Chapter 2637 - 1206: Female Cultivator
Chapter 2637: Chapter 1206: Female Cultivator
The “Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Purple Extreme Physique” manifested by the Second Primeval Spirit within the Ice-sealed Mausoleum, combined with the Primordial Yang Set, was so powerful it was equivalent to the rebirth of the Yuan Yang Ancestor at his very Peak.
In this most direct clash of Great Dao, this Dharma Aspect blossomed with terrifying heat. Han Xingzi, whose body had already been frozen stiff, suddenly felt a warm current surge through him, his bones warming as sensation returned.
But before he could feel joy for long, he discovered the skin of his body beginning to dry and crack—this signified that the temperature inside the Ice-sealed Mausoleum had soared to an extreme height.
Han Xingzi’s Nascent Soul was horrified. Although he had long known that this Sect Master Chen of the Five Elements Sect was the number one Divinity Transformation on the East Continent, the scene before his eyes still left him in disbelief.
One must know that the core of the entire Ice-sealed Mausoleum was their Ice Sixth Rank Great Array. On this foundation, a cultivator who cultivated the Three Yin Scripture could occupy the geographical advantage and erupt with one hundred and twenty percent of their power, while the rest could at most display eighty percent. As for a Great Dao like fire, it was naturally restrained by the Three Yin Destruction Array, and would have another twenty percent cut off.
Yet even under such conditions, the Great Sun Dharma Aspect that Chen Mobai evolved actually showed a tendency to burn this Ice-sealed Mausoleum to ash.
If this were outside the mausoleum, what kind of scene would that be!?
High in the sky, Chen Mobai had already pushed the power of the “Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Purple Extreme Physique” to its limits, and the reason he could suppress his opponent in terms of overall momentum was because he was not being weakened by the power of the Ice-sealed Mausoleum.
If he really could only erupt with sixty percent of his strength, he would definitely not be a match.
He had used the Pure Yang Great Dao to eternally stabilize his “Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Purple Extreme Physique.”
Only, just as he could use the Pure Yang Great Dao to dissolve the Pure Yin Great Dao, the existence in the coffin could likewise use the Pure Yin Great Dao to turn around and counter him.
In their probing exchanges, the two powers of the Great Dao—Pure Yang and Pure Yin—were constantly tugging and grinding each other down. It would all come down to who could not endure first and had their eternally-stabilized Realm broken.
At that time, they would be left at the mercy of the opponent’s slaughter.
However, after Chen Mobai used the Guidance Book to calculate, he discovered that it was very likely his own Pure Yang Great Dao Power that would be exhausted first.
After all, he had only been in Divinity Transformation for a few decades, his accumulation was not deep, and the Power of the Great Dao could only be painstakingly drawn from the Great Tao by personally driving his Dao Fruit or Entrusting the Primordial Spirit, then slowly Refining it.
Fortunately, when Chen Mobai achieved Nascent Soul Formation his foundation had been deep, condensing one hundred and eight strands of True Qi. His speed at cultivating and Refining the Great Dao was several times faster than those fast-track cultivators of the Tianhe Realm.
Moreover, as the most practical of the Great Daos, aside from having his True Body cultivate the Saintly Virtue Great Dao in daily life, he had his Second Primeval Spirit Entrusting the Primordial Spirit and focused the majority of his efforts on the Pure Yang Great Dao. His accumulation could be considered not bad.
Yet these advantages, when facing an old monster with several thousand years of foundation, would undoubtedly be a drop in the bucket.
Thus Chen Mobai understood that if he wanted to end this Magic Duel, he could only opt for a swift battle and decisive victory.
But before that, he still wanted to see whether the matter could be resolved with words: “This time I entered by accident and disturbed Fellow Daoist; for that I truly apologize. However, a Female Cultivator who followed me in has mysteriously disappeared. I used my Divine Sense Searching Heaven and Earth throughout the Ice-sealed Mausoleum and only your place is impervious to my probing. I do not know if she is with Fellow Daoist?”
In response, the mysterious existence within the coffin let out a cold laugh. “Then just take it that I acted and abducted her. What do you intend to do?”
Hearing this, Chen Mobai knew that between the two of them there could only be a great battle to the end, victory by strength alone.
As the Guidance Book circulated, he had already formulated his combat plan.
He shifted his Dharma Aspect to look toward the Blue Moon hanging in midair.
He had already seen that it was the Taiyin Treasure Pearl that Han Xingzi had held.
But under the control of the existence in the coffin, it had already shed its mundane shell, revealing the true face of a Dao Fruit, freezing the Void.
In addition, that ice-blue gem at the apex of the palace was clearly also a Dao Fruit; he just did not know whether it was Mysterious Yin or Shaoyin.
While resisting the Pure Yin Great Dao power erupting from his opponent, Chen Mobai fused the “Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Purple Extreme Physique” with the Primordial Yang Sword and began a true engagement with the mysterious existence in the coffin.
A single purple ray blossomed from the edge of the Great Sun, carrying the force of One Sword Breaks All Laws as it cleaved down toward the palace atop Snow Cloud Peak.
The ice-blue gem instantly radiated the power of the Ice Snow Great Dao, transforming into a field of crystalline, translucent six-sided snowflakes. They seemed thin and fragile yet were tenacious, forming a shield that blocked the purple ray.
But the Sword Sha empowered by the Primordial Yang Sword was not something ordinary Defense methods could withstand.
Accompanied by the sound of shattering, the crystalline snowflakes were like ice sheets trodden underfoot, cracking apart. In merely a single breath, they collapsed and melted away.
Yet in the instant the snowflakes shattered, they once again gathered the boundless Ice Spiritual Qi of the Ice-sealed Mausoleum, transforming into even more crystalline snowflakes that descended like falling snow, layer upon layer covering the unstoppable purple Sword Sha rays.
Very soon, Chen Mobai felt that the Sword Sha he had unleashed no longer had any response.
It was as if it had been completely frozen, all Sword Intent and Spiritual nature annihilated.
Faced with such Defense from his opponent, Chen Mobai’s expression did not change.
This sword strike had only been a probe!
Having it blocked was within expectations.
But what if there were tens of thousands of such swords?
With that thought, the Primordial Yang Sword flew out from within the Great Sun, circled once around the “Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Purple Extreme Physique,” and then all the purple rays at the edge of the Dharma Aspect erupted at once, transforming in midair into a densely packed sea of purple swords that swept down toward Snow Cloud Peak like a sky-covering deluge.
Faced with this move, the existence in the coffin could no longer keep lying down!
With a boom, the coffin lid opened.
A Female Cultivator clad head to toe in Cold Ice Jade Armor, her skin pale as snow and her features cold as frost, floated into Chen Mobai’s line of sight.
Chen Mobai sensed no vitality from her body—yet neither did he sense Death Qi.
This female cultivator seemed to exist in a mysterious state of neither life nor death; he had no idea which Great Dao’s power it was.
But at the very least, Chen Mobai’s Pure Yang Scroll showed no particularly active reaction.
That meant the opponent was not in a corpse-disintegration state.
What was going on?
Chen Mobai was puzzled. In his view, for someone to survive for thousands of years, Jade Shatter True Monarch must have cultivated the Demon Corpse Disintegration Technique. In that case, as long as he could force out her true body, he could use the power of the Pure Yang Scroll to drive the Primordial Yang Sword and kill her in one strike.
But the scene before him meant his battle plan would not work.
In an instant, Chen Mobai switched to his backup plan.
The female cultivator clad in Cold Ice Jade Armor pushed out a palm, and the gem at the top of the palace immediately fell into her palm, instantly turning into a terrifying torrent of ice and snow, which she then blew out with a palm toward the purple sword sea falling from the sky.
Amid a series of creaking sounds, streak after streak of purple radiance was frozen mid-swing, congealing in the air above the palace like purple ice sculptures.
But at this moment, Chen Mobai had already slashed out his true killing sword.
The Sixth Rank Primordial Yang Sword, after drawing on the power of the Second Primeval Spirit and the Primordial Yang Set, turned into a brilliant golden thread, like a beam of dawn that split heaven and earth. In a flash it cleaved through all the frigid currents and chopped down into the female cultivator’s skull.
With a bang!
The only part of the female cultivator not covered by Cold Ice Jade Armor—her head—was immediately pierced by the Primordial Yang Sword. Yet even this Sixth Rank sword, its blade wedged in, was stuck fast by the hardness of her skull and could go no further.
And from the wound, not a single drop of fresh blood flowed.
Boom!
At this moment, through the Primordial Yang Sword, Chen Mobai sensed a bone-chilling Ice Snow Great Dao power erupting from within the female cultivator’s body, trying to freeze and seal his Saintly Virtue Great Dao.
Although the Saintly Virtue Great Dao was an Innate Great Dao, it was not like those Great Daos of Destruction or Killing Destiny; its killing power was lacking.
But for self-preservation and protection, it was more than sufficient.
The Great Tao power of cold ice within the female cultivator’s body simply could not freeze the Primordial Yang Sword, which was blessed by the Saintly Virtue Great Dao. She seemed to feel no pain, her expression unchanged as she reached up to grasp the blade lodged in her skull and forcibly pulled it out.
Then, under Chen Mobai’s astonished gaze, the sword mark on her skull began to slowly heal.
The only reason it was slow was that within the Primordial Yang Sword he had also infused the power of the Pure Yang Great Dao.
Yet even after being worn away by the Pure Yin Great Dao, her wounds still fully recovered.
“I think I more or less understand. You used the Ice Snow or Pure Yin Great Dao to seal yourself into this state, freezing life and death…”
Chen Mobai’s words made the female cultivator’s expression change for the first time.
“Today, you must die here!”
As she spoke, the Blue Moon in the sky descended and imprinted itself upon her pale brow.
At the instant the Taiyin Dao Fruit entered her body, her aura began to rise without end. Though she had yet to break through to Cultivating Void, she had already far surpassed Deity Transformation Peak.
If Chen Mobai had to compare her to an opponent he’d faced, it would be roughly equivalent to an old flood dragon standing over the Mysterious Sea with the Sea Suppressing Bead atop its head.
An opponent of this level indeed warranted Heavenly Blessing’s warning.
Since that was the case, Chen Mobai decided to go all out!
At his mental command, the Primordial Yang Sword had already flown back into the “Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Purple Extreme Physique,” then once more turned into the form of the Second Primeval Spirit, floating in midair.
Seeing Chen Mobai’s movements, the female cultivator’s expression also turned solemn. She decided to meet change with constancy, relying on the geographic advantage of the Ice-sealed Mausoleum and the ceaseless Great Tao power from the Sixth Rank Great Array to suppress and grind her opponent to death.
But at that moment, Chen Mobai’s entire body burst into silver light. Holding the Primordial Yang Sword, he stepped forward into the Void in front of him.
Then, under the female cultivator’s shocked gaze, Chen Mobai’s figure vanished directly into the distance.
She used Divine Consciousness Searching Heaven and Earth, sweeping through every corner of the Ice-sealed Mausoleum, yet found no trace of Chen Mobai.
Only then did she recall that at the instant she drew the Taiyin Treasure Pearl into her body, the power that froze the Void had also dissipated.
Was this man from Taixu MiaoMiao Palace?
He’d escaped by slipping through the Void!
Realizing this, the female cultivator’s face turned cold. She immediately opened the Ice-sealed Mausoleum and stepped into the long-lost Tianhe Realm.
Outside the Ice-sealed Mausoleum, when Chen Mobai saw the female cultivator appear, his expression showed a hint of surprise.
“I said it already—today, you must die!”
Hearing the female cultivator’s icy words, Chen Mobai instead smiled faintly.
Then another Chen Mobai appeared above the female cultivator’s head, wielding a great bell and smashing it down.
