Refining the Dao into Godhood: A Tale of the Jie Sect
Chapter 506 - 362: Reigning with Hands Off, Annihilation Sword Embryo
CHAPTER 506: CHAPTER 362: REIGNING WITH HANDS OFF, ANNIHILATION SWORD EMBRYO
To know, he achieved "Cause of All Fruits" over countless years and once wielded the Heavenly Dao, there are few things in the Primordial True Realm that can escape his gaze.
Even if it is an Innate Treasure or Chaos Spirit Root, it is difficult to withstand his scrutiny.
In the current Primordial world, the only thing he cannot see through is the "Pangu Temple." Eliminating all possibilities, what remains is the anomaly. He speculates that Fu Xi and others must be planning something with the Twelve Ancestor Witches.
Otherwise, those guys would not have died so straightforwardly, leaving no trace of cause and effect, and allowing the Demon Clan’s discourse power to fall into Kunpeng’s hands.
"Should we strike first?"
Tongtian Sect Master slowly opened his mouth, although their Dao injuries hadn’t fully recovered, with several Chaos Treasures, they have a significant advantage against the Twelve Ancestor Witches.
Moreover, if delayed, changes will arise. If ignored, the Witch Clan might at some point bring them a major threat like Luo Hou.
Experience brings wisdom.
The Three Pure Ones are people who value face, and they would never suffer the same loss twice!
"To be safe, let that guy Kunpeng probe the Witch Clan for us! I truly want to see what kind of medicine the Witch Clan’s gourd sells."
Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master had similar thoughts, but he was more cautious and was reluctant to have the Three Taoist Sects directly face the Twelve Ancestor Witches.
That’s also why he previously endorsed Kunpeng to become the new Heavenly Emperor of the Primordial!
"Good!"
Taiqing Master immediately nodded.
In the last calamity, almost perishing at the hands of Luo Hou, Taiqing also sought stability, first borrowing Kunpeng to test the Twelve Ancestor Witches’ methods.
He looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master and said: "To forge iron, one must be strong oneself; if you two can produce a few more Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals from your disciples, our plan will be more assured!"
Yuanshi Tianzun, upon hearing this, immediately laughed and said: "Rest assured, my disciples Guang Chengzi and Yu Ding are not far from proving the Dao of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal!"
Tongtian Sect Master also replied: "My disciples Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao, after the reshaping of Primordial, also have the qualifications to impact the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal!"
Being received as direct disciples, Guang Chengzi, Yu Ding, Qiong Xiao, and Bi Xiao naturally aren’t lacking in power; previously unable to prove the Dao due to foundation constraints, but with Primordial’s reshaping, the innate creatures all elevated their foundation, thus they naturally have some hope of proving the Dao!
During this period, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master have also been teaching diligently, hoping for more Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals in their respective Taoist orders.
Tongtian Sect Master even evolved his Great Dao himself, bestowing Yun Qing Dao Qi, Qiong Cang Dao Qi, and Bi Xia Dao Qi to the Three Xiaos, helping them consolidate their foundation and elevate their origin.
In fact, not only does the Witch Clan have the idea of evolving a second set of "Twelve Devastating Divine Slaughter Array," Tongtian Sect Master also has similar plans.
The Three Xiaos transformed together, their origins closely related, their situation is very similar to the Three Pure Ones, with Yun Xiao even achieving the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal Realm through Array Dao.
If both Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao can also prove the Primordial Dao and cooperate with the Divine Skills "One Xiao Transforms into Three Xiaos," they might evolve a second set of "Twelve Luo Tian Hongmeng Array," strengthening the Three Taoist Sects.
Of course, everything depends on individuals; the great Dao the Three Xiaos cultivate differs from the Three Pure Ones’ Dao, and may not evolve into the same great array.
However, with Yun Xiao cultivating Array Dao, if she uses Array Dao to connect the three Daos, its power should not lag much behind the "Twelve Luo Tian Hongmeng Array."
The Three Pure Ones, with a thought, sent messages to Jin Ling Saint Mother in the Ancient Starry Sky, letting her and Nanji Daoist lead the disciples of the Three Taoist Sects to collect Innate Evil Qi in Kunpeng’s name, thereby weakening the Witch Clan’s power and testing the Twelve Ancestor Witches’ attitude!
Evil Qi is something that aside from the Witch Clan, only the Asura Clan can barely refine and use, with no real benefit to Primordial Heaven and Earth.
Yet now, Jin Ling Saint Mother and others, under the guise of purifying Evil Qi, are subtly influencing the Witch Clan’s cultivation.
After all...
The Witch Clan has strong physical bodies but also requires Innate Evil Qi to continually temper them!
Purifying Evil Qi, indeed, is a good deed for Primordial Heaven and Earth but represents a constant reduction in cultivation resources for the Witch Clan.
"Damn it!"
The Twelve Ancestor Witches also noticed Heavenly Court’s actions, but cloaked in righteousness, the Witch Clan has no rightful grounds to directly confront Heavenly Court!
This is a blatant open scheme!
"Calm down!"
Upon hearing, Fu Xi immediately spoke: "Do not fall into their trap. Now all Daoist friends have not recovered from the Dao injuries from the last calamity. Act against Heavenly Court, and you’ll only fall into the trap of the Three Pure Ones and Taoism!"
Kunpeng, who is well versed in staying out of trouble, surely won’t directly offend the Witch Clan. This matter must be pushed by the Three Pure Ones in the background.
Yet now, whether it is the Three Pure Ones or the Twelve Ancestor Witches, both need time, whoever acts rashly falls into the other’s trap.
"How are we supposed to calm down?"
Zhu Rong angrily said: "Although we are Primordial Daluo Golden Immortals, we don’t need Innate Evil Qi, but for my Witch Clan sons’ daily cultivation, they cannot do without Innate Evil Qi; they are trying to sever my Witch Clan’s foundation!"
A race seeking to grow strong needs not only top battle power but also middle and bottom tier battle power, indispensable things indeed.
Zhu Rong naturally cannot sit back idly!
Fu Xi sighed: "Certainly, the Three Pure Ones’ plan verifies the Witch Clan’s seven-inch weakness! But Innate Evil Qi can be found in abundance from the Undying Volcano and Netherworld Blood Sea, besides there’s no lack of Chaos Evil Qi in Chaos! We can take turns collecting and refining from Chaos, and not necessarily directly wage war with Heavenly Court!"
"Even if war is necessary, wait until Emperor Jiang and other Daoist friends’ Dao injuries are healed and the second and third sets of Twelve Devastating Divine Slaughter Array are completed!"
"Don’t act impulsively!"
He understands the Witch Clan’s temperament, ferocious and fearless, but right now, only forbearance might create the possibility of defeating the Three Pure Ones and Taoism.
Thus, he is constantly seeking methods to help the Witch Clan overcome the current predicament!
"Fu Xi Daoist friend speaks correctly!"
Fortunately, in the Witch Clan, there are Zhu Jiuyin and Houtu, who also remain calm, and after pondering slightly, they recognize Fu Xi’s suggestion as correct.
With their intervention, Zhu Rong and others’ anger was forcibly suppressed.
...
Meanwhile, from the beginning of the era, Xuanqing’s refining of the Space-Time River and the era barriers has reached an extremely critical moment.
From the beginning of the era to before Primordial’s reshaping, the timelines have been fully covered by his Refining Dao Origin Power.
Considered as the initial refinement!
The era barrier at the beginning has shown signs of loosening under his relentless refinement, with the last era’s calamity breath slowly settling into his hands through the space-time origin point between the two Chaos Eras and gradually condensing into a sword embryo under the influence of Refining Dao Power.
Since the sword is an instrument of slaughter, coupled with his deep understanding of Sword Dao after joining Jie Sect, he conceived the idea of casting tribulation Qi into a sword embryo.
"This tribulation Qi, though merely possessing form, fabricating a truly fearsome treasure requires more Infinite Calamity Origin!"
Xuanqing sighed, the Refining Dao Power piercing through all realms, drawing the Infinite Calamity Origin of the previous era into the Inner Scenery Land.
Currently in his Inner Scenery Land, Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire intertwine, and under the influence of the Great Dao Laws forming a giant hammer, they simultaneously temper the sword embryo and refine his Dao.
Boom!
The great Dao roared, Three Thousand Great Dao ever birthing and perishing, creation and destruction coexisting, annihilation and creation intertwining, suddenly releasing endless divine light of the Great Dao.
The divine light shone immortally, falling upon the sword embryo, giving off a sense of unyielding endurance.
"I’ll call you Annihilation Sword Embryo!"
Although this sword embryo isn’t fully formed, in Xuanqing’s eyes, it has already evoked visions of the Great Dao trembling under the sword embryo.
This is an exceedingly fierce sword, as well as a destroyer supreme treasure; even the "Heavenly Creation Divine Axe" would have to temporarily retreat before this sword embryo.
