Great Supreme Art

"The Thirty-Three Heavens Guiding Grand Formation!" The thirty-three Body Refinement Realm cultivators only needed to sit still in seclusion, and the cells on their foreheads automatically combined into biochips, which then began to emit information outwards.

This is a formation, but it differs from traditional formations.

Traditional formations generally have a clearly defined area and complex functions.

For example, a killing formation often combines multiple functions such as Illusion Formation and Confinement Formation, and it is fixed within a certain range. If others do not enter the formation, it is difficult for it to be effective.

Yang Ning's formation, however, did not have a clear range; its effect was strong at the center and weakened further away until its effect completely disappeared.

Its function is not complicated; it simply disperses any potentially powerful Spiritual Qi reaction into countless parts, and then spreads them within a 300-kilometer radius through a guiding array.

In this way, even if unusual phenomena or violent surges of Spiritual Qi occur during the decryption process, they will be silently eliminated by the formation.

At most, a cultivator at the Supernatural Power Realm would feel that the concentration of Spiritual Qi around them was slightly higher.

This technique was something Yang Ning casually developed in order to silently expand the Spiritual Qi produced by Spirit Plant. However, because it involved increasing the concentration of Spiritual Qi in the area, which did not align with Yang Ning's plans, it was shelved.

But that's how technology works; some technologies that seem useless at first may shine in other areas.

In addition, when Yang Ning was looking at the Vast Universe Records, he discovered that the magnetic field changes caused by the birth of many treasures could also cause changes in the weather, and even attract auroras and rainbows.

But that's not enough; after all, this involves Supreme Dao Arts.

The decryption process could even trigger earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and the Jiang Yun Northern Foothills happen to be located on an earthquake zone.

So during those four years, Yang Ning also used nanomaterials disguised as ants to dig out lava tunnels under Purple Heart City, connecting them to the sea and diverting the volcanoes that should have erupted from the mountain into the ocean.

Then, fissures are excavated into the high-pressure rock layers to reduce the pressure on the tectonic plates.

He had done everything he could; if something still went wrong, it could only mean that he and Jiang Yun Nation were not meant to be.

"17,428 pieces of Purple Heart Stone!" Xie Zixing was a fifteen-year-old girl with bright eyes, white teeth, and a pretty and lovely appearance.

On the surface, she had no connection with the thirty-three people, but the Purple Heart Stone obtained by the thirty-three people did indeed end up in her possession.

Moreover, it wasn't just the thirty-three of them; many other cultivators at the Body Refinement Realm who had previously undergone trials also inexplicably found their Purple Heart Stone here.

In addition, there are those circulating in the market and those circulating on the black market.

The Purple Heart Stone, gathered from various veins, both overt and covert, have formed a small mountain!

The two Supernatural Power Realm cultivators guarding Purple Heart City never imagined that someone could have hidden so many Purple Heart Stone right under their backsides!

You can't blame them. No one has been able to solve this secret for four thousand years. The cultivators guarding Purple Heart City have long treated this mission as an ordinary guarding mission. They are too busy cultivating and enjoying themselves to have time to use their Divine Sense to dig three feet into the ground for scanning!

Xie Zixing looked at the densely packed Purple Heart Stone in front of her, her eyes showing no emotion, and calmly began to circulate a Peerless Divine Abilities.

<Purple Gold Coiling Dragon Body>

Layers of purple-gold dragon scales suddenly appeared on Xie Zixing's body!

That's right, she's a Qi Refining Stage cultivator!

Cultivating a Body Refinement Realm clone is vastly different from cultivating a Qi Refining Stage clone, mainly because the former can grow naturally, while the latter requires forced growth.

An unnatural rate of growth, once exposed, will inevitably attract the attention of some people with ulterior motives.

But if it's for Supreme Divine Ability, then some risks are worth taking!

Moreover, as long as there are few examples, they can always find an excuse to cover it up.

Purple scales gradually appeared on her body, and then Xie Zixing felt as if there was a close connection between herself and the Purple Heart Stone in front of her!

She even learned the true use of the Purple Heart Stone!

She picked up a piece of Purple Heart Stone, crushed it, and the purple core of the Purple Heart Stone transformed into a purple fluid that flowed into his body through her fingertips!

"Ouch, it hurts!" In an instant, the veins on Xie Zixing's snow-white arm bulged, and the exposed blood vessels were stained purple!

Moreover, a sharp, stinging pain begins in the blood vessels and spreads to the muscles, bones, heart, lungs, and even the entire body.

At the cellular level, Yang Ning, through the Nanorobot, saw the purple liquid transform into streaks of purple mist, passing through the cell membrane, through the cell nucleus, and then directly attaching to Xie Zisheng's DNA!

"Fortunately, I cloned Xie Zisheng using Jiang Yunxi's DNA!" Yang Ning thought to himself with a smile.

Jiang Yunxi is the only surviving descendant of the Jiang Yun bloodline after the fall of the Jiang Yun Nation, and is known as the Little Princess of Jiang Yun.

Although she is called a little princess, she is actually over four thousand years old.

Her cultivation level was not high, only at the Qi Refining Fourth Level. She shouldn't have been able to live for four thousand years, but the Great Luo Sect, for the sake of Jiang Yun's legitimacy, forcibly used life-extending pills to keep her alive.

However, the old lady is not in good condition. She is hunched over and has a dull gaze. In fact, she is on the verge of death.

It's not difficult to obtain the DNA of someone like that.

Judging from the scenes of these purple qi successfully merging with Xie Zixing, Jiang Yunxi is a genuine descendant of the royal family of Jiang Yun Nation, and not someone hired by the Great Luo Sect to impersonate her.

After a while, Xie Zixing, panting heavily, got up from the ground.

Her hair was soaked with sweat, and her clothes had all fallen to the ground during the struggle. The body of a 15-year-old girl was already quite a sight to behold.

However, neither Xie Zixing nor Yang Ning cared about that; they were more concerned with the information they obtained after fusing with the purple blood of the Purple Heart Stone.

That's right, the purple hue in the center of the Purple Heart Stone is a drop of blood!

Purple Dragon's Blood!

Purple Dragon and Purple Gold Dragon are close relatives, so the purple blood that only reacts to Purple Dragon can also be absorbed by Xie Zixing, who is using the Purple Gold Coiling Dragon Body.

Yang Ning guessed that the orthodox Jiang Yun Nation people should have a Divine Ability related to the Purple Dragon, which could be used to unlock the secrets of the Purple Heart Stone, and that the fusion of that Divine Ability should not be so painful.

However, Jiang Yunxi definitely doesn't know this Divine Ability. She was only 3 years old when Jiang Yun Nation was destroyed, so she certainly didn't inherit it.

"So the secret really is in the Purple Heart Stone?" Xie Zixing felt a surge of joy upon receiving the information from the purple blood, but then her expression turned bitter.

The good news is that this is indeed a Supreme Dao Arts.

[Great Supreme Art]

Purple is the color of supreme nobility, and this Daoist art is a Supreme Divine Ability prepared specifically for the supreme. It enhances cultivation by absorbing fortune, the faith of the masses, and incense offerings through the establishment of power.

The reason why Jiang Yun Nation was able to rise so quickly was because Emperor Jiang Yun used the [Great Supreme Art] to connect the fortune of Jiang Yun Nation with the civil and military officials. With the boost of the Dynasty Fortune, the cultivation speed of the civil and military officials increased exponentially, and naturally, they rose to power in a very short time.

This is why Emperor Jiang Yun, despite being such a powerful individual, insisted on creating a nation; it's because that's what the [Great Supreme Art] requires.

No matter whether it's a sect, Lineage, or Aristocratic Clan, the faith and fortune they can gain from the masses are far less than that of a nation.

This also explains why, even after Jiang Yun Nation was destroyed, the Taiheng Sect and the Tianyi Sect didn't even know what this Divine Ability was called.

Because the entire operation is controlled by Emperor Jiang Yun, as long as he doesn't say anything, the civil and military officials can enjoy the cultivation speed bonus, but they don't know where this bonus comes from.

"I thought it was a space-related Dao technique, but I didn't expect that this space-related material was just an outer shell. However, spatial abilities are cultivated on their own once you reach the Spiritual Law Realm. This is definitely not a Supreme Dao Arts!"

"As for the Great Supreme Art, it seems to be a divine Divine Ability that governs dynasties. Coincidentally, I'm preparing to establish a nation, and maybe it can even be upgraded to a Celestial Dynasty in the future. However, this Divine Ability is very difficult to obtain in its entirety!"

The Purple Heart Stone was formed from the Essence Blood of a Purple Dragon who had cultivated the [Great Supreme Art] after its death. It contains the entire inheritance of the [Great Supreme Art], but the Purple Dragon did not leave it to humans, but to other Purple Dragon.

To cultivate this Divine Ability, one must absorb the supreme blood left behind by the Purple Dragon. The more supreme blood one absorbs, the more complete the inheritance one will receive.

If the person who absorbed the Supreme Blood dies, or if the Purple Heart Stone is destroyed, the Supreme Blood will return to the mining area and be reborn as the Purple Heart Stone.

That's why cultivators have been mining this mine for so many years, yet they still haven't finished it.

This process of absorbing the blood of the supreme being is also a process in which the young Purple Dragon rapidly improves its cultivation and tempers its bloodline, which is originally a good thing.

But humans are not dragons, and their bloodlines clash, so for humans to absorb the blood of dragons is not only extremely painful, but also carries the risk of death.

This risk of rejection is difficult to handle, and even practicing Divine Ability related to Purple Dragon can only suppress it slightly.

Even Emperor Jiang Yun couldn't solve this problem back then, so his cultivation of the [Great Supreme Art] was incomplete.

Yang Ning possesses the Great Dragon Physiognomy, but that is merely Divine Ability; it doesn't completely transform him into a dragon. Absorbing dragon blood still carries risks.

The only Divine Ability he can use to suppress dragon blood is the <Purple Gold Coiling Dragon Body>, which is a close relative of the Purple Dragon. Its effect is not as good as that of Emperor Jiang Yun back then. Therefore, if he uses the <Purple Gold Coiling Dragon Body> to suppress the rejection, the completeness of the inheritance he obtains may not be as good as that of Emperor Jiang Yun back then.

This is the first piece of bad news.

The second piece of bad news is that the [Great Supreme Art] is extremely domineering. Since it is a supreme being, there can only be one in the world. This was also the case during the Dragon Clan era. Only when a supreme Purple Dragon dies can another supreme Purple Dragon succeed to the throne.

This Divine Ability is bound to the blood of the Supreme Being. Since Xie Zixing has already absorbed a portion of the blood of the Supreme Being, this Divine Ability is destined to belong to Xie Zixing.

Although Xie Zixing is Yang Ning on a soul level, the Supreme Blood only recognizes bloodline, not people.

If that's all there is to it, then let's destroy Xie Zixing and let Yang Ning absorb the Supreme Blood himself.

However, the second practitioner of the [Great Supreme Art], Emperor Jiang Yun, was also very powerful. He could not reverse this characteristic, but he added restrictions to it.

Only those who are not descendants of Jiang Yun can absorb the blood of the Supreme!

He never imagined that his descendants might be wiped out, and his Supreme Dao Arts might be lost!

However, this also aligns with the mindset of an emperor: I would rather my things be lost than pass them on to outsiders!

Unfortunately, he never imagined that cloning technology existed in this world, allowing people to obtain his bloodline without getting married and having children!

From a genetic perspective, Xie Zixing is still a descendant of Emperor Jiang Yun, so it can be considered that the benefits should not go to outsiders.

But Yang Ning hoped that the power would belong to him.

I possess Divine Ability; I can control an empire remotely.

However, if the Divine Ability resides in the clone, then one has to constantly monitor the clone, or create more clones, which is far too troublesome.

"Perfect, I'm not exactly a law-abiding person either. Do you think I'll follow the rules just because you've made them?"

A flat-chested loli once said: Rules are meant to be broken!

Perfect, I also have an exceptional ability to break the rules!

Lawful Nightmare Power, erode me!
