Chapter 216 Inheritance
A slight tremor was heard, and a sword mark appeared on the Purple Bamboo Sword. The five sword forces that were constantly merging and transforming on it collapsed instantly, and Nuwa was temporarily forced back by the endless sword light slashed by Fuxi.
"Is this your life sword art? Copy and sublimate?"
“It should be called the inheritance of life.”
Nuwa looked at the gap that appeared on the Purple Bamboo Sword and said, "One of the essences of life is inheritance. Inheritance is the fusion of the old and the birth of the new."
"So my Life Sword Dao can integrate other sword arts, thus creating a sword art that can restrain all sword arts."
"That's shameless."
Fuxi smiled helplessly. He had been practicing swordsmanship for quite a while. In terms of attainments in swordsmanship, Fuxi believed that he should be able to rank among the top many powerful beings in the prehistoric world.
However, Fuxi had never imagined that Nuwa had created this kind of sword art that could replicate the opponent's sword art and then integrate it and sublimate it into a higher level of sword art.
This kind of swordsmanship is destined to not be able to reach the ultimate swordsmanship. It is naturally impossible to become the source and ancestor of all swordsmanship by only copying other people's swordsmanship.
However, Nuwa herself had never thought about reaching the ultimate level of swordsmanship. She created this swordsmanship only to restrain Fuxi's five sword forces.
The Dongjun Sword was put away. Facing Nuwa's swordsmanship, Fuxi was not sure that he could decide the outcome simply by swordsmanship. After all, swordsmanship was not Fuxi's main discipline.
"You have won the kendo contest, so let's start the second round."
The first of the hundred kings transformed into countless blood lotuses and emerged in the sea. The majestic and mighty essence of his blood blossomed in the countless blood lotuses. Layer after layer of portals to immortality stood and blossomed behind Fuxi, gushing out endless vitality of creation.
All of Fuxi's roots are integrated with the five great wilderness structures in the root cycle. The five great wilderness structures are Fuxi's current body excluding the root cycle.
The Dragon Emperor's body of Fuxi is integrated with the First of a Hundred Kings. The First of a Hundred Kings carries Fuxi's understanding of many great principles such as body, blood, essence, creation, etc. It also integrates the "Theory of Form" which was painstakingly created by Fuxi.
Therefore, Fuxi not only possessed the power of the First of a Hundred Kings, which was comparable to the innate treasure, but he had also perfected all eight methods of "Form Theory" when he merged with the First of a Hundred Kings.
Fuxi stood in the center of the Nine-Layered Gate of Immortality, his whole body glowing with the aura of creation, and he had transformed into a mysterious elixir bead.
The boundless blood light surged, evolving into vast essence, energy and blood. The nine-level portal to immortality rose up, gushing out endless inspiration of creation.
Fuxi's energy continued to rise, and almost in an instant he surpassed the Taiyi realm and entered the Daluo Daojun realm.
Nuwa looked at the rising energy of Fuxi at this time. The golden, jade and bronze pillar that had pierced through Yi Ding's sword energy before reappeared. It looked like a big tiger with two-foot long fur. The pattern of the ferocious beast Taowu with a human face and tiger paws flashed on the bronze pillar.
Nuwa pointed her finger and the ferocious beast Taowu jumped out from the golden, jade and bronze pillar. Although its body of a hundred feet was not huge, the beast's aura was extremely ferocious and violent.
Thousands of living creatures and divine beasts transformed into heavy black shadows and draped over the body of the ferocious beast Taowu. The aura of the ferocious beast Taowu continued to rise, and the originally extremely ferocious aura gradually became peaceful and deep under the cover of countless black shadows.
The golden, jade and copper pillar fell, and thousands of blood lotuses were pierced by the copper pillar. The grand aura that was not weaker than that of an innate treasure caused the countless blood lotuses that evolved before the Hundred Kings to collapse together.
The mighty force that pointed directly at the origin of heaven and earth shattered the blood light raised by the First of Hundred Kings like a broken bamboo. When the copper pillar fell, all the spiritual energy in the vast sea area became still. No matter how the First of Hundred Kings surged or how the blood lotus spread, it could not obtain a single bit of energy from heaven and earth.
"It's not a treasure of the innate treasure."
Fuxi could tell at a glance that the quality and power of Nuwa's gold, jade and bronze pillar was no weaker than that of his predecessor of the hundred kings.
Perhaps in terms of basic potential, the First Among Hundred Kings is better than the Gold, Jade and Bronze Pillars, but the ability of the Gold, Jade and Bronze Pillars to stagnate all the vitality and spiritual power between heaven and earth inevitably causes the power of the First Among Hundred Kings to decline.
"I really don't know how you were able to refine such a treasure."
Fuxi looked at the golden, jade and bronze pillars that pierced through the numerous blood waves, and said with some emotion that he had obtained many opportunities, and finally after integrating the root of reincarnation, he was able to elevate the First of a Hundred Kings to his current level.
Fuxi originally thought that he was the only one in the vast universe who could refine innate treasures with his body, but he didn't expect that Nuwa was no weaker than others in refining treasures.
"You have your chance, and I have mine. I am actually quite surprised. I was thinking of defeating you with my Taowu bronze pillar."
Nuwa also looked with surprise at the First of a Hundred Kings who blocked her Taowu Bronze Pillar, and was also somewhat surprised that Fuxi had upgraded the First of a Hundred Kings to a level that was not inferior to the innate treasure.
In terms of power, her Taowu Bronze Pillar and the Forerunner of a Hundred Kings are on par with each other, but Nuwa can feel that in terms of foundation and quality, Fuxi's Forerunner of a Hundred Kings is better than her Taowu Bronze Pillar.
Nuwa's Taowu Bronze Pillar had taken many means and used the luck and bloodline essence of several large clans to be raised to its current level. Its potential has been exhausted.
However, Fuxi's First of a Hundred Kings has a harmonious and vast aura and infinite power. Obviously, there is still a lot of potential that has not been tapped. In the future, First of a Hundred Kings can go even further.
"If you want to defeat me, it's not possible with just an innate treasure."
Blood ripples appeared under Fuxi's feet, and the might of the first hundred kings fully erupted. A huge blood lotus rose up, holding up the golden, jade and bronze pillars that were falling again.
Dense numbers of mythical beasts, gods and demons emerged from the blood lotus, hundreds of beasts roared, gods and demons sang praises, and in the vast and solemn blood light, countless patterns engraved on the gold, jade and bronze pillars were stimulated and lit up.
As the golden, jade and bronze pillars fell, a huge roc that covered the sky and the sun appeared, with its feathers hanging down from the sky, gathering the wind like ninety thousand rays of light. With a flap of its wings, it tore into pieces all the beasts, gods and demons that evolved from the hundred kings.
The blood lotus blossomed, blood flame rose, and the five-colored Phoenix bird, the first among the hundred kings, with a swan in front and scales behind, a snake neck and a fish tail, able to reach the blessings of heaven, respond to the spirits of the earth, regulate the five tones, and observe the nine virtues, forced the Dapeng bird to retreat with the blazing holy flame of Nirvana.
The phoenix, the king of all birds in the great universe, is like a real dragon that has become the master of scales and armor in the great universe. Among all the flying birds, the phoenix is the undisputed supreme king bird.
The five-colored phoenix cried out, and its clear and melodious cry made the golden feathers of the Roc dim.
As the phoenix energy was suppressed, the Peng bird let out a mournful cry, and the holy flame that rose into the sky engulfed the body of the Peng bird.
The pattern representing the Dapeng bird on the gold, jade and copper pillar slowly dimmed. The next moment, a high-pitched dragon roar was heard, and a majestic real dragon of a vast and pure green color flew out from the purple, gold, jade and copper pillar.
