Honghuang Taihuang

Chapter 37 Flowers Bloom in an Instant, Inkstone Gourd

Amidst the dazzling bursts of sparks, the White Tiger, surrounded by the Gengxin metal aura, completely ignored the piercing and tearing starlight and charged towards Guang Chengzi, who wielded the power of the stars.

Endless starlight flickered and exploded, the White Tiger roared repeatedly, and gales, thunderstorms, and golden light continuously gathered and burst forth, helping Taiwei temporarily block Guang Chengzi's Star-Shifting Prodigy.

Taiwei knew that the white tiger evolved from the White Tiger Heavenly Soul Pill alone could not stop Guangchengzi. He only wanted to use the white tiger to test the power of the great supernatural ability of shifting stars and changing constellations.

As it turns out, Guang Chengzi's mastery of the Star-Shifting Divine Power was not perfect, just like his previous mastery of the Yin-Yang Reversal Divine Power, which was equally crude.

Among the thirty-six great divine abilities of the Xuanmen, the three great divine abilities of manipulating creation, reversing yin and yang, and shifting stars and changing constellations are ranked first. These three great divine abilities not only contain the profound meaning of the Great Dao and are extremely difficult to cultivate, but also involve the evolution and changes of many great Daos of heaven and earth.

Ordinary Xuanmen cultivators simply cannot master these abilities. Although Guang Chengzi mastered almost all of the Heavenly Gang Great Divine Powers by virtue of his Dao Integration state, he barely managed to master the previous Yin-Yang Reversal and the current Star Shifting and Constellation Changing abilities.

Leaving aside the previous Yin-Yang reversal, it didn't have any substantial impact on Taiwei. However, this new Star Shifting and Dipper Changing Great Divine Power can only be used against Taiwei alone. As for the White Tiger that appears later, the so-called star suppression and weakening power has not appeared at all.

The White Tiger possesses strength approaching that of a peak Golden Immortal. Even if Taiwei himself doesn't take action, it will take Guangchengzi some time to deal with the White Tiger.

"The state of merging with the Dao is extremely dangerous for anyone. This danger not only means that one's own will will be gradually eroded by the power of the Heavenly Dao, but also that the Heavenly Dao's way of thinking is not the same as that of living beings."

"Living beings know how to seek advantage and avoid harm, but the Way of Heaven will only eliminate the existence that poses the greatest threat to itself first, while ignoring the real danger."

Taiwei's figure passed through the white tiger that was biting the sun star like a phantom, and his figure transformed into thousands of magnetic forces to shuttle through the sea of ​​stars.

With an indifferent expression, Guang Chengzi was controlling the power of countless stars to suppress the frenzied White Tiger and no longer paid attention to Taiwei. This is the flaw in the state of Dao Integration.

Having merged with the Heavenly Dao, the one controlling this body is no longer Guang Chengzi, but a wisp of the Heavenly Dao's will. As far as the Heavenly Dao is concerned, the threat posed by the White Tiger, whose aura bursts forth and shakes down countless stars, is far greater than that posed by Taiwei, whose essence and dantian are sealed.

Taiwei easily arrived behind Guangchengzi, and the Seven Star Dragon Abyss sword at his waist instantly slashed out, a dazzling sword light transforming into a long rainbow that pierced through Guangchengzi's chest.

With a palm strike of his left hand, Taiwei unleashed a burst of violent spiritual energy. He took a slight step back and looked at Guang Chengzi, who had been knocked back three hundred feet by his palm and whose face was pale. Taiwei smiled and said, "For Long Qiao's sake, hand over the gourd, and I can spare you this time."

"I thought you would give me this gourd out of respect for Long Qiao."

Guang Chengzi, having exited the Dao Integration state, once again displayed a frivolous expression. Although he had been severely injured by Taiwei's sword, Guang Chengzi showed no fear whatsoever.

"Although Long Qiao has done me some favors, he doesn't have that much influence over me."

With a thought, Taiwei unleashed a roar from the blood-stained white tiger, shattering the collapsing Star Sea.

A series of blazing white Gengxin metal energies completely sealed off the void around Taiwei and Guangchengzi. Upon seeing this, Guangchengzi's smile froze slightly, and he frowned as he looked at Taiwei.

"You're quite cautious. It seems your status before the tribulation was much higher than what Long Qiao and I deduced."

Guang Chengzi released Yin and Yang energies from his fingertips, which landed in the shrinking Geng and Xin metal energies around him. Thousands of brilliant lights burst forth, and strands of Yin and Yang energies were instantly shattered. Seeing this, Guang Chengzi slowly withdrew his aura and looked at Taiwei with a helpless expression.

"It seems I have no choice but to give this magic gourd to you."

Guang Chengzi's left hand emitted a faint glow, revealing a dark gourd. He looked at Taiwei and threw the gourd at him. However, Taiwei didn't even look at it. Thousands of golden lights pierced through him, tearing the gourd into countless pieces on its way.

Taiwei looked at the beautiful flower that flashed by in the explosion, and a cold look appeared on his face as he looked at Guang Chengzi: "One of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Divine Powers, Flower Blooming in an Instant. Do you want to use this to freeze my time? Unfortunately, I have to tell you that I also know this divine power."

"I'm getting more and more curious about your identity before your reincarnation. Even within the Xuanmen sect, very few people know about this supernatural ability."

Seeing that his little tricks had been exposed, Guang Chengzi showed no embarrassment whatsoever, and the aura he had previously suppressed surged once more.

I sincerely hope I will never see you again.

Guang Chengzi looked at Taiwei and sighed. In the next instant, a dazzling golden light pierced through the sky and passed through the Gengxin metal energy that was killing all things.

Taiwei's eyes narrowed, and the Two Extreme Magnetic Blade slashed out in an instant. Countless magnetic particles enveloped Guang Chengzi, who was surrounded by golden light. However, when the light blade struck, the feeling was one of emptiness. Taiwei was stunned as he watched Guang Chengzi disappear without a trace in just one breath.

"Golden light rising from the ground and standing upright without a shadow, it seems I underestimated you."

Taiwei noticed that Guangchengzi's aura had completely disappeared, but he didn't pay much attention to it. A smile appeared on his lips, and Taiwei opened his left hand, revealing a treasure gourd that was as warm and lustrous as jade and extremely deep.

The endless stream of worldly desires and mortal energy continuously flowed into the magic gourd, enhancing its essence.

The Inkstone Gourd, a mid-grade innate spiritual root, is an innate spiritual root formed by the interweaving and fusion of the great powers of Heaven, Earth, and Man. Unlike ordinary innate spiritual roots, although this Inkstone Gourd is a creation of nature, it is essentially closely related to the acquired power of Man.

The Inkstone Gourd can devour acquired human fortune and worldly desires, slowly transforming itself. Once fully evolved, the Inkstone Gourd can transform into a superior innate spiritual root, which is comparable to the origin of the Primordial True Saint.

If Taiwei originally intended to refine the Inkstone Gourd into one of his magical treasures, he now intends to use it as a vessel for his other Dao fruits.

Such a foundation can directly reduce the enormous energy consumed by Taiwei in its own gestation and cultivation.
