"The foundation of our Peach God Sect, the Thousand Mile Peach Garden, has been destroyed. We have suffered heavy losses this time …"
Everything was calm. The Minister of War was taken care of and Kong was forced to retreat. Hong Yi and the rest returned to the Lingyun Pavilion. Everything was quiet, as though nothing had happened. There was only the endless peach forest, which was in a mess. In some places, there were large lakes, and the underground water was surging out, showing the intensity of the battle just now.
Luoyun looked at the destroyed peach garden and said.
"Compared to the Minister of War who was killed, this is nothing." When Hong Yi saw Luo Yun looking at him as she spoke, he suddenly felt his Taiji primordial spirit stir. There was actually a dense amount of love threads wrapping around him, much more than Yun Xiangxiang.
He couldn't help but be stunned. He knew that this Princess Zhennan, the scholarly Luoyun from five years ago, actually had a thread of love tied to his soul and Yuan Shen.
Other than that, among the girls present, Chan Yinsha was his wife. Their love was like a net, endless.
As for Dragon Lady Ao Luan, the Path Leader of the Heavenly Dragon Sect, she also had a thread of love. Just like Yun Xiangxiang, she also had feelings for him occasionally.
Jixiang, on the other hand, was naive and romantic with a hint of craftiness. There was no love at all.
Sky Snake King's eyes looked gentle but they were filled with craftiness. In his mind, there was only use, be used, and exchange of benefits. There was no love at all.
On the other hand, Mu The Younger and Chan Yinsha were the same. Their love threads were like a net, dense and intertwining.
The three little foxes were filled with a strong sense of attachment. There was no love between a man and a woman.
As for the large golden spider, his gaze was filled with evil energy. He ate, drank, and played around, making a scene. He had the head of a tiger and the brain of a tiger, drilling here and there. He wanted to bully Jixiang Tian, but he didn't dare. He didn't even know what the feelings between men and women were.
"Dao is emotionless but there is love. Love Thread Seal!"
With a thought, he sealed all of these women's emotions. Immediately, his primordial spirit became pure and ethereal, untainted by the world. He felt like a blazing sun in a clear sky, pure and endless.
It's no wonder the Supreme Oblivion Realm is so alluring. So it turns out that sealing the threads of emotion is equivalent to removing the shackles on one's body, removing the shackles that bind one's body, freeing one's mind, and completely connecting with the Heavenly Dao …
In an instant, he sensed the sentiments of the girls present. Hong Yi had a deeper understanding of the heartless nature of the Taishang Dao and the sentimental nature of the Longevity Dao.
An inexplicable feeling rippled in his heart. This feeling couldn't be put into words. It felt like he was comprehending something, but it wasn't. It hung there emptily.
In the end, Hong Yi stopped thinking about it and focused on refining the Taiji Lightning Pool.
There were too many benefits this time. In fact, compared to obtaining the Eternal Monument, killing the Golden Immortal Primordial Spirit, and fighting the Monogatari, the benefits were much greater.
He had been baiting the entire time, preparing to catch the monkey, Sky. However, he did not manage to catch Sky. Instead, he had caught a fish that was even fatter than Sky. It was simply a whale with so much oil that it was nauseating.
The Eternal War Banner had completely surpassed the Saha Treasured Tree, the Jambu Formation, and the Ancestral Dragon. It had become the number one treasure apart from the three kings of the divine weapons.
Below the three kings of the divine weapons, the Eternal War Banner was the strongest.
Now that Hong Yi wanted to use it to completely repair the Taiji Lightning Pool, he wondered what kind of earth-shattering treasure it would create. After the Taiji Lightning Pool merged with the Eternal War Banner, no one knew what kind of earth-shattering transformation it would produce.
Hong Yi calmed the various speculations in his mind. Using the All Saints Hall and the Eternal Monument to envelop the two balls of Essence Qi, he began to truly refine them.
"Space-time translocation, Yin and Yang mismatch, Eight Trigrams River Diagram, mountains and rivers, rivers and suns, lakes and seas … War and chaos, order and civilization … Indestructible and everlasting, neither dead nor alive … Endless life and death, transform, transform, merge … Infinite Taiji, merge!"
Under Hong Yi's hand seals and powerful thoughts, the balls of Essence Qi gurgled and squirmed, once again forming a Taiji Lightning Pool …
However, this Taiji Lightning Pool was very different from the previous one. It wasn't just a different shape, but a different concept.
…
The vast pool of lightning began to condense into an embryonic form, and the aura of "war" and "chaos" rippled everywhere. Within the originally calm pool of lightning, all sorts of battles were being waged at all times, demonstrating the true essence of endless war that had existed since the creation of the world.
The Essence Qi of the Taiji Lightning Pool fused with the Immortal War Flag and brewed within the lightning ripples, as if a peerless divine fetus was being nurtured within.
Originally, the Taiji Lightning Pool could give birth to something like the Taiji Lightning Dragon that Monogatari created from the void. However, it seemed like the Taiji Lightning Dragon could no longer be born. The aura of war on the Immortal War Flag had completely disintegrated the birth of the Taiji Lightning Dragon.
He wanted to give birth to an even more powerful being.
The guardian of the lightning pool that was born would be countless times more powerful than the Taiji Lightning Dragon! When it came to puppets, the most powerful would still be the Aragami that Young Master Xu created. This Aragami had more power and combat ability than the Creators.
Even if Monogatari's Nine Flame Dragon and Hong Yi's Taiji Lightning Dragon worked together, they still wouldn't be a match for the Aragami. In fact, the Aragami could even be killed with one punch.
However, now that the Invincible War Banner and the Tai Chi Lightning Pool had merged, a guardian was about to be born in the pool. The guardian's aura was much more powerful and terrifying than the Aragami. It was almost on par with the Formidable Godly King that was sealed in the Everlasting Monument.
How powerful would the Immortal War Flag and the Minister of War be? How powerful would the Essence Qi of the Taiji Lightning Pool be?
Vast, vast, vast, vast …
A wave of primordial waves and sounds came from the newly condensed Taiji Lightning Pool. Finally, an existence that looked like a human, a god, a demon, a buddha, and a sage slowly rose up.
This god, celestial lord, and sage body contained the Vairocana Buddha, Amitabha, Present Tathagata, God of War, Divine Firmament Dao Lord, Aragami, Xuantian Dao Lord, Primal Yang Dao Lord, Righteous One Dao Lord, Mighty Miracle God, Formidable Godly King, and so on. The amalgamation of gods that Hong Yi had seen before seemed to contain all the gods, yet they were extremely harmonious.
This unknown existence appeared in the lightning pool. It wore a loose robe and held an artifact in its hand. This artifact looked like a sword, an axe, a hook, a chariot, and a dharma wheel … It was the oddly-shaped weapon on the Immortal War Flag that represented the true essence of war.
When this unknown existence appeared, the entire Lightning Pool started to tremble.
At the same time, Sky Snake King, Chan Yinsha, Luo Yun, Little Fox, Arachnida Gigantea, and the others all felt a tremendous power. There was simply no way they could resist it.
In front of this unknown existence, any power that opposed him was like an ant against an ocean. A single wave would annihilate everything, a calamity of annihilation.
However, this power did not contain any danger, nor did it cause any harm. Instead, it gave off an extremely safe feeling. It was the feeling of protection.
Simply put, the Taiji Lightning Pool had fused with the Immortal War Flag. Not only was it successfully repaired, but it had also given birth to a powerful lightning pool spirit, the guardian of the lightning pool.
It was no longer a weak existence like the Taiji Lightning Dragon, but something even stronger than the Aragami.
However, it did not have its own consciousness. It was born of war, lightning, and Taiji, and was closely related to Hong Yi. In fact, it was a manifestation of Hong Yi's will. It was an avatar of Hong Yi, a second primordial spirit.
Zzt zzt, zzt zzt, zzt zzt zzt.
When this existence opened its eyes, a passageway appeared above the lightning pool. Many lightning waves tore through the void and fell into the lightning pool.
The absorption capacity of the lightning pool was double that of before.
A huge amount of life energy spread out from the Lightning Pool. It actually condensed into strands of sky-blue mist that looked like a Tianyuan God Pill. This mist condensed into drops of dew in the palace.
"Heavenly Dew Essence!"
Jitian shrieked, opening his mouth and sucking in all of the dew.
"The earth has milk, and the sky has heavenly dew. Milk is hard to come by, and heavenly dew is even harder. Heavenly dew is formed when the nine lightning tribulations combine, and the life energy seeps out, creating dew that evaporates in an instant. Only a few Great Sages and experts with nine tribulations can harvest it. The medicinal concoction for the Heavenly Essence Pill is concocted from heavenly dew, and it's impossible to concoct a Heavenly Essence Pill without it. "
"The Immortal War Flag and the essence of the Taiji Lightning Pool have combined to form a new taiji lightning pool. With the birth of a guardian spirit, its power has skyrocketed, allowing it to control the nine lightning tribulations of heaven and earth. Of course, it can also condense the lightning life energy into heavenly dew essence."
Hong Yi had created the lightning pool himself, so he was very familiar with it.
In fact, the entire lightning pool was like his body.
"Now, if my body is destroyed, I can rely on the lightning pool to be reborn. The lightning pool spirit is my body, a new body. If I'm not wrong, Monogatari's Sun-Moon Cosmic Furnace isn't actually a pill furnace, but a body he prepared for himself. The reason he was able to cultivate to the Flesh Derivation realm is likely because he obtained the secrets of all the acupoints in Sky Beyond Heaven, and then refined the Sun-Moon Cosmic Furnace again, using his body as a furnace. Furnace, furnace … man is man, and man is furnace. To refine the Longevity Pill … my guess is correct. "
Hong Yi suddenly understood why Meng Shen-Ji's fleshly body had been refined to the extent of Flesh Derivation.
He must have used the Sun-Moon Cosmic Furnace as his own body, fusing with it. One had to know that the Sun-Moon Cosmic Furnace contained the mysteries of the acupoints, and was very much like a person's body.
Otherwise, no matter how strong Monogatari was, his body wasn't a divine stone or a spirit embryo. How could it be Flesh Derivation? He couldn't even reach the peak of Human Immortal Realm.
"The protector of this lightning pool is also your body? However, you haven't comprehended the complete acupoints. Although your body is strong, it's still flawed. "Jixiang said.
"I obtained the memories of the War Minister. He ruled over war and martial arts, so he definitely has many acupoints. I'm afraid there are really 1,296 of them." Hong Yi smiled, "I have a divine stone spirit embryo, and the protector of this lightning pool is just a powerful God of Protectors."
"What should I call this God of Protectors? Indestructible War Flag, Taiji Lightning Pool's protector, Lightning Imperishable? "Jixiang looked at the unknown existence above the lightning pool and asked.
"Lightning Imperishable is too domineering, why don't we call him Emperor Taiji." Chan Yinsha interrupted.
"Emperor Chang Sheng, number one in the primordial era. The protector of this lightning pool should be called Emperor Taiji. That is indeed a good name." Dragon Lady Ao Luan said.
"Emperor Taiji … Emperor, Emperor … This name doesn't match the human dao. Dao is supreme, and Jun is the noble Dao. It's better to call him Dao Lord. Taiji is the beginning of one yuan, the beginning of all phenomena. The protector of this lightning pool should be called Primordial Dao Lord. "Hong Yi said.
"Primordial Dao Lord …" Everyone looked at the protector of the lightning pool and nodded.
"Monogatari, Monogatari, when we meet again, I want to see how strong my newly condensed Taiji Lightning Pool and protector, Primordial Dao Lord is." Hong Yi used a dao technique and placed the entire lightning pool back into the core of the All Saints Hall's array formation. With a slight tremor, the entire hall was completely solidified.
As for Primordial Dao Lord, he hid within the lightning pool and did not come out. However, everyone knew that the moment this Dao Lord came out, he would unleash earth-shattering means.
"This Lightning Pool has finally been condensed. It's improved a step further." Hong Yi took a deep breath. "Next, let's see how many acupoints there are in the War Minister's memories. If I can find 1,296 acupoints, my body will probably be able to shatter space immediately."
