Battle Through the Heavens: Marry Cao Ying, Reward is Devouring Ancestral Symbol

Self-created fighting technique, Imprisoning Heaven HandAfter his Breakthrough to a Four-Star Dou Zong, Shen Wen did not rush to continue consuming Medicinal Pills.

His newly attained Realm required time to stabilize, and his Dou Qi needed further polishing and refinement before he could unleash his full strength.

Moreover, the cost of refining high-grade Medicinal Pills was substantial; even for him, it was necessary to consider the continuous acquisition of resources.

”Resources...”

Shen Wen sat cross-legged in a quiet spot behind the mountain, his thoughts turning.

Medicinal Pills were undoubtedly the best bargaining chips for exchanging resources.

He thought of Mo Tianxing from the Black Emperor Sect. This man had a deep Foundation in the Black-Corner Region and extensive channels, making him the perfect partner.

”With my speed of refining, if managed properly, it would not be difficult to exchange Medicinal Pills for resources worth twenty or thirty times their value.”

With his plan clear, Shen Wen immediately sent a message, inviting Mo Tianxing to come to Jia Nan Academy for a meeting.

After handling this matter, he turned his attention to his newly acquired ability.

Focusing his mind, a vast gray aura seemed to quietly diffuse deep within his eyes, and a subtle fluctuation that devoured vitality and returned everything to extinction spread out.

Desolate Demon Eye.

This pupil technique needed to complement the Great Desolation Scripture.

Shen Wen made a slight attempt, not using his full power, merely guiding a trace of Qi to sweep across a forest in the distance.

In an instant.

Wherever his gaze landed, the lush forest lost its color at a speed visible to the naked eye; leaves withered, trunks dried up, all within a few breaths.

A vibrant area turned into a dead, gray-white wasteland, as if all its years and vitality had been drained away by an invisible hand.

”The power is truly tyrannical, and what’s even more rare is...” Shen Wen withdrew his pupil power, a flash of thought crossing his eyes.

He tried to integrate a wisp of the scorching true intent from the Flame Ancestral Symbol into his previous gaze.

The gray, withered land did not reignite; instead, a more bizarre, dark-colored ”Flame” rose up.

It silently eroded the remaining withered matter, completely turning it into nothingness, leaving not even much dust behind.

”It really can be fused.”

Shen Wen realized in his heart.

The power of the ancestral talisman might not only serve as an independent, powerful means but could also become the core ”amplifier” for other Dou Techniques and Divine Abilities, stimulating more diverse changes and greater power.

This reminded him of the ”Great Desolation Heaven Imprisoning Hand” he had roughly created before.

That was originally an attempt to fuse the Concept of extinction from the Great Desolation Scripture with the tearing power of the Azure Dragon Heaven-Tearing Hand.

Now, with new insights and more power he could call upon, it seemed he could take it a step further.

Shen Wen calmed his heart, his consciousness sinking into the deep deduction and construction of power.

The extinction and devouring of the Great Desolation Scripture, the ending and decay of the Great Extinction Finger, the tearing grandeur of the Azure Dragon Heaven-Tearing Hand, and the solidification and control of the space ancestral talisman...

All four were powerful Profound Truths that tended towards ”ending,” ”destruction,” and ”control.”

Under the precise control of his vast, sea-like Heavenly Realm Soul power, they began to undergo complex and mysterious interweaving and Fusion.

This was a process that extremely tested his control and Comprehension Ability, like building the most precise pavilion in the center of a storm.

Shen Wen focused all his attention, guiding these forces with different attributes that were nonetheless faintly resonating, along a self-created, unprecedented trajectory, slowly and firmly gathering and shaping them.

Time passed quietly in his focus.

At a certain moment, Shen Wen suddenly opened his eyes, a scene of Chaos seemingly flashing and disappearing in the depths of his eyes.

He raised his right arm, opened his five fingers, and slowly made a ”grasping” motion towards the Void Realm in front of him.

The space in front of his palm seemed to be fiercely gripped by an invisible giant hand, twisting and collapsing sharply inward, eventually forming a blurred region of Chaos, constantly churning with gray Qi and silver light.

From within the region, a low Dragon roar and the faint sound of space shattering could be heard.

A terrifying atmosphere that made one’s Soul tremble, a mixture of absolute desolation, ultimate extinction, spatial solidification, and tearing destruction, spread out like an invisible tide.

”Let this move be called ’Heaven Imprisoning Hand’.”

This name flashed through Shen Wen’s mind; it did not just contain the power of the Great Desolation Scripture.

Naturally, it was no longer called the Great Desolation Heaven Imprisoning Hand.

Shen Wen’s mind stirred slightly.

Immediately after, an invisible, vast, and obscure fluctuation rippled out with a speed and range far exceeding Shen Wen’s expectations!

Above Jia Nan Academy, the midday sun was bright. Countless teachers and students were either Cultivating, teaching, or resting.

Suddenly, the world darkened!

It was not dark clouds blocking the sun, but a more bizarre dimness, as if the light itself was being suppressed or devoured by some force.

Everyone looked up in horror, seeing the sky above the academy.

A phantom of a colossal giant hand that almost covered half the sky, its color a hard-to-define Chaos, its five fingers twisted and wrapped in gray air currents and fine silver cracks, appeared majestically!

It emerged majestically without any warning!

The giant hand phantom hovered quietly, not actually pressing down.

But merely by existing there, the pressure it naturally radiated had already made the space within the entire academy seem to solidify, and the air became heavy and viscous.

That vast, ancient, and terrifying aura, containing the meaning of the end of all things and spatial freezing,

descended like a tangible force, causing everyone who felt it, regardless of their cultivation level,

to be shaken to their cores, an indescribable chill and sense of insignificance welling up from the depths of their Souls.

Most students below the Dou Ling level instantly turned pale, their legs went weak, and they collapsed to the ground.

Even Dou Wang students and Dou Huang-level instructors and Elders

felt their internal Dou Qi circulating sluggishly, cold sweat seeping from their foreheads, as they looked at the sky in horror, at a loss for what to do.

In the Elder Pavilion, Grand Elder Su Qian, who was discussing matters with Qian Mu and Bai Lie, had his expression change drastically the moment the giant hand phantom appeared.

His figure flashed and appeared on the square outside the pavilion, looking up at the chaotic giant hand covering the firmament.

His Five-Star Dou Zong cultivation allowed him to perceive more clearly than others the terrifying power contained within, which could easily crush mountains.

Cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

”E-Elder Shen?!” Su Qian’s voice carried incredulous shock and a trace of trembling, as he subconsciously blurted out, ”What... what kind of commotion is this again?!”

He instantly appeared behind the academy mountain and saw Shen Wen standing in the sky.

Shen Wen noticed Su Qian’s aura.

”It is nothing, just testing a newly created Dou Technique.” After Shen Wen finished speaking, he casually dispersed it.

Su Qian recalled the power of the giant hand just now and swallowed his saliva. Creating a Dou Technique?

”This Dou Technique has at least the power of a low-grade, or even a Heaven Rank Dou Skill, right?”

”This power certainly doesn’t reach a true Heaven Rank Dou Skill.” Shen Wen waved his hand, although he had fused the Great Extinction Finger, which was a Heaven Rank Dou Skill.

But the power erupted now still could not compare to the fully unleashed Great Extinction Finger.

However, it was the most suitable for Shen Wen himself.

Just like Xiao Yan’s Buddha’s Fury Fire Lotus.

It allowed Shen Wen to unleash his full power. Su Qian knew it was Shen Wen creating a Dou Technique, so he disappeared to go soothe the students.
