Chapter 243 Dao Nature and Human Nature

The debate between Taiwei and Yangmei lasted for a full thousand years, during which they gained a general understanding of each other's cultivation levels.

In general, Taiwei and Yangmei are at roughly the same level of cultivation, both being Yuanshi True Saints at the peak of the Taiyi realm. However, Taiwei did not reveal his full strength and resources, and Yangmei should also have held back.

Even so, the strength and foundation displayed by Taiwei and Yangmei still shocked Qingting, Beiyi, and Tianming. This thousand years was a spiritual baptism for the three of them.

After finishing his discourse, Taiwei looked down at Beiyi, who was surrounded by wind and snow, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"The Dao nature and human nature have almost completely merged. Fortunately, you took her to travel around the primordial world to cleanse her spiritual light with the energy of the mortal world. Otherwise, Bei Yi's spiritual light would probably be completely dominated by the Dao nature by now."

"It's not easy to handle."

After watching for a while, Taiwei frowned and spoke. Seeing the worry on Yang Mei's face, Taiwei smiled and said, "It's not that it's difficult to handle, but it's not that it's impossible to handle. If I use my method, solving Bei Yi's problem won't be too difficult. I just don't know if you can accept it."

"What method? I agree to anything that can solve Bei Yi's problems."

Upon hearing that Taiwei had a solution, Yang Mei smiled. Indeed, it was the right decision to bring Taiwei here. Taiwei's cultivation encompassed a wide range of paths, and consequently, he possessed more and better methods to resolve Bei Yi's problems.

"With your words of reassurance, I'm relieved. From now on, you can just watch from the sidelines."

Taiwei smiled at Yang Mei, and the chilling killing intent on his face startled Yang Mei. But before Yang Mei could react, a red-clad figure appeared in front of Taiwei, holding the Heavenly Sun Fin and surrounded by the power of the sun constantly surging and exploding.

The Shark Tooth Longsword slashed down in an instant. Qingting, Beiyi, and Tianming, who were still immersed in the Daoist enlightenment, were shocked. They quickly produced their magical treasures, but in just a fraction of a second, the domineering blade slashed Qingting away, and a fist imprint wrapped in heavy flames blasted Tianming away.

As the swords clashed, the power of the sun and the extreme cold of ice and snow exploded together. The red-clad figure slightly pressed down on the Heavenly Sun Fin in his hand, and Bei Yi's cold expression faded a little, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

The Sunfin slashed down again, its powerful and domineering blade light tearing through the howling wind and snow on Bei Yi's body. With a flick of its sleeve, Bei Yi was sent flying by the red-clad figure's sleeve. Drops of scarlet blood splattered in the sea of ​​clouds. The Sunfin slashed out a blazing golden-red blade light, catching up with the blasted-away Bei Yi.

"Junior Sister!"

"Senior Sister!"

Everything happened in an instant. Qingting and Tianming had just flown out of the sea of ​​clouds when they saw Beiyi's figure being swallowed up by endless brilliant sword light, and their minds went blank.

At this moment, Qingting and Tianming were completely absorbed by the sight of Bei Yina being pierced into the sea of ​​clouds, and the string of reason in their minds had snapped.

Thousands of green swords, shaped like grass leaves, pierced through the red-clad figure like meteors. Behind Tianming, a majestic ancient divine tree emerged, disrupting the surrounding temporal order.

Qingting wielded thousands of Azure Vein Swords, piercing and tearing through a blade of light in front of him. Behind Tianming, countless branches and leaves of the Netherworld Tree hung down, and the mighty torrent of time washed away and erased the blade of light.

The blurry face of the red-clad figure cracked open, revealing a smile-like fissure. With a flick of its large red sleeves, the immense power of the sun condensed into a crimson sleeve, like a celestial river, crashing down like a canopy.

Qingting and Tianming both groaned. The thousands of Azure Vein Swords and the Netherworld Divine Wood creaked under such immense power. Countless crimson streaks of light held Qingting and Tianming back. The red-clad figure shot out, and the Heavenly Sun Fins slashed out again in an instant, tearing apart the blood-red ice crystals in front of Beiyi.

Panting heavily, her left arm twisted, and covered in blood, Bei Yi spat out another mouthful of blood. Her slender figure was sent flying thousands of feet by the red-clad figure's slash. A clear blade mark appeared on her Frost Spirit Sword, and she was severely injured.

However, the figure in red showed no mercy. The Heavenly Sun Fins slashed down again, and the Heavenly Ash Thousand Wheel Blade unleashed endless, blazing light, engulfing Bei Yi's figure once more.

The red-clad figure waved his left hand, unleashing a deluge of flames that blocked Taiwei and Yangmei from charging forward from behind. The smile on his face grew increasingly ferocious, and the red-clad figure let out a cold laugh as the Heavenly Sun Fin in his hand completely tore apart the Frost Spirit Sword that Bei Yi was struggling to block.

A hideous bloodstain appeared on Bei Yi's body. The excruciating pain and the fear of facing death completely wiped away the coldness on Bei Yi's face. She gritted her teeth, and countless snowflakes and ice crystals transformed into blades and sword lights, slashing at the red-clad figure in front of her who was once again wielding a sword to strike.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, Yang Mei frowned as she looked down at Bei Yi, who was being repeatedly injured. Her face was full of worry. Behind Yang Mei, Qing Ting and Tian Ming watched with concern as Bei Yi was repeatedly slashed away by the red-clad figure in the sea of ​​clouds, their auras fluctuating.

"Are you sure this method will work?" Yang Mei looked at Bei Yi's pierced abdomen, her eyelids twitched, and she asked Tai Wei.

"If the Tao prevails over human nature, then just stimulate her human nature. The great terror between life and death is the most direct, the most effective, and the fastest way to achieve results."

Taiwei explained, controlling the red-clad figure with his mind to continuously attack Beiyi. Taiwei had limited the red-clad figure's cultivation to the Golden Immortal realm, but even so, the red-clad figure's combat power far surpassed Beiyi's.

However, Taiwei also knew how to exercise restraint. Bei Yi's injuries seemed serious, and they were indeed serious, but such injuries would not affect Bei Yi's foundation, and it would not take long for him to recover.

Taiwei looked at Qingting and Tianming behind Yang Mei, and with a wave of his sleeve, flung Qingting and Tianming into the ever-burning fire clouds below: "You two should go down too. This battle will also benefit you two."

"Alright, now that the matter with Bei Yi is resolved, the next step is the matter with Cang Hai Island."

"Canghai Island?" Yang Mei turned to look at Taiwei upon hearing this, not understanding what it meant.

"Now that you have become the leader of the overseas rogue cultivators, the more immortal islands under your command, the better. Penglai Island is your training ground, and using it as the ancestral home of the rogue cultivators will definitely affect your cultivation. So what I mean is that Penglai Island should still be your training ground, and Canghai Island will be enough as the ancestral home of the overseas rogue cultivators."

"Qianmu, the lord of Canghai Island, is also a Primordial True Saint. Although he is not as powerful as you or me, he is not weak either. Do you mean you and I should join forces to invade Canghai Island?"

Yang Mei spoke, her brows furrowing slightly. Qianmu was also a Primordial True Saint, with considerable cultivation and power. The two of them working together could take down Qianmu, but Yang Mei did not want to create unnecessary trouble before establishing the market.

"It's not that complicated. I already killed Thousand Eyes in the Heavenly Demon Realm."

Taiwei nodded and briefly recounted his experiences in the Heavenly Demon Realm. After listening to Taiwei's account, Yang Mei's face showed a hint of emotion.

"A Primordial True Saint is almost as old as the sun and moon in the Great Primordial World. Since the beginning of the Great Primordial World, there have been less than twenty Primordial True Saints who have fallen. If I remember correctly, you alone have killed six of them."

"Pretty much. If we don't count the Taotie from the previous era, then there are indeed six."

"In other words, you killed seven Primordial True Saints all by yourself. You need to rein in your temper. If you keep causing trouble everywhere, be careful that you don't incur the wrath of the masses one day."

Yang Mei looked at Taiwei and advised him that Taiwei nowadays has no friends in the prehistoric world except for Fuxi, Nuwa and himself. Yang Mei still hopes that Taiwei can make more friends.

"Don't worry, even if all the Primordial True Saints of the Great Primordial World attacked together, I am confident that I can save my life."

Taiwei revealed a confident look and slowly stood up: "Let's go. You and I will go and bring Canghai Island over first. Although Qianmu is dead, I think he should have left a way to revive him on Canghai Island. Let's set off as soon as possible so that Qianmu doesn't recover to his peak condition."

Yang Mei nodded, glanced at Bei Yi below who were still engaged in a life-or-death battle, and sighed.

With a single step, Taiwei and Yangmei appeared directly in front of the portal on Penglai Island, their figures engulfed by the surging torrent of time and space.

With the help of this creation treasure with the attribute of spacetime, and Yang Mei's own mastery of the Great Dao of Spacetime, Taiwei and Yang Mei transformed into a rainbow and passed through the bizarre and wonderful spacetime gap.

The power of the Taixu Lock and the Nine Li Heavenly Demon intertwined, transforming into a light curtain that enveloped Taiwei and Yangmei. A thousand years later, Taiwei and Yangmei's bodies appeared on the shore of the North Sea.

As for the depths of the North Sea, the power of the Gate of Time and Space is still insufficient to reach them. Even just sending the two to the shores of the North Sea caused considerable damage to the Gate of Time and Space, and even consumed most of Yang Mei's power as well as the immense power of the Taixu Lock, a supreme treasure of the Taixu.

Standing on the shore of the North Sea, Taiwei looked at Yangmei, whose face was pale, shook his head and smiled. He opened his mouth and let out a long roar. Huge waves surged and a blue dragon leaped out of the sea, lifting Taiwei and Yangmei's figures on its head.

With a flick of its tail, the giant dragon's body pierced through the towering waves like a rainbow, then swiftly disappeared from the location of the various Canghai Islands.

"You should recuperate first. The Mountain and Sea Dragon Path can control the power of the dragon veins around me. Right now, the dragon veins within a radius of tens of millions of miles have been enveloped by its will. It shouldn't be long before we find Canghai Island."

Countless dragon and snake shadows swirled in Taiwei's eyes. Under Taiwei's control, the dragon veins spanning tens of millions of miles began to combine and arrange themselves, and a dragon vein array encompassing tens of millions of miles of sea area slowly took shape.

Although the great formation was formless and intangible, the speed of the azure dragon containing Taiwei and Yangmei increased by more than ten thousand times the instant it took shape. The azure rainbow pierced through the waves of the sea and stretched towards the depths of the North Sea.
