Chapter 1392: Chapter 748: Refining Demon and the Mark
In an instant, countless black demonic thoughts were entwined by the five-colored Thunder Light, melting rapidly like snow in the sunlight, evaporatingâŠ
The areas of black stains quickly shrank, their colors faded, and they completely disappeared.
After a short while, Little Gold suddenly trembled all over, a crack suddenly appearing in its palm, from which a dim âsmokeâ was ejected.
The âsmokeâ twisted into a terrifying ghost face in mid-air, screeching eerily as it attempted to burrow into Zhao Xuanjingâs flesh.
âBoom!â
A series of exceptionally violent purple lightning erupted from the surface of the body, instantly engulfing the remaining âdemonic thoughts.â
The Purple Cloud Divine Thunder possessed the dual destructive power of heavenly tribulation and obliteration, making it impossible for the demonic thoughts to resist, and they were all extinguished into nothingness.
âAhhhâŠâ
The Five Thunder Ring slowly rose, and Little Goldâs face twisted in agony, emitting heart-wrenching screams of pain.
Evidently, even with its rough and thick skin, it almost couldnât withstand the bombardment of the Five Elements Divine Thunder.
At this moment, Little Gold looked like a colorful porcupine, with strands of five-colored thunder threads piercing in and out, covering its entire body with burn marks, and some places were scorched black by electricity.
âIt hurts, it hurts⊠ah!â Little Gold cried miserably, rolling on the ground.
Just as Zhao Sheng was fully retracting the Five Thunder Ring, a large amount of Profound Yellow Earth Qi suddenly surged from the cave mansion floor, pouring into Little Goldâs body, visibly healing its wounds.
The Mountain Dragon was known for its resilience, able to survive even if its flesh were cut into seven or eight pieces.
Thus, a little physical damage was insignificant.
Little Gold quickly recovered, then bounced up from the ground, smiling brightly, and jumped beside Zhao Sheng, hugging his thigh tightly and thanking him loudly.
âHehe, Iâm fine! It didnât hurt at all just now, really!â
âAs long as youâre fine, let go quickly, youâre about to break my leg.â Zhao Sheng gently patted Little Goldâs head, speaking while shifting his gaze toward Zhao Xuanjing.
He saw Zhao Xuanjing closing his eyes again, with the Demon Refining Heart Fire circling around him and drilling into his body through his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, gradually obscuring his entire face and making it somewhat indistinct.
âZhao Xi, quickly help the master! Look how much pain the master is in!â Little Gold was heartbroken, urging while pushing Zhao Sheng with expectation all over his face.
Zhao Sheng shook his head and said calmly, âJing Ancestorâs situation is different from yours. Although demonic thoughts are tribulations, they are also a form of tempering. After this tribulation, his Dao heart and willpower will surely reach a new level. Itâs crucial for his future cultivation!â
Little Gold understood the deep meaning in his words, so it stopped urging and gazed intently at its master, its fists clenched tightly.
Time flew by, and several months passed in a blink.
By this time, no more demonic thoughts emerged from Zhao Xuanjingâs Primordial Spirit, his entire primordial spirit solidified more realistically than before, looking just like a True Immortal, almost indistinguishable from reality.
Suddenly, a loud âboomâ was heard, and Zhao Xuanjingâs primordial spirit burst into a raging flame, a shrill cry of despair echoing from within.
In a moment, the cries abruptly ceased, and the last trace of demonic thoughts was finally refined by the Heart Fire, transforming into âresourcesâ for cultivation.
Zhao Xuanjing slowly opened his eyes, a hundred feet of Divine Light rising around him, and he couldnât help but chant: ââŠif my life is in my hands, only then can I plant a Golden Lotus in fire! Today, my Dao is finally achieved!â
As soon as his voice fell, the Primordial Spirit suddenly turned into a rainbow, merging into his flesh hundreds of feet away.
In the next second, Zhao Xuanjing slowly floated into the air, a bright halo appearing behind his head.
At the center of the halo was a Chaos Vortex, with something seemingly about to emerge from within.
Zhao Xuanjingâs body suddenly descended, his feet lightly touching the ground. The moment he opened his eyes, a harmonious and natural aura radiated from his body.
Seeing this, Zhao Shengâs brow relaxed, a smile surfaced on his face, and an understanding rose in his heart: Jingâer has reached the limit of Returning to Void, about to face the dual trials of the Unification Realm!
Yet these two trials are extremely arduous, described as a hundred deaths to one life!
Zhao Sheng couldnât be sure whether Zhao Xuanjing would successfully establish his Lifebound Cave Heaven or smoothly pass through the Six-Nine Thunder Tribulation to become a transcendent Great Power of the Unification Realm.
Beside him, the Mountain Dragon Little Gold widened its eyes, clapping its hands in celebration: âWonderful! The master has finally broken through his inner barriers and successfully cultivated to the Great Perfection Realm. Nearly ten thousand years of hard cultivation, and today finally sees the Dao Fruit!â
Zhao Xuanjing smiled slightly upon hearing this, took a step, and quietly arrived in front of Zhao Sheng, solemnly bowing to him: âI have turned calamity into blessing this time, thanks largely to your efforts. Please accept my bow!â
Zhao Sheng did not extend his hand to assist, readily accepting the bow.
Zhao Xuanjingâs words were true; his journey to today owed much to Zhao Shengâs great efforts, although Zhao Xuanjing was unaware of it.
Once Zhao Xuanjing finished his courtesy, Zhao Sheng reached out to support him, saying repeatedly it was unnecessary!
After Zhao Xuanjing stood firm again, his expression serious, he slowly opened his palm.
In his palm, a layer of Profound Yellow Light suddenly rose, vaguely revealing a hazy pallid face, flickering and shaking like a candle in the wind, flickering precariously.
âAlas, it seems our strength is insufficient, lacking just a bit!â Zhao Sheng sighed.
He saw at a glance that the pallid face was actually a mark, its origin self-evident.
âYou need not blame yourselfâŠitâs fate, and destinyâŠno one else to blameâŠbut I have no fear in my heart, I doubt it will come. If it does, it will become a grindstone on my cultivation path.â Zhao Xuanjing said lightly to Zhao Sheng.
âThis mark is too weak to affect your Dao heart. Itâs a blessing in disguise!â Zhao Sheng sighed lightly, speaking slowly.
âHeavenly Dao has fifty, but there is only one escapeâŠwhoâs to say this mark might be some opportunity.â Zhao Xuanjing said contemplatively with a hint of thoughtfulness on his face.
