Chapter 456 - [Celestial Demon Nine Revolving Worshipping Art] (1/2)
The mountains and his fingers all looked exactly the same.
However, the mountains were way too huge they would have to be calculated in distances of thousands in miles.
Zhong Yue had seen Bo Xun's head that was even mistaken for a great mountain. He had also seen the huge heart of the Bi Xie Celestial Emperor buried deep in the forbidden land underground of Swords Gate.
But these five finger mountains were even bigger than them. Zhong Yue hadn't the slightest clue Zhong Yue as to how strong the evil existence to be able to do something like this.
Why, why did that evil existence cut its hand and bury it here?
A horrible shriek sounded out, and he looked over toward it. He saw a Qi Practitioner, walking into a wave of black smoke as a demon and walking out as a bony skeleton with not a single drop of blood left on it.
The curse….
Zhong Yue looked at the black, and his hair stood up like bristles. Due to the curse targeting the Fuxi Celestial Race, he – who had awakened 20 percent of his Fuxi bloodline – felt his body tingling, as if warning him about the danger around him.
Deadly lack smoke rose beneath the five finger mountains, and he saw many thick metal chains crawling on the five finger mountains.
Is that the evil existence's totem patterns?
A thought flashed across Zhong Yue's heart, but the metal chains were too abstruse for him to even get anything out from them. This was because his current knowledge still limited him to reading only the simplest part of the totem patterns.
"I've heard that there is also an ancient stone tablet in the Peach Garden, they say it's crimson red, soaked in blood that never seemed to dry off." Chi Xue suddenly said, "There are words engraved on it, but most of them have been blurred over time. Although, there are some that are still very clear. Hmm, it says… Fuxi … nevermore to return…"
Zhong Yue's made sure that his face didn't betray the raging storm in his heart. That evil existence laid down the curse, condemning every newborn Fuxi from then on. Not only that, but it even raised a stone tablet to gloat?
"I've also seen it."
Husan Weng then said, "Just right in the Peach Garden between the five mountains. More words were legible in the past, but now… just a few of them."
Zhong Yue's calm voice masked the anger billowing beneath it as he said, "Let's have a look then."
Husan Weng led the way as they walked toward the Peach Garden in the middle of the five finger mountains. The Peach Garden was surrounded by the mountains, without going close enough, one wouldn't be able to see it.
But the mountains were way too big, they covered a great distance of land, and even starting their journey from the foot of the mountains, it would still take them dozens of days to reach the Peach Garden.
"Chi Xue, how do the Qi Practitioners cultivate the Inner Core level to the extreme state? How do you utilize the force of heaven and earth to form the Avatar?" Seeing that they have many days of work ahead of them, Zhong Yue seized the chance to humbly ask Chi Xue.
"Cultivate the Inner Core to the extremity…?" Chi Xue startled for a split second, she then exclaimed in shock, "What? You haven't already done so, how are you still so strong then?"
"Well… I did cultivate my Awakening and Atman Body level to the extreme state." Zhong Yue explained, "I've reverse-opened the five secret realms and also opened the Bloodline Secret Realm. And while I was in the Atman Body stage, I cultivated my Yuan Shen to 360 feet tall."
Chi Xue stared at him blankly, only being able to regain her composure after a few moments. She shook her head and said, "What a guy… reverse-opening the five secret realms and opening the sixth secret realm. Succeeding in either one of those things is a remarkable achievement in and of itself. Yet, you did both. In that case, breaking through the Yuan Shen's limit of 200 feet is natural, but shouldn't cultivating the Inner Core level to the extreme state be fairly simple to you as well? Why is it that… Oh, I forgot, the Ancestral Star's cultivation heritage is incomplete, there are no recordings left regarding this."
Zhong Yue nodded with a smile, "That's why I can only rely on you to answer my questions."
Chi Xue then replied, "For Qi Practitioners, there is an extreme state for each level, such as the cultivation of the lightning pool psyche ocean for the Spirit Nurturing level.
"The achievement of the Yuan Shen's three forms indicates the extreme state for the Rebirth level. But the Awakening level is a little more unique, there are two extreme states, one being the reverse-opening of secret realms, with the other being the opening of the sixth secret realm. As for Atman Body, it is to break through the Yuan Shen limit of 200 feet. The extreme state for the Inner Core level you are asking about… is referred to as the Nine Revolving Inner Core."
"Nine Revolving Inner Core? How does one achieve that?"
Chi Xue then answered, "Nine Revolving Inner Core, each revolution indicates a cycle of reincarnation for the inner core, and each revolution remakes the core to become stronger than before. After nine revolutions, the inner core will be at least twice as strong as it was before.
"The reincarnations of inner core work on the basis of destruction and rebirth. The inner core is broken down and reformed stronger than before with each iteration. However, this is very dangerous. There is a risk that the inner core breaks down but never reforms again. In that case, your best outcome would be managing to keep half of your previous strength, but that's not too great either, is it?
"However, if you complete the nine revolutions, when the inner core is formed again for the tenth time, it will have reached the extremity. As for how to do it, each race and clan has their own methods. The Phoenix race has the [Nirvana Art], while my Western Mother Celestial Race uses the [Golden Mother's Embracement Art]. Both are consummate arts in Kun Lun. I'll teach them to you now, and you can have a look at it."
Her psyche then flowed out and imparted the two arts to Zhong Yue. "In fact, the spirits themselves also contain their own respective arts. If you can fully synergize with your spirit, you will be able to find the best way to reincarnate your inner core. But I thought that with the [Nirvana Art] and [Golden Mother Embracement Art] as references, you will be able to find your way quicker."
In the spirit?
Zhong Yue suddenly felt as if a black cloth hindering his vision was suddenly pulled away.
