The most difficult part of the Extreme Cosmic Finger was not the battle technique part, but the part that contained endless comprehension of the Rules. That part was simply too far away for the current Long Chen. He could only start with the battle technique. It was as if he had to first understand the form of the Extreme Cosmic Finger, and then finally understand the spirit of the Extreme Cosmic Finger.
Form and spirit were both indispensable. However, if there was really a difference in quality, the spirit was obviously more important. Without the spirit, the Extreme Cosmic Finger was just an ordinary battle technique. At most, it was similar to the Nine Dragons Scripture.
The truly outstanding part was the spirit that was displayed using the claws of the Void Cosmic Dragon.
Long Chen, who had sunk into a state of cultivation, was undoubtedly intoxicated. This was because the claws of the Void Cosmic Dragon had fused into his left index finger, so he could only use this finger to cultivate. As for his right hand, it was naturally used to hold the Scarlet Blood Firmament.
Long Chen was naturally intelligent, and he also had four-tenths of the Ancestral Dragon's blood essence. His perception was extraordinary. After ten days of pondering, Long Chen had already mastered the form of the Extreme Cosmic Finger. However, he still could not understand the spirit aspect. The Extreme Cosmic Finger described a mysterious realm. It felt like time was a reincarnation, and those historical figures existed at the same time as oneself. When everything expanded to the extreme, it would explode, and then go through the same reincarnation.
"What the hell is this …"
Long Chen felt a headache coming on. He was used to using slaughter to comprehend the Martial Dao. This was the style of the Primordial Blood Spirit Dragon. When he came into contact with the marvelous Dao of the Cosmic Infinity Dragon and the marvelous rules, it was obvious that he couldn't adapt to it for a while. It was obviously impossible for him to cultivate the Extreme Cosmic Finger like any other battle technique.
"It should be to change the way of thinking."
Long Chen continued to ponder.
"The meaning of this paragraph seems to be that everyone has their own time. Basically, everyone's time is the same. The only existence that can jump out of the cage of time is the Void Cosmic Dragon. Time can no longer restrict it. It is an existence without time."
This was the first time Long Chen had heard that time was actually a cage.
He had only thought that space was like a cage.
So, time is also like this.
"Since it jumped out of time, but it still died … Just what kind of existence could cause an existence that is not within the scope of time to die?"
Long Chen felt a little emotional. From these words, his view of the influence of time had greatly changed.
The Extreme Cosmic Finger couldn't allow Long Chen to jump out of time. However, it could allow him to slightly change the flow of time, allowing him to make time pass faster or slower than others. This kind of disorder didn't just bring about a difference in speed. It also brought about a kind of nomological power. This would allow the power of the Extreme Cosmic Finger to increase exponentially with the flow of time.
The change in time wasn't as simple as a change in speed. If it was just a change in speed, Long Chen's Golden Thunder Caged Dragon would be comparable to a Void Eon Dragon.
In truth, Time Reversal was a similar rule. However, Time Reversal existed within the Void Dragon Talisman. Long Chen had not comprehended it. He had only activated the Void Dragon Talisman to execute it.
As for the Extreme Cosmic Finger, he needed to make preliminary contact with such a thing.
On the path of cultivation, the four basic realms were the Dao of strength. One only needed to increase their strength. The three martial realms were the Martial Dao. At the two major Tribulation realms, one would comprehend the Heavenly Dao. Above the Heavenly Dao was the pinnacle of strength. That was the nomological power.
Long Chen knew that humans, demons, and even divine dragons would become the same existences after reaching the Nirvana Tribulation realm. The demons were above the Demon God realm. They were also at the Nirvana Tribulation realm. They also had to transcend the Nirvana Tribulation. The power in their bodies was also the Power of Nirvana, but it was slightly different from that of humans.
At the Tribulation realm, demons could forget about surviving if they didn't comprehend the Heavenly Dao.
Long Chen was almost close to that pinnacle level. The Extreme Cosmic Finger that he was currently cultivating was considered a very shallow nomological power. This was a power that directly bypassed the Heavenly Dao's nomological power. If he could master it, it would be of great help to him in the future.
Legend had it that even the Ancestral Dragon slowly grew under the Nirvana Tribulation's nomological power. Eventually, it became the pinnacle in the history of the Dragon Sacrificial Continent. This was also the reason why Long Chen could only transform into a dragon after reaching the Tribulation realm.
"Time … My own time."
Long Chen thought back to when he used Time Reversal. When he used Time Reversal once, he suddenly came to a realization. When he used Time Reversal, there seemed to be something in his body that was going backwards. This thing that was going backwards should be his own time.
This thing was unfathomable and disappeared after a while. Since ancient times, no one had been able to catch this thing. As for the one who could throw it out of his body, perhaps only the Void Eon Dragon existed.
Long Chen didn't need to catch it. He only needed to use a kind of transcendent spiritual power to slightly affect the trajectory of this thing. When its trajectory was slightly affected, Long Chen's time would change. At the same time, he could use the Extreme Cosmic Finger with the Void Eon Dragon's claw. This was probably the true essence of the Extreme Cosmic Finger.
When a martial artist reached the ninth level of the Divine Martial Realm, they would form the Nirvana Golden Wheel. They would have the power to shatter the void, thus achieving the effect of injuring the enemy. Obviously, time was above space. The Extreme Cosmic Finger was a kind of power that could distort time.
Long Chen practiced the Extreme Cosmic Finger again and again in this dark trial room. He didn't know the passage of time, nor did he know that Li Cang had been watching him like a tiger watching its prey, waiting for that moment to come. For the sake of that cold and arrogant beauty, he had already sharpened his knife to become a pig or a sheep …
These trials always made Long Chen feel that he was still lacking something. After a few days of pondering and using Time Reversal, he seemed to have some feeling. However, when he really used it, his mind often went blank.
"Perhaps, the stimulation that I need to use it will be better for me."
In the Supreme Trial Tower, there was a choice of battles. For convenience, Long Chen didn't move to the True Martial Hall. Moreover, there were so many people watching the True Martial Hall, so it was inconvenient to practice the Extreme Cosmic Finger. It was better to find a quiet opponent.
Long Chen chose a martial artist in the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm. This was the peak he could deal with. The Divine Essence of the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm was too strong and not easy to deal with.
A middle-aged martial artist was in the trial room, facing Long Chen.
"Isn't this the Evil Dragon Palace Master? I've heard a lot about you. I'm the Green Mountain Palace Master." The middle-aged man cupped his hands and said.
With a martial artist in the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm as the Palace Master, the Green Mountain Palace should be more powerful than the Evil Dragon Palace.
The other party was also looking for Long Chen to practice with. After exchanging greetings, the two of them started fighting. This time, Long Chen didn't take out the Bloody Desolation Technique. Instead, he practiced the Extreme Cosmic Finger over and over again. When he used the Extreme Cosmic Finger now, he almost couldn't bring out any spirit or the rules of time. There was only the power of the battle skill itself.
Hiss.
Without any warning, Long Chen poked out with his finger. A faint white circle condensed on his finger. It looked very ordinary, but only those who faced it would know how terrifying it was. The Green Mountain Palace Master was about to ask Long Chen why he didn't use the Bloody Desolation Technique. Now he understood. Long Chen's battle skill was also not bad.
Rip.
At this moment, it seemed like something was being torn apart by Long Chen.
However, the Green Mountain Palace Master didn't know what it was. He unleashed all his strength and also practiced the new battle skill he had learned. He fought with Long Chen. In fact, he was the same as Long Chen. He had also come here to practice his battle skills. Only martial artists in the sixth level of the Divine Martial Realm and above could enter the Supreme Trial Tower. Ordinary martial artists could only enter the Trial Tower of the Divine Martial Realm.
Long Chen executed the Extreme Cosmic Finger, which he was not very familiar with, and fought with his opponent. He seemed to understand a lot more than he did when he was pondering on his own. The things that he had accumulated in his mind seemed to loosen up a little. Long Chen was not very familiar with the Extreme Cosmic Finger.
"Fire Cloud Palm."
The Green Mountain Palace Master attacked Long Chen. He had been immersed in martial arts for thousands of years. When he used this eighth grade divine skill, the whole sky seemed to be on fire, pressing down on Long Chen.
The Fire Cloud Palm contained the power of the Dharma of Heaven. It formed a suppressive force that came from heaven and earth. Those who hadn't condensed the Dharma of Heaven couldn't resist this power at all.
At this moment, Long Chen, who was standing there in a daze, really felt a fatal threat.
"This won't do …" After this threat, Long Chen's body felt a great sense of crisis. This caused all the pores on his body to stand up as he stared at the descending Firecloud Palm.
"Extreme Cosmic Finger …" At that moment, Long Chen naturally stabbed his left index finger into the sky. At that moment, he felt the bones in his left hand tremble. An illusory dragon appeared, twisted, and disappeared into the flow of time.
Time was the years, it was a river.
Long Chen woke up from his state of chaos. The Extreme Cosmic Finger that he had hurriedly used actually sent the Green Mountain Palace Master flying. The Green Mountain Palace Master fell to the ground for a long time before he could get up. He looked at Long Chen with a miserable expression and said, "What a powerful battle technique. The explosive power knocked me over in an instant. I didn't even know what it was."
At that moment, Long Chen also didn't sense anything. He didn't know how this power was used. However, the good thing was that he felt like he was very close to the thing that existed in his body. If he was just a little closer, perhaps Long Chen would be able to change its trajectory slightly.
After bidding farewell to the Green Mountain Palace Master, Long Chen pondered for three days and three nights before choosing to fight again. One opponent after another was placed under his Extreme Cosmic Finger. Some were directly defeated by the Extreme Cosmic Finger's attack, while others were defeated by the Extreme Cosmic Finger's sudden and unstable attacks. The appearance of these attacks seemed to be a prank played by time and Long Chen.
