Chapter 119 Subduing the Soul God, Earth Mother's Dharma Assembly! (10,000-word update, please subscribe and vote!)

Across from Yaochi.

A goddess stands in a place where jade forms the seat, amidst swirling clouds and surrounded by exotic flowers and plants.

She was none other than the Queen Mother Taizhen, with her hair styled in a high bun, adorned with pearls and jade, her face flawless, and exuding an air of elegance and nobility.

At this moment, she looked at the Dao Tree that appeared above Taiyi's head, her eyes filled with admiration and amazement: "A self-contained system, the wonder of the Primordial Qi of Xuanhuang, truly astonishing!"

"Moreover, it is a combination of supernatural powers, Dao fruits, magical power, and primordial spirit, but unfortunately it does not seem to have broken away from the unity of god and Dao."

Taizhen Wangmu looked on with a hint of regret.

Since the Heavenly Emperor and the Earthly Emperor passed away one after another, many people have seen the end of the divine system, and she is no exception.

The Black Emperor wanted to break free from the divine system, but in the three realms and heavens, he was not the only one who wanted to do so.

However, she is still a long way from taking that step, and she is not in a hurry.

However, she saw some things through the Kunlun Mirror, which is why she sent people to welcome Taiyi, wanting to see him in person.

She was not disappointed this time.

……

Above the Jade Pool.

The strange phenomenon above Taiyi's head disappeared, and he continued to move forward with his head down, stopping from time to time.

Later, Hou Tu and others continued to use Yaochi to fill in the gaps and make up for any deficiencies, and Zhu Yan was no exception.

Five hundred years later.

Behind Zhen Yuanzi's head, a radiant light intertwined, revealing a somewhat illusory portal. Its color was dark yellow, and its Dao patterns were mottled, giving it a sense of weight and solidity, like mountains and seas.

The Gate to the Great Dao!

Five hundred years later, a gate appeared behind Hongyun's head, a crimson expanse surrounded by auspicious clouds.

By this time, Taiyi had reached the shore, but had found nothing more.

But I gained so much along the way.

Once ashore, everyone hurriedly went forward to pay their respects to the Queen Mother Taizhen.

The Jade Pool has been of immense benefit to them, so much so that its value cannot be measured in time.

The Queen Mother of the West pretended to support everyone and said with a smile, "I am only a few years older than you all, there is no need for formalities, we can treat each other as equals."

Taiyi and the others exchanged glances, then bowed again in unison, saying, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Taizhen!"

After introductions and pleasantries, the Queen Mother Taizhen invited Taiyi and the others to take their seats, and the Goddess Denglong, along with a group of goddesses, served them spiritual fruits and fragrant tea.

However, everyone's attention was drawn to a large peach on a plate, for the peach's Dao essence was so rich that it was no less than Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit.

"Fellow Daoist Taizhen, could this be the Ren Water Peaches of Immortality?"

Zhen Yuanzi said with some excitement.

The Queen Mother of the West was slightly surprised: "Fellow Daoist, you actually recognize me."

Before Zhen Yuanzi could speak, Hongyun laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Taizhen, it's because Zhen Yuanzi has a ginseng fruit tree there, which is truly formed from the essence of primordial earth and wood!"

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West suddenly realized and laughed, "So that's why I felt a familiar aura on Fellow Daoist Zhen Yuanzi."

Zhen Yuanzi quickly replied, "I am ashamed that I did not bring my ginseng fruit with me."

Eating this peach was a great opportunity for him.

The Queen Mother of the West laughed and said, "What's the harm? When I have some free time another day, I'll go to your place and have a good meal!"

Hongyun immediately echoed, "Absolutely! Absolutely!"

Upon hearing this, Taiyi asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi, do you intend to use the primordial Ren water essence contained within this peach to replenish the five elements?"

"Exactly."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded; this wasn't exactly a secret.

Taiyi nodded, taking it to heart.

The Queen Mother of the West then invited everyone to taste the peaches of immortality.

Her peaches ripen only once every 100,000 years, containing the essence of primordial Ren water, which is extremely mysterious.

Furthermore, consuming one will immediately grant one the lifespan of heaven and earth, and the same age as the sun and moon.

Another benefit is that it can greatly increase one's cultivation level.

Although these peaches of immortality ripen only once every 100,000 years, eating just one peach can increase one's cultivation level by more than 100,000 years.

Taiyi finished the peach in a few bites, and sent the peach pit to the blessed land of the Jianggong Palace.

While innate peaches cannot be cultivated, the kernel of a top-grade innate spiritual root might be able to cultivate a superior acquired spiritual root.

The power of the peaches was continuously refined into the Xuanhuang Qi, while the innate Ren water essence contained within was swallowed by the Five Elements Dao Tree, which was differentiated from the Xuanhuang Dao Tree.

This Dao tree was formed by Taiyi using the innate five-colored divine light to unify all the five elements of Daoist arts and supernatural powers.

Five Dragons Taoist Arts, Five Elements Great Escape, Shaking Mountains and Earth, Dividing Rivers into Land, Turning Earth into Steel... and so on.

From now on, when he uses all kinds of Five Elements Taoist arts and supernatural powers, he only needs the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light!

……

Having learned from their previous experience of tasting ginseng fruit, this time Taiyi and the others did not immediately seek enlightenment after finishing the fruit, but instead sat down to discuss the Dao, engaging in a clash of wisdom.

Taizhen Wangmu became the person in charge and the guide.

However, she soon discovered that she herself had also gained a lot from listening to Taiyi and the others discuss the Dao.

Although the cultivation level of the Taiyi clan members was indeed inferior to hers, they all had unique insights into the path of cultivation, and many of their ideas amazed her, so she couldn't help but join in.

Only Zhu Yan was fast asleep.

A thousand years later, even the Giant Spirit was dizzy from listening to it and could only avoid it and continue his cultivation.

Another thousand years passed, and the wisdom of Taiyi and others was exhausted, and the accumulation of the past was completely released.

The Queen Mother of the West still had some energy left, but she also knew that too much of a good thing could be bad. She smiled and said, "Fellow Daoists, please settle down first. There are still many wonderful things to see in this grotto-heaven."

Hongyun laughed and said, "Then we won't stand on ceremony!"

Julingshi couldn't help but say, "Brother Hongyun, you've never been polite!"

Everyone laughed.

After expressing their gratitude, Taiyi and the others were settled in palaces by the Goddess of Ascension and her entourage.

There was a hot spring inside the palace. Taiyi soaked in it to relieve his fatigue, and then sat on the cloud bed to review what he had learned.

In terms of the divine power system, he is now a god-king.

"I practice the Five Elements Dao using the innate five-colored divine light."

"I also need to choose a supernatural power to unify the Yin and Yang principles."

"And there's the Four Symbols Avenue..."

Taiyi pondered to himself.

He had practiced Yin-Yang supernatural powers before.

The manipulation of creation, as well as various physical supernatural powers, all involve the Great Dao of Yin and Yang.

Even the various Five Elements Taoist arts and supernatural powers contain the mysteries of Yin and Yang.

However, he had never cultivated any supernatural abilities that were exclusive to innate Yin and Yang, such as the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light or the Five Elements Great Escape.

After being reflected in the Jade Pool and discussing the Dao with the Queen Mother of the West, he felt it was absolutely necessary.

He needs to specialize first, then broaden his knowledge.

With all sorts of Taoist arts and supernatural powers flowing through his mind, Taiyi quickly made his choice.

Reversing Yin and Yang!

Innate Pure Yang True Fire!

Primordial Mysterious Yin True Light!

Within the Purple Mansion Dao Realm, once the Daoist techniques and supernatural abilities were selected, pure innate divine consciousness began to operate at high speed, comprehending the supernatural abilities.

The primordial spirit, the five internal organs spirits, and the corpse dog spirit were all busy comprehending Taoist arts and supernatural powers.

Taiyi's physical body focused its attention back on the seven souls.

The accumulation over the years has been enough; the third soul spirit should be born soon.

Fushipo!

This soul governs the seven souls, and his cultivation of the Heavenly Eye is perfectly aligned.

Taiyi immediately used his divine eye to unite with Fushipo, forming a primordial divine embryo and giving birth to the Fushipo spirit.

Then, his gaze fell upon Que Yinpo.

This soul connects the past and the future, serving as a vital conduit for the transmission of subconscious thoughts and instincts. It is also related to the seven emotions and six desires, and one of the most primal human instincts is reproduction.

Which supernatural power should be used to cultivate and enlighten this soul?

Or could one directly nurture a spirit and gain innate supernatural powers?

Previously, the Netherworld Dao Treasure Bottle of the Stinky Lung Soul God was quite good, enough to unify all kinds of Netherworld Dao techniques and supernatural powers.

"However, the Sparrow Yin Soul is best suited for cultivating the supernatural powers of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires... the Path of Divine Consciousness, the Path of the Heavenly Demon..."

Tai Yi frowned slightly.

The Path of Divine Consciousness does not equate to the Path of the Heavenly Demon.

The Heavenly Demon Path can only be described as a different path in the cultivation of divine consciousness, focusing on the seven emotions and six desires, and cultivating demonic nature.

Just as he studied the Way of Divine Consciousness with Houtu and Yidi, the three of them eventually arrived at different conclusions.

"Although the Divine Consciousness Heavenly Technique has the strengths of three schools, it has also given up the power of the seven emotions and six desires."

"What makes us human is our seven emotions and six desires. But we cannot reject these powers simply because they can easily give rise to demonic tendencies."

"Not to mention that the demonic path is also a path. Everyone has demonic nature, and the more one fears it, the more difficult it is to control once it erupts."

Thinking of this, Taiyi couldn't help but look at the demon tree left behind by the Demon Lord Bo Xun within his body.

There is a demon seed on the demon tree, containing the legacy of the demon lord Mara.

However, he quickly looked away and turned to his Xuanhuang Dao Tree.

The Dao Tree lineage of the past was not without similar Daoist arts and supernatural powers.

For example, planting demons within one's Daoist heart.

For example, the Seven Emotions Mantra.

For example, the Six Desires Heaven Wheel.

"Then let's use the Divine Sense Heavenly Technique to control these demonic supernatural powers, and then enlighten and nurture the Soul God!"

Taiyi made a decision.

……

Time flies, and five hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the spirit of Fushi Poshin of the Taiyi clan was born.

It has a one-eyed face without ears, nose, or mouth, and this one eye is the Heavenly Eye!

Taiyi felt that with the help of Fushi Poshen, his Heavenly Eye had become more powerful, and his insight into the divine powers of the Great Dao had become more acute.

Furthermore, Fushi Poshin was born at the God King level.

This is not surprising. His Heavenly Eye Divine Power initially originated from Houtu's Netherworld Divine Eye. Later, it integrated the wonders of essence, energy, and spirit, incorporated the mysteries of Xuanhuang Qi, and included Yin and Yang, the Four Symbols, the Five Elements, and time and space. It is also a comprehensive divine power based on Xuanhuang Qi, which encompasses all kinds of Dao mysteries.

Without this divine eye ability, the previous research and cultivation would not have gone so smoothly.

When Fushi Poshen was born, Taiyi immediately left his seclusion and wandered around Yaochi Cave Heaven, using his divine eye to perceive the great Dao and all its phenomena.

In the decades that followed, Hou Tu and others emerged from seclusion one after another, and together they began to study the various Dao phenomena within the cave.

Once they had accumulated enough, they went to bother the Queen Mother Taizhen again to hold a Dharma assembly.

During this period, at the invitation of the Queen Mother Taizhen, Taiyi also preached and taught the Dharma to many demigods and acquired races in the cave.

This was also the first time he had been invited to preach and spread the Dharma to the people of his own race during his westward journey.

……

On this day, Taiyi was attempting to refine elixirs when Houtu rushed in from outside. Without waiting for any questions, she said, "Taiyi, the Empress has sent a message, instructing me to return to Zhou Mountain immediately."

"A hundred years from now, there will be a grand Dharma assembly, and you, along with fellow Daoists Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun, will be among those invited."

Taiyi was startled upon hearing this, stopped what he was doing, and said, "In that case, we shall take our leave of Fellow Daoist Taizhen."

"We have been lingering here for nearly ten thousand years."

Houtu nodded: "That's right."

Immediately, they packed up the alchemy furnace, and the two went out to meet Zhen Yuanzi and the others, and together they went to see the Queen Mother Taizhen.

Upon seeing everyone, the Queen Mother Taizhen smiled and said, "You must have come to say goodbye. It just so happens that I have also received an invitation from the Earth Mother to go to Zhou Mountain. Let's go together!"

Everyone was both surprised and delighted to hear this.

Taiyi secretly felt a surge of anticipation: "It seems that this Dharma assembly is indeed of a very large scale. Perhaps we will be able to see many familiar innate deities then."

The next day.

The group boarded the carriage of the Queen Mother Taizhen together, left the cave, and headed straight for Mount Zhou.

The underworld.

Dongfang Taozhi Mountain.

Wuchang and Meng Po were summoned by the Ghost Emperor and came to the temple together.

"Wuchang (Meng Po) pays her respects to the two Emperors!"

The two bowed deeply.

Before them sat two ghosts and gods, namely Yu Lei and Shen Tu, the two Ghost Emperors, who were the masters of Taozhi Mountain and also the Eastern Ghost Emperor among the Five Ghost Emperors appointed by the Divine Court.

After having the two sit down, Yu Lei said, "You two should make some preparations. Tomorrow, you will come with me out of the Netherworld to Zhou Mountain to attend the Earth Mother Goddess's Dharma Assembly."

A Dharma assembly of the Earth Mother Goddess?

Wuchang and Meng Po exchanged a glance.

Shen Tu said, "This Dharma assembly is extremely important, as it involves the Earth Emperor. You must make the most of it."

As he spoke, two beams of black light shot out from his sleeves and landed in front of Wuchang and Meng Po.

Shen Tu said, "This is a spiritual treasure bestowed upon you. Take it back and refine it carefully!"

Wuchang and Meng Po quickly accepted Lingbao's gift, bowing deeply in gratitude: "We will certainly not disappoint the two emperors!"

Yu Lei nodded and said, "We chose you two because we trust you both. Go and prepare!"

Impermanence and Meng Po bowed and withdrew. After returning to their place of cultivation, Impermanence asked, "Do you know what kind of Dharma assembly it was?"

Meng Po shook her head: "I don't know that. I have never seen Your Highness hold such a ceremony since I was born."

"I'm afraid it's not just the two emperors who received the invitation; many ghost emperors from the Netherworld will also be invited."

Wuchang pondered, "If it's related to the Earthly Emperor, what could it be?"

Meng Po smiled and said, "There's no point in thinking about it now. Let's refine this spiritual treasure first."

"The fact that the two emperors are taking this so seriously suggests that there may be many dangers involved."
