#579 - Double Fate Star, Innate Tai Chi Star Sea
He observed and perceived for a long time, and in the end, he was almost certain that a Millstone of the World had condensed inside his Natal Star at some unknown time. It was very similar to the Millstone of the World he had seen in the Land of Buried Corpses, almost exactly the same!
"What's going on? How could I not know? Could it be that when I was purifying the Dark Curse in the Sea of Souls, the Natal Star was affected by the Millstone of the World, and it automatically copied and evolved a wheel?"
His heart beat fast, and emotions such as shock, excitement, and joy surged into his heart.
He "saw" inside the Natal Star, the Millstone of the World rotating, absorbing the devoured Dark Curse and grinding it. The evil curse will inside was reduced to ashes under the millstone, and then a dark black energy substance flowed out.
That energy substance was incomparably pure, and its energy aura was very peculiar, different from any other energy he possessed.
It was a fundamental difference, incompatible with each other, but not repulsive.
He had a feeling that this dark matter energy did not seem to be able to be transformed into his power, could not be absorbed and utilized by people, and could not be converted into one's own true energy or blood energy.
"Cannot be transformed and absorbed?"
Jun Wuxie thought for a moment, and immediately tried to run the Primordial Golden Body Technique.
He thought that his Natal Star could even obliterate the dark curse will, maybe it could transform this energy?
Sure enough!
As the technique circulated, mysterious runes lit up on the Millstone of the World, and the dark energy ground out immediately became different.
It gave Jun Wuxie a sense of belonging, a feeling that the dark energy already belonged to him, no longer making him feel uncontrollable and unabsorbable as before.
"The Millstone of the World is really too magical. How did I cultivate this Millstone of the World?"
While shocked, Jun Wuxie was also thinking, was it really evolved by the Natal Star itself during those days?
The Natal Star is his natal star within the Blessed Cave, without independent will and thought. Without his control, how could it refer to the Millstone of the World and evolve such a thing?
At this moment, he felt his power was weakening crazily.
Looking at it, it turned out that all the stars in the Blessed Cave were being sucked into the void vortex where the Natal Star was located. They were rapidly disintegrating, turning into gray-black blood energy, and submerging into the Natal Star.
Without the Star Sea, the power would naturally be greatly weakened.
At the same time, the dark curse substance that was invading his body was also being continuously devoured by the Natal Star.
He felt that the inside of the Natal Star was rapidly saturating, and then gradually expanding.
All the energy swallowed inside was constantly compressed and condensed under the terrifying gravity of the Natal Star.
About a few hours passed.
When the Star Sea in the Blessed Cave completely disappeared, the inside of the Natal Star also expanded to its limit.
The next moment, the Natal Star began to spurt!
Rumble!
The Natal Star spurted golden blood energy, shaking the Blessed Cave and causing it to roar non-stop, like a mountain torrent, extremely violent.
Those golden blood energies surged, quickly spreading throughout the Blessed Cave, and then re-condensing into one brilliant star after another.
They were even more dazzling than before!
Jun Wuxie then felt his power was rapidly recovering.
Several days later, the entire Star Sea was completely re-evolved, and vigorous blood energy flowed through his limbs and bones.
Jun Wuxie opened his eyes, stretched his muscles and bones, and felt that every cell in his body was excited.
This was a wonderful feeling full of power!
At this time, there was a bang in the Blessed Cave, as if something had broken through a wall.
In an instant, he felt his power rise again, and a large number of new stars were condensing in the Star Sea.
"Second Transformation of the Saint Realm!"
He took a deep breath, his face full of excitement.
He had accumulated a lot in the Half-Step Saint Realm, and had been forcibly suppressing himself from breaking through.
His injuries were too severe after transcending the tribulation of breaking through to the Saint Realm, and he did not have time to stabilize his realm.
Now that his spirit, energy, and essence had recovered, and his realm had stabilized, his deep accumulation immediately saw results, and he actually directly broke through to the Second Transformation!
Moreover, this momentum did not stop there.
In the Blessed Cave, the number of stars was still increasing crazily.
He looked inside the Blessed Cave, watching the stars condense, and was also shocked.
The appearance of the Star Sea was somewhat different from before. The whole thing looked somewhat like a crescent moon with distorted edges, one end very wide and the other very narrow, even somewhat pointed!
"What's going on?"
He looked at the situation in the Blessed Cave in shock. Even the Natal Star was no longer in the Star Sea!
Previously, the Star Sea surrounded the Natal Star, but now the Star Sea was actually in a separate area?
Just as he was wondering why this was happening, he saw the Natal Star spurt again.
"This is..."
He saw that what the Natal Star spurted out was actually pitch-black energy!
However, this energy was far less abundant than the golden blood energy that had spurted out before.
After the ink-colored energy was spurted out, it connected with the stars evolved from golden blood energy, right next to that Star Sea.
The golden Star Sea and the ink-colored energy, the combination of the two, the picture actually looked like a circle.
Seeing this, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he had an idea.
The Primordial Golden Body Technique began to circulate.
He began to sink his mind completely into the Blessed Cave, trying to control those dark energies and condense them into stars.
As a result, when he tried it, he found that there was no difficulty at all.
Those dark energies could now be completely controlled by him.
So, one black star after another condensed out.
It was just that the amount of dark energy was relatively small, far less than the golden blood energy, and the condensed stars were very sparse.
At this time, Jun Wuxie saw his Natal Star begin to move.
It actually moved to the Star Sea evolved from dark matter, and settled at the wider end of the ink-colored Star Sea. From a distance, it looked a bit like the yin eye in the yin-yang diagram!
"Apart from the Dark Spirits, the energy cultivated by other creatures is all transformed from bright matter. Now, I have dark matter energy, and the two Star Seas are connected, just forming a Tai Chi-like shape. Brightness and darkness embrace each other to form Tai Chi, yin and yang complement each other, and all things are born..."
Jun Wuxie murmured in his heart, his heartbeat gradually accelerating.
"This is the real Tai Chi, the real yin and yang! And the yin and yang power transformed from bright matter in the past has not touched the real essence and truth at all. Only when brightness and darkness coexist, generating and restraining each other, is it the real embrace of yin and yang, a perfect creation!"
Jun Wuxie looked at his Star Sea, which was completely different from before, and he realized that the Star Sea Tai Chi Diagram was not yet complete. It was still missing the most crucial point, which was the yang eye of the fish!
"Can I condense a double Natal Star?"
He thought for a while, his eyes becoming more and more brilliant, and he had an idea in his mind. He immediately put it into action.
He began to condense the second Natal Star, gathering many stars in the golden Star Sea and forcibly fusing and compressing them.
A large number of stars gathered and merged into a huge star.
Then, under his condensing and compressing, the large star began to collapse inward, gradually decreasing in size.
Day after day.
Jun Wuxie was completely immersed in perfecting the Star Sea of the Blessed Cave, forgetting the passage of time.
...
Behind the Zhuxian Sword Sect, still in that pavilion.
Tian Jianyi and the Phoenix Empress sat in front of the bluestone table, looking at the light curtain in the void, which showed the scene in the stone cave under the entire swamp.
"This..."
He and the Phoenix Empress looked at each other, and both saw the disbelief in each other's eyes. That shock was beyond words.
For beings like them, what haven't they seen in their lives?
But this time, it really shocked them immensely. They simply couldn't believe their eyes and perceptions!
"Jianyi, that is the aura of dark matter energy, right?"
The Phoenix Empress even began to doubt herself.
"It should be..."
Tian Jianyi responded like this.
Immediately, the two fell silent.
After a moment, obvious emotional fluctuations emerged on their faces.
"How did he do it? In all the heavens and myriad realms, only the Dark Spirit race can cultivate and control dark matter energy. Other creatures cannot cultivate it at all. He actually cultivated dark energy into his own power?"
The Phoenix Empress murmured.
"I may understand why that person chose him as the inheritor across the ages..." Tian Jianyi said, "That existence is really amazing. A person with an uncertain fate was seen through the future by him across time and space, clearly and plainly..."
"You mean..."
Tian Jianyi nodded: "Do you still remember that some people could not be restrained by Dark Spirits who cultivate dark matter energy back then?"
"Chaotic Body, Primordial Body, Primal Divine Body, Primordial Chaos Body, Primordial Dao Body, etc... All physiques born at the same time as the heavens and the universe..." The Phoenix Empress said here, a look of understanding appeared on her face: "So that's how it is..."
"Although these physiques are not restrained, they cannot cultivate dark energy. It seems that that person created some kind of method back then, and if this method is cultivated by physiques such as the Chaotic Body, it is possible to cultivate dark energy. Since ancient times, although these physiques are extremely rare, some must have appeared in the long years, but that person chose Wuxie!"
"Uncertainty of fate is only one of the reasons. He was robbed of his bones back then, I am afraid that is also a very important factor. That kind of method should be very special, and only the Chaotic Body and Primordial Body that have lost their bloodline may be able to cultivate it successfully."
"That person's strategy covers the past and the present. This move is really brilliant!" The Phoenix Empress exclaimed, and then said: "We have to remind Wuxie in the future, never use dark energy easily, especially in some special areas. In normal times, we must never reveal the aura of dark energy, in case it is sensed by certain existences, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
That one is always that one, forever insurmountable. It was so in the past, and it is so now! Whether in strength or talent, none can match him. Countless powerhouses exhaust their minds researching dark matter and dark spirits, but only that one succeeded…
A look of longing involuntarily appeared in the Phoenix Empress's eyes, and she said, "That one solved this problem. If he were still here, Ruo Wuxie could also reach that height in the future. The two of them could join hands and fight side by side, leading the Heavenly Emperor Realm experts to battle, and perhaps there would be a real chance to fight against the ultimate darkness…"
"Yes, but how difficult is it to reach that step? In endless years, there has only been one like that. Wuxie's path is long and arduous. The future is long, and I hope he can persevere to the end. I fear that when those beings finally notice, even we will find it difficult to protect him…"
"Let's talk about the future when it comes," the Phoenix Empress suddenly became optimistic, "Isn't he still backed by that one's daughter, and another Heavenly Emperor? That Heavenly Emperor's personal bracelet is even on his wrist, so she must value him extremely. It seems that the setup laid down by that kind of existence has subtly influenced our perception, and it is difficult for you and me to see through it."
"Fortunately, I didn't directly interfere in this matter when he finished his tribulation, otherwise he would have missed this opportunity. Our direct intervention is very likely to change his trajectory of fortune, and we must be more cautious in the future."
"Yes, direct intervention is absolutely not allowed. No wonder even that princess didn't appear, presumably she calculated that his fortune and misfortune are intertwined…"
…
Inside the swamp stone cave.
A full two months have passed.
Jun Wuxie, who had been sitting quietly under the stone pillar, suddenly opened his eyes sharply.
With a boom.
Half of his body bloomed with golden blood energy, and half of his body bloomed with inky light. Behind him, a golden and black Taiji diagram emerged, slowly rotating.
"I succeeded. Dual Fate Stars, I now possess a true Innate Taiji Star Sea!"
He muttered to himself, his tone filled with undisguised excitement.
"Just how strong is my current power?"
He gently stretched his arms, and the void collapsed, with torrents of power surging within every inch of his flesh and blood.
His physical body had undergone a significant change. His former golden bones had now become as crystal clear as jade, even smoother than jade!
He examined his realm and the intensity of his talent growth.
His realm remained at the Second Transformation of the Saint Sect. Originally, he should have been able to reach the Third or Fourth Transformation, but because he forcibly condensed the second Fate Star, he exhausted all the energy that could have been used to break through the realm.
"Hmm? My talent growth intensity has actually reached…"
These days, his mind had been focused on condensing the Fate Stars, and he hadn't had time to check his own condition at all.
Now that he looked, he was simply shocked!
His talent growth intensity had actually increased from the previous Sixth Level to Quasi-Ancient Legend Grade!
A full five small levels!
"The Three Realms Great Tribulation should at most increase two small levels. Under the tempering of the tribulation lightning during the tribulation, one small level can be promoted; if one drinks and refines the Tribulation Lightning Liquid, it can be increased by another level. I have not drunk the Tribulation Lightning Liquid, which means that my cultivation of dark energy and the evolution of the Innate Taiji Star Sea directly increased my growth intensity by four small levels!"
He was shocked and excited, feeling as if he were in a dream.
Having reached the Legend Domain, how difficult is it to improve further? He never would have thought that he would have such an opportunity, obtaining great benefits from a desperate situation.
"I wonder if Tian Ming and the others are still guarding outside?"
He glanced at the cave entrance. He couldn't remember how much time had passed. He had been immersed in cultivation and had lost track of time.
Then, he turned his gaze to the evil corpse bound by iron chains in front of him.
The previously terrifying evil corpse was now not only not scary to him, but had become very lovable.
Because he especially liked the dark energy hidden in the corpse's body, he liked it too much.
He now desperately needed dark energy. In the Star Sea of Innate Taiji in his Blessed Land, the side of the star sea belonging to dark energy was too sparse, obviously not very symmetrical with the golden star sea.
