Chapter 644: Yue Qingping's Joy, The Fourth Fundamental Force, The Thirty-First Level of True Technique, Great! (Part 2)
Greatness, need no more words.
This is redemption.
This is the last hope.
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Xiong Kui Daoist descended to the solid ground and began to sit down in a cross-legged position.
At this moment, an observant cultivator noticed a trace of red crystal cluster appearing under the Taoist's feet.
This is a sign of the cultivation body being eroded by the red crystal water drop.
"Could it be... even Saint Immortal Yi Chunyang will fall to this evil object's crystallization?"
An elderly Immortal Platform cultivator, with little life span left, began to mutter to himself, a hint of despair appearing in his slightly cloudy eyes.
At this moment, nine imposing middle-aged Taoists arrived with formation flags; they were all disciples of the Pure Yang Holy Palace, commanded to sever the connection to the heavens today, sealing the passage from the Eighth Layer Heaven Realm to the Ninth Layer Heaven Realm.
As the spatial corridor closed, the Taoist's silhouette slowly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Really... cannot stop this force of erosion?"
"Why, why can't the annihilation power formed by my fusion of the three original divine powers stop this continuous erosion?"
"How... is it doing this?"
"Why did this thing appear in my Constant Immortal Realm?"
"If my annihilation power were a thousand times stronger, this red crystal water drop definitely wouldn't be able to resist my annihilation power."
Xiong Kui Daoist looked within himself, a red crystal water drop spinning in his Pure Yang Flame Prison, emitting endless red light and confronting the annihilation power within his body.
After years of arduous cultivation, no one knows better than the Taoist how strong the resistance of this godly body is. It could be said that his body is the most top-notch immortal artifact, yet even his nature cannot compare to the erosion of this red crystal water drop, undoubtedly making him feel somewhat disappointed.
Of course, it was merely disappointment.
Yi Chunyang never regrets once he has made a decision.
Only the weak are cowardly, frustrated, and remorseful; true strength only seeks to solve problems.
"Impossible, I have comprehended the three original divine powers, my power is infinite, you're just a mere dead object, how can you compete with me."
"There must be a great secret within."
"In the world, everything has cause and effect. I have never been able to comprehend the constancy mentioned in the Jade Emperor World Suppressing Scripture. Even with my boundless power, there are still the Saint Immortals, the Buddha Lord and Demon Lord, who can contend with me.
Under relentless erosion by alien forces, under the wear of time's great power, what in the world remains constant?"
The Taoist, while striving to counter the erosion force within his body, began to think rapidly for a countermeasure.
At this moment, looking at the crystal cluster that had already eroded to the ankle, the Taoist was suddenly inspired.
This eerie red crystal water drop, from another perspective, could it not also be a kind of imperfect constancy?
A mere dead object, no matter how limitless its energy, definitely cannot erode all eight layers of heaven, so...
"Let's see, what is the power origin within you!"
Suddenly, a ruthless glint flashed in the Taoist's eyes, and he unexpectedly gave up the full operation of True Technique to resist the red crystal water drop's eroding force. Instead, he redirected a portion of his mind to begin sensing the crystallized divine light of the red crystal water drop.
A thought voluntarily withdrew its protection, beginning to embrace the light that crystallizes everything. As the red light brushed him, the Taoist immediately felt one of his spiritual thoughts crystalize and vanish.
Since the beginning of cultivation, the Taoist had refined his power origin, True Spirit Divine Thought, to twelve thousand eight hundred paths, so he didn't mind losing a bit.
Seeing this situation, he furrowed his brows. This time, eight thousand spiritual thoughts overlapped into a large sphere, beginning to make reverse contact with the red crystal water drop.
Back when his True Technique was not yet formed, he once passed a large grassland and saw an unusual sight.
The grassland was full of ants. That day, a drought thunder struck down and ignited the withered grass. In the raging fire, countless ants were devoured by the tongues of fire. Just when he thought the ant colonies on the grassland would all perish in the flames, a miracle appeared.
Countless ants started to band together to form an ant ball several meters high, rolling towards the sea of flames.
This is the miracle of life!
Although the outer layer of ants turned to charcoal under the licking tongues of fire, their sacrifice was not in vain. Rolling amidst the flames, wave after wave, they protected the core ant colony, winning invaluable time for them to escape the sea of fire and gain a chance at life.
Though when they finally escaped the sea of fire, reaching the ashes of the burned areas, only a hundredth of the ants survived as the charcoal fell away. Still, they had succeeded in overcoming the calamity.
In the coming spring, when weather conditions were suitable, their colony would only grow stronger.
This time, after holding on for a dozen breaths, the Taoist lost another eight thousand True Spirit Divine Thoughts.
"Fuck your mother!"
"Bet everything on this!"
"This poor Taoist will wager his entire existence against you!"
"!@#¥%"
The Taoist's expression turned ferocious. Immediately, the long river of crystalline thoughts turned into a sphere far larger than the previous two attempts and rolled towards the red crystal water drop.
Although the previous probe ultimately failed, it also gave him a glimmer of hope for success.
With Yi Chunyang's astonishing wisdom, if he comprehends the mighty source of the red crystal water drop's crystallizing power, he would surely break its erosive capacity, perhaps even!
Advance the True Technique further to the unprecedented thirty-first realm.
