Chapter 320 - 302: Refining Rules into the Great Dao

Chapter 320: 302: Refining Rules into the Great Dao

Wukong had given Xuan Ming the fragments of the Great Dao Principles to refine, and by this moment, she had already generated eight hundred billion divine thoughts.

The wisp of Creation Qi slowly merged into their Primordial Spirit Thoughts. Wukong inhaled and felt as if he were floating on the verge of becoming an immortal, a vast power growing within him! Although it was only a small wisp of Creation Qi, it had already brought him immense benefits. Xuan Ming also felt the Creation Qi, but she could not absorb it; only her Primordial Spirit was nourished. Eventually, Wukong swallowed this wisp of Creation Qi and began to refine it.

Xuan Ming’s Primordial Spirit Thoughts continued to soar, nearly breaking the limit of nine hundred billion set by the Great Dao Sage. However, at that moment, it halted, just one thought short of the Great Perfection of nine hundred billion.

Wukong nodded and said, "Good, very good, exceedingly good! Just one thought away from reaching nine hundred billion, this thought of yours, the leader of those nine hundred billion thoughts, the king of thoughts! This final thought, you must not rush it, reflect deeply on the Dao, and then refine it."

Xuan Ming was destined to refine this last Primeval Spirit Thought into the King of Thoughts and lead the rest. When that time came, her mana would be orderly and meticulously controlled, and also in a wondrous realm of unity with heaven and earth, her combat power would increase exponentially.

"Huff!"

At that moment, Xuan Ming slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, which was originally her true form, transmuted from Pangu’s physical body. Now that her thoughts were pure and unified with heaven and earth, closely intertwined with her physical body, the pure thoughts cleansed her body, even refining out this turbid qi.

Pangu was merely at the peak realm of a Heavenly Dao Saint; he had failed in his attempt to achieve enlightenment through strength. If Xuan Ming was to break the shackles of the Heavenly Dao Saint, she needed to refine this wisp of turbid qi from Pangu’s physical body; otherwise, it would always be a malign tumor, hindering her path to enlightenment. Previously, this wisp of turbid qi had protected her body; as long as it was present, she could be reborn indefinitely, and it also forged her physical body to be incomparably strong.

"This wisp of turbid air can be used to craft a magical treasure, I’ll collect it for you and refine it later," said Wukong, as he took in the turbid qi.

Xuan Ming said, "To comprehend this final King of Primordial Spirit Thoughts, it might take many years to say the least. Fortunately, I am already at the peak within the realm of Heavenly Dao Saint, and I’m just a step away from the Great Dao Sage. Now having refined these Great Dao Principle fragments from Quan Zhilong, my realm has deepened even further, just one step away from completion."

Wukong said, "You continue your cultivation; I’ll protect you and will also take the opportunity to gather some more Power of Creation from the Creation Jade Butterfly."

With the Power of Creation, one could kill a Great Dao Sage, and absorbing the Power of Creation could tremendously increase one’s mana, making it incredibly formidable!

Wukong absorbed this wisp of the Power of Creation into his body and unexpectedly comprehended a marvelous Dao Technique named Grand Creation Technique, which utilized the Power of Creation for deployment and was extremely powerful. However, this technique consumed an enormous amount of Creation Power and could only be executed within the Creation World, as other places did not have ample Creation Power available.

"Grand Creation Technique, Creation of Heaven and Earth, at my command! This is a method of the Creation Supreme. Why can I comprehend it?" Wukong wondered silently.

According to Hong Jun, among the Creation Supreme, there was an Intelligent Stone Monkey, also born from heaven and earth, a person of great destiny. Could it be for this reason? He suddenly remembered the Creation Heavenly Mechanism Staff given to him by the Tong Tian Sect Master. This staff, named "Creation Heavenly Mechanism," likely wasn’t named by the sect master after contemplating creation but felt the words "Creation" powerful and domineering, carrying a profound concept.

"The Intelligent Stone Monkey can comprehend Creation. Could this Creation Heavenly Mechanism Staff, forged from the bones of a godly monkey lineage during Ancient Times, also absorb the Power of Creation?" Wukong held the Creation Heavenly Mechanism Staff in his hand, easily changing it to the size of a needle.

But the weight of this staff was ten billion eight thousand catties, beyond the lift of ordinary Primordial Golden Immortals.

"Grand Creation Technique, activate the Creation!" Wukong uttered softly, driving the Creation Jade Butterfly to break the prohibition completely and absorb the Power of Creation within.

"Buzz!"

The prohibition of the Creation Jade Butterfly opened slightly more, the Creation Heavenly Mechanism Staff directly plunging into it, creating a crack, and more of the Power of Creation flowed out, much stronger than the nearly invisible wisp seen before. Touching it, his entire being felt exceptionally soothing.

At that moment, the Creation Heavenly Mechanism Staff actually absorbed the Power of Creation, and within it, the Star Picking Divine Ape, Mountain-moving Divine Ape, Fiery Divine Ape, Howling Moon Divine Ape, Demon-Extinguishing Divine Ape, and other divine apes all roared wildly, seemingly receiving tremendous power. The lineage of divine apes indeed favored by Creation!

This Creation Heavenly Mechanism Staff, fused with the skeletal remains of these ancient divine apes, containing nine types of divine ape, was tremendously powerful. When deployed, it could manifest divine apes, catching enemies off-guard, a tactic Wukong found repeatedly successful.

"Excellent, supremely excellent! Truly, heaven aids me too. With this Creation Jade Butterfly in hand, I don’t fear Immortal Yang Mei anymore! Once I’ve absorbed enough Power of Creation, I will surely be able to match him. Then, upon entering the greater world of Creation, I can break through to the realm of Creation Supreme and stand at the pinnacle of the world, ensuring eternal stability for the Posa Greater World," Wukong declared.

Saints are unkind, treating the common people as mere tools.

People’s thoughts, perspectives, and goals all change as their power increases, but not Wukong; he is determined to protect the sentient beings of the Earth Immortal Realm who have survived. They are his old friends, his former battle comrades, the hope of his ancestors.

Some bonds are destined not to be severed.

Only by achieving the status of Creation Supreme, breaking the heavens and treading the earth, can he truly secure peace! No one knows if, one day, a Creation Supreme might whimsically enter this Chaotic World, and then, the survival of the Posa Greater World would be difficult to predict.

The Heavenly Mechanism Staff rapidly ascended to the level of a Great Dao Divine Artifact, surpassing the Pangu Axe effortlessly!

Great Dao Sages could not forge Great Dao Divine Artifacts. These artifacts, second only to Creation Divine Artifacts, were nurtured by the Great Dao Principles. Yet, Wukong used the Power of Creation from the Creation Jade Butterfly to elevate the grade of the Heavenly Mechanism Staff to that of a Great Dao Divine Artifact, a feat only possible for the Creation Supreme!

A Creation Divine Artifact could be forged by a Creation Supreme, but it required endless eons, drawing in vast amounts of the Power of Creation. If Wukong was not mistaken, this Creation Jade Butterfly was a Creation Divine Artifact nurtured into existence by Creation itself, though its specific effects were unknown at this time, and it could only absorb the Power of Creation temporarily.

"Who would have thought, this is actually a Creation Divine Artifact! Hong Jun Taoist Patriarch is truly blessed by fate to have found such a treasure. If Immortal Yang Mei had obtained the Creation Jade Butterfly, he probably would have already ascended to a terrifying existence, controlling the Great Dao, overturning Heaven and Earth, and entering the Creation Greater World," Wukong secretly speculated.

"Go! Power of Creation, stabilize earth, water, wind, and fire!"

Wukong flicked his finger, and a wisp of the Power of Creation drawn from the Creation Jade Butterfly soared into the infinite universe. The earth, water, wind, and fire suppressed by the Victorious Fighting Buddha gradually stabilized at this moment. Feeling much lighter, the Victorious Fighting Buddha descended from the boundless universe and merged with Wukong.

"Incredible, the Power of Creation is truly impressive, worthy of being the unique and supreme existence of all realms! A strand of the Power of Creation actually suppressed all of earth, water, wind, and fire, as obedient as if seeing the Emperor, orderly and disciplined. The Creation World truly deserves to be a realm above the Three Thousand Great Worlds!" Wukong marveled in amazement.

Of the Three Thousand Great Worlds, the Chaotic World is the largest and most barren. There are surely mighty experts in other worlds, reigning supreme over the Three Thousand Worlds, unique and unparalleled, with only the Creation World truly blessed, having the Power of Creation to suppress everything.

The Intelligent Stone Monkey, this unusual species capable of harboring Creation, is indeed marvelous. Wukong has now plunged into arduous cultivation, madly operating the Great Yin Yang Technique, the Great Reincarnation Technique, and the Great Creation Technique, constantly bombarding the prohibitions on the Creation Jade Butterfly, finally opening a minuscule crack to draw out strands of the Power of Creation.

"Good! This not only enhances my strength but also hones my three Dao Techniques, killing two birds with one stone," he mused.

Wukong slowly inhaled and exhaled the Power of Creation, cleansing his marrow, each bone wrapped in golden radiance, circulating the Power of Creation within.

The Intelligent Stone Monkey is one of the most difficult species to nurture between Heaven and Earth. The Creation Supreme of the Creation World is born from Creation, possessing boundless mana and unfathomable divine might. Yet Wukong’s fate is filled with many more challenges in comparison.

Meanwhile, Xuan Ming was condensing the final King of Primordial Spirit Thoughts, a crucial element that allows one to immerse fully and utilize Great Magical Power to consolidate, then command the remaining more than eighty billion Primordial Spirit Thoughts, coupled with her own origin-integrated realm, to unleash supreme divine might!

"King of Primordial Spirit Thoughts, condense for me! Integrate heaven and earth, command the Primordial Spirit!" Xuan Ming formed a spell with her hands.

Endless coldness and the aura of slaughter emanated from her, as time passed by days, months, and years.

Xuan Ming, though reluctant to cultivate, saw this as an opportunity delivered to her doorstep and could not resist. Moreover, achieving the realm of a Great Dao Sage would greatly assist Wukong, and she did not want to become a burden.

One year.

Two years.

Spring flowers and autumn moons, the seasons cycling, year after year.

"Good, finally I am about to condense this Primordial Spirit Thought!" A trace of joy emerged in Xuan Ming’s heart, as a thought was burgeoning, giving rise to thunder and lightning, with cold air swirling around.

The last Primordial Spirit Thought finally condensed!

"Boom, boom, boom!"

At this moment, the Great Dao Principles of the Posa Greater World roared, and Heavenly Dao howled.

In the void, countless phenomena galloped, the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragons scattered flowers, and auspicious mythical beasts danced around...

This thought transformed into a divine pagoda, a Nine-Layered Pagoda representing the ultimate number, surrounded by 8,999,999,900 billion Primordial Spirit Thoughts, like a monarch in the central-most!
