364: Chapter 88 Divine Embryo in Charge_2 364: Chapter 88 Divine Embryo in Charge_2 “Such a fierce battle is indeed interesting.”
“Two individuals, possessed of boundless talents, restrained each other, neither daring to strike with full force.”
Xie Xuanyi silently watched the two top practitioners, employing their Divine Skills against one another.
After a long period of tranquility, his Heart Lake suddenly trembled slightly.
In his previous life, Xie Xuanyi was only a step away from reaching the Yang God Realm.
In that life, although it was a golden age, he stirred up heaven and earth dramatically, but ultimately, he had not touched the level of the Yang God.
A realization of that peak state.
Xie Xuanyi always felt something was missing…
The Sword Qi in Da Sui Sword Palace’s back mountain Grotto Heaven was indeed fierce and beneficial.
But after all, they were the legacy of the deceased.
A true strongman emerges from bloodshed.
A Dao bears fruit after a hundred battles, and a Golden Body is forged in a sea of blood.
Had it not been for the peaceful era twenty years ago, but instead, if he had encountered the Battle of Poison or other turmoils like the Great Chu battle, Xie Xuanyi might have advanced faster and ascended to the mountain peak by achieving the Yang God promotion.
“Golden Body, Grotto-Heaven, Techniques, Divine Skills, Dao…”
Xie Xuanyi murmured softly.
Although the two Yang Gods restrained themselves in this battle, a variety of Divine Skills were ceaselessly displayed.
Everyone desires eternal life.
To ascertain the Yang God is to have several hundred years of lifespan.
Theoretically, the Yang God Realm transcends the mundane, a pity that employing any form of Dao or Technique involves mortal dust, and anyone engaging in the mortal world will have their lifespan reduced.
That battle of long ago.
Every participant in the Yang God Realm suffered greatly in terms of Primordial Energy, and even if they didn’t fall, calculating their lifespan, they likely lived several scores less.
At this moment.
This battle itself is a “worldly” battle involving two Yang Gods, an entanglement of karma.
The Martial Hermit confronted his enemies with this Golden Body.
This was the highest realm of physical Divine Embryo witnessed by Xie Xuanyi.
This Golden Body, displaying three heads and six arms, still had fresh Sword Qi lingering about the arms…
Likely left by Zhao Chunyang’s last visit to the Imperial City.
A true genius, even in defeat, could still find enlightenment.
This Sword Qi.
Now it had become part of the Martial Hermit’s Golden Body!
On the other hand, Peacock Venerable, in order to “honor a commitment” and also to retire sooner, displayed many magic artifacts.
The Five-Colored Dao covered the sky, and devices like the magic staff, Vajra Pestle, and Lotus Seat wrapped up this peacock dharma, momentarily magnificent and radiant with Buddha’s light.
“A thousand years ago, the Demon Country also had a Buddhist Sect that established itself and spread teachings.”
Lu Yuzhen remarked softly, “It’s just a pity, they perished in a moment.
Rumor has it that the destruction of the Buddhist Sect in the Demon Country also left behind many legacies.
It seems that this Peacock not only acquired Mo Zhen’s treasures but also some other fortunes.”
Xie Xuanyi remained silent.
In his eyes.
The sounds of the entire world seemed to disappear, and the confrontation between the two Yang God Venerables occupied all his attention.
Every punch thrown by the Martial Hermit’s Golden Body.
Each Dao rule displayed by the Peacock Venerable.
Repeated in Xie Xuanyi’s Heart Lake, settling, reversing…
repeatedly like this.
A wisp of Sword Qi was slowly brewing in the Heart Lake.
His black robe billowing.
Xie Xuanyi stood entranced, his whole aura sinking into a profound stillness.
The fortunes of Xuanshui Cave Heaven in the Lotus River.
Had not moved him.
But this battle…
had plunged him into a state of sudden enlightenment.
“Indeed, a Sword Immortal appearance witnessed once in a thousand years, this foundation of Dao is truly extraordinary.
“Da Sui Sword Palace has cultivated for a thousand years, just to witness such a stunning prodigy.”
Lu Yuzhen looked at the young man in black beside him and exclaimed, “It was just by briefly showing you the Yang Gods in combat that you entered meditation.
If later you see the Great Yue’s battle against the dragon, perhaps you’ll gain even further enlightenment…
It seems you don’t need to do anything; just stirring up more events and watching a few more divine battles will let you break through?
If given another sixty years, who in the world could stand against you?!”
Though he said this.
Lord Lu didn’t interrupt Xie Xuanyi’s contemplation.
Seeing Xie Xuanyi’s enlightenment brought a smile to his face, both gaiety and approval evident.
The battle did not last long.
After the Da Chu Cloud Ship left the Lilan Mountain Range, the Martial Hermit voluntarily retracted his Golden Body.
He punched and shattered the Five-Colored Dao and then stepped back.
Seeing this, Peacock Venerable did not pursue him.
Both men tacitly created distance between them and then departed towards the north and south respectively.
Rustling sound,
the heavy snow whirled around, and so did the scraps of paper.
From within his Lifebound Cave Heaven, Lord Lu took out a snow-white cloak and considerately draped it over Xie Xuanyi.
He stood with his hands behind his back, patiently waiting.
The comprehension session did not last very long.
An hour later,
on the mountain peak covered in snow, Xie Xuanyi, who had been submerged in silence, slowly awoke.
He shook the snow off his shoulders and noticed the warm cloak.
“Rest assured.
Only an hour has passed.”
Lu Yuzhen said, “I told you, didn’t I?
A battle like this is rarely seen.
Throughout Great Chu, aside from Qin Ancestor, no one possesses a greater mastery of the Golden Body Divine Embryo in Martial Dao…
If you wish to cultivate two Sword Daos, you must forge your own path to the ‘Divine Embryo.'”
“…”
Xie Xuanyi raised an eyebrow.
He knew Lu Yuzhen had always been watching him.
But this guy was almost like a worm in his own belly.
“Actually, without the Divine Fruit, it’s also possible to cast a perfect ‘Divine Embryo.'”
Lu Yuzhen continued, “Sword Dao cultivators value Artifact Control.
No matter which Sword Dao is cultivated, they must use their Lifebound Flying Sword to congeal a Cave Heaven, using it as a vessel for the Cave Heaven.
This is undeniable, even for Zhao Chunyang…
Once one cultivates to the realm of Yang God, the Lifebound Cave Heaven is fixed and expanded into a blessed land.
The quality of the flying sword becomes especially crucial then.
Your sword ‘Chenqing,’ although impressive enough to bear the weight of the Yang God Realm, but what about the step beyond?”
Xie Xuanyi was taken aback.
Since ancient times, this had been the way of cultivation in Da Sui Sword Palace, the Lifebound Cave Heaven presided over by the Lifebound Flying Sword.
If the sword exists, so does the person; if the sword perishes, so does the person.
This was also why, after waking up in Yuzhu Town, his first task was to find “Chenqing.”
“Martial Artists without a Cave Heaven forge their Divine Embryo themselves.”
Lu Yuzhen looked up at the sky; after the intense battle, the sunset receded, night fell, and dim stars began to appear: “It is said that a thousand years ago, celestial constellations corresponded to bodily orifices as well as the divine positions of the Martial Artists’ Divine Embryos.
If one truly seeks to achieve the supreme state, one must enjoy the adoration of tens of thousands and become one’s own ‘God!'”
This statement.
Struck a poignant note in Xie Xuanyi’s Heart Lake.
He was now cultivating two great Daos.
What if his Lifebound Cave Heaven were forged, not with a flying sword at the helm, but with his own “Divine Embryo”?
Both a Cave Heaven and a Divine Embryo.
At the divine niche of the Cave Heaven, not a flying sword would be enshrined.
But…
himself!
“All the great Daos of the world are in the heavens.”
Lu Yuzhen said leisurely, “Yet if one truly wants to ascend, one has to step on the world beneath.
Between heaven and earth, everything is but a flip of the palm.
Who among mortals understands this reasoning, and how many can actually achieve it?”
These words were indeed boastful.
But Lord Lu genuinely had the credentials to be arrogant.
His dharma resembled the Pure White Saint, blending the Three Teachings into one.
His ambitions were not just what he outwardly displayed.
Seeing Xie Xuanyi did not respond,
Lu Yuzhen approached with a grin, “Don’t feel satisfied yet?
Want me to find a way to call them back for another round?”
To others, this casual tone would surely be taken as a joke.
But the style of this master had always been so…
hence the statement did not quite seem like a joke.
Regrettably,
Xie Xuanyi was not one to fall for such tactics, calmly issuing his command, “Sure, go ahead and call them back.
I’d like to see another match.”
“Do you think the Yang Gods are livestock?
Or do you take me for a deity?”
As expected, Lu Yuzhen chuckled and stepped back, saying, “Just kidding, I don’t have that much power.
But if you want to continue watching, there’s another even more exciting scene in Great Yue.”
Xie Xuanyi took a deep breath.
He indeed wanted to know, what exactly was Lu Yuzhen selling in his gourd by keeping him here.
So far,
he had not suffered any loss, and had gained a fortune for nothing.
“The Dragon Slaying Battle of Great Yue, I certainly intend to watch.”
Xie Xuanyi said calmly, “You don’t need to tell me; I wouldn’t miss it.”
Lu Yuzhen tilted slightly and casually tore through the void, lighting a portal with Primordial Fire.
“…
Please!”
