Chapter 1001: Formidable Defense, Absolute Defense Talisman
Editor: Henyee Translations
Above the dome, an immense golden lightning bolt, dragon-shaped and almost sentient, intermittently appeared amidst the clouds, its golden dragon eyes flickering with thunder.
Undoubtedly, this strike, infused with the most lethal thunder rule and of a rank possibly no less than Shen Ruyan’s Five Elements Divine Thunder, was the most lethal. For Jiang Chengxuan, who was currently exhausted, this pure offensive assault was undoubtedly fatal.
Rumble!
The sound of thunder reverberated through this world, echoing repeatedly, causing ripples in the void.
The next moment, a dragon’s roar suddenly resounded, and the entire world was momentarily bathed in gold, sprinkling flecks of spiritual light and igniting lightning everywhere in the void.
The Dharmic power in the air turned exceedingly violent. The golden dragon, finally swooping down with an unstoppable force, made Jiang Chengxuan feel an overwhelming presence pressing down, his skin tingling with numbness.
The golden divine thunder dragon roared as it struck down; this strike was still fatal. At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan had no strength left to block it.
But just as death seemed imminent, Jiang Chengxuan, with an unchanging expression, lightly pinched a talisman in his hand.
Inscribed on the talisman were incredibly mysterious patterns—this was the Absolute Defense Talisman awarded by the system.
“Activate!”
Facing the furious golden divine dragon, Jiang Chengxuan deployed the Absolute Defense Talisman. Instantaneously, an immensely powerful aura burst forth, chaotically forging a domain of its own in the tumult.
Within this barrier, the power it contained felt like nothingness, invincible and unshakeable.
Rumble!
The golden divine thunder struck the Absolute Defense. This time, however, no terrifying fluctuations occurred.
Or rather, Jiang Chengxuan, within the Absolute Defense barrier, felt nothing.
The previously fearsome golden divine thunder, upon colliding with the Absolute Defense, was like a pebble falling into the deep sea, merely stirring minor ripples.
The terrifying destructive force of the thunder, as if swallowed into another world, abruptly dissipated significantly.
This scene, even Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but feel surprised and greatly admired internally.
The treasure provided by the system indeed maintained its usual quality, fully living up to its name.
Facing the Thunder rule of Mahayana, the strongest killing rule, and being able to defend against it so seamlessly showed the level of this item—perhaps even superior to Mahayana, possibly capable of absolutely blocking even an immortal’s strike.
This wasn’t just a transcendence of cultivation levels but a suppression on the level of rule—the rule from the Absolute Defense Talisman was some absolute rule.
However, the only shortcoming was that, restricted by the rules of this world, Jiang Chengxuan could not use divine powers to restore his strength.
Under the protection of Absolute Defense, he could only slowly circulate his cultivation techniques to recover his Dharmic power.
BOOM!
Outside, the thunder raged furiously, while within the Absolute Defense, Jiang Chengxuan sat in meditation, circulating his energies.
This scene was filled with an eerie feeling.
But just moments later, the terrifying golden divine thunder dragon finally exhausted itself against the Absolute Defense.
The outside scene returned to being covered in gray-white fog, with only the golden lightning still occasionally flickering in the void.
With the Absolute Defense Talisman, Jiang Chengxuan had ultimately stopped the fourth attack of the Seven Kills Sequence.
However, Jiang Chengxuan felt no joy in his heart, knowing that at least three more equally terrifying attacks were soon to come.
And the protective aura of the Absolute Defense, after blocking all the strikes of the golden divine thunder, was not as robust as before,
Its emitted aura was noticeably weaker.
Jiang Chengxuan could not possibly block all attacks with just one talisman.
The next wave of terrifying attacks gave Jiang Chengxuan no chance to breathe, immediately brewing again in the dome above.
The terrifying fluctuation of aura spread, and the fifth attack of the Seven Kill Array revealed its face.
In the void, two tiny black singularities flickered, followed by a spreading aura of destruction,
These two points, swelling rapidly in the wind, quickly transformed into something akin to black holes.
The two black holes grew larger and larger, eventually turning into abyss-like presences in the increasingly terrifying aura.
Deep and unfathomable, these openings seemed to connect to some sinister world, emitting an extremely evil aura.
The next moment, two gigantic black hands stretched out from them, tearing the void violently and striking fiercely against the Absolute Defense.
Rumble!
Under the wave of evil aura, the void instantly shook incessantly, the evil force of corruption instantly turning the barrier black.
Within the Absolute Defense, Jiang Chengxuan felt the world plunge into darkness.
Outside, the two evil hands, growing various bizarre organs and wildly twisting, struck the protection repeatedly and fiercely.
The terrifying presence seemed ready to shatter the void, turning the surrounding area into a land of chaos.
A bizarre rule, aggressively eroding the Absolute Defense barrier, came from a Daolord of a demonic oath, mysterious and sinister. If Jiang Chengxuan had been exposed, he would have faced not only the force of the attack but also the corruption and infection from the abyss.
However, the Absolute Defense barrier spared him from these troubles.
Despite the chaotic surge and explosive growth of the evil power outside, and the corrosion of the void by the dark, bizarre hands, they were still entirely isolated and consumed by the Absolute Defense.
During this attack, Jiang Chengxuan remained worry-free. Within a swath of darkness, he sat in meditation, focusing on regenerating his strength.
Until the darkness finally dispersed, the Absolute Defense Talisman was still standing firm, though the aura it emitted was increasingly faint.
The capability that initially completely isolated all disturbances was now almost gone, further slowing Jiang Chengxuan’s rate of power recovery.
But with the help of the Absolute Defense Talisman, Jiang Chengxuan had endured the fifth round of the Seven Kill Array.
Only two more waves were needed to be withstood to pass this trial.
Moreover, Jiang Chengxuan’s strength had now recovered by nearly twenty percent.
However, at this moment, an unforeseen and shocking change occurred that Jiang Chengxuan had not anticipated.
While he was still planning for the subsequent stages, an incredibly mysterious force suddenly erupted from the ground below.
This attack was so sudden and the power behind it was so mysterious and high-level, that it caught Jiang Chengxuan entirely off guard.
