Chapter 170: Absorbing Chaos Killing Qi, Seventh Turn of the Nine Revolutions Mystic Technique!
This time, Chen Ku's Gate of All Mysteries, although it was depicting the scenery of Mount Buzhou's mountainside.
However, upon exiting the Gate of All Mysteries, Chen Ku only then realized that he was actually standing at the foot of Mount Buzhou.
After a brief moment of astonishment, he immediately felt relieved.
"The awe-inspiring pressure of Mount Buzhou remains terrifyingly extreme."
Chen Ku exclaimed in astonishment.
Now Chen Ku's strength has increased enormously.
Yet being in this place, he was still overwhelmed by Mount Buzhou's residual pressure, his heart pounding and scalp tingling.
Likewise, it is precisely because the pressure here is too terrifying that he cannot directly open the Gate of All Mysteries on Mount Buzhou's mountainside.
Immediately afterward, Chen Ku thought of the legends of later generations.
"It's just a pity......"
"This sole Heavenly Pillar, even in the witch-demon Great Calamity, will also split apart and break completely."
He sighed with emotion.
As his words fell, his expression suddenly shifted.
Yeah!
Mount Buzhou is formed from Pangu's spine, and is in no way inferior to any top-tier immortal gold divine metal or innate spiritual treasure, etc.
Moreover, it is guarded by Pangu's residual pressure—how could it possibly break so easily?!
Could it be that Mount Buzhou is "strong on the outside, weak within," actually unable to withstand a single blow?!
Having thought this, Chen Ku hesitated not, directly striking out with a palm that landed on Mount Buzhou.
Boom!
Although heavenly sounds exploded, deafeningly loud, the majestic and vast Mount Buzhou remained unmoving, merely kicking up a cloud of flying sand and stones.
Chen Ku raised his eyebrows.
Although that palm earlier did not employ any great divine ability, relying solely on his physical strength, it was absolutely not to be underestimated.
Obviously, the sturdiness of Mount Buzhou is not as fragile as he had imagined.
"Tathagata Divine Palm!"
Chen Ku, unwilling to give up, directly unleashed this divine ability.
For a moment, legal order intertwined, and immortal light swept like a vast ocean.
A great void hand seal formed, covering the sky and blocking the sun, immense and extraordinarily powerful, it ruthlessly continued to crash down upon Mount Buzhou.
Had this strike hit an ordinary divine peak's immortal veins, it would have reduced them to dust, leaving nothing behind.
Rumble!
But upon striking Mount Buzhou, the massive mountain remained unmoving.
Only the exploding heavenly sound was even more astonishing than before.
"Hiss... Even with my full-powered Tathagata Divine Palm, I cannot harm Mount Buzhou in the slightest."
"Could this really be something a person could break apart?!"
Chen Ku's heart was greatly stirred.
Know that his physical body now can be compared to the Wu Clan, and is not far inferior to the Ancestral Wu.
And in the legends, Gong Gong angrily collided with Mount Buzhou.
Who exactly is Gong Gong?!
He is merely one of the twelve Ancestral Wu of the Wu Clan; in terms of status and cultivation, among the twelve Ancestral Wu, he is not the strongest.
Could Gong Gong possibly have shattered Mount Buzhou?!
Is this not a joke?!
After his own probing, Chen Ku developed great doubts about the authenticity of such legends.
Or perhaps... there is some hidden truth to this?!
Chen Ku fell into deep thought, his expression solemn and reverent.
At the same time, his bodily qi gradually retracted inward.
Having already known Mount Buzhou's strength, there was naturally no need to continue trying.
However, as Chen Ku's breath returned to his body.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a strand of extremely thick killing qi emerged from Mount Buzhou, pervading and sweeping through the void, rushing straight toward Chen Ku.
The killing qi's speed was extremely fast, as if piercing the void, arriving in an instant.
Chen Ku was not panicked either.
His qi and blood surged as he forcibly began to absorb that strand of killing qi into his body.
With the Primordial True Classic within him, the Nine Revolutions Mystic Technique being a part of it, this thick killing qi was an excellent opportunity to temper his fleshly body.
In the next moment, the killing qi entered his body; Chen Ku's divine sense stirred greatly, controlling its fusion into every inch of his flesh, blood, tendons, and bones.
After a moment, his expression shifted again, and he muttered in astonishment:
"This... actually is killing qi from the Chaos era? It contains Chaos rhyme principle?!"
Chen Ku clearly sensed that this strand of killing qi was not born from the Primordial Heaven and Earth.
Rather, it came from an exceedingly ancient Chaos era, containing an ineffable Chaos rhyme principle.
Powerful!
Ferocious!
Each strand caused an astonishing surge of power to erupt within Chen Ku's physical body.
Besides this, by relying on this strand of Chaos Killing Qi, it also caused Chen Ku to produce some kind of resonance in his sea of consciousness.
He suddenly looked toward Mount Buzhou before him, his eyes lighting up.
Under the scrutiny of the Heavenly Eye, Chen Ku faintly saw that within Mount Buzhou there lurked an even more vast and mighty Chaos Killing Qi.
If he could absorb even more, wouldn't he just take off?!
Now, the Nine Revolutions Mystic Technique has been cultivated to the peak of the sixth revolution, and Chen Ku's fleshly body is comparable to a lower-grade Primordial Spirit Treasure.
At this moment, however, it gave him hope of another increase.
Say it, do it!
Chen Ku struck again, and strands of mighty power directly penetrated Mount Buzhou.
Indeed!
Immediately after, large swaths of Chaos Killing Qi burst forth.
Each strand of Chaos Killing Qi weighed over ten thousand jun, pressing the void to roar repeatedly and giving rise to huge spatial ripples.
To ordinary cultivators, this is a tremendous terror, to be avoided at all costs.
After all, even just a single strand is enough to cause an ordinary cultivator's body to explode and their divine sense to be annihilated within it.
The ferocity of Chaos Killing Qi is far beyond what beings of the present age can imagine or compare to.
But seeing this, Chen Ku was as if he had obtained a supreme treasure.
He hesitated not, immediately continuing to swallow strand after strand of Chaos Killing Qi into his body, gradually merging completely.
Instantly, Chen Ku's bones throughout his body crackled.
Within his flesh and blood also emanated a metallic, icy sheen.
His strength surged forward all the way, rising rapidly.
A single punch could shatter a great star, and it was effortless.
At a certain moment, the Nine Revolutions Mystic Technique within his body began to operate on its own.
Chen Ku rejoiced, for this meant he had surpassed the sixth revolution, and this technique had also been cultivated to the level of the seventh revolution.
If compared to spirit treasures, his fleshly body now equaled the grade of a medium-grade Primordial Spirit Treasure.
What concept is this?!
It can be called an existence of an absolute, world-shaking terror level!
Chen Ku himself, at this moment, could almost be regarded as a medium-grade Primordial Spirit Treasure.
If facing an ordinary cultivator of the same realm, a single punch would kill them without doubt, and they would have no chance of even a drop of blood rebirth, let alone retaining their true spirit.
Even if facing Taiyi wielding a Chaos Bell in single combat, Chen Ku would be in no way inferior, having confidence to easily subdue Taiyi.
Having just descended upon Mount Buzhou, this too was an astonishing gain.
This time, Chen Ku finally did not utter a bitter sigh.
After a moment, the aura of the Nine Revolutions Mystic Technique gradually subsided.
Chen Ku also did not think further, raising his head to look at the waist of Mount Buzhou.
He had not forgotten the purpose of this trip, which was to meet Nüwa and intervene in her act of creating humans.
With a great movement of his body, Chen Ku immediately began to climb Mount Buzhou.
Now his cultivation is stronger, and with various spatial body techniques divine abilities aiding him, Chen Ku's speed is no longer what it once was.
He was like a streak of flowing light, crossing the void, continually heading toward the heights of Mount Buzhou.
Even the residual might of Pangu did not greatly diminish his speed.
He arrived at the place where the primordial gourd vine was originally born.
Gazing intently, he indeed saw Nüwa seated cross-legged in the void, forming hand seals and kneading soil to shape various birds, beasts, fish, insects, and so on.
At the same time, Nüwa's beautiful eyes drooped, as if in contemplation, her delicate brows occasionally furrowing, obviously caught in some predicament and confusion.
Seeing this, Chen Ku secretly let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.
It seems Nüwa, although she has comprehended the Way of Creation, has not yet truly stepped onto the path of creating humans.
