Chapter 2043 The Soul Refining Emperor [5,000 words]
If he could obtain this Xuanwu Armor and Chen Nianzhi could cultivate the second True Spirit Divine Mark, his combat power would definitely be greatly improved.
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi couldn't help but nodded and said: "As entrusted by my seniors, I naturally have to handle the matter to the end."
"It's just this Xuanwu Armor, can you give it to me in advance?"
The immortal old man smiled, and then said: "This is natural. If you refine this Xuanwu Armor, your strength should be improved."
With that said, the Immortal Old Man handed the Xuanwu Armor to Chen Nianzhidao: "I will be in seclusion for fifty kalpas, and I will not leave seclusion until I recover my sub-sage cultivation. I will leave it to you during this time."
"Remember, if it's not the most critical moment, you must not interrupt my exit."
Chen Nianzhi nodded, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "It's just that the Immortal Primitive Domain still needs you to say hello."
The immortal old man nodded, summoned the three great emperors Tai Ming, Jie Guang, and Qing Xiao, and then said in front of everyone: "I need to be in seclusion for fifty kalpas."
"Most of the blood traitors are still evil and may invite people from the devil's way to invade."
"Fellow Taoist Guixu is the strong man I invited to fight against the rebels of the Blood Sea. During this period of time, all matters related to the Immortal Primitive Domain will be left to Friend Guixu to take charge. The three of you will need more help."
When the three great emperors heard this, although they had some doubts in their hearts, they did not dare to disobey the immortal old man's opinion.
After all, the Immortal Old Man is an invincible sub-sage. He has even defeated ten sub-sages working together, and even faced the Emperor of Chaos with all his strength and was undefeated.
You must know that the Immortal Old Man's nine true spirit forms are all defensive types, and his attack methods are his weaknesses. In this way, he can defeat ten sub-sages, which shows how invincible the physical body is to become a saint.
"We obey."
The three great emperors bowed in salute and immediately approved the appointment of the Immortal Old Man.
The immortal old man said nothing more, just waved his hand and sent the three of them out of the hall.
After leaving the main hall, the three emperors bowed their hands to Chen Nianzhi and said: "I have met fellow Taoist Guixu, and thanks to your help this time, we may be in big trouble."
"No need to be polite, I am also entrusted by Senior Immortal."
Chen Nianzhi smiled, and then said solemnly: "Senior Immortal and I have calculated that if nothing unexpected happens, the Blood Sea Ancestor will definitely attack."
"And in this battle, he will definitely find an invincible emperor to help him."
"You need to repair the world formation immediately and prepare for the war. I won't get involved in this."
When the three of them heard this, they immediately left with solemn expressions.
After the three great emperors left, Chen Nianzhi thought about it and felt that this battle needed to be treated with caution.
"When a lion fights a rabbit, you must go all out."
"The Blood Sea Ancestor takes action. Since the crisis in the Immortal Primitive Realm may be my opportunity, since I have intervened in this battle, I must go all out."
Thoughts flashed in Chen Nianzhi's heart, and he left a message to inform the three of them that he was going to the depths of chaos to find helpers, and then left the Immortal Primitive Realm.
After leaving the Immortal Primitive Realm, he immediately gained strength with the help of the Guixu Bead and escaped to the unknown space. When he reappeared, he was already in the bottomless abyss of the Great Wilderness Ancient World.
He came to the Great Wilderness Temple and summoned all the powerful late Hunyuan Emperors under his command.
In the main hall, Chen Nianzhi told everyone the whole story, and then said: "This battle is quite dangerous, but it is also our opportunity."
"Once the immortal old man recovers and we take down either the Blood Sea Emperor or the Soul Refining Emperor, we will probably get several valuable harvests."
When everyone heard this, their expressions were extremely solemn, and Emperor Jian Yuan said: "Both the Blood Sea Emperor and the Soul Refining Emperor are invincible emperors. I am afraid they are not easy ones."
"The cultivation level is lower than the eighth level of the Hunyuan Emperor. I'm afraid there will be great risks in intervening."
The Immortal Emperor nodded and said, "Then let me join the battle with fellow Daoist Jian Yuan?"
Chen Nianzhi pondered slightly, and then said: "Three talents, four elephants and seven emperors, please come with me to join the battle."
"The rest will stay in the ancient world and complete the breakthrough in cultivation as soon as possible."
When Emperor Lingxi and others heard this, their eyes darkened slightly.
Although the remaining people have improved to a certain extent after obtaining the meat and blood of the sub-holy dragon, they are still far away from the eighth level of the Hunyuan Emperor.
Among the five of Lingxi, Jianxuan, Zhou Mie, Tianyao, and Long Ao, Lingxi and Jianxuan needed at least a hundred kalpas to accumulate their knowledge because they had broken through not long ago.
However, none of the three emperors, Zhou Mie, Tianyao, and Long Ao, have cultivated the True Spirit Yuanshen, so they are all stuck at the level of the source treasure.
If you can't cultivate into the True Spirit Yuanshen in the future, it may be difficult to break through to the eighth level of the Hunyuan Emperor.
Thinking of this, none of the five people said anything, but there was a sense of urgency in their hearts.
As for the people named by Chen Nianzhi, there was a hint of fighting spirit.
After their names were called, Chen Nianzhi did not hesitate at all, and immediately said decisively: "The journey is long, let's leave without further delay. Let's set off immediately."
After the words fell, Chen Nianzhi immediately activated the Guixu Bead and led the nine people across the vast and chaotic sea and arrived at the distant chaotic sea.
This time, Chen Nianzhi was familiar with the journey and the time to reach the Immortal Primitive Realm was shortened to six calamities.
He arrived at the Immortal Primitive Realm with nine people, and found that the Blood Sea Ancestor had not returned yet, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, he asked the nine emperors to help set up the formation, and he came to the Immortal Palace and began to retreat to refine the Xuanwu Armor.
This Xuanwu Armor is a tortoise shell with unparalleled defensive power. It is also very difficult to refine.
Fortunately, Chen Nianzhi's current cultivation level has improved again. He continued to activate his whole body, and finally swallowed up the Xuanwu Armor bit by bit.
After all the Xuanwu armor was refined, Chen Nianzhi discovered that the Xuanming divine patterns in his body began to change.
Sometimes he manifested an ancient sword, sometimes he transformed into the River Styx, sometimes he manifested the cold fire, and finally he completely condensed into a simple shield.
"True Spirit Divine Form—Xuanwu Shield."
Chen Nianzhi spoke slowly, with a smile in his eyes.
This Black Tortoise Shield is one of the twelve divine forms of Xuan Ming Dao. At this moment, it was successfully cultivated by Chen Nianzhi, and it suddenly possessed some powerful power.
Chen Nianzhi slowly took the Xuanwu Shield into his hand, and immediately discovered the magic of this Xuanwu Shield.
He found that the basalt shield was extremely heavy and seemed to be made of Nine Netherworld Iron, with its entire body showing a cold color.
"Buzz——"
Chen Nianzhi tried to use the Xuanwu Shield to strengthen his body, and immediately found that his physical defense and strength began to increase rapidly.
Almost instantly, his defense increased several times, and even his strength was greatly improved.
"The defense has been increased by three times, and the strength is still 60%."
Chen Nianzhi whispered in his heart and couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
His physical defense was already astonishing. After it was increased three times, it had completely reached the level of the Great Emperor.
With the defensive power of the Great Emperor level, coupled with the damage absorption of the Guixu divine pattern, three times the vitality and thirty times the recovery power.
Chen Nianzhi doubted that he would be able to protect himself even if he faced Ya Sheng directly.
"My current physical defense is probably comparable to that of the Black Abyss Emperor back then, right?"
Chen Nianzhi whispered in his heart, and he sensed it again, but his eyebrows couldn't help but frown slightly.
He discovered that the power of the True Spirit God Form seemed to have its limits. This True Spirit God Form could at most increase the defense power of the Great Emperor by three times.
Once the physical defense exceeds this level, the effect will gradually decrease.
But if you think about it carefully, this is also expected. After all, the true spiritual form is only the power of the Great Emperor.
This kind of power has not yet set foot in the realm of chaos, and it is impossible to bring huge improvements to the Yasheng and even the Chaos Emperor.
It is precisely because of this that before cultivating the nine true spiritual forms, those who become physically holy and cultivate more true spiritual forms are only making up for their own shortcomings, but cannot bring about a qualitative change in combat power.
The reason why the last three True Spirit Divine Forms can bring about a huge increase in combat power is because the nine True Spirit Divine Patterns increase the physical body, not just the improvement brought by the True Spirit Divine Form.
After all, the six true spirit divine patterns forming a large formation can only increase the power of the physical body by about five times, but the seven true spirit divine patterns can increase it by about nine times.
The eighth true spirit pattern can increase the strength of the physical body sixteen times. Once the nine true spirit patterns are cultivated, it will be an astonishing thirty times improvement.
It is precisely because of this that it is said that those who have cultivated seven true spiritual forms can fight against the Lesser Sage, and those who have cultivated eight true spiritual forms can rival or even defeat the Lesser Saint.
Only by cultivating the ninth true spiritual form can one be said to be invincible in the sub-sage realm.
As for the ability to sanctify the physical body and successfully challenge the power of the Emperor of Heaven, in addition to the increase in the physical body brought by the nine true spiritual forms.
The most critical reason is actually the power of the only true form that is manifested after the nine true spirits and divine forms are fused and unified.
The only true form is the union of the nine true spirit and divine forms, similar to the sub-sage who has completed his mastery. Only in this way can he have the ultimate power that transcends the realm of true spirit and divine form.
"Under extreme conditions, the Xuanwu Shield can only increase defense by roughly three times. The same is true for the Ancient Life Pearl, and the effect will gradually decrease after that."
Chen Nianzhi whispered in his heart, and quickly understood the mystery of the true spiritual form.
Regarding the fact that the True Spirit Divine Form cannot always increase itself, Chen Nianzhi actually quickly adjusted his mentality.
After all, after reaching the realm of the Great Emperor, the true spiritual form becomes the foundation of one's own strength. If it can continue to increase, wouldn't it mean that it is increasing itself?
It is completely unreasonable to step on your left foot and spiral up to the sky with your right foot.
In this case, Chen Nianzhi's true spirit form is three times more powerful than the ordinary top form. It can be said to be an amazing talent that defies the heavens.
The most important thing is that Chen Nianzhi has cultivated the eight true spirit patterns, which are the basis for cultivating the eight true spirit divine forms. It also gives Chen Nianzhi sixteen times the physical strength.
There is a sixteen-fold physical increase. As long as Chen Nian's physical cultivation reaches the realm of the Great Emperor, he should be able to challenge or even defeat the Yasheng even if he has not cultivated the true spiritual form.
Of course, Chen Nianzhi's current realm is only at the fifth level of the Hunyuan Emperor, and is still far away from the realm of the Great Emperor.
Even with the increase in True Spirit Divine Marks, his physical strength is only comparable to the eighth level of the Hunyuan Emperor.
Thanks to the increase in the two true spiritual forms, Chen Nianzhi had physical defense and vitality comparable to that of the Great Emperor.
As for other foundations, they are still a little far away from the Great Emperor.
"Fortunately, the power is close."
Chen Nianzhi whispered in his heart that this Xuanwu Shield increased his strength by 60%, plus the 30% increase from the Ancient Life Pearl, that is a 90% increase in strength.
Based on the eighth-level physical body of the Hunyuan Emperor, he once again increased his strength by 90%. I dare not say that he has set foot in the realm of the Great Emperor, but it is actually quite close.
With such divine power, coupled with the Chaos Halberd that is comparable to an innate treasure, Chen Nianzhi is enough to confront the powerful Emperor head-on.
Coupled with his incredible defensive power, his combat power may be almost incalculable.
"The immunity of the immortal battle suit, the absorption of damage by the Guixu divine pattern, the defensive power of the true spirit god-shaped basalt shield, and the vitality of the ancient life bead."
Chen Nianzhi whispered slowly, and finally made a conclusion: "My defense power should be enough to face Ya Sheng directly."
With an accurate estimate of his own combat power, Chen Nianzhi had some confidence in the upcoming battle.
He walked out of the retreat room and found that the Immortal Primitive Domain had been preparing for war for a long time, and Hunyuan killing arrays had been set up one after another.
After Chen Nianzhi came out of seclusion, he found that the Immortal Emperor was protecting him not far away, and he couldn't help but ask: "Has it been successful?"
"It doesn't fit."
The Immortal Emperor shook his head. It turned out that not long ago, Chen Nianzhi had suggested that the Immortal Emperor refine the complete remains of the Nether Emperor and the Tiansha Emperor.
After the Netherworld Emperor and Tiansha Emperor were suppressed by the Immortal Old Man, Yuanshen fled into the chaotic sea to escape for their lives.
If their complete corpses could be refined, perhaps they could be transformed into two true spiritual forms, which would also be a good choice for the Immortal Emperor.
However, among the two remaining true spirit patterns of the Immortal Emperor, the best one for ultimate sublimation is the refining explosion type of innate treasure.
As for extreme speed, it is best to refine the corpse of an emperor who is good at speed type. The corpses of Tiansha and Nether Emperor are not suitable.
The most important thing is that these two people became enlightened through blood sacrifices. Strictly speaking, they are just fake emperors. Their foundations are not even comparable to those of the pioneer emperors. If they are used to cultivate the true spirit god form, it will actually reduce their own strength.
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi said: "It's actually an advantage to those two people."
The Immortal Emperor shook his head and said with a sneer: "People who become enlightened through blood sacrifice often have their personalities gradually distorted, and may even hurt their own human souls."
"If they take this path, their resistance to the Chaos Desolate Sea will be extremely low."
"Just throw them into the chaotic sea of desolation, and they will soon turn into a desolate race without any consciousness."
Chen Nianzhi nodded and was about to say something when he suddenly raised his head and looked outside the Immortal Primitive Domain with a solemn expression.
But outside the vast Immortal Primitive Domain, I don’t know when two figures appeared.
Among the two people, one was wearing a blood-colored robe, and the other was wearing a dark black robe. Their whole bodies were shrouded in dark mist, making it difficult for people to see their true faces.
"The Soul Refining Ancestor and the Blood Sea Emperor."
Chen Nianzhi whispered slightly with a hint of coldness between his brows.
But when he saw the Blood Sea Emperor standing in the sky, he immediately sneered and said, "Master, it turns out you are just a dying person."
"It's just a drop of blood, but it can scare away the disciples. You are really good at it."
"What a pity, since you are already dead, why come back?"
"Today, I will let you borrow this drop of your blood to attack the realm of the Lesser Saint."
As soon as the words fell, the Blood Sea Ancestor immediately charged toward the Immortal Primitive Realm with overwhelming divine power.
"Get into formation."
Emperor Qingxiao spoke directly, and immediately one after another Hunyuan formations were opened, trying their best to resist the attack of Blood Sea Emperor.
But the Blood Sea Emperor was truly extraordinary in his methods. He spurred the boundless sea of blood to sweep in. As the vast sea of blood washed away, countless formations began to tremble violently and began to teeter on the edge of collapse.
The Soul Refining Emperor waved the Innate Supreme Treasure Ten Thousand Souls Banner, and in an instant, billions of ghost souls rose into the sky and rushed towards the Hunyuan Formation that filled the sky.
"not good enough!"
Emperor Qingxiao's face changed wildly, and he couldn't help but say: "They are too powerful, and the formation alone cannot stop them."
Saying this, the three great emperors took to the air and tried to kill towards the center of the battlefield.
However, at this critical moment, Emperor Qingxiao was stopped by Chen Nianzhi, but Chen Nianzhi said, "You hide your strength first, and leave this to me."
Chen Nianzhi said this, directly controlled the Chaos Heavenly Halberd, and killed towards the center of the battlefield.
"you again!"
Seeing Chen Nianzhi coming to kill him, the Blood Sea Emperor immediately showed a look of indifference.
But in an instant, he summoned an infinite sea of blood to attack, intending to completely trap Chen Nianzhi.
Then he looked at the Soul Refining Emperor, and said with a solemn expression: "Fellow Soul Refining Taoist, this person's defense is extraordinary. If he cannot be completely suppressed, I am afraid it will be a big trouble."
"snort--"
The Soul Refining Emperor sneered and shook the Ten Thousand Soul Flag in his hand, and countless evil spirits immediately rolled towards Chen Nianzhi.
But Chen Nianzhi was not afraid at all. His true spirit god-shaped basalt shield kept rotating, allowing the evil spirits in the sky to erode him, but it still couldn't hurt him at all.
And he sacrificed the pure Yang sky fire, burning countless evil spirits into ashes and wiping them out.
"Pure Yang Sky Fire has some tricks."
The Soul Refining Emperor spoke slowly, and then with a flick of his sleeves, five powerful figures flew out from behind his head, attacking Chen Nianzhi.
"The five desolate emperors are in some trouble."
Chen Nianzhi whispered in his heart, and could only push the immortal battle suit to the extreme, resisting the attacks of the five Huangdi Emperors, but there was still no sign of injury.
Such a war lasted for millions of years in the blink of an eye. The two of them were shocked to find that there was nothing they could do against Chen Nianzhi.
"The Ancient Pearl of Life and the Black Tortoise Shield are all defensive forms of the true spirit god."
Seeing that he could not defeat Chen Nianzhi, the Blood Sea Emperor was extremely jealous and said: "They are all defensive true spirit divine patterns, and they are made with innate treasures. Compared to you, you are the old man's new disciple, right?"
"That old man is really biased and actually gave you all the innate treasures."
"Why, I am his top disciple, why is he so partial?"
The Blood Sea Emperor was so furious that he mistook Chen Nianzhi for the disciple of the Immortal Old Man.
But seeing him smile ferociously, he wielded a Blood Sea Divine Sword and slashed over, saying: "Since it's so unfair, then you all have to die, both you and the old man!"
