#609 - Saint Catharsis

Jun Wuxie closed his cave dwelling and focused on cultivation.

He absorbed and refined spiritual energy while simultaneously devouring dark energy to strengthen the Taiji Star Sea, specifically the star sea representing Yin attributes. Only in this way could he maintain the lowest state of Yin-Yang balance. Otherwise, he truly worried that the Yin-Yang balance would be completely broken, leading to certain problems.

The other prodigies also returned to their respective cave dwellings, and Juling Peak quieted down.

Several days passed peacefully like this.

On this day, the Taiji Star Sea within Jun Wuxie's body trembled, golden blood energy erupted, and black light bloomed from within him, one gold and one black, making his state look extremely strange.

His aura increased dramatically at this moment!

Saintly Expanse Realm, Fourth Transformation!

He finally broke through. After days of continuous cultivation, borrowing the pure spiritual energy of Juling Peak and the dark matter energy within the Dark Spirit Body, he finally broke through from the peak of the Saintly Expanse Third Transformation to the Fourth Transformation.

"At this speed, it can be considered very fast, after all, it is within the Saintly Expanse Realm, but compared to directly devouring the energy of a Middle Heavenly Half-Sage to cultivate, it is as slow as a snail..."

He was actually very dissatisfied with this cultivation speed.

It took him seven or eight days to break through from the peak of the Third Transformation to the Fourth Transformation. If it were from the early stage of the Third Transformation to the Fourth Transformation, it would take at least a month.

And this was on the basis that he occupied the best cave dwelling on Juling Peak!

"No, if I continue at this speed, even if the cultivation time remains the same later, it will take nearly a year to reach the Great Perfection of the Saintly Expanse Limit, not to mention breaking into the Half-Sage realm..."

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but frown. There were still several major realms in the Half-Sage realm. How many years would it take to cultivate to the Great Perfection of the Extreme Heavenly position?

At this rate, he really couldn't wait. When would he be able to go to the Upper Realm and help Yao'er reshape her body?

"Fortunately, the Extraterrestrial Ruins are about to open. There should be opportunities to rapidly increase my realm inside. After all, it is a corner that fell from the Upper Realm. There are Saint-level resources inside, and that kind of energy that surpasses the spiritual energy level of this world will definitely allow my realm to advance by leaps and bounds!"

He pondered, recalling what the Great Elder had said.

There are special places in the Extraterrestrial Ruins, and those who aspire to obtain great opportunities will go there to compete. The final victor will obtain some kind of secret technique.

Someone once obtained the Great Sun Fire Calamity Technique!

He had experienced the power of the Great Sun Fire Calamity, which was quite terrifying.

"Great Sun Fire Calamity, there seem to be very few historical records about it. Even if there are, they are formations evolved, not celestial phenomena. What seems to be the problem here?"

He had learned about prehistoric civilization through many ancient books and unofficial histories.

In the brilliant prehistoric civilization, Taoism was extremely prosperous. The Three Disasters and Seven Tribulations originated from Taoism. They subdivided the tribulations they had to experience in the process of cultivation into three major disasters and seven minor calamities.

The Three Disasters and Seven Tribulations were just the Heavenly Dao's test of cultivators who went against the heavens at that time.

But prehistoric civilization was annihilated in the long river of time, and later, this kind of celestial phenomenon no longer appeared.

"Is the current Heavenly Dao different from the prehistoric Heavenly Dao? Prehistoric civilization was annihilated, and even the heavens changed? Speaking of the heavens, the Great Elder's Sky Battle Body actually coincides with the Minor Destiny Technique of the Heavenly Dao's destiny. Is that Sky Battle Body related to the Son of Destiny?"

Jun Wuxie thought a lot. The Heavenly Dao controls the fate of all living beings, and it itself is the carrier of fate. The power of fate is its most basic means. That Sky Battle Body, whose bloodline name is crowned with the name of the Sky, coupled with its secret technique, makes it difficult not to associate it with the Heavenly Dao.

If the Sky Battle Body is truly the Son of Destiny born with the will of Heaven, then it would be justified to have the Destiny Technique, and it would not be surprising to even have the Heavenly Dao Destiny Divine Power.

It's just that the Great Elder never mentioned the Destiny Divine Power, indicating that since ancient times, the Sky Battle Body has not possessed the Destiny Divine Power.

"Perhaps it is due to special reasons such as the suppression of this world that even the Heavenly Dao cannot completely control the fate of all living beings? Otherwise, among the Sons of Destiny, it is impossible that none of them would have a divine power related to destiny, at least the True Son of Destiny should have it, then there should be records in the history of the starry sky, and people like the Great Elder should also know..."

"In any case, that Sky Battle Body should be a formidable enemy, and I must be careful when I encounter him in the future!"

He no longer entangled himself with these things, and looked at the dark star sea of the Taiji Star Sea in his inner vision, and fell into contemplation.

He possessed dark matter energy, but this kind of energy could not be used casually, and there were deep implications involved.

He was worried that if he was careless and targeted by certain beings, it might be very troublesome, even with Ye Qingxue behind him.

"I can't directly use it to fight enemies, but I can't leave it idle for nothing. I have to think of a way to use it..."

He thought for a moment. If he couldn't use it to fight enemies, then how about using it for defense?

As long as he didn't release the dark matter energy, there shouldn't be any problems. Then, is it feasible to directly build a dark matter energy defense network in the body? What would be the effect? I'll know when I try it.

He made a decision in his heart and began to guide the dark matter energy to his limbs and bones, covering every inch of flesh, and then condensed energy under every pore of his body, gradually condensing it into black vortexes.

Gradually, there were dark energy vortexes rotating under every pore of his body. These vortexes could absorb the power acting on his body.

Since dark matter has the characteristic of suppressing bright matter energy, perhaps it can really have a good effect and should be able to wear down part of the attack power.

It took him a whole day to complete these things.

He opened his eyes. According to the time, it was estimated that some prodigies from the five ancient stars had already come out of the Holy Palace. The entire baptism was about to be completed, and the opening time of the Extraterrestrial Ruins was also approaching.

It's just that I don't know whether the Sleeping King of the Tong Sheng Ancient Mansion will arrive before or after the opening of the Extraterrestrial Ruins, as well as the people from the Tower of Wonders.

"What are the Half-Sages of the five ancient stars and the prodigies who have completed the Holy Power baptism doing now?"

Jun Wuxie got up and walked out of the cave dwelling, standing in front of the cave dwelling and overlooking the scenery below Juling Mountain. His divine sense at the peak of the Half-Sage realm spread out, covering the entire Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy.

His divine sense was very strong. Except for a few people like the Great Elder, it was estimated that it would be difficult to detect that someone was spying on the ancient academy.

Soon, his divine sense sensed the aura of the Half-Sages of the five life ancient stars on a certain mountain peak in the ancient academy and heard their conversation.

Although they had set up a barrier, they could not isolate the divine sense of the Half-Sage peak.

It was a quiet courtyard with many buildings inside. In one of the buildings, five Half-Sages gathered together, along with several young men and women.

"In a few days, the Extraterrestrial Ruins will open. You must seize the opportunities inside as much as possible! Try to reduce the possibility of the humans of the Emperor Beginning Star obtaining opportunities! In the past few epochs, they have failed to turn the tables, and we must not let them turn the tables in this life either!"

"Hmm, several talents have emerged from the Emperor Beginning Star in this life. If a Sea Race prodigy had not secretly sought an audience yesterday and detailed what happened before, we would still be kept in the dark!"

"That Chaos Body with the surname Jun is really terrifying! I didn't expect that such a person would appear on the declining Emperor Beginning Star! That Ji Yinlan is also extraordinary, with unfathomable strength. Yan Qingcheng and Mu Yunxi are also extremely talented, and they have all entered the legendary realm. They are formidable enemies of our young prodigies and will be even more formidable enemies in the future!"

"To deal with them, we must break them one by one, otherwise it will be difficult to kill them all in the Extraterrestrial Ruins!" The Half-Sage of the Sun Tree Star looked gloomy and said, "The first one to deal with is that Chaos Body. As long as we make him weak, our prodigies will be able to join forces to kill Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu. As for the other human prodigies, they are not worth worrying about. Even if there are a few outstanding ones, it doesn't matter."

"Liusheng Jun is right." The Half-Sage of Penglai stroked his beard and pondered slightly, saying, "But how to make that Chaos Body weak is probably not so easy. When the Extraterrestrial Ruins open, he and those few women will definitely not be separated, and it will be difficult for our prodigies to find an opportunity to kill him alone."

"What's so difficult about that?" The Half-Sage of the White Elephant Ancient Star pinched the curved mustache on his mouth with two fingers and said confidently, "I have a way, as long as he drinks 'Holy Diarrhea Escape' before entering the Extraterrestrial Ruins, his combat power will definitely drop to less than one-tenth. What suspense is there in killing him then?"

"Bari Daoist, are you talking about the thing refined from the Ganges Poison Source?" A hint of excitement appeared on the face of the Half-Sage of the Annam Ancient Star, "If it is really that thing and you have brought it, then it is really easy to deal with the Chaos Body!"

"That's right, it is."

Bari smiled and nodded.

The other Half-Sages all showed smiles.

There is an eternal river on the White Elephant Ancient Star, which the people there call the Ganges River, but at a certain period, the Ganges River was severely polluted, and the water was mixed with feces and urine. The Ganges River water, which was regarded as sacred, became extremely dirty, especially in a certain area, where a mysterious poison source appeared, and the water quality became extremely terrible.

The people on the White Elephant Ancient Star used it to make medicine, and 'Holy Diarrhea Escape' is its product.

It is said that the power of 'Holy Diarrhea Escape' is terrifying. Although it will not poison people to death, it will cause people's true energy to have diarrhea to the point of exhaustion. It is said that even a saint who drinks it will have to walk by supporting the wall, and the duration of the drug effect lasts for several days, which basically has to be pulled out of shape.

This medicine cannot be regarded as poison. Strictly speaking, it is a laxative, but it is an insoluble laxative. Once it is drunk into the stomach, any means can not resolve the medicinal power. The only way to relieve it is to have crazy diarrhea. When you pull to a certain extent, it will naturally relieve.

"Fire Daoist, this matter is up to you."

The Half-Sages of the Sun Tree, Annam, Penglai, and White Elephant all looked at the Half-Sage of the Firefly Ancient Star.

The Fire Clan of the Firefly Ancient Star, in addition to possessing the bloodline of fire and practicing the fire technique, is also good at soul-snatching. The name Firefly comes from this, and bewilderment is the meaning of bewilderment.

"It's not a problem for this old man to take action, but using Soul Capture directly on a Chaotic Body might be inappropriate, and there's a possibility of failure..."

"Of course, we can't directly target him; we have to start with the people around him. Ji Yinlan, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi, and Yan Ruyu are definitely out of the question. The Chaotic Body pays too much attention to them, making it difficult to succeed."

The half-sage of the Rising Sun Star thought for a moment and said, "In my opinion, that woman named Xu Yan'ning is very suitable."

"Xu Yan'ning..."

Several half-sages began to discuss.

"That's a good target. The Chaotic Body's relationship with her isn't too deep or too shallow. He usually doesn't pay much attention to her, making it easier for us to succeed. When the time comes, we can have Xu Yan'ning serve tea and let the Chaotic Body drink 'Saint's Laxative.' I think it should go smoothly."

"Well, they have some friendship. Although it might seem a bit abrupt for Xu Yan'ning to personally serve tea, the Chaotic Body definitely won't think too much about it and will surely drink it. Even if he realizes something is wrong afterward, it will be too late."

"Then it's settled. Xu Yan'ning is the target!" The half-sage of the Rising Sun Ancient Star said, "We'll keep a close watch on Spirit Gathering Peak. When Xu Yan'ning comes out of her cave, and the Chaotic Body happens to be in the cave, we'll lure that woman out of Spirit Gathering Peak. At that time, Fellow Daoist Huo will step forward and use Soul Capture to control her consciousness!"

"Fellow Daoist Bali, this matter must not be taken lightly. It is said that this kid's life is full of legends, and he can always turn danger into safety. This time, you can't be stingy with the dosage of 'Saint's Laxative.' You must double and redouble the dose to ensure that there are no accidents!" Half-Sage Ruan from the An'nan Ancient Star said.

"Don't worry, this old man brought a bottle with ten drops in total. One drop is the normal dosage. When the time comes, I'll use ten drops. Even a saint would suffer from severe diarrhea, hahaha!"

...

The half-sages from the five ancient life stars smiled and discussed a plan to deal with Jun Wuxie and others, all full of confidence.

At Spirit Gathering Peak, Jun Wuxie stood in front of his cave, looking at the magnificent mountains and rivers, his lips twitching slightly.

He really didn't expect that it was just a whim to see what the people from those ancient stars were doing, whether they were secretly discussing how to deal with him.

But it turned out to be true. He actually heard them plotting such despicable means.

They actually wanted to use laxatives on him?

This group of people is too despicable and shameless. Knowing that their geniuses are no match, they resort to such underhanded methods.

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but ponder how to turn the tables and make those people suffer the consequences themselves.

Just then, a figure appeared in the sky and landed beside him.

"Ninth Elder? Why are you here? Is something the matter?"

He welcomed the Ninth Elder into the cave.

"I'm here to bring you something. We've produced the first batch of rune communicators."

The Ninth Elder placed a palm-sized jade object in front of him.

It was just a rectangular piece of jade, but its surface and interior were covered with interstellar communication runes.

"The usage is very simple. You penetrate your mind into it, and all the functions and how to use it will become clear. With it, you can learn about certain things outside the domain, as long as someone records the event and transmits it to the interstellar rune main system, anyone using communicators in the starry sky can view it. Study it carefully yourself."

The Ninth Elder patted him on the shoulder, walked to the door, and suddenly turned around, saying, "By the way, the people from the Tong Sheng Ancient Mansion will arrive here tomorrow. The leader is an elder at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Position, known as the Sleeping King. Tomorrow, you stay in the cave and don't come out. This way, he won't be able to figure out the number of our ancient academy's top young geniuses. When negotiating the rules for the Heavenly Position battle, we won't be at a disadvantage."

Jun Wuxie nodded, watching the Ninth Elder leave, his thoughts becoming active.

The Sleeping King Elder from the Tong Sheng Ancient Mansion is coming to negotiate?

He didn't expect them to arrive so quickly, tomorrow already.

"They came at the right time. Those guys want to scheme against me, and I can just borrow 'Saint's Laxative' for a while..."

As Jun Wuxie thought, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.
