1569 Higher-level Exterminating Heart Technique
Chu Nan was stunned and nodded silently.
It had to be said that His Majesty Gremayne had pointed out a core problem that Chu Nan was most worried about.
Even if he could pass a hundred tests, as long as the Elder Council used this reason to reject him, he still could not completely absolve himself of suspicion. The Elder Council could still convict him in this way.
However, now that His Majesty Gremayne had pointed out this problem in public, could it be that… he had other thoughts?
“In that case, let’s not waste time and just use the Exterminating Heart Technique to test it,” His Majesty Gremayne continued, “As long as you can learn the Exterminating Heart Technique through your battle with me, it will prove that what you said previously is true. If not, you secretly learned it from Pamela.”
There was no doubt in His Majesty Gremayne’s words as if his words were an imperial edict.
Wait, he was His Majesty to begin with. His words were an imperial edict…
Chu Nan was stunned, “Your Majesty, can I be declared innocent as long as I pass your test? Princess Pamela is fine?”
“No.” His Majesty Gremayne shook his head, “I can only prove what you said. As for whether you’re convicted, it’s up to the Elder Council to decide. It has nothing to do with me.”
Chu Nan could not help but roll his eyes.
‘You’ve already said so much. Could it be that the Elder Council can come and pronounce me guilty after I prove myself?’
Wasn’t this slapping His Majesty’s face in public?
When he thought of this, Chu Nan became excited.
Although he did not know His Majesty Gremayne’s true thoughts, his current statement was a huge help to Chu Nan.
If he could pass His Majesty Gremayne’s test, it would be very difficult for the Elder Council to continue forcefully declaring him guilty. The suspicion of him secretly learning the Exterminating Heart Technique and the suspicion of Pamela secretly teaching him the Exterminating Heart Technique could be eliminated, and he would lose his greatest threat.
However…
“Your Majesty, how should I test the Exterminating Heart Technique?” Chu Nan spread out his hands and said helplessly, “It’s obvious that I’ve indeed grasped a portion of the characteristics of the Exterminating Heart Technique and can use a cultivation method equivalent to it. If I continue to test in this aspect, I won’t be able to test if I have such an ability, right?”
His Majesty Gremayne revealed a funny expression and shook his head.
“No, you underestimate the Exterminating Heart Technique. No matter if you learned it from Pamela or from other descendants of the royal family who participated in the Garden Hunting Assembly, it’s at most the third level. However, the true Exterminating Heart Technique has a total of nine levels. Could it be that you think… you can learn the true and complete Exterminating Heart Technique from them?”
“Ah?”
Chu Nan was immediately stunned.
Be it the royal family of Pamela or the other descendants of the royal family of Declan, the power of the Exterminating Heart Technique they used was already extremely extraordinary. The characteristics of the cultivation method were even more unique and could be said to be the strongest characteristic of all the cultivation methods Chu Nan knew.
However, such a powerful cultivation method was only a low-level cultivation method?
A piece of memory information suddenly flashed through Chu Nan’s powerful brain, causing him to recall that Prince Montique, Princess Pamela, and Princess Romanti had all mentioned that they had only learned the first few cultivation methods of the Exterminating Heart Technique and had yet to learn a high-level cultivation method.
At that time, Chu Nan thought that their cultivation strength was insufficient, so they naturally could not completely master the Exterminating Heart Technique. However, the characteristics of the Exterminating Heart Technique did not change, so he originally thought that since he had already grasped the characteristics of this cultivation method, he had basically grasped it.
However, now that His Majesty Gremayne said this, Chu Nan immediately discovered that he was indeed too naive.
The Exterminating Heart Technique was called the number one cultivation method in the Milky Way. How could it be as simple as he thought?
Seeing the change in Chu Nan’s expression before calming down, His Majesty Gremayne smiled and said, “How is it? Do you understand what I mean?”
Chu Nan slowly nodded, “Then, Your Majesty, do you plan to use a higher-level Exterminating Heart Technique to test me?”
“That’s right.”
His Majesty Gremayne suddenly put away the smile on his face and his expression became serious. An extremely powerful and shocking aura slowly emitted from his body, causing Chu Nan, who was standing in front of him, to instantly feel the terrifying feeling of a prehistoric beast standing in front of him.
“Since you’ve already learned the first three levels of the Exterminating Heart Technique from them, I’ll use the fourth level to fight you now. If you can learn it, you can pass my test. If not, I’ll punish you the most severely before the Elder Council. Now, let me ask you, do you… dare to accept this test?”
Chu Nan smiled and his Internal Breath slowly circulated. A powerful aura seeped out bit by bit. Although he was clearly inferior to His Majesty Gremayne, his aura was not much weaker.
“Why wouldn’t I dare? Please enlighten me, Your Majesty.”
“Very good.”
His Majesty Gremayne nodded and revealed an appreciative smile. Without any action, a large ball of black fog seeped out of the space around him. In the black fog, strands of cracks appeared out of thin air. Extremely violent and terrifying spatial energy instantly wreaked havoc in the entire space. As soon as it touched the black fog and cracks, it instantly calmed down and fused into the black fog, unable to sense it at all.
Chu Nan raised his eyebrows with uncontrollable shock in his eyes.
The fourth level of the Exterminating Heart Technique was actually directly used on space!
“I originally did not plan to test you like this, because only powerful martial artists who have grasped a certain amount of spatial perception and control can master the fourth level of the Exterminating Heart Technique. You’re only a low-level Heaven Control Martial Artist. Logically speaking, it’s impossible to master it.”
His Majesty Gremayne’s voice sounded through the black fog.
“However, I personally witnessed your battle with Tagro just now. I can confirm that you’re different from ordinary low-level Heaven Control Martial Artists. You’ve clearly grasped a good spatial perception and are very familiar with the alternate space. Then, with your ability, you should have a certain understanding of the fourth level cultivation method. As for whether you can learn it, it depends on whether your ability is really that strong.”
A large amount of violent spatial energy from the alternate space from the spatial crack continued to surge into the black fog and fuse with the black house. The black fog became thicker and thicker and had almost turned into a black cloud that pressed down on Chu Nan.
Although he had not truly come into contact with the black fog, Chu Nan could clearly sense the unique destructive intent brought about by the Exterminating Heart Technique in the space ahead.
Under the black fog, it was as if the entire space had completely obliterated and dissipated.
