Chapter 827: 638 Witch Lich Battlefield, Hunting Fierce Beasts_2

Take, for example, the Divine Thunder of Heaven before our eyes. In terms of power, it surpassed even the mightiest Heavenly Sha Qi, making it the most formidable Thunder Dao in the Prehistoric World. Even the Zixiao Divine Thunder created by the Taoist Ancestors couldn’t compare.

During the great battle at the Eastern Sea just now, Jiang Chen had not used the Divine Thunder of Heaven. This was the greatest surprise he had reserved for his foes, so how could he reveal it so easily? Apart from the terrifying Divine Thunder of Heaven, Jiang Chen also mastered another dreadful thunder technique, namely, the Chaotic God Thunder.

This was also a profound Divine Ability from the Great Dao, originating from the Thunder Demon God. It contained the true essence of the Great Dao, transformed from the wrath of the Great Dao, and destroyed all things, returning everything to Chaos.

This ultimate thunder technique of Chaos harbored supreme killing power and destructive force, its might equal to that of all Heavenly Divine Thunders.

These two Great Dao Thunders clashed endlessly in the depths of Thunder Marsh for countless years without determining a victor. The undying power they released evolved into Thunder Marsh, this Thunder Dao Holy Land. Their formidable power was evident from this alone.

Boom!

The Divine Thunder of Heaven burst forth, the space between Heaven and Earth completely saturated with purple lightning. A supreme pioneering force erupted, striking the whale-like Fierce Beast, intending to reduce its flesh and soul to nothingness and birth a new world in its place.

The power of the Divine Thunder of Heaven was the exact opposite of the Chaotic God Thunder—while the latter destroyed everything, the former pioneered everything, splitting open Chaos and creating sky and earth.

Roar...

The whale-like Fierce Beast cried out in pain, emitting a deep and ancient roar, reminiscent of the Dao Sound that resonated ceaselessly.

"Not good!"

The moment the sound reached Jiang Chen’s ears, he knew something was amiss. He immediately moved at an unimaginable speed towards the deeper void, trying to escape the range of the sound, but he was a step too late.

Humming...

A low Dao Sound echoed through Jiang Chen’s Sea of Consciousness, causing his Innate Indestructible True Spirit to shudder uncontrollably as if struck by myriad attacks, emitting a humming noise.

Crack! Crack...

As if reaching its limit, tiny cracks appeared on Jiang Chen’s Innate Indestructible True Spirit, and they began to spread further, as if on the verge of collapse.

At that moment, sensing its master’s peril, the Upper Qing Divine Talisman suddenly erupted, casting out thousands of radiant lights. It enveloped Jiang Chen’s True Spirit, expelling the Dao Sound from his Sea of Consciousness and halting the further deterioration of his True Spirit.

Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Chen leaped into a deeper level of the void and escaped the area enveloped by the whale’s sound.

"That was close!"

"Is this the power of a Quasi-Saint? Just one Divine Ability almost shattered my Innate True Spirit, inflicting severe injuries on me."

After reaching a safe place, Jiang Chen had a look of lingering fear on his face. He knew Quasi-Saints were powerful, but he didn’t expect them to be this powerful—that just one Divine Ability had nearly left him gravely injured.

Swish...

Strands of divine light began to emerge from Jiang Chen’s forehead, exhibiting purple, jade, and green hues as they continuously revolved, absorbing the primordial energies from between Heaven and Earth. They transformed into a mysterious power that merged into Jiang Chen’s True Spirit, quickly repairing the damage there.

Others’ True Spirits would be severely injured or bear cracks and require a substantial amount of time to recuperate, but not Jiang Chen’s. His True Spirit was special, known as the Innate Indestructible True Spirit. Because it was proven through power, it encompassed some characteristics of Chaos, namely indestructibility.

Therefore, even if his True Spirit was shattered, it could quickly reassemble, though it would become extremely weak.

Unlike other Innate Taoist Masters, their indestructible True Spirits also needed lengthy eons to recover and fully restore after being shattered.

The difference between the Chaotic Indestructible True Spirit and the Innate Indestructible True Spirit lay in the time it takes to recover. The former could quickly reform even if the True Spirit was shattered; the latter could also reform but required a lengthy period.

Both were indestructible, but the gap was quite evident.

Of course, Jiang Chen only possessed some characteristics of the Chaotic True Spirit; its essence was still the Innate Indestructible True Spirit. Compared to a real Chaotic True Spirit, there were still some differences, with many mysteries that Jiang Chen couldn’t utilize.

And every time his True Spirit was fully shattered, the characteristics of the Chaotic True Spirit that he harbored would partially diminish. If his True Spirit shattered too many times, that aspect of it would completely vanish.

After all, Jiang Chen was an Innate Saint, not a Saint of Chaos.

...

"The Dao Fruit of Pangu’s primordial spirit truly is profound, even the injuries to the True Spirit can be recovered."

Soon, the injuries on Jiang Chen’s True Spirit were completely healed, once again becoming as unified as Primordial Chaos.

"My power is still too weak. Although I can crush an Innate Dao Sovereign, compared to a Quasi-Saint, there is still a great gap. If it were not so, I wouldn’t have almost suffered severe injuries from that Quasi-Saint fierce beast with just one move."

Jiang Chen looked ahead and saw the Quasi-Saint fierce beast continually roaring, its deep and distant voice bursting forth. With the beast at the center, circles of terrifying sound waves rapidly spread in all directions.

Without the suppression of Divine Thunder of Heaven, the fierce beast completely let loose, beginning to wantonly destroy everything around it.

"In terms of strength, I am indeed far inferior to this Quasi-Saint level fierce beast, but unfortunately for it, fierce beasts have one fatal weakness, that is the complete lack of spiritual intelligence. Moreover, because of the intense Sha Qi in its body, it cannot activate an Innate Spiritual Treasure."

"The power of a cultivator lies not only in divine abilities and cultivation level, but also in Innate Spiritual Treasures."

Knowing he was no match for the Quasi-Saint fierce beast, Jiang Chen reached up and pulled out the Heavenly Dao hairpin from his head, holding it in his hand. Instantly, rays of multicolored radiance twinkled, transforming into a multicolored longsword in his grasp.

The Heavenly Dao hairpin, transformed from the Sun God’s staff, was a treasure heavy with Heavenly Dao, a top-tier Innate Spiritual Treasure. It could execute the killings sanctioned by Heaven and take life without karmic repercussions.

To deal with Master Randeng, Jiang Chen could abstain from using Innate Spiritual Treasures, but facing this Quasi-Saint fierce beast, he couldn’t. The consequences of not using Innate Spiritual Treasures were something he had experienced firsthand just a moment ago, almost resulting in severe injuries.

Swish, swish, swish...

Following the Heavenly Dao hairpin, Innate Spiritual Treasures on Jiang Chen’s body erupted one after another.

First was the Shenxiao jade crown atop his head, suddenly bursting forth with ten thousand thunderous lights, evolving into a nine-tiered heavenly palace behind him. Then, the Creation Green Lotus illuminated, evolving the primordial qi of all heavens, circling around him.

...

One after another, Innate Spiritual Treasures erupted, their holy radiance spreading far and wide, engulfing Jiang Chen’s silhouette, making him appear even more sacred.

At the same time, Jiang Chen began to gather all his power, and within him, Chaos roared. It evolved the illusory images of gods, constantly praising, beckoning the power of the heavens and other dimensions, bestowing strength upon Jiang Chen.

The next moment, in the center of Chaos, atop the twelve-ranked Creation Green Lotus, the Divine Fetus within the Great Dao opened its eyes suddenly.

In an instant, a profound power spread from him, resonating with Heaven and Earth.

Boom!

Endless Heavenly Dao rules emerged, fortifying Jiang Chen, elevating his strength to an entirely new level.

At this moment, Jiang Chen felt better than ever before. His power was unprecedentedly strong.

"Kill!"

Raising the multicolored longsword in his hand, Jiang Chen didn’t hesitate and leaped forward to strike.

When Jiang Chen made his move, it was an ultimate killing technique.

Atop the multicolored longsword, an aura of total annihilation surfaced, turning into a beam of sword light that burst forth, ignoring both time and space, directly striking the whale-like fierce beast.

Immortal Extinction Sword!

The sword technique in Jiang Chen’s possession with the strongest killing power was not passed down from the Upper Qing Saints but acquired from Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.

In that most ancient era, Demon Ancestor Luo Hou built the Immortal Extinction Sword on this very sword intent. This was the precursor to the Immortal Extinction Sword, its might so formidable it was known to extinguish all vitality in Heaven and Earth.

Swish!

The sword light struck, this strike containing all of Jiang Chen’s power, disregarding distance, and hit the whale-like fierce beast directly.

Instantly, a shrill scream arose, and a colossal gash suddenly split open along the back of the whale-like fierce beast, deep enough to reveal bone.
