Chapter 319: Great Saint Body
Although the Xuanhuang Qi is not as good as the Xuanhuang Qi, the Taihuang Dao body cultivated with it will also possess the top physical combat power, with almost no shortcomings in attack, defense, endurance, or physique.
A fourth-order spirit body made of this material is at the top level among those at the Nascent Soul stage.
However, although the Xuanhuang Qi is powerful, it is also too overbearing. Such a pool of Xuanhuang Qi is enough to make even a Yuanying Zhenjun explode and die.
Even though the spiritual liquid prepared with spiritual medicines can neutralize some of its lethality, it is definitely not something that ordinary cultivators can match.
Even if one has an unrivaled perfect combat body, daring to step into it to cultivate and rebuild the Taihuang Holy Body is almost the same as seeking death.
Ye Chongyun also felt the destructive power in it, and couldn't help but say with some solemnity: "If I eventually die in the Dao, please send my relics back to Chilong Mountain."
The Great Desolate Saint Lord sighed slightly, and then said: "Since you want to take this path, even if you are the descendant of my Great Desolate lineage, I will accept you as my disciple regardless of whether you can succeed in the end."
"If anything unexpected happens, I will compensate you from the Red Dragon Mountain."
"Thank you very much, Master."
Ye Chongyun bowed quickly. He believed that as a great Yuanhou giant, the Holy Lord of Taihuang would not deceive him, a mere third-level physical cultivator.
The Great Saint Lord smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go, I hope you can succeed."
"Ah."
Ye Chongyun nodded, and without further delay, he stepped directly into the holy pool.
As soon as he stepped into the holy pool, he felt an enormous surge of energy, and an extremely domineering aura of mystery poured into his limbs and bones.
In an instant, tiny cracks appeared on his body, but they were forcibly resisted by the bronze Taoist patterns.
"The Black Bronze Battle Body is truly extraordinary. It can actually withstand the power of the Holy Pool."
The Holy Lord of Taihuang nodded, then looked at the golden-robed elder and the purple-robed elder.
The two middle-stage Nascent Soul elders understood and immediately mobilized their magic power to activate the holy pool. In an instant, mysterious ancient Taoist patterns emerged, and countless Taoist essences intertwined and continuously merged into Ye Chongyun's body.
The most crucial power of the Holy Pool is to dissolve the black copper battle body treasure pattern in Ye Chongyun's body, so that he can be broken and then reborn in Nirvana, and cultivate a more powerful Taihuang Holy Body treasure pattern.
At this time, the treasure patterns in Ye Chongyun's body were erased bit by bit, and the treasure patterns and the magical powers of his physical body were transformed into the purest origin.
Without the blessing of the treasure pattern of the Black Bronze Battle Body, Ye Chongyun could no longer hold on, and a large number of cracks began to appear on his body.
"Hold fast the mind and do not fear the great terror of life and death."
"You can only hope to survive if you break it down and then rebuild it, and use the essence of your combat body to reshape the Great Desolate Holy Body."
The Holy Lord of Taihuang opened his mouth to remind him, then sacrificed a jade bottle and poured a ball of light green spiritual liquid onto Ye Chongyun's body.
If Ye Linyuan were here, he would certainly recognize the origin of this green spiritual liquid. This spiritual liquid is called Life Spiritual Liquid, which is made from the essence of fourth-level spiritual wood and fourth-level spiritual water.
One portion of this spiritual liquid is equivalent to a fourth-grade healing pill, but the Holy Lord of Taihuang poured out a whole bottle of it as if it were free.
Nourished by this spiritual fluid, Ye Chongyun was finally able to maintain a glimmer of life.
He decisively suppressed all distracting thoughts and fears, absorbed the energy of Xuanhuang wholeheartedly, and comprehended the mysteries of the Holy Pool and the Taihuang Holy Decision, in order to complete this life-threatening holy sacrifice ceremony.
As time went by, Ye Chongyun quickly used the origin of his destroyed combat body as the foundation, absorbed the Taoist essence of the Holy Pool and the Qi of the Mysterious Wilderness, and cultivated an even more powerful treasure pattern.
It was a light golden treasure pattern, filled with mysterious and wild power, and there was also an immortal power blessing his body.
With the birth of these treasure patterns, the deterioration of his body suddenly slowed down, and as the number of new treasure patterns increased, his physical strength gradually resisted the erosion of the holy pool without him noticing.
"It's done."
Seeing that Ye Chongyun's injuries were no longer getting worse, the three people outside the Holy Pool breathed a sigh of relief.
They knew very well that as long as Ye Chongyun could maintain his balance, then as time went by and as he cultivated more and more Taihuang Holy Body treasure patterns, the Xuanhuang Qi of the Holy Pool would no longer be able to hurt him.
As he gradually absorbs the power of the entire holy pool, he will eventually cultivate into the fourth-level Taihuang Holy Body and possess a powerful foundation that can reach the late Nascent Soul stage.
You know, the Taihuang Holy Land has great potential, and there is no bottleneck before breaking through the late Nascent Soul stage.
Even if he breaks through to the late Nascent Soul stage, relying on the unique secret medicine of the Taihuang lineage, it is almost certain that he can reach the late Nascent Soul stage.
"Something seems wrong."
Suddenly, the pupils of Saint Lord Taihuang shrank suddenly.
But when he looked at Ye Chongyun, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
The two elders took a look and immediately discovered that golden Qi slowly emerged from Ye Chongyun's body and continued to coil around him.
This gas seems to be very different from the Xuanhuang Qi, and seems to be a higher level of energy.
Thinking of this, the golden-robed elder couldn't help but say in shock: "It's pure gold, shining brightly, just like the sun across the sky. Could this be the legendary Great Desolate Qi?"
"After 700,000 years, is it possible that another true Great Desolation Saint Body will appear in my Great Desolation Holy Land?"
The two elders spoke one after another, each showing an expression of great surprise.
The Holy Lord of Taihuang also showed a look of surprise, because in the vast universe, there is an extremely special original force called Xuanhuang Qi.
The Xuanhuang Qi is the origin of heaven and earth. It is the supreme energy at the level of Lianxu. It is also an energy that only the immortals in the fairy world are qualified to touch. It is a rare thing for many immortals.
The Xuanhuang Qi is the primary form of the Xuanhuang Qi, and can also be said to be the thinnest Xuanhuang Qi.
The so-called Taihuang Qi belongs to a higher level of Xuanhuang Qi, which is an intermediate form of Xuanhuang Qi. Its quality is only one step away from pure Xuanhuang Qi.
The reason why the former Taihuang Saint King cultivated the Taihuang Saint Body was because he mastered the legendary Taihuang Qi.
It was precisely by relying on the power of the Taihuang Qi that he was able to dominate the world and be invincible, and eventually became the only Yuanshen God Sovereign in the Haotian Ancient Realm.
Legend has it that once one cultivates the Taihuang Qi and uses it to forge the legendary Taihuang Holy Body, one will possess invincible combat power among those of the same level. Even if one sets foot in the realm of Yuanshen, one will be one of the best in the same realm.
If it were in ancient times, it would be possible to further master the Xuanhuang Qi and become a supreme refining master who has cultivated a sixth-level holy body, the "Xuanhuang Immortal Body".
However, since the Saint Lord Taihuang, the Taihuang lineage has been passed down for more than 700,000 years, and there has not been a second peerless genius who has mastered the Taihuang energy.
The saints of all generations only mastered the Qi of Xuanhuang and used it to forge a Xuanhuang body which was weaker than the Qi of Xuanhuang.
"In this era, the cultivation environment is extremely difficult. Those who can break through the Nascent Soul Great Perfection are all peerless geniuses. In ancient times, they were invincible figures who had the hope of reaching the Great Perfection of the Soul." "The Xuanhuang Saint Body is much worse than that. At most, it can only reach the late stage of the Nascent Soul. There is little hope of breaking through the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul, and there is no hope of reaching the realm of the Soul at all."
“But if I can master the energy of the Great Desolation and gain a stronger Great Desolation Saint Body, perhaps a second Yuanshen Saint Sovereign will appear in my Great Desolation Holy Land and suppress the Haotian Ancient Realm for another 10,000 years.”
The golden-robed elder slowly opened his mouth and told the ancient legend about the Taihuang Holy Body.
But he didn't quite understand, and couldn't help but ask in confusion: "In the sect's legend, doesn't it say that it's impossible to cultivate the Great Desolate Saint Body? Why was he able to cultivate the Great Desolate Qi?"
The Great Lord calculated for a moment, then suddenly looked at Ye Chongyun with some emotion, and said helplessly: "It turns out that we are on the wrong path."
"wrong?"
Upon hearing this, the two elders couldn't help but show surprise.
Upon seeing this, the Great Desolate Saint Lord smiled bitterly and said, "In the past seven hundred thousand years, there have been no less than a hundred Xuanhuang Saint Bodies in my Great Desolate lineage, but they all relied on the Great Desolate Saint Blood in their bodies to cultivate the Great Desolate Saint Technique."
"We relied on the power of our bloodline to cultivate the Great Desolate Sacred Art. Although we have avoided a life-or-death situation, how can we glimpse the true meaning of the Great Desolate Sacred Art?"
"Only by putting aside the power of external things and using one's own perseverance and persistence to see through life and death can one condense a higher level of Great Desolation Qi and then cultivate into the legendary Great Desolation Saint Body."
The Holy Lord of Taihuang spoke slowly and leisurely, revealing a bit of envy and emotion.
Ye Chongyun has already initially condensed the Taihuang Qi, and the next step for him to cultivate into a true Taihuang Holy Body is only a natural outcome.
Once the Taihuang Holy Body is cultivated, it is destined to possess invincible combat power at the same level. Such combat power surpasses the true spirits of heaven and earth, and it will be a piece of cake for an early Nascent Soul to defeat a middle Nascent Soul.
With the perfect cultivation in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he might be able to face off against the giants in the late stage of Nascent Soul head-on.
"The Great Desolate Saint Body has appeared again. It seems that the legendary golden age is about to come."
"Unfortunately, I don't have much time left. I'm afraid I won't be able to see the day when he grows up."
The Holy Lord of Taihuang sighed slightly in his heart. This time, the Golden-Winged Roc King came to make trouble because he was worried that he would cultivate a new Xuanhuang Holy Body in the last moments, so he wanted to cut off his way to survive and prolong his life.
In this way, even if the Holy Lord Taihuang can cultivate a new Xuanhuang Holy Body, he will not be able to protect this Xuanhuang Holy Body from continuing to grow.
But now, Ye Chongyun unexpectedly cultivated a stronger Taihuang Holy Body, but this might not be a good thing.
Those forces that want to share the Taihuang Holy Land may not be willing to see the rise of a new Taihuang Holy Body.
Because this is an invincible figure who is destined to reach the great perfection of the Nascent Soul and may even be able to sweep away the world and become a Heavenly Lord.
"Will the Golden Age really come?"
The purple-robed elder at the side spoke up, revealing a curious look.
The Great Lord was silent for a long time, and finally said uncertainly: "Legend has it that before the ancient war against the sky, an unparalleled great power once predicted that there might be a golden age in the future."
"In this golden age, the spiritual energy of the nine ancient worlds will be restored to its peak, and the cultivation environment will be greatly improved."
"Perhaps there will be multiple Yuanshen Tianjuns appearing at the same time, and it is even possible that a new Lianxu Supreme will be born."
"This point has been calculated by the Yuanshen Tianjun of the Haotian Ancient Realm and the successive owners of the Tianyan Tower, and they all agree with this statement."
"According to their calculations, this golden age will only happen within a few thousand years."
The Great Desolate Saint spoke slowly and said with some regret: "Logically speaking, the revival of spiritual energy must have precursors, and the revival of Dao essence should also have initial signs."
"But now it seems that there is still no sign of the spiritual energy between heaven and earth recovering."
Upon hearing this, the two elders were both surprised and delighted.
They have become accustomed to the current cultivation environment, but they have long envied the cultivation environment in ancient times.
With their talents, if they could live in ancient times, it would be almost certain that they would break through to the level of Yuanshen Daojun.
When the Great Lord of the Wilderness said this, he added solemnly: "In the Haotian Ancient Realm, many old immortals and some outstanding people with the potential of Yuanshen in the past dynasties are waiting for the opening of the Golden Age."
"Those old immortals don't have much time left, and most of them are hiding in forbidden areas, and they will most likely wait until the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is fully restored before they come out."
“But those ancient geniuses who have been sealed up to this day with special methods will most likely be born a few years earlier in order to welcome the golden age in their prime, and plan ahead for the opportunity to step into the realm of the primordial spirit.”
"So if nothing unexpected happens, the competition for the chance of a soul in this life may be the most intense in hundreds of thousands of years."
“Ye Chongyun was able to cultivate the Great Desolate Saint Body. Whether it was his potential or his combat power, he would have been qualified to compete for the number one spot in the world ten thousand years ago. However, in this life, I dare not say that he will definitely be able to achieve the Dao of the Yuan Shen.”
At this point, the Great Desolate Saint Lord looked at Ye Chongyun again, then took a deep breath and said: "But he is a Great Desolate Saint Body after all, and he is probably the strongest even in the Golden Age."
“If the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can really be restored and enter an era where both Yuanshen Daojun and Yuanshen Tianjun coexist, he will most likely be able to step into the realm of Yuanshen Tianjun.”
Upon hearing this, the two elders couldn't help but reveal a hint of anticipation.
It is really hard to say how far the supreme hero who has cultivated the Taihuang Holy Body can go in the future. This depends on his future opportunities and the extent to which the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will recover.
If the Nine Heavens Ancient Realm can completely recover to its ancient level, then there will be hope of breaking through to the realm of the Supreme Refining Void.
Of course, this possibility is not great. If the spiritual energy has not recovered, Ye Chongyun will definitely become a top supreme giant in the future. If the spiritual energy is fully restored, he will most likely be able to break through the realm of the primordial spirit.
"Dong, dong, dong——"
Just as the three were discussing, a heartbeat sound like thunder was heard from the holy pool.
But the spiritual liquid in the holy pool had dried up, and Ye Chongyun was sitting cross-legged in the holy pool, surrounded by a thick golden mist.
The golden mist was so overbearing that just a wisp of it could shatter a mountain into dust.
Three thousand golden mists were swirling around Ye Chongyun, emitting a power that was enough to obliterate everything.
"Chong-"
At this moment, as Ye Chongyun opened his eyes, a brilliant golden light suddenly shot straight into the sky, and a domineering aura almost made the entire blessed land tremble slightly.
The Great Desolate Saint Lord quickly activated his formation to suppress it, then looked at Ye Chongyun and said, "Quickly restrain the Great Desolate Qi."
Ye Chongyun nodded and absorbed all the golden mist. He then bowed to the Great Desolation Saint Lord and the others and said, "Thank you, Master, and the two elders for protecting me."
