Chapter 51: Innate Creation Heavy Pupil, the Profound Wonder of Celestial Arts

Deep within the Yuanling Realm.

Chen Daoxuan was unaware of any of this.

He simply merged his mind and consciousness with that Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades, consuming the accumulated Tian Dao Merit to cultivate the Innate Celestial Art 【Innate Creation Celestial Flame】.

……

And as he cultivated this Innate Celestial Art, the 【Innate Creation Celestial Flame】, Chen Daoxuan found it was somewhat different from what he had imagined.

It turned out to be vastly different from cultivating the 【Innate Calamity-Destroying Immortal Thunder】.

When he activated and cultivated it, no Great Dao was involved at all—only Tian Dao Merit was consumed.

Nor was there any fortuitous creation that could accelerate his comprehension of the Great Dao or increase his Primordial Spirit cultivation.

Until ten days later.

As one Tian Dao Merit was completely consumed, one cultivation session of the Innate Creation Celestial Flame was completed.

Across the entire surface of the Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades, azure flames ignited.

And within the Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades, a single Innate Creation Celestial Flame manifested like a pure azure sun.

Taking this Innate Creation Celestial Flame as its foundation, an Innate Divine Prohibition was branded into the Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades.

At that very instant, as the Innate Creation Celestial Flame was mastered and the Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades transformed into an Innate Spirit Treasure, Chen Daoxuan clearly perceived that within his Great Dao Primordial Spirit and Flesh Dharma Body's left eye, a green sun formed from the Innate Creation Celestial Flame simultaneously appeared, merging with his pupil.

Causing his left eye to become a Heavy Pupil radiating azure radiance.

【Innate Creation Heavy Pupil】.

……

In that moment, Chen Daoxuan also vaguely came to know the profound wonders possessed by this 【Innate Creation Celestial Pupil】 of his and by that Innate Divine Prohibition within the Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades.

Among them, the 【Innate Creation Celestial Pupil】 could, through that Innate Creation Celestial Flame, create virtually out of thin air anything he wished to create.

However, at its current stage, this 【Innate Creation Celestial Pupil】 of his did not yet possess such world-creating might.

And it could only be used on himself.

Moreover, each use would consume some of the Creation Force contained within the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil.

This Creation Force could not be restored through normal means—only by using Tian Dao Merit.

……

Nevertheless, sensing the wonders of this current Innate Creation Heavy Pupil, Chen Daoxuan was very satisfied.

Although at this stage, the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil was essentially just a method of using Tian Dao Merit.

It was equivalent to tripling the effectiveness of merit.

For instance, an effect that originally required three portions of merit to achieve.

Now, after the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil produced the same effect, only one portion of merit was needed to replenish the consumption of Creation Force.

One wisp of Creation Force was equivalent to three wisps of merit.

And the Creation Force currently contained within the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil was equivalent to one Tian Dao Merit Cloud.

Once fully consumed, it would require one Tian Dao Merit Cloud to replenish.

This meant that after completing this cultivation session and mastering the Innate Celestial Art 【Innate Creation Celestial Flame】, not only had he suffered no loss of Tian Dao Merit, he had actually gained some.

……

As for that Innate Divine Prohibition within the Twelve-Petal Innate Merit Green Lotus.

It possessed only one kind of profound wonder.

Namely, vaguely and inexorably, it generated Creation Primordial Force.

And this generated Creation Primordial Force had only one effect: replenishing the consumption of the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil.

The function of this Creation Primordial Force perfectly formed a cycle with the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil.

Although in Chen Daoxuan's perception, the speed at which this Innate Divine Prohibition generated Creation Primordial Force was extremely, extremely slow.

In ten years' time, it could barely generate Creation Primordial Force equivalent to one wisp of merit.

It would require thirty thousand years to generate Creation Primordial Force equivalent to one Tian Dao Merit Cloud.

……

In a flash of thought.

Chen Daoxuan used his newly formed Innate Creation Heavy Pupil.

"At the best cost-efficiency, temporarily deepen my perception of the Spatial Great Dao."

Following Chen Daoxuan's will, a wisp of flame-light spread from his left eye, and in an instant pure azure flames enveloped his entire body.

Immediately, Chen Daoxuan clearly perceived that his perception of the Spatial Great Dao had, vaguely, tripled.

However, Chen Daoxuan could also sense that his Innate Creation Heavy Pupil could be maintained for at most a hundred years.

After a hundred years, if there were no Tian Dao Merit or Creation Primordial Force to replenish it, it would completely extinguish.

……

Regarding this, Chen Daoxuan, wielding the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil, shifted his thought once more.

"Increase my perception of the Spatial Great Dao from a temporary threefold boost to ninefold."

And as his thought changed, the azure flames encircling his body flickered slightly, and in an instant Chen Daoxuan perceived the change in his perception of the Spatial Great Dao.

At the same time, Chen Daoxuan also sensed that the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil's sustainable duration had shortened tenfold—it could now only be maintained for ten years.

……

After sensing for a while, Chen Daoxuan ceased using the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil.

He stilled his mind, once again merging his consciousness with the Twelve-Petal Innate Merit Green Lotus.

He began cultivating the Innate Celestial Art 【Innate Creation Celestial Flame】 for a second time.

And only another ten days passed.

Chen Daoxuan completed his second cultivation session.

Within the Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades, based on two Innate Creation Celestial Flames like twin azure suns, two Innate Divine Prohibitions were formed.

In his left eye, that one Innate Creation Heavy Pupil became two azure suns within the pupil, like twin suns running side by side.

This enhancement of the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil merely doubled the Creation Force it contained.

The effect of the Creation Force remained unchanged — still equivalent to using one strand of merit to display the effect of three strands of merit.

……

However, although this second cultivation session showed no change in cultivation time,

the consumption of Tian Dao Merit during this second cultivation session did show a change.

It directly consumed two Tian Dao Merit Clouds.

……

Afterward, Chen Daoxuan began continuing to cultivate the Innate Celestial Art, the Innate Creation Celestial Flame.

Every ten days, Chen Daoxuan could complete one cultivation session, condensing and adding one Innate Divine Prohibition, and the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil would gain one azure sun.

However, as the number of cultivation sessions increased, the Tian Dao Merit Clouds consumed also increased in tandem.

The third cultivation session consumed three Tian Dao Merit Clouds.

The fourth cultivation session consumed four Tian Dao Merit Clouds.

And so on.

……

From the start of cultivating the Innate Creation Celestial Flame, after one hundred and thirty days had passed,

after completing thirteen cultivation sessions, of the full one hundred Tian Dao Merit Clouds, Chen Daoxuan had consumed ninety-one of them.

Thirteen Innate Divine Prohibitions were condensed.

……

And two months ago, when seven Innate Divine Prohibitions had been condensed and seven azure-sun-like celestial flames were stacked within the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil,

the quality of the Innate Creation Force contained within the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil, and the Creation Primordial Force derived from the Innate Lotus of Merit, Twelve Grades, both improved.

The marvel of the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil rose from its original one strand of Creation Force being equivalent to three strands of merit

to one strand of Creation Force being equivalent to four strands of merit.

And Chen Daoxuan understood in his heart: change comes at every seventh — every time seven Innate Divine Prohibitions are condensed and seven celestial-flame azure suns are added to the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil, the quality of the Creation Force would improve once.

When forty-nine Innate Divine Prohibitions are condensed and the Innate Creation Heavy Pupil gathers forty-nine celestial-flame azure suns,

at that time, one strand of Creation Force would be able to display an effect equivalent to ten strands of merit.
