Chapter 656 A New Path to Power

Everyone relaxed slightly.

Cayden, captain of the Shadowwyrm Squad, looked at Riley and asked, “How did you end up here?”

Riley replied calmly, “We knew you were in this area. The situation along the outer perimeter is extremely serious. The God Eaters are controlling beasts and have surrounded the entire Solaria Mountains.

“If we want to leave, we’ll have to unite every available force and break through together. Otherwise, our chances are almost nonexistent.”

Cayden frowned. “You know what’s happening outside?”

Riley smiled bitterly. “I’ll explain that later.

“First, take everyone up Silverbowl Peak. It’ll be dark soon, and we need to find somewhere relatively safe to rest for the night.”

Cayden didn’t ask any more questions and nodded.

He gave the order.

“Head up Silverbowl Peak!”

The moment he finished speaking, Steven suddenly saw divine essence surging into Cayden’s body at an astonishing speed.

Through Steven’s vision, Cayden’s six Divine Sigils seemed to come alive, breathing in and out with a steady rhythm.

Every time one of the Divine Sigils flashed, it absorbed a considerable amount of divine

essence.

A sharp glint entered Steven’s eyes.

A breathing technique!

Cayden has mastered a breathing technique!

Steven’s gaze grew intense. This is the perfect opportunity!

But at that moment, the Six–Sigil Divine King leading another Awakened Squad also released similar waves of energy.

He was using a breathing technique too.

Steven was shocked.

He had mastered one, too.

Their rhythms were slightly different, but they absorbed roughly the same amount of divine essence. Their techniques were probably at a similar level.

Steven gave the captain of that Awakened Squad a long look.

He wasn’t surprised that Cayden had mastered a breathing technique.

However, he hadn’t expected the captain of that squad to possess one.

That man is probably far from ordinary.

However, this wasn’t the time to worry about that.

Golden light flashed from the Eye of Insight deep within Steven’s eyes.

He began examining the secrets of the breathing technique.

He looked at Cayden and saw every secret within the man’s body.

Every change that occurred while Cayden absorbed divine essence was perfectly clear.

At that moment, Cayden seemed to have transformed into an absorbent sponge.

Every inch of his flesh resembled a pore in that sponge, absorbing divine essence from the vast sea around him.

The Divine Sigils were the source of the pulling force.

The Divine Sigils acted like pumps, releasing tremendous power and connecting to every blood vessel in his body. Those vessels spread throughout his flesh and absorbed divine essence through every opening.

After drawing it into his body, the energy replenished the Divine Sigils.

This was how the breathing technique worked.

The Eye of Insight completely broke down every secret within it.

Steven was overjoyed.

I really can learn it just by watching!

Steven didn’t need to do anything deliberately.

Every secret of Cayden’s breathing technique became completely clear to him.

The true core of the technique was the user’s level of control over the power of the Divine Sigils.

The user had to make the Divine Sigils pulse in a unique rhythm, creating a force that drew power from the outside world.

Then the body had to guide the divine essence inside.

Next, it followed specific paths through the blood vessels and entered the Divine Sigils.

The differences between the two men’s breathing techniques could clearly be seen in these details.

However, the process wasn’t complete once the divine essence entered the Divine Sigils.

A breathing technique involved both inhaling and exhaling.

Just like ordinary breathing, the divine essence drawn into the body wasn’t completely pure. It contained traces of other types of energy.

Those impurities had to be expelled.

The path used to expel them was different from the path used to draw them in.

That was where the technique became truly intricate.

Once that was done, one complete breathing cycle was finished.

Then the process repeated.

Therefore, breathing techniques weren’t as simple as they appeared.

Ordinary people needed to practice them.

During this process, the divine essence would rush through pathways that had never carried such energy before.

It was a painful process.

Fortunately, that wasn’t a serious problem for Steven.

His body had already undergone the almost torturous tempering of the Crimson–Eyed Heavenfang.

He also possessed the Immortal Body beast–energy talent, so he had nothing to fear.

Only after memorizing the complete process did Steven withdraw his gaze.

A slight smile appeared on his lips.

I obtained a breathing technique just like that.

He looked around. The beasts behind them hadn’t rushed after them, almost as though they were deliberately allowing them to leave.

Steven looked at Riley. “Captain, I need to check on those people. If they’re heading directly toward Immortal Peak, they’ll run straight into the beasts. I have to warn them.”

When Riley remembered them, his expression tightened.

“I nearly forgot about that. Go quickly!”

Steven nodded.

He exchanged a glance with his teammates.

“Be careful. I’ll return as soon as possible.”

Alan, Bianca, and the others nodded slightly. Nothing more needed to be said.

However, Cayden’s group looked rather curious.
