Chapter 204 One Hundred Thousand Naval Troops Cross the Natural Barrier (13)

Standing tall amidst mountains and floods, bathed in torrential rain and dark clouds.

At this moment, Huoji, whose entire body was radiating golden light, indeed had more of a kingly aura than Wuzhiqi.

"Everything is as you predicted..."

“The fact that Lord Gaoyao was willing to return to Ghost God Cliff, and was later sent by the mountain people’s prophet to intercept the Third Prince, shows that His thoughts and stance have indeed changed.”

Ya Shuijun's tone became unusually depressed when he thought about his avatar that had been killed.

"Furthermore, it seems that He has gained a new power."

"Even if his Earth Flame Divine Power is sealed, he can still breathe fire with the power of his physical body."

Upon hearing Ya Shui Jun say this, Huo Ji clearly became interested.

"Physical strength?"

"Life-Generating Breathing Technique?"

"If I remember correctly, this should be the name, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ya Shui Jun immediately flicked his forked tongue and spoke in a somewhat uncertain tone.

"This shouldn't be possible, right?"

"That mountain prophet isn't really a fool, how could he possibly pass on his precious 'breathing technique' to someone who is clearly not convinced by him?"

On this point, Curse seems to have a completely different view.

"If that red-haired demon dares to preach in public, what else is impossible?"

"Moreover, I have carefully studied the 'Life Energy Regulation Breathing Method'."

"Once we can figure out the wicked taste of the red-haired demon in naming his character, the answer is actually right there in the name."

"Life energy is a kind of 'divine power,' and it is a kind of 'divine power' that is universally present in all living beings."

It is obvious that "divine power" is a name given by the calamity to "the primordial energy of heaven and earth".

"We had never thought of this before, nor dared to imagine it..."

Even the weakest being, like an ant, possesses an incredible power within its body.

"What's even more incredible is that the red-haired demon actually thought of actively controlling and using this power by regulating his breathing."

As Huoji spoke, he raised his palm.

The next second, the surging, boiling life force within his body burst forth, forming a tangible storm vortex in his palm.

"The vitality of life within us, as sacred beings, is simply beyond the reach and imagination of ordinary people."

"The thought that becoming a god means abandoning this body, abandoning the power that has always been within us..."

“I think that red-haired demon was right. Perhaps the path to heaven is more possible for ‘celestial beings’ than for ‘celestial gods’.”

Looking at the storm vortex in Huoji's palm, Ya Shui Jun was equally incredulous.

Because he didn't sense any primordial energy from that storm vortex—it was purely a natural phenomenon caused by the outflow of life energy from the body.

"Let go of all preconceived notions..."

"Actually, this so-called 'life energy regulation breathing method' is not really that mysterious."

"Or to be more precise, that red-haired demon never intended to hide the secrets of this breathing technique."

Try to put yourself in someone else's shoes and think from their perspective.

If the Cursed were to discover this power, he would definitely name it with all sorts of profound and obscure terms.

Instead of acting like that red-haired demon, as if afraid others wouldn't understand.

They even specifically used the terms "vital energy" and "regulating breathing" to summarize this power.

"Since divine power from the outside world can grant us different supernatural abilities..."

"Then this divine power that comes from within us can naturally also grant us different supernatural abilities."

"I think that Lord Gaoyao must have discovered a way to use this divine power, which is why he was able to bypass the seal of the Binding God Rope."

A slight smile appeared on his lips. When Huoji looked at that narrow opening again, his eyes were filled with excitement and anticipation.

“Gaoyao’s behavior has made me realize a truth.”

"That means the Binding God Rope can only seal divine power from the outside world, but it cannot lock down the power from within one's own body."

Before Ya Shui Jun could speak, Huo Ji continued.

"Ya Shui Jun, do you know?"

“My second brother died, and my good-for-nothing third brother was also driven away by a mountain girl.”

“My second brother was an opportunistic guy, so I’m not surprised he died.”

"The key is my third brother. Although he's not very capable, his talent is barely acceptable..."

"At the very least, in a typical pantheon, he would be considered a water god of considerable strength."

"With the cooperation of Tianwu and Huatanglang, I thought their combination should be virtually unmatched in these Hundred Mountains."

After a slight pause, Huoji said with considerable emotion.

"As a result, a sealed-off Gao Yao Jun, a spirit skilled in transformation, and a mountain girl who practiced the 'breathing technique' successfully forced them to retreat."

"Especially that mountain girl, she is truly a mortal!"

"However, during combat, a layer of... shield automatically appears on her body?"

"That shield is so strong that even the Flower Mantis's dual blades couldn't break through it in a short time..."

"Even if it is eventually broken, the shield will quickly regenerate with the girl's breathing, and there will be no sign of it being depleted at all."

"I think... that should be a kind of supernatural power derived from the life force."

"If a shield formed from a mere mortal body can have such profound effects, what about those born as saints like you and me?"

"If the life force within our bodies could also form a similar shield, what in this world could possibly harm us?"

Because of the sheer amount of information contained in Huoji's remarks.

Ya Shui Jun was momentarily at a loss for which piece of news to be shocked by.

When Ya Shui Jun was sealed at Ghost God Cliff, he watched Li Jing Shu grow up little by little.

Ya Shui Jun had a deep impression of that human girl who could always get up again the next day no matter how many times she fell off the Ghost Cliff.

But he never imagined that the other party's ability to "not die from falls" actually came from a magical shield.

Judging from Huoji's words, if he weren't afraid of alerting Li Boyang prematurely, he would have even considered forcibly abducting the human girl.

Is that 'breathing technique' really that mysterious?

This was a question that came from the bottom of Ya Shui Jun's heart, and it was also the first time he had truly examined Li Boyang's original preaching remarks.

"The 'breathing method' is a stepping stone, and its wonders are beyond your imagination."

Their gaze remained fixed on the narrow passage.

Huoji finally revealed a cold smile that was exactly the same as Wuzhiqi's.

"From this moment forward, order all members to force their way through that 'narrow passage'..."

"Don't waste those humans captured from the Ghost Kingdom. Even if it costs you your lives, you must fill in the 'Narrow Sky'!"

When he spoke his last words, Huoji's voice sounded unusually low.

At this moment, the way he looked at those shrimp soldiers, crab generals, giant warriors, and human prisoners was as if he were looking at a group of real ants.

No… that’s clearly the look of someone eyeing 'food'!

Realizing what the look in Mokuji's eyes meant, Ya Shuijun was so frightened that she immediately lowered her head and dared not look at him again.

But vaguely, Ya Shui Jun felt that he might have bet on the wrong horse this time.

This Crown Prince Wuzhiqi, a great demon who commands 100,000 naval troops—he must be hiding some even more terrifying secret.
