Chapter 973 - A Draw
Ancient Race members possessed Original Methods, while average Human Clan Star Venerables didn’t possess the Four Qis’ offensive techniques like Jiang Chen. This wasn’t a strange matter because they were people who had reached the Ninth Constellation Palace but still hadn’t learned a Doctrine Method suitable for their Four Qi. However, just the Constellation Palace alone provided them with enough power and let them possess outstanding strength.
However, Star Venerables who possessed a Doctrine Method could instantly kill them as long as they were still at the same Realm Level. Since it was only a few people who had a Doctrine Method, they wouldn’t easily pass it to others.
It was only the Four Qis’ cultivation methods that had spread.
“Indiscernible Movement Technique!” The saint didn’t waste her breath and just used her Constellation Palaces’ power. At such a moment, she seemed like an elegant ice fairy, who was above all mortals. As the saint’s sword’s aura rose in intensity, Jiang Chen discovered that he couldn’t follow her with his eyes.
This wasn’t a matter achieved through great speed as the Holy Wings King had done; it was due to her Doctrine Method. This was a type of movement technique that would let her body be untouchable by all kinds of techniques. It was similar to the penetrative sword strike able to break all myriad techniques.
The untouchable body was the greatest state pursued by most people good at movement techniques. At such a stage, regardless of how ferocious were the enemies’ attacks, they could still walk around among them with ease.
Jiang Chen would have been able to use his penetrative sword strike able to break all techniques to defend against it, but his opponent possessed a Doctrine Embryo, which was why he wouldn’t be able to break her technique because he wasn’t powerful enough. The state of the battle changed, and he could now just suffer a beating because he couldn’t touch the saintess.
Jiang Chen didn’t get in contact with anyone and just collected Desolate Spirits in silence. The Three Middle Realms were vast and boundless, and if he didn’t expose himself on purpose, no one would learn of his presence.
Moreover, a lot of people already assumed that he had died.
“A Doctrine Method…” Jiang Chen muttered. As he thought back to the saint’s untouchable body’s graceful bearing, he couldn’t help but aspire to get one.
In the martial path, it was the martial techniques first before the Doctrine Method. One must first learn martial arts, before the Great Doctrine. As for what was after it, it was fusing martial and Doctrine’s techniques, and aspiring to the apex.
