There are no ancestors at all; I made them all up.

Chapter 150 Pointing out the Dao Seed

"Nine Fiends of Profound Yin! Protect my true form!"

At the critical moment of life and death, Yin Jiujiu's instincts, powered by his Six-Turn Golden Elixir, overwhelmed everything!
His eyes were bloodshot, and he roared fiercely, his body exuding a dark, deathly aura like a volcano erupting!

Nine jet-black malevolent energies soared into the sky, intertwining above their heads to form a giant shield covered with ancient demonic runes!

The shield shimmered with an eerie light, and countless ghosts rose and fell, emanating a chilling aura that could freeze one's soul!

This was his trump card for survival, a life-saving technique that had almost drained his entire life's cultivation!
however--

"Crack!"

After all, he was in a hurry and had not made any preparations for the tribulation beforehand. His supernatural powers were still biased towards the Yin attribute and ghosts. In the face of the tribulation lightning of the third golden core, which symbolized heavenly punishment and was extremely Yang and strong, the demonic shield that had gathered the resentment of countless Yin souls was like ice and snow under the scorching sun. It only lasted for a few breaths before it shattered with a bang!
"puff!"

Yin Jiujiu coughed up blood! But he managed to catch his breath!
Thunder is coming again!

"You brat! You have such a vicious mind! I have traveled a thousand miles to come here, and you killed my disciple and used me as a shield! You will die a horrible death!" The resentment in his eyes was almost tangible. Ignoring the backlash, he slammed his fist on his dantian!
"Buzz!"

A large black jade seal, entwined with the phantom images of nine yin snakes, spewed from his mouth and swelled in the wind!

This is his natal magic weapon, the Nine Nether Soul-Suppressing Seal, which he cultivated with his very life!
The great seal, accompanied by a mournful, eerie wind, crashed violently into the remaining, dazzling golden lightning!

"Boom!"

The clash of gold and ink!
A blinding flash of light and a devastating shockwave swept out!

Yin Jiujiu was sent flying backwards like a kite with a broken string, his body charred black, his black robe torn to shreds, and his aura extremely weak!
The Nine Nether Soul-Suppressing Seal let out a mournful cry, its radiance dimmed, and cracks appeared on its body, almost completely collapsing!

"Ah this..."

Yin Qingping and the others looked astonished. To onlookers, it looked as if Yin Jiujiu was desperately protecting Chen Qing below!

The aftershocks of the tribulation lightning dissipated.

In the center of the frozen lake, Chen Qing sat cross-legged like a stone, a mysterious aura emanating from his body, establishing a mysterious connection with the void.

"It's done! The Three-Tier Fate Star has appeared!" Chen Xinghen's gaze sharpened!
The next moment, the Chaos Golden Core in Chen Qing's abdomen spun again!
A mysterious feeling arises spontaneously!

He could clearly feel that, in the darkness, his own energy resonated with a certain star in the vast starry sky beyond the nine heavens!

Destiny Star!

Under the illumination of this auspicious star, Chen Qing felt completely clear inside and out. All his past experiences and entanglements of cause and effect were as clear as the lines on his palm! With the slightest thought, he could vaguely sense the auspicious or inauspicious tendencies of certain matters closely related to himself!
"Is this what it means to be illuminated by the Destiny Star? If this connection is maintained for a long time, the connection with the Destiny Star will continue to deepen. In the future, one will be able to feel something when someone mentions one's name, just like those great supernatural beings. However, the connection with the name of the Hidden Star True Monarch seems to be different from this, but the core of both seems to lie in the attraction of the Destiny Star. The deeper the connection with this star, the more profound the mystery becomes."

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly struck him.

"I wonder if the life star of my physical body and the body in my dream is the same one. If so, will there be any changes when crossing tens of thousands of years of time and space?"

Although this third stage of the Golden Core does not directly enhance killing power, it is even more mysterious and unpredictable, and is vaguely a prerequisite for further advancement in the future.

This time!

"You little beast!!!" Covered in blood, Fei Yin Jiujiu struggled to steady himself, looking like a madman, staring intently at Chen Qing. "I am, after all, a sixth-stage Golden Core cultivator! How dare you humiliate me like this?!"

His voice was hoarse, filled with deep-seated resentment, and he even formed a hand seal, pressing his natal seal down on Chen Qing!

"You may have some cleverness, forcibly shifting me to shield you from disaster, but I was prepared, and there will be no second time! A Golden Core cultivator is the foundation of our sect, how dare you..."

"Excuse me," Chen Qing interrupted, gathering his thoughts, "I actually set up another array specifically for protecting and killing, and you are currently in the death position!"

Before he could finish speaking, Yin Jiujiu's eyes widened!
"Om-"

Around the frozen lake, the Pure Yang True Fire runes and the Taiyin Frost Array patterns spun and merged wildly!
It stirred up the violent hot and cold spiritual energy throughout the entire canyon!
In an instant, countless rays of light, interwoven with gold and blue, appeared out of thin air centered on Yin Jiujiu, forming a net that imprisoned him tightly!
Extreme cold chills to the bone! Intense heat extinguishes the soul!
The entire water and fire spiritual veins were completely mobilized!
The power of Yin and Yang rotation transformed into an invisible millstone, crushing down fiercely!

"Ugh!"

Yin Jiujiu cried out in pain, and the deathly aura protecting his body shook violently! The injuries he had just suppressed erupted again, and his life force was as weak as a candle in the wind!

Chen Qing formed a hand seal, and more than thirty Nirvana Dharma Wheels appeared simultaneously, each one merging with a point of starlight, outlining the contours of the Void Spiritual Talisman!

Whoosh whoosh—

In the next instant, countless Falun flickered and shifted, changing the sky and appearing and disappearing unpredictably!

Yin Jiujiu's eyes widened suddenly!

His Dharma Wheels vanished from all directions, flashing past his body. Just as he was about to retaliate, the Dharma Wheels shifted and disappeared again!
Several even directly enveloped his natal seal, instantly shifting it to the top of his head before crashing down!

"Little beast!"

Yin Jiujiu's protective aura had been shattered by the cutting, and he hurriedly took control of his natal seal. His anger was boiling and about to explode!
"boom--"

Just then, the tribulation clouds in the nine heavens surged once more!
This time, the clouds churning deep within the calamity were no longer golden, but a blood-red hue!
A chilling aura gradually spread!
Chen Qing formed a hand seal, and all thirty-odd Dharma wheels were retrieved by him!
Sensing something, Yin Jiujiu turned his head and saw that the scarlet lightning was heading straight for him!

"Do not--"

As the destructive crimson lightning descended upon him, he let out a desperate roar!

"boom!!!"

Crimson lightning engulfed him!

The roar abruptly stopped!

A pungent, burnt smell filled the air.

He was like a pillar in the middle of the storm, splitting the raging lightning in two above Chen Qing, allowing Chen Qing to avoid it!

As the lightning dissipated, only a charred, curled-up corpse, emitting blue smoke, and two golden cores floating in the air, riddled with cracks and dim in their spiritual light, remained on the spot! "Even one's own master would probably not go to this extent, after all, helping someone avoid calamity involves getting involved in karma."

Chen Qing sighed, raised his hand, and grabbed the two golden pills.

"Unfortunately, we've probably survived this ordeal..."

The golden elixir within his abdomen began to swirl once more!
Fourth turn, done!
Immediately, the Dao Seed in Chen Qing's Niwan Palace pulsed, emitting a clear stream, and a tremor originating from his natal talisman erupted deep within his golden core!
When the two are combined, a natal divine power containing the power of yin and yang rotation, the bearing of mountains and seas, and the birth and death of stars is being conceived and strengthened!
A sense of power, far more responsive and limitless than any supernatural ability before, welled up within me!

"His innate divine power is indeed extraordinary."

Chen Qing's mind stirred slightly as he sensed the perfect harmony between the nascent form of the divine power and his own path of cultivation.

“This extension, like one’s own limbs, is truly exquisite. External supernatural powers such as the golden body, the Dharma wheel, and the world-burning fire are powerful, but there is always a layer between them.”

"Boom!"

A loud roar came, and Chen Qing couldn't help but calm his mind and look up at the sky.

The tribulation clouds in the nine heavens did not subside; instead, they expanded to blot out the sun!

An even deeper and more terrifying pressure poured down as if it were a tangible force, enveloping the entire canyon!

Deep within the calamity clouds, an intensely white light, almost black, gathered and compressed wildly, like a sun about to explode!

Further afield, snow began to fall!

The fifth Golden Core Tribulation is approaching!
If one's accumulation is insufficient or one's foundation is inadequate, the tribulation clouds will dissipate after the tribulation. However, Chen Qing's accumulation was not reduced, so the tribulation was intensified layer by layer!
Above the canyon entrance.

Looking at the world-destroying tribulation clouds, Yin Qingping felt the terrifying pressure emanating from them. Her face turned pale, and her voice trembled: "Senior...should we continue watching?"

The woman with her eyes closed pondered upon hearing this, seemingly considering whether to intervene and capture Ji Ming.

Seeing this trend, Chen Xinghen immediately said, "Our duty is to capture him and bring him to justice, not to destroy his foundation and cause his death! The heavenly tribulation is his own tribulation, and we should not interfere!"

Hearing this, the woman with her eyes closed smiled and said, "Chen Xingxing is right. Besides, even if Ji Ming has a deep foundation, I am confident that I will have the means to capture him after he survives this tribulation. However..." At this point, she changed the subject, "If there are any ignorant or malicious individuals like those from the Xuan Yin Sect who interfere, we cannot protect them due to our duties. What do you think, Chen Xingxing?"

"That's only right." Chen Xinghen nodded.

"boom!!!"

Just then, a terrifying beam of light, indescribably thick, blindingly white, and with molten gold flowing at its core, tore through the thick clouds of tribulation!

Wherever the beam of light passed, space distorted, emitting a mournful cry of being scorched through!
The hard, red, icy cliffs silently vaporized and disappeared!

The Fifth Tribulation Lightning: Blazing White Melting Gold Lightning!
Its power far surpasses the sum of the previous four revolutions!

With the supreme Yang power that melts all things and returns them to their origin, it directly penetrates Chen Qingtian's spirit!
Faced with this devastating attack, Chen Qing finally made his move!

He suddenly looked up, the chaos in his eyes fading away, replaced by a blazing sun in his left eye and a clear, cold moon in his right! The illusory images of the sun and moon rotated endlessly!

"The sun and moon revolve, and mountains and seas serve as a natural barrier!"

A loud shout echoed throughout the canyon!

The chaotic golden core within his dantian spun wildly, and the nascent form of his newborn innate divine power was fully activated!
boom!
The phantom of a majestic mountain rose up from the ground behind him!

The mountains are majestic and imposing, suppressing all wilderness!
A vast, illusory ocean stretched out beneath its feet!

The surging waves carry all things!
Above the mountain peak, the sun hangs high in the sky!
Beneath the sea, the bright moon rises and falls!
The light of the sun and moon shines together, creating a distorted and ever-changing field of light and shadow between the mountains and the sea, adorned with stars!

The earth-shattering, blazing white, molten gold lightning pillar crashed into this force field where the sun, moon, mountains, and seas intertwined!

The lightning pillar, powerful enough to melt all things, seemed to have sunk into an incredibly viscous swamp of time! Its speed suddenly decreased tenfold! The raging lightning power was gradually broken down and weakened by the layers of sunlight and moonlight!
The mountain phantom trembled violently under the impact of the lightning, and countless fragments of light and stone collapsed!
The illusory image of the vast ocean boiled and evaporated, stirring up towering waves!
The light and shadow of the sun and moon, as they revolve, flicker and change!

But they withstood the thunderbolt!

"The newly acquired supernatural power is indeed extraordinary!"

Chen Qing sat cross-legged in the center of the mountain and sea, surrounded by the sun and moon, his face solemn, his hands forming hand seals that changed rapidly, maintaining the defensive barrier constructed by his innate divine power!

The power of the Chaos Golden Core poured out like a floodgate opening!

Blazing white lightning clashed fiercely with the power of the sun, moon, mountains, and seas above the canyon, ultimately annihilating each other!
The blinding light rendered everything a monotonous, blazing white!

Chen Xinghen stared at the vast expanse of mountains, seas, sun, and moon, his eyes widening in surprise.

"This is……"

"The nascent form of the Eight Views!" The woman with her eyes closed exclaimed in surprise. "His innate divine power may be heading straight for the Nascent Soul realm! This means that he condensed a Dao Seed a long time ago!"

After counting the breaths!

"Om-"

The lightning eventually ran out!

The illusory images of the sun, moon, mountains, and seas also dimmed and dissipated at the same time!
Chen Qing's breathing was slightly uneven, but his eyes were bright and sharp!
The seed of Dao in his Niwan Palace suddenly expanded, radiating boundless brilliance. A strange rhythm descended from the heavens and earth and merged into it!

Suddenly, a scene flashed through Chen Qing's mind: the Primordial Immortal Emperor supporting a world and ascending to heaven amidst the rosy clouds!
This seed of his was born from the spiritual communion between his own spiritual light and Xu Zhaoying, and the source of that spiritual light was the observation of the Immortal Emperor's ascension!

Now, this past scene seems to have transformed into a painting, condensing into a single point, and along with the radiance of the Dao Seed, it merged into the Chaos Golden Core!

The golden elixir in the abdomen turned again, nurturing a spark of spiritual energy.

　The second and third updates should be published before midnight.
