Chapter 57 Battle of Taiqing
"Boom—!!!"
A golden bridge spans the sky, suppressing earth, water, fire, and wind.
The heavens revolve, bearing the power of all realms.
The five-colored light wheel formed from the thirty-six directions of the thousand worlds of Kunpeng and the Taiji Golden Bridge evolved from the Taiji Diagram, the innate treasure of Taiqing Laozi, collided fiercely like two ancient stars colliding!
The void where the two met shattered like a fragile mirror, turning into a pitch-black void. Even the chaotic air currents were instantly crushed, turning into the most primordial nothingness.
The terrifying shockwave spread out as invisible ripples. If it weren't for the Tai Chi diagram holding the area below, the entire coastline of the East China Sea would have been submerged in the aftershocks.
For the first time, a look of horror appeared on Taiqing Laozi's usually calm and composed face.
He felt an immense, indescribable, terrifying weight rebounding from the Tai Chi Golden Bridge, causing his blood and qi to surge.
"How is that possible?!"
A storm raged in Lao Tzu's heart.
The Tai Chi diagram is one of the three treasures created at the beginning of time, a supreme innate treasure!
It possesses the supreme power to pacify earth, water, fire, and wind, and to transform yin and yang and the five elements. In terms of suppressive power, it is the strongest in the primordial world!
But now, in a head-on collision, it has been shaken by Kunpeng's thirty-six worlds?!
Little did he know that Kunpeng's thirty-six Sea-Stabilizing Pearls were already extraordinary.
Imagine that during the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, Zhao Gongming, with only twenty-four Sea-Stabilizing Pearls, was able to defeat the Chan Sect's Vice Leader and guest of Zixiao Palace, Randeng Daoren, so that he was forced to flee in terror. This shows his power.
Now, Kunpeng has not only gathered all thirty-six of the Heavenly Dippers, but has also used his great magical power to create thirty-six worlds within a thousand worlds.
This is already a powerful artifact at the level of a half-step innate supreme treasure!
In terms of pure weight and magical power accumulation, it is in no way inferior to the Tai Chi diagram!
"Laozi, your Tai Chi diagram is nothing special!"
Kunpeng gained the upper hand with a single strike, its fighting spirit soaring.
He let out a long roar, and the Thirty-Six Heavenly Light Wheels behind him spun again, like a giant millstone of heaven and earth, launching a storm of crushing force against the Taiji Golden Bridge!
Laozi's expression was solemn, and he dared not be careless in the slightest.
He threw the carrying pole in his hand, which transformed into a dark yellow dragon that held the golden bridge firmly, while his hand gestures changed rapidly.
"Flame Banner Leaping Off the Ground!"
A crimson command flag embroidered with a flame-shaped Bagua diagram burst forth from the auspicious clouds above his head.
As soon as the flag was unfurled, ten thousand golden lotuses bloomed, and countless strange phenomena appeared. A surge of extremely yang and powerful fire essence erupted, transforming into a sea of fire that scorched the heavens, attempting to ignite the Kunpeng's illusory image of the myriad worlds.
This is the Southern Flag of the Five Banners of the Primordial Heaven, which is mainly for defense and can also control all kinds of fire.
"The Fire and Wind Futon!"
Lao Tzu pointed out again.
The seemingly ordinary futon beneath him suddenly flew out, swelling in the wind to transform into a massive cloud of fire. Wind and fire intertwined on it, evolving into countless wind blades and fire dragons, which, together with the Flame Banner that rose from the ground, attacked Kunpeng from another direction.
"Hmph, more treasures than anything else?"
Upon seeing this, Kunpeng's eyes flashed with disdain.
In terms of wealth, who in this primordial world, apart from the Dao Ancestor who distributed the treasures back then, would dare to claim richness in front of him?
"The fiery red lotus burns away all evil!"
Beneath the Kunpeng's feet, the twelve-grade karmic fire of the Red Lotus surged, transforming into a pillar of fire that shot into the sky, directly clashing with the Southern Bright Fire of the Flame Banner that was lifted off the ground.
Both being sources of fire, the Karmic Fire is even more malevolent, specifically designed to burn away the sins of the primordial spirit, and it actually fought to a standstill with the Flame Banner that rose from the ground.
"The pure white lotus purifies the world!"
At the same time, above Kunpeng's head, the twelve-petaled Pure White Lotus cast down countless rays of purifying divine light, completely obliterating the wind blades and fire dragons that had evolved from the Wind and Fire Futon, making them impossible to get close.
In an instant, precious light soared into the sky above the East Sea, and the laws of nature clashed.
The Tai Chi diagram corresponds to the Thirty-Six Heavens!
The banner of flames rises from the ground, facing the crimson lotus of karma!
A flaming futon faces a pure white lotus!
The two fought head-on to a standstill, neither able to gain the upper hand.
"This...this Kunpeng's foundation is actually this profound?!"
The more I fought, the more terrified I became.
He originally thought that as the head of the Three Pure Ones and having been bestowed with three great treasures, he was invincible among the Quasi-Saints.
Unexpectedly, the quantity and quality of Kunpeng's magical treasures were in no way inferior to his own!
"Laozi, is this all the tricks you've got?"
Kunpeng's patience was gradually wearing thin as he failed to break through the defenses.
He knew that Lao Tzu still had one of his strongest defensive treasures yet to be unleashed.
If we don't force him to reveal all his trump cards today, this battle will be meaningless.
"Since that's the case, then I'll show you what true slaughter is!"
A murderous glint flashed in Kunpeng's eyes, and his aura suddenly changed.
The domineering and powerful aura instantly transformed into a chilling and destructive force!
He loosely clenched his right hand.
"Buzz"
A long spear, entirely black and seemingly capable of swallowing all light, appeared out of thin air in his palm.
God-Slaying Spear!
The moment this spear was unleashed, the world lost its color.
A terrifying and malevolent aura that transcended all laws instantly locked onto the tranquil and inactive primordial spirit of Taiqing Laozi!
"not good!"
Laozi's expression changed drastically, and he felt a chill rush from his tailbone straight to the top of his head.
His detached and detached Daoist heart was now uncontrollably and frantically issuing warnings, as if it would be completely torn apart by this ferocious weapon at any moment!
"Damn it, take this shot!"
Kunpeng gave him no chance to react. Man and spear became one, transforming into a black bolt of destructive lightning. Ignoring the suppression of the Taiji diagram, it directly stabbed towards Laozi's main body!
This shot was incredibly fast and incredibly ruthless!
The spear tip intertwined with the laws of destruction and slaughter, and wherever it passed, even the Tai Chi Golden Bridge showed traces of cracks.
"Heaven and earth were dark and yellow, the universe was vast and boundless!"
"With the pagoda protecting you, you are impervious to all magic!"
At this critical moment of life and death, Lao Tzu dared not hold back in the slightest and roared to the sky.
Above him, amidst the auspicious clouds, a nine-story pagoda, entirely formed from the condensed energy of Xuanhuang merit, suddenly appeared!
As soon as this tower appeared, countless streams of mysterious yellow energy descended, like a waterfall, firmly protecting Laozi within.
It is the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, the number one defensive treasure in the primordial world, transformed from the merit of creating the world!
Standing atop one's head grants innate invincibility!
"clang-!!!"
A terrifying roar shook the chaos, loud enough to tear the eardrums of a quasi-saint.
The tip of the God-Slaying Spear, which was said to specifically injure the primordial spirit of saints, pierced solidly into the hanging Xuanhuang Qi curtain.
"Snap—"
A teeth-grinding cracking sound rang out.
The supposedly invulnerable Xuanhuang Qi barrier was actually pierced with a tiny hole by the terrifying sharpness of the God-Slaying Spear!
Although it was only for a moment, the hole was repaired by the boundless energy of merit.
But the destructive aura that seeped in through the hole still shook Laozi's primordial spirit, and a trace of golden blood spilled from the corner of his mouth!
He's injured!
Even with two supreme innate treasures in hand and the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda protecting him, Taiqing Laozi was actually injured by Kunpeng's spear!
"This—how is this possible?!"
Laozi stared at the wisp of robe on his chest, shattered by the gunfire, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The defenses of the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda have actually been breached?!
Although it was only slightly broken, it was still terrifying!
The ferocity of this god-slaying spear is terrifying to such an extent!
