Luo Sha’s crushing defeat caused the entire Talent Falling Battlefield to sink into an unprecedented silence.
Su Chun stood in the center of the battlefield.
Although her face was slightly pale, her heterochromic eyes remained bright as she scanned her surroundings.
She could clearly feel that the gazes around her, which were originally filled with contempt, curiosity, or a desire for entertainment, had now turned into shock and solemnity.
She seemed to enjoy this feeling.
This was a sensation she could never have experienced in her past life—the feeling of being in total control.
“Is there anyone else? Who is willing to come down and offer guidance?”
Seeing that none of those remnant souls were willing to bestow an opportunity upon her, Su Chun felt a bit displeased and continued her challenge.
Her voice was crisp and soft, but when it reached the ears of others, it carried an unquestionable sense of majesty.
However, there was no shortage of confident individuals in this place, and some still felt that Su Chun was merely relying on trickery.
“Hmph! Lady Tantai, you are merely relying on the strength of a magical treasure. What is there to be proud of when using an immortal artifact from a Heavenly Immortal of the Ancient Immortal Era against us?”
From the stands, a sinister voice rang out, filled with resentment.
Everyone immediately shifted their gaze.
The speaker was a young man completely shrouded in black robes.
His face was hidden, and one could only sense the cold, eerie aura emanating from him.
This sinister aura was different from that of the Shura Race.
It was more like an evil ghost from the netherworld.
“From the Underworld Clan?”
Someone recognized his identity.
The Underworld Clan was once a major clan in the Ancient Immortal Era, but unfortunately, in this era, their numbers had become extremely small.
Su Chun looked toward the source of the voice and smiled faintly.
“What do you mean by that, fellow cultivator? Do you intend to come down and give me some guidance as well?”
The black-robed youth snorted coldly but showed no intention of stepping onto the stage.
Instead, he said in a sarcastic tone, “We cultivators should stand on our own cultivation. What kind of skill is it to rely on external items?”
Su Chun quickly rolled her eyes.
She knew that people like this were either bitter because they couldn’t have what she had, or they were using reverse psychology with ulterior motives.
“External items are also a part of one’s strength. If one has the ability to use them, why shouldn’t they? If you possessed such a treasure, I assume you wouldn’t keep it hidden either, would you?”
Her words made sense.
If someone truly possessed a powerful treasure, how many would refuse to use it?
However, Su Chun did indeed want to test exactly how strong the power within her body was.
After a pause, she scanned the crowd and said, “I suppose many of you think I am relying on the power of the Divine Pen of Creation. Fine then. I will not use the pen now. I will use only my own strength to exchange pointers with you all. However, you are also forbidden from using treasures.”
“What? She won’t use the Divine Pen of Creation?”
“This Tantai Chun is truly confident, or should I say arrogant?”
The stands erupted into an uproar again, with discussions breaking out everywhere.
Even Tantai Qing, Luo Li, Luo Yu, and the others were startled.
Su Chun had never really used her own power before; one could even say she hadn’t learned much.
Luo Li looked at Tantai Qing with concern.
A flash of surprise crossed Tantai Qing’s eyes, but she quickly regained her confident smile.
“Don’t worry. Chun’er must have her own reasons.”
Although Su Chun didn’t know exactly what changes had occurred within her body, she felt that after being nourished by the Chaos Spring Water and the fusion of the Yin-Yang Bloodline, she had become exceptionally sensitive to the energy fluctuations of the world.
Earlier, during her battle with Luo Sha, she could even vaguely see the trajectory of the energy flow in his moves.
She felt that even without the Heavenly God Pen, she could use the power in her body to manifest the King’s Treasury.
She wanted to see if she could imitate those energy trajectories.
“Fellow cultivator, please come down. Let me see what true skill looks like without relying on external items.”
She looked directly at the black-robed youth.
The youth hadn’t expected Su Chun to call him out directly.
His expression shifted, and his eyes flickered with uncertainty.
His cultivation was at the peak of the Spirit Wheel Realm.
He considered his methods to be strong, but the power Su Chun had displayed with the Divine Pen of Creation earlier was too terrifying.
He wasn’t confident in winning at all.
Now that Su Chun said she wouldn’t use the pen, a glimmer of hope was ignited in his heart.
“Fine! Since Lady Tantai is so confident, I shall come and experience it for myself.”
With that, the black-robed youth’s figure flickered, appearing on the battlefield like a ghostly shadow.
“Ming Jian of the Underworld Clan.”
The youth announced his name.
“Tantai Chun of the Tantai Family.”
Su Chun also stated her identity and name.
Inside the black hood, a pair of glowing green eyes locked onto Su Chun.
“Nether Ghost Claw!”
Ming Jian hooked one hand into a claw.
Black mist swirled around it, carrying a bone-chilling aura of cold as it transformed into a ghostly hand that lunged toward Su Chun.
This claw contained a strange power of curses.
Once struck, not only would the physical body be corroded, but even the Divine Soul could be contaminated.
The moment the opponent released the move, Su Chun’s eyes narrowed.
She didn’t dodge or retreat.
Instead, she extended her right hand, curved her five fingers, and imitated the black-robed youth’s posture.
With a grab at the air, an even purer ghostly hand struck out toward the opponent’s attack.
“That’s also… the Nether Ghost Claw?”
The people in the stands were stunned.
The black-robed youth was also startled, but he quickly revealed a cruel smile.
“Imitation? You are a human. You think you can learn my Nether Ghost Claw? It is nothing more than a superficial imitation.”
However, in the next moment, a scene that left everyone speechless occurred.
The two claws collided, producing a dull thud.
The black-robed youth felt a force that was even more feminine and eerie than his own surge from the opponent’s claw.
It eroded his own Nether Ghost Claw power, leaving his arm numb.
“This… this is impossible! How could you know the Nether Ghost Claw?”
The black-robed youth staggered back several steps, crying out in shock.
The Nether Ghost Claw was a unique technique of the Underworld Clan that had never been shared with outsiders.
How could Su Chun learn it just by looking at it once?
Su Chun herself was a bit surprised.
She had only subconsciously imitated the trajectory of the opponent’s energy flow; she hadn’t expected it to actually work.
She could feel that the power within her body seemed capable of easily simulating any attribute of energy.
‘It seems my hunch was correct. The power within me is likely not simple at all.’
Su Chun had only been conducting an experiment just now, and now she could be certain.
“Nothing is impossible,” Su Chun said calmly.
She raised her left hand again, and a black gas claw shadow, almost identical to the one the black-robed youth had used, lunged out once more.
“Damn it! How is she using it more smoothly than I am?”
Alarmed and enraged, the black-robed youth hurriedly returned a claw strike to defend himself.
He discovered that although Su Chun was using the Nether Ghost Claw for the first time, she executed it with considerable proficiency, and its power seemed even stronger than his.
“Shadow Soul Lock!”
The black-robed youth roared and formed hand seals with both hands.
A dark wind billowed across the battlefield.
Countless ghostly shadows crawled out from the ground, emitting shrill shrieks as they coiled toward Su Chun, attempting to lock both her body and her Divine Soul.
Su Chun’s eyes were calm as she also quickly formed hand seals.
Her hand seal technique was exactly the same as the black-robed youth’s, performed almost in synchronization.
“The Shadow Soul Lock as well?”
Tantai Qing was dumbfounded in the stands.
‘What exactly is going on?’
She thought.
‘She learns it at a single glance. Why has my little sister suddenly become so bizarre?’
In front of Su Chun, countless ghostly shadows also came whistling out, colliding and entangling with the ones summoned by the black-robed youth.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
The ghostly shadows crashed into each other, producing muffled explosions before finally dissipating together.
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”
The black-robed youth had gone completely mad.
He felt like a clown performing his most prized secret techniques in front of Su Chun, only for her to copy them easily—and even do them better.
“What kind of monster are you?”
The youth acted frantically, his mental state on the verge of collapse.
The black mist within him surged violently, clearly preparing to unleash his ultimate trump card.
“Underworld Path: Myriad Ghosts Devouring Souls!”
He opened his mouth and spat out a clump of black mist as thick as ink.
It transformed in the air into a massive ghostly face with a gaping maw, emitting a terrifying suction force that made the soul tremble, intending to swallow Su Chun’s Divine Soul directly.
Su Chun’s eyes narrowed slightly.
She could feel the terror of this move.
However, she felt no fear.
The power within her body circulated, and she also opened her mouth to spit.
A clump of similarly thick black mist flew out, transforming into a massive ghostly face nearly identical to the one the youth had created, also opening its maw with a terrifying suction force.
*Boom!*
The two massive ghostly faces collided and tore at each other in mid-air, producing a deafening sound.
The surrounding space slightly distorted under the impact of this terrifying power.
Eventually, both ghostly faces exploded simultaneously.
The powerful shockwave spread in all directions, and the black-robed youth was sent flying instantly, unable to get back up.
“You… how exactly did you do it?”
After saying those words, he was teleported out.
Su Chun still wasn’t satisfied.
“Does anyone else want to come up and try?”
The stands were silent.
Tantai Qing was beaming with excitement on the high platform, grabbing the hands of Luo Li and Luo Yu.
“Did you see that? Did you see that? I told you our Chun’er was the best! What kind of talent is this?”
Luo Li and Luo Yu were also incredibly excited.
They felt proud of Su Chun’s strength and felt fortunate to have such a Husband.
To the side, Wang Xi was also so stunned by Su Chun’s overbearing ability that she couldn’t look away.
Afterward, others stepped onto the stage to challenge her.
These were all competitions involving various spells and techniques.
Aside from Bloodline Power, which Su Chun could not replicate, she could effortlessly master any other technique related to the energy of the world.
In truth, if they didn’t use these spells, Su Chun could only use the skills and techniques she had seen in her past life.
Therefore, she was actually fighting while simultaneously stealing the opponent’s moves.
Then, she used those stolen moves to attack the challengers.
It could be described as impossible to guard against.
“No, this is very wrong. Wang Yang, quick, go tell your eldest cousin to make sure little cousin Chun stops revealing her abilities.”
Wang Hao of the Wang Family seemed to have noticed something, so he hurried Wang Yang to find Tantai Qing.
Although Wang Yang didn’t know what was happening, he flew over and arrived beside Tantai Qing.
“Eldest Cousin, my brother wants you to stop Chun’er from continuing the challenge.”
Tantai Qing was taken aslant. Although she didn’t know what Wang Hao meant, she still nodded.
“Chun’er, that’s enough. Take a rest.”
Su Chun had just defeated another person and wanted to continue, but upon hearing her sister’s voice, she stopped.
