Chapter 117 99, whose Divine Skills upper and lower parts are not connected?



"Friend Tan possesses remarkable Divine Skills, but sneaking an attack in such a stealthy and sly manner is certainly not the act of a gentleman," Lord Peach said, seeing Emperor Yi die so cleanly, not even his life-saving treasures had a chance to be effective. His gaze towards Tan Shuchang turned icy in an instant.

However, just as Tan Shuchang had mentioned, underneath the Immortal Sect, the Zi Xuan Dynasty could indeed have anyone replace the role of Emperor. Hence, Emperor Yi's death did not overly concern Lord Peach; his only worry was how to ensure that those from the Immortal Sect would allow him to continue staying by the side of the new Emperor.

After all, with Emperor Yi's death, to uphold the value of the Xuan Grand Seal, members from the Immortal Sect would need to come out of seclusion, including those from the most reclusive and top-tier sects like the Supreme Clear Sect.

And what Lord Peach feared the most was precisely this Supreme Clear Sect.

Even though he could at any moment demonstrate the strength of one who had attained certification, when faced with the "Supreme Clear Lotus Sutra" from the Supreme Clear Sect, he only had the fate of defeat awaiting him.

"Friend Lord Peach's words seem misguided. I didn't sneak attack; it's just that you failed to stop me," Tan Shuchang said calmly. The first time he unleashed seventeen strands of the Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi, and the second time was the same, with seventeen strands. The only difference was that within them, one took precedence despite being released later.

So, it wasn't a sneak attack; it was merely Lord Peach underperforming.

The underlying meaning of Tan Shuchang's words was clear to Lord Peach, and no man could tolerate being told he was inadequate. Thus, Lord Peach took the initiative to attack first this time.

After killing Emperor Yi, Tan Shuchang's numerous strands of Bloody Sword Qi shot towards every corner of the imperial palace.

He said he was going to kill Emperor Yi's entire family, so he was going to kill Emperor Yi's entire family.

Tan Shuchang has always been someone who kept his promises, and this was the only vow he had made in the Jiawu Realm.

"You dare!"

Anger erupted in Lord Peach's heart, and he immediately took action without hesitation, triggering the Corpse Furnace Formation. The ground inside the imperial city seemed to turn to quicksand, softening in an instant, and from that softened ground emerged numerous dried corpses.

These corpses still faintly showed their appearances from when they were alive, looking exceedingly ferocious—a sign of the extreme suffering that twisted them so grotesquely.

Despite such commotion within the inner city of the imperial palace, only a few people managed to escape.

For, distorted peach trees, snaking upwards like serpents, burst forth from the ground, their flourishing blossoms engulfing the consciousness of these people.

Corpse Peach Flowers!

Humans turned into corpses, corpses took the place of humans.

The next second, those dried corpses crawled out from the ground, each cloaked in black miasma, exuding intense resentment as they lunged at Tan Shuchang.

Some of the dried corpses also intercepted the Bloody Sword Qi.

Confronted with these corpses, Tan Shuchang actively dissipated the seventeen strands of Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi.

He sensed something off about these corpses. While they appeared and acted like fierce spirits, the special aspect within his body remained untouched.

"Why does Friend Tan refrain from continuing the attack?" Lord Peach asked with a smile.

"Friend Lord Peach possesses remarkable Divine Skills, but I wonder how you will explain yourself when all the Immortal Sects arrive?" Although Tan Shuchang didn't know the reason, he couldn't lose the momentum in their argument. He pretends to be profound, his demeanor relaxed, with a slight smile still on his lips.

"You needn't worry about that, Friend Tan," Lord Peach responded, some irritation arising within him at Tan Someone's rather pointed questioning. "With all the concern Friend Tan has, perhaps consider how to break through this. Otherwise, the day Friend Tan steps into the Immortal Realm will be the day of your demise!"

Entering the Immortal Realm requires certification, which is naturally not something that can be achieved by simply consuming a pill or shouting, "Break through for me!" The breakthrough to that level was impossible.

Certification required not only deep understanding of oneself but also an appeal to the will of heaven.

"Perhaps Friend Tan doesn't know, but stealing someone's power also incurs their causality. And this Corpse Furnace Formation of mine is derived from that principle." In his triumph, Lord Peach couldn't help but say a few more words.

After all, the Corpse Furnace Formation and the Corpse Peach Flowers were created by him after his return from a brush with death.

It can swap the living and dead within the formation, and anyone who kills the dried corpses snared within will be entwined with calamitous energy. Once they appeal to the will of heaven, that energy will turn into a heavenly calamity!

Then, even if one wishes for death, it would be difficult to come by!

"Steal someone's power?"

Tan Shuchang couldn't help feeling puzzled. Why should he know about this? Regardless, aiming to broaden his horizons, Tan Shuchang nodded curtly to Lord Peach, in a gesture of thanks, before adding, "Friend Lord Peach's exquisite Divine Skill is beyond my grasp, but I happen to possess a Divine Skill that could just break it."

As his words fell, the air around them grew heavier with the scent of blood, hinting at spreading throughout the entirety of Jingzhou. From the sky, blood-red lights faint with golden tinges fell down, enshrouding the entire imperial city, as if constructing a bloody barrier.

"I have seen the tumultuous mortal world, the rise and fall of dynasties, the suffering of the common people. I've witnessed countless individuals who have never enjoyed anything in their lives being inexplicably tied to responsibilities.

Those who benefit from logging are the wealthy landowners and government officials, but the responsibility for planting and protecting trees falls on the commoners. During years of drought, local authorities ask the people to endure hunger and thirst, while their offices remain stocked with ample drinks and abundant food," he said.

"I lament deeply and am powerless to change this, so I could only create a new Divine Skill — the 'Supreme Clear Lotus Sutra'.

With these words, Tan Shuchang stretched out his arms toward the bloody light.
