“How many moves did you last against him?” Wang Jianzhi saw Gu Cizong approaching and cut straight to the chase.
The two were good friends and often sparred on normal days, so Wang Jianzhi was well aware of Gu Cizong’s strength.
Based on the number of moves, Wang Jianzhi could roughly gauge Chen Fei’s strength and have a clear idea in his mind.
Gu Cizong was initially going to talk about the Forget Technique, but Wang Jianzhi’s question suddenly made him hesitant to reveal anything.
Last how many moves?
Gu Cizong didn’t need to count, as it totaled only three moves, or to be precise, Chen Fei had only made two moves before Gu Cizong had been forced to admit defeat.
Continuing the fight would have turned out very badly for Gu Cizong, he knew.
Knowing that losing was inevitable and it wasn’t a fight to the death, Gu Cizong naturally wasn’t going to let himself suffer that fate.
Moreover, Gu Cizong didn’t know exactly how long the effects of Chen Fei’s Forget Technique would last. If it were slightly prolonged, Gu Cizong wouldn’t even dare to leave the Qiankun Mansion, as his strength would be greatly reduced.
If he encountered an enemy outside, it would be an unjust death.
“What’s wrong? Within a hundred moves?” Seeing Gu Cizong’s expression, Wang Jianzhi’s own expression became grave.
If it really had been within a hundred moves that Gu Cizong had lost, then Wang Jianzhi himself would likely have a hard time stopping Chen Fei as well.
Normally when Wang Jianzhi sparred with Gu Cizong, Wang Jianzhi would need nearly two hundred moves to defeat him.
Even though they would hold back a bit during sparring and not use all their killer moves.
“The number of moves isn’t the point. The point is that Chen Fei’s Divine Power is strange, and it triggers a Forget Technique effect.”
Gu Cizong, with a somewhat dark expression, directly bypassed the question of moves.
One hundred moves? If I told you it was only three, wouldn’t it scare you to death?
“Forget Technique?”
Wang Jianzhi’s expression changed slightly, without inquiring further about the moves.
“Yes, Forget Technique. If you confront Chen Fei and use your Divine Power, you forget your Divine Power, and if you use regular moves, you forget those too.”
Gu Cizong nodded, recalling the recent bout, the feeling of frustration still fresh.
Techniques honed by thousands of trials, now instincts, suddenly forgotten—it was absurd!
Hearing Gu Cizong’s words, Wang Jianzhi frowned.
“There must be some kind of limitation within it, have you noticed anything?”
With the Age Tower urging them on, Wang Jianzhi quickly asked.
“Not yet.”
Gu Cizong laughed bitterly—it was only three moves, what could he have noticed?
“Alright, I understand.”
Wang Jianzhi nodded his head, and with a flicker of his body, stepped into the Age Tower.
Seeing Wang Jianzhi enter the tower, nearly twenty thousand cultivators at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm immediately fixed their eyes on the tower, waiting for the final outcome.
As Chen Fei set new records, those from the Sun Moon Realm who ordinarily wouldn’t mingle now gathered too, curious to see how far this prodigy could go.
Even the head of the Qiankun Mansion from the Rule Integration Realm was present in the sky in numerous numbers.
Inside the Age Tower, Wang Jianzhi’s figure appeared, and the surroundings transformed into a dense jungle.
The trees within the jungle soared into the clouds, their heights nearly comparable to some small hills.
From afar, it looked like countless green spires sprang from the ground, densely packed together.
“Wang Jianzhi, please!” Wang Jianzhi watched Chen Fei cautiously.
“Chen Fei, please!” Chen Fei greeted with a salute.
The moment Chen Fei finished speaking, Wang Jianzhi’s figure suddenly vanished into the air, blending into the jungle below.
The Green Emperor Technique, a martial arts developed thirteen thousand years ago.
It focused on Wood Element Rules, characterized by endless life and possessing extremely terrifying vitality and healing capabilities.
Regenerating a severed limb was just a minor trick; even if Wang Jianzhi’s entire body was smashed, as long as his head remained intact, he could recover with ease.
Apart from the head, which was crucial, Wang Jianzhi could afford to lose any other part of his body.
Given the current environment, the power of Wang Jianzhi’s Green Emperor Technique reached its peak.
To say it was indestructible might be an exaggeration, but among those of the same rank, completely annihilating Wang Jianzhi would indeed be an extremely difficult task.
Aside from its exaggerated vitality, the Green Emperor Technique also enabled the cultivator’s aura to blend completely with the trees, making it top-notch in concealment.
Heeding his good friend Gu Cizong’s advice, Wang Jianzhi naturally didn’t plan on fighting Chen Fei head-on; otherwise, if he started forgetting techniques and Divine Powers, how could he continue to fight?
Gu Cizong had been unwilling to disclose the number of moves, clearly indicating it was fewer than a hundred.
“Green Emperor Technique. I’ve cultivated it too,” Chen Fei said with a smile.
A breeze brushed through the jungle below, where the branches and leaves collided with each other, producing crisp sounds.
However, apart from Chen Fei’s echoing voice, Wang Jianzhi did not respond at all.
At this moment, Wang Jianzhi’s purpose was straightforward; he first wanted to observe, from the details of Chen Fei’s moves, to determine what exactly this so-called Forget Technique was about.
Then, based on the observations, he would think about how to defeat Chen Fei.
Mentally, Wang Jianzhi had positioned himself to strategize before acting, and as for the fact that Chen Fei had also cultivated the Green Emperor Technique, Wang Jianzhi didn’t take it to heart.
From Chen Fei’s past battles, it was clear that Chen Fei’s fighting style tended towards the Desolate Soul Sutra, which involved straightforward combat.
This was most apparent when Chen Fei had defeated Kuang Xingfeng.
Now claiming to have cultivated the Green Emperor Technique, how much time could that have taken? Even if you did trade for the Green Emperor Technique, to what extent could you have cultivated it?
Even if a prodigy has superior insight, insight also needs some time to be realized; the Desolate Soul Sutra and the Green Emperor Technique are obviously two different styles of martial arts.
Chen Fei couldn’t possibly ignore his main martial arts to focus solely on learning the Green Emperor Technique, could he?
At most, Chen Fei might take some inspiration from the Green Emperor Technique but definitely couldn’t have studied it in-depth.
Given this situation, what was there for Wang Jianzhi to worry about?
Not receiving a response from Wang Jianzhi, Chen Fei gave a slight smile, flipped the Qianyuan Sword in his hand, and the next moment, his figure disappeared into the jungle below.
The Desolate Night God Slaying Sword had refined fifty-seven Emperor-level techniques, one of which was the Green Emperor Technique.
The panel of refined techniques followed Chen Fei’s will, making flesh power the trunk and other rules the branches.
Therefore, Wang Jianzhi wasn’t entirely wrong; Chen Fei indeed hadn’t cultivated the full Green Emperor Technique.
However, the exquisite parts of the Green Emperor Technique had already been integrated into the Desolate Night God Slaying Sword, and Chen Fei had cultivated the Desolate Night God Slaying Sword to the Great Completion realm.
Regarding the understanding of the Green Emperor Technique, Chen Fei was far superior compared to others who were also cultivating it, possibly on par with Wang Jianzhi.
Because if Wang Jianzhi had cultivated the Green Emperor Technique to the maximum peak, he would now be ready to break through into the Rule Integration Realm, and his ranking in Age Tower would also be much higher.
If an Emperor-level technique cultivated to its peak could not achieve a breakthrough to the Rule Integration Realm, then the human race would barely have any significant presence in the Rule Integration Realm.
Seeing Chen Fei rush into the jungle and disappear, Wang Jianzhi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. Just as he was about to activate the Green Emperor Technique, he suddenly sensed Chen Fei’s Vital Energy rushing towards him.
The leaves within tens of miles around Wang Jianzhi trembled rapidly, and the next moment, Wang Jianzhi’s position had moved to several miles away.
The entire process was dead silent, even intentionally leaving a slight trace at the original location.
But just as Wang Jianzhi shifted his position, Chen Fei’s Vital Energy also changed position, rushing towards him.
Wang Jianzhi’s eyebrows knit tightly. He made hand signs and rapidly moved seven times within the jungle, each time leaving behind something akin to a Vital Energy mirage at his stance, aimed at confusing Chen Fei.
However, Wang Jianzhi moved seven times, and Chen Fei also ceaselessly followed by shifting his position seven times as well.
By the seventh move, the distance between Chen Fei and Wang Jianzhi had closed to less than half a mile.
“Clang!”
A sword streak swept across the jungle, instantly turning all the trees in its path to ash, revealing a vast void several miles wide.
Wang Jianzhi couldn’t dodge in time. In his hands, the Green Wood Ruler turned into a towering tree standing in front of him.
“Boom!”
The sword light collided with the shadow of the giant tree, causing Wang Jianzhi’s face to instantly pale, and blood involuntarily spurted from his mouth as his body was violently smashed into the ground by the tremendous force.
The ground of the entire jungle shook violently, with countless cracks spreading across it.
Given Wang Jianzhi’s cultivation realm and battle strength, normally he wouldn’t have been affected so much by Chen Fei’s strike.
But Wang Jianzhi remembered Gu Cizong’s warning and didn’t dare to use Divine Power to resist, even using a simple move instead of a technique from the Green Emperor Technique to test the waters.
Such a result was naturally unable to withstand Chen Fei’s strike.
However, Wang Jianzhi relied on the overwhelming vitality of the Green Emperor Technique; ordinary injuries weren’t a concern to him.
Just like in this moment, although heavily injured just earlier, his body was now recovering at an astonishing speed as the trees within a hundred miles continuously transmitted Wood Element Vital Energy towards him.
Wang Jianzhi slapped the ground with his left hand, flipping upright, and settled 30 miles away from Chen Fei.
Seeing that Chen Fei did not pursue, Wang Jianzhi attempted to use the towering tree move from earlier, only to discover that he had forgotten a crucial part of it, his face slightly changing as a result.
Forcibly using it was still possible; after all, it was just a minor move, which could be substituted in the forgotten part with other techniques.
But minor techniques could be replaced like this; the techniques in the Green Emperor Technique were not so easily replaceable, and even if replaced, the power was probably unsatisfactory.
As for Divine Power, it was used to stir rule particles, whose operational laws were extremely strict and meticulous, hardly replaceable on the spur of the moment.
“Can my fully comprehended Qing Emperor Body resist this Forget Technique?”
The way Wang Jianzhi broke through to the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm was by understanding the rule particles in Divine Power; hence, the Qing Emperor Body was Wang Jianzhi’s strongest Divine Power.
But a pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm could only use one Divine Power, with all others disabled, leaving him practically without options for combat.
“If my Qing Emperor Body can resist it, then by using the Qing Emperor Body as a shell to protect other Divine Powers and techniques, could I also avoid it?”
A thought flashed across Wang Jianzhi’s mind.
