Chapter 1377 - The True Secret
The immense pain tortured Su Zimo repeatedly.
More fresh blood gushed into the pool and the green bones in Su Zimo's body were regenerating new bloodlines continuously. Coupled with the primordial divine spring, his body was being repaired continuously.
The power of a Supreme Dharma Characteristic was way too strong!
Even the Green Lotus True Body could not withstand it!
Su Zimo's consciousness turned hazy and he fainted countless times before being awakened by the immense pain once more.
An unknown period of time passed.
The pain on his body gradually lessened. After his wounds healed, they no longer ruptured and had already become scabs that fell off.
Su Zimo exhaled deeply.
He had finally endured through it.
However, the entire process was way too painful. Even with his immense willpower, he had to faint countless times. If it was anyone else, they would have broken down long ago!
Furthermore, that was only the fusion of two Supreme Dharma Characteristics.
If he wanted to advance to the Conjoint Body realm completely, he would have to fuse a third Supreme Dharma Characteristic!
However, Su Zimo knew very well that his current Green Lotus True Body had already reached its limits after fusing two Supreme Dharma Characteristics.
If he were to forcefully fuse the third Supreme Dharma Characteristic, there was a high chance that the Green Lotus True Body would explode and die!
Su Zimo was fearless and did not hesitate at all.
If he could not fuse with the primordial divine spring today, he would never have a chance to advance to the Conjoint Body realm in the future!
The third Supreme Dharma Characteristic, the Heavenly Fiend Dharma Body!
Su Zimo absorbed the Supreme Dharma Characteristic into his body.
Boom!
A loud bang sounded in Su Zimo's mind!
The next moment, his consciousness seemed to have been peeled out of his body and he could clearly see that the Green Lotus True Body had exploded!
His flesh was ripped off and his organs were crushed, leaving only green bones that were still holding on.
At that moment, cracks appeared on the bones one after another!
The Green Lotus True Body was destroyed!
The injuries he suffered this time round were even more serious than when he was attacked by Di Fan—his entire body almost disappeared.
Under that immense power, the Green Lotus True Body was soon reduced to a skeleton with its life draining rapidly. Even with the primordial divine spring, it was difficult to resurrect it!
The black-haired Essence Spirit was only spared under the protection of the Creation Lotus Platform and the shroud of many resplendent rays of light.
Su Zimo watched everything in a daze with a dim gaze.
Did he fail?
Ever since this Green Lotus True Body cultivated, it had encountered countless dangers. In the end, it was still stuck at the Dharma Characteristic realm and could not attain the Conjoint Body realm.
Of course, Su Zimo was not sad.
After all, he still had his Dragon True Body and his Martial Dao Prime Body.
Furthermore, he had not truly died. At the very least, he retained his Essence Spirit and had a chance to reconstruct his body in the future.
However, it was a pity to lose the Green Lotus True Body.
He watched as a gigantic oval stone danced in the blood mist around the remnant of his bones.
The stone was around the height of a man and it had a rough surface, emanating an ancient aura. There were some mysterious patterns on it that gave off two distinct auras.
It seemed to encompass the concepts of both hardness and softness, Yin and Yang.
When the two ultimate auras made contact with the gigantic stone, an extremely strange power of breathing spread out. It devoured the flesh and essence energy released by the explosion of the Green Lotus True Body in large mouthfuls!
That scene seemed familiar.
However, Su Zimo could not immediately recall where he saw it from.
"To think that there would be such a treasure in the depths of the primordial divine spring."
He thought to himself.
The Creation Lotus Platform floated and the black-haired Essence Spirit sat on it, wanting to close in and take a closer look.
The moment he approached, the stone burst forth with an extremely tremendous lifeforce!
"This…"
Su Zimo was shocked.
He had never seen such a powerful lifeforce even with his Dragon True Body.
Only the Dragon True Body could compare to it!
"It's not a treasure! It's an egg of some sort!"
Su Zimo reacted quickly.
However, he was even more shocked!
What sort of a living being's egg could produce such a powerful lifeforce that even he was shocked!
Most importantly, if no one discovered the secret beneath Beiming Town, it would mean that this gigantic egg had been passed down from the ancient era!
Suddenly, Su Zimo recalled the scene at the Ximen villa.
That was the gigantic demon beast that appeared when Beiming Xue released her Bloodline phenomenon!
A thought flashed through his mind and he had a vague guess.
A Kun egg?
No.
That was unlikely.
Although the Kun race was one of the Primordial Nine Races, their lifespans were similar to the Dragon race. The lifeforce of a mere egg would definitely not be at this level.
Furthermore, the breathing and expiration power of the two extremities of that gigantic egg was way too strong!
If it wasn't a Kun egg, there was only a single possibility.
It was a Kun Peng egg!
It was one of the three primordial taboos, the Kun Peng!
Legend has it that the Kun Peng could turn into fish that was thousands of kilometers long, like a boundless land floating on the ocean.
It could also transform into a bird and spread its wings to travel hundreds of thousands of kilometers in a single fly. Carrying the power of extreme Yin and Yang, it could devour the oceans and soar through the world!
If Su Zimo was not wrong, the two ultimate powers that filled the gigantic egg should be the power of extreme Yin and Yang!
The Kun Peng egg was probably the only thing that could possess such immense vitality!
Prior to this, Su Zimo had some doubts.
Although the primordial divine spring beneath Beiming Town was extremely precious, what did it have to do with Beiming Xue's Bloodline phenomenon?
But now, he understood.
The secret guarded by the Beiming aristocratic family was not the primordial divine spring, but the Kun Peng egg!
Right now, the Kun Peng egg was devouring his blood.
The reason why this scene felt familiar was because when Night Spirit was hatched, a similar situation had occurred.
Although the primordial divine spring had immense vitality, it could only ensure that the Kun Peng egg retained its life.
A large amount of food was required for the Kun Peng to hatch!
That was the reason why the Kun Peng egg would take the initiative to devour Su Zimo's bloodline.
However, the Kun Peng was different from the Hou.
If the Kun Peng's true form was fully released, it would be way too massive. This also meant that its devouring power was extremely strong. The bit of flesh on the Green Lotus True Body was akin to a drop of water in the ocean for it!
The amount of flesh required to hatch this Kun Peng was unimaginable!
Furthermore, given the power of the Kun Peng, even super sects wouldn't be able to provide for it!
Su Zimo's spirit consciousness merely made contact with the Kun Peng egg for a brief moment and he felt that it was boundless like the ocean within!
"This Kun Peng egg is troublesome to deal with as well."
Su Zimo muttered to himself.
If that Kun Peng egg was exposed, it might cause chaos in the entire Tianhuang Mainland. At that time, who knew how many experts it would attract!
Right then, Su Zimo suddenly sensed a change in the green lotus corpse that was initially floating in the depths of the divine spring.
Author's Note: Readers have asked, didn't Zimo cultivate a 99 feet tall Dharma Characteristic? Let me explain here. The 99 feet tall Dharma Characteristic was fused for the purpose of combat, it was not cultivated. Under normal circumstances, he possesses three Supreme Dharma Characteristics.. If need be, he can fuse them into a 99 feet tall Dharma Characteristic for combat.
