Chapter 40: Innate Divine Prohibition, Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil

……

Seeing that wisp of grayish mist-like thunder manifest, Chen Daoxuan felt a surge of joy in his heart.

A strand of Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder origin had successfully condensed.

It looked utterly ordinary.

But in Chen Daoxuan's perception, it contained a resonance capable of destroying everything.

In terms of level, it seemed on par with immortal power.

Matching the immortal resonance he had sensed when seeing the spirit of the Immortal Artifact.

Both were unfathomably deep, as if transcending time and space.

……

However, Chen Daoxuan only sensed it for a few breaths before gathering his thoughts and continuing to circulate the Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder method.

Immediately, the Innate Gourd absorbed this strand of Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder origin.

In an instant, the entire Innate Gourd radiated a grayish mist-like thunder-light.

Within the Innate Gourd, a Innate Prohibition began to manifest and take form.

The innate spirituality contained within the Innate Gourd boiled slightly, and in a flash, merged into that Innate Prohibition.

Spirit Prohibition, Divine Prohibition, True Prohibition…

Corresponding to Numinous Treasure, Spirit Treasure, True Treasure…

The Innate Prohibition currently being refined, in Chen Daoxuan's perception, was a Divine Prohibition.

Once the Divine Prohibition was formed, it also signified that the Innate Gourd had become an innate Spirit Treasure belonging to the Innate category.

……

And the moment the Innate Gourd refined a Innate Divine Prohibition and became an innate Spirit Treasure—

Before Chen Daoxuan could even fully comprehend the mysteries of that Innate Divine Prohibition in the Innate Gourd, he sensed his Great Dao Primordial Spirit and Flesh Dharma Body.

Within his right eye, a gray Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Seed suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Like the True Mountain and Mysterious Sea condensed by the Mountains and Seas Immortal Scripture, the two were as one.

The Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Seed existed simultaneously upon the Great Dao Primordial Spirit and the Flesh Dharma Body.

In the blink of an eye, this Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Seed began to merge as one with his right eye.

In a flash, Chen Daoxuan sensed that with this fusion, his Great Dao Primordial Spirit, Flesh Dharma Body, True Mountain, Mysterious Sea, and even the condensed Dharma Aspect—

Were all mysteriously receiving a certain profound baptism.

……

With the profound baptism, Chen Daoxuan's entire Great Dao Primordial Spirit and Flesh Dharma Body radiated a wisp of grayish mist-like thunder-light, spreading across a Ten Zhang radius around him.

Wherever the gray thunder-light flickered, everything was destroyed.

The Ten Zhang radius region he occupied sank into a void within a few breaths.

Including the Ten Zhang of space itself, which was utterly destroyed.

……

Until half an hour later, as the baptism completed, the gray thunder-light flickering around him finally receded and vanished.

The destroyed Ten Zhang of space only then began to recover.

He opened his eyes.

Chen Daoxuan's expression was unreadable.

He could sense that within the black pupil of his right eye, a ring of gray thunder-patterns was branded.

Causing his right eye to transform into a double pupil.

And he knew it with divine clarity.

His right eye had now become an Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil.

Every year, his right eye could condense a strand of Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder.

It could accumulate up to ten strands of Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder.

This Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil was also the key to his use of the Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder.

Only through this Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil could he freely wield and control the Immortal Thunder without himself being harmed by the Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder.

Otherwise, if he used the Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder through other means, he would have to endure a strike of Immortal Thunder harm upon himself before using it.

……

The instant Chen Daoxuan's right eye merged with the Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Seed and achieved that Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil—

Deep within the Shanhai Star, which had an Eighty Million Li Diameter—

Through layers of dimensions and Immeasurable time-space—

Within an ordinary-looking dimension—

A scroll of the Mountains and Seas Diagram unfurled, and a supreme will, vast and boundless, with immortal Dao Aura flowing, revived.

"Mm, there's the Aura of an Innate Celestial Art."

"Is it that a junior within the sect has obtained an Innate Object, or is it some lucky soul outside the sect?"

In a thought, the Mountains and Seas Diagram emitted immortal light.

In an instant, based on the sensed fluctuation of that Innate Celestial Art, it searched through heaven and locked upon earth, encompassing the Hundred Billion Light Years of Shanhai Jietian.

In a breath, it saw a wisp of Gray Thunder and sensed its tight connection to the sect's fortune.

Just as it was preparing to continue its search, the shadow of a Four Spirits Immortal Diagram appeared out of thin air.

Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise—the four spirits' immortal light bloomed, blocking and disrupting its sensing search.

Seeing this, the vast will flowing with immortal Dao Aura did not press further.

"The Four Spirits Immortal Diagram is blocking the way — is it a Secret Inheritance Disciple of the sect, or a Reserve Dao Child, a Dao Child, or someone from the hidden lineage?"

As his thoughts flowed, he sensed the Immortal Tribulation stirring vaguely in the unseen, and it sank back into slumber once more, leaving only a wisp of intent drifting through this dimension.

"Since the sect has worthy successors, I can also stake everything on one throw."

……

Inside the Cuivei Immortal Mansion.

After Chen Daoxuan came to understand that Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil.

He also sensed the Great Dao Primordial Spirit, the Flesh Dharma Body, and the Dharma Aspect, and other aspects, after receiving the baptism.

But after carefully perceiving them for half a moment, Chen Daoxuan discovered no change whatsoever.

Regarding this, Chen Daoxuan pondered briefly; after some guesses formed in his heart, he did not continue to think on it.

Instead, with a shift of thought, that Innate Gourd appeared in his hand.

He focused his spirit and calmed his breath, beginning to sense and commune with this Innate Gourd Spirit Treasure, which had formed a destiny-bond connection with him in the unseen.

And Primordial Spirit Dharma Power surged into it, beginning to refine that one Innate Divine Prohibition.

Before condensing the Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil, in truth, Chen Daoxuan had no binding power over this Innate Gourd at all.

He had merely been chosen by the Innate Gourd, but if the Innate Gourd wished to leave, it could do so at any time.

And now, after smoothly cultivating one strand of Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder, his right eye had transformed into an Innate Calamity-Destroying Thunder Pupil.

And in the unseen, he had gained a mysterious controlling power over the Innate Gourd.

Between him and the Innate Gourd, there existed a mysterious connection of mutual complement, sharing in glory and sharing in ruin.

As Primordial Spirit Dharma Power surged into it, in less than half a quarter-hour, Chen Daoxuan naturally and effortlessly completed the refinement of that one Innate Divine Prohibition.

……

The instant the refinement was completed, Chen Daoxuan naturally came to know the mysteries possessed by this Innate Divine Prohibition.

It possessed three mysteries in total: Condensing, Containing, and Empowering.

Among them, the Condensing mystery was like Chen Daoxuan's right eye — every year, it could condense one strand of Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder.

And the Containing mystery was like a thunder pool, capable of containing Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder.

In Chen Daoxuan's perception, this containing had no limit — the more, the better.

And the Empowering mystery empowered the Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder, raising the Immortal Thunder's might.

……

Of the three mysteries of this Divine Prohibition, what Chen Daoxuan valued most was the Containing mystery.

With this mystery, it meant that even the two strands of Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder produced each year by his right eye and the Innate Gourd combined would not be wasted.

And even if he were not gathering the Heaven-Earth-Man three-talents killing opportunities, not cultivating, not raising the Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder.

As the accumulated Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder increased in quantity, it could still possess supreme might.

……
