The technique
Speaking of this Forbidden Immortal Blood Lightning Art, it all went back to when Chu Feng had first stepped into the Grand Astral Upper Realm. He had stumbled into the Yuanhai Divine Mountain by chance, and just like that — practically picked it up off the ground — this forbidden immortal martial technique had fallen into his hands.
But that casual little find had unexpectedly yielded a martial technique of staggering power.
Back then, when Chu Feng had first entered the Grand Astral Lower Realm, he had been nothing more than a modest True Immortal.
Now, Chu Feng had already reached the Venerable Realm. His progress could only be described as godlike speed.
Yet despite such a monumental leap in cultivation, this Forbidden Immortal Blood Lightning Art remained the strongest offensive technique Chu Feng could currently wield.
That only made people marvel at how miraculous the Yuanhai Divine Mountain truly was. Even Chu Feng regretted not spending more time exploring it back then.
Otherwise, perhaps he could have found even better treasures.
After all, if he had managed to pick up something as formidable as the Forbidden Immortal Blood Lightning Art without even trying, a thorough search would surely have turned up something even more powerful.
Of course, it wasn't as though Chu Feng had gained nothing else since stepping into the Grand Astral Upper Realm.
For instance, not long ago, the Blood Devouring Demon Venerable had gifted him the secret technique Demon Venerable's Descent within the Void Divine Tree.
And then there was the Nine-Fold Heavenly Thunder Slash — the technique Chu Feng had earned by ascending to the tenth level of the Heavenly Thunder Platform within the
Both were exceedingly powerful techniques. The Nine-Fold Heavenly Thunder Slash in particular — its destructive potential was virtually immeasurable, a bona fide heaven-defying art.
The trouble was, the more heaven-defying a technique, the harder it was to master.
And so, to this day, the Forbidden Immortal Blood Lightning Art remained Chu Feng's most powerful offensive method.
Now, as the Forbidden Immortal Blood Lightning Art surged forth, it did indeed startle the younger generation present.
At the very least, the sheer aura it projected was genuinely terrifying.
"Hahaha…"
But who would have thought — just as all the juniors were frozen with shock by the sky full of blood lightning — a mocking burst of laughter suddenly rang out. It was Nangong Yifan.
People were momentarily puzzled by his sudden outburst of laughter.
But once Nangong Yifan spoke, they suddenly understood.
"I thought you were about to unleash some heaven-defying technique, but all this time it turns out to be nothing but a forbidden immortal martial art."
"Chu Feng, if you wanted to use a forbidden immortal martial technique to contest a fifth-tier Immortal Art, that would be one thing."
"To actually dream that this paltry forbidden immortal martial art could stand up to my ninth-tier Immortal Art, the Dark Ghost Flame? I think you've been backed into a corner with no way out — you've simply got nothing left."
Nangong Yifan looked at Chu Feng with undisguised mockery. He genuinely found Chu Feng's actions laughable.
"What? So that's a forbidden immortal martial technique?"
"With that kind of power, I assumed it was a ninth-tier Immortal Art."
After hearing Nangong Yifan's words, the crowd's reactions shifted accordingly.
As everyone knew, no matter how powerful a forbidden immortal martial technique was, it could at best hold its own against a fifth-tier Immortal Art.
To try to match a ninth-tier Immortal Art with one — that was nothing short of a fool's dream.
"Whether it works or not isn't your call to make — the result will speak for itself," Chu Feng said.
"Fine. Then I'll show you exactly what happens when you underestimate me."
Awooo—
Suddenly, a torrent of black energy erupted from within Nangong Yifan's body.
The black aura surged skyward and began to shift and morph, transforming into an enormous spectral silhouette.
Looking closer, that silhouette was an exact replica of Nangong Yifan himself.
