Chapter 226: What to do? Of course, to do...
"Huh? Is my regeneration not working properly?"
Before even touching the tiny lightning bolt, just by touching the edge of the tribulation cloud, Douma lost a piece of his index finger.
What surprised him even more was that the broken piece just wouldn't grow back.
Just then, Akaza arrived next to Taiichi. After witnessing this scene, he immediately took a step back and chose to distance himself from Taiichi.
Although he still crossed his arms and stood with a cool expression, the twitching corners of his eyes revealed that he was still very flustered inside.
While Doma was still wondering, Taiichi, who had his eyes closed, suddenly raised his finger, and immediately fine gold and pink lines, as thin as hair, intertwined and finally formed a gray ball of air the size of a soybean.
With a flick of his finger, the gray cloud of gas landed precisely on the broken section of Tongma's finger.
"Wow, it's grown again! Taiichi, you're amazing!"
With a flicker of his eyes, Doma clasped his hands together on one cheek, making a gesture like a lovesick woman, but Taichi simply raised his palm to stop him.
"Stay away from me for now."
After saying this, Taiyi pulled his consciousness back into his body.
The treatment I just gave to Tongmo was very simple; I simply infused him with a stream of innate energy.
The innate energy, which had no inherent attributes, became his own unique energy after being imbued with Douma's aura.
As for the lost portion, it was obliterated by the tribulation clouds into attribute-less innate primordial energy, which then dissipated into the world.
Taiichi was able to understand all this because of his conversation with Sakura Dragon earlier.
"Manipulating creation and rotating yin and yang, this is the power of creation, and also the power that belongs unique to heaven and earth."
By using the spirit of the Sakura Dragon and combining it with his own Yang energy, Taiichi healed Doma and also gained a deeper understanding of vital energy and creation.
But he still didn't quite understand why a calamity cloud had appeared above his head.
Logically speaking, the one closest to ascension right now is definitely Sakura Dragon.
She's fine, so why is this happening to me?
"Have you ever heard the saying, 'As long as saints live, great thieves will never cease'?" Yinglong sneered, then stared at Taiyi with a sinister look.
However, the other party remained calm and even made a gesture of invitation.
Good heavens, Taiyi's thirst for knowledge and his devotion to cultivation immediately stunned Yinglong.
"What a fine heart that seeks the Dao. Very well, these things are not secrets. When your primordial spirit gradually becomes perfect, you will come to understand these principles through your own experience."
Sakura Dragon shook his head, as if he had figured something out. He snorted coldly in his heart and continued:
"Manipulating nature, moving mountains and filling seas, shifting stars and changing constellations, summoning wind and rain..."
"These so-called great supernatural powers should belong exclusively to the power of heaven and earth. Why do you think cultivators would possess them?"
"That is because cultivators steal the power of heaven and earth through cultivation, which gives them these supernatural abilities."
“When cultivating the primordial spirit, although it also absorbs the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, it does not use much overall. Moreover, when ascending, it is necessary to condense and eliminate impurities, so naturally a lot of energy will dissipate back into heaven and earth.”
"Furthermore, the main component of the primordial spirit is the cultivator's own soul, which is the power of will. Spiritual energy is merely the driving force that propels the soul from the illusory to the real."
Do you know why the tribulation clouds have come after you?
Sakura Dragon paused, his eyes filled with mockery:
"Because you are too greedy."
Is that so? Hehe, that's interesting.
Taiyi cupped his hands in greeting, indicating that he had learned something, but Yinglong did not see the look of confusion or fear on his face.
I habitually took a deep breath, slowly opened my eyes, and the light that shone through seemed to pierce through all obstacles and hardships!
What Sakura Dragon said is probably all correct.
The cloud of calamity overhead, though small in size, contained boundless power of annihilation.
But at the same time, the moment the tribulation cloud appeared, Taiyi suddenly had an epiphany: if he could withstand the so-called heavenly tribulation, then this tribulation cloud would transform into a celebratory cloud.
"Amidst the chaotic dance of fish and dragons, white cranes and blue phoenixes soar together, celestial maidens scatter flowers, and ethereal music lingers..."
Recalling the ancient texts I had read, which contained descriptions of powerful immortals, Qingyun was naturally also mentioned.
Although it contains annihilation, it also contains boundless vitality!
Although he was a cultivator, to this world he was nothing more than a thief.
It doesn't matter if you eat five or six times your fill in this world, as long as you don't leave, the food you eat will eventually return to the world under the erosion of time.
In some ways, the relationship between cultivators and the world is like that between gamblers and the house at a gambling table, with the world being the house that can't afford to lose.
I'll let you win as much as you want up front, but you can't leave. If you dare to leave, I'll kill you.
After listening to Yinglong's explanation, Taiyi understood why the Calamity Clouds had appeared.
If he wanted to ascend to immortality, it would probably be a sure thing, but the problem was his physical body.
Even Yinglong was amazed that someone could actually cultivate a body that had reached the Great Perfection of Qianyang, which showed how much spiritual energy from heaven and earth had been absorbed to successfully cultivate the Taiyi body.
"It was clearly a sea of suffering, yet we forged our own ship."
"But in the end, they only let the helmsman leave, while leaving behind the ship I painstakingly built. How is that possible?"
After the sea of suffering, there is still another sea of suffering.
There is no end to the pursuit of immortality, nor is there a final destination to the pursuit of power.
Taiyi didn't know what it would be like after his primordial spirit ascended, but he was able to achieve what he had now entirely because of this physical body.
"If numerical monsters are always banned, then that proves that numerical values are the right choice!"
He had a premonition that the moment his primordial spirit reached its peak, the tribulation clouds above his head would immediately unleash their fury.
I don't know what form it will take, but it might become like the scenes described in cultivation novels—boundless and terrifying.
It's also possible that such a small clump could reduce itself to ashes.
It seemed like a certain death, but Taiyi still had one more move!
"In your home turf, you treat us like fish on a chopping board, but what if we were in a different place...?"
In the depths of his being, Taiyi had a premonition that his next realm, after the union of Yin and Yang, would be the realm of becoming a gourd.
Once you cultivate the world within the pot, you'll have a way to break free from this seemingly inevitable death.
However, he currently has no clue how to cultivate within this world within the pot.
Looking at the more than 50,000 attribute points in the system, Taiyi really wanted to use them all at once so that he could comprehend the secrets of the Formation Pot Realm as soon as possible.
A deadly sword hangs over your head; no one could bear that.
"I finally managed to break the seal between my physical body and my primordial spirit, but I never expected to face death at any moment."
"It seems that all of this has something to do with you."
As Taiichi spoke, he fixed his gaze on Sakura Dragon.
"Heh, so what? Consider this half of my primordial spirit a gift to you, a gift to feed the dogs!" At this point, Sakura Dragon gradually lost his temper.
She was furious that half of her primordial spirit, which she had painstakingly cultivated for thousands of years, had been stolen from her.
If she could, she would love for Taiyi to be struck dead by lightning right now!
With his arms crossed in front of his chest, he looked at Taiichi with a cold smile, his provocative expression seemingly mocking Taiichi's powerlessness.
"Who knows what will happen in the future? Right now, we should discuss how to deal with you!"
With a thought, the Immortal Blade Tears that was stuck in his body disappeared and appeared in the hand of his primordial spirit.
Furthermore, with the infusion of the power of creation, the Immortal Blade began to change its appearance, and actually turned into a whip!
Swish!
The space shifted instantly, and Sakura Dragon found herself pulled into a pitch-black space by Taiichi.
"Hmm? So it's acupoint space, he thought..."
Before she could figure out what the other person was thinking, she heard Taiyi's sinister voice:
“Sakura Dragon, refining the primordial spirit is necessary, but there are many ways to do it.”
With his palm outstretched, the whip that Bai Lei had transformed into immediately split into four, binding Yinglong's limbs. Then, with a pull in four directions, he instantly made her float in the air in a spread-eagle position.
"What, what are you going to do?!"
Suddenly, an overwhelming fear rose from the bottom of Yinglong's heart. As his throat bobbed, his eyes widened and his voice trembled as he asked.
"Naturally, it must be the union of Yin and Yang!"
What are you doing? I'm going to do you!
Hiss~
