Chapter 683: Chapter 683: Cycle Heavenly Palm

As the sun rose on the tenth day,

Qin Jun got out of bed and sent a maid to pass on an order for Red Boy and Evening Star to come see him.

He now had no shortage of Daluo Golden Immortals under his control, so it was fortunate he could promote old subordinates.

Among the God and Demons who had followed him from the beginning, Evening Star and Red Boy had made the greatest contributions and probably still had potential.

He had originally wanted to find Guan Yu, but since Guan Yu was still commanding troops at the borders of the Southern Domain, he had to dismiss the thought.

With one remaining random draw prize, he planned to save it for an emergency.

If a powerful enemy attacked and Great Qin was powerless, he could only forcibly promote Luo Shixin and Hou Yi to the peak of God and Demon, especially Luo Shixin, whose Qilin ancestry’s strength was beyond doubt, even to the point that the system said it might not be able to contain him.

At noon, Red Boy and Evening Star came to see Qin Jun in the Imperial Garden.

After Qin Jun explained the situation to them, he sent them into the peak of God and Demon.

"I do not ask for you to become much stronger, just to improve a bit," Qin Jun murmured to himself.

Straightaway, he picked up the Seven Star Sword and began to cultivate.

After practicing three sets of sword techniques in succession, Qin Jun found that he could never reach an ideal state.

His swordsmanship could be considered exquisite, but it couldn’t be said to have reached the Dao, and it was even less proficient than his spear techniques, despite him possessing the heaven-breaking Divine Power.

The heaven-breaking Divine Power was peculiar, as it didn’t necessarily require a sword, merely a slashing motion.

"If using a sword doesn’t suit me, why force it?"

Ji Yongsheng snorted coldly, causing Qin Jun to stop his movements and ask in confusion, "Do you mean I should stop practicing the sword?"

He had been practicing the sword for more than a day or two, and it would be quite painful for him to stop now.

Nothing is more feared than futile effort.

"You must have gained some insights while practicing the sword, but the Sword Dao, as well as the Dao of other weapons, require a certain degree of compatibility, even talent," explained Ji Yongsheng. "The reason I never told you is because you were too weak. If you could master all eighteen types of weapons, that would be ideal."

"But one thing is certain, the Extreme Emperor Demon God inherently does not need weapons."

"In fact, most body cultivators don’t need weapons at all. Take Sun Wukong, Yuan Hong, and Yang Jian for example, do you rely on weapons?"

"Divine weapons are merely their means of attack, but for a pure sword cultivator, unity with the sword is essential, and without the sword, their combat ability greatly diminishes."

Ji Yongsheng’s words caused Qin Jun to begin deep contemplation.

Indeed, taking Sun Wukong as an example, he didn’t really use a specific stick technique; it was purely brute force, easily overpowering many.

Truth be told, Qin Jun also liked the straightforward and brute force approach.

With that in mind, he put the Seven Star Sword back at his waist. Body cultivation excelled in techniques of movement, punches, and kicks, among other things.

Of course, there were some geniuses proficient in both the Dao of weapons and possessing strong physical bodies, but due to the limitations after awakening the Extreme Emperor Demon God bloodline, Qin Jun was destined not to achieve deep mastery in the Dao of weapons.

"Actually, you could practice the Cycle Heavenly Palm more. That is a supreme technique," Ji Yongsheng reminded.

The Cycle Heavenly Palm!

Now, Qin Jun had already reached the second level and could summon two Cycle Heavenly Palms simultaneously, but progressing further was tremendously difficult.

"Enough of that, I’ll pass on another palm technique to you!"

Ji Yongsheng sighed, though his tone was filled with amusement.

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun’s eyes immediately lit up.

To him, Ji Yongsheng was like another mythological marketplace, where he found the items in the store too expensive to his liking. Ji Yongsheng was different; he was seen as a beacon of hope, with no effort spared.

Soon, a vast flood of memories entered his mind, causing his consciousness to explode instantaneously.

"Cycle Heavenly Palm!"

"One palm shatters mountains!"

"Two palms subdue seas!"

"Three palms break heaven!"

"Four palms strike stars!"

...

About an hour later, Qin Jun’s consciousness slowly awoke.

He couldn’t help but open his eyes, wonder sparkling in them, joy written all over his face.

"What a domineering Cycle Heavenly Palm!" Qin Jun excitedly thought to himself.

One palm shatters mountains, two palms subdue the seas, three palms break the heavens, four palms strike the stars, five palms move the sun, six palms yin and yang, seven palms reincarnation!

With three palms mastered, one can traverse this world with ease.

With seven palms mastered, one can make ghosts and gods cry, invincible in all the world!

Under the inheritance of Ji Yongsheng, Qin Jun directly learned the first two palms.

The essence of the Cycle Heavenly Palm lies in its overpowering force. He channeled his mana and raised his hand towards the sky to strike.

Boom—

A golden mana converged into a massive palm of gold, which rapidly grew to a hundred zhang in size and struck the heavens.

Its grand momentum allowed most of the cultivators in the Holy City to witness this scene.

"What is that?"

"Could there be an enemy?"

"That’s not right, it’s coming from Saint Emperor Peak. Someone is practicing on Saint Emperor Peak!"

"Who dares to act so recklessly?"

"Nonsense, it must be the Holy Emperor!"

The sounds of debate were uproarious; many ministers and mighty warriors also witnessed it, but no one dared to investigate.

If Qin Jun were in danger, the Imperial Guards would send out a signal, not to mention that Daluo was hidden atop Saint Emperor Peak.

As he watched the clouds in the high sky disperse, Qin Jun let out a breath and whispered with a light laugh, "Stylish!"

The domineering strike of the palm indeed felt more exhilarating than practicing swordsmanship!

"Cycle Heavenly Palm, back then, I only managed to practice up to the fourth palm, and the Cycle of Heavenly Wheels only up to the fifth layer," Ji Yongsheng’s voice resonated once again: "These two techniques, I came upon them by chance, they could even be considered as Divine Powers, immensely powerful. I hope you can perfect them to completion."

Qin Jun felt a surge of curiosity, obtained by chance?

You think these are cabbages, huh? Picking up two just like that...

"Actually, both of them are inheritances that I stumbled upon by chance. It was this inheritance that allowed me to grow strong enough to contend with immortals and gods," Ji Yongsheng said with an emotional tone.

Inheritance?

Qin Jun grew even more curious and quickly asked, "Can you tell me more about it?"

"Actually, I don’t know much myself, I only know his name, Extreme Emperor!"

Extreme Emperor?

What a crappy name, why does it sound so odd?

Qin Jun began to let his thoughts wander, while Ji Yongsheng said no more, seemingly lost in the memories of the past.

At this time, the Double-pupil Bird and the little Torch Dragon flew over from the Royal Garden. The bird and the dragon were now inseparable. Although the Torch Dragon had grown quite a bit, its nature remained childlike, and it had now become the follower of the Double-pupil Bird.

Seeing them, Qin Jun couldn’t help but look up and smile, then immediately continued to meditate, pondering the mystique of the Cycle Heavenly Palm.

...

The Demon Wasteland.

The Six-Eared Macaque led three Great Demon Kings and knelt before the fortress of the Demon Ancestor, shivering.

They had failed again!

The Six-Eared Macaque himself wished he could find a crevice in the ground to crawl into.

But this time, the enemies they encountered were too strong.

"How did it go?" the voice of the Demon Emperor echoed from within the castle, under gloomy clouds, his voice sounded all the more horrifying in the dark land.

"We failed. This time the Demon Emperor, Western Domain, Great Qin Heaven, and even the Corpse Emperor Palace sent people..." The Six-Eared Macaque knelt on the ground and gritted its teeth. It had thought about running away, but where in the vast world could it go?

The Demon Emperor was one of the top powerhouses between heaven and earth, and the Demon Wasteland was one of the six halls and three places.

Where else could he possibly flee to?

Besides, the Demon Emperor held something he could not resist.

"Failed again?" The voice of the Demon Emperor instantly turned ice-cold, like a bone-piercing cold wind blowing towards the six-eared macaque and the four
