Chapter 80: The Heaven-Slashing Technique with Increased Attack Distance
"The average talent of humanity is so low, even if their population exceeds hundreds of millions, it stands to reason that such a remarkably gifted genius could not possibly emerge!"
The Leader of the Angelic Beings simply couldn’t understand.
How could a human create their own Cultivation Method and elevate it within less than two years to the level where they could even control the power of the laws?
With no previous experience to refer to, even he, the most gifted Leader of the Angelic Beings, admitted he could not accomplish such a feat.
Moreover, it did not seem like a good time to ponder this issue.
No matter how humanity could produce such an astonishing genius, the fact remained.
What mattered now was how the Angelic Beings should respond.
"Could it be that we truly need to follow Burton’s suggestion, reaching out to those races that hold grudges against humanity to form a coalition to invade the galaxy?"
His brow furrowed.
In the end, he shook his head.
The cost of such an action would be too great.
Those races with a grudge against humanity would inevitably become wary of that human genius.
But for a coalition to occur, unless one possessed absolute power, the one who initiated it would have to concede the largest benefits.
"Perhaps it should be left at that. This human genius’s talent for creating skills is about to reach its limit; he cannot possibly create anything earth-shatteringly unusual."
"The average talent of humanity is also extremely low; only when those human geniuses gather together can they form a certain level of threat. However, this threat does not warrant the Angelic Beings incurring great costs to mobilize other races to form a coalition against humanity."
After careful consideration, the Leader of the Angelic Beings ultimately gave up on the idea of launching a coalition.
While Yi Chen’s terrifying ability to create skills posed a threat that even he felt, he still believed that a single genius alone could not easily turn the tide for a race.
Yi Chen’s sudden emergence would at most only prompt humanity’s great ship to begin changing direction.
But whether it could successfully navigate and move forward still depended on generations of geniuses propelling it together.
Yi Chen’s existence merely allowed the human ship to change its course and explore new pathways ahead.
With his creative talent nearing its limit, he naturally could not guide or forge new ways for humanity going forward.
Moreover, the average talent of humanity was far too low.
Even if they pinpointed a new direction for development, without millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years of accumulation, it would be impossible for the racial talent to experience rapid evolution and breakthroughs.
In a few hundred million years, when humanity truly becomes a threat to surrounding races due to their formidable individual strength and technological power, the Angelic Beings would not need to initiate anything; a coalition would form naturally.
"Notify Burton, and have him figure out a way to eliminate this human genius as soon as possible, even if it means doing away with all the undercover agents cultivated within humanity."
"At the same time, have him secretly instruct the undercover agents in various races to investigate the attitudes of their higher-ups towards humanity. If possible, the undercover agents should try to propagate the threat posed by humanity within their own races."
After a moment of contemplation, the Leader of the Angelic Beings finally made his decision.
"Understood!"
The Silver-Winged Angelic Being Guard bowed in acceptance of the order.
……
Exile Planet.
The Eastern Army and over five thousand tribe members from the Yunxia Tribe left the large forest and marched grandly towards the Flame Mountain range.
Yi Chen sat cross-legged on the back of a level 6 green barbarian bull, focusing intently on his cultivation.
This green barbarian bull was massive, its limbs as thick as stone pillars.
Moreover, its hooves could produce a suction force, allowing it to traverse even the steepest terrain as if it were walking on flat ground.
With its gentle temperament, many green barbarian bulls were tamed by the four armies of the Flame Mountain Tribe for transportation.
Thanks to these green barbarian bulls, despite the presence of many elderly, weak, and women in the large group from the Yunxia Tribe, their speed was not slow.
Of course, they weren’t exactly fast either.
If the green barbarian bull ran at full speed, it would still produce a significant bumping sensation.
…
One day later.
Adding to the previous intermittent accumulation, Yi Chen successfully broke through to the first level of Spirit Law.
His spirit power became increasingly refined and robust.
He lifted his gaze to scan his surroundings.
The team had now entered the Flame Mountain range.
Leaping down, he unleashed the Cloud Treading Technique at full speed.
In an instant, he moved like a bolt of lightning, quickly weaving through a chaotic pile of stones while his tribe members gasped in amazement.
Then, with another leap upward, he soared into the sky.
Without wings, he flew through the air.
At times accelerating, at times swiftly changing direction, he moved as nimbly as a flying bird.
His speed was incredibly swift, rivaling that of the Cloud Treading Technique.
Moments later, he dove toward a massive stone.
When he was still nearly twenty meters away from the stone, he suddenly swung his sword and struck.
A wave of Sword Energy, moving at such speed that it was almost impossible to see the sword’s shadow, slashed against the stone.
Bang!
In the face of the Sword Energy, the massive stone was instantly split into two.
The edges were smooth and even.
Yi Chen raised an eyebrow; as expected, with his realm increasing, the power of all his skills also received a significant boost.
Especially the Heaven-Slashing Technique, which grew tremendously stronger.
In terms of power, it might have increased by about ten percent.
However, its range had doubled.
During the Spirit Release stage, each increase in a small realm allowed the range of the Heaven-Slashing Technique’s Sword Energy to extend by about one meter.
After breaking through to the Spirit Law stage, his Sword Energy’s limit had reached ten meters.
Now, with his breakthrough to the second level of Spirit Law, his Sword Energy distance had leaped to twenty meters, doubling the distance from when he was at the first level of Spirit Law.
…
“This, this Sword Energy distance, according to the scanner, how did it reach twenty meters?”
Soon, the viewers in front of the screen discovered something unusual.
“Isn’t the distance of the Sword Energy supposed to increase by one meter for each small realm?”
“Logically, since Yi Chen has broken through to the second level of Spirit Law, his Sword Energy should increase from ten meters to eleven meters!”
“Could it be that after reaching the Spirit Law stage, each increase in a small realm allows the Sword Energy distance to increase by ten meters instead?”
Everyone was taken aback by this thought.
“If that’s the case, after reaching the ninth level of Spirit Law, the Sword Energy distance could reach ninety meters!”
“What if, upon breaking through to an even higher realm, each increase in a small level could add a hundred meters to the Sword Energy distance?”
“Wow, doesn’t that mean the Heaven-Slashing Technique not only has great melee power but can also serve as an ultra-long-range attack, with equally staggering power?”
“Oh my goodness, when we return, Yi Chen must live up to expectations and share all his skills with us.”
“Calm down, everyone, calm down, don’t get too excited. We must hold ourselves together. Only by staying composed will Yi Chen not act unpredictably when he returns, and we won’t have our hopes dashed for nothing.”
No one expected that while everyone eagerly awaited Yi Chen’s return to the Flame Mountain Tribe, the breakthrough to the second level of Spirit Law would bring everyone a huge surprise.
