Swallowing the Stars: I Have No Cheat Codes

Chapter 98 Ultimate Secret Technique

Chapter 98 Ultimate Secret Technique

Eight eras later...

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Terrifying energy raged across the battle space, highlighting how fragile the universe was in the face of such energy.

"It's no use, you're still a little short."

The shadowy figure scoffed, waving its illusory hand, and a black phantom hurtled straight toward Lu Xing.

This is the last opponent arranged for him by the Lord of Purgatory—the Lord of the Star River during the Immortal Era!

The Lord of the Star River, a top-tier fifth-order universe lord of the Northern Frontier Alliance, was naturally an extremely brilliant genius during his immortal period, and the secret techniques he created were the most powerful among the pinnacle secret techniques.

Of course, this doesn't refer to the Star Lord at the peak of his immortality, as he must have created the ultimate secret technique back then.

"No."

Lu Xing shouted, his ancient battle blade surrounded by countless spatial runes.

"I'm not the same person I used to be."

A single slash!

It transformed into a spatial rift with a diameter of millions of kilometers, its power undiminished, sweeping away with countless spatial fragments.

"Heh, still the same old story!"

The shadowy figure manipulated the phantom to collide with it, and the space where the two were located shattered with a deafening roar.

"I admit you're strong, but that's not enough to defeat me," the shadowy figure said calmly.

The two were at best evenly matched. To defeat him, one would need to use an ultimate level secret technique. Destroying that illusion was no easy feat.

"Yeah?"

Lu Xing smiled and slowly raised his right hand.

"Buzz~"

One after another, secret patterns emerged from the space, forming a huge spatial vortex, and the black shadow was at the center of the spatial vortex.

"What's possible!" the shadowy figure exclaimed in astonishment.

"kill"

Hold down with your right hand.

This grasp was like turning on a switch that set off a vortex, and terrifying power began to annihilate the dark figure in the center.

Swallow, strangle, blockade!

The shadowy figure gradually annihilated within the vortex.

"It's done!" Lu Xing was overjoyed.

After eight eras, with the guidance of the Lord of Purgatory, and through the fusion of spatial strangulation and spatial confinement, he created his own ultimate secret technique.

"This move is called Spatial Whirlwind Strike!"

Lu Xing laughed, and at the same time teleported to the Purgatory Temple.

"Teacher," Lu Xing said respectfully.

A figure gradually appeared on the throne high above, a hint of surprise appearing in his calm eyes, "Ultimate secret technique, there aren't many who can achieve this at the Immortal stage."

Even if immortals have an infinite lifespan, this is not something that can be solved simply by time.

"You plan to go to the Ancient Spirit Hall?" the Lord of Purgatory asked.

"Yes." Lu Xing nodded. "The Ancient Spirit Temple will open in about 22 epochs. During this time, I can fully comprehend the ninth level of the Purgatory Body."

Over these eight eras, humanity itself has also comprehended the sixth level of the Purgatory Body, as well as a small portion of the seventh level.

"If I master the ninth level, my divine body alone will be comparable to a mid-level Venerable. With the ultimate secret technique and treasures, I won't be inferior even to a high-level Venerable," Lu Xing continued.

"The ninth level!" the Lord of Purgatory exclaimed in surprise.

If the surprise of Lu Xing creating the ultimate secret technique was one, then the surprise brought by this news was ten.

"Yes," Lu Xing continued, "I'm at least 70% confident that I can comprehend the ninth level."

"Hahahahaha." The Lord of Purgatory's laughter echoed throughout the space. "Very good. With the Frost Condensation Pearl here, even losing this clone is no big deal."

"Strong individuals must experience battle!"

Go!

The next second, Lu Xing returned to his mansion.

"Go and talk to your senior brother." Lu Xing sent him a communication request.

Soon, a virtual image appeared in front of me.

"Junior Brother, have you thought this through?" Venerable Huan Yi said. He hadn't even seen a trace of the Ancient Spirit Crystal in these eight eras; those who obtained it had simply hidden it away.

"Senior brother, I plan to go by myself," Lu Xing said.

"Hahaha, since that's the case, I won't force you. But please keep an eye out for Venerable Gusha's whereabouts, Junior Brother," Venerable Huan Yi said.

"The Ancient Buddha?" Lu Xing was taken aback.

"Yes," Venerable Huan Yi continued, "This guy was hiding a domain treasure, but he escaped due to carelessness. According to information, he has an ancient spirit crystal on him."

"Okay." Lu Xing nodded. "I will inform my senior brother immediately if I hear any news about him."

"Hmm." Venerable Huan Yi closed the communication.

"A treasure of the realm, quite a trump card," Lu Xing murmured.

The Venerable Gusha was merely a high-ranking Venerable. He possessed a supreme weapon on the surface, but this weapon alone was insufficient to allow him to escape from Venerable Huanyi.

The realm's supreme treasures are different; if he is careless, Venerable Huan Yi will definitely be greatly affected.

High Venerable One, you can escape millions of kilometers in an instant.

"Boom!"

A beam of light struck the Peak Palace.

Lu Xing, who was sitting cross-legged in the center, suddenly opened his eyes and manipulated the Peak Palace to appear in the air.

"There it is!" Lu Xing looked at the probe.

Although his detector is already the most advanced, others of the same level can only detect, not block, and the distance is a billion kilometers, far from the alarm range.

"what?"

"This palace...you are the newly ascended Venerable One who killed King Hunshui."

A figure traversed space, a black beast covered in sharp spikes, with countless runes swirling around its black scales.

"It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to you effortlessly," Lu Xing thought to himself with a smile.

This black beast was none other than the Ancient Clan Venerable who had escaped from the clutches of Venerable Huan Yi.

Lu Xing's seclusion place is in a remote part of the Ancient Spirit District, which is extremely rare among this generation of Venerables. Venerable Gu Sha also intends to avoid the limelight here.

"Senior brother, the Ancient Buddha is here..."

A wisp of consciousness connected to the virtual universe, and he sent a message to Venerable Huan Yi.

"Hahaha, junior brother, hold him off for a moment, I'll be right there," Venerable Huan Yi laughed.

"Hold him back?" Lu Xing smiled and shook his head. The Ancient Buddha Venerable had come to him of his own accord, his purpose being to kill him.

Moreover, he recognized the Peak Palace, so how could he easily let Lu Xing leave?

"Hahahaha, hand over the Ancient Spirit Crystal, and I'll let you leave." With a thought, the Ancient Demon Venerable expanded his Treasure Domain.

Since this treasure has been exposed, there is no need for him to hide it anymore. Moreover, the value of the Ancient Spirit Crystal alone is enough to reveal its existence.

"When did Venerable Gusha become so kind!" Lu Xing said calmly. "Isn't your Black Scale Beast clan the most fond of torturing and killing your enemies?"

"It seems you are not a being from the Ruins of Hua Secret Realm. May I ask which faction's Venerable One you belong to?" Venerable Gucha asked.

"You'll find out soon enough." Lu Xing walked out of the Peak Palace.

It was impossible for a high-level Venerable to kill him instantly, and he also wanted to see how far his strength was from that of a high-level Venerable.

"kill!"

With a surge of energy, the Shadowless Blade appeared in his hand, and he transformed into a streak of light as he rushed forward.
