I, Who Hate Marine So Much, Have Become A Future Nika?

Chapter 100: Eternal Fall of the Heavens, Did I Unlock It Again?

"Boom!"

A massive palm imprint shattered the air, rushing forward like a heavy truck, exuding a grand and imposing aura.

However, when it reached a distance of thirty meters, the vibration of the Five Spirits Great Handprint disappeared, and without the vibration's support, the effect of the Five Elements Spirit Gathering also dissipated.

Subsequently, after flying another one hundred and twenty meters, the Five Elements Great Handprint turned into spiritual energy and collapsed.

"The maximum distance is one hundred and fifty meters, and the strongest power is around thirty meters. Not bad," Zhong Cang remarked.

"Moreover, the power is formidable between fifty and seventy meters. However, after seventy meters, the Spirit Qi Mudra begins to disperse, and the power gradually decreases."

With this experiment, Zhong Cang felt the power of the Five Spirits Great Handprint and was quite satisfied with it.

Unfortunately, the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Great Handprint could not replace the effectiveness of the Five Elements Cycle Great Handprint.

As a result, Zhong Cang was unable to meet the conditions of the True Intent Stele and obtain the techniques of the third layer.

And within a short period of time, Zhong Cang could not control it.

He wasn't too disappointed about this.

It wasn't that Zhong Cang didn't care about this technique, but rather that his Five Beasts Infusion Technique was about to advance.

Although the Five Beasts Infusion Technique was originally a Body Tempering technique, with Zhong Cang's knowledge from his previous life, he made some improvements, turning it into a Five Elements technique.

Zhong Cang was quite confident that when it advanced next time, it would possess the characteristics of the Five Elements Cycle.

Even if it hadn't mastered it before, Zhong Cang would have a great enlightenment during its advancement.

During this enlightenment, Zhong Cang constantly recalled the content about the generation of the Five Elements.

In the end, this characteristic would be guided towards the Five Elements Cycle.

Once he obtained this characteristic, it would be much easier for Zhong Cang to cultivate the Five Elements Cycle Great Handprint.

With something to rely on, Zhong Cang appeared naturally relaxed.

...

After learning the Five Spirits Sealing Great Handprint, Zhong Cang continued to search for suitable techniques in the core technique area.

After some searching, he actually found two techniques that he wanted.

One was called the Divine Thunder Sword Technique.

As the name suggests, it was a technique that used the power of the heavenly thunder to kill enemies.

In the Immortal Dao, both thunder techniques and sword techniques were popular offensive techniques.

The combination of the two naturally had extraordinary power.

What made Zhong Cang hesitate was that the Divine Thunder Sword Technique focused more on thunder rather than the sword. This didn't quite match with Zhong Cang, whose strongest ability was Sword Heart.

The other technique was called "Eternal Fall of the Heavens."

It was also a sword technique.

The vastness of the sky was represented by the term "heavens."

According to the description on the True Intent Stele, when this sword technique reached perfection, the falling giant sword would collapse the sky, leaving no place to hide or block.

Of course, this was the description on the stele. Zhong Cang's own understanding was that "Eternal Fall of the Heavens" meant soaring into the sky with a sword, then making the sword grow larger in the air, and finally, the giant sword would fall and kill the enemy.

The reason he was interested in this technique was threefold. First, the Five Organs Divine Palace True Form Diagram allowed Zhong Cang to have ten times the physical and spiritual energy of an ordinary person.

And the more spiritual energy he invested in "Eternal Fall of the Heavens," the larger the giant sword would become, making it harder to resist. This was very compatible with Zhong Cang.

The second reason was that Zhong Cang had the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Formation. If he engraved it on the sword of the heavens, it would become even larger.

The third reason was that Zhong Cang had the Gravity Art.

The falling giant sword was a perfect match for this ability.

Of course, the Divine Thunder Sword Technique on the other side also matched well with the Palm Containing Five Thunders and Call the Wind, Summon the Rain. This was also the reason Zhong Cang hesitated.

In the end, Zhong Cang, who was entangled, decided not to choose for himself. Instead, he drew out his long sword and lightly tapped it.

"Hum..."

With a crisp sword hum, in an instant, Zhong Cang's gaze changed, becoming cold and calm.

The overlapping Sword Heart plunged Zhong Cang into a state of emptiness. In this state, he ultimately chose - Eternal Fall of the Heavens.

"Do you like big ones? Then choose it."

"Hmm..."

After making the decision, Zhong Cang immediately pressed his palm onto the True Meaning Stone Tablet. Soon, information about the cultivation of Eternal Fall of the Heavens appeared in Zhong Cang's mind.

Upon accepting it, Zhong Cang was surprised to find that the intention behind this technique was quite high.

The way it made the long sword grow larger and more massive had no fancy embellishments. The core was just one thing - the unity of the Heavenly Human.

Only when one's own heart replaces the will of heaven, and the sword of the sky becomes truly cultivated, can it be considered complete.

At that time, with a single thought, the sky could transform into a long sword, crushing enemies with the might of heaven collapsing.

"Wait, by replacing one's own heart with the will of heaven, this technique is so powerful. How is it only Earth Level High Grade? It should be a proper Heaven Level sword technique..."

Perplexed, Zhong Cang continued to delve into the information passed down by the stone tablet.

Then, he discovered that the idea of replacing one's own heart with the will of heaven and turning the sky into a sword was the delusion of the creator of this technique. That predecessor had never achieved this concept even until death.

"So, that predecessor painted a big pie for me."

Although he was speechless about the predecessor's act of painting a big pie, the pie was still enticing, and Zhong Cang was willing to eat it.

As a result, he began practicing Eternal Fall of the Heavens.

During the process of learning, the feeling of "did I open it again?" appeared once again in Zhong Cang's heart.

...

Because there were no fancy embellishments, the cultivation of the first layer of Eternal Fall of the Heavens was very hardcore.

It required Zhong Cang to first achieve the Unity of Human and Sword. Only when the heart and the sword were in harmony could he be considered to have entered the first layer.

Although this step was difficult, it was reasonable.

Sword cultivation was about the sword and the person being one. Moreover, Eternal Fall of the Heavens was about soaring with the sword and finally the long sword falling.

If a sword cultivator couldn't achieve unity with the sword, the beginning of this ability couldn't be displayed.

One couldn't just ascend into the sky and then fall.

If he really did that, Zhong Cang didn't know if the enemy would die or not, but he would die first.

From the requirements of this technique and the situation of the Heavenly Thunder Sword Art, Zhong Cang even felt that the first layer requirement for any slightly higher-level sword cultivation secret technique should be the Unity of Human and Sword.

"This is the most orthodox way for sword cultivators to practice."

...

Because the Ignorant Heart Sword Art was also considered a high-level sword technique, and it was the most orthodox kind.

Having cultivated this technique to the mastery of the third realm, Zhong Cang naturally also learned the Unity of Human and Sword. Therefore, he easily passed the requirements of the first layer in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Zhong Cang hadn't realized that something was wrong.

But the situation of the second layer left him at a loss for words.

The requirements for the sky's fall in the second layer were also very high. It required Zhong Cang to comprehend the Heavenly Human's perception. Only when he could sense the heavens and the earth would he be considered to have advanced to the second layer.

Only when he could constantly sense the heavens and the earth would Zhong Cang be considered to have completed the practice of the second realm.

It was here that Zhong Cang had a feeling of having opened something himself.

He had no experience in cultivating the Heavenly Human's perception.

But when he opened the attribute panel, the column for Eternal Fall of the Heavens stated that Zhong Cang had already completed this practice and reached the mastery of the second realm.

And it was a perfect mastery.

[Eternal Fall of the Heavens, Mastery of the Second Realm (3300/3300), Special Ability: Unity of Human and Sword, Heavenly Human's Perception]

"?!?!"

"Why?"
