Chapter 1048: Chapters 996-997 – The Original Source of Heaven and Earth: Chaos Confrontation, Two-in-One_2 Chapter 1048: Chapters 996-997 – The Original Source of Heaven and Earth: Chaos Confrontation, Two-in-One_2 Even if one were to step back ten thousand steps, and ultimately had to rely on the Indomitable Divine Position, the stronger one’s own power became before the enfeoffment of the Divine Position, the stronger one would be in refining and wielding the Divine Position afterward. This is a mutually reinforcing, entirely beneficial arrangement without any drawbacks.

“Although the Indomitable Divine Position is desirable, it ultimately makes one lower than others. Human greed is endless. What one desires now is longevity, but in the future, what one desires will not stop there.” Lord of Da Jiang steadied his own mindset, his Divine Soul resonated with heaven and earth, his figure submerged in silence, as if he were a sculpted deity, steadfast and unmoving, simply experiencing everything about the Original Source of Heaven and Earth.

Countless Supreme Strong because of this True Immortal’s hand in hand, each raised thousands of emotions in their hearts. They all used their own methods to glimpse everything about the True Immortal, to feel the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, continually enhancing themselves, laying the foundation for their future, whether it was by enfeoffing the Indomitable Divine Position or by using their own power to push open the grand doors of the True Immortal, it was an opportunity not to be missed.

At the frontier, Pang Hong’s face bore a faint smile, perhaps only at this time, he did not need to consider other matters. His heart had always been resolute, desiring to prove True Immortality through the Golden Core Dao.

Therefore, he did not hesitate, resolutely seizing the time to comprehend the Original Source of Heaven and Earth.

As Pei Xuanjing and Peacock King constantly clashed, the Original Source of Heaven and Earth trembled, space shattered countless times, both nearly stepping outside of heaven and earth.

The Chaos Void beyond heaven and earth, feared by countless Supreme Strong, meant nothing to these two True Immortals. The rolling Chaos Qi swept across, raging wildly, yet Pei Xuanjing still appeared calm, undaunted by it all.

The dao robe on his body billowed, and the Six-Color Sword in his hand waved gently, as if opening the heavens and splitting the earth, causing countless flows of chaos to stir, retreating in all directions. These flows of Chaos Qi collided, breaking through Yin and Yang, giving rise to Earth Water Wind Fire, the Four Images generating the Five Elements, Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth continuously cycling.

However, this semblance of opening the heavens and splitting the earth, seemingly on the verge of forming a Small Thousand World, also instantly vanished due to a loss of power.

The construction of heaven and earth is born from the Origin, but what is the Origin? It is actually the gathering and condensation of countless Laws, countless Laws interweaving and connecting to form the Original Source of Heaven and Earth.

Supreme Strong at the pinnacle of the Spirit Realm, they comprehend the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, sense the Laws, unable to master the Laws, hence unable to transform themselves.

Only by completely mastering the Laws and condensing their own Great Tao can they break the shackles of life, transform into True Immortals, and seek immortality.

Gods Sealing List, a heavenly and earthly treasure crafted by Pei Xuanjing along with many True Immortals with the aid of heaven and earth. It is essentially a ladder to the Way of Laws for these living beings.

Each Indomitable Divine Position not only implies longevity but more importantly, it symbolizes different authorities. While representing the execution of the Heavenly Dao, it is also their opportunity to perceive the Laws, to thus sense the Law of Heaven and Earth.

Thus, while they wield the Divine Positions, they can most aptly experience the workings of the Way of Heaven and Earth, the Law of Heaven and Earth, leveraging this opportunity, then to understand the Laws, to control the Laws.

As long as Heaven and Earth have not been destroyed, and the Divine Position has not collapsed, the deities occupying the Divine Position can use the years to continuously and carefully comprehend their own Laws, until one day they achieve complete understanding.

Just like the cultivators who cultivate the Thunder Path, while they continuously execute the representation of thunder on behalf of Heaven, every time they operate, they can observe the destructive and creative path of thunderbolt, using this opportunity to refine their divinity of the Thunderbolt Law, even if it is only a trace. Still, with this prototype, they can continue to refine and perfect it, until one day they have the opportunity to transform it into the Dao Fruit of the Thunder Path.

However, the path of cultivation is extremely difficult, fraught with hardship. Even with the roads opened by predecessors and their experiences, to truly emerge from the billions of living beings and step onto the peak position still requires great fortune, great perseverance, and great wisdom.

So-called great wisdom is the ability to penetrate falsehood, dispel temptations, recognize oneself, and directly point to the original heart.

So-called great perseverance is being indomitable, braving thorns and brambles, creating the impossible within the impossible, breaking constraints, shattering all difficulties, and maintaining the self unchanged.

The so-called great opportunity is the favor and affection of the qi luck of Heaven and Earth.

The three elements gathered together, great wisdom, great perseverance, and a great opportunity, are indispensable. Only then could one truly transcend among living beings, ascend to become a True Immortal, and achieve their own Great Tao.

The so-called ascension to immortality is to ascend to the Immortal Path, condense their own True Immortal Dao Fruit, alone atop all, overlooking The Heroes, ruling over Heaven and Earth, possessing supreme sovereignty over all beings, enacting the mandate of Heaven, and even standing shoulder to shoulder with Heaven and Earth.

Whether it’s any of the five paths of Heaven, Earth, Human, God, Ghost, at the end of the day, the cultivation is essentially about one’s own Great Tao, enabling oneself to transcend and transform, to stand alongside Heaven and Earth, or perhaps even transcend beyond it.

At this moment, standing in the Chaos Void, Pei Xuanjing and the Peacock King were just like that, both being True Immortals who inherently stood shoulder to shoulder with Heaven and Earth. Even as they stood in the Chaos Void, the terrifying chaos could not cause them the slightest harm.

The Peacock King’s five tail feathers merged into one, forming an eighteen-foot-long halberd made up of the five colors blue, red, black, white, and yellow. With the cycles of the Five Elements, he gripped it with both hands. Each time he swung the halberd, he could annihilate countless Chaos Qi, his power in no way inferior to Pei Xuanjing.

The two True Immortals represented different laws. Even if the laws that initially composed their Great Dao were similar, their ultimate manifestations were entirely different.

Take Pei Xuanjing, for instance; despite mastering the Five Elements, these were merely the foundation. More crucial were the perfections of the Four Seasons and Five Orders, Wind and Thunder, Rain and Lightning, the cycles of Yin and Yang, and the creation and destruction they wrought. For Pei Xuanjing, the Five Elements Law was merely an aid, not the entirety of his Taoist Fruit.

If one truly needed to describe it accurately, perhaps it should be called perfection, encompassing all things, embracing everything to describe Pei Xuanjing’s goals.

This, in fact, was also Pei Xuanjing’s original Dao, where the perfection of Essence, Qi, Spirit matched the flawlessness pursued by his Golden Core Dao.

This was also why he aimed to promote all the five paths of Heaven, Earth, Human, God, Ghost to True Immortality as his ultimate goal in Immortal Dao cultivation because this was his Dao.

As for the Peacock King, with whom he was currently hand in hand, the opponent was also rooted in the Five Elements Law but had transcended the Way of the Five Elements. He could reverse the Chaos to control Yin and Yang, or utilize the cycling conversion of the Five Elements, walking his innate Divine Abilities’ sealing path with the Five-color Divine Light.

Of course, such a Dao pertains to one’s core essence, hidden from any powerhouse, even from other True Immortals, aside from the Peacock King himself.

The two clashed in the Chaos Void, the Six-Color Sword and the Five Elements Divine Halberd engaging in unimaginably fierce collisions, each impact causing the Chaos Void to shake, which, even beyond the firmaments, brought countless reactions to the ascendant Great Ming World.

Interestingly enough, the weapons wielded by the two, unlike those of other True Immortals that transformed from top-tier magical divine weapons into Semi-Immortal Artifacts, were both condensed from their respective Great Dao into Law God Weapons.

For powerhouses of the Immortal Path, they could choose to refine and transform a true Immortal Artifact or deepen their understanding of laws to condense their own Law God Weapons. These two options are neither inferior nor exclusive to each other but can coexist, merely reflecting different aspects.

The only difference is, Law God Weapons could only be wielded by True Immortals, but Immortal Artifacts could be lent out. If a True Immortal were to fall, the Law God Weapon would disperse, but the Immortal Artifact would exist eternally.

If it were those True Immortals who had ascended for thousands or tens of thousands of years, it wouldn’t be strange for them to possess their own Immortal Artifacts as well as condense their own Law God Weapon.

However, these True Immortals had ascended not long ago, so they could only choose one of the two. Most True Immortals still had concerns about their sects in their hearts, hence they opted for transforming an Immortal Artifact, to serve as a suppression foundation.

Only Pei Xuanjing and the Peacock King seemed unconcerned about such matters, as they chose to condense Law God Weapons first.
