanced my strength and the power of Divine Techniques.

The same applies to other Divine Power Techniques; as long as I use my created ’Daoist skill’ to perform them, their power can be elevated once more.

This elevation is originally limited by the creator’s cultivation technique level, but was compensated by my Daoist skill."

Bai Ziyue silently analyzed, meticulously comprehending the characteristics of this ’Daoist skill,’ feeling incredibly excited.

"So, ultimately, my Daoist skill actually functions as a converter.

To say it’s powerful, for many cultivators, it’s essentially irrelevant.

After all, many Divine Techniques levels are higher than their own cultivation technique levels.

But because my cultivation technique level is extremely high, achieving the ultimate of cultivators of the same level, this ’converter’s’ role and power immediately reach the pinnacle."

Bai Ziyue felt very satisfied with this creation.

Such a technique is far superior to mere attacking techniques and defense techniques.

Because single attacking techniques, while strong, are powerful only in one aspect, his newly created Daoist skill enables him to reach top-tier levels across all aspects.

With just a brief comparison, anyone could discern the difference.

"In that case, I will name this newly created technique the Heaven Repairing Skill.

Using the Heaven Repairing Skill to perform various Divine Techniques and Great Divine Techniques, it can elevate the powers of these Divine Techniques and Great Divine Techniques to the utmost. In essence, isn’t it a form of ’completion’?

This Heaven Repairing Skill truly aligns with this technique."

With a brief contemplation, Bai Ziyue quickly determined the name of this Daoist skill.

And at the moment he named this Daoist skill, he immediately saw that a new line appeared on his Attribute Panel.

"Daoist skill: Heaven Repairing Skill."

"Indeed, my technique greatly surpassed Divine Techniques and Great Divine Techniques, reaching another level.

This time, it truly was an explosive culmination of all my accumulated heritage.

However, despite the powerful capacity of the Heaven Repairing Skill, should I wish to enhance my Divine Techniques to the utmost, the consumption of Divine Thought power would be remarkably high.

Taking the use of the Primordial Magnetic Great Cutting as a measure, performing it once would require consuming ten percent of my Divine Thought power. If I needed to enhance somewhat weaker Divine Power Techniques like Silent Extinction Divine Light, Shrinking Inches, and Small Spirit-Banning Technique to their utmost, the required consumption of Divine Thought power would directly exceed fifty percent..."

Bai Ziyue couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed with emotions.
