Nikawa Okane was ecstatic. He had heard of it.

Most people could only get a Gold-grade cultivation technique.

However, he could comprehend a higher-level Platinum-grade cultivation technique.

This was enough to prove his strength.

“Master will be very happy. I can obtain a lot of benefits.”

With that in mind, he teleported out eagerly.

“Hmm? Someone’s coming out. It should be Zhou Han this time.”

Nie Tianchen was delighted and hurriedly got up to rush over.

But when he heard the clogs, his expression darkened.

His heart plummeted.

“Okane, how was it? Did it work?” Jiang Xiong asked anxiously.

He had some confidence in Nikawa Okane’s talent.

The second try was basically guaranteed to succeed.

“Master, I didn’t disappoint you! I succeeded!”

Nikawa Okane smiled calmly.

“Oh? What grade of cultivation technique is it?”

“I’m sorry that I only comprehended a Platinum-grade cultivation technique. I’m sorry for disappointing you, Master!”

Nikawa Okane immediately spoke in a humble-bragging manner.

However, there was no shame in his eyes.

“Good, very good, Platinum-grade. You’ve really made me proud.”

Jiang Xiong was overjoyed when he heard this.

This meant that although the other party’s aptitude was not top-notch, it was still first-rate.

He was still worth nurturing.

“How is Nie Tianchen? Are you panicking now?”

Jiang Xiong naturally wouldn’t let go of such a good opportunity to mock him.

“Forgive me for being blunt, but Zhou Han should have died in the visualization hall.”

Nikawa Okane joined them, speaking calmly.

The gloating in his eyes could not be concealed.

He had experienced the horror in the Visualization Hall.

That’s why he said it.

Even he could not last long, not to mention others.

Nie Tianchen’s face darkened. He wanted to retort, but he realized that he did not have the confidence.

He was beginning to wonder.

It had been more than three hours since Zhou Han entered.

This was indeed too long.

“What do you think? Why don’t we apply to the higher-ups now and go in to check on the situation?”

The Visualization Hall could only allow unawakened people to enter. If there was an emergency, the higher-ups had to apply.

Only after obtaining permission could he enter.

“Let’s wait and see! Half an hour. If they don’t come out in half an hour, we’ll apply!”

Nie Tianchen had no choice. He couldn’t keep waiting like this and give the final time limit.

“Alright, it doesn’t matter if you wait another half an hour. I’ll make you admit defeat!”

The smile on Jiang Xiong’s face became even smugger.

It was only half an hour. The final victory was still his.

As time passed, Nie Tianchen felt very tortured.

[Learning a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Current learning progress: 99%.]

‘Phew! Is it finally over?’

[You have successfully learned a Divine-grade cultivation technique. Please check it.]

The system’s voice was exceptionally pleasant.

Zhou Han immediately checked.

[Eternal Sword Body]

[Grade: Divine]

[Description: A Body Tempering Technique that is an advanced version of the Immaculate Sword Body. When cultivated to the extreme, the body can be eternal and break through the sky.]

[Skill 1: Sky Dust Tyrant Blood (Activate all the blood energy in your body. For 5 seconds, you will be in the Overlord Body state and have 90% damage reduction.)]

[Skill 2: Soul Devouring Hand (Locked. Will only be unlocked after reaching a certain level of proficiency in Skill 1.)]

[Skill 3: Locked]

After Zhou Han finished reading, he was stunned!

As expected of a Divine-grade skill, it did not make him wait for four hours in vain.

[Sky Dust Tyrant Blood] not only had the Overlord Body effect but also reduced damage by 90%.

This was equivalent to five seconds of invincibility.

Zhou Han did not hesitate to enhance it ten times.

Divine-grade cultivation techniques could be enhanced more times.

However, Zhou Han’s enhancement points were not enough.

For now, he would enhance it ten times!

[Sky Dust Tyrant Blood +10: Unleash all the blood energy in your body. For 10 minutes, you will be in the Overlord Body state, gain 90% damage reduction, and reflect 50% of the target’s damage (damage decreases with distance, the lowest is 30%).]

Awesome!

This was damage reduction and reflection.

There was no conflict too.

For example, an enemy’s skill damage was 100 points. Then, as long as he used this skill to attack Zhou Han, he himself would take 30 to 50 damage.

If the other party was an Assassin or Archer, the kind with high attack and low HP, as long as they dared to attack Zhou Han, the feeling would definitely be good.

“I wonder if I can comprehend the second cultivation technique!”

Zhou Han immediately thought of something and checked the Divine Seal Tablet.

[Detected that you have met the conditions for Awakening Mission 2. Please teleport out immediately. Otherwise, bear the consequences.]

Suddenly, a system warning sounded in his mind.

Zhou Han hurriedly retracted his thoughts since the system had said so.

As for the consequences, Zhou Han did not dare to try it easily.

Seeing that he could not find a loophole, there was no point in staying here.

Zhou Han directly activated the [Visualization Token] and teleported out.

When Zhou Han teleported out, the phantom in the dark appeared again.

As if conscious, he looked in the direction Zhou Han left thoughtfully.

“Not bad, junior. You actually obtained my true teachings!”

“This is the first time in ten thousand years.”

“Interesting. I look forward to meeting you. I hope you don’t disappoint me.”

With that, the phantom disappeared again.

…

“The time is up. Nie Tianchen, are you still not giving up? Zhou Han is already dead. Your Mountain Sea Seal is mine.”

“Senior, give up! Zhou Han’s aptitude is still too poor. He can’t compare to me. You’ve lost to my master.”

Jiang Xiong and Nikawa Okane spoke one after another.

Nie Tianchen was speechless.

“Yes! I lost! Let’s apply to check!”

As much as he hated to admit it, the truth was there.

More than four hours passed. Among the people who had awakened in the entire Sword God Hall, there had never been such a long time.

Usually, after entering and not coming out for two hours, he was basically dead.

This was not something Nie Tianchen could say casually.

It was analyzed through big data.

“Alright, collect Zhou Han’s corpse!”

Jiang Xiong suppressed his laughter and pretended to be solemn as he patted Nie Tianchen on the shoulder.

Suddenly, a white light shone and Zhou Han’s figure appeared.

“Who said I was dead?”

Zhou Han’s expression was a little ugly as he walked out of the white light.

He had no idea that there was a bet inside.

As soon as he came out, he heard someone say that he was dead.

This was completely not true.

“You—you actually got out alive?”

“How is that possible? No one has ever come out alive after staying in the Visualization Hall for more than two hours!”

“This doesn’t make sense! How on earth did you do it?”

Jiang Xiong’s face was filled with surprise, but then his expression turned ugly.

Zhou Han was not dead, which meant that he could not win the bet for the time being.
