Chapter 578

"The path of reincarnation has broken through to the Hunyuan layer? Good, good—none of my efforts have been in vain."

Seeing Sister Pingxin successfully break through, Luo Fu nodded in satisfaction.

Originally, Sister Pingxin's understanding of the path of reincarnation had already reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm.

Now, with the aid of many factors, her breakthrough to the Hunyuan layer was no surprise to him.

When Luo Fu first arrived in the Journey to the West World, he had no roots there at all.

Now that Sister Pingxin has successfully broken through to the Hunyuan layer, combined with the perfected Earth Path,

it counts as a considerable advantage even for Luo Fu at his current stage.

After the path of reincarnation broke through to the Hunyuan realm, Sister Pingxin did not exit her state of enlightenment.

Behind her, the illusory Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc gradually shrank, finally dissolving into her eyes and vanishing.

With the disappearance of the illusory Six Paths of Reincarnation Disc, the Dao patterns of reincarnation on Sister Pingxin's body began to fade.

In their place appeared Dao patterns of the Earth Path, a yellow-brown hue.

With the aid of many factors, Sister Pingxin's comprehension of the Great Dao was rapidly rising.

Yet, her understanding of the Earth Path stalled once it reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm.

Over these years, Sister Pingxin had devoted nearly all her energy to comprehending the path of reincarnation, maintaining the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and had barely cultivated the Earth Path.

Moreover, Sister Pingxin was not Houtu.

Compared to Houtu, Sister Pingxin was actually more attuned to the path of reincarnation.

Though she failed to further break through in the Earth Path, Sister Pingxin showed no disappointment—she continued her cultivation of the Earth Path as before.

Slowly, countless yellow-brown qi currents began to coalesce around Sister Pingxin in the Primordial World.

These yellow-brown qi currents accumulated more and more, soon rising to several zhang in height.

At that moment, a red pearl suddenly flew out from within Sister Pingxin and sank into the yellow-brown qi currents.

"So she's planning this—it seems Pingxin still harbors unresolved grievances over the defeat of the Wu Clan!"

Sister Pingxin's intentions naturally could not escape Luo Fu's notice.

With just one glance, Luo Fu guessed her plan.

"If that's the case, I'll lend you a hand—Woxuan Zaohua, Fanben Guiyuan!"

Luo Fu waved his right hand, and a force of Creation immediately flowed into the red pearl Sister Pingxin had summoned.

This pearl was a drop of blood essence.

Taking advantage of her state of enlightenment, Sister Pingxin intended to use the Earth Path to resurrect the owner of the blood essence.

Once the blood essence sank into the yellow-brown qi currents, the qi immediately began coalescing and shaping around it as a core.

After several breaths, the yellow-brown qi currents finally formed a human shape.

Unfortunately, even with the blood essence added, the yellow-brown qi currents could not form a flesh-and-blood body—they formed instead a divine body resembling a primordial deity.

The Earth Path is ultimately not the Path of Creation.

Moreover, Sister Pingxin did not seek to form an ordinary body—even if the Path of Creation were employed, insufficient comprehension would make it nearly impossible.

Luo Fu's comprehension of the Path of Creation was clearly sufficient.

Just as Sister Pingxin believed failure was inevitable, the Creation force Luo Fu had infused into the blood essence began to activate.

The body formed by the power of Earth began to transform from within outward.

In an instant, a complete flesh-and-blood body appeared before Sister Pingxin.

Seeing this, Sister Pingxin's eyes flickered with surprise; without hesitation, she tore her Primordial Spirit violently in two.

Instantly, searing agony swept through her entire spirit.

Suppressing the pain, she sent half of her Primordial Spirit into the newly formed body.

The one Sister Pingxin wished to resurrect was no one else.

It was herself—more precisely, her original body, Houtu, the Ancestral Wu.

Shu!

Luo Fu raised his right hand and swept it gently toward Sister Pingxin and the newly formed Houtu; two green lights entered their bodies respectively.

The agony from tearing her Primordial Spirit was instantly erased by the green light.

With the green light's aid, the half of her Primordial Spirit she had torn off successfully took possession of the newly formed body.

After fully occupying the new body, both Sister Pingxin and Houtu opened their eyes simultaneously.

Two identical palace-dressed women appeared before Luo Fu.

The only difference was that one was serene and compassionate, the other heavy and mighty.

"Greetings, Daoist friend. Thank you for your aid—your great kindness, Pingxin will never forget."

"Greetings, Daoist friend. Thank you for your aid—your great kindness, Houtu will never forget."

Both spoke at once, in unison, thanking Luo Fu.
