Chapter 1169 - Dao Infant (2)
As expected, Nie Zhitong had retreated!
When she heard him say the two words "Dao Nascent", she knew that he had already fully formed his "Dao Nascent". Not many people in the entire Forging G.o.d Great World knew of this name, as their cultivation did not reach a certain level. They simply could not understand what kind of situation it was.
One of them had a "Dao Nascent Soul", and the other was just about to form a "Dao Nascent Soul." The strength of this was obvious at a glance. If she were to put her life on the line, she might be able to injure her opponent. However, that was all. She would have to pay the price with her own life.
At this point, as long as Nie Zhitong wasn"t stupid, she would know what to do. She would definitely snicker if the other party didn"t mind her chasing after him.
The surrounding people didn"t know why, but they were all at a loss for words.
Even Shao Yang and the other cultivators on the third floor found it hard to conceal the surprise in their eyes.
They had all seen how Lion Source and the others were easily killed by Hu Si, and had also guessed that Nie Zhitong was probably not Hu Si"s match. However, they had never expected that after encountering Hu Si, Nie Zhitong"s performance would be even worse than what they had imagined, like a mouse seeing a cat.
A moment later, under the shocked gazes of the crowd, Nie Zhitong went directly to the back of the arch and sat down in a cross-legged position.
Everyone snapped back to reality as all sorts of questions surfaced in their minds. How big was the gap between Nie Zhitong and that white-clothed woman? Even after being reprimanded in such a way, they could only swallow their anger? What exactly is the "Dao Nascent" the white-robed woman spoke of? Also, what kind of enmity did Nie Zhitong have with that young man who had just reached the Fifth Cycle of the Void Transformation Stage? She actually dared to attack him as soon as they met? What was the relations.h.i.+p between him and the white-clothed woman?
"Master Hu Si, what is a "Dao Nascent"?"
Everyone had their questions, Tang Huan"s heart was also filled with doubts, he could not help but ask. But he condensed his True Essence and directly sent his voice into Hu Si"s ears.
"The embodiment of the hollow spirit is the "Dao Soul"."
Hu Si slightly smiled, "After reaching the peak of the Void Transformation Stage, as long as you can completely comprehend a type of "Law of the Tao," you will be able to obtain enough Law of the Tao energy, and then you will have the chance to condense a "Dao Nascent Soul" before the heavenly tribulation arrives. Otherwise, you can only wait until after the heavenly tribulation."
Hu Si paused for a while, before continuing, "Although I have lost my freedom after being trapped for more than two thousand years, my gains from this are still great. "For example, the Coiling Dragon Staff and the Dao Nascent Soul!"
"The spirit that sealed me is this" Coiling Dragon Staff "artifact."
"For the past two thousand years, the artifact spirit has always wanted to possess me, but unfortunately, he didn"t succeed. As I fought against the artifact spirit, not only did I comprehend the Law of the Tao, I also continuously absorbed the Law of the Tao"s power from the s.p.a.ce inside the "Coiling Dragon Rod" and gradually formed a "Dao Nascent". Only then did I become the host, becoming the owner of the "Coiling Dragon Rod". "Kid, when you rescued me, I was at the critical moment of forming my "Dao Nascent Soul". And when the entrance to the third floor opened, my "Dao Nascent Soul" was completely formed."
"Seems like even without my help, Master Hu Si will be able to escape soon."
Tang Huan suddenly nodded his head. When he saw Hu Si, there was only a bit of the sealing power around her body left, and at that time, she should already be considered the master of the "Coiling Dragon Pillar." Once she had completely condensed the "Dao Nascent Soul", she would probably be able to escape from her confinement.
"Kid, you"re wrong."
Hu Si laughed, "If you had not saved me and kept me by my side, I would have at least needed a hundred years to form my Nascent Soul and escape from my imprisonment."
"Why is that?"
Tang Huan was puzzled.
"Back then, when I was just trapped by the spirit of the "Coiling Dragon Staff" artifact, in order not to be immediately possessed, I had performed a kind of secret soul technique for myself, causing my soul and body to be in an indistinct state. Although I could sense everything happening around me, I still couldn"t awaken it, and even if the "Dao Nascent Soul" was formed, it would still take a very long time to recover."
However, the moment you open the entrance to the third floor of the Tong Tian Tower and the arch is revealed, the tremendous power and powerful aura that erupted out caused both my body and my soul to tremble intensely. The two of them merged back into one body in the shortest amount of time possible and only then were I able to wake up.
"So that"s how it is."
Hearing that, Tang Huan couldn"t help but laugh, this was truly a coincidence.
It was fortunate that this was the case, otherwise, Tang Huan would need to arrange for special people to protect Hu Si when he leaves this "Ancient Clear Heaven Domain".
"Kid, you don"t have to think too much about it right now."
Hu Si looked at Tang Huan, and said slowly, "To condense a "Dao Nascent Soul", one has to be at least at the peak of the Void Transformation Stage, and sometimes it will also depend on luck. In the future, when you exit from the third floor, you can gather more Wind Crystal, Flame Crystal, Thunder Crystal, and Ice Crystal. In the future, if you get lucky, they can also be of use. "
"I see."
"..."
Time pa.s.sed bit by bit, and only after about half a day, another abnormally terrifying aura enveloped the platform. That person was an old man in green, with creamy eyebrows and bright hair. His face was covered in layers of wrinkles, making him look like a piece of old bark that had dried up.
"Patriarch Wuya!" Almost as soon as he appeared, many Void Transformation Stage powerhouses stood up and bowed.
"Duan Wuya?"
Tang Huan"s gaze swept across the old man in green. He only sensed that something was amiss when his eyes flashed, and then, he gave a light nod of his head in realization.
Not only was Duan Wuya"s appearance old, his entire body was filled with a strong sense of dejection.
This meant that his end was near. Void Transformation Stage powerhouses were still far from being able to transcend life and death realms. They were only able to live longer than ordinary people.
For example, if Duan Wuya didn"t ascend to the heavens, he would die of old age in at most three years. This old fellow was obviously unwilling to ascend the sky like this, and did not plan on dying from old age either. He ordered people to collect ice crystals at the entrance of Tong Tian Tower"s second floor, clearly wanting to use those ice crystals to extend his life.
Not only did the ice crystal contain a dense amount of Law of the Tao energy, it also contained a boundless amount of vitality.
Duan Wuya first gave a slight nod to everyone, then turned towards Nie Zhitong. He furrowed his brows, then directly sat down near the arched door, slightly closing his eyes. After a while, he seemed to have sensed something and looked at Tang Huan and her. Doubt appeared in his eyes.
However, after a short moment, Duan Wuya was shocked. He hurriedly retracted his gaze, it was as though someone had stealthily sent him a message.
After Duan Wuya, another six people appeared at almost the exact same time.
It was the six people who came in with Lion Yuan and the others, but were ultimately scared witless by Hu Si. They probably did not know that the "Universe Dao Realm" could be opened by a thousand people, which meant that they felt that after so long, Hu Si and the rest should have left the stage, which was why they entered again.
When they saw the situation inside, they were all stunned, and when they caught a glimpse of Hu Si"s figure, they nearly fainted from fright, and in less than a breath of time, they rushed back into the arch with their fastest speed, and disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this, everyone was baffled.
Tang Huan had also noticed the movements of the few fellows, he only laughed, and did not pay any more attention to them. Unknowingly, several days had pa.s.sed. When two Eight Revolutions Demon Clan entered together, the number of Void Transformation Stage cultivators that gathered on the stage had already reached 999.
