Chapter 3071: Comprehension Technique

Di Qiong explained, "What you have created is a comprehension stage that only happens when someone has received a deep insight into things. This is something that is only possible to attain with incredible enlightenment. There are schildren who can understand such things, but at other times, even people at my level like the Three Pillars and Six Skies cannot grasp it. That is what it means to be a comprehension technique.

"The technique you just created is a comprehension technique. Starting now, Ye Bo, you will be my Third Scourge’s second representative for the Divine Selection."

Lu Yin was taken aback. "But I am still no match for Fei."

"No. She is not your match. Comprehension techniques possess unfathomable power. It is difficult to say whether a comprehension technique is more powerful than sequence particles, but there is one thing that is absolutely certain: no one actively tries to develop comprehension techniques because it is impossible to do so. This is true even for someone like me.

"It is possible that you will never comprehend the laws of the universe and wield sequence particles, but with this comprehension ability, you can stand equal to sequence powerhouses, even without divine energy. It all depends on how well you can comprehend the technique.

"I have personally borne witness to the most terrifying comprehension technique. Just a single thought was enough to transform heaven and earth into ancient history, while causing everything to vanish and simply cease to exist. Everything returned to the origin.

"On top of that, since you have recovered from the corrosion of the divine energy, I will not go back on my word. I already told you that, as long as you recover from that ordeal, you will be allowed to represent my Third Scourge."

Lu Yin kept his head bowed and did not look at Di Qiong. Even so, it was impossible to miss the desire in Di Qiong’s voice when he spoke of comprehension techniques.

Comprehension technique? This was not Lu Yin’s first one. The first one he had created was the Flipping the Sky that Lu Xiaoxuan had developed.

Flipping the Sky: the sky was above, and the earth below. Then, the earth would be in the sky: flipping the sky.

The technique that Lu Yin had just developed was called Setting Sun. This technique revealed the setting sun, and it created an image of twilight along the horizon. This was the culmination of Lu Yin’s comprehension of martial techniques, and it was also what the technique attacked. As long as a creature cultivated, they were part of the world of martial techniques, which meant that they could be attacked by Setting Sun.

Lu Yin finally understood why Lu Xiaoxuan had drawn out Ancestor Lu Yuan when he had created Flipping the Sky; it was because Flipping the Sky was a comprehension technique. Just like how Di Qiong had been amazed by the creation of such a technique, so too had Ancestor Lu Yuan.

Lu Yin also finally understood why Lu Xiaoxuan had been able to create Flipping the Sky; it was because comprehension techniques had nothing to do with one’s cultivation or age.

A child might be able to comprehend the insights needed for such a technique, while those at the level of Three Pillars and Six Skies might fail to do so. This was the power of a comprehension technique. It was a mysterious and profound power, and not even the Three Pillars and Six Skies could willingly tread this path. The ability to walk it depended on luck and whether or not one could obtain sgreat enlightenment.

Di Qiong was incredibly envious of Ye Bo. The man truly desired to master a comprehension technique, but such things simply could not be forcibly obtained.

The fact that Ye Bo had created a comprehension technique at such a moment made Di Qiong feel as though sunseen power was helping him. Without Ye Bo, the Third Scourge could only send Di Xia and Fei to the Divine Selection. Mu Ji's betrayal was already being treated as confirmed after Lu Yuan had appeared in the Third Scourge to rescue Wu Tian. That incident had also injured Fei, which could have easily been predicted.

Then there was Ye Bo. He was an outsider who had been brought to the Third Scourge by Di Qiong just before the Divine Selection. The man had chosen to learn and cultivate the Corpse King Transformation in order to stay in the Third Scourge. He had confronted Lu Yuan when the human powerhouse appeared, and Ye Bo had somehow survived the incident without suffering serious injuries. After that, he had managed to develop a comprehension technique after being thrown into a lake of divine energy. Everything that had happened with Ye Bo seemed like a gift being granted to the Third Scourge, and Di Qiong felt that his representatives would definitely stand out during the Divine Selection.

Ye Bo was undoubtedly prepared for the upcoming battle.

Di Qiong stared at Ye Bo, finding the man more and more pleasing to the eye as twent by.

"A comprehension technique is not at all easy to master. In a few days, I will have an opponent prepared for you so that you can test out your new technique and see its power."

Lu Yin answered in a respectful tone, "I will accept whatever you arrange, Senior Di Qiong."

Di Qiong nodded, feeling quite satisfied. "By the way, are you interested in Wu Tian?"

Lu Yin did not deny it. "I was born in the Origin Universe, where Wu Tian is a legend, as he is one of the Three Realms and Six Daos."

"If you're interested in him, you can go back and look at him again."

With that, Di Qiong left.

Lu Yin returned to his tower, feeling completely relieved.

He had just survived far too dangerous a situation. He had inadvertently created a comprehension technique, which had drawn Di Qiong's attention. If Lu Yin had instead drawn True God’s attention, it would have been disastrous.

However, True God would not be easily drawn out. He had been injured and was in seclusion to recover. It was even possible that the man was preoccupied with overcoming Dukkha.

Lu Yin looked towards the Wu Tian Observatory. Wu Tian had shared his memories of the pinnacle of martial techniques with Lu Yin, which had allowed him to develop a comprehension technique. This time, it was Lu Yin who had developed the comprehension technique.

Di Qiong had also given Ye Bo permission to see Wu Tian, though there was no need to rush things. Lu Yin intended to wait a bit longer.

Elsewhere, Fei asked to meet with Di Qiong.

"Your Excellency, what was that just now?"

"A comprehension technique. Ye Bo just created one for himself."

Fei was startled. "He created a comprehension technique?"

Di Qiong stared at Fei. "Do you have any objections if I have Ye Bo replace you for the Divine Selection?"

"Of course not. I am injured, and the Divine Selection won’t be delayed for my sake," Fei answered respectfully.

Di Qiong nodded. "Still, if even with his divine energy and comprehension technique, Ye Bo proves to not be your match, I will have you participate in the Divine Selection. That’s why I’ve made plans for you two to spar in a few days."

Fei bowed her head. "Yes, my lord."

She was not foolish. While Di Qiong was calling it a spar, this was nothing less than an opportunity for Ye Bo to obtain greater mastery of his new comprehension technique. However, there was no other way for Fei. Aeternus respected the strong.

Xin Wu had been severely injured by Di Xia, and he did not dare complain about any of his arrangements. In the future, Ye Bo's status in the Third Scourge would surpass Fei’s, and he would becsecond only to Di Xia. If Ye Bo’s comprehension technique was truly powerful, then he might surpass even Di Xia in a few more years and becsecond only to Di Qiong.

Elsewhere, Di Xia averted his gaze. A comprehension technique? Ye Bo had already successfully dodged one of Di Xia’s attacks, and he had also managed to physically suppress Xin Wu, which proved that he was no weakling. After developing a comprehension technique, it seemed likely that Ye Bo would be joining Di Xia in the Divine Selection.

A comprehension technique... Di Xia wondered how strong it was.

A few days later, Di Qiong led Fei and Lu Yin to a corner of the Third Scourge.

The two turned to face each other.

They had already briefly exchanged moves on the Wu Tian Observatory; during that, Ye Bo had been wounded by Fei's bizarre sword technique before being overpowered by her physical strength. This time, Lu Yin wanted to test out the power of his new comprehension technique, which was exactly what Di Qiong and Fei also wanted to see.

In fact, not even Lu Yin himself knew how powerful Setting Sun was.

A slender sword appeared in Fei's hand, and her pupils completely disappeared as she underwent the Pupilless Transformation.

Their brief exchange on the Wu Tian Observatory had not fully demonstrated the terrifying power of Fei's Pupilless Transformation. When she activated it preemptively for her formal spar with Ye Bo, a terrifying power appeared along the edge of her sword's blade. The weapon made Lu Yin nervous. She was a sequence powerhouse, and with the physical strength boost of the Pupilless Transformation, she had to be about as powerful as Zhong Pan.

Lu Yin moved back one step after another. The edge of the sword seemed almost alive, and for sreason, Lu Yin saw something different in the sword.

In his eyes, the edge of Fei's sword was no longer a sword, but rather a claw. At that moment, the image of the Divine Eagle attacking the fish in the lake appeared in Lu Yin’s mind, and Fei’s sword technique seemed identical to those talons. The comparison left Lu Yin momentarily stunned.

He reflexively dodged as the blade drew close. The sword sliced through the void and cut the ground open.

A strand of hair fell.

Fei stared at Lu Yin through eyes which had lost their pupils. "Were you just daydreaming?"

Lu Yin indifferently replied, "I was merely trying to understand your sword technique."

"How did that go?"

"I dodged it."

"I was holding back."

The edge of the blade was quite close to Lu Yin's face. There was less than a meter between him and Fei, so they were both able to see the other clearly. As Fei spoke, her sword swept to the side, brushing past Lu Yin's neck. She took a step forward, clenching the hilt of her sword tightly as she tried to slam the hilt into Lu Yin. He had not anticipated such an attack, as this was not a sword technique, or at least not one that he had ever seen before. It was as though Fei was abandoning the blade of the sword, or even abandoning the sword itself.

Divine energy surged within Lu Yin, and it turned his eyes red. Visually, this was nearly identical to a Red Eyes Transformation, but Lu Yin was using his own power at this moment. He placed his hands over each other to block the blow from Fei’s sword hilt, but as he did so, Fei’s left hand darted in from an unseen angle and struck Lu Yin’s chest.

As she struck, Lu Yin’s leg rose up and snapped out.

Bang!

The noise of the impact rang out as the void churned and tore. Divine power accompanied a terrifying shockwave that swept out, shaking the corner of the Third Scourge.

The two people both fell back at the stime.

Fei was amazed by the power of Ye Bo’s Corpse King Transformation. His Red Eyes Transformation had stopped her attack while she was in a Pupilless Transformation.

Lu Yin was similarly surprised by Fei's unorthodox fighting style. Despite the fact that he was wary of her sword techniques, she had abandoned such methods without hesitation. Such unpredictability made her unstoppable, especially when combined with her Corpse King Transformation.

They had only briefly exchanged moves, but sthings had already becclear.

Di Qiong was greatly satisfied with what he observed.

Peak powerhouses could shatter the planets and stars when they fought, or they could engage in close combat. The Corpse King Transformation was essentially a close-combat technique. Fei used it in combination with her sword skills to create something that most of her opponents could not handle. Surprisingly, Ye Bo was able to endure her assault with a combination of the Corpse King Transformation and divine energy, which boosted his strength. His reflexes were also fast enough to dodge Fei's sword. Ye Bo more than demonstrated a level of strength worthy of the First Scourge’s True God Guard Captains.

Fei clenched her sword even more tightly. "You really are qualified to represent the Third Scourge in the Divine Selection, but most of the representatives you will face will be sequence powerhouses. I’m going to go all out now."

"Bring it on."

Fei thrust her sword forwards, just like before. However, Lu Yin knew that the sword was reinforced with sequence particles this time. What law of the universe had Fei comprehended? It was impossible for Lu Yin to use Heaven’s Sight at this moment, which meant that his only option was to use divine energy.

His divine energy exploded, creating a pillar of light that seemed to connect the ground to the sky. The sight drew the attention of many cultivators and corpse kings throughout the Third Scourge.

Even Di Xia looked over, noticing that Ye Bo possessed a shocking amount of divine energy.

Fei's sword could not even get close to Lu Yin, as it was blocked by his divine energy. This was to be expected, but divine energy would eventually run out. Fei was well aware of just how much divine energy a Progenitor-level corpse king could possess, but even if Ye Bo was uniquely talented for cultivating divine energy, he could not possess much more than that.

She intended to exhaust Ye Bo’s divine energy.

If she were facing Chong Gui or any of the other True God Guard Captains, Fei's swordsmanship and her Corpse King Transformation would be enough to overpower their divine energy. However, Ye Bo was not that weak. If Fei could defeat him without using her sequence particles, she would not have chosen to use them.

"Stop wasting time. You can't exhaust Ye Bo's divine energy. Ye Bo, that's enough," Di Qiong spoke up.

Fei's eyes flickered as she stared at Lu Yin while divine energy surged around him. He isolated himself from the rest of the world, and Fei could not get any closer. He looked at her, and suddenly, one of his hands rose into the sky. On the horizon, a setting sun appeared. It was somehow on the horizon, but also right in front of Fei and Ye Bo.

Di Qiong's eyes went wide and blazed with desire. Even he felt jealousy towards a comprehension technique.
