Chapter 180 The Divine Piercing Arrow

During the Qi Condensation stage, spells like the Art of Object Manipulation could be used for combat.

However, after reaching Foundation Establishment, their power became far too weak to be effective against enemies.

At this moment, He Song couldn't enter the Earth Sect to exchange contribution points for cultivation techniques or spells suitable for the Foundation Establishment stage.

Thus, when He Song saw the Blood Escape Technique in the jade slip, a weight lifted from his heart.

With the Blood Escape Technique.

Once he practiced it to the point where he could use it effortlessly without losing its effectiveness.

Even if a Foundation Establishment practitioner attacked him, he could escape using the Blood Escape Technique.

All it cost was a single drop of blood essence.

It would take only a few years to recover.

For He Song, trading a few years to save his life was extremely worthwhile.

Therefore, he no longer needed to worry about being discovered and killed.

Even though he currently had no means to fight other Foundation Establishment practitioners.

But with the Blood Escape Technique.

Ordinary Foundation Establishment practitioners would find it hard to harm him.

When his life was in danger, the Blood Escape Technique could turn the situation around.

One could say that the appearance of the Blood Escape Technique increased He Song's safety by more than one level.

If he couldn't fight.

Could he at least run away?.

With the Blood Escape Technique, He Song didn't need to worry about not being able to escape.

With a hint of joy, He Song put the jade slip containing the Blood Escape Technique back into his storage pouch.

This was a valuable item, and he needed to keep it safe.

After putting the Blood Escape Technique's jade slip into the storage pouch, He Song turned his attention to another jade slip.

This jade slip.

Like the Blood Escape Technique, was also taken from Mi Cang's storage pouch.

He didn't know what it contained.

With some anticipation, He Song picked up the jade slip and extended his divine sense.

The Divine Piercing Arrow.

A divine sense attack technique.

It condensed divine sense into an arrow and shot it out using a special method, causing immense damage to the opponent.

A single strike could, at the very least, cause divine sense shock, dizziness, and a significant drop in combat ability.

In severe cases, it could cause bleeding from all seven orifices, leading to immediate death due to the collapse of divine sense.

Generally, divine sense attacks were used when one's cultivation far surpassed the opponent.

Or, after consuming many pills that enhanced divine sense, making one's divine sense stronger than that of peers at the same level.

Only then could such effects be achieved.

But if the opponent's divine sense was stronger than one's own.

Then the person suffering divine sense shock, dizziness, a significant drop in combat ability, or even bleeding from all seven orifices and immediate death would be oneself.

One could say.

The Divine Piercing Arrow was a double-edged sword.

It could harm others.

But it could also harm oneself.

In the hands of ordinary practitioners, it was a technique specifically used to bully juniors.

A Foundation Establishment practitioner could easily kill Qi Condensation stage cultivators using this technique.

A single strike could cause even a Great Perfection of Qi Condensation cultivator to bleed from all seven orifices and die on the spot.

Moreover, unlike other spells that consumed magical power, divine sense attacks consumed divine sense.

If there was little resistance, the consumption of divine sense was negligible.

In such cases, as long as the opponent was at a lower cultivation level, had not yet developed divine sense, and couldn't retaliate, a Foundation Establishment practitioner who mastered divine sense attacks would become an unstoppable killing machine.

No matter how many Qi Condensation stage cultivators came, as long as one mastered this technique, they could kill them one by one without effort.

Using magical artifacts still required consuming magical power.

But using divine sense attacks against Qi Condensation stage cultivators who hadn't yet developed divine sense consumed almost nothing.

In this way, He Song now possessed overwhelming attack power against Qi Condensation stage cultivators.

"The Divine Piercing Arrow, combined with my stronger-than-average divine sense, is perfectly suited for me."

"In the future, whether for ambushes or escapes, I have another option."

"If ambushing, I can launch a Divine Piercing Arrow beforehand, causing the opponent to suffer divine sense shock, dizziness, and a significant drop in combat ability."

"In severe cases, they could bleed from all seven orifices and die immediately."

"If escaping, I can launch a Divine Piercing Arrow before using the Blood Escape Technique, leaving the opponent unable to chase me."

"Simply perfect!"

After imprinting the cultivation methods and usage of the Divine Piercing Arrow into his memory, a look of admiration flashed across He Song's face.

He secretly decided that mastering the Divine Piercing Arrow was a top priority.

This Divine Piercing Arrow was extremely powerful for He Song.

Whether for ambushes or escapes, it had its uses.

Moreover, if any Qi Condensation stage cultivators dared to challenge him in the future, He Song now had the ability to strike them down mercilessly.

Once the Divine Piercing Arrow was unleashed, no matter how talented or invincible they were at the same level, as long as they were still in the Qi Condensation stage and hadn't developed divine sense, their fate was sealed.

After putting the jade slip containing the Divine Piercing Arrow back into his storage pouch, He Song let out a long sigh.

Over the next four years.

Apart from cultivation, he also needed to study these two techniques.

Only after mastering the Blood Escape Technique and the Divine Piercing Arrow could his safety be maximized.

At the same time.

He Song made a decision in his heart.

Before mastering the Blood Escape Technique and the Divine Piercing Arrow, he absolutely could not leave his cave.

Without appropriate Foundation Establishment techniques, if he encountered other Foundation Establishment practitioners, his fate might not be good.

At that time, he wouldn't be able to escape.

Nor could he fight back.

That would truly be a desperate situation.

"There are still four years."

"If a Golden Core True Person intervenes during these four years, the war between the Earth Sect and the Seven Stars Sect should end quickly."

"If a Golden Core True Person does intervene, returning to the Earth Sect should be possible."

"After all, by the time ten years pass, the war will likely already be over, and I won't be sent to the battlefield."

"In that case, going to the Earth Sect to announce my breakthrough would be risk-free."

"Let's wait.

But before practicing these techniques, I should contact Meng Guan and Wei Fan to see how things are going in Linked Mountain Immortal City."

Just before closing himself off to practice these two Foundation Establishment techniques, after some thought, He Song decided to ask Meng Guan and Wei Fan about the current situation in Linked Mountain Immortal City.

This way, he could judge whether the Golden Core True Persons of the Earth Sect would act within four years.

Thinking of this, He Song's Message Talisman appeared in his hand.

Casually taking out a thin sheet of paper, He Song let magical power flow from his fingertips, intending to write a line of text on the paper.

But suddenly, his body froze.

The aura of magical power was completely different from that of spiritual energy.

If he left traces of magical power on the paper, Wei Fan and Meng Guan would instantly realize that he had reached Foundation Establishment.

Now, having just broken through to Foundation Establishment, He Song had no means to protect himself.

If the two found out about his breakthrough and acted strangely, thereby exposing him.

He might have to visit Linked Mountain Immortal City.

To avoid endangering his life, He Song decisively dispersed the magical power from his fingertips.

Immediately afterward, He Song willed it.

A strand of spiritual energy appeared at his fingertips.

Spiritual energy could be converted into magical power, and magical power could also be converted back into spiritual energy.

After converting the magical power at his fingertips into spiritual energy, He Song casually waved his hand, leaving lines of writing on the paper.

"Dear Daoist friend, Wei Fan arrived at Linked Mountain Immortal City some time ago.

You two should have met by now."

"I am within the Earth Sect and quite concerned about both of you."

"How is the situation in Linked Mountain Immortal City?

Are either of you in any danger?"

"If there's anything I can help with, please don't hesitate to ask."

"Though I am within the Earth Sect, I still want to know the situation in Linked Mountain Immortal City.

I hope you can inform me."

"He Song."

After placing the paper into the Message Talisman, He Song exhaled a strand of spiritual energy.

The paper inside the Message Talisman disappeared instantly, presumably delivered to Meng Guan's Message Talisman.

Seeing this, He Song closed his eyes slightly and began circulating the Earth Scripture, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

It must be said.

Although the Earth Scripture was a Qi Condensation stage technique, it could still be used after reaching Foundation Establishment.

Foundation Establishment practitioners could still use the Earth Scripture to absorb spiritual energy and improve their cultivation.

However, compared to techniques designed for the Foundation Establishment stage, the Earth Scripture's cultivation speed was extremely slow—so slow that no one would continue using it after reaching Foundation Establishment.

It was only because He Song couldn't obtain Foundation Establishment techniques and needed to stay in his cave for several years that he had no choice but to continue using the Earth Scripture for cultivation.

Circulating the Earth Scripture was better than doing nothing.

Rather than sitting idly.

He might as well absorb some spiritual energy.

Cultivation was, after all, accumulated bit by bit.

He Song didn't have to wait long.

After circulating the Earth Scripture and absorbing spiritual energy for a while, the Message Talisman in front of him lit up at this moment.

Seeing this, He Song immediately stopped circulating the Earth Scripture and picked up the Message Talisman from the ground.

Opening it.

He took out the paper inside.

After glancing at it, a look of surprise flashed across He Song's eyes.

"Thank you for your concern, Daoist friend.

Wei Fan has been in Linked Mountain Immortal City for a month.

There were no dangers on the journey here."

"I have already hosted a welcoming feast for Wei Fan."

"However, Wei Fan keeps asking me when we will launch an attack."

"Unfortunately, the timing of the attack is decided by the True Lord, so I could only evade the question."

"Does Daoist friend know why Wei Fan is so eager to fight this time?"

"Could it be that he suffered some grievances in the sect?"

"As for the situation between our sect and the Seven Stars Sect, it's similar to previous years.

Nothing new has happened."

"Recently, however, the True Lord has ordered us Foundation Establishment practitioners to frequently appear within the Seven Stars Sect's territory but not stay for too long.

It's quite strange."

"Meng Guan."

Meng Guan did not mention whether he needed help.
