Eternal Life from the Golden Needle Technique

Chapter 508: Chapter 31: Eruption

’Hm?’

In the unseen Void Heaven, a place invisible to mortals, a magnificent figure seated in the void showed a flicker of surprise.

He was wreathed in a hazy glow, his aura suppressing heaven and earth.

His gaze swept over the young disciples pouring into the Blessed Secret Realm, finally resting on Shen Changchuan.

’Another genius who has touched the limits of the Power of Space while still in the Soul Emergence Realm?’

The magnificent figure murmured to himself, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Unfortunately,

he had only just touched upon it.

This could only be considered an entry-level seed. Whether it could break out of its shell and truly grasp a sliver of the Power of Space in the Soul Emergence Realm remained to be seen.

Of course,

to be able to reach this stage—

whether by luck or some other reason—made the boy a prodigy, one in a million!

’In that case, should I take him as my disciple?’

The thought flashed through the mind of the figure whose magnificent aura suppressed the very heavens.

But soon,

he shook his head.

’Forget it.’

’Judging from the situation just now, that boy must be a disciple of Master Wandering Dragon.’

’It’s not easy for their lineage to produce a genius. If he develops well in the future and carries on their mantle, it would be a good thing.’

’If he can’t make it,’

’and his lineage collapses,’

’it won’t be too late to consider taking him as my disciple then.’

In an instant,

all these thoughts flashed through the magnificent figure’s mind.

He understood.

He had made his decision.

Although Shen Changchuan’s aptitude was impressive,

to a Master Profound Pill like him, who had guarded the Immortal Sect for nearly a thousand years and achieved Transcendence over worldly matters,

he could only be considered among the top tier.

His aptitude was far from the realm of an unparalleled genius like the Immortal Sect Daoist—someone you would feel compelled to take as a disciple at first sight.

In the void,

the being exuding a magnificent aura closed his eyes.

He resumed his meditation and Cultivation.

Wisps of the Great Dao vibrated in the nothingness.

...

Shen Changchuan was completely unaware of the thoughts of the great figure in the void above.

At this moment, after a dizzying, uncontrolled spin,

he, along with the others, tumbled like dumplings onto a mountain peak.

Shen Changchuan barely managed to steady himself.

Looking up, he saw that the surrounding world was shrouded in a dense white mist.

It was a sign of Spiritual Qi so abundant that it was nearly condensing into liquid!

The thick Spiritual Mist obscured his vision, preventing him from seeing his distant surroundings.

However, through his faint perception of the Power of Space, he sensed that this Spirit Transformation Pool seemed to exist in a separate space—or rather, within an independent dimension.

The surroundings were also permeated by the power of an Array so potent it made the void itself tremble!

However, these details were not his main focus.

Shen Changchuan had no intention of probing too deeply into the mysteries of the Spirit Transformation Pool’s formation. Instead, he quickly turned his gaze forward.

There,

a huge pool paved with Cyan Jade came into view.

The pool was as large as ten football fields and completely dry inside, with neither liquid nor dust.

Scattered within the dry pool were twenty-five cylindrical, Cyan Jade platforms.

These platforms varied in size; the closer they were to the center of the pool, the larger they became. On each platform sat a White Jade Meditation Mat.

Seeing the scene before him,

Shen Changchuan had a moment of realization.

’My master said,’

’that the effects of Cultivation in the Spirit Transformation Pool vary depending on your position.’

’Those platforms,’

’must be the spots for Cultivation,’

’and the different-sized Cyan Jade platforms must represent different Cultivation effects.’

”Everyone, your position depends on your own abilities!”

someone shouted.

Immediately, someone leaped up, transforming into a streak of light and shooting toward a platform and mat they had their eye on!

In an instant,

the air around Shen Changchuan howled as, one after another, the people on the surrounding peaks leaped down to fight for a spot on the platforms.

Shen Changchuan thought for a moment,

then his body followed his will. With a WHOOSH, his figure vanished as he activated his Tier Two Perfection Body Technique, speeding toward the three platforms in the very center.

His Perfection Level Tier Two Body Technique was so incredibly swift

that even though Shen Changchuan had started a little late,

he still arrived first despite his delayed start,

snatching a spot on one of the three largest platforms in the very center before anyone else.

”Huh?! So fast!”

”That’s Shen Changchuan? I’ve heard a little about him, that his strength and achievements are impressive. I thought it was just some braggart from the sticks, but it looks like he really has some skill!”

”Yeah, that speed is probably top-tier among us!”

”This is going to be good! Xiao Chenyang didn’t seem to get along with him earlier. I bet there’s going to be a big fight!”

After quickly snatching their own positions, the surrounding Immortal Sect disciples

all started whispering as they looked at the occupants of the three largest platforms in the center.

At this moment,

some people who had their eyes on the same spot were already in standoffs or even fighting, the powerful bursts of force from their clashes sweeping in all directions.

However, it seemed that due to the suppression of this Blessed Land Space—or perhaps the dense Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and the terrifying Array enveloping the area—

the destructive power of their clashes was suppressed to a relatively low level.

But still,

no one present seemed to care much about this.

Instead, all eyes were fixed on the center of the Spirit Transformation Pool.

At this moment,

the three largest Cyan Jade platforms in the center of the Spirit Transformation Pool had been occupied by three people, Shen Changchuan being one of them.

If it were just that, it wouldn’t be worth much attention; at most, it would just show people that Shen Changchuan had impressive strength and incredible speed.

But,

the problem was—Xiao Chenyang hadn’t moved!

He remained on a high peak nearby. The surrounding Immortal Sect disciples had long since entered the Spirit Transformation Pool to occupy their positions. He alone stood with his arms crossed, staring at Shen Changchuan from across the distance!

”It’s starting! It’s about to start!”

Recalling the verbal clash between the two outside, the eyes of the surrounding crowd grew excited.

”This spot. Are you going to give it up willingly, or do I have to beat you half to death and throw you out?”

Xiao Chenyang’s figure flickered. He rose into the air, hovering there and looking down on Shen Changchuan.

”If you want to fight, then fight. Stop wasting my damn time with all this talk!”

Shen Changchuan’s face was calm, his expression unchanging in the face of Xiao Chenyang’s provocation.

”Very good! I hope you can maintain that arrogance in a moment!”

Xiao Chenyang sneered, and then—

BOOM!!!

Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Chenyang attacked!

A monumental aura erupted, shaking the void as rolling heatwaves swept out in all directions like a tide!

The aura of the Soul Emergence Eighth Layer Peak erupted without reservation. Searing heat instantly filled the air, as if the very atmosphere had been set ablaze!
