Soul Awakening: Planting Green Lotus in the Infinite Abyss

Chapter 261: Breakthrough and Guardian
“Choose here this time.”

Nuwa's finger pointed at a light spot that was not much dimmer than Qin Shu's. Its cultivation should be no less than either of them.

But their strength is not necessarily the case. Nuwa has the precious Hunyuan Pearl, and Qin Shu's combat power is almost invincible in the same realm.

Therefore, there is nothing to be afraid of.

"it is good!"

After identifying their opponents, they broke through the void and appeared not far from a chaotic god or demon.

This god and demon is dressed in black and red, with a serrated spear in his left hand and a blood-red sickle in his right hand. He is the Chaos Demon God who controls the Avenue of Slaughter, Slaughter.

As soon as Qin Shu and Nuwa arrived here, they released the Dao disaster.

Then do it at the same time.

Qin Shu shook the Hongmeng Bell and controlled Zhu Lu for a moment when he just reacted.

Immediately afterwards, Nuwa shot out the Hunyuan Pearl, which hit Zhulu, and the powerful force directly injured him seriously.

This is a ninth-level Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian existence, and part of his essence was damaged in just one encounter.

Afterwards, the Dao disaster easily invaded his body.

"You good thief, you are using your numbers to bully the few. Run away!"

Although Zhulu controls the Way of Slaughter, he is not mentally insane. He only knows how to kill. After being seriously injured, he turns into blood light, breaks through the chaos, and flees into the distance.

During his escape, the Dao disaster dissipated out of his body and spread to other places.

Although Qin Shu and Nuwa noticed this, they did not try to stop it.

It is inevitable that the Dao disaster will spread in the chaos, and they cannot stop it.

Then he decisively followed up with the killing, just enough to keep him hanging.

Zhu Lu ran and healed his wounds, but it had almost no effect, and he was horrified.

Could it be that the power of the Great Dao contained in the attacks of these two people is extremely secretive?
He scanned the body with his own spiritual sense, but found no clues.

It's not that there isn't any, but after the spiritual sense swept over it, it became much weaker.

He sensed and confirmed that there was something foreign in his body.

But no matter how hard they searched, they could not find the existence of Dao Jie.

Qin Shu and Nuwa were chasing him closely, so he didn't have much energy to investigate carefully and could only continue to run faster.

The speed of killing in the chaos can be said to be very fast, and now it has been brought to the extreme, the only thing missing is the burning body's origin.

But Qin Shu and Nuwa still followed slowly.

He realized that something was wrong. These two were definitely planning something, and the abnormality in his body was caused by them.

If I continue running like this, I might not even have a chance to fight.

So he stopped.

"What did you do to me?"

Qin Shu and Nuwa came to an emergency stop, and stopped not too far from Zhulu, just looking at Him without saying a word.

It would be best if the killers are unwilling to take action. They are too lazy to bother.

If you want to take action, I will accompany you to the end.

Seeing the two of them like this, Zhu Lu became more certain of what he was thinking.

"You are bullying me too much, kill me!"

The saw spear of destruction stabbed straight forward, and the sickle of death slashed horizontally, rolling up the boundless power of chaos and turning it into a sharp edge of destruction, attacking Qin Shu and Nuwa.

"Certainly!"

Qin Shu shook the Hongmeng Bell again to freeze the chaos around him, including the killing attack.

Nuwa once again shot out the Hunyuan Pearl, shattering the sharp edge of the killing blow while continuing to crash into it.

An entire infinite world was crashing towards him, and Zhulu was unable to dodge it. He was hit by the side and half of his body was about to be shattered.

The last time I was hit, I only slightly hurt my essence, but this time I felt like my whole body was about to collapse.

"When did my divine and demonic body become so weak?"

At this time, the Dao Jie was already developing wildly in his body.

Previously, the pursuit speed of both sides was too fast, so Zhu Lu forgot about time and gave Dao Jie too much opportunity to develop.

No one answered the questions in his mind.

Qin Shu stopped chasing. The Five Tai Five Directions Flags flew out and surrounded Zhulu in an instant, transforming into the Five Tai Five Elements Formation, forming an infinite enclosed space and trapping him.

He thought it would be better not to let this murderous demon run around, to avoid any accidents.

Nuwa agreed with this and asked, "Is this how I watch?"

"Master, the two killing treasures in his hand are quite good. Please use the Hunyuan Pearl to bless the formation."

"Can!"

Nuwa responded, then sacrificed the Hunyuan Pearl and merged into the formation.

The Five Elements Formation has become more stable, and has formed an original world in the chaos, truly trapping Zhulu firmly inside.

"let me out!"

The fluctuation of the will to kill was like a cry in the chaos, resounding directly in the minds of Qin Shu and Nuwa.

The two ignored him and stayed outside the formation.

After a hundred thousand years, Zhulu finally felt what was happening inside his body. An unknown species had parasitized him without him noticing.

It's too late to find out now, and there's nothing we can do about it.

Not long after, the killing dissipated, including the two killing treasures, which were also eaten by the Dao disaster. The restrictions collapsed and became the nutrients for their division.

The Five Tai and Five Directions Flags and the Hunyuan Pearl were protected by Qin Shu and Nuwa, so the Dao Jie could not invade.

Immediately afterwards, the two of them launched a round of destruction on the Dao Tribulation inside. Qin Shu transformed it into an eternal lotus seed, which was slightly larger than the previous ones.

The two spent the next tens of millions of years spreading the Dao calamity.

Millions of years after the Dao disaster began, Nuwa was confused and said to Qin Shu, "Xiao Shu, do you think our actions are harmful to Daohe?"

Qin Shu, however, did not think so at all and replied, "Since the Great Dao allows Dao disasters to exist, then it must be reasonable. We are just making use of it. Not to mention that the Chaos Gods and Demons and Chaos Ferocious Beasts are our mortal enemies. Master should know clearly between the enemy and us."

Nuwa was just on the verge of a breakthrough, and her mood was slightly fluctuating. After being persuaded by her own disciples, she finally came to terms with it.

Over the next tens of millions of years, as the number of eternal lotus seeds increased, her determination to follow the Tao became more resolute.

When the number of eternal lotus seeds reached 666, Qin Shu could no longer hold on.

He hasn't reached that realm yet. If he carries too much eternal power, there will be a risk of transformation.

Now, six hundred and sixty-six eternal lotus seeds are his limit.

"Master, I can't keep it anymore."

Nuwa stopped in the chaos, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Come on."

The eternal substances contained in the six hundred and sixty eternal lotus seeds were not enough for her to make a perfect breakthrough, but it was already Qin Shu's limit, and she couldn't ask for too much.

Even if the breakthrough fails, its own foundation can be greatly increased.

Although it will increase the difficulty of subsequent breakthroughs, the combat power will also be increased significantly.

So don't be afraid.

Eternal matter is the opportunity for Nuwa to break through. The more she has, the easier it will be to break through and the higher the success rate.

But as long as you break through to the Heavenly Dao Realm, no matter how much eternal matter you have used before, your strength after the breakthrough will be the same.

It may be that the duration of the breakthrough will be longer.

Qin Shu didn't intend to let Nuwa break through here.

"Master, let's go back first."

Nuwa looked around and said, "In fact, it is not so easy to encounter danger in the chaos. Not every being is like you, who has eternal matter and can glimpse the opportunity of the great way."

Qin Shu shook his head and said, "Master, it's better to be safe."

"Well." Nuwa had no choice but to go into the Hunyuan Pearl again, and was led by Qin Shu to exchange places with Jiu Ming. They had been gone for nearly 50 million years.

Everything is normal in the spiritual world.

During these fifty million years, there has been no new world origin provided, and He has not grown much. He has just absorbed the power from the chaos and developed slowly.

Qin Shu and Nuwa appeared in Nuwa Palace.

The Fenglei Palace was guarded by Fang Yu, Lu Yixi, Lu Ningshuang, Xiao Yan and Yuan Ren, so Jiu Ming had been in the Nuwa Palace before.

After returning to Nuwa Palace, Qin Shu and Nuwa did not stay here.

To break through to the Heavenly Dao Realm, one must stay away from the spirit and soul world, and also stay away from the Zhoutian Chaos Array.

Otherwise, at the most critical moment of Nuwa's breakthrough, the spiritual world might ask her to merge with the Dao.

This possibility is very high, she can't take the risk.

Therefore, the two of them fled very far away and stopped only after they could no longer sense the existence of the spiritual world.

"Master, what do you think of this place?"

"Very good." Nuwa didn't choose a place, "Let's start now."

"it is good!"

Qin Shu and Nuwa sat down opposite each other, and then the Five Tai and Five Directions flags were raised, with the blessing of the Hunyuan Pearl to provide defense for the two.

The green lotus of the soul manifested, and the first eternal lotus seed flew out.

Qin Shu withdrew his spiritual power just before injecting it into Nuwa's body.

The eternal lotus seed was therefore unable to condense into shape, and was forcibly sucked into Nuwa's body when it was about to disintegrate.

In an instant, the eternal power flowed throughout his body, with great destructive power.

A small crack appeared on Nuwa's real body, but it was quickly healed by the Great Dao of Creation.

During this process, Nuwa took the opportunity to spy on the eternal power, trying to maintain it and use it for her own benefit.

The first time obviously didn't work.

As the eternal matter continued to dissipate, it also tempered his body and the path of creation.

But there are a total of 666 Eternal Lotus Seeds, and the one Qin Shu originally had does not count.

Nuwa had at least a hundred chances.

Before the eternal matter completely dissipated, Qin Shu separated one again, took back the power of his soul, and injected it into Nuwa's body.

During the entire breakthrough process, the eternal substance cannot be interrupted.

Therefore, before Nuwa breaks through, Qin Shu must be there throughout the process.

The Five Elements Formation was completely integrated into the chaos because of the suppression of the Hunyuan Pearl.

However, in the process of Nuwa refining the eternal substance, the aura of chaos still fluctuated extremely violently.

Several Heavenly Masters noticed it within the Zhoutian Chaos Array.

This kind of fluctuation is definitely not from an ordinary Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

But they were too far away from the Zhoutian Chaos Array and they didn't dare to take the risk.

Nuwa is not here!
Before, when Qin Shu and Nuwa returned to Nuwa Palace, they did not greet any of the Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Therefore, faced with the unknown, they decided to take conservative measures.

The Lord of Dao and Virtue, Wangshu and the goddess of fate came to Fuxi with satisfaction.

Of course, Fuxi was one of the people who noticed the movement of Nuwa's breakthrough. He was just about to use the River Map and Luoshu to do divination when these three people came.

"Fellow Taoist Fuxi."

"Greetings, fellow Taoists. Fuxi already knows your purpose. Please wait a moment."

Having said that, Fuxi began to calculate again.

Daode Tianzun stopped him, "Wait a minute, Daoist friend. The three of us are willing to lend a helping hand. If there is a backlash, the four of us will bear it together, and the injuries will be less severe."

"good."

Wangshu and Xihe nodded at the same time.

Fuxi thought about it and agreed, so he accepted the kindness of the three people.

"good!"

Then, the Lord of Dao and Morality performed the Tai Chi diagram, Wangshu contributed the Avenue of Time and the Avenue of Destiny, and Chengxin strengthened the original Avenue of Destiny even more.

It was at this time that Fuxi invested in the River Map and Luo Shu.

Then, the River Map and Luo Shu revealed the interior of the Five Tai and Five Direction Flags so clearly.

This was left behind intentionally by Qin Shu and Nuwa, just to let Fuxi and the others know that it was Nuwa who made the breakthrough.

There was no backlash.

The four of them looked at each other.

Daode Tianzun said: "I don't know what kind of opportunity Qin Daoyou got to help Nuwa break through."

"That must be the eternal substance." With just a quick glance, Cheng Xin recognized the eternal substance after the eternal lotus seeds dissipated their form.

The specific situation of Qin Shu and Nuwa was only shown once in the River Map and Luo Shu, and then it was extinguished.

Wangshu nodded with certainty, "That's right."

Afterwards, the four of them secretly shook their heads in their hearts. Unless they really wanted to start a breakthrough, it would be best not to use eternal matter.

This is something that is born in the process of the Infinite World being promoted to the Eternal World. It is not something that ordinary individual creatures can covet, even if that individual is a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.

Unless you are willing to be in harmony with the Tao, or directly become the Tao.

It is not easy to condense the eternal lotus seeds, but Nuwa absorbs the eternal matter quickly.

It only takes Nuwa three hundred years to absorb each eternal lotus seed.

Six hundred and sixty-six of them, that's only about two hundred thousand years.

As the Eternal Lotus Seeds were continuously refined, Nuwa's understanding of their properties became deeper and deeper.

To a certain extent, the Great Dao of Creation is very consistent with the Great Dao itself.

Therefore, before the six hundred and sixty-six eternal lotus seeds were completely refined by Nuwa, her path of creation had already begun to transform.

The bottleneck leading to the Heavenly Dao Realm has been broken.

Qin Shu decisively stopped the injection of eternal matter.

At this time, there are still one hundred and thirteen eternal lotus seeds left.

As Nuwa began to break through, there was no need for Qin Shu to stay in the formation. With a thought, he escaped from the formation and stayed here to protect her.

The fluctuations of the chaotic energy became more and more violent as Nuwa began to break through.

It is unknown how long the whole process will last, but it will be at least tens of millions of years.

In the Zhoutian Chaos Array, at Fuxi's Fengqi Mountain Taoist temple, not only did Wangshu and his companions not leave, but many Hunyuan Daluo Jinxians came instead.

They all learned from Fuxi that Nuwa was going to make a breakthrough.

Now that the chaos fluctuations are becoming more intense, we know that Nuwa’s breakthrough is complete, and what remains is just the accumulation of strength.

The joy in my heart is beyond words.

Qin Shu didn’t know this. He was currently studying how to use the remaining Eternal Lotus Seeds.

"Perhaps we can use it to find materials for refining the Bagua map and the star map."

In fact, this thing can also be used to refine weapons.

For example, the five-sided flag.

As long as Qin Shu puts ten eternal lotus seeds into it, any of the flags will never be damaged.

But after being injected with eternal matter, the Chaos Spirit Treasure will become an eternal Spirit Treasure. It will never be damaged, but it will also lose the potential for growth.

This was something Qin Shu could not accept.
