A Balance of Attraction

Within Zhang Xuezhou's Zodiac Palaces, the World Origin, transformed into a ghostly light, struggled repeatedly like a trapped beast, constantly trying to break free from Zhang Xuezhou's body, only to be firmly bound by the Zodiac Palaces Technique.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't have a strong desire for the origin of the world, nor was he the type to pester others relentlessly. However, Zhang Xuezhou was also afraid that the origin of the world would return to Hu Yu's body once again.

This caused him to repeatedly circulate the Grain Avoidance Instruction to forcibly refine the essence.

This kind of refining was not a pleasant experience. The indelible origin of the world repeatedly clashed with his body, causing cracks to appear on his body from time to time. His body was torn apart from time to time, accompanied by a feeling as if it was about to fall apart.

Hongjun's Zodiac Three Palaces Technique was indeed very profound. Zhang Xuezhou's body was torn apart, but the Zodiac Three Palaces stabilized the world's origin very steadily, preventing the world's origin from separating.

"This has truly become a forced marriage!"

Zhang Xuezhou has never been a master in harmony with the origin of the world, so it's quite normal that the origin of the world is not suitable for him.

What is sweet to Tiger Feather is poison to him.

Even his body rejects the five elements and is incompatible with the world's fundamental elements of wind, fire, water, and earth, making such a task truly thankless and arduous.

However, Zhang Xuezhou is unlikely to fight Hu Yu again. If Hu Yu were to break free from the distortion using the world's origin, it would indeed be the end of the world.

He has exhausted all his methods and cannot repeat what he has done in the past, thus facing inevitable failure.

Just by considering the consequences, Zhang Xuezhou knew he had no choice but to persevere, whether he wanted to or not.

"Shuo, are you suppressing some kind of evil? Should we use acupuncture to stimulate your body to unleash even greater power?"

Upon hearing Yi Shuo's voice, Zhang Xuezhou nodded in agreement without hesitation.

The Grain Avoidance Instruction of the physical body in the Three Realms has been transformed into Divine Ability three times, enabling it to absorb Spiritual Qi and generate spiritual crystals. The Grain Avoidance Instruction in the real world is inferior to that of the Three Realms and cannot reach the same level.

When Yi Shuo applied acupuncture to his body, Zhang Xuezhou felt the power within him continuously increasing.

The person most familiar with Zhang Xuezhou's body is undoubtedly Yi Shuo. Even though Yi Shuo couldn't touch his physical body in reality before, as long as Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation is consistent, the condition of his body can be traced, rather than being unfamiliar and requiring step-by-step investigation.

Yi Shuo's acupuncture was fast and steady. She also implanted magical Law Power into Zhang Xuezhou's body using Medical School Realm Technique. It was like heavenly thunder striking earthly fire. Zhang Xuezhou felt his acupoints burning, and the power of the Grain Avoidance Instruction was becoming stronger and stronger.

The world's origin, which had been broken through to the left and right, was trapped within the three houses of the zodiac. Its unwilling struggle turned into surrender, and the power of the backlash weakened.

Like the gaping maw of a glutton, the Grain Avoidance Instruction continuously dissolves the primordial power that had been excessively depleted by the tiger feathers.

"Bang!"

As if squeezed and exploded, eerie light burst forth in all directions, and Zhang Xuezhou felt the 'infant' within his body stained with a layer of black light.

The "Grain Avoidance Instruction" that he had been repeatedly practicing had turned into the "Poison Avoidance Instruction," causing a series of gurgling sounds to emanate from his body.

For a moment, Zhang Xuezhou almost found himself transformed into Hidden Spring valley, his body changing size repeatedly.

"Shuo is having health problems!"

Yi Shuo's face turned pale.

She had previously thought that Zhang Xuezhou possessed a legendary secret place in this world and held an extremely high status, making him seem like he was living a life of luxury. Little did she know that the situation on Zhang Xuezhou's side was not as wonderful as she had imagined, and was even more dangerous.

Without needing to think too much, Yi Shuo knew perfectly well that Zhang Xuezhou must have been engaged in something high-risk, which was why he entered this secret place for recuperation without saying a word.

Zhang Xuezhou's body is constantly changing. Although the tightness of his muscles is similar, the difficulty of inserting needles is constantly increasing.

Yi Shuo could only muster all her energy and try her best to find an opportunity to administer acupuncture.

She was certain that Zhang Xuezhou's current cultivation level was normal, and he had even entered the True Self Realm. His problem was more a lack of physical strength than a depletion of internal power.

Especially since this secret place possesses a Spirit Vein, providing a continuous flow of Spiritual Qi, it's impossible for Zhang Xuezhou to become exhausted.

The rest of the situation is not hard to guess, especially since Yi Shuo had previously asked Zhang Xuezhou about it.

The number of silver needles she held in her hand decreased rapidly, and Zhang Xuezhou had hundreds of silver needles inserted into his acupoints.

"By applying needles to the acupoints of the Poison Avoidance Technique, I can stimulate and enhance its effectiveness!"

When Zhang Xuezhou reminded her, Yi Shuo quickly changed her needling technique.

"Change!"

"Untie!"

With a series of heavy exhalations and shouts, Zhang Xuezhou saw the eerie light begin to turn into white light, and the backlash on his body was ten times stronger than before.

A thirteen-zhang-tall golden body appeared in an instant, its enormous form triggering a thunderous roar.

The acupoints on an ordinary person's body are finer than silver needles, but at this moment, the acupoints in Zhang Xuezhou's body are only the size of a finger. The changes in the acupoints brought about by the Poison Avoidance Instruction are constantly emerging, and acupoints in his body are revealed under the surging of Law Power.

The constant changes also brought his 108,000 Poison Avoidance Instruction to their final stages.

This was the limit of his physical body. If he could not eliminate the origin of the world, Zhang Xuezhou could only disperse the Zodiac Three Palaces Technique and use the Cloud-Piercing Hand on himself to grasp this constantly transforming origin of the world.

"It's perfect!"

The moment Zhang Xuezhou perfected the 108,000 acupoints of the Poison Avoidance Instruction, he felt as if a thousand stars were shining in his eyes, and the stinging pain from the backlash in his body was instantly smoothed out.

The Law Power within his body began to circulate in a complete cycle, and the ghostly light and white radiance within him seemed to become the sun and moon, forming a balanced force.

As a golden ray emerged from within, Zhang Xuezhou felt a chill run down his spine, finally realizing the specific manifestation of the spacetime element.

"The derivative of the spacetime element is Void Gold!"

If flames can represent the element of fire, and strong winds can make people feel the presence of the element of wind, then the elements of earth and water are normal components of the world, while specific manifestations involving the elements of space and time are rare.

Zhang Xuezhou had thought about it a lot, but he didn't actually seek knowledge about Void Gold.

The world today has almost no understanding of Void Gold as a material, and people lack knowledge and understanding of its elemental form.

Zhang Xuezhou found it difficult to make a fuss about Void Gold, but he was well aware that Void Gold had extremely important uses and was a resource that top cultivators were pursuing, so it must have some merit.

He felt his body was in an extremely subtle state, and all the techniques he practiced were not suitable for the present moment. He, who was refining the origin of the world, was like an untapped treasure trove. As long as he found the right method, he could unleash incredible power.

This certainly requires long-term refinement and adaptation; it cannot be accomplished overnight.

Zhang Xuezhou wasn't sure if he had followed in Hu Yu's footsteps and thus accepted and adapted to the origins of the world, but the sensations within his body were subtle.

He did not possess the inexhaustible regenerative power of Tiger Feather, but Zhang Xuezhou felt that his physical body might have developed a special state, and he was very likely to adapt to the void environment like the body of a giant tree.

This ability sounds impressive, but Zhang Xuezhou found that he didn't really have any suitable occasions to use it. He might be able to extract the apocalyptic fragments from the giant tree trunk in the future, but it would be difficult to find other applications for it.

He wasn't disappointed, after all, he had only taken the first step.

For Zhang Xuezhou, he restrained the origin of the world, denying Hu Yu a chance to make a comeback, and that was enough.

Not to mention that he also gained some benefits. Although he didn't become a god or saint, Zhang Xuezhou was very satisfied with the present.

He kept adjusting his body until the time travel cycle arrived, at which point he stopped all physical activities.

He called out to Yi Shuo and guided the shuttle back to the Three Realms. Only then did Zhang Xuezhou realize that the shuttle had changed.
