Chapter 248: 160, The Origin of the Bloodline World, Mysterious, Lady Xiao Xiao (4K Chapters)
The Taibai Immortal Body possessed great killing prowess.
People with the Taibai Immortal Body can cultivate Taibai Divine Light within their bodies. This divine light can not only be used to kill enemies, break array techniques, and sever thoughts, but it can also sense the strength of their opponents.
When Xu Xing was transported to the Stalactite Cave, Ruan Baimei sensed Xu Xing’s powerful aura that he had failed to conceal in time. This aura was not weaker than his own and might even be superior to it.
However, Ruan Baimei didn’t have any intention to fight.
The immortal path is long. If one cannot tolerate even their sect mates, wouldn’t they have to challenge all the Prides of Heaven from other sects one by one?
"Since Senior Brother Ruan said so..."
"I, Xu, am also willing."
Xu Xing nodded and agreed.
It was clear that the three Top-grade fixed light talismans were hidden in these three different tunnel forks. Entering a fork earlier would allow one to seize the opportunity and get a Top-grade fixed light talisman.
Gong Yuzhen, who was standing next to them, pursed her lips but didn’t join the two of them. She could see that Ruan Baimei didn’t pay any attention to her at all.
It was true; her entering the Hangu Mountain Cave at the Eighth Layer of Immortal Foundation inherently carried the suspicion of an unfair advantage.
Although the sect did not impose a limit on the cultivation of True disciples entering Hangu Mountain, she still fell short compared to a Pride of Heaven like Ruan Baimei.
"The Rainbow bridge needs the Magic Power of at least twelve Late Immortal Foundation Stage practitioners to rise. I, Ruan, am not talented; I have cultivated the Chaos True Scripture. This scripture emphasizes breaking all techniques with one Qi, and the Magic Power cultivated is the most vigorous, capable of equaling the power of eight people."
"The power of the remaining four people will be provided by Junior Brother Xu."
Ruan Baimei spoke calmly, as if he were discussing a trivial matter.
Regarding this arrangement, he didn’t look down on Xu Xing. He had already explained that the Chaos True Scripture he cultivates emphasizes breaking all techniques with a single stream of Qi, and in terms of abundant Magic Power, it far surpassed others of the same cultivation realm.
In addition to Sword Cultivators, talisman cultivators, and array cultivators, there is also a cultivation route in the Cultivation World called Daoist Cultivators, or Qi cultivators.
About ninety percent of cultivators follow the Qi cultivation path, specializing in Magic Power. However, only a select few are recognized as true Qi cultivators.
The path of Qi cultivation, characterized by ’one Qi to break all techniques,’ was not inferior to that of Sword Cultivators who specialized in the dao of slaughter.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xing raised his eyebrows.
He didn’t say much.
Not everyone was as tactful as someone with his Human King physique. Ruan Baimei, who grew up in the Immortal Sect, was older than him, but apparently, he was not well-versed in social interactions.
If it were a narrow-minded and petty person, Ruan Baimei’s words would have offended them to death.
"As for Senior Sister Gong..."
"Please step back."
Ruan Baimei then looked at Gong Yuzhen. Although his words were polite, the coldness in his eyes was apparent to everyone.
He and Xu Xing were both among the best of the eighty-three True disciples, and they were eligible to obtain a Top-grade fixed light talisman.
As for Gong Yuzhen... He didn’t want her to take advantage of their bridge.
"You..."
Gong Yuzhen’s jade-like face, veiled by white gauze, flashed with a hint of shame and anger. She stomped her foot angrily and then walked away from the cliff edge without looking back.
Could it be that Ruan Baimei intends to go further? To compete for the Sect Leader Position?
While angry, this thought flashed through Gong Yuzhen’s mind. Ruan Baimei asking her to step back was undoubtedly domineering, yet it also made the contest for the last Top-grade fixed light talisman fair for the other True disciples.
Such a measure unavoidably carried the suspicion of him seeking fame and reputation.
Beside the array formation for the Rainbow Bridge, Ruan Baimei and Xu Xing each stood at a key position of the array.
"Rise!"
Ruan Baimei roared, and the Taibai Immortal Body within him burst out in full force. The dazzling white immortal light enveloped his whole body, making him seem like an Immortal Exiled to Mortal Realm from the Immortal Realm.
The supreme immortal light illuminated the mountain cave, as if the earth was trembling and the void was collapsing.
A colorful Rainbow bridge instantly emerged from the array formation, poised to reach the opposite shore.
"Junior Brother Xu, hurry!" Ruan Baimei urged.
After the reminder, he looked towards Xu Xing. He wanted to see what kind of technique Xu Xing possessed that could trigger a warning from his Taibai Divine Light.
He saw Xu Xing’s vital energy and blood surge.
A dazzling Golden Body illuminated his entire form. Although the Golden Body was only nine feet and nine inches tall, it was as bright as the Great Sun, and it seemed to exude a vast, desolate, and ancient aura.
It was godlike and terrifying.
"Not only a Human King Physique?"
"But also a peerless Immortal Body?" Gong Yuzhen was amazed.
Ruan Baimei remained silent, pondering.
With Xu Xing’s reinforcement, the Rainbow Bridge finally gained enough momentum to connect to the opposite shore.
Seeing this, the two exchanged a glance and then quickly darted into different tunnel forks.
However, just before they departed, each of them unleashed a stream of Magic Power to destroy the Rainbow Bridge.
"So, these are the Prides of Heaven of the Immortal Sect..."
In the cave, only Gong Yuzhen remained. She sighed while looking at the opposite side of the chasm.
During this trip to the White Bone Wilderness Palace, she could still keep pace with Xu Xing.
In a few decades, she would probably only be able to look up to him from afar, left far behind.
「In the left tunnel fork,」
Xu Xing, after experiencing a series of twists, turns, and trials, reached the end of the cavern.
A Golden Talisman appeared before his eyes. This talisman used golden paper as its base, and its runes were inscribed with an unknown silver ink. The ink seemed to shimmer with faint specks of starlight.
"Tadpole Script?"
Xu Xing examined the runes on the Golden Talisman; he was familiar with most of them.
The Dao of Arrays and the Dao of Talismans shared common ground.
Array patterns and talismanic inscriptions both drew upon the power of heaven and earth to manifest techniques.
However, at the four corners of the talisman and within a part of the central inscription, he discovered the Silver Tadpole Text he had encountered before.
