Volume 42 Chapter 13 (1/2)
Book 42, The Five Truncheon Chapters, Chapter 13 - Deathless
Hawkfang had created this technique in order to take revenge upon the Sithe He wanted to take revenge for both his father's sake and his own sake, and for the sake of the countless deceived Sithe descendants! They were viewed as disposable cannon fodder by the true Sithe, while even his father had been forced to take part in the war
”The two of us, father and son… we certainly share a sorry fate” These words continued to stab against Hawkfang's heart like knives He would never be able to forget that look on his father's face This hy he needed revenge
He wanted to create this technique, then find a way to deliver it to the cultivators! He felt certain that the cultivators would be able to use it to draemons and even new Autarchs That way, the Sithe would be defeated
But of course, if the Sithe found out that he was creating this technique, he would be doomed! Thus, he had carried out all of his experis who resided within his own estate-treasure As a Hegemon, he hadbeings He had these beings test out his cultivation techniques, anddue to errors in the technique He had tested theain, then remade them repeatedly
His talent was put to full effect here He quickly mastered the [Mortal Chapter] and the [FiendGod Chapter] The first was comparable to pre-Celestial Tribulation levels of the Three Real post-tribulation to the Elder God/Ancestral Immortal level
Although it was different from the way in which the nine techniques operated, it was successful and had a si's own azureflower seal technique
The [World Chapter] covered World Gods and Chaos Immortals It was clearly far reat deal of time… but in the end, he succeeded once more
The [Daolord Chapter], however, was even more difficult It must be remembered that even the finest of the nine special techniques only allowed for cultivators to safely train to the World level Once one became a Daolord of the First Step, the body would crumble apart and the truesoul would be destroyed
Hawkfang spent untold aeons working on the [Daolord Chapter], and to this very day he was still working on it Alas, he had only been able to successfully complete the parts for Daolords of the First Step and Daolords of the Second Step He hadn't been able to succeed for the third or fourth steps!
Due to being stymied by the [Daolord Chapter], he had turned his attention to the [Deathless Chapter] instead The [Deathless Chapter] was e to halt and reverse the cru thee once more
All nine of the Sithe techniques were also focused on recovering froe
”Mortal cultivators who reach a certain level can be reborn fro the 'FiendGod' level, they will not die so long as their truesoul remains unharmed However… if there was a hich would allow a shattered truesoul, the very core of a person's being, to be repaired after already breaking apart? That would represent true deathlessness The only thing which could end one's life would be when the invisible laws that govern everyone's maxi had focused his efforts on the [Deathless Chapter]
He allowed the Daolords residing in his estate-treasures who had failed the Daoone so far as to recruit many disciples in the Sacred Reale, he would have theo into his estate-treasure and test out the [Deathless Chapter]… but of course, he would have thee this to anyone else
He had refined the [Deathless Chapter] over and over again, but to this very day, it remained a failure! Clearly, it was almost completely ie to repair his cru truesoul
Thus, only the first three chapters of the [Five Truncheon Chapters] were complete The [Daolord Chapter] and the [Deathless Chapter] were both flawed and inificantly superior to the nine unique techniques the Sithe had developed It wasn't that Hawkfang was more talented than the Sithe Lord of Chaos; rather, it was that he was able to use those nine techniques as a reference, and was also able to sense the Dao of this Chaosverse
If the Sithe Lord of Chaos was also able to sense the Dao of this Chaosverse, he probably would've been able to easily create a perfect technique which would allow someone to train all the way to the Autarch level
Ning was extre the [Deathless Chapter] As Ning reviewed the technique, he couldn't help but get the feeling that there were certain similarities to the mysteries of the Nine Chaos Seals which Autarch Awakener had created
It was like a brand new door had appeared in front of Ning, one which allowed limitless possibilities in a brand neorld
The Sithe Lord of Chaos was at such an extreht that he was able to create these nine techniques just based on guesswork and prediction He had overhauled them and repeatedly perfected them, but they re of the nature of this Chaosverse's Dao was limited If the Dao had operated in the manner he had believed it to operate, the nine techniques would've been perfect Alas, the Dao was different and so the nine techniques were unusable Hawkfang, however, had ed to use them to create his own [Deathless Chapter]
”I can see hope There are many e can continue to i was different fora Sword Dao, on par with Autarchs in terh level of understanding into the Dao, which hy he was able to reach Hegemony in so many Daos with such ease
