When King Xi heard Zhang Yu's words, he relaxed for a moment. Mister Tao was never one to exaggerate. If he said something clearly, then he would definitely be able to do it. King Xi said, "Then I'll leave everything to Mister Tao."
Zhang Yu looked outside. When the spiritual energy dissipated, the bit of Chaotic Qi also disappeared.
As long as there was a bit of Chaotic Qi in the world, then it would continue to descend. Now that even the body didn't exist, the connection was naturally severed.
However, this also allowed Yingxiong to fulfill his wish.
Shi Yanxin, Yao Zhenjun, and the others didn't know that the Yingxiong they saw before wasn't Yingxiong himself. It was a body that he refined to break through to the upper realm.
The Xuan Zun Seal was passed to him by Yingxiong before he ascended. After he saw it, he understood that the path that Yingxiong chose this time was to use the Great Chaos as a ladder to ascend. However, in order to avoid the corruption of the Great Chaos and completely break away from it, he used his own unique Dao to create a substitute body.
As long as this substitute body became the Xuan Zun first, then he could use the substitute body as a ladder to ascend and smoothly ascend to the upper realm.
However, if he followed this path directly, then he would also follow in the footsteps of the substitute body and be corrupted by the Great Chaos. Then, there would be no meaning in doing so.
Therefore, only by eliminating the substitute body that became the upper realm could he truly achieve something.
However, there was a contradiction here. If the substitute body became the Xuan Zun first, then it would be impossible for him to eliminate it if he wasn't in the upper realm. Therefore, if he wanted to eliminate the substitute body, he could only borrow the hands of others or let an external force eliminate it.
Of course, the substitute body was born out of the instinct to survive, so it was impossible for it to voluntarily throw away its life. Therefore, Yingxiong used his own Dao to once again reach an agreement with the substitute body.
That was to allow his substitute body to pursue his own needs. He would not force the substitute body to do so, but there were certain bottom lines and necessary matters that required his will to take precedence. At the same time, as the other party who abided by the rules, the substitute body was allowed to gradually awaken its own consciousness. In the end, it could even replace him.
This was a very bold and courageous method, because even if it was a reflection, if one was not careful, one might not be able to completely escape the corruption of the Great Chaos. There was a possibility that one might be replaced by another consciousness on Tianxia's side.
However, it was also because of this method that both sides had some leeway, making it possible for both sides to emerge as the final winners.
This was a battle between himself and himself.
In the beginning, the substitute body had the advantage because it was this body that had achieved Xuan Zun first, so it had the advantage. The longer it wandered outside, the more its self-awareness would awaken, and the more likely it was to replace the original body. Only when it encountered a reasonable reason, such as encountering an enemy that it had no choice but to fight, and the substitute body could still benefit after defeating the opponent, would the main consciousness be able to smoothly drive the substitute body to act.
This time, after Wang Duo was corrupted by the Qi of Chaos, if he did not decisively abandon his body, then the substitute body would be able to completely swallow it. After obtaining this great benefit, he might be able to awaken his own consciousness.
However, the substitute body did not possess all of Yingxiong's original memories and consciousness, because these belonged to him before he was turned into the host. It was the same, and he did not know the secrets of a higher level.
After the upper level Daoist cultivators or some Daoist cultivators sent their divine Qi to the void, even if their bodies were stolen, they could still return. Therefore, the remnant Qi of Chaos left behind by the substitute body was unable to corrupt Wang Duo as it wished. Instead, it was completely destroyed, to the extent that this body no longer existed.
There was actually a great deal of chance involved in this, but from another perspective, as long as Xuanxiu was fighting against the Hao Clan, then he would always meet a worthy opponent, so this seemed inevitable.
And all of this mysterious information was contained within that Hunzhang seal.
At the same time, Zhang Yu also discovered that there was still some leeway left on this seal. It was very likely that after the reflection body dissipated and the consciousness returned to Tianxia, Yingxiong did not plan to repeat this process, but instead, he planned to completely abandon the Great Chaos, and directly walk on the path of purifying the Hunzhang technique.
After understanding the train of thought here, he was also willing to create an opportunity for him. Now, it seemed that this matter was already done, and this person should already be walking on the true right path.
Xuanxiu's technique was definitely not the technique of one person, but of thousands of techniques. It was not the achievement of one person, but the achievement of thousands of people. He was very willing to see more of his fellow Daoists step into this scene, and push the Xuan technique upwards together with him.
His mind was turning here, but only a moment had passed outside. At this moment, the Qi on his body moved, and a cloud of Purple Cloud Sand spread outwards, filling the blue sky with Purple Cloud.
He did not forget about the existence of the "Upper Self", and using the Purple Cloud to cover heaven and earth, in addition to the spiritual barrier outside, was enough to isolate its senses.
At this moment, Shi Yanxin was paying attention to the outside, and he discovered that the remaining Qi activity of the enemy was awakening. It was also at this moment that a beam of spiritual light descended from the void, and within the flickering light, a human figure appeared within. When the light dissipated, the golden-armored person once again appeared outside the royal boat.
Wang Duo stretched his limbs, and his body was reconstructed, returning to the world. In his senses, this was not a resurrection, but rather, it was to make up for what was missing, because throughout the entire process, his consciousness was still there, and it was not interrupted because of this.
Moreover, after going through the cycle of breathing in and out, he felt that his connection with the Armor of Ultimate Benevolence had improved, and his aura was also stronger than before.
Previously, it was the armor that had lowered its posture to adapt, and now, it was him who had fully catered to the armor, or rather, he had become what the armor thought he was. More importantly, he had completely washed away the damage brought about by the Poison of the Netherworld. Even if there was more Poison of the Netherworld, he would not be afraid.
However, he still glanced outside warily. Seeing that the Daoist priest had not appeared again, he should have been killed by his attack. Thus, he no longer had any misgivings in his heart.
He looked at the royal boat, crossed his arms, and curled up his body. Then, spiritual light surged out, and a beam of spiritual light broke through the air, crashing into the spiritual barrier. With an unprecedented force of impact, it pierced through the body of the boat and continued to charge inwards, shattering everything in its path.
At this moment, Zhang Yu raised his eyes, raised his sleeve, and extended a finger. He did not seem to be in any position, nor did he seem to be activating his Enlightened Mana. It was just a simple movement, but it gave rise to the feeling that the power of the world had gathered at the tip of his finger.
When Wang Cuochong rushed over, he could clearly sense that this finger was pointing at him, but at this moment, he didn't feel anything. It was as if his mind had gone blank for a moment. The next moment, the finger gently touched the space between his eyebrows. He was a little confused and a little stunned. Then, like a bubble, he suddenly burst, leaving only spirals of spirit light floating in the air.
Shi Yanxin saw this very clearly from the side, and his eyes widened involuntarily.
Even though he could not see through the profoundness of this attack, it was not difficult for him to tell that the reason why Zhang Yu's finger did not have a world-shaking aura was because he did not use any excess. He could use the smallest amount of power to achieve the greatest effect.
What was contained in this was a great understanding of the Way, a grasp of power, and a deep understanding of the strength of his enemy. When all of this gathered together, it turned into a simple and stunning attack.
After a short while, the light in the air descended once more. The royal boat's figure in golden armor gathered once more. As only his physical body had been destroyed, his mind had not been damaged. As a result, the impression of being killed last time still remained in his mind. As his mind trembled, he also realized that he had encountered an opponent that was extremely difficult to contend against.
After realizing this, he was stimulated, and his Qi soared. Perhaps it was because he had returned once more and fulfilled the requirements of the Outer Armor of Ultimate Benevolence, but this time, his power actually rose to the level it had been when he first donned the outer armor in just a short moment.
It was also at that time that he had used his own power to block the attack of the ten Heavenly Stars of Profound Gold. Moreover, with a clench of his fist, he had forcefully crushed these stars.
His power was far greater than before. This gave him endless confidence. So what if his physical body had been destroyed? He could return every time, and he would be stronger each time!
His opponent would only become a whetstone for him, a stepping stone for him to ascend to a higher level!
He clenched his fists tightly. His crimson crystal eyes shone with a sharp light. The Qi on his body instantly soared into the air, straight into the clouds. Wrapped in his power that had risen to the peak, he charged towards Wang Zhou once more with an imposing manner that could smash through everything and break through all obstacles.
Zhang Yu looked at him coming from outside. This time, he only extended a finger and gently flicked it. A grain of Floating Purple Qi Gravel flew towards him. It cut open an even and thin streak of Purple Qi in the air.
When Wang Duo charged over, the streak of Purple Qi passed through his body without any obstruction, and then charged towards the boundless sky behind him. However, he did not seem to notice it. His expression did not change in the slightest as he swung his fist towards Zhang Yu!
When the fist was about to land in front of Zhang Yu, the tip of the fist seemed to crumble like gold foil. Bits and pieces separated from there, turning into nothingness. This scene then spread to his arm, shoulder, and body.
Zhang Yu only stood there and watched quietly. When Wang Duo was three feet away from him, his entire body had already been completely shattered. Only the remnant force of his forward momentum pushed the ashes that were like embers. They carried traces of spiritual light and danced around him.
At this moment, accompanied by a whistling sound, a gust of wind swept over, and the embers were also swept away.
Zhang Yu's expression was indifferent. Although his opponent had once again condensed his body, and his spiritual power had been pushed to a sufficiently high level, he still could not compare to him. Moreover, his transformation was too lacking.
He could rely on his extraordinary strength to suppress his peers, but when he encountered an opponent that he could not compare to in terms of transformation and strength, he would naturally be easily crushed.
And this battle would also end here. A divine light flashed in his eyes. In the next instant, he had already seen the place where the spirit had resided!
