Chapter 1674 An Opportunity Here
He scanned the area outside the formation with his divine sense and found that there were no fewer than ten Devouring Dao Demon Shadows that were comparable to those in the early stages of the Mahayana realm.
Their scarlet eyes were fixed on the great formation, waiting for it to break so they could swarm it and devour it.
Even with the presence of True Immortal Puppets, Puppet Palaces, and a half-step eighth-order Grand Array, in this perilous place, it seemed to only delay the process of being devoured.
"All laws return to one fluid..."
Zhang Xuan looked inward at this strange object of Dao origin.
“The One Flow of All Laws Contains the Chaotic Great Dao. If we use this to challenge the Devouring Rules of this place, it would be no different from gambling between two extreme rules. If we win, we might tear the rules apart; if we lose, we might accelerate our own Dao's demise, or even trigger an unpredictable storm of rules.” Zhang Xuan weighed the options in his mind.
Just as his mind was tense, about to trigger the unification of all laws into a single flow, he was about to achieve this.
His causal wheel actually detected a very subtle fluctuation, yet completely different from the violent devouring Dao aura emanating from the entire mouth stronghold.
The surrounding void was filled with corrosive, energy-devouring energy, like a swamp.
Hidden within this desolate swamp is a faint, almost imperceptible aura of purification and vitality!
This discovery shocked Zhang Xuanxin to his core!
He immediately restrained his mind from inducing the flow of all laws to one, and the power of the Great Dao of Cause and Effect manifested. Ignoring the pain of being devoured, he locked onto that strange fluctuation.
"That's right... it's the power of purification, though extremely weak, its level is extremely high!"
A brilliant light flashed in Zhang Xuan's eyes.
He recalled that even ordinary people and cultivators, though their mouths possessed the ability to devour, also had saliva and bodily fluids to purify impurities!
"This mouth stronghold, woven with threads of cause and effect, has evolved to such an extent that its core rules may also subtly conform to this principle?"
"That overt devouring is eating, but could this hidden purifying power be the starting point of digestion, the core essence that this giant mouth relies on to transform all things?"
Risks and opportunities coexist!
This hidden purifying power may be the key to this place's destiny!
Just as the eye's stronghold secretes the fountain of life, condensing chaotic Dao crystals.
This mouth stronghold may also give birth to treasures like divine saliva.
We must go down and investigate!
But this decision is equally dangerous.
Leaving the protection of the natural array and venturing deep into this swampy land filled with corrosion and devouring energy is tantamount to deliberately walking into the tiger's mouth.
Moreover, the purifying power is hidden very deeply, and there must be even more terrifying protections or traps around it.
Zhang Xuan was torn, but eventually made up his mind.
"True Immortal Puppet, clear the way!"
Zhang Xuan no longer hesitated; the opportunity was fleeting.
He immediately put away the puppet palace and the half-step eighth-level formation.
More than a dozen demonic figures at the early Mahayana stage rushed forward.
"Blade of Destruction!"
He controlled the True Immortal Puppet and swept across the land.
"boom--"
More than a dozen early-stage Mahayana demonic figures perished under the wrath of Lu Ming!
"This is too powerful!" Zhang Xuan was overjoyed.
This True Immortal Puppet's combat power far exceeds expectations!
Soon, more demonic figures gathered in this direction.
The True Immortal Puppet concentrated its immense immortal energy into its fists and slammed them downwards!
"Boom!"
The body of a true immortal fell to earth like a meteorite, forcefully creating a huge crater below!
At the bottom of the pit was an even more viscous energy swamp, whose corrosive and devouring properties caused the space to emit a hissing sound.
The True Immortal Puppet was the first to leap into the pit, its immortal energy creating a small area to resist the erosion of the surrounding energy.
Zhang Xuan followed closely behind, overlapping with the immortal light domain of the True Immortal Puppet, barely managing to carve out a downward path in this desperate situation.
The deeper you go, the more terrifying the corrosive and devouring power becomes.
The immortal light domain of the True Immortal Puppet continued to shrink.
Zhang Xuan's own Great Dao Domain was compressed to a close-range area, and the Huangji Palace was connected to the Hongmeng River, causing the Hongmeng Purple Qi to be consumed wildly.
At the same time, a large amount of energy was injected into the Hongmeng River.
Since he advanced to the Mahayana stage, his Destiny Palace has leaped and climbed along the Pillar of Life, eventually transforming into the Imperial Palace, which is connected to the Hongmeng River. His Sea of Primordial Qi and Sea of Life have also been completely integrated into this Hongmeng River.
The amount of Primordial Purple Qi extracted from the Primordial River must be matched by the amount of energy injected, in order to maintain the balance of the Great Dao.
If we keep taking from the primordial chaos, the primordial chaos will dry up, and the Great Dao will be cut off.
With the continuous depletion of his inner world, there was not much energy left to supply the Primordial Chaos River.
However, the purification fluctuation he sensed with his divine sense became increasingly clear!
As they descended deeper, the viscous energy swamp began to thin out, replaced by a strange substance called a corrosive fungal carpet.
This fungal carpet was dark purple, its surface covered with countless tiny pores, constantly wriggling, emitting a terrifying aura that eroded and decomposed the laws of the Great Dao.
Even the immortal light of a true immortal puppet was quickly digested upon contact with this fungal carpet.
"This is... the manifestation of the rules of the Great Dao of Devouring?" Zhang Xuan felt a chill run down his spine.
He fully activated the Void Dao Tree, especially the newly acquired Gravity Authority, and set up layers of distorted gravity barriers in front of him.
At the same time, the phantom of the causal wheel appeared behind him, disrupting the direct causal connection between himself and the devouring rules of this place, and reducing the pressure of being locked on.
Once locked onto by the corrosive fungal carpet, the True Immortal Puppet wields its Life-Slaying Blade, severing the threads of cause and effect.
The gravity barrier was constantly collapsing and regenerating under the erosion of the fungal carpet, and a large amount of primordial purple energy was consumed.
After breaking through countless layers of gravity barriers, he finally penetrated the terrifying corrosive fungal carpet.
Suddenly, a breathtaking view opened up before me.
Below was no longer endless darkness or a viscous swamp, but a relatively clean area.
This is a vast filter of Dao principles, composed of countless intricate remnants of laws.
These lingering principles further filter and purify the chaotic energy and fragments of principles that have seeped down from above and have already been partially decomposed by the erosion fungal carpet.
Most of the dross was guided by the lingering influence of these laws to a deeper, more crucial point, where it was ultimately devoured and annihilated.
Only a very small amount of primordial energy and the essence of laws will be intercepted and absorbed by these residual laws.
In the core area of this lingering law, Zhang Xuan saw the opportunity he had been searching for!
A small puddle, about the size of a baby's fist, was a clear, glassy liquid.
It floats quietly in the void, radiating a soft and pure purifying aura. When the corrosive energy around it flows past it, it is as if it has been washed away and completely stripped away and purified!
An extremely rich vitality and purifying Daoist charm emanated from it.
"This... could this be the ultimate purification source refined from the myriad paths of this world? It can be called the Purifying Saliva of Ten Thousand Impurities!" Zhang Xuan was shocked.
The purifying power contained in this item far surpasses any purifying sacred object he knew. It would probably have incredible effects on the Dao injuries, inner demons, and even the accumulated impurities in the cultivation of Mahayana cultivators!
