Dao Origin Erosion
Chen Lingxi flew swiftly, the azure clouds beneath her feet, interspersed with pale golden lightning, were like a real thunderbolt, tearing through layers of mist and getting closer and closer to the high heavens.
The surrounding wind howled like knives, cutting into his black robes and making a rustling sound.
The higher they flew, the fiercer the wind became, as if countless invisible blades were dancing wildly in the air. Ordinary Qi Circulation Realm cultivators would be cut to pieces just by standing there.
But Chen Lingxi was completely unaware.
The Dragon-Stripping Dao Platform within his body was still slowly rotating.
The spiritual energy depleted from the recent battle with Bai Lingze is rapidly recovering.
"We must get to Storm Immortal Pivot as soon as possible."
Chen Lingxi looked solemn.
The hundred-foot-tall golden face of Emperor Daye, suspended in the Void, blocked Bai Lingze for him.
Such techniques are incredibly energy-consuming. Even during such a fierce battle, Emperor Daye had to spare some of his attention to protect him, so there was no guarantee that the Divine Ability wouldn't dissipate.
It needs to be done as soon as possible.
After flying for about half an hour, the wind gradually subsided, and the sea of clouds gradually thinned out.
Chen Lingxi looked up. The distant horizon still seemed endless. After flying for several more hours, she would reach her destination.
"Once you step into the Storm Immortal Pivot, you no longer need to be so cautious."
Chen Lingxi thought to himself, and was about to continue forward, but suddenly stopped.
Beyond the storm, the churning clouds were suddenly torn apart by an invisible force, revealing a clear, blue sky.
A bright sun rises blazing in the clear blue sky.
The sun was so intense and dazzling, and it also emanated a surge of spiritual energy, that Chen Lingxi a deep breath.
"Is it a Spirit Artifact?"
He muttered to himself, his eyes serious.
At that very moment, a powerful aura swept across the sun.
Chen Lingxi's pupils suddenly contracted.
Zhao Duanxuan!
Quexing Xi Family.
Immortal Ranking, an incarnation of the Dao Foundation Middle Stage.
A terrifying existence who could withstand a direct confrontation with Emperor Daye Ying Xian of the Daye Dynasty and remain undefeated.
The great sun slowly rotated, and at its core, a faint phantom could be seen sitting cross-legged.
The illusory figure was blurry, shrouded in the blazing light of the sun, making it difficult to see clearly; only a vague outline could be discerned. Yet, the oppressive aura emanating from this blurry figure caused Chen Lingxi to catch her breath.
"It's not the real body, but merely a fragment of Spirit Artifact," Chen Lingxi murmured to himself.
Even if it is a shard of Divine Ability, the terrifying pressure contained within it is far beyond that of an ordinary Dao Foundation Early Stage cultivator.
Zhao Duanxuan probably sensed that Emperor Daye was diverting his attention to protect him during the Emperor Daye battle, so he also diverted this Spirit Artifact's spirit to kill him.
The Emperor Daye protected him, which only made Zhao Duanxuan more determined to kill him!
Chen Lingxi activated the Dao Platform, and spiritual energy suddenly surged forth, flowing in like Long River.
"The depth of knowledge and cultivation in these so-called advanced practices is truly unimaginable."
Great Divine Ability, Secret Method, and rare Spirit Artifact artifacts appeared one after another.
Chen Lingxi felt a sense of apprehension.
At the same time, the illusory image of the great sun suddenly shone with a radiance. Within the radiance, Zhao Duanxuan's Spirit Artifact, the Great Sun, transformed into a phantom image, carrying the radiance of the great sun and imbued with world-destroying power, and pressed down on him!
As the sun passed by, the sea of clouds evaporated, the heavenly winds dissipated, and even the Void was scorched with visible ripples.
Before the scorching pressure even reached her, Chen Lingxi felt her spiritual energy surge wildly as if it had been ignited, even slowing down the rotation of the Dragon-Stripping Dao Platform.
Chen Lingxi a deep breath, and lightning suddenly blazed brightly in her eyes.
He felt no fear whatsoever!
Within the Hongdong Bag, the Enemy-Slaying Spirit Jade shone with a mysterious brilliance, Cauldron Vessel terrifying power amplifying its presence!
The name and aura of Zhao Duanxuan were already engraved on the Enemy-Slaying Spirit Jade in the Hongdong Bag inside his body.
At that moment, with a thought, the ancient aura on the spirit wall burst forth, completely merging with his spiritual energy.
With the power of the Cauldron Vessel, Chen Lingxi felt his spiritual energy and physical body surge once again.
"You think you can kill me with just a clone!"
Instead of retreating, Chen Lingxi advanced, and in the blink of an eye, spiritual energy surged and condensed into a Spirit Artifact sword!
A sharp and incomparable sword intent soared into the sky, slicing a crack in the brilliant flames under the blazing sun.
He took a step forward, unleashing the full power of the Thunder-Hiding Sword Canon.
The Twelve Heavenly Drum Peals!
Twelve earth-shattering thunderous sounds suddenly exploded in the Void. The thunderous sounds overlapped and converged on the Sword Qi, transforming into a thunderous sword aura tens of feet long, which slashed down at the illusory image of the great sun that was suppressing them.
Boom!
The instant the sword energy collided with the sun, a terrifying sound wave, powerful enough to tear eardrums, spread wildly in all directions!
The surging sea of clouds was thrown back by the sound waves, and even the starlight in the sky above swayed.
After the collision, the illusory image of the great sun did not dissipate; it only paused slightly before pressing down on him again.
The blurry, illusory figure sitting cross-legged in the midst of the blazing sun didn't even open its eyes, as if shattering the sword light was insignificant to it.
Chen Lingxi snorted coldly, her Heaven-Inviting Might rising up, unleashing a terrifying aura.
And all around, numerous bolts of lightning appeared, as if they had transformed into a storm.
The illusory image of the great sun followed closely behind, crashing into the lightning surrounding Chen Lingxi.
The surging thunder collided with the dazzling flames of the illusory sun, sparking countless tiny rays of light.
Chen Lingxi stood in the very center of the storm, surrounded by lightning, like an immortal born from lightning.
He extended his finger, and the phantom of the Heaven-Inviting Great Sage Heaven within his Inner Divine Palace suddenly opened its eyes, the Great Sage Aura, along with surging essence, poured into his finger.
Palace-Knocking Finger!
Chen Lingxi's most prized Mystery Mechanism was unleashed, and the storm suddenly subsided.
The surging thunder seemed to be suppressed by some invisible force!
An indescribable surge of powerful energy burst forth from Chen Lingxi's fingertips, transforming into a golden finger beam as thick as a pillar.
Where the fingertip passed, a faint golden light emanated from the Void.
The finger beam collided with the illusory image of the great sun.
The blurry, motionless figure that had been sitting cross-legged finally opened its eyes.
The moment those eyes opened, the sun's radiance increased several times over!
However, this Palace-Knocking Finger, empowered by the immense power of the Cauldron Vessel, was equally sharp and domineering to the extreme.
The flames and the fingertips collided, remained locked in a stalemate, and gradually wore each other down.
After a few breaths of stalemate, the illusory image of the great sun finally could not withstand the impact of this terrifying power and exploded in the Void, turning into countless blazing white light fragments, like meteors falling from the sky, falling into the Unfinished Thunder of the storm, and disappearing without a trace once swept up by the thunder.
Chen Lingxi's spiritual energy was almost completely depleted!
Before he could even catch his breath, a figure stepped out from the scattering debris.
The figure was imposing, with sword-like eyebrows that reached his temples and eyes like stars.
He stood amidst the lingering shards of light, his surroundings emanating a profound and vast Dao Origin, like an unfathomable ocean.
It was Zhao Duanxuan.
This is not the real person.
It was that Spirit Artifact clone!
Although the sun shattered, the illusory figure did not dissipate. Instead, it emerged from the broken flames, becoming increasingly solid and clear.
"This clone is so solid."
Chen Lingxi was astonished.
Zhao Duanxuan's Spirit Artifact clone stood amidst the shards of light.
He probably hadn't expected that Chen Lingxi would have such ability to break through his illusory sun image.
Amidst the surprise, some became genuinely angry.
He raised his right hand and, expressionless, struck out with his palm at Chen Lingxi.
There were no Divine Ability, no magic, and no complicated runes.
Only one palm strike, a palm strike that is pure to the extreme and domineering to the extreme.
With this palm strike, the surging sea of clouds outside the storm was almost completely drained.
Chen Lingxi felt a pressure far more terrifying than the phantom of the great sun from before surge towards him, carrying a terrifying power capable of destroying the world.
It was as if dozens of vast mountains were pressing down on his body, and the spiritual energy within him was circulating more and more slowly.
Chen Lingxi looked up, snorted coldly, and simultaneously activated the Longevity Bridge Divine Ability and the Twelve Heavenly Drum Peals, crashing forward with a deafening roar!
Boom!
A terrifying, deafening explosion rang out.
Zhao Duanxuan's avatar shattered at that moment.
A terrifying power also swept over Chen Lingxi.
That power was too immense, too domineering!
Excruciating pain spread throughout my limbs and bones.
He lowered his head and saw that a strange Dao Origin was seeping into his body in wisps.
Wherever it passed, flesh and blood rotted, and spiritual energy dissipated.
"Dao Origin Erosion."
Chen Lingxi her teeth.
He could feel the Dao Origin Qi Sea spreading along his meridians towards his dantian.
If he doesn't expel this strange Dao Origin from his body in time, I'm afraid even his Dragon-Stripping Dao Platform will be corrupted by this power.
Chen Lingxi looked up at Zhao Duanxuan's avatar.
But Zhao Duanxuan's body had already dissipated, shattering into pieces, and with that indifferent air of looking down on the world, he vanished into the Void.
"We still fell for this kind of person's trick!"
Chen Lingxi her teeth, but dared not pause for even a moment.
Chen Lingxi dared not pause for even a moment.
He activated the Concealed Edge Method, concealing his aura, and used the remaining spiritual energy within his body to drag his almost shattered body away in another direction.
"We can't go to the Storm Immortal Pivot for now; let's go to the Lake Immortal Pivot to heal our injuries!"
The hurricane howled in my ears, and thunder roared around me.
Chen Lingxi flew for a very long time, passing through the surging storm and crossing the vast sea of clouds for tens of thousands of miles, until she could no longer sense any pursuing aura behind her before finally crashing into a sea.
He followed his memory and found the small island, the Lake Immortal Pivot.
The lake remained tranquil, its surface as clear as a mirror, reflecting the dazzling starlight and surging sea of clouds in the sky.
There has been no change here compared to when Total Perception Evolution.
The azure lake water still exudes a warm and gentle light, and the powerful life force deep within the lake still flows slowly.
It is so tranquil that it is like a secluded fairyland.
Chen Lingxi could no longer hold on and fell backward into the clear lake water.
The lake water, warm and smooth as jade, gently enveloped him.
He could feel the spiritual energy contained within the lake water flowing into his body on its own, like soft, emerald threads seeping into his wounds, his meridians, and his Qi Sea, which Dao Origin Erosion.
The azure spiritual energy touched the Dao Origin Dao Origin Zhao Duanxuan had left in his body, and began to gently peel away, dissolve, and smooth it out bit by bit.
Just as spring water melts away the remaining ice of winter, it happens naturally and without any hindrance.
Chen Lingxi let out a long breath.
"This Lake Immortal Pivot truly magical!"
