Above the Great Dao

Chapter 1059 478: True King, Daoist Embryo, True God

These ghost gods were imprisoned in the Blood Sea Hell by him, serving him as a major aid in his mana. If they break free from the control of the Blood Sea Hell, Chen Shi would be in danger!

"It works!" Zhong Wuwang felt a surge of joy.

As these ghost gods seemed about to break away from Chen Shi's control, suddenly, a great sun and moon rose in the Blood Sea Hell. The sun circled around the moon, reversing yin and yang, and in the next moment, the flesh on these ghosts swiftly peeled away, turning into blood and falling into the Blood Sea.

For a moment, Chen Shi's aura received a considerable boost!

"A dual arena?"

Zhong Wuwang's heart skipped a beat, and without hesitation, he activated the first move to break the Yin-Yang Dojo, Venus Invades the Southern Dipper!

But as soon as he executed the move, he suddenly remembered Yan Shaomian had already used it in front of Chen Shi!

This technique so wonderfully disrupted Chen Shi's Celestial Stars, not only breaking his Yin-Yang Dojo, but could also break others' fields or realms.

Yet, as he unleashed this move, before disrupting the star phenomena in Chen Shi's dojo, the Blood Transformation Divine Saber was already at his throat!

Zhong Wuwang felt chills down his spine, quickly performing the Heavenly Immortal Finger to clash with the blade of the Blood Transformation Divine Saber, blocking this move.

"Clang!"

The Blood Transformation Divine Saber bounced back. Zhong Wuwang quickly glanced at his own fingers and breathed a sigh of relief, amazed, "This finger technique is that strong!"

"Er Niu, how many strikes can your broken finger block from me?"

Chen Shi charged at him like a mad demon, fiercely hacking. Zhong Wuwang remained exceptionally calm, consistently using the Heavenly Immortal Finger to counter the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Sword, blocking the overwhelming blade light. What couldn't be blocked, he dodged.

Yang Bi stood in the distance, watching anxiously. With his intellect, he could see the deficiencies in the two's techniques, but those flaws often flashed by, making it impossible to grasp them.

His current cultivation was still in the Refining God stage, far from reaching Chen Shi and Zhong Wuwang's levels.

Zhong Wuwang's realm had reached the pinnacle of the Mahayana Realm, a point only reached by Chen Shi's four disciples in this world, unmatched by others.

A step forward, and he'd be the first new law immortal of the West Bull New Continent!

Although Chen Shi was also in the Refining God Realm, the Blood Transformation Divine Saber and Blood Lake Scripture made him stand at the peak of the Mahayana Realm. Compared to Zhong Wuwang, his mana was less, but his combat ability was extremely strong.

"Zhong Wuwang's immortal finger technique has issues."

Yang Bi's eyes were sharp, immediately spotting the peculiarity. Zhong Wuwang's Heavenly Immortal Finger was only trained to two fingers, with nothing else. A complete cultivation technique should allow training throughout the body.

If he only trained to the wrist, it meant Zhong Wuwang hadn't received true instruction.

"He learned this immortal finger technique from two fingers on a hand bone! The hand bone's owner must be immensely powerful!"

Yang Bi was slightly moved. Using the Witch Sacrificial Dao Pattern on the hand bone to fight against the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Sword, he was never hurt. What was the origin of the hand bone's owner?

Why was only the hand bone left?

"Apart from his hands, other parts of Zhong Wuwang's body are vulnerable, one touch from the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Sword and he'd be dead. However, the hand bone's owner is too formidable! If he learns the complete Witch Sacrificial Dao Pattern, even immortals might not be able to kill him!"

Yang Bi was amazed, trying to memorize the various Great Dao Textures emerging on the Heavenly Immortal Finger, but Zhong Wuwang's movement technique was too fast, and the Dao patterns on his fingers changed, making them hard to see clearly.

"Remember as much as you can."

Yang Bi's eyes flashed, thinking, "Chen Shi must also be memorizing. If I exchange what I memorized with his, I might gain insights into this immortal law."

Chen Shi was also astonished. The Heavenly Immortal Finger was incredibly strong, standing firm against the Blood Transformation Divine Saber. If Zhong Wuwang switched to using the cultivation technique of Despair Slope, or changed to an immortal artifact, he wouldn't be able to counter the Blood Transformation Divine Saber.

Zhong Wuwang was both surprised and delighted, unable to hold back a hearty laugh.

After the destruction of the Great Shang Era, the Yin-Yang Two Realms of the West Bull New Continent were filled with various prehistoric relics, some were immortal magical treasures, others were grand structures, and some were bizarre items. Many people from Despair Slope attempted to decipher the Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns on prehistoric relics, and among them, Zhong Wuwang was the most skilled.

Once he found a fragment of a hand bone.

This item was also a prehistoric relic, but only the index and middle fingers had remaining Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns, the other bones had none.

Zhong Wuwang comprehended a set of finger techniques from these Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns, and this was the first time using them, finding their power far greater than expected.

At first, he feared Chen Shi would break the Witch Sacrificial Dao Patterns, but now he was reassured.

"I'll go back to the place where I discovered the hand bone, I might find more bone fragments!"

Chen Shi couldn't lay him down. Suddenly, he withdrew his saber, descended into the guest room of the Yang family with its roof blown off, and sat at the tea table, smiling, "I'm done! Er Niu, I'll remember your life for now, I'll come for it next time! Why are you standing there? Come down for some tea."

Zhong Wuwang frowned slightly, thinking, "This man is capricious. I can't tell if he truly wants to chop me down or is willing to make peace."

He descended from the air, returned to the tea table to sit, Yang Bi also descended, seeing his wife boiling tea, he quickly went over, whispering, "Let me do it, they're all villains..."

Xiao Fang smiled, pushing his hands away, whispering, "Let me do it. Their killing aura is overwhelming and dominant. Making tea can hopefully bring some peace."

Yang Bi had to let her.

The three sat around the tea table, Xiao Fang poured the tea, her lithe sleeves brisk and fragrant, a serene elegance, indeed diluting much of Chen Shi and Zhong Wuwang's belligerence. The two's expressions softened considerably.

"Envious of Brother Yang, marrying such a good wife." Zhong Wuwang laughed.

Chen Shi's gaze fixed on his two fingers, smiling, "Er Niu also trained a pair of good fingers. Could you show me again to open my eyes?"

Zhong Wuwang didn't fall for it, picking up his teacup with a smile, "There'll be plenty of chances in the future."

This guest room was without a roof, truly living up to the saying of "bare walls."

Chen Shi looked at Yang Bi, Yang Bi understood and said, "Brother Zhong just mentioned finding something about the True King at Despair Slope, and some matters of the Heavenly Venerate, could you elaborate?"

Zhong Wuwang pondered for a moment, saying, "The True King was the first to obtain an Innate Dao Embryo."

Chen Shi said, "My grandfather told me this. The True King died in battle at Despair Slope, sacrificed by the Heavenly Venerate, which is why the sun shone again."

Zhong Wuwang said, "Chen Yindou and others disguised as Heavenly Dao's Apostles, entered Despair Slope. I encountered them. However, in their hurry, they didn't go through all the books at the Wenda Academy. They didn't, but I did."

Chen Shi was slightly stirred, saying, "You found more records about the True King?"

Zhong Wuwang shook his head, "What I found was research on the Innate Dao Embryo."

He looked at the two, saying in a deep voice, "The volume I found was written by a Heavenly Dao Immortal, documenting their research on the True King's Innate Dao Embryo. The immortal wrote that the True King's Innate Dao Embryo was exactly the same in appearance as the Outer Heaven True God."

Chen Shi and Yang Bi were both astonished, Yang Bi said to Chen Shi, "You're the Child Scholar, is your Innate Dao Embryo also exactly the same as the Outer Heaven True God?"

Chen Shi pursed his lips, saying, "My Innate Dao Embryo is inside him."

Yang Bi looked at Zhong Wuwang, Zhong Wuwang said, "I hadn't seen the face of the Outer Heaven True God before, as it was always hidden behind the sun and moon, difficult to see clearly. But recently, Chen Yindou sacrificed the sun and moon of the Upper Realm gods, reigniting the eyes of the Outer Heaven True God. At that moment, I clearly saw the Outer Heaven True God's face, indeed exactly the same as the Innate Dao Embryo."

He paused and said, "The immortal who wrote the book had a speculation. The Innate Dao Embryo could possibly be the Outer Heaven True God's self-preservation!"

Chen Shi and Yang Bi were each dumbfounded, "Self-preservation?"

Zhong Wuwang nodded gently, saying, "The Outer Heaven True God sensed his imminent demise, so he would impart his quintessential power, in the form of bestowing a Divine Embryo, to the most outstanding individual. This Divine Embryo is the Innate Dao Embryo, and the recipient would become progressively stronger. Ultimately, the Outer Heaven True God would reclaim the Innate Dao Embryo to prolong his own life."

Chen Shi pondered for a moment, saying, "The Outer Heaven True God's purpose in giving the Innate Dao Embryo, would it be to hope that the recipient eventually grows into a new True God, to take care of the West Bull New Continent?"

Zhong Wuwang laughed heartily, "Chen Shi, your demonic nature runs deep, yet you have such naïve thoughts!"

Yang Bi solemnly admired, "This is due to an innately pure nature, no wonder he received the Innate Dao Embryo. The Outer Heaven True God chose rightly. If I were the Outer Heaven True God, I would also choose someone like the True King and Chen Shi, rather than you."
