Chapter 210 Innate Spiritual Treasure—The Purple Emperor Sword
On the Purple Emperor Sword, earth, fire, water, and wind surged, giving birth to the power of a world, as if about to create the heavens and earth.
"Boom!"
With a deafening explosion, the Purple Emperor Sword shattered, its body breaking into countless fragments, obliterated by the chaotic energy. Only the innate Dao mechanism remained, tightly intertwined with the earth, fire, water, and wind.
Then, a world slowly emerged, with flashing lightning and shimmering stars… various Dao principles alternated, constantly reinforcing the world.
This was the innate origin that the Purple Emperor Sword had previously devoured. Now, at this crucial moment, these innate origins manifested one by one, aiding its further evolution.
As the world became more complete, the laws of heaven and earth began to operate.
Instantly, all the surrounding chaotic energy was absorbed, transformed into the purest innate origin, constantly merging with the laws within the world, gradually giving birth to an innate sword embryo.
"What a treasure!"
The sword embryo was covered with runes, permeated with an innate Dao mechanism; it was clearly an extraordinary object.
With a thought, Feng Zichen channeled all his understanding of the sword path into the sword embryo.
In this way, when the Zichen Sword was born, it would become the instrument of the sword path's enlightenment, growing alongside the sword path itself—truly the strongest magic weapon of the sword path.
Boom!
The world evolved to its limit, suddenly shattering. The origin of a realm began to shrink, all surging into the innate sword embryo.
A dazzling sword light flashed, and the Zichen Sword broke through the sword embryo, reappearing in the world. Instantly, terrifying sword energy swept across all directions, shattering the chaotic energy into fragments.
Earth, fire, water, and wind appeared simultaneously, re-creating the world. The Zichen Sword, born before heaven and earth, nurtured by the world's origin, had received boundless creation.
All its acquired energy transformed into innate Daoist rhyme, completely reversing its acquired nature to innate, advancing to an innate spiritual treasure, ranking among the superior grade, containing thirty-three innate divine restrictions.
"Good!"
"With this sword in hand, my confidence in establishing the Innate Sword Dao has increased even more!"
Taking the Zichen Sword and sensing the Dao aura emanating from its blade, Feng Zichen couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.
This was no joke!
Feng Zichen frequently used the Zichen Sword in combat, causing it to become inseparable from the Dao of the sword, his entire body brimming with sword Dao energy.
Now, the Zichen Sword had transformed into an Innate Spiritual Treasure, and that wisp of sword Dao energy had thus transformed into Innate Qi energy, allowing Feng Zichen to glimpse some of the mysteries of the Innate Sword Dao.
He also had some clue as to how to reverse the Innate Sword Dao.
"Chaos, truly a treasure land!"
"I don't know when I'll be able to come here again!"
His entry into the Great Chaos this time was truly a stroke of luck. Otherwise, with the barrier of heaven and earth in place, he would never have been able to leave the Primordial World
until his cultivation reached the Quasi-Saint realm. Who knows how many years it would take for him to break through to the Quasi-Saint realm?
The opportunity was rare, so Feng Zichen planned to cultivate here for a while, organize his gains, and resolve some minor troubles.
"Come forth!"
Pointing at the Chaos Pearl, two beams of light flew out—two innate Dao embryos… the Yin-Yang Dao Embryo and the Three Talents Dao Embryo.
These two Dao embryos had been within the Chaos Pearl for many years, yet they hadn't emerged, causing Feng Zichen some anxiety.
Today, taking advantage of the special environment of chaos, he intended to hasten their birth.
"Chaos Grand Array, activate!"
With a hand seal, Feng Zichen activated the Chaos Pearl, setting up the Chaos Grand Array.
One after another, innate Dao diagrams flew out, overlapping to form a Great Dao Divine Diagram, slowly unfolding within the chaos, absorbing the chaotic energy from all directions.
Among these ten Dao diagrams, following the One Yuan Dao Diagram and the Five Elements Dao Diagram, the Six Harmonies Dao Diagram merged with the Six Harmonies Divine Bell, completely transforming from illusion to reality, multiplying the power of the Chaos Grand Array!
The Six Harmonies Divine Bell was a top-grade innate spiritual treasure that Feng Zichen obtained from an ancient ruin. However, it had long been shattered, causing its grade to drop.
Only after being nurtured by the Chaos Pearl and the World Tree did it barely recover to the upper-grade level, unable to advance any further.
But that was enough!
It was sufficient to preside over the Chaos Array!
Rumbling!
As the grand formation operated, streams of chaotic energy were refined, transforming into the purest primordial Yin-Yang energy and primordial Six-Harmony energy.
This energy flowed continuously into the Yin-Yang Dao Embryo and the Six-Harmony Divine Embryo, accelerating their evolution.
Moreover, in the other illusory primordial Dao diagrams, corresponding primordial energy was also born, constantly evolving, seemingly about to transform into Dao embryos and nurture primordial spiritual treasures.
Noticing this, Feng Zichen was delighted and silently calculated using the Primordial Eight Trigrams.
"Alas! What a pity."
After a long while, Feng Zichen sighed.
In his calculations, if the Chaos Grand Formation continued to operate, it would give birth to five high-grade primordial spiritual treasures in about a hundred million years, making the Chaos Grand Formation completely perfect.
However, a hundred million years was a time Feng Zichen couldn't possibly wait for.
This method was useless!
He didn't want to wait even ten thousand years, let alone a hundred million!
"World Tree, go!"
Feng Zichen used his divine power to move the World Tree to the center of the Chaos Array. He used the world power hanging from the World Tree to replace his own magic power to activate the Chaos Array.
Instantly, the Chaos Array erupted with all its might, and the Great Dao Divine Diagram expanded dramatically, taking in even more chaotic energy. The refining power also surged, with a large amount of chaotic energy being refined every breath.
This caused the Yin-Yang Dao Embryo and the Three Talents Dao Embryo to be unable to absorb so much chaotic energy for the time being.
"Swallow!"
Feng Zichen's heart stirred, and the excess chaotic energy surged towards him, constantly cleansing his physical body.
However, he did not enter into cultivation at this point, but instead took out the Primordial Dao Bell.
Inside, there was still a Primordial Ferocious Beast at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal that needed to be dealt with.
"Fellow Daoist Illusion Venerable!"
"Your death tribulation,"
"It has arrived!"
Retracting the illusory image of Buzhou Mountain and releasing the suppressive power of the Primordial Dao Bell, Feng Zichen shouted sharply.
"Where is this..."
"What calamity?"
Suddenly regaining his senses, the Illusionary Venerable was momentarily confused, and upon hearing Feng Zichen's roar, he couldn't help but feel puzzled.
But then, he realized.
"Here, here..."
"It's the Great Chaos Beyond the Boundary!"
"This is impossible! With the barrier of heaven and earth in place, how could a Great Luo Golden Immortal like you leave the Primordial World and come to the Great Chaos Beyond the Boundary?"
The familiarity stemming from his bloodline made the Illusionary Venerable recognize this place, and in his fear and disbelief, he roared at Feng Zichen.
Chaos, that's the graveyard of Great Luo Golden Immortals!
If one were to accidentally fall into it, preventing their true spirit from returning to the Primordial World, then even if they perished, they would not be able to be resurrected in the Primordial World.
Thus, Feng Zichen's purpose in bringing him here was self-evident.
How could the Illusionary Venerable not be afraid? How could he not be shocked!
"Fellow Daoist, you are a god-demon born from the essence and blood of the Chaos Demon God. And this place is the birthplace of the Chaos Demon God."
"Perhaps you might even encounter them here?"
Feng Zichen said to Huan Zun with a smile.
