Chapter 49

Zhu Qingyun happily stored the giant fish-bird in the Literature Dao Great World, and at this moment Yuan Feng also finally broke through the formation and entered.

However, at this moment Yuan Feng's complexion was very off, not even bothering to fight with Rahu, Zhu Qingyun and the others, as he clutched his abdomen and hurriedly left.

Rahu hurriedly put away the Slaughter Immortal Formation Diagram, fearing Zhu Qingyun would seize it again; this time he no longer had the karma-origin to sever karma.

"Dao brother, this time I was careless."

Rahu took a deep look at the three brothers, then left a sentence before departing as a rainbow.

"However... I remind you, fellow Daoist, your disciple's situation seems not so good!"

"Disciple?"

Zhu Qingyun's heart jolted, and he immediately began calculating the whereabouts of Fuxi and the others.

"Near the Three Immortals Island?"

Zhu Qingyun was anxious; he had let Fuxi and the others return to Myriad Heavens Island, so how could they now be at Three Immortals Island! Furthermore, thinking that Shi Qilin and the other had not given chase, and with Rahu's warning, Zhu Qingyun naturally understood that something must have happened.

It turned out that Zu Long and Shi Qilin saw that they could not catch up, and that Zhu Qingyun and Rahu would inevitably fight over the ownership of the Kunpeng!

The two sides' struggle would not easily decide a winner, so Shi Qilin had an idea and proposed a suggestion to Zu Long.

"Daoist Zu Long, in my view, the struggle between Daoist Tianyun and Daoist Rahu will certainly have a result; why don't we wait by the stump for a rabbit?"

Zu Long heard it and thought it reasonable; since he couldn't catch them, why not wait on the necessary path? Thus, after hearing the suggestion, Zu Long immediately decided to go to Western Mount Sumeru to intercept Rahu!

In Zu Long's view, although the Zhu Qingyun three brothers are strong, the ultimate victor of their struggle should be Rahu!

Having personally experienced the strength of the Zhu Qingyun three brothers, Shi Qilin naturally bet that Zhu Qingyun would be the ultimate victor.

However, unlike Zu Long, Shi Qilin was confident he could deal with the Zhu Qingyun three brothers, but could he not handle Zhu Qingyun, nor Fuxi and the others? Therefore, Shi Qilin planned to seize Fuxi and the others, believing that if Zhu Qingyun truly could seize the Kunpeng's allegiance, he would not abandon his three disciples for a single Kunpeng! Although Fuxi and Nüwa were top-tier great divine abilities of the primordial innate era, the two of them now were only mid-stage Mixed Yuan Golden Immortals—how could they be a match for Shi Qilin? Fortunately, Fuxi had gained some insight into formation arts, and Nüwa had refined the innate treasure, the Creation Linglong Pagoda; thus, although they kept retreating, they gradually approached the area of the Three Immortals Island.

"Nine Heavens Eight Formation Diagram!"

Fuxi's magical power operated at its limit; the treasure map obtained from Mount Yuanjiao was unleashed, and strands of fresh blood flowed from his both hands.

At this moment, Fuxi was severely injured; he was overexerting his Lesser Yang Origin to barely hold on!

Origin damaged—this is an injury that even the Three Lights Divine Water cannot heal! It's unavoidable; without overexerting the origin, how could one, with the cultivation of a mid-stage Mixed Yuan Golden Immortal, block Shi Qilin's advance? "Creation Linglong Pagoda, Creation Martial Way!"

Nüwa also exerted her utmost; the power of creation flowed, revealing part of the innate treasure's might, and she bore part of Shi Qilin's attack! "Ding!"

Shi Qilin, impatient once more, punched the Creation Linglong Pagoda flying, then kicked the diagram that Fuxi had set up.

"Pfft~"

The diagram was overturned, the great formation broken; Fuxi could no longer persist, his origin severely damaged, unable to overexert any further!

Fuxi's body went limp and fell, caught by Ao Tian, who could not help much.

Nüwa's face was full of anger, but the power gap was too great; she had no way to deal with Shi Qilin! "Cough cough…"

At this moment, Fuxi's breath was extremely weak; his Lesser Yang Origin was greatly damaged, and the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao intertwined with his origin gradually drifted away.

Gazing at the Three Immortals Island, near yet like a heavenly chasm, hidden in the void, Fuxi felt somewhat hopeless.

The power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao flowed, and with Fuxi's origin severely damaged, his consciousness gradually sank into slumber.

"Big brother! Big brother!"

Nüwa was extremely anxious; the Great Dao of Creation ran wildly, intending to stabilize Fuxi's origin.

In Fuxi's dazed state, the trajectory of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao's operation gradually changed in his vision; in his haze, he saw the Heaven and Earth Great Dao constantly shifting, the Heaven and Earth Qi continually recombining, gradually forming the likeness of the 'Nine Heavens Eight Formation Diagram'.

"Nine Heavens Eight Formation?"

Fuxi subconsciously voiced his doubt; countless insights surged into his mind, causing his true spirit to gradually regain clarity!

The Heaven and Earth Great Dao descended, and the power of the Great Dao surged into Fuxi's body.

"Heaven and Earth are the Eight Trigrams……"

In a vague, fleeting sense, Fuxi felt he had grasped something.

The power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao drove Shi Qilin and Nüwa et al. back, while Fuxi's figure kept rising, plunging into deep contemplation of the Dao.

Finally, a glimmer of spiritual light appeared, and Fuxi attained enlightenment!

"Hahaha, it's not the Nine Heavens Eight Formation, but the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams!"

Fuxi immersed himself in the joy of comprehending the Dao, laughing wildly to the heavens.

"Boom!"

As Fuxi comprehended the Innate Eight Trigrams, the will of the Heavenly Dao descended, and countless merits poured down upon him—this is the Heavenly Dao's commendation! Moreover, between heaven and earth, the Heaven and Earth Qi was set in motion by the Innate Eight Trigrams.

A huge trigram wheel slowly turned in the air! The Heaven and Earth Qi passed through the trigram wheel, transformed into the Six Unions, became the Five Elements, turned into the Three Powers, returned to Yin and Yang! Finally, after being refined by the Innate Eight Trigrams Diagram, strands of Lesser Yang Qi were generated, absorbed by Fuxi into his body, gently nourishing his origin.

"Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation!"

The 'Nine Heavens Eight Formation Diagram' chart was thrown out by Fuxi, enveloping Nüwa and Ao Tian!

The Heaven and Earth turned; in the next instant, before Shi Qilin could react, he saw the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation envelop the three and lift them to the void above a sea!

Shi Qilin helplessly shook his head.

"Junior, why must you resist?"

Although Fuxi had comprehended the Innate Eight Trigrams, his cultivation had not seen a great increase; Shi Qilin did not believe this could stop him.

Fuxi also did not reply, but with a slight smile, he courteously bowed to Shi Qilin and said.

"Senior Shi Qilin, I naturally am no match for you, but my master has given orders; as the eldest senior brother, before I fall, I cannot allow anyone to harm my younger sister and third junior brother!"

"Heh~"

Shi Qilin gave a light chuckle, stepped into the void, and the sea below exploded; countless aquatic beings were crushed by this compressive force!

In the next instant, Shi Qilin's figure, like an arrow released from a bow, arrived before Fuxi and the others.

Shi Qilin was already somewhat impatient; he extended a palm, transforming into a colossal hand that reached for the three of Fuxi.

As the huge hand drew nearer, Fuxi and Nüwa showed no trace of panic in their eyes; meeting Shi Qilin's gaze, his heart involuntarily tightened.

However, his great strength gave him absolute confidence; he did not choose to suspect ghosts and gods, and the great hand continued to reach for the three.

"Innate……Three Powers!"

Fuxi and Nüwa, hearts in sync, let out a low hum in unison.

Three Immortals Island's Dao-protecting Primordial Three Powers Grand Formation was activated by the two.
