Chapter 289: How Many Innate Divine Abilities Does He Have After All!

How Many Innate Divine Abilities Does He Have After All!

Watching his adversary unleash Divine Skills that were similar yet vastly different from his own,

the Wu Family’s Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Great Power’s pupils contracted sharply.

But after all, as a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Great Power, the might of his Divine Skills was naturally much more formidable than those of Gu Changge from the Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm!

“How is this possible!”

Yet, as the two completely different waves collided, the Black Flame that could burn everything simply extinguished!

The Tribulation Lightning radiated the Power of Laws capable of destroying all things; even the Wu Family’s Black Flame wasn’t on the same level!

Though the Divine Skills were somewhat less powerful, their quality was entirely different.

In just an instant, a sea of Tribulation Lightning neutralized the Black Flame and swept towards the Wu Family’s Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Great Power!

Seeing that things were amiss, he immediately shifted his position, attempting to dodge.

This kid was too bizarre!

Actually using the power of Tribulation Lightning for himself, an absolute monster!

Even though his heart couldn’t accept Wu Jiang Saint’s death, he dared not directly confront this Divine Skill.

“Suppress!”

As the other tried to flee, Gu Changge immediately activated the Xuanhuang Tower.

In an instant, the Xuanhuang Tower transformed into a colossal golden pagoda phantom, enveloping him within.

The thick Xuanhuang Qi made the gravity within that area increase by tens of thousands of times!

The entire body of the Wu Family Ninth Grade Great Power sank, his feet crushing the stones and earth beneath him into the ground!

However, for a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, it wasn’t enough to trap him!

He turned into a black flame-like Tunneling Light, flickering tens of miles away!

A sea of lightning struck where he had just been, instantly turning any touched trees and flowers into ash, while small snake-like arcs flashed amongst the rocks.

“Such a pity.”

Gu Changge withdrew the Earth Rank Flying Sword in his hand as he spoke.

With the support gone, Wu Jiang Saint’s body thumped forward, collapsing.

Until his death, his face was filled with disbelief, his eyes wide with terror and confusion.

Why…

He, as the dignified Saint Heir from Immortal Ascension Sect and the Seventh Grade Unlimited Realm talent, Thanks for reading on ManaNovel!

had fallen to this young man from the Northern Domain’s barren Gu Family, unable even to withstand three moves before dying!

But he no longer had a chance to ask.

Now, Wu Jiang Saint had turned into a hundred thousand Attribute Points, collected by Gu Changge.

With his Divine Sense locked onto the Wu Family’s Ninth Grade Great Power dozens of miles away, Gu Changge shot off in pursuit!

This scene was clearly observed by Dongfang Jing via his root network.

Though his actual body stayed in the cavern, he was shocked, exclaiming monstrously!

“Just one glance was all he needed to mimic the other’s Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm Divine Skills.”

“Even… with greater power!”

“A Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm, hunting down a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm…”

“Today has really opened my eyes!”

“This young man’s talent truly is the only one I’ve seen in my life, his power terrifyingly extreme, and thankfully my… great-granddaughter has a discerning eye!”

Dongfang Jing originally thought that by using his root network, he might be able to help a little so nothing untoward would happen.

But now he found that Young Master Gu’s strength was far more fearsome than he’d imagined!

Previously, when Gu Changge made a move against him, Dongfang Jing was shocked that his Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm strength could suppress an Eight-grade Heavenly Gate Realm,

but now?

Even the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm chose to avoid his sharp edge, not daring to fight head-on!

It was only because Dongfang Jing spoke up quickly enough, otherwise his fate now might be no different than that of the Wu Family junior, dead beyond dead!

Monster…

In Dongfang Jing’s mind, only this word remained.

Genius was no longer sufficient to describe this Young Master Gu…

Even he had never heard of someone who at Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm could suppress an Eight-grade Heavenly Gate Realm, repelling a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm!

But somehow, this fanciful scene was witnessed by him in its entirety today!

“Waste!”

Even then, thousands of miles high in the sky at the boundary of the void, where two Immortal Ascension Sect Sages were engaged in a tug of war, upon witnessing this scene, their faces darkened.

They never expected the ninth peak’s Saint Wu Jiang to be so fragile!

In just a few breaths, he had died under Gu Changge’s sword!

Yet the strength shown by that youngster was truly remarkable!

Even compared to their own revered fifth peak’s Saint Jiang Li, the difference was vast!

Although Saint Jiang Li currently possessed the strength to confront Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm across Realms!

But…

This kid was only at Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm, while Saint Jiang Li had already reached Eight-grade Heavenly Gate Realm Perfection, a gap of two Great Realms between them!

Even if it were Saint Jiang Li at the Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm Perfection, he certainly couldn’t have achieved something so defying as this Young Master Gu!

Right now, all they could hope for was that Wu Family’s Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm could handle it.

Although the youngster could burst forth with Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm battle prowess, the consumption of Spiritual Energy was naturally tremendous, and it wouldn’t take many moves before he would be overwhelmed!

After all, his Realm was still too low.

However, the terrifying talent displayed had the two Immortal Ascension Sect Elders truly frightened.

Since they had already taken action, they must not leave this young man alive today!

Otherwise, one day he will become a great enemy within their hearts!

“Damn you, how dare you harm my Gu Family’s junior!”

Seeing a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm making a move against Gu Changge, Gu Haitang’s eyes widened in anger, and he was about to break free to slap that Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm to death!

“Hehe, my poor Disciple’s matter has yet to be clarified, my Daoist Fellow, so you cannot leave.”

Sage Li Fei naturally wouldn’t let him have his way and immediately intervened to stop him.

For a moment, both sides were at a deadlock.

Jian Chen and another were likewise stalled by the late-stage Sage Realms of the Immortal Ascension Sect, unable to easily extricate themselves.

“If there’s danger, speak up immediately!”

The Gu Family Ancestor’s countenance was grim as he could only transmit his voice to Gu Changge as a reminder.

If it really came to a life-threatening situation, he thought, what would it matter if he self-destructed today?

Worst comes to worst, even sacrificing his old life, he couldn’t allow Gu Changge to perish here!

He naturally realized that the Wu Family’s target had always been Gu Changge from the very beginning.

But no one wanted to be the first to point it out explicitly.

As long as they didn’t point it out, these two Sages from the Immortal Ascension Sect wouldn’t be caught by the Sword Sect.

Whether Gu Changge lived or died, they could disassociate themselves from the incident, and the Immortal Ascension Sect would naturally protect these pillars of the mid-Sage Realm.

And Jian Chen and his group also did not wish to make the opposition’s target explicit, to prevent them from acting desperately and shamelessly, possibly taking the stage to strike at Gu Changge personally!

As for that Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm adversary, at least from what he could see now, the young master should be able to handle it.

This heaven-defying strength left even Jian Chen and Zhao Hai, two Sages of the Sword Sect, dumbstruck with awe, a pity they were currently preoccupied with the Immortal Ascension Sages and had no time to be shocked or lament.

Completing the Refinement Void Realm to the Perfection at the Sixth Grade, yet strong enough to stand against the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, and even gaining the upper hand in the first clash.

This had gone beyond everyone’s expectations!

…

Upon hearing his ancestor’s voice transmission, Gu Changge nodded slightly.

He casually said, “Ancestor, don’t worry, it’s just a trifling Ninth Grade; I’ll simply cut him down!”

Such arrogant words, if uttered by someone else, would be laughable, but he truly intended to do just that.

A Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm expert was worth millions of Attribute Points; how could he let this opportunity slip away?

Even his speed increased a bit, and it didn’t take long before he caught up with the Wu Family powerhouse again.

“Young man, although you are somewhat quirky, if you think you can really slay a Ninth Grade…”

“…then you’re grossly underestimating me!”

The Wu Family powerhouse had icy cold eyes as he suddenly took a deep breath, his belly rapidly swelling.

With a great exhalation toward Gu Changge, a torrential Black Flame erupted from his mouth!

“How disgusting…”

“Do you really have to spit it out?”

Gu Changge, watching his belly bulge like a massive toad, couldn’t help but curl his lip in disdain.

This kind of Divine Skill was too distasteful for him to bother learning.

Not to mention the power, the sheer unseemliness of it.

That being said, he still didn’t dare to underestimate it.

Regardless, he was three Great Realms behind, and if he were really hit by the Divine Skill, it could hurt!

The Black Flame seemed to lock onto one’s Qi Sea, moving at astonishing speed, and was unavoidable; he could only brace for impact.

While scoffing, he had already brought out the Xuanhuang Tower, which spun slightly above his head, emitting a Xuanhuang aura that formed a barrier of separation.

At the same time, a Twelfth Grade Golden Lotus appeared in his palm.

A unique Tao Rhythm formed a shield around his body, ensuring nothing could breach his defense!

So long as his Spiritual Energy wasn’t exhausted, this protection from the Golden Lotus would shield him from all harm!

As for the opponent’s assumption that he would run out of Spiritual Energy, that might be a concern for others, but he had four Qi Seas!

And he was constantly replenishing Spiritual Energy from the heavens and earth at all times; in terms of stamina, although he might not match a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm’s, he definitely far surpassed a Sixth Grade Refining Void Realm cultivator, even reaching the Spiritual Energy standard of an Eight Grade Heavenly Gate Realm!

After he had ensured his defenses were foolproof, he even snapped his fingers with a ‘snap!’ and instantly conjured hundreds of Flying Swords made of Tribulation Lightning!

Just forming these Flying Swords used up almost twenty to thirty percent of his Spiritual Energy!

Each Flying Sword forged from Tribulation Lightning had the terrible power to severely wound an Eight Grade Heavenly Gate Realm!

And those Flying Swords instantly formed the Formless Sword Formation around the Wu Family powerhouse, attacking from all directions, causing the great power to dodge repeatedly, unable to defend against them.

In an instant, the Black Flame had completely engulfed Gu Changge’s figure.

The sky itself seemed like a sea of fire made of Black Flame, endless and vast.

“No matter how you look at it, he’s just Sixth Grade in the Refining Void Realm.”

“Under my Divine Skill, he shall find no chance to live!”

“Just didn’t expect Jiang’er to actually be slain by him…”

The Wu Family great power watched Gu Changge be devoured by the Black Flame, finally taking a long breath.

His Black Flame, even against someone of the same Realm, was rarely endured directly; it could only be countered with Divine Skills.

Even for a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, it was not easy to avoid.

This Gu Family youngster might indeed have heaven-defying talent, but today he could only die by his hand!

What a pity for Wu Jiang… He was the hope of the entire Wu Family, their future!

Yet today, he capsized in a gutter.

Now, the only option left was to slay Gu Changge and seek vengeance for the fallen!

However, as time passed, the Wu Family Ninth Grade’s frown deepened.

Supposedly, once the adversary died, their Divine Skills would also dissolve without a controller.

But several breaths had gone by, and why was he still trapped in the Sword Formation?

The Sword Formation showed no hint of dissipating!

Why wasn’t the boy dead yet!?

Divine Sense pierced through the Black Flame, and he was immediately taken aback!

At this moment, Gu Changge stood there as if nothing had happened, a Twelfth Grade Golden Lotus rotating above his left hand, emitting a unique golden Tao Rhythm protecting him.

Regardless of being engulfed by the Black Flame, it simply couldn’t reach him.

Initially, the Xuanhuang Tower abated some of the Black Flame’s power, but it still should have seeped through.

Only to be completely blocked by the Tao Rhythm emanated from the Golden Lotus when approaching him, unable to advance!

“What kind of tactic is this!?”

When the Wu Family Ninth Grade witnessed this scene, his heart couldn’t help but tremble.

That Golden Lotus did not seem like a Divine Skills technique, nor was it a Magic Treasure.

Instead, it was an Innate Divine Ability unique to those with the Talent of Dao Body!

But…

Wasn’t this youngster’s Innate Divine Ability supposed to be able to see through other people’s Divine Skills at a glance?

How come there was an additional one?

How could a person possess two Innate Divine Abilities!?

Could this be the unique characteristic of the Extreme Dao Body?

Although he was shocked that the opponent possessed two Innate Divine Abilities, he also keenly noticed that this Innate Divine Ability clearly consumed a lot of Spiritual Energy.

If the standoff continued like this, the opponent would definitely exhaust his Spiritual Energy before him!

As for himself, positioned within the Sword Array, he dared not directly resist the Flying Sword bearing the aura of Heavenly Tribulation, but concentrated fully and could dodge it!

At least for the time being, the Sword Array definitely couldn’t harm him!

He understood this point, and how could Gu Changge not understand as well?

His figure actively approached the Wu Family Ninth Grade, as if he were the one with the upper hand!

“Hmph!”

The Wu Family Great Power, upon seeing this, didn’t show weakness either. Although the opponent’s strength was beyond his expectation, he himself was ultimately from the Annihilation Realm!

He immediately went to meet the challenge.

Behind him, Black Flame surged, enveloping his entire body and transforming into a giant phantom figure a hundred zhang tall!

The Black Flame giant phantom lifted its hand and reached for Gu Changge!

“Become larger?”

“I can do that too!”

Gu Changge, upon seeing this, merely gave a slight smile and immediately connected his Spiritual Power with the Little Golden Man inside his body.

In an instant, he used his other Innate Divine Ability, Fatian Xiangdi!

His whole figure instantly transformed into a Golden Body a hundred zhang tall!

With a wave of his hand, he even swept a clearance in the sea of Black Flame!

His body emitted the unique Tao Rhythm of the Golden Lotus, blocking all damage for him!

Facing the incoming Black Flame, Gu Changge swung out a punch as well!

Upon contact, the Black Flame was directly disrupted, and his hundred zhang Dharma Form remained undamaged!

Under the stunned gaze of the Wu Family Great Power, he landed a punch directly on the true body within the Black Flame, sending it flying backward!

Meanwhile, a series of Tribulation Lightning Flying Swords continuously fell from the Sword Array, trailing closely behind.

Unfortunately, they too were blocked and dissolved by the Black Flame!

“Innate Divine Abilities… more Innate Divine Abilities!”

“What kind of monster has mastered so many Innate Divine Abilities!?”

“Is he really from the Human Clan?”

The Wu Family Ninth Grade quickly steadied his own body, his face full of disbelief.

If it hadn’t been for such shock, he should have been able to dodge that punch…

For a moment, as he looked at the approaching Golden Body Dharma, he felt as though he was facing an Ancient Fierce Beast!

He even had the thought of running away to break free!

But upon calming down, he also suppressed his emotions, his realm after all having inherent weaknesses.

His continuous combat capability was insufficient!

Moreover, if today he couldn’t kill him and allowed him to continue growing, in the future, the entire Wu Family, as he said, would probably be truly doomed!

He immediately continued to launch attacks.

His nearly hundred zhang tall Black Flame phantom, in front of Gu Changge’s Golden Body Dharma, however, seemed slightly shorter and noticeably smaller.

Even the power it burst forth with was also somewhat inferior.

But Gu Changge’s consumption of Spiritual Energy was also extremely fast, just in this brief moment, together with the earlier use of hundreds of Tribulation Lightning Flying Swords, more than half of his Spiritual Energy had already been consumed!

However, the Wu Family Great Power, at this time, had only used about twenty percent of his Spiritual Energy!

Despite Gu Changge’s burst of power being able to slightly suppress him, it was hardly enough to cause serious injury, at most it could inflict a minor wound.

Continuing this way, the scales of victory were still tilting towards the Wu Family Great Power.

Seeing this scene, the bystanders had varied thoughts.

Dongfang Jing couldn’t stop marveling in his heart; this youngster was simply a monster.

The two Sages from the Immortal Ascension Sect were also continuously shocked by the strength displayed by Young Master Gu.

This had far surpassed their previous expectations!

Even Sage Jian Chen and Sage Zhao, seeing the young master’s display of power, couldn’t help but want to exclaim.

But they could also see that the young master was running out of strength!

Continuing like this, there was fear of trouble occurring!

“If you continue to be unyielding, sir, I will have no choice but to drag you down with me!”

Gu Haitang, seeing this situation, was even more anxious.

His face turned red, and he directly issued a harsh threat to Sage Li Fei, who was continuously blocking him!

He even directly made a move as if he was ready to self-destruct!

“Hehe… self-destruct?”

“If I hide in the void, what can you do to me?”

Li Fei, however, didn’t take it seriously and coldly chuckled. Today, they must not let this Gu Family Young Master survive!

The situation momentarily entered a deadlock.

Sage Jian Chen, seeing this, clenched his teeth and exclaimed, “Wait until the elder from the Dongfang Family arrives, then it will be your three’s death day!”

Previously, the young master had already notified the Dongfang Family, and it wouldn’t take long for them to come!

Considering the speed of the Dongfang Family ancestor, he could arrive in half a day!

This news also made the two Sages from the Immortal Ascension Sect slightly frown.

They didn’t know whether he was bluffing or if it was true!

But considering the Gu Family’s youngster, he might not last that long.

As they watched his Spiritual Energy consumption increase, the Wu Family’s Ninth Grade’s face showed delight.

Even so, to reduce his Spiritual Energy consumption, he had already actively dispersed his Fatian Xiangdi Innate Divine Ability!

“Kid, such a talented person as you will also die by my hand today!”

“Don’t delay; it’s time to pay Jiang’er back!”

Sensing that the opponent now had at most twenty percent of his Spiritual Energy left, the Wu Family Ninth Grade’s attacks grew even fiercer.

He even actively dispersed his own protective Spiritual Energy, as Gu Changge no longer posed a threat to him in his eyes!

But Gu Changge just slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

He was waiting for just one opportunity, one flaw was enough!

The opponent, being impatient, had just given him that opportunity.

‘Clang—’

With the sound of a bell echoing through heaven and earth, everything in front of Gu Changge came to a standstill.

Including the Wu Family Great Power who was almost within reach, even the surging Black Flame was completely stilled at that moment.

The Transcendence Talent Divine Ability of the Tao Bell was his real trump card!

With limited time for Transcendence, he dared not delay, and in a flash, he appeared behind the Wu Family Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, focusing a Purple Thunder in his palm, shaping it into the form of a Flying Sword.

Carrying an overwhelming Sword Force, he slashed down!
