Fights Break Sphere: Purple Thunder Emperor

Chapter 379 What business is it of yours what kind of wine the Emperor drinks!
"pity!"

"pity!"

The two voices spoke in unison, and Xiao Bai and the Dou Sheng skeleton were both taken aback, not quite understanding what the other meant by "what a pity".

A moment later, Xiao Bai followed his gaze to the rotating Tai Chi diagram at his feet and suddenly realized something.

"Young friend, you are fortunate to possess such a wondrous object that elucidates the principles of Yin and Yang. No wonder you were able to obtain this opportunity from the Beast Spirit Shield."

The skeletal remains of the Battle Saint looked towards the area not far away, where the Beast Spirit Barrier had once been, and shook their heads.
"I am named after the Creator, yet I have no such fortune. If only I had encountered such an opportunity back then, young friend."

His tone was regretful, carrying a lingering melancholy, as if there was something left unsaid.

"It seems that the senior set up his cave here because of the fallen dragon and phoenix!" Xiao Bai said slowly, seemingly lost in thought.

"Indeed, when I was nearing the end of my lifespan, I traveled here and discovered that the two opposing forces of the dragon and the phoenix were showing signs of merging. There was even a sense of endless creation flowing through them, which was very much in line with my cultivation and understanding. So I created a small world here to observe the principles of its changes, hoping to further improve the cultivation techniques I created."

"Unfortunately, perhaps due to my limited talent, I was unable to raise my cultivation technique to the middle level of the Heaven Rank until my lifespan was nearing its end. My strength was ultimately stuck at the three-star Dou Sheng level, and I was unable to advance any further until my death."

The skeleton of the Battle Saint nodded slightly, a dim red light flickering in its eyes, as if it were lost in a distant memory.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai was both puzzled and speechless.

This was the first time he had ever heard of anyone in the Dou Qi Continent who would fight to the death with their own self-created techniques. Did they think that they would rather die than not cultivate their own self-created techniques?
"Can't you switch to another cultivation method, senior?"

Upon hearing Xiao Bai's question, the Dou Sheng skeleton paused slightly, its red-eyed sockets gazing intently at Xiao Bai. After scrutinizing him carefully, it spoke in a strange tone:
"To ask such a question, it seems you must either have a powerful background or be a person of great fortune!"

"Senior, what do you mean?"

Noticing something amiss in his words, Xiao Bai was puzzled.

"In this world, it's one thing if a person's natural talent is not good, but if they have great talent but are not born into a family with a strong background, where can they find so many suitable cultivation methods?"

"I do not know what the continent is like now, but when I was here, unless a rogue cultivator had an extraordinary stroke of luck and encountered a high-level cultivation technique that suited him in the early stages of cultivation, most rogue cultivators could only reach the Dou Sheng level by comprehending the techniques themselves."

"Even if you occasionally come across a high-level cultivation technique, it may not be suitable for you. If it is not extremely compatible with your own attributes, forcibly switching cultivation at the Dou Sheng level would be cutting off your future path. No one is willing to do that."

"Judging from your profound foundation, young friend, it far surpasses that of ordinary people. I imagine your cultivation method is quite extraordinary. It seems you have not suffered from the dangers of unaffiliated cultivators' methods!"

At this point, the skeleton of the Battle Saint actually glanced at him sideways with its eye sockets, as if it were looking at a class enemy.

“!!” Xiao Bai.

His face darkened slightly; the old man was referring to him: "Why don't you eat meat porridge?"
However, this explanation made Xiao Bai realize why there are so few wild Dou Sheng on the continent nowadays.

Resources are one aspect, but the cultivation method is also a major reason.

The right person may not meet the right training method.

Not everyone is like Xiao Bai, who possesses a thunder talisman residing in his sea of ​​consciousness, an inheritance he carries with him.

Not everyone is like Xiao Yan, who obtained the Burning Technique, which would be incredibly powerful even in the Great Thousand World, right from the start of his cultivation journey.

In the Dou Qi Continent, the importance of cultivation techniques is self-evident. Without the support of cultivation techniques, even if you have the aptitude to reach a certain realm, you can only look up to that realm.

"Alright, now that I've explained my 'pity,' tell me, what did you regret just now?"

The skeleton of the Dou Sheng waved his hand; he was genuinely curious about what Xiao Bai meant.

"It's a pity that the senior has lost all his essence and blood and his soul has dissipated. At this moment, he is only supported by a wisp of his revived will."

Xiao Bai snapped out of his daze, his eyes filled with regret as he gazed at the stark white skeleton, and sighed.

The skeleton of the Dou Sheng was taken aback. He hadn't expected Xiao Bai to regret this, then shook his head nonchalantly.
"I am already a dead man, what is there to regret? No, that's not right."

Suddenly, the eye sockets on his skull glowed intensely red, and he stared intently at Xiao Bai, asking suspiciously:

"Are you disappointed that I'm now just a skeleton?"

Xiao Bai remained silent, then with a flick of his sleeve ran off, standing with his hands behind his back.

"Senior, please don't misunderstand. I did come to these ruins this time to fight your Dou Sheng skeleton. However, that 'regret' wasn't because I was dissatisfied with the small amount of loot this time, but rather..."

He paused here, his eyes fixed on the skeleton, and continued:

"If you still possess essence and soul, perhaps we can attempt to resurrect you!"

"From the opportunity presented by that dragon and phoenix, I comprehended a bit of the Nirvana method, which uses blood as the medium and soul as the guide. I intended to try to revive you, as a way of repaying the debt of gratitude for obtaining this opportunity from your cave. However, it is a pity that your essence and blood are gone, and your soul is completely gone."

Xiao Bai shook his head. There was one more thing he didn't mention: the method of resurrection also required him to still have vitality. However, the Creation Battle Saint died at the end of his lifespan. Even if he still had essence and soul, his vitality was very weak, and he was powerless to help him.

"Resurrected?!"

The red light in the eye sockets of the Dou Sheng skeleton blazed brightly for a moment, almost blindingly so, but it dimmed after a short while.

He knows his own situation best; even if what Xiao Bai said is true, he cannot be resurrected at this moment.

"Hehe, you're very kind, young friend."

The skeleton of the Dou Sheng remained silent for a moment, then looked down at Xiao Bai's feet, his voice low and filled with a sense of relief.

"I am now just a wisp of my will, like a fleeting moment. To be able to see such profound principles of Yin and Yang in my dying moments is already an unexpected joy. Why should I force myself to be reborn?"

After he finished speaking, the red light in his eyes flickered slightly, as if he had made a decision.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Bai raised an eyebrow, vaguely guessing what was going on.

Sure enough, the next moment, he raised his bony finger and lightly touched his brow.

"Click——"

With a crisp sound, a tiny crack appeared on the jade-white skull, from which a faint golden light seeped out.

“Young friend, although I have not been able to break through the shackles in my life, the cultivation technique I created is the culmination of my life’s efforts and a regret of my life. Although it is only a low-level Heaven Rank technique, it contains my complete understanding of the word ‘creation’.”

"Today, I will give it to my young friend."

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light suddenly flew out, transforming into a stream of light that went straight into Xiao Bai's brow!
"Om-"

Xiao Bai felt a jolt in his mind as a vast amount of information surged in like a tide. Countless profound characters flashed in his sea of ​​consciousness, eventually transforming into a complete cultivation technique—"Creation Heaven Technique"!
He closed his eyes and concentrated, carefully comprehending the technique. He soon discovered that this technique was a rare dual-attribute technique, with both water and fire attributes.

No wonder his name is Creation.

Water and fire complement each other, yin and yang harmonize.

Although it is only a low-level Heavenly Rank, its core concept is "creation," emphasizing the mutual generation of all things and the rotation of Yin and Yang, which is somewhat in line with the Yin-Yang principle of the Tai Chi diagram!
"This……"

Xiao Bai opened his eyes and looked at the remains of the Dou Sheng, his expression complicated.

I must say, I underestimated him before. He is an exceptionally talented person. If he hadn't pursued two different paths, and if fire were the most revered element in the Dou Qi Continent, he might have actually reached a higher level.

The skeleton of the Battle Saint merely smiled faintly, his voice growing increasingly weak.

"I am about to perish. Rather than let this technique perish with me, I would rather pass it on to someone destined to receive it."

"Moreover, young friend, you possess the profound principles of Yin and Yang, and perhaps you can comprehend something even more profound from it, which would fulfill my regret from back then..."

Xiao Bai sighed inwardly. If the Creation Saint treated him this way, how could he possibly harm the remains left behind by the latter?

"Senior, to be honest, I have a senior who needs to be resurrected, and I need to borrow one of your arm bones!"

".!" The remains of a Battle Saint.

I'm about to leave this world, and you're still thinking about my bones?
The red light in the eye sockets of the Dou Sheng skeleton flickered violently, as if choked by Xiao Bai's sudden turn of events. He remained silent for a moment, then suddenly let out a hoarse laugh:

"Hahaha...Young friend, you are quite frank! Very well, since I have already given you the cultivation technique, this crippled body is of no use to me."

As he spoke, he actually inserted his bone palm into his chest and removed three white jade ribs.

"This is a fighting technique that I originally left behind. You must have seen it in the manual. It is called the Great Creation Palm. Although you can't use it, you can find someone to pass it on."

Then, his body flashed with a strange light, and in an instant, a ball of light the size of a fist condensed in his bone palm, from which terrifying energy fluctuations emanated.

As for this…

He weighed the ball of light in his hand and said:

"It is the essence of my bones and bones. When you resurrect your predecessor, add some of it; it will be more effective than just the arm bone alone!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior!"

Xiao Yan, who had arrived unnoticed, was slightly taken aback, then his eyes lit up with ecstatic joy, and he quickly bowed in return.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior!"

"All right!"

The skeleton of the Battle Saint waved his hand. The skeleton was now dull and lifeless, unlike its previous crystalline beauty. He said mockingly:

"I have nothing left on me that you can covet. Can you leave now?"

After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Bai's response, the red light in the eyes of the Dou Sheng skeleton completely dimmed, and the skeleton began to turn into countless points of light and dissipate in the air.

"Farewell, senior!" Xiao Bai remained silent for a long time before bowing deeply.

Xiao Yan followed behind silently, and also bowed to the place where the bones had dissipated.

After the light spots on the bones dissipated, only three white jade ribs and a ball of light emitting a faint glow remained on the spot. Xiao Bai reached out and summoned the two items into his hand.

Xiao Bai glanced at Xiao Yan, who was still staring at the disappearing Creation Saint, and after a moment of contemplation, tossed him the rib in his hand.

"Brother Bai."

Xiao Yan looked at the white jade bone floating in front of him, feeling somewhat at a loss. From the conversation between the two people just now, he knew what this thing was.

Heavenly Rank Battle Technique!

Bai Ge actually gave him something so precious?
As Venerable Feng watched this scene, a hint of envy appeared in his eyes. Even Qingxiao had to admire Xiao Bai's courage.

Heavenly-rank combat techniques, in any force, would be treasured as the sect's most prized possessions. Unless one is a direct descendant, it would be difficult to even catch a glimpse of them. Who would treat them like this, as if they were given a head of cabbage?

While feeling envious, Tang Zhen recalled what his daughter had said to Xiao Yan, and for a moment he felt quite emotional.

The two Xiao brothers have a really good relationship.

"Take it, this thing is useless to me!"

Xiao Bai waved his hand, not caring. Not to mention that he had already mastered this fighting technique before, there was also a record of this fighting technique in the Creation Heavenly Art.

This bone, which may be precious in the eyes of others, is, in his eyes, just a lump of golden spiritual liquid to temper his palm.

But he doesn't need this; with his physique, there's no need for tempering.

As for those around him, if they want to cultivate this fighting technique, the Thunder Tribulation Liquid can also temper their bodies, and it's not just a small amount of golden spirit liquid in the bones that can be compared to that; that amount can only temper the palm part.

"Don't be envious. If you want to learn, I can teach you once your skills improve!"

Out of the corner of his eye, Xiao Bai saw Nalan Yanran biting her lip beside Yun Yun, a hint of envy in her eyes. He turned his head and chuckled softly.

"really?"

Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes lit up. She had personally witnessed the power of this fighting technique before. How could she not want to learn it?

"I'm practically your teacher, would I lie to you?"

Xiao Bai looked at the beautiful figure beside her, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He didn't have much prejudice against Nalan Yanran, and considering that she was her teacher, he didn't mind teaching her.

"Thank you sir!"

Looking at her stunningly beautiful teacher beside her, whose cheeks were flushed, Nalan Yanran knew why Xiao Bai treated her this way, and quickly bowed respectfully.

Xiao Yan watched from the sidelines, his teeth aching. This was his fiancée, no, his ex-fiancée. If Brother Bai was her teacher, then what was he?
Just as he was lost in thought, Xiao Bai waved his hand and put away the essence of the Dou Sheng bones in front of him.

Seeing Qingxiao's unusual expression, Xiao Bai smiled and said:

"If you need anything, seniors, you can also share some of the profits."

Although the Soul Infant Fruit was a factor in her coming to help, he was still quite grateful.

Qingxiao was taken aback upon hearing this, then gently shook his head:

"This is your opportunity; you don't need to share it with me. However..."

She paused, then pleaded, "If possible, I hope you can give some to Huayu then!"

"no problem!"

Xiao Bai immediately understood what she meant, smiled, and nodded in agreement.

Just then, a furious roar echoed from the void:

"Impossible! Your light seal's power has clearly been greatly reduced, how can it still be so strong?!"

"Heh. Can't figure it out?"

Zi Yan's clear, cold voice rang out, and she sneered:
"If you can't figure it out, go to the Yellow Springs and keep thinking about it!"

As they spoke, the void rippled, and two blurry figures appeared. One tall figure held a giant seal that was extremely disproportionate to his size, which rippled with dazzling purple-gold light and carried terrifying power. He slammed it down on the disheveled figure opposite him.

"Clan leader!"

The disheveled figure was terrified. He couldn't understand why the light seal, which had been evenly matched, had suddenly unleashed a terrifying pressure, forcing him to retreat step by step without any power to resist.

Just then, two dazzling golden lights suddenly appeared in the void, so bright that people could hardly open their eyes and directly resisted the purple-gold light.

"Huang Tian!"

"After two years of fierce fighting, this seal is still so powerful. It seems that those fools, the Northern Dragon King, have all been fooled by you, little girl!"

As the golden light dimmed, the crowd realized that it was the light emanating from two eyes, and they were filled with dread.

"However, you alone are no match for me. Hand over the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, and I will let you go today. What do you say?"

"If you're not awake, go back to your bird's nest, where you can have anything in your dreams!" Zi Yan retorted without any politeness, her head bearing a dragon seal and her whole body enveloped in purple-gold light.

"Hmph, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!" Huang Tian snorted coldly, about to teach Zi Yan a lesson.

"What business is it of yours what kind of wine the Emperor drinks!"

In the void, an ancient voice suddenly rang out. As it spoke, the light seal seemed to have taken a powerful tonic, and a burst of intense purple-gold light suddenly erupted, directly engulfing the golden light.

"bang"

With a soft sound, the void shattered, and the scene vanished instantly.
