Chapter 515: Hundred giants

Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue carried Song Shuhang along and arrived at the sixteenth underground floor of the immortal cave. In there was a completely white room, very s.p.a.cious and devoid of objects.

The sixteenth floor of the immortal cave was the place with the highest concentration of mysterious energy and matter.

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue asked, ”Little friend Shuhang, you're currently unable to use true qi, right? In that case, we'll practice without using it. Which type of environment do you prefer for battle? A forest? An ancient city? A plain? The sea?”

I can choose the environment I prefer? Song Shuhang pondered for a moment and replied, ”In that case, I'll choose the ancient city.”

”Good, the ancient city it is!” Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue opened his arms and operated the spiritual energy inside his body.

In the next moment, the white room started to change.

The surrounding s.p.a.ce started to expand without limits.

A nearly ten meters tall wall suddenly rose from the ground. Afterward, archer towers, clock towers, houses, castles, the inner city, and all kinds of ancient buildings rose from the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the room on the sixteenth underground floor had turned into a fortified ancient city.

Song Shuhang blurted out, ”An illusory reality?”

Only the illusory reality of a Venerable could create such a scene out of nowhere.

The illusory reality was a special skill that Seventh Stage Venerables possessed. With this skill, they could create an illusory s.p.a.ce within the real world. The things inside the illusory s.p.a.ce weren't any different than real things. Even the injuries received there would stay behind after leaving the illusory reality, just like when Song Shuhang entered Venerable White's desert.

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue faintly smiled and said, ”It seems that little friend Shuhang has already experienced Fellow Daoist White's illusory reality... however, we are still in the real world at this time.”

”If we are still in the real world... is it a 'real illusion' then?” Song Shuhang said in amazement.

The 'real illusion' was a skill that was the complete opposite of the 'illusory reality'.

Once it was activated, the real illusion could turn certain events that had happened in the real world into illusions.

Venerable White gained a superficial knowledge of this skill and had Song Shuhang experience it for a while... that was truly a tragic memory for our little friend.

That day, the goldfish-version Song Shuhang was gulped down at once by Doudou. He was shredded to pieces by sharp dog teeth and melted by the gastric acid in his stomach.

Just recalling this memory was enough to make Song Shuhang tremble all over.

”Little friend Shuhang knows about the 'real illusion' as well?” Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue looked at Song Shuhang with a curious expression on his face and explained, ”However, the skill I used isn't the real illusion. That skill can only be mastered only after reaching the Eighth Stage Profound Sage Realm and showing one's divinity in front of the ma.s.ses. I'm still one step short from that point.

The skill I used just now relied on the runes, barriers, and formations engraved in the immortal cave and materialized some of the objects present in my illusory reality in the real world through a special 'shape imitating' magical technique. In other words, it's an 'object imitating' technique. Everything you see here is made of pure energy. If you go ahead and touch it with your hands, you will immediately understand.”

Song Shuhang curiously touched the city walls. Sure enough, he immediately felt as though he was touching pure energy. Although he could touch the walls, they felt different from real walls.

What a strange magical technique...

❄️❄️❄️

After the ancient city materialized out of nowhere...

Song Shuhang asked, ”Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, how are we going to practice?”

He was a cultivator of the Second Stage that couldn't even use the true qi and mental energy in his body. If Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue wanted to practice together with him, he would have to restrain his strength until it was around the Second Stage.

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue said, ”Before starting the practice, I need to get an understanding of your battle prowess. Come, attack me with all your strength!”

It was truly the att.i.tude of an expert.

After hearing these words, Song Shuhang didn't hesitate and immediately attacked Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.

Now that he was unable to use his true qi and mental energy, he could only display the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯ and the pure saber moves of the ❮Inverted Scale Saber Technique❯ without the addition of true qi, as well as the ❮Virtuous Man's Ten Thousand Mile Walk❯ footwork.

If we added the innate skill of the Mouth Aperture, he could reluctantly use the ❮Roaring Lion's Technique❯. However, that wouldn't have any effect on Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.

Song Shuhang used the ❮Virtuous Man's Ten Thousand Mile Walk❯ footwork and quickly approached Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue. Afterward, he used the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯ and attacked him from all kinds of tricky angles.

Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue didn't move and stood in his original place, trying to figure out how to counter Song Shuhang's incoming attacks. In the next moment, his hands danced in the air and gently blocked Song Shuhang's attacks. In all this, his feet didn't move in the least.

”Not bad, your fist technique has already reached the master level, and your movements were flexible and variable, not rigid at all. The combination of the footwork with the fist technique was also very precise,” Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue said, quite satisfied.

Five breaths later, Song Shuhang had already finished displaying one round of the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯.

Then, he stopped his attacks and said, ”Senior, I have other techniques too, but I can't display them, since I can't use true qi at this time.”

It was truly a regrettable matter. Just as Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue got the sudden idea to train together with him, Song Shuhang could only display the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯ and nothing else. It was like gathering the dragon b.a.l.l.s just to wish for a meal because one was hungry at the time...

Song Shuhang knew that he was lacking when it came to martial skills and magical techniques. But there was nothing he could do about it. After all, he had been cultivating for a very short amount of time.
