When Zhuge Xiang Possessed Deity Transformation Cultivation (Part Two)

Power! An unprecedented feeling of immense strength made Zhuge Xiang feel as if he could tear apart the Void hands. Along the way, relying on his advantages in equipment, Skill, and combat techniques, Zhuge Xiang always challenged opponents of higher levels and won against stronger opponents. Every time he faced Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator, Zhuge Xiang's own cultivation level was far inferior to that of his opponent.

But today, as Xiao Yue entered its Growth Stage and unleashed its Devourer's Treasure Skill, Zhuge Xiang's Character Interface prominently displayed his cultivation level as the Deity Transformation Stage First Layer.

Boom!

The power of Heaven and Earth and earth swept in, along with the domineering full Blade Intent and the blessing of the Demonic True Body. The power of Heaven and Earth even formed a visible whirlwind around Zhuge Xiang, causing his hair to fly wildly. The aura that Will Collapse was unleashed from Zhuge Xiang without reservation.

"So powerful!" At this moment, everyone on Sword Peak stared wide-eyed at Zhuge Xiang, their eyes filled with varying degrees of shock.

Clearly, with his Deity Transformation stage cultivation, coupled with the full power of his Blade Intent and Demonic True Body, Zhuge Xiang at this moment exuded an aura no less than that of a powerhouse at the fourth or fifth level of the Divine Ability Stage.

"Blood Thunder Slash!" With a low shout in his heart, the sound of thunder resounded for dozens of miles around. This Thunderclap was truly like a thunderclap from the sky. The Azure Nether Blade in his hand transformed into a blood-red Lightning, which slammed fiercely into the White Bone Seal. With a loud bang, the White Bone Seal, which had a force of no less than 100,000 jin, was cleaved back by Zhuge Xiang's single slash.

The skeleton warrior and Gu Siqi attacked simultaneously, flanking Zhuge Xiang. The skeleton warrior's blade was completely unaffected by Zhuge Xiang's Blade Intent, while the White Bone Blade in Gu Siqi's hand emitted a sharp, Ghost Howl, affecting people's minds.

"Three Consecutive Slashes!" As the skeleton Warships and Gu Siqi appeared in front of him, Zhuge Xiang transformed into a phantom, flashing on the skeleton Warships and Gu Siqi almost simultaneously.

The speed of the Three Consecutive Slashes was even slightly faster than the Explosive Steps. The terrifying speed caused blood to bloom, and a huge knife wound appeared on Gu Siqi's chest, as if it had appeared out of thin air. Zhuge Xiang's figure stopped in front of the skeleton warrior.

"It's that move again," a sharp pain shot through his chest, the Attack Speed too fast to react to, Gu Siqi's pupils constricted slightly.

However, Zhuge Xiang did not stay beside Gu Siqi in the end, so he did not cause Gu Siqi to bleed. With the flow of energy, Gu Siqi easily stopped the bleeding near the wound.

Despite his injuries, Gu Siqi forgot about holding back and realized this was merely a warm-up before the Dragon Phoenix Ranking began. A powerful attack erupted once more.

"Misfortune Entanglement," Zhuge Xiang, who was focused on dealing with the skeleton warriors and preparing to defeat them one by one, sensed Gu Siqi approaching. He swung his hand back and unleashed the Misfortune Gauntlet, the equipment that had dropped along with the Three Consecutive Slashes when he killed the Poison Emperor.

Misfortune Gauntlet (One-Star Treasure Artifact): Requires Third Layer of Return to Simplicity Realm, Defense +1200, Passive: Nearby targets will be Misfortune Entanglement, 10% chance, Skill attacks will miss, Durability 220/220, Weight 5.

Sweep Through Thousands of Soldiers, he brandished the Azure Nether Blade, knocking back Gu Siqi and the skeleton warrior. Then, he activated his Explosive Steps, unleashing another slash that Knockback. Finally, he drew his Wild Bow, and a Piercing Arrow shot out, a dazzling beam of light striking the skeleton warrior precisely.

Three Consecutive Slashes Sweep Through Thousands of Soldiers, a barrage of slashing and Piercing Arrow raining down on the skeleton warrior. With Zhuge Xiang's current attack power, as the final, dazzling arrow shot out, the skeleton warrior's skeletal body shattered and scattered across the ground, clearly dead.

"Take this! Hundred and Eighty Forms of Demonic Flames!" At this moment, Gu Siqi, who had been Sweep Through Thousands of Soldiers sweeping attack, also chased after him despite his injuries. The White Bone Blade in his hand turned into afterimages, and the attacks were so fast that they were difficult to see.

The Hundred and Eighty Forms of Demonic Flames is Secret Technique of the Asura Sect. Its key point is to unleash 180 attacks in an extremely short period of time at a terrifying speed, cutting the opponent into pieces with such incredible Attack Speed. Zhuge Xiang's displayed strength forced Gu Siqi to resort to such a killing move.

Drink!

Seeing Gu Siqi chasing after him, Zhuge Xiang opened his mouth, and a dazzling light shot out from his mouth—the Zhuge Xiang Moonlight Arrow.

Zhuge Xiang is now truly a man of many offensive means. In addition to his ordinary limbs, his Demonic True Body has a pair of horns that can also be used as weapons. He can also shoot attacks from his eyes with his Ice Eye and launch Moonlight Arrow and Moonlight Cannon from his mouth.

The dazzling light of the Moonlight Arrow shattered and scattered under Gu Siqi's storm of attacks. His hands moved incessantly, and countless White Bone Blades, relentlessly and relentlessly, swept in...

Palm Thunder!

Zhuge Xiang raised his palm high, his eyes fixed on Gu Siqi. Thunderbolts appeared in the sky, continuously striking down and gathering in his palm. This was the Palm Thunder, which could be learned at the Return to Simplicity Realm. Now that Zhuge Xiang's cultivation had reached the Deity Transformation stage, how powerful would it be?

Holding a Thunderclap in his palm, Zhuge Xiang's Palm Thunder now seemed to truly possess that power. The terrifying Thunderclap force and the destructive aura emanating from it caused everyone on Sword Peak to pale in horror...

They initially thought that the sparring between Zhuge Xiang and Gu Siqi, though intense, would at least involve restraint from both sides. However, they were wrong. The Asura Sect Disciple were all battle maniacs. When two battle maniacs met, how could it be a peaceful exchange of blows, with each exchanging a sword and a saber?

"Palm Thunder!" Yin Wugu stared wide-eyed in horror at the blindingly bright Lightning in Zhuge Xiang's hand.

The Palm Thunder, a signature Spell attack of Cultivator at the Spell Control Stage, was actually seen on Zhuge Xiang, and its power was so terrifying that Yin Wugu dared not imagine it.

On Sword Peak, the other Cultivator were all deathly pale. Who among them who could reach Sword Peak wasn't a renowned genius in Yanling Commandery? Who among them wasn't a person who was extremely arrogant? In their eyes, although Zhuge Xiang was very strong and had an impressive record, he was, after all, just Qi Refining Stage Cultivator. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't be much stronger than themselves.

But now, with Zhuge Xiang's Skill of Devourer's Treasure activated, and the Palm Thunder now in effect, the so-called superiority of geniuses in these Human Heart has crumbled. They know deep down that they simply cannot withstand Zhuge Xiang's Palm Thunder, no matter what.

Boom!

A flash of lightning, and with a violent tremor of its Phoenix Feather Wings, Zhuge Xiang pressed the Lightning in his hand down towards Gu Siqi...

The attacks came in layers, relentless and unending. But Zhuge Xiang's Palm Thunder remained unmoved. If Gu Siqi's attacks were like waves of tsunamis, then Zhuge Xiang's Palm Thunder was like a reef standing firm in the sea.

Layer upon layer of afterimages of White Bone Blade were completely shattered by Zhuge Xiang's Palm Thunder. With a single strike, just one Palm Thunder strike, Zhuge Xiang completely crushed Gu Siqi's Hundred and Eighty Forms of Demonic Flames attack. With a scream, Gu Siqi's body was directly blasted away, falling to the ground and leaving a long gash. His body twitched unconsciously, and sparks of electricity could even be seen flashing. Under the terrifying attack of the Palm Thunder, he had completely lost consciousness.

"Ding! You have defeated an Elite target at the Divine Ability Stage Second Layer, gaining 3.8 million experience points and obtaining the Void Ring."

As Gu Siqi was knocked unconscious, a system notification sounded in Zhuge Xiang's mind: 3.8 million Experience Points, not bad. More importantly, a piece of equipment had dropped. With the victory, Zhuge Xiang deactivated the Devourer's Treasure state and opened his Bag Space. Sure enough, a pale silver Ring was lying inside.

Void Ring (One-Star Treasure Artifact): Requires Return to Simplicity Realm Fifth Layer, Attack +560, Critical Hit +10%, Passive: Allows the wearer to pass through any target individual, Durability 160/160, Weight 3.

The information about the Void Ring secretly delighted Zhuge Xiang. He had obtained a Treasure Artifact -level Ring that not only added 560 attack points and 10% critical strike chance, but also had a very practical passive effect: it could pass through any target. Didn't that mean that if Zhuge Xiang wore this Void Ring, he could completely pass through the opponent's body? This strange ability, if used well, could definitely have miraculous effects.

Atop Sword Peak, all was silent. Almost everyone was staring at Zhuge Xiang. Gu Siqi's strength was worthy of his title. Judging from his strength, he should have had no difficulty entering the top five of this year's Dragon Phoenix Ranking. But Zhuge Xiang had defeated him. It wasn't that Gu Siqi was too weak, but that Zhuge Xiang was ridiculously strong.

"Is this guy really only eighteen years old? How can he possess such complete Blade Intent? And Demonic True Body? Is this something an eighteen-year-old could comprehend?"

"Besides the Blade Intent, there's also the Arrow Intent that just killed that skeleton, equally terrifying. That terrifying Arrow Intent seemed capable of piercing through even the Heaven and Earth. I heard he's also comprehended Sword Intent and Spear Intent. This guy is truly freakish."

"Just now he provoked Yin Wugu, and I thought he was being a bit too arrogant. Now, is Zhuge Xiang stronger, or is Yin Wugu three points better?"

Gu Siqi fell into a coma. Li Haiyan of the Asura Sect stepped in to treat him. Although she could not completely cure him, she quickly brought him back to consciousness. At this time, the Cultivator on Sword Peak were discussing among themselves, all of them shocked by Zhuge Xiang's power.

Originally, everyone thought that Yin Wugu was the most likely candidate for the top spot on the Dragon Phoenix Ranking, followed by Lin Haiyan and Gu Siqi. But now, they have to admit that Zhuge Xiang's demonstrated strength is absolutely enough to compete for the Dragon Phoenix Ranking.

"His strength is even more terrifying..." Tian Lingshan looked at Zhuge Xiang with a flickering gaze.

Initially, Tian Lingshan had heard that Zhuge Xiang was busy with Pill Refining Technique and Appraisal Technique, and she thought that Zhuge Xiang's cultivation had stagnated. But now, Zhuge Xiang has shown her with his strength that even though he is busy with his Life Profession of Appraisal Technique and Pill Refining Technique, his strength is still formidable.

The Sword Peak Gathering was primarily for sparring, but after the epic battle between Zhuge Xiang and Gu Siqi, the subsequent sporadic sparring sessions were of much lower quality. Seeing that no one wanted to challenge him anymore, Zhuge Xiang shook his head and left Sword Peak early... (To be continued...)
