Gong Li moved like a clear breeze, his figure blurred, incredibly swift, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Zhang Chen. The long knife transformed from Bifeng in his hand vibrated at high speed as it slashed towards Zhang Chen’s head, intending to split him in two.
"Kid, die for me!" Gong Li’s face twisted with ferocity, his eyes filled with murderous intent. The long knife in his hand sliced through the air without any sound or resistance.
Seeing the long knife approaching, about to slice him, Zhang Chen’s face appeared panicked as if his spirit was captivated by the blade light. In reality, one of Zhang Chen’s hands was behind him, with a jade brick floating in his palm, into which he infused his magical power.
The long knife cut into Zhang Chen’s body, and the smile on Gong Li’s face disappeared. His eyes were full of horror as he looked at Zhang Chen, filled with disbelief.
At this moment, Gong Li was stunned, his eyes blankly staring at the long knife of Bifeng in his hand, not understanding why his long knife of Bifeng had suddenly vanished.
Gong Li was stunned, but Zhang Chen was not. The jade brick in his hand suddenly flew out, and with Zhang Chen’s magical power flowing, the divine power in the jade brick revived. The jade brick, wrapped in divine power, smashed down on Gong Li’s forehead.
Although the jade brick was only palm-sized, it grew larger in the wind, transforming into the size of a small box truck, flowing with vast divine power. Accompanying Zhang Chen’s sacrificial refining, it could already unleash power and possess a weight of twelve thousand jin.
Though the divine power was only one-thirty-third of the complete divine power, it still had the ability to shatter all techniques. As Gong Li recovered and tried to mobilize his superpower, his bloodline superpower failed under the divine power.
He frantically mobilized divine power, forming a light shield around him for protection.
However, facing the jade brick, the divine light formed by the jade brick was like thin paper, being directly pierced and shattered, and then Gong Li’s body turned into a blood mist under the suppressing power of the jade brick.
Divine power remained restrained under the divine power.
"You whelp! How dare you!"
Gong Li’s body exploded, but where his body had exploded there was divine power flowing, which constantly twisted and gathered, trying to form a human shape.
The earlier strike of Zhang Chen’s Pangu Stone not only shattered the opponent’s body but also ground the divine body hidden within that body into powder. However, the divine body was composed of divine power, possessing incredible force, and now it was attempting to regenerate.
After the strike from the Pangu Stone, it shrank back to palm size, and landed back in Zhang Chen’s hand.
"A divine body, huh?" Zhang Chen saw the body where divine power was flowing, trying to recover. In the next moment, the Pangu Stone in his hand flew out again, smashing onto the divine body.
"Boom~"
The opponent’s divine body exploded once more, immediately splitting into pieces, the corpse falling to the ground.
This time, there was no counterattack; the opponent was done for.
"Kid, you really are cunning and vicious. Even faced with a Yin Spirit Daoist, Gong Li’s combat power wouldn’t pale in comparison, yet he died so humiliatingly in your hands. It’s truly the gravest of injustice," the Great Freedom Celestial Demon said in astonishment nearby. "The opponent was so versed in Divine Dao Cultivation, unable to unleash it fully, and got directly smashed by you. It’s too pitiful indeed."
Zhang Chen glanced at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, not bothering to respond, and instead, his eyes turned to the corpse on the ground, his eyes lighting up: "I can harvest points now!"
Zhang Chen took out a jade bottle, collected some blood, and then started to assimilate and devour Gong Li’s divine body. Before long, Gong Li’s body had been devoured completely, and Zhang Chen unexpectedly gained five million experience points.
"Goodness, seems like I found a new way of thinking, a method to obtain points. In the future, when all divine spirits are ordained under the heavens, if I secretly cause some mischief, won’t all divine spirits become my nourishment?" Zhang Chen mused to himself.
With five million experience points, Zhang Chen didn’t plan to keep much but chose to upgrade skills.
Zhang Chen’s eyes turned to his Golden Finger Interface, looking for skills that could be upgraded with five million experience points:
[Skill 2 (Tier 3): Dragon Qi (0/2000000)]
[Skill 4 (Tier 5): Water Control Technique (0/5000000)]
[Skill 6 (Extreme): Forget Form (0/400000)]
[Skill 8 (Tier 5): Body-Stabilizing Rune (0/1600000)]
[Skill 9 (Tier 5): Sealing Rune (2000000)]
[Skill 10 (Tier 4): Penetration Transformation*Piercing Stone (0/400000)]
[Skill 11 (Tier 6): Invisibility Rune (0/1600000)]
With five million points, there are seven skills that can be upgraded. Zhang Chen scanned through them and first passed on the Dragon Qi skill because its enhancement to his combat power wasn’t substantial enough.
Next, he looked at the Water Control Technique. Just right for five million experience points, it could be upgraded. However, in the Northern Land where the dragon transforms into a walking flood dragon, lacking significant water bodies, this skill rendered itself useless.
In the end, Zhang Chen’s eyes landed on Skill 9, Penetration Transformation and Invisibility Rune, Sealing Rune, Fixed Rune.
"The Invisibility Rune is more useful to me, and it’s already Tier Six. If it can be upgraded to Tier Seven, at that time, even Tier Seven experts won’t be able to identify my traces, making movement much more convenient. If one day the Invisibility Technique is upgraded to Tier Nine, then the Yang God would be unable to see, and where in the world could I not go?" After pondering for a moment, Zhang Chen decided to allocate his skill points to the Invisibility Rune.
As Zhang Chen’s heart moved with thought, five million points instantly evaporated, and then the Invisibility Rune interface rapidly changed:
[Skill 11 (Tier 7): Invisibility Rune (0/16000000)]
Zhang Chen’s gaze fell on the points after the Invisibility Rune. Upon reaching Tier Seven, its cost increased tenfold, becoming sixteen million, causing Zhang Chen’s heart to skip: "This is also a massive point-consuming beast, I still need to find a stable source of points."
At this moment, three million four hundred thousand points remained, and Zhang Chen didn’t plan to keep them and instead allocated them to the Body-Stabilizing Rune. To him, the Body-Stabilizing Rune could play an extremely crucial role at a critical moment.
