Deity Transformation Clone

Heavenly Gang stood there, seemingly deep in thought.

In reality, he was waiting for his Master Su Bai's instructions.

As Su Bai's Corpse Puppet, such important decisions naturally fall to Su Bai.

After thinking for a moment...

Su Bai used a more concealed Corpse Control Seal to transmit information to Heavenly Gang, instructing him to comply with the Xuanzhe's arrangements.

Heavenly Gang heard Su Bai's Transmit Message.

He then gave a slight bow and said, "In that case, I will go to the Southern Sea Cultivation World to take charge."

Xuanzhe nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Su Bai.

"Tianshu, come, I'll show you the secrets of advancing to the Nascent Spirit Transformation."

With a thought, the Xuanzhe vanished from the spot.

Su Bai had already gained partial control of the Grotto-Heaven, so he naturally knew clearly where the Xuanzhe had gone. He left Heavenly Gang in place, and with a thought, he mobilized the power of the Grotto-Heaven to follow the Xuanzhe.

Buzz.

Immortal Palace Grotto-Heaven, nestled amidst a Cloud Sea.

Xuanzhe sat cross-legged with his back to Su Bai.

"You noticed it, didn't you, Tianshu?" Xuanzhe said calmly.

Su Bai's heart skipped a beat, but he feigned ignorance. "Xuanzhe, what makes you say that?"

The Xuanzhe slowly shook his head, his gesture conveying a sense of helplessness. "You're just too cautious, kid. Fine, I'll lay my cards on the table."

Then, he turned around, his back to Su Bai, and without the slightest hesitation, he gradually made his body become ethereal, and then he actually separated in the same spot.

In that instant, a startling change occurred in Su Bai's perception.

The Xuanzhe's originally powerful energy body rapidly merged into this Grotto-Heaven like smoke. In my perception, the Xuanzhe's aura filled every part of the Grotto-Heaven, as if he had become one with this world.

"Tianshu, although I am only a fragmented Primordial Spirit, I was once a part of Deity Transformation Cultivator!" The Xuanzhe's voice rang in Su Bai's mind.

"Within this Immortal Palace Grotto-Heaven, do you think you can defeat me with just two Nascent Soul?"

The Xuanzhe's tone was sarcastic.

Su Bai's heart tightened; he could feel the surrounding Grotto-Heaven space beginning to tremble violently.

A terrifying Spiritual Sense Power swept towards him like a surging wave, stirring up the energy within the Immortal Palace Grotto-Heaven and forming a violent storm.

This Spiritual Sense Power combined with the energy of the Grotto-Heaven gave Su Bai a slightly fatal feeling. If it were really coming straight at him, Su Bai was not confident that he could completely block it.

Although he didn't sense any killing intent from the Xuanzhe, who was most likely just displaying his Combat Power, Su Bai dared not be negligent in the slightest.

He quickly mobilized all his Spiritual Power, and the Five-Colored Radiance on his body immediately burned fiercely like flames.

These Five-Colored Radiance are the external manifestation of the [Five Elements Rotation Technique] that Su Bai has cultivated.

This Cultivation Method integrates offense and defense, and the Five Elements within it interact and counteract each other, creating a Endless Vitality and inexhaustible source of power.

When the Five-Colored Spiritual Light arises, they nourish each other, forming a powerful energy cycle that transforms into a five-colored protective shield, allowing Su Bai's power to emerge continuously.

When the Five-Colored Spiritual Light dissipates, it transforms into a cyclical force that annihilates all invading enemies.

Buzz.

With a slight buzzing sound, the distorted scene around them suddenly returned to normal.

A gentle breeze swept by, Xuanzhe reappeared before him in a form created from energy.

He was indeed only demonstrating his own Combat Power, not intending to deal with Su Bai.

"Rest assured, I simply wish to open my heart to you and have a conversation today." The Xuanzhe's voice was calm and gentle, seemingly without any malice.

Seeing this, Su Bai also slowly dispersed the Five-Colored Spiritual Light around him.

"Xuanzhe, what do you have to tell this humble one?" Su Bai asked.

The Xuanzhe smiled slightly and said softly, "Lu Jiu, you're a smart man; you were able to notice the abnormality in me today."

Upon hearing this, Su Bai's heart stirred, and he vaguely guessed what the Xuanzhe was about to say.

Sure enough, the Xuanzhe continued, "I suppose you've already guessed some of the clues. Rather than letting you guess without any evidence, I'd rather tell you myself."

Su Bai nodded and said in a deep voice, "Xuanzhe, this humble Daoist is all ears."

The Xuanzhe gave Su Bai an approving look, then slowly said, "My status within the Immortal Palace is indeed extraordinary; otherwise, I probably wouldn't be the Nascent Soul Cultivator who survived that catastrophe."

At this point, the Xuanzhe paused slightly, seemingly gathering his thoughts, before continuing, "In truth, I am a Primordial Spirit Clone by True Lord Xianyu, the Immortal Palace Founder."

Deity Transformation Cultivator's Clone? Su Bai was shocked upon hearing this.

Although he had some guesses about the identity of the Xuanzhe, he never expected that the other party was actually the Primordial Spirit Clone of Deity Transformation Cultivator!

Xuanzhe seemed to notice Su Bai's surprise. He smiled slightly and continued to explain, "The Immortal Palace is the brainchild of True Lord Xianyu. After successfully advancing to the Deity Transformation Stage, True Lord Xianyu specially separated a Primordial Spirit of his primordial spirit to ensure the inheritance and development of the Immortal Palace, leaving it in the Immortal Palace Immortal Palace to guard it. This Clone became Xuanzhe in the present day."

The Immortal Palace Founder, Primordial Spirit Clone left behind by Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator...

Upon hearing this news, Su Bai was mentally prepared, but still extremely shocked.

However, this also explains why Xuanzhe was able to survive and why he was able to control the entire Immortal Palace Grotto-Heaven as an Immortal Envoy.

"No wonder you said you had the key to advancing to the Spirit Transformation."

"So, you yourself were once Deity Transformation Cultivator," Su Bai said knowingly.

The Xuanzhe shook his head slightly. "Deity Transformation Cultivator is the true body, while I am merely Split Soul. You must understand this. I am not Deity Transformation Cultivator; my true body has already Spirit Ascension Realm."

"However, I am a Primordial Spirit that was separated from the main body after it advanced to the Nascent Spirit Transformation stage, so naturally I possess the memories of the main body's advancement to the Spirit Transformation stage."

"Therefore, I'm not joking when I tell you the key points to advancing to the Spirit Transformation; you can rest assured about that."

Su Bai understood and asked, "What exactly is this Primordial Spirit, and how can it create Clone? Is it unique to Cultivator in the Deity Transformation Stage?"

The Xuanzhe nodded slightly. "The Primordial Spirit is a new 'organ' that arises after Cultivator's Nascent Soul and Divine Sense have completely merged; it is indeed unique to Deity Transformation Cultivator."

"When the Primordial Spirit first glimpses the Power of Principle, it can manipulate the Heaven and Earth Essence, thus granting the Deity Transformation Cultivator unlimited Lifespan and a surge in Combat Power."

"I see." Su Bai nodded.

The Xuanzhe paused for a moment, then said, "I was entrusted with the task of establishing the Immortal Palace and guarding it, so naturally I cannot allow it to perish in my hands."

"Previously, in order to withstand the attacks of the Qiankun Sect Cultivator, I had no choice but to completely merge my Primordial Spirit into the Grotto-Heaven. Although this gave me powerful Combat Power and allowed me to protect the Immortal Palace Grotto-Heaven."

"However, they also lost the ability to leave the Grotto-Heaven's boundaries, and will have to stay within Grotto-Heaven for the rest of their lives."

"Without Nascent Soul Cultivator capable of leaving the palace, the Immortal Palace's development naturally suffered setbacks."

Upon hearing this, Su Bai also cupped his hands slightly, saying, "Your Clone is indeed extremely loyal to me."

The Xuanzhe laughed and said, "I am one with the original body; I am his vassal. To be loyal to him is to be loyal to myself."

"If the true body appears before me, you can withdraw this wisp of my Primordial Spirit at any time, and I can return to my original form. At that time, there will be no more talk of a Clone."

That's true. Although Su Bai was somewhat averse to the idea of Clone, if all the Clone Primordial Spirit Division were as loyal as Xuanzhe, it would indeed be an extremely convenient thing.

"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say, and I've been completely open and honest."

"So, is there anything you'd like to say next?" the Xuanzhe asked.

Su Bai pondered for a moment before speaking, "In that case, I understand. Now that I have become the Immortal Palace Tianshu, I dare not say how to restore the Immortal Palace to its former glory, but when it is within my power and I should take action, I will not feign death."

The Xuanzhe nodded. "That's enough."

"You've already mastered the Tier 4 Divine Ability, haven't you?"

"Just lucky." Su Bai nodded. The Five-Colored Spiritual Light light on his body was quite different. High-Ranked Cultivator could tell at a glance that it was the unique spiritual light of Tier 4 Divine Ability.

Moreover, it was Clone of a knowledgeable Deity Transformation Cultivator like Xuanzhe who immediately recognized that Su Bai Tier 4 Divine Ability.

The Xuanzhe pondered to himself, " At the Nascent Soul Early Stage, he has already cultivated such a top-tier Tier 4 Divine Ability... As long as this child is in the Immortal Palace, the Immortal Palace will definitely be safe."

The biggest problem is that this kid has multiple identities, and how to get him to be willing to contribute more to the Immortal Palace is a question.

It seems we should treat this kid even better in the future, so that he feels a greater sense of belonging to the Immortal Palace.

"I've finished talking about my secret."

"Then sit down, and I'll tell you about the things you need to pay attention to when advancing to the Nascent Spirit Transformation." The Xuanzhe sat cross-legged.

"Thank you." Su Bai then sat down opposite him, quietly waiting for the Xuanzhe to begin his discourse.
