The Fate of Eternal Life

Chapter 145 The Death of the Taiyin Divine Child and Another Breakthrough

"Frozen Forever!"

The Divine Child of Taiyin finally unleashed a forbidden secret technique. The Taiyin Holy Power surged, freezing even the sky and sealing Ye Fan within, making him invisible.

Below, everyone was moved, marveling at the power of the Taiyin Divine Child. However, when their gazes fell upon another young man, they all shuddered. The Taiyin Divine Child was unaware that they had personally witnessed this man kill a living fossil with a single punch—a truly terrifying scene.

"The Taiyin Divine Child is doomed! This must be some old monster who has started anew!" Everyone thought to themselves.

However, to everyone's surprise, Ning Qingyi did not make a move, but simply watched silently.

The Taiyin Divine Child was seen by the people of Ziwei as a promising young talent, but Ning Qingyi considered him nothing more than a third-rate individual.

His physique was inferior to that of a saint, and he couldn't break through the Eight Forbidden Zones. The only thing he could do was cultivate the Emperor's Scripture, which was passable. In front of Ye Fan, he was nothing more than a clay chicken or a clay dog.

Sure enough, a blazing sun rose, and its immense holy power melted away the icy sky.

Ye Fan broke free of his restraints and unleashed the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist once more. With each strike, the entire world seemed on the verge of shattering.

The battle between the two quickly intensified, and soon Taiyin Shenzi was at a complete disadvantage. Even though he summoned a black banner and took out a king's death knell, he was still no match for Ye Fan and was completely restrained by the "Soldier" secret technique.

"boom!"

Finally, the Taiyin Divine Child unleashed his most powerful killing move: a skull with seven black orifices, as black as ink jade!

The skull of an ancient sage!
Its surface is covered with and interwoven Dao patterns, forming intricate designs. The seven orifices spew forth the most primordial Taiyin Holy Power, as if it could refine this world.

"That is the head of the ancient Empress Taiyin. Her foundation was seized, and she herself was beheaded and refined into this form."

Someone revealed their origins, which shocked and angered Ye Fan, while Ning Qingyi's expression turned icy.

"Even the Queen of the Human Kingdom has been humiliated to this extent," he said coldly.

Ye Fan's expression was solemn. Clearly, he had encountered a major problem, a method that could definitely pose a fatal threat to him.

"Boom!"

With a soft sound, the saint's skull crashed down, and in an instant, the entire sky was shattered, and a black rift valley was born out of thin air, about to swallow Ye Fan!
Ye Fan had no choice but to use the "Move" secret technique to quickly leave the original spot, and when he reappeared, he was already a thousand miles away.

The Taiyin Divine Child revealed a surprised look, clearly astonished by Ye Fan's extreme speed. However, just as he summoned the Sage's Skull again, he discovered a powerful force coming from the sky!

"brush!"

The saint's head transformed into a streak of black light and fell into Ning Qingyi's hands like a swallow returning to its nest.

"Wow!"

The Taiyin Divine Child sensed that an irresistible force had ruthlessly erased the mark he had left on the Sage's skull, completely losing control of the weapon.

"Who are you, daring to ambush me!" the Taiyin Divine Child roared in fury.

This is the most precious treasure of the clan. If it weren't for special reasons, it would have become a legendary holy weapon long ago. But even so, it is only one step away from becoming one, as it contains immortal divinity!
If it were lost in his hands, even if he were the son of a god, his position would be shaken.

Ning Qingyi glanced at him coldly, and then Ye Fan attacked again. This time, the Taiyin Divine Child, who had lost the skull of the Saint, was completely at a disadvantage.

Ning Qing examined the sage's skull in his hand. It was as black as an abyss. Having lost the support of divine power, the seven holes slowly dimmed, its power diminished sharply, and it gradually fell into slumber.

He used the "Lin" secret technique to sense the skull of the sage, and immediately captured a will!

"...I hate it...the rebellion...kill! kill! kill! kill! kill! kill! kill! kill! kill!"

This is the deep hatred of the descendants of Taiyin. Even after countless years and the loss of vital energy, this deep resentment is still hidden in the skull. It is impossible to erase it even if all the water in the Three Rivers and Five Lakes is poured out!

Ning Qingyi couldn't help but think of her disciple Jiang Tingting, who was far away in Beidou. She also had the blood of the Taiyin Emperor flowing in her veins, and if she knew what had happened to Ziwei, she would probably be very sad.

"I apologize for disturbing your peaceful rest."

Ning Qingyi used the Lesser Destiny Technique to activate the "Soldier" secret technique, gradually erasing the divine runes on the saint's skull. Undoubtedly, this would greatly affect the divine power of the magical artifact, and when the divine runes were completely removed, it would be no different from ordinary bones, which would be absolutely heartbreaking.

But Ning Qingyi will still do it. Since he intends to seek justice for the Taiyin Emperor lineage, he will not allow such a weapon to remain in the world.

Under the immense power of the Lesser Destiny Technique and the Secret of the Character "Soldier", the divine patterns on the skull of this saint were quickly disintegrated, and the divine power within it gradually weakened. However, even so, the divine power of this weapon did not resist, but allowed Ning Qingyi to do as he pleased.

In the end, the divine markings engraved on the skull were completely erased, and the skull lost all its mystique.

Ning Qingyi took out the magic bell from the Lingbao Dao Meridian and slowly shook it, the chanting of the Salvation Scripture echoing between heaven and earth.

"The accumulated yang becomes the spirit, and there is form within the spirit. The form is born from the sun, and the sun is born from the moon. The accumulated yin forms the form, and there is spirit within the form..."

Between heaven and earth, a mysterious power was gathering, slowly nourishing this saint's skull.

"Teng!"

The sage's skull suddenly rose from his hand, outlining a human figure in the sunlight, and looked in a distant direction, letting out a deep sigh.

"What a regret..."

Ning Qing heard these words, and at the same time, Ye Fan used a swift Six Paths Reincarnation Fist to completely obliterate the Taiyin Divine Child.

The ancient city of Tianyuan was completely silent. As they watched the two madmen, a mix of emotions surged within them.

"Huh, this skull..." Ye Fan walked over, staring at the skull with a surprised expression.

The sage's skull gradually cracked, eventually turning into dust, which was carried away by the wind and disappeared into the world, never to be seen again.

"The Divine Child of Taiyin is dead, Qingyi, what's the next step?" Ye Fan asked solemnly.

Ning Qing was stunned and speechless. He said, "It is said that there is a place outside Tianyuan City where the former Taiyin Emperor comprehended the Dharma. Let's go and take a look."

Although Ye Fan had some doubts, he didn't ask any questions. He casually asked someone for directions and then transformed into a rainbow and disappeared.

Only the people remaining in the city were left, their voices clamoring.

Outside Tianyuan City, there is a barren land where, according to legend, the ancient Emperor Taiyin once lived, leaving behind countless tales.

Upon arrival, the two discovered that the location was not far from where they had landed.

"Is this the place where the Taiyin Emperor comprehended the Dharma?" Ye Fan was somewhat astonished. He had experienced the Taiyin Holy Power, which was extremely gentle and Yin, but this place seemed to be scorched by the true fire of the sun, more like the place where the Sun Holy Emperor comprehended the Dharma.

Ning Qingyi looked at the molten red soil and said, "Yin gives rise to Yang, and Yang gives rise to Yin. The methods of the ancient emperors are naturally beyond our comprehension. I need to go into seclusion for a while. You will protect me. I have a premonition that I may embark on the path of enlightenment in Ziwei."

"I understand," Ye Fan said solemnly. Ning Qingyi unleashed the "Group" secret technique, his hands moving rapidly across the sky and earth. In an instant, countless array patterns appeared out of thin air, densely packed, vast and complex, engulfing this area. A vast light curtain enveloped this barren land.

This is an extremely complex and profound ancient formation, with killing intent at every step, completely sealing off this area!
"A corner of the Emperor's Formation!" Ye Fan was able to sense the extraordinary nature of this formation and showed a look of surprise.

Immediately afterwards, the great formation drew upon boundless chaotic energy, completely shrouding the area.

Seeing this, Ye Fan thought for a moment and then casually found a place to begin his cultivation.

In the secluded retreat, Ning Qingyi's expression was solemn as he unleashed the secret technique "Lin".

The "Lin" Secret is the ultimate result of the Boundless Heavenly Venerable's research on the Chaos Body. It allows cultivators to maintain a state of being in harmony with the myriad paths of heaven and earth, and is the strongest method for enlightenment.

In the next instant, the entire old land changed, began to glow, and wisps of Yin Holy Power emanated from somewhere.

Then, an immense and supreme aura permeated the past, present, and future, and burst forth in an instant!

A majestic and imposing figure appeared, with black hair flowing down his shoulders, looking down upon the world with an air of eternal loneliness in his eyes.

This is a phantom image of the former human emperor!
Ning Qingyi stirred up all the myriad paths of heaven and earth, manifesting them ten thousand years later. If this were to spread, it would surely horrify people.

The illusory figure of the Human Emperor remained still, merely gazing up at the sky. Even so, Ning Qingyi could sense the pervasive Taiyin True Meaning, with the Taiyin Dao suppressing all the Daos of the universe!
"Is this the way the Human Emperor organized his laws after achieving great success?"

Within Ningqing's sea of ​​light, a vital spring of Yin energy surged forth, instantly spreading throughout his body with sacred Yin power, allowing him to experience the Emperor's path to enlightenment.

A powerful force of Yin energy transformed into black mist, swirling around it, exuding endless chill and extreme cold, capable of freezing and cracking anything!
Taiyin, inheriting the ultimate Yin power from the beginning of creation, is infinitely deadly, uncontrollable, and almost impossible to refine. It is extremely fierce and ruthless when used against enemies.

"boom!"

Suddenly, the illusory image of the Human Emperor moved, transforming into a crescent moon that hung high in the sky. Ancient characters flashed one after another, resounding like the grand tolling of a great bell, giving the impression of undergoing a baptism. The crescent moon continued to expand, gradually becoming full.

This can be described as a fundamental change in the true meaning of Taiyin, an unparalleled opportunity.

Ning Qing's heart stirred, and the divine phenomenon reappeared behind him, with the vast pure energy and the heavy turbid energy separating out.

Meanwhile, in the world beyond the Gate of Immortality, the Chaos God also awoke, and along his spine, two energies also split apart.

"The Dao is the ultimate essence, which cannot be given form or name. If we force a name upon it, we call it Taiyi (Great One)."

"The way of heaven and earth is to create all things through the two energies of yin and yang."

His single cultivation method in the Dragon Transformation Realm involves nine changes a day, which is intended to deduce the nine states of heaven and earth. However, after the separation of gods and the Dao and the distinction between purity and turbidity, he has been unable to reach the third change for a long time.

Now, with a thought, he channeled his Yin energy into it, and it seemed to come alive, bursting forth with a mysterious vitality.

"A single yin cannot produce anything, nor can a single yang grow..."

Ning Qingyi's heart stirred, and the Sun Dao Spring hummed. The Sun's Holy Power and the Moon's Holy Power were both poured into the strange phenomenon, forming the foundation of creation in the darkness.

"Before the separation of heaven and earth, the primordial energy was mixed together as one. The way of heaven and earth is to create all things with the two energies of yin and yang." A glint flashed in Ning Qing's eyes: "The two energies of purity and turbidity are like the mother energy of all things. Only by manifesting the two energies of yin and yang can the foundation of creation be born."

Ning Qing was thrilled. Sure enough, after the clear and turbid energies revealed their yin and yang, the third phenomenon naturally appeared.

"Boom!"

In the chaos, a divine thunderbolt burst forth. The Chaos God used Yin and Yang as a catalyst, and various primordial energies continuously manifested between the clear and the turbid, eventually transforming into the three energies of Xuan, Yuan, and Shi, which in turn gave rise to three more energies.

In an instant, the mixed qi became azure, the cave qi a crimson, the bright qi azure, the celestial qi a verdant green, the scenic qi a yellow, the escaping qi a white, the merging qi a purple, the blazing qi azure, and the evolving qi a black, with the nine elements flowing endlessly.

Based on this, all things naturally came into being. In an instant, three great worlds manifested, lying across the Chaos God-Man. This was the third of the nine transformations in one day, with the three realms standing side by side!
At the same time, within the Ziwei Star, Ning Qingyi's phenomena also changed, with the three great worlds rotating endlessly, manifesting boundless power.

"boom!"

Once one's cultivation level breaks through, the heavens and earth immediately respond.

In an instant, an incredibly terrifying tribulation of lightning descended, manifesting as a group of humanoid lightning bolts, and the phantom of an imperial weapon also appeared, then it suppressed a section of the heavens, intending to kill him.

Ning Qingyi soared into the sky, fought for three days and three nights, and finally succeeded in transcending the tribulation, climbing another small step!

At the same time, Ye Fan also breathed a sigh of relief.

Ning Qingyi's enlightenment was instantaneous, but Ye Fan waited outside for a full month, during which time the situation naturally changed and many things happened.

For example, the Taiyin Sect was furious and issued a bounty to kill the two people, and several waves of assassins rushed over.

For example, a genius from this region came to visit, but was ultimately defeated by Ye Fan.

All of this gave Ye Fan a headache, and he couldn't just leave. Now that Ning Qingyi had finally broken through her cultivation, his urgent problem was finally solved.

"How was it?" Ye Fan greeted him.

“I’ve gained a lot. Also, my plans have changed, and I might stay in Ziwei for a while longer,” Ning Qingyi said.

Ye Fan was taken aback, a look of hesitation on his face: "What do you mean by staying a little longer?"

"Originally, I wanted to cut the Gordian knot and directly revive the demon, so that he could kill the ancient saints of the Taiyin Sect and the Golden Crow Clan." Ning Qingyi revealed his plan: "However, this enlightenment has made me realize that I may achieve the Dao-Severing Realm here, or even the Saint Realm."

Ye Fan was taken aback, then seemed to understand something.

"I have to say goodbye in advance, Ye Fan," Ning Qingyi said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan sighed and said, "I understand. After this parting, I don't know when we'll meet again."

“As long as we walk the path of cultivation, we will meet again eventually. Besides, you are not the kind of person who can endure loneliness.” Ning Qingyi smiled slightly: “Moreover, there are still great opportunities on Earth waiting for you to seize.”

Ye Fan was taken aback, and then he saw Ning Qingyi take out the Immortal Treasure Map obtained from the Chaos Dragon Nest.

……

Three months later, outside the Purple Star, a huge five-colored altar emitted a pillar of light that reached the heavens and the earth. When the light faded, only a celestial palace remained, along with a nine-dragon coffin that had fallen nearby.

Ning Qingyi sighed softly. He used the Lesser Destiny Technique as a catalyst to activate the Immortal Treasure Map and obtained the Emperor Array Diagram of the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains. At the same time, with Ye Fan's help, he successfully recreated the method of raising dragons to evolve the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountains.

It can be said that he has made all the necessary preparations. The next step is to comprehend the Dharma, create the Dharma, kill enemies, and attain enlightenment!

A fierce killing intent flashed in Ning Qing's eyes. She activated the array patterns, disappeared from the Heavenly Palace, and returned to the land of Ziwei Star.

"From this day forward, from the beginning of the Heavenly Origin, I will raze the Taiyin Sect to the ground to comfort the spirit of the Human Emperor in Heaven!"
