Little Wang Next Door
(Long chapter.)
"The five-colored divine light interprets the five elements, and is nourished by the Yin and Yang energies, and further supplemented by the rhythm of time and the texture of space, thus achieving a perfect blend of form and spirit..." Wang Xuan studied.
Deep within the stone wall lies a true text that elaborates in more detail on the wondrous uses of Primordial Chaos Divine Mud.
He had calmed his agitated emotions and was reflecting on the experience.
"Nine substances, corresponding to extreme numbers, draw in a wisp of true spirit, triggering ten transformations." Wang Xuan read and put it into practice.
In an instant, a drop of blood, enveloping a wisp of Wang Xuan's spiritual seed, fell silently and sank into the clump of divine mud in the swamp.
In an instant, in addition to the nine substances it inherently contained, it was now infused with a spirituality, completing the tenth transformation that transcended the extreme.
In the blink of an eye, the divine mud, which was already somewhat transforming into a human form, acquired a mysterious spiritual aura, as if it were about to come alive, interacting with heaven and earth, and beginning to develop nine orifices.
A misty fog appeared, carrying a hint of chaos.
After undergoing ten transformations, the Primordial Chaos Divine Mud became even more extraordinary.
Even though it was Wang Xuan who facilitated it, he was still deeply astonished. It actually carried a vague Daoist aura, and was naturally close to the rules of the Supernatural Great Universe!
This is quite astonishing, and it seems rather unfathomable.
"No wonder it's called a rare and precious artifact," Wang Xuan exclaimed.
According to the incantation on the stone wall, after he infused the divine mud with his true spirit, the mud was refined by him and became his incarnation.
Moreover, this body contains nine elements, including the Five Elements and Yin Yang, and is imbued with the essence of heaven and earth. When it first possesses another body, it can directly replicate the original body's cultivation and techniques.
"This is somewhat defying the heavens." Wang Xuan's expression was solemn. In just a moment, he could have another version of himself. This was not as simple as a clone.
There are countless secret techniques in the world regarding clones and incarnations, but no matter how much one practices them, they can never compare to the true body.
Now, this lump of Primordial Chaos Divine Mud can almost reshape itself, and it is no less than the original body as soon as it is born.
Wang Xuan looked at the inscription on the stone wall, then at the mud figure in the mud pit, his expression complex. This was a divine creation born from the workings of heaven and earth.
It is both beautiful in form and spirit, and most importantly, it can continue to grow and does not stop here.
According to the inscription on the stone wall, it is stronger than the original body and can be called a natural Dao body. When the time is right, it can abandon the old body and take the Essence, Qi, and Spirit into the Primordial Body.
Wang Xuan disagreed. He believed that external objects were just that—external objects. He could use them, but he would never even consider replacing his true self with them.
He even pondered that if this external object could also cultivate in the future, it could be used to feed back to him and draw upon its origin.
"I really don't believe you're stronger than me. Let's try possessing you now and see if you can copy my abilities."
Wang Xuan had the Dao Control Banner protect him. He sat down cross-legged, his spirit leaving his body and instantly entering the clay figure of a human.
In an instant, this body underwent a miraculous change, mainly because it contained too much Good Fortune Item, which was transformed into cultivation.
In particular, after the tenth transformation of the Primordial Chaos Divine Mud, it evolved into a being with nine orifices. Now, not only is it alive, but the moment Wang Xuan possessed it, this body began to learn his abilities.
His true form shone brightly; the clay figure was like a mirror, reflecting everything about him, making him seem like another version of himself.
At this point, it can be called him.
The clay figure changed its shape and became the likeness of Wang Xuan.
"The Primordial Chaos Divine Mud, which contains the word 'mud,' can be transformed in countless ways and shaped at will. Most importantly, it is exactly the same as the true body, and cannot be distinguished by any Divine Eye or magic eye."
Looking at the records on the stone wall, Wang Xuan discovered some of the abnormal abilities of this clay figure. If it were to commit evil, it would be truly impossible to guard against.
Because he can even adjust his primordial spirit aura to generate consistent mental fluctuations.
At this moment, the clay figure had transformed into a flesh and blood body, still radiating light, like a divine mirror in the sky, revealing Wang Xuan's true form and replicating his abilities.
Subsequently, Wang Xuan was moved, his primordial spirit flickering, because he was shocked to see this Dao body, now made of flesh and blood, begin to replicate his Imperial Daoized texture.
"This actually works?!"
He knew very well how much effort he had expended to get to this point, and now the clay figure was directly starting to acquire his abilities.
"Take a look at him and see if there are any hidden dangers. Go through him from head to toe." Wang Xuan asked Dao Control Banner to examine the new body.
If there are any hidden dangers, such as the innate intelligence of the nine-aperture clay figure, then the harm would be too great, as it would be equivalent to obtaining all of his secrets.
The Dao Control Banner glowed, and the investigation was serious and earnest, without any perfunctory attitude. It was the number one murder weapon in the Mother Universe, having witnessed all kinds of tragedies, such as cuckoos taking over the nest and doing nothing but harm.
"There's no problem. This is just an external object, you can think of it as a weapon. You can fully control it, and when it first possessed you, it cultivated a weapon spirit. It's just that it's special because it's humanoid and it copied you. Its growth rate is fast, its potential is incredibly amazing, and its upper limit is extremely high."
According to the feedback from the Dao Control Banner, there was nothing unusual about this clay sculpture; it was indeed a rare and precious artifact.
Wang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing that even the patterns of the Dao-imperialized were being replicated in his new body made him quite uneasy.
He went to look at the stone wall and studied and pondered the true words behind it.
According to the comments, this thing, when it grows to its final stage, breaks through its limits, transcends the world, and may transform into a human-shaped treasure.
"That's really impressive." Wang Xuan nodded.
However, there is also a problem: the spirit of this Dao body is inherently weaker than that of the original body. Even if the Good Fortune Item contained within is amazing, it cannot directly create a primordial spirit that is no worse than the original body. This is a weakness.
However, as it grows, these shortcomings should be able to be addressed later.
"As long as his primordial spirit doesn't leave his body, he won't be in danger. After all, his skull has Dao-imperialized, which can prevent any sudden attacks targeting his primordial spirit."
Wang Xuan stared at the clay model until the mirror light gradually disappeared, and the replication was complete.
"Hmm?" His primordial spirit had not yet left when he sensed the difference in the clay figure. On the skull, there were indeed many Imperial Dao Texture copied, as were on the Spinal Dragon.
However, the core imprint of the skull of the real body was not copied; the clay model imitated its form but failed to capture its spirit.
Therefore, Wang Xuan continued to possess the body, his primordial spirit studying the skull. The clay skull had various patterns, but it lacked a special mark.
He whispered, "The Dao that belongs exclusively to oneself seems to be the most precious. Even the Primordial Body cannot replicate it. One must comprehend it on one's own and explore to discover different imprints."
Then, he smiled broadly. This trip was well worth it; the gains were immense. This clay sculpture had amazing potential and was a priceless treasure.
With the Primordial Body, he can do many things. The world is so big; having another clay figure to see it will be incredibly exciting.
High in the sky, amidst the cluster of buildings in the void, in the tallest palace, several young men and women argued, discussed, and divided up territory.
Normally, they are either gentle and refined, or have an otherworldly air about them, or seem ethereal and otherworldly, but now they are red-faced, arguing over every little detail, and unwilling to back down.
The black-haired youth Hao Ren, spoke up, "Let's each take a step back. There are many wonders in the garden, so there's no need to argue. Although there are many attendees, they are all just there for show and won't find those treasures before us."
The purple-haired woman, Yan Fei, nodded, her phoenix eyes sweeping over the group, and said, "After all, the descendants of Anomalous Beings will also come here, and it's impossible for you and I to take everything."
The wonders in the in the Good Fortune Garden, the things they most desire and need, have already been predetermined.
But with such a large garden, it's impossible to cover it all at once.
Moreover, since some of the descendants of Anomalous Beings have arrived to participate in the grand event, even the young men and women in the giant palace should not go too far.
Wei Bo, a man with short silver hair, said, "In a couple of days, people from both our families will be coming over. They'll probably be leading outsiders into the Good Fortune Garden to see it. So, Brother Tong, you'll have to wait a couple of days before you use the blood of mad beasts and other beings to water the 'Blood Dao Tree,' and let things cool down first."
Tong Zheng, with his slightly dark complexion, tall stature, and imposing, menacing aura, nodded and said, "No problem."
After some discussion, they decided on their respective prizes, stopped arguing, and toasted each other with tea instead of wine.
Then, Wei Bo stood up and smiled, "Everyone, Sky City has been very lively lately. Famous geniuses, descendants of Anomalous Beings, and the celestial Celestial Maiden is famous throughout the starry sky have all arrived one after another. There are often gatherings and competitions. Why don't you go and take a look and participate?"
After saying that, he turned and walked outside, saying, "I'm going out for a walk."
"Don't cause trouble!" Yan Fei, whose fair forehead had a black line on it, warned him sternly.
Wei Bo laughed and said, "Don't worry, I've always kept a low profile. I'm just going to experience the beauty of the world."
At this point, he paused briefly, turned around, and said, "By the way, I've heard that a strange person from Moon Sacred Lake has run into trouble and needs to step into the mortal world to temper his heart. He might experience worldly emotions. Brother Tong, Brother Hao, why don't you go and try your luck?"
"Really? Now that you say that, I feel more alert." Tong Zheng, with his slightly dark complexion, grinned, revealing his snow-white teeth. He looked strong and fierce.
"Is that all you aspire to?" Yan Fei, the purple-haired woman, scoffed.
"Yan Fei, if your family is looking for a son-in-law, there might be some good candidates in Sky City right now. Since there are invincible true immortals there, there must also be top- Heavenly Grade Expert and the most outstanding Super Peerless. You can go and take a look." After saying this, Wei Bo laughed and disappeared in an instant.
On Yan Fei's white forehead, a black pattern flashed, and a terrifying beam of Dao-imperialized light shot out, crashing outside the giant palace.
Wei Bo materialized, let out a muffled groan, and quickly disappeared into the distance.
He traversed the void, but did not leave the Good Fortune Garden. Instead, he instantly appeared on the ground, intending to take a look before leaving.
"Everyone says the Primordial Body is powerful, stronger than the original body. Let me give it a try. Come here." Wang Xuan's true body clashed with the clay figure to test the strength of this body.
He used a formation to seal off the mountainside and fought against the clay figures. There was no fierce battle; he just tried a few times with great ferocity.
Wang Xuan nodded, quite satisfied. The clay figure was very powerful, but he didn't agree that it surpassed the real body; that kind of legend hadn't become a reality for him.
"The silver-haired youth, Wei Bo, is here." The Dao Control Banner warned him, informing him that someone was approaching.
Like a ghost, Wei Bo arrived in this area silently. He was suspicious. How could the so-called invincible immortal marked with a mark, the genius who won consecutive victories in the Bronze Giant Palace, seem to be near the treasures and wonders?
Wang Xuan was surprised. This person has come again?
In a way, both sides in the Good Fortune Garden and can be considered neighbors. One side is pre-selecting rare items, while the other side is taking action to collect them. They are evenly matched and have both violated the Rules of the Good Fortune Garden.
Wang Xuan flashed to the entrance of the mountain's interior and waited for the man to arrive.
Wei Bo's face was ashen. How did the person he had marked and afflicted with the Mad Beast Talisman end up here?
A mad beast, driven only by instinct, enjoys fighting with ferocious creatures and would never actively seek out rare objects.
He entered, leaving a blur, and immediately spotted the man who seemed out of sorts. Although his eyes were bloodshot, he hadn't completely lost his senses.
"Is it you... who is trying to harm me?" Wang Xuan asked in a hoarse voice. He didn't rush to take action, but wanted to talk to him first and "chat" to understand the situation.
Wei Bo muttered to himself, "He hasn't completely gone mad; he still retains his original consciousness, which is beyond my expectations. He truly deserves to be called a very famous immortal."
He ignored Wang Xuan, frowned, and was about to enter the mountain.
"Why did you try to harm me? What grudge do you hold against me?" Wang Xuan asked.
The silver-haired youth stopped, sensing something amiss. His spiritual senses were extremely sharp; could this man truly be unaffected by the Mad Beast Talisman?
"No grudge." He stood still, looking closely at Wang Xuan, and said, "I once went to the Bronze Giant Palace and saw you fighting with someone in the iron cage. I found it quite interesting. Since you are a so-called invincible immortal, and you have quite a reputation, wouldn't it be interesting to capture you and put you in the garden as a special kind of wild beast?"
Wang Xuan's eyes blazed with fury. Sure enough, there was no real cause and effect between him and the other party. It was just that the other party had watched his cage battle and, on a whim, decided to target him.
"Are you... lawless and doing whatever you want? Deciding other people's fates entirely based on your personal preferences!" Wang Xuan questioned him.
"Although it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, you can understand it that way. We met by chance, and I casually captured you and brought you here. It's not a big deal, is it? The world is vast, and there's not much fairness to be found. The Supernatural Realm is governed by the law of the jungle, so of course it needs some cover-up. But between you and me, there's no need for that, is there? Do I need to embellish it? All things under heaven, all living beings in various parts of the starry sea, are nothing more than straw dogs, manipulated by others. The so-called invincible true immortals are nothing but a joke, it's that simple. Hmm, there is indeed no enmity between you and me."
"Fine, since you're so arrogant, I'm not going to argue with you anymore." The red light in Wang Xuan's eyes disappeared, returning to its clear state. Although annoyed, there was no need to lash out; he would just take action!
"Hmm?" The silver-haired youth had already sensed something was wrong, and now that he was sure, his expression changed completely. This person didn't just retain a remnant of his original consciousness; he hadn't lost it at all.
With a whoosh, he vanished from his spot and traversed space.
However, instead of fleeing, he entered the mountain's interior, anxiously arriving at the mud pit where the Primordial Chaos Divine Mud was born.
As a result, he found another person.
"How dare you tamper with the divine mud?!" He looked at the two people in front and behind him with an icy expression.
Wang Xuan said, "Tell me yourself what your status is. Considering you've given me such a great opportunity, I won't hold your offensive words against you. I'll give you a quick death later."
Wei Bo said coldly, "You straw dog, how dare you speak to me like that? Even if you have obtained a rare treasure, you still have to spit it out!"
As he spoke, his fingertips glowed, and a pale golden rope appeared, interwoven with Supreme Texture, which was terrifying and awe-inspiring.
"A prohibited item... no, it's a rule left behind by a treasure. You really value your life." Wang Xuan was surprised, but didn't seem to care much.
He waved the Dao Control Banner directly. There wasn't much to say at the moment. He had originally wanted to see just how powerful this person was, but now that the other party had revealed his Great Killer Weapon, he might as well just kill him.
He already knew that this person had not revealed his background in the giant palace, and the bag that captured him was also unconscious. Therefore, as long as the silver-haired youth was killed, no one would know that he had been here.
"This is..." Wei Bo was shocked, then his heart trembled with horror. He immediately realized how terrifying the flag that the other party was sweeping towards him was.
With just a light touch, the pale golden rope in his hand shattered and disappeared. Although it was only a rule of the treasure, not the actual item he was carrying, it was enough to show that the other party was carrying Super Contraband Item, extremely terrifying.
At the same time, half of his body disappeared, and the patterns on the flag swept over, which was too terrifying.
"Speak," Wang Xuan said coldly. "Tell me your origins, background, lineage, and everything in detail."
"Don't ask anymore, kill him immediately. Someone left a mark in his sea of consciousness. If it is triggered, it may cause some changes." Dao Control Banner transmitted his voice.
With a soft "poof, "Wang Xuan acted decisively, waving his banner. At the same time, on the opposite side, a clay figure draped in a killing formation also struck out with its sleeve.
With a bang, Wei Bo exploded, his body and soul disintegrated. A strange light bloomed, roared, and swayed, but it still shattered, dimmed, and disappeared.
"It's time to go." Wang Xuan had the Dao Control Banner erase all traces of the place, then he put away the clay model and disappeared in a flash.
He searched for weaknesses in the garden, not wanting to activate the super magic array, hoping to leave quietly and calmly. He probed along the way and finally found a dense Purple Bamboo Forest on the edge of one of the directions, and plunged into it.
Because the Dao Control Banner sensed that this place had a flaw, forming a hidden paradise, from which one could travel far away.
"If I'm not mistaken, the Good Fortune Garden is above the Sky City, in the heavens." Wang Xuan made this guess based on various pieces of information, such as prior knowledge of where the grand event would be held.
The Purple Bamboo Sea is vast and covers a considerable area. He walked around and finally identified a weak spot on the Dao Control Banner, where he began to dig.
"Hmm? Stop, there's movement outside the magic array." The Dao Control Banner stopped him.
Wang Xuan was startled, then quickly retreated and disappeared into the bamboo forest.
Later, even he sensed something was amiss. Half a day later, wisps of celestial mist rose from that area, and a hole appeared, leaving him speechless.
Then, a figure flashed by, and someone silently rushed in, moving extremely fast, leaving a faint afterimage in the path before disappearing into the depths of the Purple Bamboo Sea.
"He looks so familiar!" Wang Xuan was stunned. He had only caught a glimpse of this person in the Bronze Giant Palace and felt that he had seen him before. Afterwards, he guessed that it might be Wu Dalang - Wu Tian.
He's everywhere. No wonder Wu Tian was wanted and offended a top sect but still got away with it. He even managed to break into this place? This left Wang Xuan lost in thought.
Then... he ran away without hesitation!
It's Saturday again, so I'll take a break with one chapter. Don't wait for the late-night chapter, it's over. I'm going to absorb some of the essence of the sun and moon to replenish my energy. See you tomorrow.
