Chapter 45: Shi Qilin Bleeds

And upon a single comprehension, he gained extremely deep mastery!

【Organized the gains from the great battle with Hongjun, you gained comprehension of the Sword Dao Law, current mastery, 42%!】

【You used Literature Dao to derive the myriad Daos, used the Sword Dao Law to reverse-derive the Literature Great Dao, the Literature Great Dao gained a slight increase!】

World Power blessed upon the Sword Dao, causing the Immortal Execution Sword Qi's might to reach its peak!

"Slash!"

"Ding!"

Countless sparks burst forth atop the Shi Qilin's single horn, shattered Sword Qi hacked onto the Shi Qilin's body, leaving it instantly drenched in blood!

Fortunately the single horn was the hardest part of the Shi Qilin's body, its hardness comparable to an Innate Supreme Treasure, otherwise it would likely have been annihilated under the Immortal Execution Sword Qi!

"Ao—"

The Shi Qilin cried out in pain, though its horn was indestructible, the sensation of pain could not be immunized! "Courting death!"

The Shi Qilin roared in anger, stomped the earth, countless earth spikes grew out, stabbing toward Zhu Qingyun! This was one of the external manifestations of the Earth Dao, Zhu Qingyun dared not be careless.

"All-Heaven Evasion Formation!"

The Immortal Execution Sword Array transformed, its unparalleled defensive power blocked all the earth spikes! "Hongmeng Measure-Heaven Ruler!"

Zhu Qingyun reached out, the Measure-Heaven Ruler appeared in his hand, then he closed in on the Shi Qilin, directly engaging in close-quarters combat! As an existence whose physical body had achieved Primordial Origin Golden Immortal Peak, the Shi Qilin naturally would not cower, a fierce fist smashed toward Zhu Qingyun's crown!

Fist and ruler collided, the Shi Qilin only felt a tremendous force transmit from the Measure-Heaven Ruler, a heart-piercing pain appeared on its fist! "Crack!"

A crisp sound rang out, the scene the Shi Qilin envisioned of Zhu Qingyun being blasted away did not appear, instead one of its finger bones could not withstand the impact force, and snapped! "How is this possible?!"

The immense pain sobered the Shi Qilin, it could not imagine no matter what, how Zhu Qingyun's Primordial Golden Immortal Late Stage Martial Dao physical body could compare to its own Primordial Golden Immortal Peak-level physical body.

"Again!"

Zhu Qingyun would not give the Shi Qilin a chance to catch its breath, taking advantage of the Shi Qilin not yet having recovered, the Hongmeng Measure-Heaven Ruler turned with the momentum, smashing straight toward the Shi Qilin's forehead! The Shi Qilin subconsciously raised its arm to block before its forehead.

The extended arm emitted another crisp sound under the Hongmeng Measure-Heaven Ruler's smash, no matter how hard the arm bone, it could not be harder than an Innate Supreme Treasure, right?

Immediately, the Shi Qilin's right arm twisted, its tiger's mouth shattered, drops of fresh blood dripped down along the hanging arm.

"Ao—"

The Shi Qilin screamed in pain, its figure retreated at extreme speed, having underestimated Zhu Qingyun, it suffered a huge loss in a single exchange! Somewhat pained, it took out five drops of Three Lights Divine Water and swallowed them, the broken bones reconnected, only the body full of blood silently testified to its miserable state!

On the other side, having lost the Shi Qilin's support, Yuanfeng naturally was no match for Zulong.

Only to see Yuanfeng's right leg trembling slightly, obviously it had just suffered a heavy blow from Zulong! "Daoist friend, still want to fight?"

Zhu Qingyun's voice sounded somewhat weak, but the Shi Qilin treated it as a formidable enemy.

However, by now it had sobered up, naturally knowing the situation was hopeless.

This Tianyun Daoren's growth speed is too terrifying, worthy of being Pangu's successor!

The Shi Qilin naturally attributed it to Pangu.

"How to distribute the Innate Wind Spirit, or, what price does Daoist friend want me to pay?"

Zulong saw that victory and defeat had been decided between Zhu Qingyun and the Shi Qilin, and also stopped to ask.

In his view, he and Zhu Qingyun were of the same camp, naturally he needed to hear Zhu Qingyun's opinion. As for Yuanfeng and the Shi Qilin, just two defeated subordinates!

"Distribute? This Innate Wind Spirit has already born sentience, I instead wish to accept it as a disciple!"

Kunpeng's sentience has been born, it will eventually take form, and later it can create the Monster Script, become the teacher of the Demon Race, it is a natural Literature Dao seedling! Literature Dao is Zhu Qingyun's primary cultivated Great Dao, concerning the Great Dao, Zhu Qingyun cannot yield! "Hm?"

Zulong understood Zhu Qingyun's meaning, Zhu Qingyun and himself were not of the same camp, the ownership of the Innate Wind Spirit, he also wanted to contend! "Daoist friend, so it seems, we cannot avoid a battle!"

Both being Innate Four Spirits taking form, it can be said, whichever Innate Three Clans patriarch obtains the Innate Wind Spirit, devours its origin, will become the victor in the Three Clans decisive battle! Likewise concerning proving the Dao, Zulong naturally also cannot yield! "Fellow Daoists, how could such a lively matter lack this seat?!"

Amidst the tense standoff, a figure arrived at the scene, precisely the Lord of Mount Sumeru, Luo Hou!

Luo Hou had already comprehended the method to open the Heavenly Demon Realm, but the timing was not yet ripe, so he chose to come join the excitement! "Devouring..."

The Devouring Demon God's former identity was Luo Hou's loyal subordinate, Kunpeng obtained the Devouring Dao inheritance, Luo Hou naturally tacitly acknowledged that after Kunpeng's birth it would also be his subordinate.

"Tianyun Daoist friend, the Causality of Dao-questioning between you and me has dissipated?"

Luo Hou asked with a smile, seeing Zhu Qingyun nod, he continued to ask.

【41】 "Then are you willing to make another deal with me? You and I join forces, the Innate Wind Spirit goes to you, the living being formed from the Water Origin accompanying the Devouring Dao goes to me!"

"Then are you willing to make another deal with me? You and I join forces — the Innate Wind Spirit goes to you, the living being formed from the Water Dao origin accompanying the Devouring Dao goes to me!"

Luo Hou naturally also had interest in the Innate Wind Spirit, but he still had the Causality Origin left behind unused.

After the Three Clans patriarchs retreat, he can use this Causality Origin to forcibly wear away the Causality.

Luo Hou in later generations could be called the Demon Ancestor, wielding the Destruction Dao, he was never any kind of benevolent person! "This..."

Zhu Qingyun did not know Luo Hou's thoughts, his heart already weighing pros and cons.

What he wanted was not the Innate Wind Spirit Body, but the Kunpeng formed after combining with the Innate Wind Spirit and taking form! If he only got half, the formed Kunpeng's origin would be greatly damaged, then it would only struggle to raise its own cultivation, would it still have time to create the Monster Script? Would it still be suited to Literature Dao? This result was clearly not what Zhu Qingyun wanted!

Fuxi watching from the side as the scene gradually became chaotic and disorderly, suddenly gained clear realization in his heart!

"Rite, is the tread. Therefore serving the gods brings utmost blessing."

"The use of Rite, harmony is precious."

"Rite, rather than extravagance, better frugality; mourning, rather than ease, better grief."

"The gentleman broadly learns from Literature, restrains himself with Rite, thus can avoid going astray."

"Not learning Rite, nothing to stand on."

Heaven and earth have righteous Qi, mixed and conferred flowing form.

Fuxi in the midst of comprehending the Dao shouted loudly, the Literature Dao's 'Rite' established! "My Literature Dao, shall set the Rite of heaven and earth!"

Countless Haoran Righteous Qi derived, absorbed by Fuxi, strands of Heavenly Dao Merit descended, condensing into a Merit Golden Wheel behind Fuxi's head! After absorbing this boundless Haoran Righteous Qi, Fuxi's aura shook, a strand of Literature Qi sprouted on his body.

Fuxi broke through into Literature Dao Primordial Golden Immortal Middle Stage!

【Literature Dao produces first Primordial Golden Immortal Middle Stage, as the Dao Venerable of Literature you receive feedback, comprehension of Literature Dao increases, current mastery, 74%!】

As the Dao creator, Zhu Qingyun, after Fuxi's Literature Dao cultivation rose, once again gained benefits!
