Chapter 494: The Marvelous Structure

Genres:Martial Arts and Xianxia Last update:25/03/24 18:07:50
    In the quiet room.

    Chen Yun retrieved the Six Diversion Picture Scroll from the Tujia Magic Space.

    As he held the Six Diversion Picture Scroll in one hand, he pondered silently: "Now that I have reached the middle period of Xianjing, even though it looks like only hundreds of times more qi than the initial period of Xianjing in my body, the gold qi has completely disappeared and turned into purple qi. It seems that my real strength has increased far more than just hundreds of times."

    With such cultivation, I should be able to comprehend the "Killing" principle within the "Tiger Retreat" method.

    He had a vague feeling that today he would definitely be able to gain an incredible technique from it.

    As for what technique it is, he couldn't figure it out for now and would have to wait until he comprehended it.

    However, Chen Yun understood one thing: using such a powerful artifact as the Six Diversion Scroll, which required the middle period of the Xianjing realm to comprehend its laws, must possess unimaginable power.

    Alright, let's try to comprehend it.

    Thoughts, Chen Yun began to adjust and adapt himself to his current strength.

    He wanted to enter the process of comprehension in the best possible state, striving to gain insight all at once.

    He checked his current situation.

    He found that the Golden Dan, which had originally shrouded in a purple-gold aura, had completely turned into purple.

    As for his body, having completed the yin-yang refining of form, it seemed to be brimming with a sense of power as vast and mighty as shattering stars and splitting the sun.

    Chen Yun had a feeling that even without using the power of his Golden Dan, he could still, with his physical body, destroy a star system all at once... and even more.

    If he unleashed the full power of his Golden Dan, it would be even more terrifying.

    In the early stages of the Xianjing realm, he had already possessed the formidable power to annihilate a star system.

    Now that the qi has increased by hundreds of times and has turned from golden qi to purple qi.

    Chen Yun estimated that destroying a range of over one hundred light years would be easy for him.

    This is the lower limit.

    The upper limit is very hopeful to reach over one thousand light years.

    Of course, this is just my speculation.

    In reality, due to the limitations of the environment, he couldn't truly unleash such powerful energy.

    Otherwise, it would truly be catastrophic, destroying all the continents of the main world and rendering them into nothingness.

    "Unless there is a nearly collapsing micro-world where I can test my power..."

    Chen Yun shook his head.

    With his current strength, he could indeed find collapsing micro-worlds, but it would be too tiring to do so.

    It's not worth spending so much energy to test his strength.

    It is precisely because he knows how "ferocious" he is now that he instinctively became vigilant.

    Knowing that he cannot leak his power in a fight with others, he needs to concentrate it as much as possible.

    Otherwise, even if a fraction of the power leaks, it could lead to widespread devastation.

    That means he needs to pay attention to the control of his power.

    He pondered for a little over half an hour.

    Chen Yun confirmed that his state of adjustment was at its best.

    This was just like the previous few times, touching the white light of the Tiger Retreat with his consciousness.

    ...

    The same situation as before.

    As his consciousness touched the white light of the Tiger Retreat.

    Chen Yun immediately felt his spiritual consciousness being pulled into it.

    Very soon, he found the white light that belonged to the "Killing" law and began to comprehensively understand it.

    Innumerable white light points, vast and endless, fell into his consciousness.

    Chen Yun worked tirelessly, observing, trying to remember the law's structure.

    Very soon, he remembered most of the structure as he had done before.

    About ninety percent, something like that.

    However, the next thing that happened left people somewhat perplexed.

    Even though Chen Yun didn't feel exhausted this time, after he memorized ninety percent of the structure, he couldn't make any further progress.

    The remaining ten percent of the structure seemed to be shrouded in mist.

    Chen Yun could vaguely see it, but he couldn't make out the specific structure.

    Foggy and blurry, like seeing flowers through mist.

    "Hmm?" Chen Yun asked, puzzled, "Why can't I continue to comprehend the remaining structure?"

    Could it be that... there's some kind of mystery?

    He thought it might be the case and decided to try and figure it out.

    Chen Yun secretly thought, "Since it's like seeing flowers through mist, it must be some kind of force preventing me from continuing. As long as I dispel this force, I should be able to see clearly."

    He wasted no time, channeling his power and launching an attack on the "fog."

    One after another, streams of purple qi enveloped, colliding with the white light fog.

    Gradually, faint vibrations rose in his consciousness as if they were being stirred up.

    Chen Yun, while using his own power to bombard the fog, observed to see if this method was effective.

    At first, the power he summoned might not have been very strong, only managing to disperse a few bits of mist.

    Chen Yun gradually increased his power, and more and more mist was dispersed, revealing more and more structures.

    "Hmm, it really seems to work?"

    Feeling elated, he immediately intensified his efforts.

    Streams of purple qi continuously collided with the mist, causing the mist to billow and dissipate, like setting off fireworks.

    After some time, one percent of the structure was revealed again.

    Although it was only one percent, Chen Yun finally saw a possibility of fully comprehending this law. He worked even harder, pounding with even greater force.

    Two percent!

    Five percent!

    Nine percent!

    Soon, only one percent remained!

    Chen Yun, with one last burst of energy, called upon the vast amounts of energy within his body for a final assault.

    The purple qi, resembling a flooding tide, surged wave after wave, relentless and fierce, crashing against the white mist.

    Finally, even the remaining trace of white mist was dispersed.

    The complete structure of the "Killing" law suddenly appeared before his eyes.

    The surrounding area, as the white mist dissipated, seemed to become infinite void.

    In this boundless void, there was a bizarre shape, covered in innumerable "particles," like a network.

    The "net" extended countless "tentacles" to touch the void.

    Each of the particles on the net seemed very dim, as if they had exhausted their energy.

    Chen Yun looked at these "particles" in wonder and doubt.

    He had never imagined that the composition of this "Killing" law would be the various "Dao qi" that Xie Ziran had spoken to him about.

    Xie Ziran had once said that there were a total of sixty-two conventional "Dao qi" in the heavens and earth, along with ten peculiar "Primordial Dao qi."

    The sixty-two conventional "Dao qi" are the qi that constitute all things in the heavens and earth.

    The ten primordial Dao qi, combined in different ways, formed the "Heavens and Earth Laws," each containing incomparably powerful mystical force.

    Therefore, there are a total of nine billion kinds of supreme heavenly and earthly rules.

    When the ten primordial Dao qi and the sixty-two posterior Dao qi are combined, they can form a second-grade power of heavenly and earthly rules, that is, eighty-nine's boundless.

    Chen Yun remembered that Xie Ziran had once said something like this: If an ordinary person could comprehend one heavenly and earthly rule, they would be able to successfully attain enlightenment and become a immortal.

    Looking at the structure formed by the Dao qi that looked like a spider web, Chen Yun couldn't help but feel puzzled and wondered if this was indeed the secondary heavens and earthly rule that Xie Ziran had mentioned earlier.

    According to Xie Ziran's implication, if Chen Yun comprehended this second-grade law of heaven and earth, even though he is currently in the state of a mortal, he could instantly attain enlightenment and become an immortal.

    However, since he has already become an immortal, would he gain powerful strength from comprehending it?

    Chen Yun didn't know the specific details.

    He firmly memorized the structure of the law.

    Then his consciousness, like a receding tide, retreated back into his physical body.

    ...

    Chen Yun slowly opened his eyes, "I need to search for Primordial and Posterior Dao qi from the heavens and earth, then draw them into my body and condense them into the Killing Law, before I can use the power of the law."

    The sixty-two Posterior Dao qi are easy to find; they are all over the world.

    However, the Primordial Dao qi are particularly rare, and he didn't know where to find them.

    Chen Yun suddenly remembered that he had used Primordial Dao qi to manifest his Dao body.

    He pondered whether he could use the Primordial Dao qi that rose when he manifested his Dao body to condense the Killing Law.

    Thinking of this, Chen Yun immediately manifested the Thunder and Fire Dao body.

    A thunderous boom echoed as a heavy thunder reverberated from within him.

    Instantly, his body elongated with the wind, transforming into a terrifying and ferocious figure several meters tall with a blue face, sharp teeth, hair like cinnabar, and wings bearing both wind and thunder on his back.

    The powerful force surged, making Chen Yun feel that even against a person in the later stages of the "Realms of Man," he would not be at a disadvantage.

    "The Master once said to Zhang Tian Shi that the Dao body grows stronger with one's cultivation level."

    Chen Yun secretly pondered, "If, when I am in the mid-stage of the 'Realms of Man,' I manifest the Thunder and Fire Dao body and my power increases by dozens of times, I feel that I would not be at a disadvantage against someone in the later stage of the 'Realms of Man.'"

    Actually, he knew it was just an illusion.

    Judging by the increase in power from the early stage to the mid-stage of the 'Realms of Man.'

    The power of someone in the late stage of the 'Realms of Man' might be hundreds of times stronger than that of someone in the mid-stage.

    The increase in strength from the Thunder and Fire Dao body, even by tens of times, would not be enough to compete with someone in the later stage of the 'Realms of Man.'

    The reason for this illusion was entirely because the Thunder and Fire Dao body, with its three elements of wind, thunder, and fire, seemed to have become more powerful as he cultivated to the mid-stage of the 'Realms of Man.'

    Chen Yun believed that if a person in the late stage of cultivation was hit by his three elements of wind, thunder, and fire, they would certainly be unable to bear it.

    That's why he had this illusion.

    Of course, it's a rather pleasant thought.

    In reality, someone in the late stage of cultivation is too powerful.

    The possibility of him striking the three elements of wind, thunder, and fire at his opponent is minuscule.

    "However, the Thunder and Fire Dao body should have given me invincible power in the mid-stage of the 'Realms of Man'."

    Chen Yun was very satisfied with this.

    Manifesting the Thunder and Fire Dao body, he would be nearly unbeatable in the mid-stage of the 'Realms of Man.'

    That is already quite remarkable.

    "In addition, I still have the Golden Demon Dao body that hasn't been manifested yet."

    He couldn't help but remember the Golden Demon Dao body, which would undoubtedly enhance his power even further.

    Perhaps, by manifesting the Golden Demon Dao body, he would truly have the power to stand against someone in the later stage of the 'Realms of Man.'

    "Now isn't the time to think about these things, let's feel for the Primordial Dao qi."

    Chen Yun sensed the Primordial Dao qi diffusing throughout his body as his Dao body manifested.

    Chen Yun recalled the appearance of the Primordial Dao qi needed for the Killing Law while searching within his Dao body to see if there was any corresponding Primordial Dao qi present.

    Unfortunately, there was no corresponding Primordial Dao qi within the Thunder and Fire Dao body.

    With no choice but to revert back to his normal state, Chen Yun expressed his regret.

    Sitting there with a furrowed brow, Chen Yun said, "The Primordial Dao qi of the Thunder and Fire Dao body does not match the Killing Law. It seems I have to try and see if the Primordial Dao qi when manifesting the Golden Demon Dao body can be matched."

    If the Primordial Dao qi arising when manifesting the Golden Demon Dao body cannot match the Killing Law, then he can only gather corresponding Primordial Dao qi or else he won't be able to condense the power of the law.

    Chen Yun didn't hold out much hope.

    Because the Golden Demon Dao body, although different from the Thunder and Fire Dao body, has a similar power attribute.

    He estimated that the Primordial Dao qi composition would be similar.

    Although there is a high likelihood that he won't be able to condense the power of the Killing Law today, at least he has memorized its structure.

    As long as he finds the corresponding Primordial Dao qi in the future, he can still condense the power of the law.

    Therefore, he didn't feel disappointed or not disappointed in his mind.

    It would be best if he could condense it today.

    If he cannot condense it today, there will still be many opportunities in the future.

    Chen Yun's heart was very open.

    Chen Yun's figure gradually dispersed within the room, appearing on the grassland outside the city.

    Hmm, the size of the Golden Demon Dao body is too enormous.

    If manifested within the room, it would shake the entire Laojun Observatory.

    After all, it's over forty or fifty meters tall!

    ...

    On the grassland, it was the middle of the afternoon.

    The slightly warm sunlight of early summer fell on the vast greenery, refreshing and soothing the soul.

    Chen Yun observed his surroundings and confirmed that no one was around, then called out a "long" sound.

    Boom!

    A thunderous explosion erupted from within Chen Yun's body!

    The explosion was deafening.

    Chen Yun's body seemed to burst open instantly.

    An endless sea of purple and gold flames engulfed his original body, surging towards the sky in an instant.

    The moment the purple and gold flames rose, a powerful aura spread across the vast grassland.

    The entire world trembled violently.

    An enormous, eighteen-headed, twenty-four-armed golden demon, with a vertical eye in the center of each of its brow, and a pair of pure gold flames forming its wings, rose phoenix-like from the sea of fire.

    At first, this golden demon was only a few meters tall, but it grew as the wind rose, quickly becoming forty or fifty meters tall.

    Chen Yun controlled the flames' power to prevent any damage to the surroundings.

    It's his first time manifesting the Golden Demon Dao body after becoming an immortal.

    In an instant, Chen Yun felt terrifying power rolling around within his body.

    It seemed that with a single movement of his hand or foot, he could annihilate the entire human world.

    The overwhelming power made him deeply immersed.

    Chen Yun couldn't help but quietly reflect, "Even immortals cannot escape the indulgence of power. It seems my mind is not yet at peace, and I will need to find time to refine it further."

    He is now certain that when he manifests the Golden Demon Dao body, he should be able to hold his own against someone in the later stage of the 'Realms of Man'.

    This increase is far greater than that of the Thunder and Fire Dao body.

    "Let's not worry about whether we can beat someone in the later stage of the 'Realms of Man,' let's first see the situation of the Primordial Dao qi within our body."

    Chen Yun calmed his mind and began to sense the rising of the Primordial Dao qi within his body.

    Just looking is not as bad as it seems.

    After a look, he suddenly appeared delighted with a bright smile on his face!

    When manifesting the Golden Demon Dao body, there was indeed the Primordial Dao qi needed for the Killing Law within his body!

    So, he can condense the Killing Law after all!
