Chapter 772: Chapter 527: Tao Confirmation Myth! One Punch Annihilation!_2
...
[Discovered Immortal Law · Taoist Scripture, can be refined. Requires a thousand Merit Treasure Crystals. Refine?]
...
[Other Shore Energy Mechanism inheritance, no Merit Treasure Crystals required. Refine?]
...
[The words of Dao, the teachings of the Saints, all things are born of heaven and earth, Dao manifests naturally!]
[Prove the Myth, grasp Creation, ascend to the Other Shore!]
...
Qin Zheng hesitated not for a moment, silently chanting in his heart, "Refine!"
Hua!!
The characters floating between heaven and earth, at this moment, seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, surging swiftly into the ox cart behind the Green Bull.
Boom!!
The carriage exploded with a thunderous roar, and a figure radiating a faint clear light emerged. The Daoist characters floating in the air all poured into this figure’s body.
Moo!
The Green Bull let out a startled bellow.
The myriad beings, who had been immersed in their comprehension of the Daoist characters, were all abruptly awakened as the characters surged into a single individual. Shock and fury immediately filled their hearts.
The words of Dao, the teachings of the Saints, this was a fortune rare even once in tens of thousands of years, the greatest opportunity under the heavens—yet one individual sought to swallow it all. Such tyranny!
Roar!!
A resentful roar echoed from afar, and then a towering figure, holding a celestial jade pillar, shattered the void and appeared outside Hangu Pass.
Demonic energy so dense it seemed solid swept in all directions like a tornado, or hammered mercilessly like a great mallet at the figure seated in the carriage.
Yet, the arrival of the ape demon seemed to draw no notice from anyone else. The Saints continued their chant of the five thousand words of Dao. Guan Ling kept listening to the words of Dao with joy. The Green Bull still hung its head, staring at the ground.
"Dare to steal my fortune! Today, you must die!"
The ape demon also ignored everyone else, its crimson eyes fixed solely on the seated figure in the carriage. Letting loose a savage roar, it swung its celestial jade pillar, aiming to smash the carriage behind the Green Bull.
Rumble!!
With an earth-shaking blast, the carriage was reduced to ash in an instant.
But the ape demon showed no sign of relief. Instead, its expression grew even more violent as it swung its celestial jade pillar wildly, bellowing, "Hiding and sneaking—what kind of skill is that?!"
"Get out here now!!"
The instant its words ended, the purple clouds in the sky parted to reveal a colossal figure gazing down at the furious ape demon, as if peering at an ant.
"Is it not you who loves hiding the most?"
This gigantic figure spoke slowly, its voice echoing like thunder, reverberating across the world. The formless sound waves condensed in the ape demon’s ears like a peculiar scripture, causing the ape demon to collapse in agony, wailing miserably.
Rumble!
In the next moment, an enormous hand descended from the void, seizing the ape demon within its palm. With an encompassing grip, it refined and suppressed the creature.
Neigh!!
At that moment, another anomaly rose on the horizon. A sharp horse’s neigh resounded, and a radiant beam of light shot swiftly from beyond the heavens, piercing the colossal figure’s palm in the blink of an eye.
Spurt!
Blood poured like the heavenly river cascading into the mortal realm.
The ape demon seized this chance to struggle free from the colossal figure’s closing grip.
Yet in that moment.
"Heh."
With a light laugh, the gaping wound mended with astonishing speed. The Demon Horse, now transformed into a streak of light, charged once more at the colossal figure.
And this time, its target wasn’t the hand but the figure’s brow—aiming to pierce straight through the giant’s head!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of iron clashing rang out.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Chains of iron burst from the void, faster than the incoming streak of light, intercepting it and binding it tightly, leaving no room for escape.
The colossal figure extended its other hand, capturing the bound Demon Horse in its palm, similarly refining and suppressing it.
The Heart Ape! The Will Horse!
The two Great Demons that had just appeared were not true demons, but embodiments of the inner turmoil of Heart Ape and Will Horse!
No matter how high one’s Realm or how strong one’s power, the Heart Ape and Will Horse would inevitably resurge in the depths of the mind, lying dormant and waiting.
As one ascended to the Tao Realm, the Heart Ape and Will Horse would surface to disrupt the process, reducing the chance of a successful breakthrough!
The fortune bestowed by the Taiching Saint was not merely a complete Taoist Scripture, but also a means to eliminate all obstacles to ascending the Mythical Level!
Clarity dawned in Qin Zheng’s eyes.
When he spread his arms, the Heart Ape and Will Horse had vanished, and his Innate Spiritual Light became incomparably clear and pure.
"To ascend to the Myth... it is time."
Such thoughts filled Qin Zheng’s mind.
In the next moment.
Buzz!!
An overwhelming surge of power exploded from his body, propelling his Innate Spiritual Light to unparalleled heights.
"The Dao that can be spoken is not the eternal Dao..."
Meanwhile, the sound of Dao echoed within his Inner Heaven and Earth. The five thousand characters, like a great river, poured into the Tree of Dao, causing it to grow at an astonishing rate visible to the naked eye.
During the accumulation for the Great Luo Realm, the Tree of Dao had once grown to a hundred zhang, but on proving Chaos, it had shrunk to thirty-six zhang due to the concentration of the Dao Fruit.
Now, it grew again, more ferociously than ever, surpassing a hundred zhang in the blink of an eye. Then a thousand zhang, ten thousand zhang, as if it would pierce through the entirety of Inner Heaven and Earth!
Outside, the endless purple Qi in the sky condensed, then revealed a blood-red landscape.
The heavens turned red, casting the earth in crimson, as if heralding impending apocalypse, sending shivers through the hearts of all living creatures.
After conquering the Heart Ape and Will Horse, what awaited now were calamities and disasters!
Rumble!
Thunder roared in the heavens, and the earth shook incessantly.
Crack!
A bolt of blood-red heavenly lightning descended, gouging a massive abyss tens of thousands of zhang deep before Qin Zheng. Wisps of black Qi seeped up from the chasm.
The Pollution Qi expanded swiftly.
Qin Zheng’s gaze sharpened, his expression turning grave and serious.
To ascend to the Myth required weathering disasters; beyond the ordinary heavenly tribulations of proving the Dao, the most dire were calamities and catastrophes!
Previously, the invasion of the Heavenly Court might very well have been the calamities triggered by the ascensions of Daoxing Heavenly Venerate and Yang Jian to the Myth.
Later, the descent of the Heavenly Emperor’s Avatar could have likewise been stirred by the attempts of Emperor Zhenwu and others proving the Myth.
This phenomenon, absurd on the surface, was in fact governed by the interplay of Qi Mechanisms, subtly influencing all beings to act, leading to incomprehensible disasters.
Simply put, had Daoxing Heavenly Venerate and Yang Jian not ascended to the Myth, perhaps the Heavenly Court would never have considered war. Had Emperor Zhenwu and others not proven the Myth, the imprisoned Heavenly Emperor might not have dispatched his avatar.
Now, as disasters and catastrophes descended in this world, they would not threaten Qin Zheng in the outer realm once he emerged from here!
This was also part of the Saints’ bestowed fortune!
However, Qin Zheng had not anticipated that the calamity he would face in his ascension to Creation would be... pollution?
Was there pollution in this world?
As such thoughts arose in his mind.
Rumble!
Blood-red lightning continued to fall, the ground trembled incessantly, and chasms split open one after another. Torrents of Pollution Qi gushed from the depths.
Roar!!
When the Pollution Qi across the land had grown to unbearable density, mournful howls emerged from the depths of the abysses, one after the other, from every chasm.
Standing firm upon the earth, Qin Zheng withstood the bombardment of blood-red lightning while watching the changes within the abysses.
Meanwhile, within his body, an unprecedented transformation was taking place. With every breath, his power seemed to double!
A person of immense talent and profound foundation, ascending to the Myth, could rival Creation itself!
Qin Zheng, bearing the Three Pure Ones’ Dao and bolstered by the Merit Scroll along his journey, had accumulated a foundation so profound it transcended imagination!
Now, as he ascended to the Myth, his accumulated foundation transformed into his strength, reaching heights beyond compare!
Boom!!
Before him, an abyss trembled, and a black shadow surged forth from its depths, emanating overwhelming Pollution Qi and a mythical aura.
Yet Qin Zheng remained calm, neither summoning the Other Shore Divine Weapon nor unleashing any grand techniques. Instead, he simply stepped forward, forming a Punch Seal with one hand. Pulling it back first, he then thrust it forward with explosive force!
Crack!!
Rumble!!
The void shattered like spiderwebs struck by lightning!
The figure surging from the abyss erupted and disintegrated!
Though not yet a Myth... Qin Zheng slew a Myth with a single punch!
