2163 End of the Road
Before the Martial Dao Prime Body came to the Scarlet Dark Valley, he had heard that the Valley Master of the Scarlet Dark Valley had once entered an ancient ruin and obtained a treasure. That was the reason why his cultivation increased exponentially and he rose rapidly in this territory.
If he was not wrong, the so-called treasure should be this black incomplete diagram.
If one were to stare at the incomplete diagram, it would be extremely easy for them to be immersed in it and be affected by the violent, murderous and destructive emotions within.
The Martial Dao Prime Body was caught off guard and almost fell into it.
Once one’s mind was affected, the incomplete diagram would release a strange power that would cause mysterious pitch-black demonic patterns to appear on the viewer’s body!
The pitch-black Dharmic patterns possessed an extremely strong and berserk absorption power towards Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.
With the augmentation of that power, his cultivation speed would definitely increase exponentially!
That was also the reason why the Valley Master of Scarlet Dark Valley’s cultivation could advance in a short period of time. In fact, he eventually advanced to the Perfected One realm and condensed a Dao Fruit to become a Perfected Fiend.
Although the black incomplete diagram depicted a figure, it was almost certain that it recorded a top-tier fiend technique!
That fiend technique could even affect the Martial Dao Prime Body!
Sensing something unusual, the Martial Dao Prime Body broke free before long.
Even the remaining pitch-black Dharmic patterns on his body were washed away by his blood qi.
The Martial Dao Prime Body used the Martial Dao Furnace to nurture a hundred sutras and smelt cultivation techniques. However, he would not truly be restricted by those sutras.
His foundation was the Martial Dao. The purpose of smelting the cultivation techniques was to peer into the secrets of Heaven and Earth from them and create his own Dao and Dharmic arts!
The Martial Dao Prime Body would browse through many sutras, cultivation techniques and even attempt to cultivate them. However, he would not fall into them or leave any marks on his body.
If he wanted to create a Dharmic formulation that was different from the immortal, Buddhist and fiend Daos, he could only succeed if he broke free from the influence of the three Dharmic Daos.
The current combat strength of the Martial Dao Prime Body was far stronger than the Green Lotus True Body. However, his cultivation realm had already reached a bottleneck and it was difficult for him to break through.
If he wanted to advance further, he had to create the next Dharmic Dao.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn front of him was darkness, a bottomless abyss.
He had to create his Dao before he could continue forward!
However, it was different for the Green Lotus True Body.
Although the cultivation realm of the Green Lotus True Body could not compare to the Martial Dao Prime Body, his future was clear. After the Heaven Immortal realm was the Perfected One realm.
After the Perfected One realm was the Grotto-heaven realm.
After the Grotto-heaven realm was the Emperor realm.
The path of cultivation was like a towering mountain.
There were already ancestors who had paved stone steps in front of the Green Lotus True Body with blood and corpses—all he had to do was ascend.
As for the Martial Dao Prime Body, he had to rely on his own strength to carve out stone steps on the mountain peak before ascending.
In comparison, it was easier for the Green Lotus True Body to reach the peak.
“Do you recognize this incomplete diagram?”
The spirit consciousness of the Martial Dao Prime Body moved and he asked with a voice transmission.
Heavenly Wolf came from the upper world and knew the Hell Suppression Tripod as well as many ancient secrets. He had the highest chance of knowing the origin of the incomplete diagram.
“No,”
Heavenly Wolf said, “However, this incomplete diagram is quite old and might even precede me! There should be an extremely powerful fiend technique recorded on it.”
This was the same as what the Martial Dao Prime Body had judged.
The fiend technique on the black incomplete diagram could absorb Heaven and Earth Essence Qi wildly and was extremely domineering.
However, no matter what, it could not compare to the terror of the Martial Dao Furnace!
The Martial Dao Furnace could refine an entire Essence Spirit Mine directly!
Of course, the black incomplete diagram was still of great help to him.
If the Prime Body wanted to take another step forward in the Martial Dao, he would have to read a large number of cultivation techniques and sutras.
The higher the quality and the stronger the cultivation technique, the greater the benefits it would provide for him after being smelted by the Martial Dao Furnace.
Back in the Dao Inheritance Ground, Su Zimo obtained many inheritances and accumulated a large amount of experience. After 5,000 years of consolidation, he finally established the Dao for all living beings and imparted martial arts to the world.
“Cough, cough!”
Right then, a heavy cough sounded from the side, interrupting the thoughts of the Martial Dao Prime Body.
Although Yan Beichen broke free, he had suffered too much torture over the years and could only hold out till now because of the hatred in his heart.
Now that he was out of danger, his heart relaxed and his hatred faded slightly—the injuries in his body exploded completely.
Yan Beichen’s face was pale as he coughed out a few mouthfuls of black blood. The lifeforce in his body was extremely weak and he was at the end of his road!
In Yan Beichen’s consciousness, his Essence Spirit was filled with cracks and dimmed.
If this continued, Yan Beichen would die before long!
The Martial Dao Prime Body looked at Yan Beichen and frowned.
Although he was strong in combat and had extraordinary methods, he was helpless against Yan Beichen’s injuries.
There had never been any elixirs in his storage bag as he did not need them.
Furthermore, no elixirs could save Yan Beichen right now.
Even the Seven Glow Immortal Ginseng could only heal the Asura’s body but not his Essence Spirit.
Be it in the upper or lower worlds, elixirs that could heal the Essence Spirit were way too rare.
However, Yan Beichen’s injuries were way too serious!
“Brother Yan…”
The Martial Dao Prime Body called softly with a heavy heart.
“Fu…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs though he could already predict his outcome, Yan Beichen faked a relaxed smile. “Zimo, you don’t have to worry. It’s fine if I die, I can head down to the netherworld and pay Pianran a visit.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body sighed internally.
Qin Pianran’s death was a huge blow to Yan Beichen.
All these years, if not for the fact that he was thinking about searching for that illusory netherworld and the mysterious Six Paths of Reincarnation, he would not have been able to ascend and would have long committed suicide in Tianhuang Mainland!
However, the Martial Dao Prime Body learned from Heavenly Wolf that if one did not cultivate to the Hollow Nether realm, even if they died and entered the netherworld, Yan Beichen would not be able to find Qin Pianran.
If their cultivation realms were not high enough and they entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation, their memories of their previous lives would definitely be erased and they would be reborn.
The fate between the two of them had already been severed.
Whether or not Yan Beichen lived or died, nothing could change.
“Oo, Oo!”
Right then, the cry of a little beast could be heard not far away.
Right on the heels of that, a white figure darted over at an extremely fast speed. Arriving at Yan Beichen’s feet, it spun continuously and whimpered.
It was a white sable that was as long as an arm. Its fur was snow-white without any impurities.
The white sable’s pitch-black eyes shone with tears of worry.
“It’s you,”
Yan Beichen looked at the white sable and wanted to bend down to caress its cheek. However, his injuries were aggravated as he knelt on the ground and could not help but laugh bitterly.
“I encountered this white sable after ascending. It’s quite sentient,”
Yan Beichen murmured softly, “To think that you haven’t left after I fell into trouble.”
After a brief pause, Yan Beichen said, “Unfortunately, I’m going to leave first this time round.”
Oo! Oo!
The white sable whined softly as though it was crying, causing one’s heart to ache.
“Master, I might have a way to save him,”
Right then, Heavenly Wolf’s voice sounded in the consciousness of the Martial Dao Prime Body from the silver mask.
