The fourth form of the Divine Reaping Scythe was intended to be used by Heaven Tribulation cultivators, although John had forcefully managed to comprehend its initial stages due to his monstrous comprehension talent, as well as freakish essence dantian. However, this had resulted in him learning the attack slowly, all while not fully understanding the underlying fundamentals behind the attack.
He had only unleashed a handful of fourth form Divine Reaping Scythe's thus far, and had never stopped to inspect the attack. However, the lightning warrior's reaction had changed that, as John closely inspected the outcome of his attack for the first time. Much to his surprise, a spatial energy lingered at the site of the attack, blocking the healing abilities of the lightning warrior. The spatial energy separated the two halves of the arm, making it so that the warrior needed to erase its power before healing fully.
Since we haven't had an event in a while, I figured I would add one:
For every week the novel ends up in the top 100 power ranking for the next five weeks, I will dump an additional four chapters, up to twenty extra chapters for the event period (on top of the normal chapter schedule). The novel hasn't been in the top 100 in quite some time, so this is a bit of a stretch goal, but I believe its possible
The event period will start today, and end on June 19th.
Good Luck!
