Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 549 - 477: Dao Embodiment Through the Body!

Chapter 549: Chapter 477: Dao Embodiment Through the Body!

Five streams of blue, yellow, red, white, and black transformed into fluttering flags standing behind Zhao Qianqiu, the Five Colors Divine Light flowing in abundance, like the celestial light descending from the Nine Heavens, continuously surging and majestic.

A magnificent Daoist Spirit resembling a peacock stood with wings spread atop his head.

The pervasive power of slaughter intensified, causing the boundless void to quiver slightly.

Summoning the Daoist Spirit signified that Mr. Zhao regarded Qi Xiu as a true opponent, and the ensuing offensive would be even more fierce and domineering.

"Five Colors Divine Light!"

Behind Mr. Zhao, a vast expanse of Five Colors Divine Light suddenly soared, like a boundless tide sweeping down toward heaven and earth.

The dazzling light carried an irresistible majesty, painting the endless sky dome.

It surged towards Qi Xiu like the collapse of heaven and earth!

The surrounding air seemed compressed, and the ground appeared to tremble slightly under this immense power.

Five Colors Divine Light!

The exclusive Dharma Gate of the Great Five Elements Path, it is said that under the Five Elements, nothing can escape its sweep; anything not beyond the Five Elements cannot resist the grasp of this Great Dao power.

Relying on this Five Colors Divine Light, Zhao Qianqiu leaped from a crippled state to become a top-notch Dao Body Realm expert.

This demonstrates the dreadful and formidable nature of this divine marvel.

The vast and boundless Five Colors Divine Light cascaded toward Qi Xiu, with the continuous surging of earth, water, wind, and fire around as if to reshape this world into a new domain.

Haotian Mirror!

Upholding the Haotian Mirror, the pure white mirror light, like a heavenly column, firmly supported the descending Five Colors Divine Light!

Dragon Binding Rope!

Facing such a formidable foe as Zhao Qianqiu, Qi Xiu raised his hand to deploy a supremely powerful trump card, golden light radiating recklessly from his back. Amid a proud dragon’s roar that pierced the heavens and the earth, the Dragon Binding Rope suddenly awoke, unleashing layers of boundless divine might.

Threads of golden light appeared like myriad tiny golden dragons, their tails flicking as they snapped at the descending Five Colors Divine Light with crackling sounds.

"Take it down."

Qi Xiu raised a finger, and the earth trembled suddenly. The revived Dragon Binding Rope emitted a long roar, transforming into overwhelming golden light sweeping towards Zhao Qianqiu.

Narrowing his eyes, Zhao Qianqiu quickly formed several Dharma Seals with his hands, and beneath him, a Five Colors Lotus Platform rose, becoming a solid barrier that warded off all attacks amidst the shift of the Five Elements.

However, while such Five Elements Dharma might efficiently counter ordinary techniques,

it was insufficient against the Dragon Court’s Supreme Treasure, the Dragon Binding Rope.

Smack!

With a crisp explosion, the golden dragon materialized by the Dragon Binding Rope lightly flicked, and the Five Colors Lotus Platform that Zhao Qianqiu had conjured shattered instantly before dispersing as spiritual light vanishing into nothingness.

"What..."

Being taken aback by Qi Xiu possessing such a domineering magical treasure, Zhao Qianqiu waved his grand sleeve, and from within, countless talisman scripts and magic artifacts surged forth endlessly, morphing into various bizarre and resplendent phenomena, aiming to obstruct the Dragon Binding Rope.

Yet all tactics before the Dragon Binding Rope were as fragile as clay chickens and pottery dogs, shattering into oblivion in an instant.

With a sweep of golden light, Zhao Qianqiu was firmly locked in place.

Unfortunately, with my current cultivation, I can only use the Dragon Binding Rope to restrain Zhao Qianqiu and cannot exert its deeper divine marvel to forcibly crush him.

Seeing Zhao Qianqiu restrained by the Dragon Binding Rope, Qi Xiu’s gaze moved slightly. He did not attempt to attack this Mr. Zhao with other methods; instead, he accelerated the circulation of the Power of the Five Elements within his body, channeling the Great Five Elements Path between heaven and earth.

Though he had not yet embodied the Five Elements Dao, with the embryonic form of the Five Elements method within him, Qi Xiu could seemingly sense the magnificent vastness of the Great Five Elements Path.

Similarly, Zhao Qianqiu, separated by tens of thousands of miles, could sense his imminent embodiment of the Five Elements Dao.

At such a close distance, he could also perceive his mastery of the Power of the Great Dao of the Five Elements.

Zhao Qianqiu currently masters two types of the Power of the Great Dao of the Five Elements.

One is his most frequently used Five Colors Divine Light.

This method is extraordinarily overbearing, said to sweep anything within the Five Elements. Once a divine light descends, as long as you have not surpassed the Five Elements, you will be swept into the divine light at his mercy.

And another...

His eyes shone with purple intention, and under the scan of Observing Qi Skill, within Zhao Qianqiu’s flesh lay five pearls resembling the roots of heaven and earth, seated within his limbs and head.

These are the Five Elements Indestructible Spirit Pearls!

Should Zhao Qianqiu’s physical body be damaged, these Five Elements Indestructible Spirit Pearls will immediately draw upon the Power of the Five Elements, repairing him.

Power of the Five Elements, mutually generating and overcoming, relentlessly cycling.

Theoretically, unless a Primordial Spirit True Honor steps in to destroy his Great Dao of the Five Elements, within the Dao Body Realm, no one can annihilate his physical form.

This is the second type of Power of the Great Dao of the Five Elements that he mastered.

Five Elements Immortal Body!

Suppressed by the Dragon Binding Rope, Zhao Qianqiu’s initial astonishment gradually turned calm.

He has the Five Elements Indestructible Spirit Pearls protecting his body, able to survive even a world overturning upheaval.

This junior’s magical treasure is indeed strong.

But what of it, can you still kill this prince?

A magical treasure this powerful surely has many restrictions and limitations; this prince doubts you can continuously mobilize it to suppress me.

And indeed, as Zhao Qianqiu anticipated.

The Dragon Binding Rope, being the Dragon Court’s Supreme Treasure, besides consuming Qi Xiu’s Dao Yuan, also exerted immense pressure on his mind.

If not for his Divine Soul Realm recently breaking into the Pure Yang Realm,

He would not have been able to actively awaken the Dragon Binding Rope to a level capable of suppressing Zhao Qianqiu.

However, Qi Xiu’s summoning of the Dragon Binding Rope to suppress Zhao Qianqiu was not intended to seize this chance to slay him.

It had another purpose!

Qi Xiu cast a deep glance at Zhao Qianqiu, his eyes half-closed, and astonishingly, in front of this Mr. Zhao, he continued to connect with the Great Five Elements Path, preparing to start the Dao Embodiment!

Creaaak—

Slowly clenching his fist, Zhao Qianqiu’s expression remained unchanged, yet inside his heart, a storm was raging.

The next moment!

Qi Xiu raised his hands high, his gaze firm and resolute.

Above the chaotic and hazy sky dome, amidst a thunderous roar, an incomparably large vortex gradually unfolded.

That vortex seemed to connect with an endless void, where the shadow of a Great Dao slowly emerged at its depths.

In an instant, the sky dome began to unleash an endless stream of Dao Light, pouring down like the Milky Way cascading from the Nine Heavens.

It continuously flowed into Qi Xiu’s body below.

He seemed to become a part of heaven and earth, merging with all things of the Dao.

As the radiant light of the Dao incessantly poured in, the enormous vortex gradually turned dark and somber, as if a terrifying beast long asleep was awakening.

An extremely terrifying pressure emanated from it, making all things in heaven and earth tremble.

Strands of thunder, glowing with a five-colored brilliance, roamed within the vortex like mythical dragons, instilling a fearsome dominance.

Feeling the surging power of the Great Dao within him, dazzling lights burst from Qi Xiu’s seven apertures, reflecting the five-colored lightning in the sky.

"The Tribulation of the Dao Embodiment!?

Dare you embody the Dao with your life!

You have a death wish."

Witnessing the Dao Light descending from the sky and merging into Qi Xiu’s body, Zhao Qianqiu spoke in a deep, rebuking tone, seemingly warning him, but laced with hidden resentment.

"I have a death wish, shouldn’t the Prince be happy instead? Why so anxious?"

Noticing the peculiarity in Zhao Qianqiu’s words, Qi Xiu smiled faintly, slowly opening his eyes, where the five divine lights had already converged, as if they were about to form a Daoist Seal. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

In the process of [The Path of Parasitism], cultivators need to merge with the [Dao], then use various methods such as tools, techniques, bodies, and thoughts to transform the Dao they’ve merged and mastered into reality.

Generally, Dao Experts, for the sake of safety, prefer to embody the Dao through tools, techniques, or thoughts.

This way, even if the embodiment fails, there’s no harm to themselves, leaving a room for retreat.

But some gifted and powerful individuals,

choose to embody the Dao directly with themselves, integrating the Power of the Great Dao directly into their bodies, wholly bearing it with their flesh.

This practice is extremely risky; if the embodiment fails, the backlash of the Power of the Great Dao can lead even Dao Experts to death and the dissolution of their Dao.

Moreover, embodying the Dao with oneself invites the tests of heaven and earth.

Which is the so-called Tribulation of the Dao Embodiment!

Thus, very few Dao Experts dare to risk demise by choosing to embody the Dao with themselves.

After all, cultivating the Dao and refining techniques is all about pursuing the Dao Path of longevity.

Nobody would gamble with their life.

However, high risks also mean high rewards.

Though embodying the Dao with oneself has the danger of death and dissolution, if successful, the strength gained from anchoring the Dao within the body is tremendously awe-inspiring.

And right before Qi Xiu’s eyes now, lies a real-life example.

That example is Zhao Qianqiu!

Fully aware of the effects of embodying the Dao with oneself, and considering that the other party embodies the same Great Five Elements Path, Zhao Qianqiu’s eyes turned blood-red with fury at someone touching his forbidden treasure, and waves of murderous intent surged like the tide.

Rumble—

Thunder resounded from the sky dome.

In the blackened and dreary sea of clouds, five-colored lightning wandered among them, like Primordial Azure Dragons swallowing clouds and mist, manifesting a fearsome pressure capable of eradicating all things and grinding down the ages in the Qiankun.

"Finally here..."

Slightly raising his head, gazing at the rolling thunder dragons in the cloud sea, Qi Xiu’s lips slightly curved.

Great Five Elements Heavenly Execution Lightning Tribulation!

Thunder roared, violently and turbulently.

The extremely terrifying pressure caused the void within a thousand miles to tremble faintly, as strands of electric sparks danced about, and the dense aura of the heavenly tribulation filled every inch of space.

Amidst the crushing pressure of a mountain, Qi Xiu rose slowly, his eyes flowing with five-colored divine light, gradually turning to Zhao Qianqiu not far away.

Feeling Qi Xiu’s gaze, Zhao Qianqiu’s sharp instincts prompted a sudden sense of foreboding.

"Prince, look, this is the Great Five Elements Heavenly Execution Lightning Tribulation.

To meet you today is fate, and this humble Daoist wishes to invite you to savor the flavor of this tribulation together.

I wonder, Prince, what do you think?"

Gathering his sleeves, Qi Xiu’s mouth bore a smile, as the increasingly terrifying and surging lightning tribulation above shrouded his face in dark shadows, making him appear extremely menacing.

"What if I refuse, then?"

Staring coldly at Qi Xiu, Zhao Qianqiu responded indifferently.

"Hahaha."

Laughing heartily, Qi Xiu stepped directly towards Zhao Qianqiu:

"That’s not up to you!"

...
