Chapter 499: The Mysterious Divine Light

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

In the midst of the confusion, the demonic spirit of Zhuyan had devoured the Flickering Light Evil Qi. Thus Zhou Bao doubted whether he would be able to use the Three Realms Division again or not.

The Three Realms Division was a fundamental skill for Zhou Bao to escape and fight against others. Without it, how could he ever have peace of mind?

After going through a Divine Tribulation and expelling the kindling of Dragon Chimera, Zhou Bao found that the merging of the Real Body of Primordial Demonic Ape Zhuyan and himself had been a hasty and reckless act.

Now, every stream of demonic spirit that he practiced was unable to stay in his body for long and they would then merge into his body. Thus his tendons and meridians became tougher, even a thousand times tougher than cowhide. His body also became stronger to the extent of being deemed indestructible. Zhou Bao was able to resist a Pure Yang Celestial Device with his body. As long as he was not dealing with a powerful and deadly secret skill like the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword, he had nothing to worry about.

However, Zhou Bao, who was somewhat timid and afraid of death, had always put his safety first. Even though he could use only one punch to smash a Pure Yang Celestial Device with his indestructible body, he had no interest in doing that. There could always be another person stronger than you. Only an idiot would attempt to resist a Pure Yang Celestial Device using his own body. Even if he managed to deal with a Pure Yang Celestial Device, how would it be possible to fight against a fairy weapon?

If a person owned the Dharma power of Real Essence and had Gang Qi as protection, he could melt down a living person merely by raising his hand. That was really an amazing feat to have!

But, what about now?

He found that except for the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword, he was now unable to activate the skills controlled by Internal Qi and Real Essence, such as Three Realms Division, Infinite Trembling Contemplation, the Heavenly Jade Technique and Snake-like Breath Holding Skill of Seven Wonderful Techniques and Flipping Sky Seal. How could he activate those ways without Internal Qi and Real Essence?

“Wait, the Flipping Sky Seal!”

Suddenly, something seemed to occur to Zhou Bao and he sunk his Divine Awareness into Dantian.

On that day in the Mountain City of the Qin Family, he had activated the Flipping Sky Seal to release the protective formation of the Mountain City of the Qin Family. At that time, the Flipping Sky Seal seemed to have been stimulated and had transformed into a talisman, flying back to Zhou Bao’s Dantian. That talisman looked like a handwriting letter “山” (mountain), but it was made of numerous filaments of pneuma and looked quite complicated. Even when Zhou Bao had utilized his Divine Awareness to probe it, he still felt dizzy after doing that. There was a solemn and overriding spirit to it. When that talisman was formed, it became easier for Zhou Bao to activate the Flipping Sky Seal. The moment he had planned to use the Flipping Sky Seal, the talisman in his Dantian would transform the Dharma power of Real Essence in the Dantian into Flipping Sky Seal in a relatively short time. The strong power and attack force of the Flipping Sky Seal were equal to that of a Pure Yang Celestial Device. That had made Zhou Bao both delighted and confused, wondering how this could happen.

Yet he had a lazy nature and did not want to try to figure out what caused this confusion. Whenever he sensed that something had gone wrong, he would only try several times to find the solution if it captured his interest. If it did not, he could not be bothered with it.

Now, there was no demonic spirit left in his body and his Dantian was also empty. He had even spit out the Demonic Fire Seed. Was that talisman still in his Diantian?

“Eh?” When Zhou Bao plunged his Divine Awareness into his Dantian, he found it odd that the talisman was still in there. Not only that, the talisman was shimmering with a golden color.

“The Golden Dharma Power?”

It was impossible to tell when the talisman had been infiltrated by the Golden Dharma power in his giant Dantian composed by his nine acupoints. That talisman looked simple and austere but it was emitting a spirit that spelled dominance.

Seeing this talisman, Zhou Bao couldn’t help feeling completely overwhelmed by it.

“Great! But now I only have this talisman. Apart from the useless Dharma power, I have nothing in my Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints. How can I activate the Flipping Sky Seal? Damn it! Though this demonic ape is powerful, I have to rely on myself in the future. Without any demonic spirit, why did I open so many acupoints?”

“I don’t feel right. There should be a way to practice it. Such a Primordial Fierce Beast like this should have inherited its blood and have been equipped with all the cultivation methods and Divine Senses. Since I have absorbed everything of this Primordial Fierce Beast, it’s impossible for me to have lost all knowledge of everything”

With this in mind, Zhou Bao completely sunk his Divine Sense into his body and took a deep breath, causing a ripple to go through his bones and muscles. Finally, Zhou Bao gave off a stream of savage spirit. All of a sudden, the mysterious information residing in the bottom of the bloodline was activated and was transferred to his brain. After receiving it, Zhou Bao’s face twisted in a grimace.

“Damn, how did I ever forget this!”

Yes, how could he have forgotten about that incident?

The acupoints of Zhou Bao were the Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints he gained from the Dragon Flying Technique. With the Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints, he had accumulated a large amount of Dharma power of Real Essence. Almost no one at the same level could defeat him. Zhou Bao was even able to challenge others regardless of their ranks. All this should contribute to the Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints. Now the problem was that he had formed the Real Body of the Primordial Fierce Beast, the Demonic Ape Zhuyan, and unified his Real Body and Dharma Body, reaching the Mysterious Realm.

There were three stages in the Mysterious Realm, namely Pulse-Steadying, Blood-Changing and Marrow-Cleansing, which were called the Three Big Realms. It would be a huge progress to be able to pass through each stage.

Ordinary people reached the Mysterious Realm to practice their Real Bodies. Those Real Bodies consisted of their Internal Qi and a bit of spirit. Different cultivation methods would form different Real Bodies and Dharma Laksana with different degrees of power. Whether it was in Pulse-Steadying, Blood-Changing or Marrow-Cleansing stage, it did the human body no harm to use the body structures of the ancient supernatural animals, divine beasts and fierce beasts to refine the acupoints, regardless of their powerful Dharma Laksana True Bodies. However, Zhou Bao was unique. He had eaten a whole Zhuyan egg, and thus he could merge Zhuyan into his Demonic Qi and his bloodline. The Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints he had practiced didn’t combine well with his body at all due to Zhuyan, so the demonic spirit he practiced was unsuitable and could not be recognized by his bloodline. Nevertheless, it ultimately activated a certain characteristic in Zhuyan’s bloodline which could devour and refine everything and absorbed all those demonic spirits.

“Damn it. If I want to form the Real Essence, I have to reopen the acupoints and the three acupoints of Zhuyan. Otherwise, no matter how hard I try, the demonic spirit I practice will be absorbed by the body. Only the demonic spirit practiced by the three acupoints of Zhuyan can stay in my body. Even if I had opened the secret acupoints in my body, the demonic spirit will be absorbed as well!” Realizing this fact, Zhou Bao smiled bitterly.

This Zhuyan was indeed a Primordial Fierce Beast which was quite different from others. Normally, the more acupoints one had, the more powerful he would be. However, there were only three acupoints in Zhuyan’s body, namely the upper acupoint, the middle acupoint and the lower acupoint. They were like three Dantian in a human body, according to their positions. In fact, Zhou Bao had already refined these three acupoints, but they had unified with the other nine acupoints and formed a giant Dantian. Therefore, the demonic spirit they practiced had merged with the demonic spirits from other acupoints and at the same time were rejected by Zhuyan’s bloodline.

“I have to separate these three acupoints and other six acupoints and use the other six acupoints as External Elixirs to strengthen my body. As for those three Dantian, they can then be used to evolve the demonic spirit of Primordial Demonic Ape Zhuyan.” However, it didn’t mean that Zhou Bao would able to use the three Dantian all at once.

The information coming from Zhuyan’s bloodline was very basic and did not contain much useful content. There was only the original way of practice of Zhuyan Race, in other words, the basic way of practice in the information. After all, Zhou Bao had only absorbed an egg of Zhuyan rather than a teenage or adult Zhuyan. Although the bloodline of Zhuyan was endowed with the inheritance of the Zhuyan Race, it took time to investigate that inheritance of the Zhuyan Race. It was impossible for each Zhuyan to have mastered everything when it was born. It needed time to grow up and mature steadily, so as to be able to master the Divine Senses and skills of Zhuyan Race. The baby Zhuyan only knew how to practice the three acupoints according to their instinct.

The demonic spirit from these three Dantian was their Natal Demonic Spirit. Different from other demonic spirits which were taken in to strengthen the body, this Natal Demonic Spirit had another name, the Mysterious Divine Light. Just as the Gang Qi of Evil Fire Kylin, it contained an incredible Divine Sense. The so-called incredible Divine Sense was the only Divine Sense of Primordial Demonic Ape Zhuyan which could refine everything to enhance itself.

Now the Divine Sense that Zhou Bao showed was just the beginning-refining the pneuma of the world so as to enhance himself.

In addition, the Mysterious Divine Light was also a high-quality demonic spirit. When it was activated, it was as same as other Real Essence. It was good to use it to activate the secret skills and special techniques.

The secret skills and ways were originally the profound operational ways of the pneuma in the body. Pneuma, Internal Qi, Real Essence and even Dharma power could be used to help to perform the power of the secret skills as long as they complied with the ways of secret skills. The only difference was the degrees of power they had used.

However, the special techniques were different. They needed the Evil Qi of the world to activate their power. That was to say, if one wanted to achieve the special techniques, he needed the original Evil Qi. The special technique was a combination of Evil Qi and the inner pneuma. Yet the Mysterious Divine Light would engulf everything and refine all pneuma. Therefore they were inconsistent. But in the inheritance of Zhuyan’s bloodline, Zhou Bao felt that the Zhuyan Race also possessed a way which was similar to the special techniques. Different from the normal special techniques, when the Mysterious Divine Light was refining the Evil Qi to strengthen itself and enhance its power, the body of Zhuyan should have gained some special power of those Evil Qi. For instance, if he refined a certain amount of Flickering Light Evil Qi, he could easily rip the space apart. Then coordinating the way of Three Realms Division, he could activate the Three Realms Division. Because this capability was possessed by his body, it was easier for him to utilize the special techniques than simply operate the Evil Qi.
