The World Purifying White Lotus's Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell Technique. The Prehistoric World had three great ultimate formations!
Each possessed the power of a Saint!
The first was his master Sect Master Tongtian's Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation!
Once the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation was deployed, it could not be broken without the Four Saints.
Then Sect Master Tongtian had been gang-beaten by four Saints.
The second was the Witch Race's Great Array of Twelve Du Tian Shen Sha. Formed by the Twelve Ancestral Witches, it activated the Pangu Essence Blood within their bodies and used their own Great Dao laws as its foundation, with endless earthly fiendish energy as its source. It condensed the True Body of Pangu and struck with power comparable to a Saint.
Its power was terrifying enough to destroy Heaven and Earth!
The last was the demon race's Great Array of Zhou Tian Stars.
With the Sun Star and Moon Star as its core formation eyes, it mobilized the power of the three hundred and sixty-five major stars of Zhou Tian, supplemented by the strength of billions upon billions of stars, and was deployed through the core treasure, the Star Banners.
Once the Great Array of Zhou Tian Stars was deployed, the entire Prehistoric World lay within its range of attack.
It likewise possessed the might of a Saint.
Moreover, the Great Array of Zhou Tian Stars had another ability.
It could use the power of the stars to draw Chaos energy into the Prehistoric World and convert it into Innate Spiritual Energy to nourish the Prehistoric World.
This was also an immense merit, which was why the Heavenly Court received "wages" every year for doing this job.
Being close to the source gave it the first advantage. Relying on the Great Array of Zhou Tian Stars, the Heavenly Court could provide itself with practically "unlimited" Innate Spiritual Energy. This was one of the reasons for the Heavenly Court's strength.
If he could borrow the Heavenly Court's Great Array of Zhou Tian Stars to study, he might gain some unexpected insights.
But that possibility was infinitesimal.
So low that it was virtually nonexistent.
The Great Array of Zhou Tian Stars was the foundation upon which the Heavenly Court stood. How could they possibly lend it to him for study so casually?
Not even if he was a Saint's disciple.
"Let's take it one step at a time."
Cangyuan sighed helplessly.
This matter could not be rushed.
After leaving seclusion, Cangyuan once again sensed the precise location of The Wanderer's Penglai Immortal Island.
Cangyuan discovered that Penglai Immortal Island had already entered the Archaic Star Sea. Perhaps after some more time, it would arrive above the Primordial Land.
Better wait a while longer.
The Archaic Star Sea was the Heavenly Court's territory.
It would not be easy to enter.
"It worked! This treasure succeeded! Hahahaha, this method has a ninety-eight percent chance of success!"
At that moment, the World Purifying White Lotus's silver-bell-like laughter rang out from within the Cangyuan Realm. Her excitement and delight were obvious at a glance.
Cangyuan entered the Cangyuan Realm.
Standing above the Three Lights Divine Water Lake, his Dao Body looked at the World Purifying White Lotus, which radiated purifying white light, and asked curiously, "What succeeded? Why are you so happy? Tell me and let me share the joy."
The World Purifying White Lotus was a Spiritual Treasure and had no need to cultivate. Thus, throughout these long years, she had been researching her own method of Form Transformation.
Now, she had finally devised a plan she considered feasible.
Upon seeing Cangyuan, the World Purifying White Lotus immediately flew over in excitement, circling around him as she happily said, "You're here, Little Pearl. I've figured out how I can undergo Form Transformation."
"Oh?" Cangyuan asked with interest. "What method?"
There had been cases in the Prehistoric World of Innate Spiritual Treasures undergoing Form Transformation.
For instance, Cangyuan himself had formed from a Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—the Sea Calming Pearl.
Another example was True Lord Yu Ding under Primordial Lord of Heaven's Chan Sect, who had attained the Dao through Form Transformation from a Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—the Jade Cauldron.
They had both undergone Form Transformation as Spiritual Treasures.
But... there were limits to Spiritual Treasure Form Transformation.
It was easy enough for low-grade and mid-grade treasures, but once one reached a High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the difficulty increased by far more than ten thousand times.
As for Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasures, there was no need to even mention them.
There was not the slightest hope.
Even if one was fortunate enough to find an opportunity for Form Transformation, at the instant of transformation, it would draw Heavenly Dao's attention, which would send down terrifying Heavenly Dao Lightning Tribulation to destroy and purge it.
As he had said before, Heavenly Dao did not permit beings of this level to undergo Form Transformation.
The same applied to both Spiritual Treasures and spiritual roots.
Therefore, Cangyuan was very curious about what method Xiao Bai had devised for Form Transformation.
The World Purifying White Lotus eagerly explained her idea. "It's actually very simple. Since Heavenly Dao doesn't allow a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure to undergo Form Transformation, I can just abandon my current Dao Body."
"I'll take my lotus seeds and cultivate them anew. Once they bloom to three petals, they will become Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures. Then, I can transfer my consciousness from my current Dao Body to the new one. At the level of a Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, wouldn't that let me bypass the limit set by Heavenly Dao and undergo Form Transformation?"
"Hehe, I'm so smart. I actually found such a method."
Cangyuan: "?!!!!"
This could work!
Cangyuan remembered.
The Prehistoric World records he had read in his previous life had mentioned that after the Investiture of the Gods War ended, the Twelve-Petal Golden Lotus of Merit in The West had part of its origin devoured by Daoist Mosquito, who emerged from the Blood Sea. It had directly fallen from the supreme twelve-petal rank to the High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure rank of nine petals.
Afterward, the Two Sages of the West, as well as the later Buddhism, had spent a long time restoring the Merit Golden Lotus's origin.
Those accounts also mentioned that the Two Sages of the West cultivated the Merit Golden Lotus's seeds until they reached three petals and six petals, then bestowed them upon their trusted disciples.
From this, it could be seen that the lotus seeds of the Four Great Lotus Platforms could all be cultivated.
Cultivated to three petals.
They became Low-grade Houtian Spiritual Treasures.
Cultivated to six petals.
They became Mid-grade Houtian Spiritual Treasures.
And so on.
"Xiao Bai, your plan can absolutely work. How did you come up with this method?"
Cangyuan asked.
The World Purifying White Lotus chuckled sheepishly and said gratefully, "Actually, you gave me the inspiration."
Cangyuan froze, then asked in confusion, "I gave you the inspiration? What do you mean?"
The World Purifying White Lotus said, "Undergo Form Transformation as a Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, then continuously devour the origins of Spiritual Treasures of the same lineage and source to strengthen my foundation and elevate my innate potential."
"Thinking about it carefully, I can do the same. There's no need for me to cling to this Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure body."
The World Purifying White Lotus planned to cultivate all her lotus seeds into Houtian Spiritual Treasures.
Then she would choose one to reside within.
Since the Houtian Spiritual Treasure she cultivated would be derived from her original body and share the same root and source, there naturally would be no rejection. On the contrary, it would be an exceptionally perfect fit.
Once she underwent Form Transformation as a Houtian Spiritual Treasure, she could absorb the other lotus-seed treasures to replenish her origin and elevate her innate potential.
Even if she could not raise her innate potential to the level of an Innate Divine Being, at the very least, she could reach the level of a High Grade Innate Being.
Therefore, this was a highly feasible plan.
But...
"However, there is one difficulty. How can your consciousness be separated from a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure?"
"Over endless years, your consciousness has become deeply rooted within it. Achieving this would likely be impossible even for Great Supernatural Beings, unless... a Saint takes action!"
Cangyuan pondered carefully.
Asking a Saint to help the World Purifying White Lotus separate her consciousness...
The Saint he was most capable of asking was only his master, Sect Master Tongtian.
At that moment, The Choice of Destiny appeared.
"Ding! The World Purifying White Lotus has devised a highly feasible Form Transformation plan. The only difficulty is how to persuade a Saint to take action. Choice one: It is exceedingly difficult to ask a Saint for help. Let the World Purifying White Lotus figure it out herself. Reward: Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Chengying Sword! Choice two: They came from the same place, and the World Purifying White Lotus has even bestowed the host with the grace of aiding his Dao. This favor must be repaid. Refusing to help would be utterly unbrotherly. Reward: Innate Undying Spiritual Light *100!"
Looking at the panel that had appeared before him, Cangyuan directly ignored choice one.
Was he the kind of person who abandoned his friends?
Obviously not.
Besides... the reward for choice two was Innate Undying Spiritual Light!
And there were a hundred of them.
One had to know...
