Proving Immortality Starting with Hextech Runes

"Fellow Daoist Xu, be careful!" Lin Miaoyin's voice was urgent.

"The backlash from the Echo Barrier will be amplified and replayed according to the caster's power level and nature, and it contains the impact of laws; it should not be tested lightly!"

Chen Xu steadied himself, but the shock of being hit by his own power many times over still left him feeling lingering fear.

This Echo Wall of Ten Thousand Laws was even more domineering and bizarre than he had anticipated.

"Thank you for the reminder, Steward Lin." Chen Xu's voice was deep, but his gaze remained fixed on the smooth Echo Wall of All Laws.

If his spiritual sense hadn't far surpassed that of others of the same level, he would probably have been severely injured just now.

"This wall is a wonder of nature, and cannot be broken by brute force."

Lin Miaoyin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was alright, but her worry had not lessened.

"The predecessors of the Illusionary Sound Sect once tried to use various musical rhythms and Daoist chants to induce it, hoping to gain its approval and glimpse the ancient imprint."

"But very few succeed, and most of them... suffer unimaginable backlash."

Her voice echoed in the vast, empty space, carrying a heavy, weighty quality that added to the unseen danger of the place.

The mirror-like surface of the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws was no longer just a spectacle in Chen Xu's eyes.

It's more like a lurking prehistoric beast; any provocation could provoke a thunderous counterattack.

Chen Xu took a deep breath, suppressing the lingering shockwaves in his mind.

"Backlash... several times over..." Chen Xu stared at the giant wall, but his eyes were not filled with fear; instead, they were filled with a desire to explore.

"Isn't this the perfect tempering furnace?"

Ordinary cultivators regard backlash as a raging flood or a ferocious beast, avoiding it at all costs.

But for Chen Xu, this contained a powerful impact of the laws of nature.

If this opportunity can be utilized, it will be a perfect chance to hone his spiritual consciousness and enable him to reach even greater heights.

His spiritual sense was already much stronger than his cultivation level.

If it can be further tempered by this wondrous object of nature, its resilience and sharpness will surely reach an unbelievable level.

"Fellow Daoist Lin." Chen Xu's voice was deep and firm, his gaze still fixed on the echo wall.

"I want to try again."

"Fellow Daoist Xu!" Lin Miaoyin exclaimed in surprise, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

"That backlash was already so dangerous, how... how are you going to deal with something even stronger?"

"It's alright." Chen Xu waved his hand.

"I know what I'm doing. Please step back, Manager Lin, and protect yourself."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Lin Miaoyin swallowed her words of dissuasion.

She retreated dozens of feet as instructed, her body shimmering with a clear light, ready to provide assistance at any moment.

Lin Miaoyin's gaze was fixed on Chen Xu and the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws.

Her heart was pounding, filled with worry for Chen Xu's safety, yet also with a hint of anticipation.

I want to see how this Fellow Daoist Xu, who has repeatedly created miracles, will deal with the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws, which even Nascent Soul cultivators are helpless against.

Chen Xu took a deep breath and focused his mind.

He slowly raised his right hand, and a wisp of pure blue water-based spiritual energy condensed at his fingertips.

"go."

He gave a low shout and flicked his fingertips.

That wisp of pale blue spiritual energy shot out like an arrow, silently striking the smooth, mirror-like wall.

hum...

The moment the beam of spiritual energy touched the wall, the entire Echo Wall of All Laws rippled violently, as if a boulder had been thrown into a calm lake.

The wisp of pale blue spiritual energy was instantly swallowed up.

Immediately afterwards, a tremendous force several times stronger, like a blue torrent bursting its banks, surged back with even greater speed and ferocity.

The space seemed to be compressed by this force, emitting a humming sound as if it could not bear the weight.

Lin Miaoyin's pupils contracted slightly. She could clearly feel the power contained in this attack, enough to severely injure or even kill most late-stage Core Formation cultivators.

Chen Xu's eyes were sharp. He did not dodge, nor did he even raise a spiritual energy shield.

Just as the blue torrent was about to engulf him, an "invisible shield" constructed purely of divine consciousness firmly protected him.

Boom!!!

The raging torrent of blue energy crashed violently into the invisible barrier in front of Chen Xu.

Chen Xu's body jolted violently, and his face turned deathly pale instantly.

However, he did not back down an inch.

The barrier formed by divine consciousness trembled violently under the onslaught of the violent backlash, as if it might collapse at any moment.

Chen Xu clenched his teeth so tightly that his gums bled. His mind felt as if it were being pierced repeatedly by millions of ice needles, and the intense pain almost made him faint.

But he endured it, relying on a tenacity far exceeding that of his peers.

And the ability to control one's divine sense, which allows one to maintain the existence of the barrier.

"roar!!!"

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the black shadow formed from the sound of annihilation suddenly let out a roar.

It seemed to sense Chen Xu's pain, and the chaotic will originating from the source showed faint signs of revival.

"Fellow Daoist Xu!"

Lin Miaoyin's voice was urgent. She saw that Chen Xu's face was getting paler and paler, and his breathing was becoming disordered, so she couldn't help but remind him again.

"If this continues, your consciousness will collapse!"

Chen Xu did not respond; his entire mind was immersed in his sea of ​​consciousness, feeling the violent backlash.

"Now!"

Chen Xu's heart stirred, and he began to actively guide the backlash.

He simultaneously pushed the "Mysterious Water Dragon-Opening Technique" and the "Pure Origin Technique" to their limits.

Pale blue light and cool glow intertwined and rose around him, and the remaining spiritual energy in his meridians surged toward his sea of ​​consciousness without regard for anything else.

"Give it to me... to take!"

Chen Xu's thoughts roared in his sea of ​​consciousness as he tried to transform the violent backlash into his own power.

However, that power was too violent for him to control at the moment.

Just when Chen Xu was about to give up, Qing Ling in the Beast Taming Space suddenly let out a soft shout.

"Senior brother, I'm here to help you!"

Within the Beast Taming Space, Qingling was surrounded by a bluish-gray yin wind, and a rhythm of [Suppressing Heavenly Sound] was condensed in her hand.

"town!"

She gave a soft shout, and the rhythm in her hands, connected through the soul imprint, instantly merged into Chen Xu's sea of ​​consciousness.

The rhythm of the [Suppressing Heavenly Sound] acted like a stabilizing needle, instantly calming the fluctuations in Chen Xu's sea of ​​consciousness.

At the same time, Qingling pushed the "Sound Wave Spirit Transformation Technique" to its limit and began to absorb the violent backlash power.

"Buzz..."

With Qingling's intervention, the violent torrent of blue energy began to calm down.

Guided by Qingling's [Suppressing Heavenly Sound] rhythm, they slowly merged into Chen Xu's sea of ​​consciousness.

Chen Xu's complexion gradually regained its rosy hue, and the excruciating pain in his sea of ​​consciousness gradually lessened.

He could clearly feel that his divine sense was growing at an astonishing rate.

The backlash did not destroy his consciousness; instead, it became nourishment for his growth.

"This...how is this possible?"

Lin Miaoyin's eyes widened; she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

Chen Xu was not only unharmed by the backlash of the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws, but he also used this power to enhance his divine sense.

This is absolutely unheard of!!

"call……"

After a long while, Chen Xu exhaled a long breath, slowly opened his eyes, and a glint of light flashed in them.

He could feel that his divine sense was at least twice as strong as before, and much more refined.

"Qingling, thank you so much..."

Chen Xu's thoughts echoed in the Beast Taming Space.

"You're too kind, senior brother. It's what I should do."

Qingling smiled slightly. Absorbing the backlash power just now not only helped Chen Xu stabilize his sea of ​​consciousness, but also deepened her understanding of the [Zhenyu Tianyin].

"Manager Lin, I'm alright now."

Chen Xu turned around and said to Lin Miaoyin.

Lin Miaoyin then came to her senses, her eyes filled with admiration as she looked at Chen Xu.

Chen Xu didn't explain further, turning his gaze back to the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws, a burning intensity flashing in his eyes.

He raised his right hand again, and a wisp of dark golden Daoist energy condensed at his fingertips.

This rhythm originates from a fragment of the Nine Abyss Soul-Suppressing Disc, carrying a suppressive power as heavy as a mountain.

"Fellow Daoist Xu!" Lin Miaoyin's heart jumped into her throat again.

The backlash from that spiritual energy was already so terrifying; the level of laws contained within this Daoist rhyme is far beyond what spiritual energy can compare to.

If the Echo Barrier amplifies it several times over, the consequences would be unimaginable.

She could even foresee the torrent of laws powerful enough to tear apart the souls of all Core Formation cultivators.

Chen Xu seemed not to hear, his entire mind focused on the dark gold dot at his fingertips.

hum...

This time, the Echo Wall of All Laws reacted completely differently, without an instant backlash of violent energy.

The wall surface first rippled violently with deep, dark gold ripples.

Immediately afterwards, the entire giant wall burst forth with an unprecedentedly brilliant light.

An indescribable, terrifying pressure descended instantly.

Heavy, ancient, and vast, as if the weight of the entire world had pressed down upon it.

Lin Miaoyin groaned and staggered backward. If she hadn't been prepared and used her full power to protect her mind, she would have been crushed instantly.

She stared in utter horror at the towering, radiant wall and the tiny yet resilient figure standing before it, like a rock.

At this moment, Chen Xu felt as if he were in the center of a storm of laws.

The Daoist aura of the Nine Abyss Soul-Suppressing Disc was amplified by the Echo Wall in an incomprehensible way.

The feedback was no longer a simple energy surge, but a massive torrent of complex laws and information that was directly poured into his soul.

"Ugh!!!" Chen Xu let out a suppressed roar, blood gushing from his seven orifices.

The Xuan Shui Qi Long Jue and Qing Yuan Jue were pushed to their limits in an attempt to dispel the immense pressure from the law level, but they were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, instantly overwhelmed.

"Annihilation!!"

Chen Xu's will roared from the depths of the Beast Taming Space.

Within the dark realm, the black altar trembled violently.

The enormous black shadow formed from the sound of annihilation suddenly surged, sensing the impending collapse of Chen Xu's divine soul.

They also felt the terrifying aura of law pouring in from the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws.

The Sound of Annihilation is currently unaware that Chen Xu is merely a one-time clone.

All it knew was that if Chen Xu died, the contract would backfire and the space would collapse, and it would be completely exposed to the torrent of laws, with unimaginable consequences!

"roar!!!"

A roar carrying an extreme will to destroy resounded from the Dark Realm.

The pitch-black, almost tangible sound waves were condensed and compressed relentlessly by the sound of annihilation.

The pitch-black, almost tangible sound waves were condensed and compressed relentlessly by the sound of annihilation.

Transforming into a pure destructive sonic wave, it surged out of the Beast Taming Space along the connection of the Soul Imprint, heading towards the torrent of laws pouring into Chen Xu's sea of ​​consciousness.

boom!!!

Chen Xu's body became the battlefield where two terrifying forces clashed.

The two forces collided, annihilated, and tore apart violently within Chen Xu's body.

"Pfft!" Chen Xu coughed up blood, his body instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and blood mist filled the air.

He felt like a fragile piece of porcelain, being violently struck by two enormous forces from within and without, about to be completely shattered.

But in this devastating collision, the destructive source of the sound of annihilation briefly "neutralized" the most violent part of the impact of the torrent of laws.

Although it still caused enormous damage, it bought Chen Xu's soul, which was on the verge of collapse, a chance to catch its breath.

"Azure Spirit! Heavenly Sound of Suppression, stabilize my sea of ​​consciousness! Sound of Annihilation, aid me in diverting my energy!"

Chen Xu's thoughts exploded like thunder in the Beast Taming Space.

Inside the Beast Taming Space, Qingling had been poised to act. Upon receiving the order, she formed hand seals without hesitation.

The bluish-gray yin wind around him intertwined with the spatial Dao patterns, instantly transforming into an extremely solid, semi-transparent sound field.

Firmly protect the core of Chen Xu's sea of ​​consciousness, isolating it from the external storms of laws.

At the same time, she fully activated the "Sound Wave Spirit Transformation Technique," attempting to guide and transform those relatively gentle fragments of law.

The Sound of Annihilation had no choice but to continue cooperating. It gathered its remaining power and transformed it into a pitch-black "sound blade," which precisely cut into the edge of the torrent of laws.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Beast Taming Space trembled violently, and its boundaries were shaken to the point of collapse.

With the Qingling stabilizing his core, Chen Xu finally managed to barely stabilize the collapse of his soul.

He didn't even have time to check his injuries, nor could he comprehend the profound mysteries of the laws he had glimpsed so briefly.

The backlash from the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws grew stronger with each wave, and the coordination of the Sound of Annihilation had reached its limit; any further lingering would surely lead to certain death.

He suddenly turned around, staggered, but burst out with speed far exceeding his limits, transforming into a bloody shadow and rushing towards the horrified Lin Miaoyin.

"Forest Steward! Let's go!!"

Lin Miaoyin was already terrified by the earth-shattering fluctuations of the laws and the spatial tremors.

Seeing Chen Xu covered in blood, how could he dare to hesitate any longer?

She gave a sharp shout, and a gentle sound wave enveloped Chen Xu as she crushed a jade talisman.

hum...

A small, pre-arranged teleportation portal lit up in front of the two of them.

This was given to Lin Miaoyin by Su Qingxian in advance to save her life, taking into account the dangers of the Echo Wall of Ten Thousand Laws.

"Quick!" Lin Miaoyin, carrying Chen Xu, plunged into the portal without hesitation.

The instant their figures disappeared, the vast light that had been activated on the Echo Wall of Myriad Laws swept across the spot where the two had just stood.

The space was distorted and collapsed, and it took a long time to recover...

The portal flashed, and in the next instant, Chen Xu and Lin Miaoyin tumbled awkwardly into a relatively safe area near the entrance to the Myriad Realms Cave.

Chen Xu could no longer hold on, his vision went black, and he completely lost consciousness.

Lin Miaoyin hurriedly took out several healing pills and stuffed them into Chen Xu's mouth, while simultaneously sending an urgent message to Su Qingxian.

"Master! The Echo Wall of Myriad Laws has mutated! Fellow Daoist Xu is critically injured and on the verge of death!"

A moment later, Su Qingxian appeared as if by teleportation. Seeing Chen Xu's miserable state, even she, with her Nascent Soul cultivation, gasped in shock.

She immediately took action, channeling her pure and powerful Nascent Soul spiritual energy into Chen Xu's body. Combined with the medicinal effects, she forcefully stabilized his body and soul, which were on the verge of collapse...
