Chapter 1168 - Dao Infant (1)
"It"s only 600 people. It"s already been a few days, right?"
"Before this, no one has ever entered the Universe Dao World. Is there really a Universe Dao Bead inside?"
"I wonder how the Cosmic Dao Realm will look like after it has truly opened?"
"Tsk tsk, a thousand people …" I wonder how many people will be able to obtain the Heaven and Earth Dao Bead in the end? "
"..."
On the high platform, all sorts of murmurs could be heard from time to time. There were looks of antic.i.p.ation and anxiety on the faces of the crowd, after all, whether or not the "Heaven and Earth Pearl" really existed was still unknown. Even if it did exist, it was not possible for everyone to have a share.
"Hu!"
Another figure flashed out from the arched door. It was a purple-clothed woman with a beautiful face and a graceful figure.
Almost at the same moment he appeared, a suffocating aura came out from his body and quickly engulfed the entire stage. The originally noisy s.p.a.ce immediately became deathly silent. Many people"s minds flashed with a name out of reflex.
Nie Zhitong!
Who else could possibly possess such a terrifying aura among the female cultivators in this "Ancient Realm of Heaven Pa.s.sing" other than Nie Zhitong? She really did come here!
This was normal, as she and Duan Wuya had stayed in the Ancient Regions for more than a thousand years just for the "Heaven and Earth dao pearl".
Now that the entrance to the "Heaven and Earth dao world" had finally opened, how could she give up such an opportunity? She was here, even Duan Wuya would be here soon!
Everyone"s thoughts quickly changed. Whether it was those cultivators who recognized her or those who didn"t, no one dared to make a sound. It was said that this woman"s personality was rather eccentric and violent. If something bad happened to her, the outcome would probably be very tragic. It was better to just keep quiet for now.
"This old freak really came."
At the edge of the stage, Tang Huan, who was surrounded by Shao Yang, Geng Wen, and the others like a crowd of stars, couldn"t help but slightly change his expression, but he was actually not surprised in his heart.
When the arched entrance appeared, Tang Huan had already guessed that Nie Zhitong would definitely enter the third floor as well. When he realized that he could only stay on the platform before the thousand people gathered here, he had a hunch that he would run into Nie Zhitong again. However, he wasn"t worried at all.
Not to mention that Hu Si had already awakened, even if Hu Si was not there, he could still hide in the "Illusory Sword Heavenly Palace".
Although Nie Zhitong was powerful, she couldn"t possibly destroy the Ten Thousand Swords Heavenly Diagram inside the cave. As long as she could make it to the true opening of the "Universe Dao Realm," she wouldn"t have to bother with him.
As Tang Huan thought about it, Nie Zhitong"s gaze also swept across the crowd, as if she was searching for something.
After a while, their four eyes met. Tang Huan grinned, and Nie Zhitong"s gaze immediately became as sharp as a blade. She sneered, "Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you"re really here, give it to me …"
As his body moved, the distance between Nie Zhitong and Tang Huan was already less than ten meters, yet he suddenly stopped. His voice also stopped as his gaze fell on Hu Si who was seated cross-legged opposite of Tang Huan.
Nie Zhitong had already recognized her. This white-clothed girl was the person Tang Huan had brought out from the s.p.a.ce inside the Coiling Dragon Pillar. In the end, the Dao Artifact, Coiled Dragon Pillar, had also merged with her body.
In the period of time she chased Tang Huan, she had always been in deep sleep. Even now, although her eyes were still closed, she had clearly awakened. Nie Zhitong also could not determine the woman"s true age, but the aura that emanated from her body caused her expression to darken.
The aura was faintly discernible and illusory. It was extremely strange and unfathomable.
She had once felt such an aura from a single person.
That was more than a thousand years ago.
At that time, not long after she had entered the Ancient Regions, she had once encountered a powerful expert who had stayed in the Ancient Regions for nearly fifteen hundred years.
It was said that after crossing the divine retribution, the hollow spirits would form back into their bodies and form back into the Dao Nascent Soul. However, there were a few with very high cultivation levels that could form their Dao Nascent Souls before the divine retribution descended. The super expert she had met was exactly the same.
The key to condensing a Nascent Soul is the Law of the Tao.
Over the past thousand years, that supreme expert had long since ascended into the sky. Nie Zhitong had focused on cultivation, and had only just reached the edge of the Soul Formation stage. However, judging from the aura, the white-clothed girl in front of him was most likely a step higher than her. A "Dao Soul" had completely formed.
If that was really the case, then her strength must be extremely tyrannical, and she might not necessarily be her match.
With a quick thought, a trace of fear unconsciously emerged from the bottom of Nie Zhitong"s heart. Her expression also became unsettled, as she stared at Hu Si word by word, "Who are you?"
"How childish, to be able to ask such a question. Of course I"m me!"
Hu Si raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced sideways at Nie Zhitong, as if he was ridiculing her. After the past few days, her emotions had completely calmed down. If no one came to cause trouble, she would not kill them for no reason. However, if there was someone with ill intentions, she would not be soft-hearted.
Just like Nie Zhitong, she recognized her with a single glance.
When she had been carried by Tang Huan, although she had been unconscious, she had actually been immersed in a miraculous state of mind, and knew all the activities happening in the outside world like the back of her hand. Naturally, she also knew that Nie Zhitong had always wanted to kill Tang Huan and s.n.a.t.c.h the "Coiling Dragon Staff" from her body.
It was already considered very good that he had not attacked Nie Zhitong as soon as they had met. Naturally, he would not treat her nicely.
"You …" Nie Zhitong was infuriated as killing intent burst forth from her brows.
"You what you!"
"Since you haven"t even formed your "Dao Nascent", then you"d better be honest. If you dare to bounce around in front of me again, I don"t mind teaching you how to conduct yourself, but I hope that you can bear the cost."
Hearing Hu Si"s words, the people on the high platform immediately burst into an uproar.
Nie Zhitong was the only supreme expert in the entire Ancient Regions who was on par with Duan Wuya. Even though her cultivation was still stuck at the peak of the Void Transformation Stage, an ordinary expert at the peak of the Void Transformation Stage wouldn"t even be able to withstand a single blow from her. From this, it could be seen how powerful she was.
Just what kind of background did this woman in white have? How dare she speak to Nie Zhitong in such a manner two or three times? Was she not afraid that Nie Zhitong would kill her completely out of anger?
This Nie Zhitong was not someone easy to talk to!
However, what happened next made everyone so shocked that their eyeb.a.l.l.s nearly popped out of their sockets. Although Nie Zhitong"s expression was extremely ugly after being scolded by the woman in white, she did not flare up on the spot. Instead, she forced a smile on her face. "Senior"s teachings are correct. Junior will take his leave now!"
