Chapter 65 Nine Heavens Divine Embryo
"This World Tree is ruthless!" Looking at the dim Chaos Pearl, Feng Zichen felt immense heartache.
The damage to the Chaos Pearl this time required devouring a high-grade innate spiritual treasure to repair, a devastating loss for Feng Zichen. Meanwhile, the World Tree, having seized the Chaos Pearl's essence, benefited greatly and grew vigorously.
Within the Sea of Creation Thunder, the World Tree seed had completely transformed into a sapling, constantly growing taller.
As its branches and leaves unfurled, streams of chaotic primordial energy descended; as its roots grew, they spread into the depths of the void, connecting with endless dimensions.
It seemed to be the source of the Great Dao, from which all Great Daos originated. The patterns on its body were the ultimate principles of the Great Dao, containing endless mysteries. Its branches and leaves supported the boundless void, as if to support the entire world.
The process of the World Tree taking root and sprouting was like the process of the Great Dao's birth. Witnessing all this, Feng Zichen felt a sudden clarity in his true spirit, his connection with the Great Dao becoming even stronger.
After the World Tree fully absorbed the power of the Chaos Qi and the Chaos Pearl's origin, its growth gradually slowed down. At this time, the World Tree had grown into a colossal tree tens of thousands of feet tall, frantically devouring the surrounding Creation Divine Lightning.
The Creation Divine Lightning at the center of the Thunder Swamp seemed inexhaustible; despite being devoured by the World Tree for so long, it not only showed no signs of diminishing but instead continuously surged in from all directions, nourishing its growth.
"Truly worthy of being called a Chaos Spiritual Root! All the Great Daos are contained within it; its mysteries are beyond words!" Awakening from his enlightenment, Feng Zichen gazed at the World Tree before him and exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.
Afterwards, seeing that the World Tree was still absorbing the Creation Divine Lightning, Feng Zichen took out the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace. He intended to use the power of the Creation Divine Lightning to refine the Qi within the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace, to see if he could revitalize the Innate Divine Embryo!
As soon as he took out the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace, Feng Zichen felt the Thunder Swamp tremble continuously, an aura of sorrow enveloping the entire swamp, enough to bring tears to one's eyes.
A mournful sound echoed from the void as drops of Creation Thunder Water fell, each drop carrying an unyielding sorrow!
" The tears of Lei Ze?"
Sensing Lei Ze's grief, the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace ascended into the sky, its surrounding lightning flickering, also releasing a sorrowful aura, resonating with Lei Ze. The next moment, the Creation Thunder Water in the void suddenly froze, then surged towards the innate divine embryo within the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace, washing away its innate malevolent energy.
Creation Thunder Water, born from Lei Ze's will, contained the essence of innate thunder. It could even obliterate chaotic malevolent energy, let alone mere innate malevolent energy. In a short while, the innate malevolent energy on the innate divine embryo vanished, restoring its sacred form.
After washing away the innate malevolent energy, the Creation Thunder Water did not recede but instead flowed into the innate divine embryo, transforming into boundless vitality, attempting to revive the divine embryo.
However, the innate divine embryo was born from Lei Ze's gathering of boundless spiritual energy, nurtured for billions of years. No matter how miraculous the Creation Thunder Water was, how could it compare to the accumulation of billions of years in the Thunder Marsh?
The Creation Thunder Water, after surging into the innate divine embryo, not only had no effect, but instead stimulated it, causing a surge of death energy and resentment! Instantly, the innate divine embryo's aura changed drastically, its sacred energy dissipating. Terrifying death energy, mixed with thick resentment, clung to it, forcing back the Creation Thunder Water.
"Such dense resentment! Of course, it suffered a terrible fate before even being born; how could its resentment not be great?" Feng Zichen took a few steps back, increasing the distance between himself and the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace, afraid of being tainted by the resentment.
Being tainted by death energy was manageable; with some effort, it could be worn away. But being tainted by resentment was different! Didn't you see how the resentment of the Chaos Demon God directly gave birth to a race of ferocious beasts, ravaging the primordial world for countless years, and no one could control them!
Although innate gods and demons cannot compare to chaotic demons, they were born from the primordial world and have the advantage of home ground. Heaven knows what side effects their resentment might have? It's best to avoid such inexplicable things!
"How tragic! A dignified innate god and demon, a future Grand Luo Dao Venerable, died tragically in his own lair before even seeing the primordial world. Truly, fate is unpredictable!"
Seeing the tragic state of the Nine Heavens God and Demon, Feng Zichen sighed deeply and couldn't help but emphasize the perilous nature of the primordial world. Even the most favored innate god and demon embryos by the Heavenly Dao could suddenly suffer a calamity, let alone ordinary people.
"Grand Luo Dao Venerable!" Feng Zichen murmured to himself, his Dao heart becoming even more resolute.
Only by becoming a Grand Luo Golden Immortal could he transcend the river of fate, control his own destiny, and truly achieve "my fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of Heaven! "
Seeing that the Creation Thunder Water not only failed to revive the innate divine embryo but also had the opposite effect, Lei Ze withdrew the Creation Thunder Water and turned to mobilize the power of his origin, forcibly gathering the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace and merging them together.
With a deafening boom, thunder roared, and divine lightning danced wildly across the nine heavens. Under the pressure of Lei Ze, the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace, along with the innate divine embryo, exploded, transforming into chaotic crimson runes that proclaimed the principles of heaven and earth.
Subsequently, the chaotic crimson runes blossomed, radiant and wondrous, pure and radiant, embodying the essence of the highest spirits, evolving into the Nine Heavens Realm and the Thirty-Six Heavenly Prisons. With the Divine Firmament Heaven at the center, the other eight heavens were distributed in eight directions, forming a total of thirty-six Heavenly Prisons.
In the center of the Divine Firmament Heaven, an innate divine embryo was conceived, absorbing the power of creation and interpreting the principles of heaven and earth and the Dao of the Nine Heavens.
However, death energy and resentment entangled this innate divine embryo, constantly devouring its life force, suppressing its growth, and preventing it from developing sentience.
Seeing no hope for the revival of the Nine Heavens Divine Embryo, Lei Ze traced the Nine Heavens Divine Embryo and the Nine Heavens Thunder Palace back to their origin, opening up the Nine Heavens Realm and giving birth to a true Nine Heavens Divine Embryo.
Although this destroyed nine innate divine embryos, it yielded an innate divine embryo with even greater potential. Moreover, exchanging nine stillborn fetuses for one living fetus is a win-win situation, no matter how you look at it. After all, something is better than nothing!
However, while this method is good, since this Nine Heavens Divine Embryo originated from the nine great divine embryos, it naturally inherited their death energy and resentment. As long as the death energy is not removed and the resentment is not dispelled, sooner or later, the Nine Heavens Divine Embryo will also turn into a stillborn fetus.
Wailing…
Unable to remove the resentment, Lei Ze could only let the newborn child head towards destruction, and he couldn't help but let out another mournful cry.
On the other hand, Feng Zichen, looking at this Nine Heavens Divine Embryo, had his eyes flashing wildly, and his mind was racing. An audacious idea uncontrollably surfaced in his mind.
This Nine Heavens Divine Embryo was formed from the origin of thunder and possessed part of the power of the Heavenly Dao. Once the innate god and demon within it were born, it could control the power of punishment in heaven and earth, and could be called the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao.
Now, this Nine Heavens Divine Embryo is dying. If one can seize this opportunity to refine it, not only will one obtain a primordial incarnation with boundless potential, but one can also use it to plot for the position of one of the Six Emperors in future generations.
Thinking of this, Feng Zichen's heart stirred. He immediately took out the Myriad Gods Diagram and tossed it onto the Nine Heavens Divine Embryo.
Instantly, endless divine light shone, and the illusory figures of myriad gods appeared, continuously chanting divine incantations around the Nine Heavens Divine Embryo, refining all the death energy.
