Honghuang: Eat a Hunyuan Daluo

Chapter 313 Wu Yunxian's Great Victory, the Western Sect's Fate

"Trying to escape? Not so easy! Stop right there!" Wu Yunxian roared, his voice booming and carrying immense magical power that shook the void, attempting to pull the fleeing Kun Dao out of the spatial turbulence.

Regardless, Kun Dao's cultivation level was at the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint, and in terms of the strength of her magical power, Wu Yun Xian was far inferior. Therefore, Wu Yun Xian's sonic attack did not deter Kun Dao from her escape.

Seeing that the sound wave attack could not hold Kundao, Wuyun Xian instantly caused layers of pure white lotuses to bloom around her. These lotuses were not physical objects, but were formed from pure magical power, and each petal contained profound spatial laws.

Then, surrounded by white lotuses, Wu Yunxian suddenly transformed into a blinding white light and vanished from the spot with a "whoosh".

This is Bai Jing's improved White Lotus Escape Technique!

This version of the White Lotus Escape Technique can be practiced by any cultivator regardless of their background, and can unleash its maximum power.

The original Red Cloud Escape Technique can only be fully effective for beings whose true form is an element, such as Red Cloud, the Three Immortals of Sanxiao, and Zhao Gongming.

Bai Jing's original improved version of the White Lotus Escape Technique allowed any creature with a relatively light body to unleash more than 90% of the speed of the original Red Cloud Escape Technique.

As Bai Jing's cultivation level continued to improve, he also made several improvements to the White Lotus Escape Technique.

The version given to Tongtian incorporates Bai Jing's understanding of the Great Dao of Space. When using this escape technique, one can merge with space, and in one leap, one can travel 108,000 miles, making the world seem within reach, almost unrestricted by space.

When Bai Jing taught this escape technique to Tongtian Jiaozhu, Tongtian Jiaozhu knew that a good escape technique would make it easier for his disciples to survive the great calamity. Therefore, Tongtian immediately followed Bai Jing's instructions and taught the escape technique to all his disciples of the Jie Sect.

The reason why Wu Yunxian was so highly regarded by Tongtian was naturally because he was exceptionally talented and had extremely high comprehension.

Having immersed himself in the White Lotus Escape Technique for a long time, he has now mastered it to a high level. His mastery of this escape technique is superb. In the blink of an eye, Wu Yunxian overtook the Kun Dao who was using the escape technique.

Kun Dao originally thought that with her ultimate cultivation of the Golden Light of the Earth, she could at least have a chance to survive. However, she did not expect that Wu Yunxian's speed was so terrifying. In the blink of an eye, he blocked her way and sealed off all escape routes.

Kun Dao's expression changed drastically, her eyes filled with shock and anger. She never expected that Wu Yun Xian would have such a top-notch movement technique!
"As expected of a disciple of a sage, his foundation is indeed profound!" Kun Dao thought to herself. At this point, she also knew that escape was a vain hope, and the only option was to fight to the death.

So Kundao gritted her teeth, a resolute glint in her eyes. With a thought, two mysterious orbs of light flew out of her body, and then Kundao's good and evil corpses appeared almost at the same time.

The benevolent corpse was compassionate and solemn, draped in auspicious clouds; the malevolent corpse was filled with murderous intent, its face contorted in a ferocious manner. The two, one on the left and one on the right, carried completely different auras and attacked Wuyun Xian directly, clearly attempting to break the predicament with the combined attack of the three corpses.

Seeing this, Wu Yunxian remained completely calm. He had long been prepared for a full-scale war. Then, with a thought, his own benevolent self manifested, a Taoist with a gentle face and auspicious temperament, exuding righteous energy.

Wu Yunxian directed her benevolent corpse to meet Kun Dao's benevolent corpse.

The two benevolent corpses engaged in a contest of laws and supernatural powers on the flanks.

His true form, however, charged towards Kun Dao's true form and the ferocious corpse with overwhelming momentum.

Faced with the combined approach of Wu Yunxian's true form and the evil corpse, Kun Dao understood that there was no room for further reservations. With a clear shout, she unleashed her formidable mid-stage Quasi-Saint cultivation like a volcanic eruption.

Her surging magical power surged forth, causing chaos in the surrounding void. The rules of the primordial world manifested around her, and she instantly engaged in battle with Wuyun Xian.

Wu Yunxian held the ancient and heavy Hunyuan Hammer in his hand. This innate spiritual treasure was wielded so skillfully in his hands that it produced bursts of dragon roars and tiger howls, displaying unparalleled power!

Whether it was the sharp sword light of the Kun Dao body or the attack of the evil corpse containing strange power, all of them were blocked and neutralized by the unparalleled power of the Hunyuan Hammer, and even the opponent's aura fluctuated due to the counterattack.

Both sides were seasoned warriors, and their every move possessed earth-shattering power.

In the blink of an eye, they had already exchanged dozens of blows, each collision accompanied by earth-shattering roars and the shattering of laws, resulting in a stalemate for a time.

In the midst of this fierce battle, Wu Yunxian's eyes flashed like lightning as he keenly seized a fleeting opportunity. He feigned a weakness to lure Kun Dao and the evil corpse into pursuit, and then suddenly gathered his strength, unleashing the Hunyuan Hammer with immense power as it slammed down on Kun Dao's evil corpse!
"Boom!" A thunderous roar resounded through the heavens and earth, tearing apart the surrounding space. The violent force struck Kun Dao's evil corpse directly.

The evil corpse let out a shrill wail, its entire body twisted and deformed by the Hunyuan Hammer, and it flew backward, clearly suffering a severe injury.

However, the moment Wu Yunxian landed her attack, she seemed to have exhausted her strength, revealing a clear weakness – her back was wide open.

Kun Dao's true form had been keeping a close eye on Wu Yun Xian, so naturally she wouldn't let this excellent opportunity slip by. The longsword in her hand, flowing with golden light and containing sharp Geng metal energy, struck Wu Yun Xian's back with precision and without hesitation, like a venomous snake emerging from its hole!
A crisp, sharp metallic clang rang out, carrying an unreal quality.

Kun Dao was taken aback; something was clearly wrong with the feeling in his hand! There was no tearing sensation of flesh as expected, nor the obstruction of a shattered magical shield; it was more like striking an indestructible divine iron!

"Did you think I would reveal such an obvious flaw?" Wu Yunxian's slightly mocking, yet smug and calculating voice rang out from her side, coldly reaching Kun Dao's ears.

The next second, accompanied by a faint light, a profound and complex array pattern appeared on Wu Yunxian's back. This array pattern was interwoven with countless talismans, exuding an indestructible aura. It was the top-level defensive array that Duobao Daoren, the senior disciple of the Jie Sect, had personally inscribed on Wu Yunxian's body!

The formation is so sturdy that even a late-stage Quasi-Saint cultivator would need to launch several attacks with all their might to barely break it, let alone Kun Dao who is only at the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint!

Kun Dao now understood that he had fallen into Wu Yun Xian's trap. He hadn't shown any weakness at all; it was all a trap to lure her in!
Just as Wu Yunxian's heavy Hunyuan Hammer, after knocking away the evil corpse, turned around again with terrifying power and was about to smash down on her head!
If this strike hits, with the power of the Hunyuan Hammer and Wuyun Xian's cultivation, Kun Dao will most likely be annihilated, body and soul, and his life and death will be extinguished!

The shadow of death loomed over her, and Kun Dao felt an unprecedented crisis. She gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with extreme pain and reluctance, but also with a final determination. This was the only way to interrupt Wu Yunxian's offensive and buy herself a chance to escape!
With a heavy heart, she gave the most extreme order to the vicious corpse that was sent flying backward and seriously injured—self-destruct!
"boom!!!"

A massive explosion, a hundred times more terrifying than any previous collision, suddenly erupted!

The self-destruction of a mid-stage Quasi-Saint evil corpse generates devastating energy, like the collapse of a miniature universe.

A violent torrent of energy instantly swept across the entire battlefield, tearing space apart and forming a massive black hole that devoured everything around it.

Wu Yunxian was the first to be hit, blasted away by the sudden shockwave of the self-destruction! Fortunately, the defensive array on his body activated in time, blocking most of the destructive force. Although he was in a sorry state, he did not suffer any substantial damage. As the earth-shattering explosion gradually subsided and the aftershocks of energy dissipated, Wu Yunxian steadied himself and looked back at where Kun Dao had been standing.

All that remained was a shattered space and lingering energy; Kun Dao's figure had vanished without a trace.

Wu Yunxian sighed with slight regret. He had failed to kill Kun Dao on the spot, which ultimately left behind a future problem.

But upon closer reflection, the fact that Kun Dao was forced to self-destruct his evil corpse to save his life was enough. With the self-destruction of the evil corpse, Kun Dao lost one of his two corpses, which inevitably damaged his foundation and caused his cultivation to plummet from the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint to the early stage of Quasi-Saint!

Thinking of this, Wu Yunxian's mood improved again. Previously, Kun Dao was a small realm ahead of him, and he was no match for her. He was beaten and forced to flee in a sorry state.

Now that the two are at the same level, and Kun Dao's strength has been weakened by the loss of one of his corpses, Wu Yun Xian is absolutely confident that she can kill Kun Dao on the spot if they meet again, leaving him no chance to escape!
The commotion caused by the self-destruction of the evil corpse of Kun Dao naturally attracted the attention of many powerful beings in the prehistoric world.

"What a remarkable Wuyun Xian! He actually managed to force a cultivator with a higher cultivation level than himself to self-destruct his evil corpse. Truly astonishing!" exclaimed Maitreya, who was secretly observing.

“Brother Maitreya, now is not the time to watch the show. The Second Master sent us to find Shen Gongbao,” the Arhat Subduing Dragon reminded him.

Maitreya sighed upon hearing this and said, "It's not that I haven't tried my best, but we've been away from Mount Ling for several months and have searched all over Xiqi without finding any trace of Junior Brother Shen Gongbao. I really don't know where to look for him anymore."

After Jiang Ziya was appointed as the prime minister of Xiqi, Jieyin and Zhunti waited for Shen Gongbao to make his move.

As a result, this wait led to the uprising of the Western Zhou.

Shen Gongbao seemed to have vanished, and did not participate in any of Xiqi's affairs at all.

The two Western Saints were getting anxious, which is why they sent Maitreya and the Eighteen Arhats out to search for Shen Gongbao.

As for why Shen Gongbao's location wasn't calculated, it's because with the complete war between the Shang Dynasty and Xiqi, the entire prehistoric world was shrouded in calamity energy. Let alone calculating the chosen one of the Investiture of the Gods, even calculating the location of an ordinary mortal would require considerable effort.

The two Western Saints couldn't find Shen Gongbao's location, which is why they sent their disciples to search for him.

In fact, Shen Gongbao was in Chaoge City at this time. In Shen Gongbao's view, the Mandate of Heaven for Xiqi was just the way of Heaven taking sides, and the Great Shang should be the true Mandate of Heaven.

So after leaving Xiqi, Shen Gongbao went to Da Shang, where he started as a city guard and has now risen to the rank of commander of a thousand men.

If he could advance further to become a commander of ten thousand men, he would have the opportunity to meet Emperor Xin. Shen Gongbao had been working hard towards this goal.

How could the disciples of the Western Sect possibly find Shen Gongbao in Xiqi?

In the Spirit Mountain, Zhunti's face was rather grim. So many disciples had been sent out, yet they still hadn't found Shen Gongbao. Where on earth had that fellow gone?

“Senior brother, could it be that Shen Gongbao was secretly killed by Yuanshi? Without Shen Gongbao, the only one left to command Fei Xiong is Jiang Ziya, which would be beneficial to the Chan Sect,” Zhunti said.

Jieyin shook his head and said, "Junior brother, Yuanshi is not the kind of person to act like that. He considers himself the true descendant of Pangu and is extremely arrogant. He would never act like that. I think Shen Gongbao's disappearance was his own choice."

"Then, senior brother, what should we do next?"

"If we can't find Shen Gongbao, we'll stop looking and stick to our plan."

“Then I will go to the Buddhist Kingdom and release the suppressed ferocious beasts, letting them wreak havoc within the Great Shang territory and damage the Great Shang’s fortune.”

Jieyin nodded and said nothing more.

Meanwhile, on the other side, there is the fairy island of Yingzhou.

Bai Jing is studying the "Nine Revolutions Primordial Technique" deduced by Taiqing Laozi.

This "Nine Revolutions Primordial Technique" is a technique that Taiqing Laozi developed based on his inherited memories and combined with the primordial and heavenly origins he extracted.

Bai Jing's Nine Revolutions Profound Technique has now reached the peak of the eighth revolution, and he is only one opportunity away from the ninth revolution. After studying the Nine Revolutions Yuan Technique, Bai Jing had a feeling that if he practiced this technique, it could help him break through to the ninth revolution as soon as possible.

The ninth stage of the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique is the Physical Body Heavenly Dao Realm, where the body merges with the three thousand Great Daos, and one is fearless even when facing the Heavenly Dao directly.

Bai Jing has now entered the gates of 2685 Great Daos, but he is still 315 Daos away from comprehending the Three Thousand Great Daos. This is why Bai Jing's cultivation is stuck at the peak of the eighth level of the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.

This is also the reason why the Nine Revolutions Mystic Art is stuck at the peak of the eighth revolution.

Now, it seems that the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong can help Bai Jing break through the Nine Revolutions of Xuan Gong without him having to comprehend the remaining 315 Great Daos. This shows that the inheritance left by the Great God Pangu is mutually reinforcing.

With the Investiture of the Gods calamity intensifying and an opportunity for further advancement presented, Bai Jing naturally wouldn't give it up.

With a thought, a vast amount of spiritual materials and ores appeared before Bai Jing.

Then Bai Jing slowly closed his eyes, and his whole body transformed into a black hole. The spiritual materials and ores were swallowed by the black hole, gradually strengthening Bai Jing's physical body.

At the same time, Bai Jing activated the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong, and his primordial spirit and physical body began to resonate with each other. Simultaneously, the ninth axe mark in Bai Jing's sea of ​​consciousness also manifested, jointly propelling Bai Jing to begin his transformation.

In the final moments before his consciousness sank into chaos, Bai Jing adjusted the time field within the dojo; one day outside was equivalent to a thousand years within the time field.
