Chapter 616 - Beginning Qi of Earth

Shen Lian's words spoke clearly of Zujia's demonic obstacle. It stirred up his heart, like the soaring mountain and tsunami.

Zujia's expression did not change, "How did you know?"

"Last time Guan Longzi too managed to scheme Yunyang's Lamp of Yin and Yang. Given my success in the Dao of Yi is higher than him, how is it surprising that I know of such thing? I suppose you've prepared this vessel for me. Without the destruction of the Primordial Spirit, this vessel can pull on the Beginning Qi of Earth and replay the incident at Mount Five Finger. Unfortunately, I am not the monkey, and you're not Buddha1." Shen Lian stood with his hands clasped behind his back. Like the boundless sky, no one could tell of his depth.

Zujia said, "The reason why I prepared this treasure is just to protect Yinshang, and it's not specifically aiming at anyone. It seems like you, my fellow Daoist brother from Qing Xuan, has a more mysterious origin than I expected, as you know of so many secret techniques. Today, I'm not here to give you a hard time. I just want to request you, my fellow Daoist brother, to have several hundred years of serenity and stop making troubles."

All of a sudden the world came crumbling down. Shen Lian was already then under a gigantic vessel.

The image of the Queen Mother Wu Vessel was indeed just an illusion of the vessel as the entire space was a part of the Queen Mother Wu Vessel.

On top of the Queen Mother Wu Vessel, Zujia's body was lit with blue cauldron fire. It was an unusual celestial art extracted from True Samadhi Fire by an ancient true celestial. It could exhibit the essence of the body in the form of blue cauldron fire which allowed the treasure item to exert its highest potential.

Innumerable divine lights were released from Queen Mother Wu Vessel, revealing a frightening aura like that of a deep sea. Space was frozen within seconds. It was impregnable.

As Shen Lian was already under the vessel, if he was a Dixian, by then he probably would not be able to have any thoughts.

The exception was that his mind was clearer than any other time. The reason why he came and asked about the weight of the Queen Mother Wu Vessel was for its Beginning Qi of Earth. If he obtained it, it would improve his seeds of the heaven and earth further and save him up to a thousand years of hard work.

Shen Lian always had a thought that time waited for no one. Wen Zhong, Lady Mother of the Chariot and even Golden Celestial, who were all famous individuals from myths, appeared in front of him. They were all students of Order of Jie, which was closely related to the Mastery of Senses he was practicing. If one were to say it was not coincidental, Shen Lian would not believe it even a little bit.

He could only be prepared for whatever sudden changes that could happen in the future by enhancing his power with the greatest speed possible. Even if he had to pay a hefty price for a higher level, he still had to sustain it. No one knew better than Shen Lian about priorities. Furthermore, even the fact that Zujia had come to seek for Chen Jing at Xiliang since many years ago and had taught her to read and write, was too, part of a plan since early days.

This time round Shen Lian wanted to bring in chaos to Zhaoge with his most overbearing form. He wanted to announce to everyone that any conspiracy in the face of ultimate power would appear to be pale and pitiful.

Because of Chen Jing, Shen Lian would not harm Zujia severely but he would take in all the Beginning Qi of Earth of the Queen Mother Wu Vessel to teach him a lesson.

At that moment, the divine light of the Queen Mother Wu Vessel kept strengthening the barrier of the space to prevent Shen Lian from making use of the abstruseness of Free Form Incarnation to escape from the space.

At the same time, Shen Lian felt enormous pressure which was trying to crush him. He could not have any unnecessary actions.

Shen Lian smiled drily. He suddenly gave an upward punch and that moment everyone in Zhaoge could hear the buzzing sound of metal. What made Zujia most surprised was that the acc.u.mulation of essence of Beginning Qi of Earth for many years on the Queen Mother Wu Vessel was pouring out at Shen Lian. Zujia's blue cauldron fire became the catalyst and it was too late for him to stop it.

At the same time, Zujia did not understand the ability Shen Lian possessed as he dared to swallow in so much of Beginning Qi of Earth.

The red cinnabar in between Shen Lian's brows was letting out an infinite red light, When the Beginning Qi of Earth encountered the red light, it began to combine. The Beginning Qi of Earth was black, it looked just like a black dragon which was traveling in the void, was being swirled into a vast sea of blood.

Its nasty character was revealed as it attempted to turn the river and sea over and made terrible things happen. However, the red light was extremely sticky. It forced the black dragon to swim towards the red cinnabar mark of Shen Lian.

The abstract seeds of the heaven and earth kept on taking in the black dragon from the outside world, the Beginning Qi of Earth. It was not afraid of indigestion at all. The initially illusory seeds of the heaven and earth started to take form.

Shen Lian oddly felt like he was full. It was a feeling passed on by the seeds of heaven and earth. He forcibly removed the feeling as there was about seventy percent of Beginning Qi of Earth left. If he broke out of the vessel now, he would pay the price, and it would be hard to overcome the killing formation set up by the Lady Mother of Chariot.

The Beginning Qi of Earth still gushed in the point in between his brows. After he absorbed about fifty percent, the seeds of the heaven and earth could no longer take in the Beginning Qi of Earth. Shen Lian knew it had reached its limit. The Qi of vitality was gathering at the acupoints and his body was empty like Taixu, which continued to accept the Beginning Qi of Earth. His pale face begun to turn black.

The clear celestial body he reconstructed as he exceeded the state of Taiyi had become polluted by the Beginning Qi of Earth.

At that moment Shen Lian thought about his investigation of the Xia Clan's bloodline and the odd formula he saw at the tunnel of Black Water Residence underneath the eye of the sea.

The Qi of vitality hidden in various acupoints appeared again as they combined with the Beginning Qi of Earth, as if they were restoring the birth of the heaven and earth where the clear Qi and the dirty Qi were not fully separated.

To this step, if there was any mistake, it would bring immeasurable consequences. It could even destroy Shen Lian's hard-fought celestial body. Eventually, he could only rely on the bit of real soul left in the Village of Nothingness to give rise to another 'Shen Lian'. It would take a long time.

At that moment, Shen Lian focused on his defense. He forcibly activated the messy Qi in his body, and he punched once again. The exceptionally heavy Queen Mother Wu Vessel shattered into pieces with that punch.

In the midst of dust, Shen Lian stood quietly. At that moment, an even larger and frightening pressure finally descended. It was the first time Shen Lian was shocked because the killing formation set up by Lady Mother of the Chariot relied on the power of the Register of Life and Death. It was something he did not at all expect.

In the depth of the Netherworld, the Register of Life and Death jolted. All living beings of the Netherworld felt a discomfort.

The strong power of the Register of Life and Death exploded and covered Shen Lian. Furthermore, countless people took note of the original form of the Register of Life and Death in the sky, which had mastered the fate of the Netherworld in the dark all these whiles.

Several strings were extending from it. Almost everyone in the Netherworld had a string from the Register of Life and Death and these strings would be exposed to everyone.

When people looked at the Register of Life and Death, they would know clearly of when they were born and when they were going to die.

Even though death was something most living beings had to experience, however, if one knew when one would die, it would be something extremely cruel and depressing. 可惜我非是那只猴子,你更非佛陀 - This sentence is referring to Journey to the West where the Monkey was under the control of Buddha.
