Chapter 611: Battle against the Ancestor of Technique

Translator:?_Tat_??Editor:?Rundi

Fa Wu Liang was an extremely bright name and an undying name.

He was extremely talented and because of his work in the creation of techniques, he was named the Ancestor of Technique. Praised by generations of cultivators, he was seen as their new birth mother and father and granted low leveled cultivators the option to climb higher.

What surprised and made him even more memorable was his powerful and peaking battling abilities.

Based on historical records, during his era, he had surpassed everyone in the world and was undefeatable. With his insane abilities, he peered down onto everyone and it was difficult to find opponents that were as powerful as him, even today.

In terms of battling abilities alone, in the history of time, he was definitely in the front line!

Compared to these few immortals, perhaps only the Untainted could put up a fight against him.

For one, the Immortal of Alchemy, the Immortal of Arrays, and the Immortal of Crafts did not focus on cultivation. For two, the Ancestor of Technique was truly strong!

Strong enough to out power everyone in the past and in the present, strong enough to conquer all nine levels of heaven and all 10 levels of hell!

Therefore, when the Ancestor of Technique made his move, the entire Painting of Immortals began to shake. It was as if the sky above everyone was crumbling down and the space was being squashed down!

The sudden change made the immortals’ face change color. Even the Keeper of Land and Sea had a look of shock and shuddered.

But very quickly, they restored their normal attitude. Because they realized it was the Ancestor of Technique testing Ling Xian to see if he had the ability to handle the responsibilities they were about to place onto him.

Therefore, the other immortals didn’t step out to help. Instead, they smiled in a relaxing manner.

The Immortal of Alchemy was especially excited. It was as if he was waiting for his apprentice to show off everything he had got in order to astound these two newly awakened immortals.

Obviously, they were all confident about Ling Xian.

They all knew that the Ancestor of Technique was only testing Ling Xian and he wouldn’t hurt him. However, Ling Xian didn’t know this.

He had just entered the Painting of the Nine Immortals and had just been attacked. Anyone would be flustered at this. The attack itself was also insanely powerful. Anyone would be flustered at this.

Luckily, he had been cultivating for many years and had been up against countless enemies. Therefore, the sudden sneak up only startled him for a second before he calmed down again.

Then, an infinite amount of light exploded from all around Ling Xian as he shouted, “Break!”

Just then, the Halberd of the Divine Warrior emerged, pierced across the sky and defended against the Ancestor of Technique!

HOMMMM!

One was an unnamed technique, the other was the second transformative quality of the Eyes of Execution. The clashing of the two resulted in a terrifying vibration that crushed the void.

Therefore, Ling Xian stumbled backward by the strong wave of force. It took him 10 steps backward before he stabilized himself.

The light emitted by the Halberd of the Divine Warrior dimmed as well.

This was normal. The Ancestor of Technique was at the same level as the Untainted, making him extremely powerful. Ling Xiang was still young and was caught in a surprise. To not have been wounded was already an achievement.

“Haha, great!”

Laughing loudly, Fa Wu Liang didn’t just see Ling Xian lightly, instead, his eyes were looking at Ling Xian with praises. Nobody knew this attack better than he did, and only the Untainted could completely stand still in the sight of this attack.

To have surprised Ling Xian and for him to simply stumble, this alone was enough to prove his powerfulness. Why wouldn’t the Ancestor of Technique admire him?

Admirations aside, the test wasn’t over.

“Since you are the chosen one appointed by the Immortal of Alchemy, then you should accept my test. I will ask you one thing, do you dare to fight against me?” Fa Wu Liang’s white hair was prancing in the wind and his entire body was exuding with terror.

Ling Xian frowned. He now understood why this person was attacking him suddenly. This fueled his desire for battle.

Since he was the chosen one, then he had no right to avoid or be easily defeated. If that happened, not only would he lose face, Liao Cang Qiong would also be embarrassed.

Plus he didn’t even know who that person was. But he knew that if one can fly, one isn’t a simple character. He must be a famous powerhouse from the past!

If he doesn’t feel his desire to battle grow within him against a powerhouse, then he wouldn’t be Ling Xian.

So what they were real immortals?

Ling Xian only respects them, he doesn’t fear them!

Therefore, he first paid his respect to the Ancestor of Technique, then uttered out a statement that was seemingly respectable, but in reality was wildly arrogant.

“If the immortal is inviting me to fight, how can I possibly not accept?”

At that, the Ancestor of Technique and the Immortal of Crafts laughed out loud. Liao Cang Qiong and others had a look of admiration on their faces.

“Alright, if that’s the case, then let me see just how much you can handle.”

Fa Wu Liang grinned, “The attack just now… I lowered my Qi so it’s of the advanced stage of the completion level. I will do the same from now on, you better be careful.”

Ling Xian’s expression was serious. Nobody who could fly through the cloud was a person without accomplishments. They were all aggressive figures who had reached extreme heights.

Therefore, he didn’t dare to be reckless. As he summoned his Eyes of Execution, he breathed out three words.

“Come at me.”

“Determined!”

Grinning, the Ancestor of Technique approached with his left hand summoning the Light of Solidified Fire, and his right hand summoning the Blade of Wind – two of the lowest level of ninth realm techniques. The nature began to roar!

Ling Xian had a slight change of expression. He couldn’t understand why the two lowest leveled techniques were bringing him such a sense of threat.

However, the terrifying attack had arrived. He had no time to think too much.

“Break!”

Shouting, Ling Xian’s Armor of the Royal Spirits and the Halberd of the Divine Warrior both became dazzling with light and destroyed the ball of flame that was approaching him.

Yet in the very next second, a sea of fire materialized. The terrifying high temperature made his entire face flush red.

“The combination of two low leveled techniques can result in a life-threatening attack. Who is this person? How is he so knowledgeable about these?”

Ling Xian’s expression changed yet again. The Burnished Mirror of Spirituality finally showed itself above his head. It then shot out an undying ray of light that paved out a path within the sea of fire.

Pity though, just as he managed to escape the sea of fire, he saw many balls of thunder howling towards him. The terrifying vigor made his head feel fuzzy. He felt like the powers coming from these thunderous balls were on par with the God’s Trial from a while ago.

HOMMMM!

In moment’s time, Ling Xian decided to fight this attack head-on. He held onto his Sword of Extinction with his left hand and gripped onto his Halberd of the Divine Warrior with his right hand. The two swords instantly broke free of the thunders!

“This person has a unique use of techniques. I cannot fight him from a distance.”

After making that decision, Ling Xian called out to his Winged Blitz and appeared right before Fa Wu Liang. His Halberd swept!

Bang!

Similar to a mountain slamming down, the heavy attack sank in and destroyed everything during its journey.

Against this attack, the Ancestor of Technique didn’t even shiver. He smiled, “You think just because you’re in a closer range, I cannot use any techniques against you?”

Then, he displayed a ninth realm technique of the earth element plus two small other techniques. Then, the three different ninth realm techniques combined into a powerful one.

HOMMMM!

After a loud clash, the Ancestor of Technique remained unharmed and Ling Xian was shocked back three steps.

This made him very curious as he could not understand why the combination of a few tricks could turn out so terrifying. How could he know the man standing before him was the Ancestor of Technique!

With techniques, this man had reached a height that shocked everyone’s core. Plus, as an immortal, he was enlightened with the laws of the world, which allowed him to have the mysterious power of turning everything mediocre into greatness!

Even if they were low leveled tricks, when used by him, they can shine brighter than insanely strong techniques!

Similar to just then, everything he used was of the ninth realm, which in the majority of cultivators’ eyes, were trash. Yet when they were combined by him, they were extremely powerful.

This was why he was the Ancestor of Technique!

From the past until now, very few people can match up to his enlightenment with techniques!

“Not bad. If you were anyone else, they would’ve died in that sea of fire. I didn’t think you would be able to endure until now. Sadly, this is just the beginning.”

The Ancestor of Technique grinned. He then called out to a technique that was formulated by harsh water and cold wind. Combining them, the two elements transformed into an ice spear that pierced through space.

“I cannot believe that such weak techniques can turn into such powerful ones.” Ling Xian exclaimed, his gaze turned serious.

No matter what, he wouldn’t let himself fail. No matter how powerful his opponent was, he had to put up a fight.

HOMMMM!

An infinite amount of heavenly light shot through the cloud and Ling Xian’s energy flared up like a flame. Then, an ancient zither appeared before his chest, and he began to plan the earth-shattering heavenly song!

The Crouching Dragon!

Bling!

A terrifying power crushed the ice spear and headed towards the Ancestor of Technique.

“The sixth transformative quality of the Eyes of Execution has already been awakened? How rare.” The Ancestor of Technique complimented and his expression turned serious. If he uses all his power, he can easily kill Ling Xian within seconds. But he was subjecting himself to the limit of the advanced stage of the completion level.

It was a level Ling Xian was considered to be undefeatable in!

Though he was the almighty Ancestor of Technique, against someone with the same cultivation as him, he didn’t dare to be reckless. Especially now that Ling Xian had used the Song of the Crouching Dragon, he had to focus.

“Shapeless wind, faceless water, converge and create a wave!”

The Ancestor of Technique summoned crazy wind with his left hand and asked for gentle water with his right, then, a wide ocean materialized. Immediately, he once again combined the two techniques. Waves of sword spiritual energy combined with the ocean and created rushing gushes of water that were aiming for destruction!

HOMMMM!

Ling Xian played his zither in a furious speed as his white robe danced in the wind. Every single note played by the zither greeted the crazy ocean!

One had to admit that he was truly powerful. Against the technique the Ancestor of Technique innovated, he remained collected and unflustered.

This shocked the crowd. Especially the recently awakened Duan Shan He was looking particularly surprised.

You should know, he was the Ancestor of Technique that was famous throughout history! He was impossible to predict and difficult to defend against. Amongst these immortals, only the Untainted could be of a match!

Yet here, Ling Xian was not at all at a disadvantage and was facing it in a relaxing manner. How could they not be surprised?

Though Ling Xian was not at an advantage, it was because he was up against the Ancestor of Technique. To be at a stalemate was a glorious achievement!

“You are very good.”

Looking at the calm young man, Fa Wu Liang’s eyes were full of praises. He smiled, “If you can remain standing after my final attack, then you pass my test.”

Then, he clasped his hands together. Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder, all seven elements of techniques appeared. They wrestled against each other and combined into a terrifying amount of energy that changed the color of the sky and shocked the crowd!

Then, the Ancestor of Technique unleashed an utterly destructive attack against Ling Xian!
