Covering the Sky: One Realm, One Fruit; One Mythical Law!

Just as Chen Xuanhuang was pondering how to resolve the [Breath of Heavenly Punishment].

The development of clay figurines has gradually gotten on track.

As the clay figures learned from and taught each other, the practice of imitating and teaching one another continued to expand.

Gradually, more and more clay figurines began to have a clear understanding of the subject.

He began cultivating according to the "Treating One's Body as a Sea of ​​Suffering" tempering method that Chen Xuanhuang had deconstructed.

As time goes by.

Four hundred, five hundred, and in the blink of an eye, more than a thousand clay figures began to give him a sense of gratitude.

Although most of the clay figures are only beginning to gather essence.

However, the cumulative effect resulted in a doubling of the benefits received by Chen Xuanhuang.

The three original clay figurines that were passed down have accumulated so much time over time without anyone realizing it.

He also began to temper himself by constantly using himself as a sea of ​​suffering, just like Chen Xuanhuang.

Unbeknownst to them, the three of them, just like Chen Xuanhuang before, had transformed from earthen clay figures into crystal figures.

However, at this stage, they also encountered a bottleneck.

They need to accumulate too much vital energy for their next breakthrough, and they can't just slowly gather it by eating soil like this.

It's just too slow.

This also made Chen Xuanhuang eager to find a way to resolve the [Breath of Heavenly Punishment].

It was at this moment that...

Disturbed and confused, Chen Xuanhuang happened to observe a clay figure consuming soil and condensing its essence.

"boom!!"

At that moment, an idea seemed to flash through his mind.

He then immediately began to grasp this glimmer of inspiration and try to understand it.

I don't know how much time passed.

"Hahaha, it's done!"

"So it's that simple. Now let's see if our clay figures' innate abilities can be as miraculous as I imagined."

Next, Chen Xuanhuang began to gather the clay figures and had them collect all the scorched mud from the surrounding area.

Then, he specifically chose ten clay figures that had not yet begun to condense their essence.

It began to devour the scorched earth and condense its essence.

However, it is unknown whether the essence in the scorched earth is simply too little.

Or for some other reason.

In short, they devoured ten times the amount of scorched earth, yet they still seemed unable to condense any essence.

On the contrary, it seemed that they had absorbed too much scorched earth, and these ten yellowish-brown clay figures actually began to turn black.

Seeing this, Chen Xuanhuang did not give up.

Instead, let them continue.

This is because these clay figures are naturally simple-minded; otherwise, it would be someone else who would be exploited by them in this way.

They probably already rebelled a long time ago.

Finally, when the first clay figure completely turned into a black clay figure.

A new wisp of vital energy began to emerge from his body.

At that very moment, a strange wisp of essence returned to Chen Xuanhuang's body.

As soon as this wisp of essence appeared, it began to erode and assimilate the other essences in his body.

Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Xuanhuang was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, he was overjoyed.

"It's done!"

This was exactly what Chen Xuanhuang wanted; these clay figures had actually condensed the essence of divine punishment.

Yes, it is the essence corresponding to the breath of divine retribution.

At this moment, he was using the Mudman race's innate ability to "manipulate creation."

I have gained a completely new understanding.

It seems that their creators left behind a wealth far more astonishing than they could have imagined.

At the same time, Chen Xuanhuang also gained a true understanding of the plan that, although it was only a "half-finished clay figure, it has infinite possibilities".

Of course, the birth of [Heavenly Punishment Essence] is just the beginning.

Next, he needs to find a way to completely balance the two opposing energies.

Then, by continuously receiving the tempering of new essence, one can obtain a new essence at a higher level, thus gaining the ability to absorb the essence of heavenly punishment.

At that time, the problem of the Dharma-ending Age can be completely solved.

Currently, only Chen Xuanhuang can attempt this step.

Next, he began to try to make the two kinds of essence in his body collide with each other, hoping to seize a chance for a miracle.

After attempting to capture the intertwining of two kinds of essence, instead of dissolving them, the properties of both essences were preserved, resulting in a completely new essence.

However, this step was much more difficult than imagined.

He even doubted whether his assumptions were wrong.

Fortunately, at this moment, a wisp of magical gray essence, barely even a wisp, began to be born.

It wanted to disappear the moment it was born.

However, Chen Xuanhuang cleverly recorded and captured it using the [Book of Creation].

This is also a brand new application he developed based on the "Book of Creation".

Once the first wisp of mysterious gray essence was born, there would naturally be a second and a third.

As more and more gray essence appears.

Finally, when the gray essence accumulated into a complete wisp, Chen Xuanhuang seemed to sense something.

At this moment, he discovered that the two kinds of essence within his body were being devoured by this wisp of gray essence.

Then this wisp of gray essence seemed to come alive, and began to divide and grow for a considerable period of time.

Before long, all of Chen Xuanhuang's own essence was transformed into gray essence.

According to Chen Xuanhuang's own feelings, this gray essence seemed to be somewhat similar to the assimilation and inclusion of chaotic energy.

But it seems to have more characteristics of devouring and destroying than chaotic energy.

This gray essence seems to be very restraining of all other essences.

Therefore, he simply called it "Destroyed Essence".

His initial idea was to pass on this essence to all the clay figures.

However, after sensing the destructive power of the Annihilation True Qi, and the subtle rejection from his own [Manipulating Creation] talent.

Chen Xuanhuang then abandoned the idea.

He even intended to let the ten selected clay figures absorb the essence of divine retribution.

With these ten black clay figures of divine punishment, Chen Xuanhuang was actually able to solve the problem of his vital energy being assimilated by the breath of divine punishment to a certain extent.

………….

Next, Chen Xuanhuang continued to delve into its mysteries.

And he attempted to modify the previous Source Technique Array through his powerful comprehension.

Continuing to use itself as the core of the formation, but this time an opposing formation gathering the aura of divine punishment was placed outside the formation.

This formation is called the "Heaven and Earth Two Elements Great Array".

The inner circle represents Yang, drawing upon the power of the stars in the heavens and transforming it into the essence of heaven and earth.

The outer circle is Yin, where the breath of divine retribution gathers, separating the area from the essence of heaven and earth.

The dividing line in the middle is centered on Chen Xuanhuang, with the mysterious [Destruction Essence] serving as the final barrier.

In this way...

Ten Heavenly Punishment Mud Figurines can absorb the Heavenly Punishment Breath to cultivate, while the other mud figurines can absorb the pure essence of stars in the center to cultivate.

Considering Chen Xuanhuang's current limited strength, the space he creates by using his body as a formation is actually not very large.

It can only support a few clay figures practicing.

Therefore, his first consideration would definitely be the three clay figures who had received the inheritance, namely [Chen Qi], [Chen Yilingjiu], and [Chen Sansan].

It just so happens that the three of them are also the ones who accumulate essence the fastest and temper themselves the fastest in the sea of ​​suffering.

Next, with the help of Chen Xuanhuang.

The efficiency with which the three clay figures accumulated essence increased dramatically.

They used to need more than ten days to accumulate one essence, but now they can accumulate more than ten in a single day.

At this pace.

Before long, they will be able to accumulate enough essence to break through to the [Fountain of Life] realm.

However, considering that the other clay figures do not have the advantage of his support, he does not intend to fully impart his [Cave Heaven Holy Spirit Method] to them for their breakthrough.

Instead, they decided to let them continue cultivating according to the Star Sect's Antarctic Longevity Scripture.

Of course, Chen Xuanhuang had a bit of his own agenda mixed in.

That is to guide them to evolve the human body's hidden potential in the same way.

However, he did not choose to include all the secret realms. After thinking it over, he finally decided to select the nine orifices of the human body.

As the saying goes, "human life is hard to come by," and the nine orifices are of utmost importance among them.

For them, nine orifices are sufficient for now.

In this way...

Using the nine orifices as the life source, cultivate the Antarctic Longevity Scripture.

It incorporates some of the mysteries of the [Cave Heaven Holy Spirit Method].

The method that guides them to evolve toward the Holy Spirit is called the "Nine Orifices Life Spring Method".

Of course, it is still in its early stages.

Even though it's just a prototype, it's still more suitable for their Mudman tribe than the original, simple "Antarctic Longevity Manual".

Because the "Antarctic Longevity Manual" is ultimately a cultivation method for humans and star races.

There are many things that even clay figurines don't possess.

The current "Sea of ​​Wheels" phase is alright, but the gap will definitely widen as we go on.

At that time, there may be a situation where you can no longer continue your cultivation.

Chen Xuanhuang naturally needed to prepare for this in advance.

Don't forget, his legacy also includes corresponding cultivation techniques from the ancient mythological era and the myriad races of antiquity, known as the strongest cultivation methods in various secret realms.

Coupled with his increasingly powerful comprehension, this is why he is confident in creating a law that belongs to their Mudman race.

This is also why he is now able to create a preliminary prototype of the Mudman Evolution Method.

………….

Next.

With Chen Xuanhuang's help in gathering the essence of the stars and explaining the methods and key points of breaking through the Life Spring, they were able to achieve their goals.

Time is unknowable, years are unknown.

After accumulating for an unknown period of time.

Finally, the first clay figure, Chen Qi, began to break through.

It must be said that the talent of the clay figurine maker is perhaps much better than imagined.

The whole process was very smooth, and Chen Qi successfully condensed his first life spring.

This corresponds to the Yangqiao, also known as the Lingtai or Baihui acupoint.

The nine orifices commonly refer to the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.

However, Chen Xuanhuang knew another version of the Nine Apertures, which was the "Nine Apertures" of Taoist practitioners in his previous life.

Although the two are related, the latter is the real core.

The latter's nine orifices are also known as the "Three Fields," "Three Gates," and "Three Apertures."
