Chapter 865 - Extreme Yang to Yin (1/2)
The 18 Jinwu elders sat down. Each of them was extremely extraordinary and just as they sat down, one of them opened his mouth before a rumbling voice sounded, "Dao!"
As this word was spoken, Zhong Yue's mental flinched and the sun above his head shook; within this word was hidden endless wonders, wonders that were much more complicated and powerful than the ones contained within all of the Jinwu Deity Emperors' concepts!
As the word was spoken, fiery suns emerged from his back one after another. These were the old man's totem patterns and Dao and they all turned into Pure Yang suns, each of which contained a different Dao!
"Dao!"
The second Jinwu elder made a sign before releasing another Dao word that contained the power of creation, completely different to the first old man's.
This word shook Zhong Yue's mind and the sun behind his back was blown away and the fire drifted away for a few thousand miles long.
"Dao!" shouted the third old man.
"Dao!"
"Dao!"
….
In turn, the 18 Jinwu Creators displayed their own outstanding understanding towards the Innate Pure Yang Dao. Though they were all from the Jinwu Clan, their understanding towards the Innate Pure Yang Dao was completely different. Their starting point was the same but somewhere down the road, they'd taken their very own Dao path before they reached where they were now. Hence, even when they were all cultivating the Innate Pure Yang Dao, their understanding towards it was not the same.
The 18 Jinwu Creators turned into proud suns, each with different wonders and stood off with Zhong Yue's on a debate; this was a test that was much more grand and marvelous than the one with Deity Emperors. The Dao voices rumbled and unveiled the wonders of the innate — it was indescribable!
The sun above Zhong Yue flinched before the many suns, dimming from time to time. But in the end, there would always be Dao voices that echoed out from his sound, which prevented his sun from going out under the suppression of the 18 Jinwu elders.
Meanwhile, Ji Yunfei, Mo Haozun, and the others were in awe; even Mu Suge was worried for Zhong Yue as he had no idea if Zhong Yue could withstand the attacks from the 18 Jinwu Creators.
Among the 18 Creators, they were a few that rivaled him, also standing at the pinnacle of Creators!
Although he knew that Zhong Yue was an innate god in his previous life and was a Creator, he still couldn't help but be worried for Zhong Yue.
Out of their expectations, however, not only did Zhong Yue manage to stand his ground firmly against the 18 Creators, he even managed to retaliate!
This debate was completely on each other's understanding on the Innate Pure Yang Dao instead of cultivation level, hence, as someone who understood this Dao more than they did, it did not take long before Zhong Yue launched a counter-attack. The sun above his head started to shine brightly and the Dao voices echoed from his sun starting to overpower the Creators'. Finally, his sun completely outshone the Creators'.
"Innate Tai Yang Dao?"
The Creators' expressions changed right away before they shouted in sync and the proud suns collided with each other, merged with one another. The suns combined into a blue massive sun in the blink of an eye. This blue sun that hung above the Turtle Fishing Platform had the 18 Creators' Dao rules in it and it was a sun that forcefully turned into a godly sun from the Innate Tai Yang Dao!
As soon as this massive blue sun emerged, heat scorched the earth and rampaged fiercely, causing the many experts on the stage to feel as if they were all being melted!
The blue sun felt as if it could burn anything in this universe, and its Dao voices were far more complicated and advanced than its constituent suns. Upon being burnt by the sun, the many spectators immediately got down from the platform and distanced themselves away.
The Innate Pure Yang Dao was a lot more inferior to the Innate Tai Yang Dao; even though they had yet to successfully cultivate the purest Innate Tai Yang Dao, with their might combined, they could still merge their understandings together to create a complete Innate Tai Yang Dao.
Compared to the blue sun, Zhong Yue's seemed rather underwhelming. It looked just like an ant before this massive sun.
The blue godly sun continued to burn ablaze and beside it, Zhong Yue's sun continued to resist it, colliding and crashed with each other.
This debate continued for ten days and right now, the puny sun was far larger than it was before; as the debate continued, the little sun absorbed the power from the massive blue godly sun, siphoning away its totem patterns to strengthen itself. As the little sun enlarged, the blue godly sun shrunk.
Suddenly, the expression of the 18 Jinwu Creators turned pale and the blue godly sun writhed while the Dao voices disappeared without a sign.
"Impressive, the sun has no borders and it could light up anything!"
The many Creators stood up and bowed at Zhong Yue as their tones took on a greater level of respect, "This fellow Daoist from the Yi Clan is amazing, the 18 of us surrender, your understandings on this Dao far outstrip ours!"
Zhong Yue immediately bowed back and said humbly, "Thank you, elders. I merely understood the Innate Tai Yang Dao. I won because you were all unfamiliar with this field. Thank you for your help in aiding me to refine my Dao.
Previously, through the debate, Zhong Yue devoured the 18 Creators' blue godly sun, absorbing the power hidden within the sun to strengthen his own. Without this debate, it would have taken him a hundred years to achieve, hence, his gratitude towards those elders was heartfelt.
The 18 Jinwu Creators bowed back and left. Just as Zhong Yue was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a Jinwu Clan's young lady rapidly descending from the skies. The lady landed right onto the Turtle Fishing Platform and sat with her legs crossed.
"Fellow Daoist Yi, do you mind another round?" asked the lady as she giggled.
Zhong Yue, however, was surprised upon noticing that the lady was just a True Deity. He was puzzled at why was this lady was sent to debate with him when even Deity Emperors and Creators lost to him.
But that did not stop him from sitting down again. He nodded at the lady and replied politely, "Please, after you, senior martial sister."
Jin Chufei on the other hand, bore a serious expression and said, "She's here! Seems like a massive tremble occurred among we Jinwu Clan's higher-ups and they wanted her to retain our clan's reputation!"
