Xuan Qing had once heard Kui Niu, the mount of Sect Master Tongtian, say that the Three Pure Ones' Lightning Arts were comprehended from their incomplete Pangu heritage and Dao Ancestor Hongjun's "Purple Firmament Divine Thunder." Although each had its own profound mysteries, they shared the same origin, containing a trace of the true meaning of "Purple Firmament Divine Thunder" and "Dutian Divine Thunder."
At this moment, after successively observing the Pangu Dharma Idol and Ancestor Shaman Qiangliang of Thunder performing the "Dutian Divine Thunder," Xuan Qing grasped a glimmer of opportunity for integration.
"Red Lotus, White Root, Green Lotus Leaf, the Three Religions are originally one family!" he couldn't help but ponder. "The Three Pure Ones share the same origin. Since my eldest martial uncle can perform 'One Qi Manifests as Three Pure Ones,' then I might be able to comprehend 'Three Pure Ones Merge into One Qi'!"
The use of the weak is the Dao's function, and its movement is its reversal. All things in the world are born from existence, and existence is born from non-existence. But conversely, all things in heaven and earth will eventually return to nothingness.
Just like the Great Dao of Yin-Yang, when comprehended to a very deep level, one can transform yin into yang, or yang into yin. As long as one understands the interconnected true meaning of the Great Dao between them, by drawing upon the commonalities of the three Lightning Arts, returning them to their origin, and exhausting the principles of creation, it is not impossible to reverse-engineer "Purple Firmament Divine Thunder" and "Dutian Divine Thunder"!
Although this flash of inspiration was fleeting, it gave Xuan Qing great enlightenment. If he could observe the "Dutian Divine Thunder" or "Purple Firmament Divine Thunder" up close, he might be able to create his own Lightning Arts.
"Using the divine abilities of a Saint to observe the might of the Dutian Divine Thunder is ultimately still a bit short of the mark. To achieve this, I must have close contact!"
Xuan Qing mused, then glanced at the disciples of the Three Religions gathered in the Grand Pure Hall.
He saw Duobao, Jin Ling, Nan Ji, and others also looking as if they had gained some understanding. With their cultivation levels, observing a battle of this magnitude was undoubtedly beneficial, broadening their horizons and deepening their comprehension of the Great Dao. From this, one could also see the Three Pure Ones' earnest intentions.
At the very least, Xuan Qing had benefited greatly!
The battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan was drawing to a close. Although Qiangliang and Zhurong, with the help of Dijiang and Zhujiuyin, had jointly dealt a heavy blow to Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Di Jun had already led numerous Great Luo Demon Gods to set up the "Primordial River Luo Great Formation." After weighing the pros and cons, Dijiang did not continue to attack the Demon Clan.
With the great formation in place, it would not be easy for them to capture the Heavenly Court and destroy the Demon Clan. They had also paid a considerable price earlier to condense the Pangu Dharma Idol with the "Twelve Dutiian God-Demon Great Formation."
If they continued to fight, it would only result in mutual destruction. It would be better to return and recuperate, further refine the great formation, and then seek trouble with the Demon Clan.
Di Jun wished to unify the Great Desolation, gather immeasurable fortune, break the shackles of the Heavenly Dao, and prove the Dao as a Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal. Naturally, he wanted to subdue all the myriad races of the Great Desolation.
The Witch Clan, however, only revered Pangu and did not worship Hongjun, so how could they be willing to submit to Di Jun?
The conflict between the two clans was an inevitable trend, a desire of the people, and could not be avoided.
"Alright!"
Grand Pure One Laozi let out a shout. "Observing battles of this level has many benefits for you all, but do not let your minds be disturbed!"
Primordial Lord of Heaven also nodded. "What your Martial Uncle says is correct. You are disciples of Saints, and with our teachings, in time, you may become powerful beings of that level!"
Sect Master Tongtian was even more direct. "Cultivation is like climbing a mountain. Do not lose your spirit just because you see the towering mountains and the vast, surging wind, making it difficult to see the whole picture! If you do not have a fearless heart, your future achievements will be limited to this!"
"Disciples accept your teachings!"
At this moment, whether it was Xuandu, the disciples of the Heavenly Origin Sect, or the disciples of the Intercepting Sect, they all cupped their hands in salute. Just as Primordial Lord of Heaven had said, they were disciples of Saints, capable of learning Saintly divine abilities, and with Saints constantly expounding the Great Dao for them, they might achieve the Quasi-Saint realm in the future.
Seeing this, the Three Pure Ones nodded with satisfaction and then proceeded to begin their sermons.
Saints were embodiments of the Dao. When they spoke of the Dao, their explanations were profound yet easy to understand. Boundless Daoist principles descended, and myriad golden lotuses spontaneously rained down from the void.
All the disciples benefited greatly.
Xuan Qing was also immersed in it, and holding onto his previous idea, he wanted to find the commonalities in the Three Pure Ones' Daoist methods.
He had already cultivated the "Innate Wind-Lightning Dao Body," making his comprehension of the Great Dao of Thunder twice as effective with half the effort. He had an advantage that ordinary people could not match. The core of his comprehension was the content related to Lightning Arts that the Three Pure Ones were discussing.
The Grand Pure Divine Thunder was upright and peaceful, like the flow of yin and yang, the generation and overcoming of the five elements. It appeared ordinary, but within extreme stillness, it could unleash fierce killing intent.
The Jade Pure Divine Thunder was fierce and overbearing, containing a trace of Primordial Lord of Heaven's true intent, like the primordial killing intent at the time of creation, and also containing the infinite changes of all phenomena.
As for the Supreme Pure Divine Thunder, it took an unconventional approach, emphasizing speed. Often, before any sound was heard, the vast thunder had already struck!
These three divine thunders perfectly matched the Great Dao of the Three Pure Ones and were also very much like their personalities.
"Thunder is the pivot of heaven and earth!"
Xuan Qing had a sudden realization. A yin-yang taiji diagram appeared around him, and the three types of lightning intertwined, ceaselessly generating and destroying, actually evolving a small world constructed from thunder in the void.
He attempted to use the "Grand Pure Divine Thunder" to moderate the "Jade Pure Divine Thunder" and the "Supreme Pure Divine Thunder," but he repeatedly failed, and the small world collapsed several times.
"Could it be that these three divine thunders are truly irreconcilable, just like the contradictions between the Three Pure Ones?"
Xuan Qing thought to himself, then couldn't help but shake his head. He remembered Kui Niu saying that before the Three Pure Ones became Saints, especially when they first took form, they had encountered many powerful enemies and had to work together to deal with them.
"External force!"
Suddenly, Xuan Qing had a flash of inspiration. He seemed to have fallen into a misconception.
He had been thinking of using the "Dao of Grand Pure" to balance the "Dao of Jade Pure" and the "Dao of Supreme Pure," without considering the use of external forces for moderation.
The Three Pure Ones ultimately originated from the same source. Although their Daoist philosophies differed, if they encountered an existence that required them to unite against an external enemy, it was not impossible for them to join hands.
It was like how, after the Three Pure Ones separated, they tacitly suppressed the Western Teachings, not allowing Daoist Jieyin and Daoist Zhunti to spread their teachings in the East.
Did Xuan Qing have any external forces?
Indeed, he did!
He had once cultivated the Creation Yuan Gong bestowed by Nuwa and condensed a breath of creation qi. This was the power he possessed besides the lineage of the Three Pure Ones.
With this thought, Xuan Qing immediately mobilized that breath of creation qi, intending to use the power of creation to smelt the three divine thunders and transform them into his own Lightning Arts.
"Rumble!"
The creation qi surged out of his body, transforming into a furnace between birth and destruction, swallowing the essence of heaven and earth, and directly enveloping the three divine thunders.
"One Qi, Three Pure Ones, Three Pure Ones, One Qi!"
The Taiyi Realm is the process of manifesting all phenomena with a breath of Innate Ancestral Qi, equating one's body with the universe and aligning one's Dao with the void, thus transforming the Golden Immortal Dao fruit into the Grand Unity Dao fruit.
The Taiyi Realm is actually a transitional realm. Some beings with profound fortune are born as Grand Unity, possessing both "Golden Immortal characteristics" and "Grand Unity characteristics" from birth, and do not require the cultivation of the Taiyi Realm at all.
However, the cultivation of the Taiyi Realm is not superfluous. It serves to connect the past and the future, transforming the immortality of a Golden Immortal into the indestructibility of a Grand Unity.
The core lies in that breath of Innate Ancestral Qi!
And at this moment, under the tempering of that Creation Furnace and the Great Dao of Refining, the three divine thunder origins have shown a trace of fusion and unification!
"Refine!"
Xuan Qing's heart was inspired, and he shouted loudly. The Creation Furnace operated with all its might, and the Great Dao of Refining drew in the essence of heaven and earth, attempting to forcibly fuse the three divine thunders.
