The divine hall shook gently. Vaguely, Jianchen seemed to hear a grunt from the Artifact Spirit.
Jianchen could not help but smile. He knew that the Soul-destroying technique he possessed was enough to cause some trouble for the Artifact Spirit.
Of course, it would only be trouble. After all, his current Martial Soul Force was only equivalent to an early Overgod.
If it were not for the fact that his Martial Soul Force could ignore the defences of the divine hall and directly attack the Artifact Spirit, he would not have been able to do so.
He probably would not even be able to scratch an itch for the divine hall.
After all, the greatest advantage of the Artifact Spirit of the divine hall was that it could use artifacts to fight. As a medium quality god artifact, Infinite Primes would not be able to do anything to it.
However, once the powerful shell that they relied on lost its function, they would become very weak.
Martial Soul Force just happened to be the bane of the Artifact Spirit.
"Artifact Spirit, I wonder if scratching an itch is comfortable?" Jianchen sat on a rock before the divine hall and seemed to be smiling.
"Hmph, it's comfortable, it's comfortable. It's far too comfortable. Jianchen, kid, keep going. Why have you stopped? Is it because you don't have the ability to keep going? "The Artifact Spirit of the divine hall snorted in provocation.
"I've only just grasped the Soul-destroying technique, so I can't use it as I please. I can use it with a single thought, so I just happen to need some practice. Since you're so eager for me to scratch an itch for you, I'll do as you wish, "Jian Chen said indifferently. With that, he closed his eyes and condensed the Soul-destroying technique again.
"He can actually use it a second time? Hmph, using a secret technique like that will definitely take quite a toll on him. Let's see how many times he can use it … "The Artifact Spirit that hid in the divine hall murmured softly. It had already become cautious.
Although the Soul-destroying Technique from before was unable to injure it, its attacking power was enough to affect it somewhat. Once or twice was fine, but if it were to be used a few more times, even if it wouldn't be injured, the feeling would still be unbearable.
Afterwards, Jianchen sat before the divine hall and used the Soul-destroying technique time and time again. As he used it more and more, he gradually became more and more comfortable with condensing the Soul-destroying technique. The interval between each use decreased from once every two hours to twice every two hours, and then three times every two hours.
Whenever Jianchen's Soul-destroying technique landed on the Artifact Spirit, the divine hall would tremble gently. At the same time, the trembling would become greater and greater as Jianchen used the Soul-destroying technique more and more.
"Comfortable, so comfortable. This feeling is just too wonderful. I've been alive for millions of years, but I've never experienced such a wonderful feeling. Jianchen, hurry up …" The Artifact Spirit's voice rang out. In reality, its face had already begun to twist as it hid in the divine hall.
It endured seven or eight consecutive attacks from the Soul-destroying technique. Every single attack landed on its mind with great precision. Although it was not injured, the feeling was just too horrible.
It was like an ordinary person experiencing pain similar to a headache. Although a headache would not harm their soul, it would definitely be horrible.
Right now, the Artifact Spirit was experiencing pain like that.
Finally, after using the Soul-destroying technique over a dozen times, Jianchen stopped. He had basically run out of Martial Soul Force.
"The time it takes to condense the Soul-destroying technique has already been shortened to five minutes. Although it's still quite far from being able to condense it with a thought, it's still quite an improvement." Jianchen stood up and began making his way towards the cave where the Martial Soul Rock was mined.
"Jianchen, why aren't you continuing? Are you leaving just like that? I still haven't had enough … "The Artifact Spirit's provocative voice rang out from behind.
Only when Jianchen completely vanished did the Artifact Spirit finally let out a long sigh of relief. "He's finally gone. If this continued, I would definitely go insane from the torture. Why did I have to encounter this god damned Martial Soul Force …"
With the Martial Soul Rock, it was extremely easy for Jianchen to recover Martial Soul Force. He could directly mine it and absorb the Martial Soul Force inside.
At the same time, Jianchen's rate at absorbing Martial Soul Force had become extremely fast. The next day, his Martial Soul Force had recovered to its peak condition. Afterwards, he left the cave and returned to the rock before the divine hall. He used the Artifact Spirit to practise.
Seeing Jianchen, the Artifact Spirit could not help but launch a verbal attack. It mocked and provoked him.
However, Jianchen ignored it. He could not be bothered with it. He used the Soul-destroying technique as soon as he arrived.
Several hours later, Jianchen used the Soul-destroying technique over a dozen times. He left after running out of Martial Soul Force. He returned to the cave where the Martial Soul Rock was mined to recover.
On this day, the rate at which he condensed the Soul-destroying technique increased once again. The time he took to condense the Soul-destroying technique increased from once to twice.
Afterwards, Jianchen used the Artifact Spirit to practise the Soul-destroying technique every day. Finally, after a month of practice, he became even more familiar with the Soul-destroying technique. He only needed ten seconds to condense the Soul-destroying technique every time.
"Ten seconds is still too long. I need to reach the level of instantaneous release with a single thought. Only then will I be able to catch them off guard." Jianchen was still dissatisfied. He continued to practise diligently.
However, the further he progressed, the more difficult it became. After another three months, Jianchen finally reached the level where he could use the Soul-destroying technique freely. He could instantaneously release the Soul-destroying technique with a single thought.
It was also at this moment that he finally grasped a secret technique for Martial Soul Force.
The secret technique could make his attacks with Martial Soul Force even sharper and more powerful.
Of course, the artifact spirit of the divine hall had been tormented by Jian Chen in the past few months as well. It felt like he was in purgatory. After living for tens of thousands of years, he truly understood what it was like to live a day like a year and what it was like to live a living hell.
Its attitude towards Jianchen changed time and time again. In the beginning, it constantly provoked him, mocking him all day long. However, from the second month onwards, it became silent. It would often go days without saying anything.
In the final month, the Artifact Spirit of the divine hall seemed to be driven mad from the torture. It stopped being silent and directly began to curse.
"Now, I can practise the second secret technique. This secret technique is called the Heaven-severing technique!"
"The Heaven-severing technique is extremely powerful. It's specially used against powerful opponents who are far more powerful than me. However, the Heaven-severing technique is extremely draining. It can be regarded as a trump card. Every time I use it, it will consume half of my Martial Soul Force. The more powerful my Martial Soul Force is, the more powerful the Heaven-severing technique will be … "
"With first senior brother Hun Zang, second senior brother Chu Jian, and third senior brother Yue Chao's Martial Soul Force, they'll probably be able to directly obliterate some weaker Grand Primes once they use the Heaven-severing technique …"
