Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2118 The Supreme Purity Azure Journey, One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones
Just when Tongtian was about to be defeated, the appearance of one person directly changed the outcome of the battle.

The person who arrived was none other than Taiqing, one of the Three Pure Ones.

Tongtian integrated his array formations and sword techniques, making his array formations merge with his sword techniques. This greatly increased his combat power. Although his realm was not as high as that of the second brother, Yuanshi, his actual combat power was not necessarily inferior to his opponent's.

However, if he were to face Taiqing, the eldest of the Three Pure Ones, based solely on this, then he would be no match for him.

Even if he had activated the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, Taiqing could still have stormed into the formation and given him a good beating.

While part of the reason is that he certainly couldn't really go to war with his elder brother, the bigger reason lies in the difference in their overall strength.

The land of Qianwei was the heart of the Central Plains. The original Central Plains originated from the land of Qianwei. During the reigns of the Three Sovereigns and the establishment of order by the Five Emperors, the Central Plains underwent its initial expansion.

Afterwards, during the period of war among a hundred kingdoms, Emperor Shenwu initially unified the country and established the first imperial dynasty, which eventually laid the foundation for the Central Plains region where the seven major dynasties are located today.

The land of Qianwei, as the origin of Central Plains culture, is also the place where the culture of the Hundred Schools of Thought flourished and where the Hundred Schools of Thought concentrated and took root.

Two of the three most prestigious Confucian academies were located in the Qianwei region. Whether it was the Sage's Lecture Hall of the Great Qian or the Lesser Sage's Manor of the Great Wei, both held extraordinary significance in the hearts of scholars throughout the land.

The Legalist Academy, one of the three major academies of the Legalist school, was also located in the Qianwei region.

Although the Legal Academy may not have been as prominent as the Mingdian Academy of the Great Wu Dynasty or the Zhengqian Academy of the Great Xia Dynasty in recent years, it remains a sacred place in the hearts of countless Legalist disciples as the origin of Legalism.

Farmers were mainly concentrated within the Great Qian Dynasty.

The Yin-Yang School was mainly concentrated in the Xia and Wei dynasties, including the Wei region of Qianwei.

The Great Wei Shaolin Temple, in terms of the sheer number of disciples and followers, even surpasses the Little Thunderclap Temple. In terms of scale, it is truly the largest Buddhist sect. Among the two major schools and three major religions of Buddhism, none can rival it.

Even the Southern Shaolin and Northern Shaolin, which split off from them, are renowned throughout the Buddhist community.

Compared to the Little Thunder Temple, which is a Buddhist temple with bull-headed ears, Shaolin Temple is only lacking in top-tier masters; in almost every other aspect, it surpasses Shaolin Temple.

The three schools and two sects of Taoism also have deep roots in the Qianwei region.

In particular, the three religions have most of their mountain gates located here. Tongtian's Biyou Palace is on a small island in the eastern sea of ​​Daqian, while Taiqing's Shouyang Mountain is located at the border of Qian and Wu.

The commotion caused by Donghuang Taiyi and his group in the Great Qian Dynasty was quite significant, which attracted the attention of Taiqing.

Neither of the two Confucian scholars, Gu Qingzhu or Confucius, had any research on the principles of destiny.

However, the Taoists, especially Taiqing, had a deeper understanding of the principles of Qi and destiny.

If we say that Donghuang Taiyi learned through the legacy of his predecessors that the number of people who could break through to the limit of the Celestial Realm was limited due to the influence of the world's fortune.

However, Taiqing Laozi learned about this entirely through his own research.

It was simply because he had no choice but to worry more about his disciple, Xuandu.

Among the three religions, Xuandu is not the only one at the peak of the Celestial Realm, but he is currently the only one qualified to look towards the next realm.

As for Wuyun and Yunxiao of the Jie Sect, although they had both reached the peak of the Celestial Realm, they had only just broken through the threshold of this realm. They were only thinking about how to go further in this realm. As for looking forward to the next realm, they were still far away.

It's even uncertain whether Wuyun and Yunxiao will be able to take another step towards the peak of the Celestial Realm in their lifetime.

The higher one's realm, the easier it is to break through.
The more you cultivate your inner strength, the stronger you become, and the more powerful you become with age, but that's only if you can break through the thresholds of advancement step by step. Countless mediocre people remain stagnant for decades without making any progress, unable to break through the thresholds of their cultivation.

It was precisely because Xuandu had reached a certain level and was qualified to begin looking towards the next level that Taiqing gradually realized something while worrying about this disciple.

Of course, although Xuandu, Fuyue, Duobao, Mengke, Donghuang Taiyi, Huangtian, and Xuanming have all reached a level where they are qualified to start looking at the next level.

However, some of them have not only reached the required level, but their understanding of the mind is also almost perfect. If a spot were available, they could really break through directly.

However, some people have only reached a certain level, but they still have no clue about the mindset and understanding needed to break through to the next level. Even if a position becomes vacant, it does not mean that they can break through.

The arrival of such a large group of peak Celestial Realm experts from other places, including Donghuang Taiyi, and the fact that it caused such a commotion, meant that even if Taiqing was indifferent to worldly affairs, he couldn't possibly not take them seriously.

The twenty-four Celestials, including the eight peak Celestials, had formed a top-tier formation. If they could truly master this formation, they would possess the power to threaten Taiqing.

Even if he were to remain quiet and inactive, he couldn't possibly ignore such a large group of people gathered within the Great Qian Dynasty.

In fact, Taiqing had a certain degree of suspicion that Donghuang Taiyi and his group had set their sights on Tongtian. After all, with such a large force gathered together, there were very few who were qualified to be their target.

Therefore, during this period, Taiqing, unusually, stopped staying on the mountaintop and went down the mountain. In fact, he stayed almost all the way near Donghuang Taiyi and the others.

Although he was only speculating that Donghuang Taiyi and his group might be aiming at Tongtian, this speculation was enough to make him restless and ready to act.

The highest principle is non-action, but non-action is never inaction; rather, it is acting according to one's will. It's just that, combined with Taiqing's detached personality, it appears to be inaction.

However, if the non-action of the Human Sect truly meant inaction, then the disciples of the Human Sect would not participate in the affairs of the world. Moreover, even Xuandu was not entirely like Taiqing, staying in the mountains and never going out.

Those who mistake others' inaction for inaction and act recklessly will be taught a lesson by the teachers: what true inaction means. Fortunately, Taiqing's two younger brothers and fellow disciples are not truly without importance in his heart.

Currently, there are seven in the Central Plains and three in the Four Barbarian Tribes, totaling ten, placing them at the top of the pyramid of martial artists worldwide.

However, among these ten people, Taiqing, Gu Qingzhu, and Kong Qiu are the pinnacle of the pyramids, having gone the furthest in this realm among the many celestial beings at their limits.

Like the Three Pure Ones, Anlahu of the Northern Di was born at his peak. As the supreme god of one of the three major religions, his realm was not necessarily inferior to that of Taiqing.

While both are supreme gods and creator gods, it is clear that the supreme gods and creator gods of the three major religions are far superior to those of smaller mythological systems or less influential religious systems.

As for the remaining two of the Four Barbarians, one is the creator god of one of the three major religions, and the other is the founder of one of the three major religions. Although they suffered from not reaching the peak of their mortal existence, they have now broken through that realm.

Given their status as members of the three major religions, even if they are not currently as prominent as Taiqing, Gu Qingzhu, and Confucius, their potential is not necessarily inferior to that of the three.

Confucius once used one method to transform into all methods, cultivating the Way of Literature, yet in a battle against Tongtian, who specialized in the Way of the Sword, he was still able to hold his own.

When Taiqing made his move, his power was no less than that of Confucius.

Taiqing used the technique of transforming one breath into three pure beings, and with one move, he directly turned the tide of the battle.

The "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones" technique is not only the ultimate secret technique of the Taiqing Sect, but also a Taoist formation that is almost as powerful as the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation. However, their functions differ, with the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation focusing more on killing.

Kunpeng was once besieged by Bai Ze and a group of Yin-Yang masters. During the breakout, he directly revealed the secret technique Kunpeng Dharma Body, which was created by Kunpeng after he had the good fortune to witness the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones and pondered it for many years.

However, the Kunpeng Dharma Body, in the end, is still not as good as the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.

The difference is evident from the fact that one can only create two avatars, while the other can create three. Furthermore, the energy consumption of the Kunpeng Secret Technique is generally higher than that of the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique.

Therefore, the Kunpeng Dharma Body can only be used as a last resort, and cannot be used as a regular combat technique.

Of course, the fact that Kunpeng was able to create such a secret technique by imitating the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones on his own is enough to demonstrate his extraordinary talent.

Kunpeng may have some flaws, but his pursuit of the Dao is beyond question. How many people would be willing to plot against someone stronger than themselves for a secret about the ultimate realm of Heaven and Man, without even knowing if it would be of any use to them?
The Golden Crow Divine Form, formed by the condensation of the Golden Crow Hao Ri Great Codex and the Golden Crow Transformation by the Yin-Yang School, is truly unique in its own way compared to the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.

Although the Golden Crow Transformation can only produce one Golden Crow divine form, if enough internal energy is injected beforehand, it can produce a Golden Crow divine form with a realm completely similar to the original body.

Moreover, once condensed, it does not require a large amount of internal energy to maintain, unlike the Kunpeng Dharma Body or the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones.

While the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique doesn't achieve a result similar to one's own cultivation level like the Golden Crow Transformation, and the transformed Dharma bodies are at a lower level than the original, its sheer number far surpasses that of the Golden Crow Transformation.

Moreover, the Golden Crow Divine Form that the Golden Crow transforms into requires a great deal of time and effort to condense, unlike the Kunpeng Dharma Body or the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones which can be condensed directly.

Taiqing Yiqi transformed into three pure beings, each of whom possessed a realm no less than that of Donghuang Taiyi and Xuanming. Even if their combat strength was inferior to their realm, the impact of having three such beings in their faces on the battle was immense.

Although the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique consumes a great deal of energy, this great consumption is relative to the peak of the Celestial Realm. Compared to the Celestial Realm limit where the power of heaven and earth is combined and the power is inexhaustible, it can be regarded as a normal attack.

Not to mention, while the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones manifests into three Dharma bodies, it also directly forms the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones Grand Array.

With the appearance of Taiqing, there was no need for a real fight. After a few simple tests, Donghuang Taiyi, Xuanming, Jiang Ze and the others already knew that they could not kill Tongtian today.

Or rather, the question now isn't how to kill Tongtian, but how to survive. These half-baked Earthly Twenty-Four cultivators simply can't hold their own against the Great General of One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones for long.

Helpless, Donghuang Taiyi could only transform into the Golden Crow Divine Form that he had condensed beforehand.

He certainly wouldn't have failed to prepare for such a powerful trump card as the Golden Crow Divine Form beforehand.

However, it was never released; it was hidden and kept as a backup plan.

He might have intended this as a backup plan to deal with Tongtian, but if it didn't work on Tongtian, it's not impossible that he would use it on his own teammate.

Now, however, Donghuang Taiyi used it to cover their breakout.

The remaining Xuanming and his companions also revealed their trump cards one by one. This was a moment that could cost them their lives, so naturally none of them dared to hold back any longer.

In order to break through, they even had their Celestials take three of the four swords of the Immortal Execution Sword that they had already removed and break through separately to distract Tongtian and the others.

The Four Swords of Zhuxian are the most precious treasures of the Jie Sect. If they were to throw them into the sea, it would be an unbearable burden for Tongtian.

Therefore, he was able to first retrieve his four Zhuxian swords, and after retrieving these three swords, he could then pursue the escaped Donghuang Taiyi and the others.

Anyway, for Tongtian, these people can run away, but they can't hide. If they escape this time, he'll just pay them a visit one by one. However, if his Zhuxian Sword is thrown into the sea, it's uncertain whether he can find it again.

However, even so, five Celestial Beings still died in this battle, and the eight peak Celestial Beings who led the way were all injured. Among them, Zhang Fuyao, Tian Di, and a few others were seriously injured and would need to recuperate for at least three or four years.

This allowed them to retreat all the way to the ship, where the group fled in panic.

This battle caused Tongtian, whose injuries were almost fully healed, to not only relapse but also suffer further injuries.
