Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity
Chapter 472 A Contingency Plan
The world fell silent, shrouded in darkness. At this moment, only the Dao patterns before Han Mengnan shone brightly, emitting a golden light as Han Mengnan transformed into tiny specks of light and merged into them, becoming the sole source of light.
This light, gentle and mysterious, slowly spread to all directions of space. In this darkness, it was dazzling and eye-catching. In this darkness, it was the only one, eternal, and also the source.
It was as if someone had briefly removed the concept of light from the entire realm of enlightenment, causing the whole world to go dark, and the light converged on this tattoo, becoming its source.
"The Primordial Light... Dao Pattern!"
Even Yu Changsheng's mind was stirred when he saw these patterns, and his gaze sharpened.
These Dao patterns are completely different from the original Dao patterns that Yu Changsheng himself has condensed. Although they are both original Dao patterns, Yu Changsheng can clearly feel that these Dao patterns are more ancient, higher-level, and more mature.
The aura emanating from it was quite different from that that Yu Changsheng himself had condensed. It seemed not to be a newborn entity, but rather something that had existed since ancient times, for an extremely long time, since the beginning of heaven and earth, and had been passed down through the Enlightenment Realm ever since.
"The core of the Enlightenment Tower originated from the last fragment of energy left behind by the former Xuan Tian Holy Son. This energy contained a portion of his Dao patterns, and the Enlightenment Tower contains the original Dao pattern of light of the Xuan Tian Holy Son."
Han Mengnan's voice echoed from all directions, seemingly merging into the heavens and earth.
"It is precisely because of this unique Dao pattern that the Enlightenment Realm possesses the ability to refine all living things into Dao patterns. Over countless years, this Dao pattern, through a series of coincidences, developed sentience and thus became an artifact spirit."
"A hundred years ago, I had a battle with Chen Wencai. Although I escaped with my life, I was also targeted by the spirit of the Enlightenment Realm. It merged with me, wanting to replace me and escape when the Enlightenment Tower reopened. Thus, I became who I am today, both Han Mengnan and the spirit of the Enlightenment Realm."
Han Mengnan's voice unconsciously carried a hint of laughter, and the halo of the primordial Dao patterns of light continued to ripple across the sky, illuminating all directions.
"Now, the time is ripe. All I need to do is possess you, and then I can smoothly leave this Enlightenment Realm. At that time, the world will be vast, and I can roam freely. With your physical body, it's not impossible for me to cultivate back to the level of the Xuan Tian Saint Son I once was."
Han Mengnan chuckled, her tone tinged with smugness. After she finished speaking, Meng Wu'an and Li Minghan were both astonished, while Yu Changsheng remained calm and unmoved.
"You don't seem surprised at all?"
Han Mengnan asked curiously, her body completely turning into light spots and merging into the Dao of Light. The Dao of Light swayed, and an attraction pulled at the Heavenly Sword Pavilion's inheritance seed in Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness, causing Yu Changsheng's mind to tremble and a sense of pressure to arise.
"It's not really unexpected; the reasons you've had along the way haven't been exactly hidden."
Yu Changsheng nodded, his brows furrowing slightly as he sensed the Heavenly Sword Pavilion's inheritance surging within his sea of consciousness.
From the moment his Five Elements Primal Dao Patterns reached perfection, he vaguely sensed the strangeness of Han Mengnan's state, which seemed different from beings in the Enlightenment Realm. Furthermore, relying on the attraction between the Primal Dao Patterns, he had a vague guess about the Primal Dao Pattern of Light.
Both Chen Tianci and Chen Wencai used the beings of the Enlightenment Realm to feed on blood in order to alleviate the refining of the Enlightenment Realm's rules. However, Han Mengnan said that she did not need to do so, which confirmed Yu Changsheng's guess.
Chen Tianci and Chen Wencai also noticed this, which is why they said that something was wrong with Han Mengnan.
That is indeed the case today.
"Interesting. So what if you realized it? It's too late now. I don't know if you're confident or just overconfident!"
Han Mengnan chuckled. Although she was somewhat surprised, she didn't pay too much attention. In the next instant, the Dao of Light swayed and turned into tiny specks of light that surged toward Yu Changsheng's forehead, intending to enter his sea of consciousness.
Yu Changsheng's mind trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to stop it, but at this moment, the Heavenly Sword Pavilion's inheritance seed in his sea of consciousness suddenly erupted with boundless sword intent, raging in all directions and churning his sea of consciousness. An immense pressure suddenly suppressed Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness.
"uh-huh?!"
Yu Changsheng's face turned pale in an instant. He groaned, blood flowed from his seven orifices, and his mouth and nose throbbed. He felt dizzy and his defenses against Han Mengnan crumbled at this moment, unable to stop her in the slightest.
"Your body is mine now!"
If the light spot successfully enters Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness, it contains Han Mengnan's will and soul, like a robber who forcibly breaks into a house and begins to occupy it.
Han Mengnan roared, her tone filled with undisguised greed. Her divine soul emerged in Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness, transforming into a vast will that stirred up a terrifying wave, frantically eroding Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness, searching for his true spirit, and wanting to completely annihilate him.
"Boom!!"
His sea of consciousness surged, golden waves crashing against the sky, as Yu Changsheng's will resisted and surged, fiercely attacking Han Mengnan's soul, attempting to annihilate it.
"Heh. You can't stop me."
Han Mengnan chuckled, a hint of disdain in her eyes. She remained unperturbed, her Dao patterns of light flashing, instantly connecting with the Heavenly Sword Pavilion's inheritance seed at the core of Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness, stirring up endless sword intent that suddenly erupted within his sea of consciousness with boundless sharpness.
"Whoosh!"
The sword intent roared, transforming into an invisible burst of sword energy. As a result, layer upon layer of golden waves were cleaved open, cutting through all obstacles. The sword intent was like a rainbow, suppressing the entire sea of consciousness. No matter how much Yu Changsheng struggled, it was to no avail.
The Seed of Sword Dao was originally planted by Han Mengnan into Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness. It is both the inheritance of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion and something that Han Mengnan had secretly tampered with long ago. At this moment, it has become a weapon in Han Mengnan's hands.
This allows it to smoothly enter Yu Changsheng's sea of consciousness, be controlled by it, and suppress Yu Changsheng's resistance.
This is both a legacy and a burden. Everything is within Han Mengnan's plan, all in preparation for this moment of possession!
"My legacy isn't so easily obtained; how can you acquire it without paying a price?"
Han Mengnan chuckled, her tone cheerful. Her sea of consciousness trembled, countless waves surging, but all were ruthlessly suppressed by the Seed of Sword Dao, unable to stir up any waves. Yu Changsheng's soul roared and struggled fiercely, but all of its power was restrained and suppressed.
"Enjoy your last moments. Don't worry, I will take your place and continue living your life."
Han Mengnan said softly, shook her head, and stepped across the sea of consciousness, heading deeper into the depths where Yu Changsheng's true spirit resided.
"Now, all I need to do is devour your true spirit and inherit your memories, and this physical body of yours will be completely mine. Heavenly Dao Golden Core, Primal Dao Patterns... and Saint-level cultivation techniques, such a fine body, only I can perfectly control it."
Han Mengnan murmured, her tone unconsciously carrying a hint of obsession and fanaticism. Originally, her plan was to possess any one of the three people, including Yu Changsheng. She had originally set her sights on Li Minghan because Li Minghan's soul was the weakest, and she was 100% confident of success once she possessed him.
Yu Changsheng's soul was the most profound, and it was not her target from the beginning. It was only later, when Yu Changsheng inscribed the first primordial Dao pattern, that her target quietly changed.
Her origin was the primordial Dao pattern, so the attraction of the primordial Dao pattern to her was absolute. Therefore, her later efforts to help Yu Changsheng inscribe the primordial Dao pattern were, in her view, not so much helping Yu Changsheng, but simply creating a perfect shell for herself.
"And to ensure absolute success, I even used the Heavenly Sword Pavilion's inheritance as bait, planting a seed in your sea of consciousness beforehand. All of this was for today's possession, catching you completely off guard. What can you possibly use to resist?!"
These thoughts flashed through Han Mengnan's mind. She took a deep breath, looked at Yu Changsheng's true spirit in front of her, and licked her lips.
"Your divine soul power is sealed, and your true spirit is weak, yet you remain quite calm. What, do you have some other tricks up your sleeve?"
Han Mengnan chuckled, brazenly scrutinizing Yu Changsheng's somewhat illusory true spirit, her gaze burning with a hint of caution.
Yu Changsheng's true spirit remained calm, glancing indifferently at Han Mengnan, seemingly unaware of the impending danger. He said serenely, "Whether I have a backup plan or not, you'll find out once you try."
I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.
His words were steady, without a trace of panic, which instead stirred a slight ripple in Han Mengnan's heart. Her eyes narrowed as she stared intently at Yu Changsheng's true spirit, scrutinizing it carefully before letting out a smile.
"Bluster, interesting. Hopefully, I'll swallow you whole soon, but don't let you scream in pain."
After saying that, Han Mengnan's soul trembled, and with a flick of her finger, endless light burst forth, enveloping Yu Changsheng's true spirit.
This light was strange; it wasn't scorching hot, yet it carried a dissolving power that could refine all things. The moment it touched Yu Changsheng's true spirit, Yu Changsheng's true spirit trembled and couldn't help but let out a wail, and his true spirit became somewhat illusory.
"Aren't you going to make a move?"
Han Mengnan sneered, flicked her finger, and the Dao of Light patterns flashed, bursting out with even more powerful radiance, sweeping towards Yu Changsheng's true spirit, intending to completely refine and devour it.
"Roar! Ro ...
Yu Changsheng roared, his face contorted in pain. Light flowed down, and in the next instant, the eight primordial Dao patterns belonging to Yu Changsheng seemed to be stimulated, surging and trembling against the Dao patterns of light.
Wow!!
The five elements flowed, wind and thunder swirled, like a dream, and eight primordial Dao patterns exerted their power, forming a protective barrier that slammed fiercely into the light of refining!
"Sizzle sizzle..."
Like water crashing against the bank, or like drifting clouds slowly, Han Mengnan raised an eyebrow and smiled. The original Dao patterns of light trembled, and the aura of probability flowed out, transforming into large swaths of dazzling brilliance that swept across the land!
Click, click, click...
In an instant, the five elements dissolved, the wind and thunder vanished, the illusory Dao patterns were forcibly dispelled, and all the protection collapsed in an instant. Yu Changsheng's expression changed, and the refining light once again swept fiercely towards Yu Changsheng's true spirit like a hungry wolf!
"Is that all you've got?"
Han Mengnan sneered, her words contemptuous, yet her attack was ruthless. The Dao patterns of light flickered, and amidst the tremors, an ancient aura flowed forth, the refining light dazzling, enveloping Yu Changsheng's true spirit.
Yu Changsheng's true spirit's face twisted in agony, and he couldn't help but let out a low roar. As the refining light degraded his true spirit body, it became illusory. Intense pain swept through his entire body, his sea of consciousness trembled, and his divine soul power tried to awaken, but it was fiercely suppressed by the Heavenly Sword Pavilion's inheritance seed, leaving him unable to move.
"It seems that's really how it is. If there are no backup plans, then it can end here."
Han Mengnan lowered her eyes, a smile playing on her lips, a hint of excitement flashing across her face. After exhaling a deep breath, her divine soul suddenly opened its maw wide and fiercely sucked in Yu Changsheng's true spirit! A dazzling and intense light of refining emanated from her mouth, and an even more terrifying suction forcefully pulled Yu Changsheng's true spirit, devouring it!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!"
The Heavenly Dao Golden Core trembled, and the primordial Dao patterns erupted, but all they did was struggle in vain. Under this terrifying devouring power, Yu Changsheng's true spirit seemed to be about to collapse, spreading out crack after crack, a shocking sight.
Boom?!
"No!!"
Yu Changsheng's true spirit cried out in despair, his face filled with hopelessness. His true spirit was shattered into pieces and enveloped by the light of refining, seemingly about to completely collapse and fall into Han Mengnan's mouth, where it would be devoured.
"Your body is mine! From now on, you are me, and I am you!! Why resist?!"
Han Mengnan's face twisted in a grimace. She inhaled again, and the refining light formed a vortex, spinning wildly. Just as Yu Changsheng's true spirit was filled with despair, a crack slowly spread from head to toe across its surface...
"Click..."
The next instant, the true spirit cracked open, and the object that was wrapped in the true spirit also fully emerged!
This was actually a small, illusory sword, entirely made of dark silver with golden gilding. Mysterious patterns spread out gradually, densely covering the blade, subtly revealing itself! Each pattern seemed to resonate with heaven and earth, forming a seamless whole.
If you look closely, you'll see that each of these lines is actually a Dao pattern! But they exude an ancient and domineering aura. Each one is not an ordinary Dao pattern, but a primordial Dao pattern. They intertwine with each other, densely packed, seemingly forming a unique array. Their number is endless, breathtaking!
Buzz! !
In an instant, his sea of consciousness trembled, as if it could not withstand the appearance of this sword, and cracks spread out!
An ancient, raging aura transformed into a sword aura capable of annihilating heaven and earth, and suddenly slashed out!
"What?! How is this possible?!"
Han Mengnan screamed in shock, her face suddenly changing to one of terror and disbelief. She quickly retreated, but the sword had already locked onto her and caught her completely off guard, making it impossible for her to dodge!
"The aura of the Holy Son of Xuantian! The Xuantian Sword?!"
Han Mengnan was shocked and enraged. The next moment, a flash of sword light appeared, and everything came to an abrupt halt. (End of Chapter)
