BXBX NOVEL Chapter 41: Minghe Finished his Closed-Door Meditation
During the thousands of years that the Wu Tribe and the Demon Tribe fought with each other, they were only small conflicts, not serious battles. It was not for their fear, but because they were making preparation for the final battle.
As for the Demon Tribe, their force was greatly enhanced with the joining of Fuxi and Goddess Nvywa. Although Goddess Nvywa was titled with Royal Nvywa, she preferred not to get involved in the issues of the Demon Tribe. Fuxi was just the opposite. With his exquisite wisdom and skill in the Primordial Prediction, he obtained the trust of Emperor Jun.
Fuxi deserved to be called the Royal Fuxi. He had created plenty of powerful formations for the Demon Tribe, which greatly enhanced the force of their army. Emperor Jun had even lent his Eternal Spiritual Treasures, the River Chart and the Inscription of the Luo, to Fuxi for Enlightenment. With these treasures, Fuxi immediately predicted out the Cosmic Stars Formation.
The Cosmic Stars Formation was one of the four most mysterious formations in the land. The other three were the God-killing Sword Formation, the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation, and the Gods Killing Formation. The God-killing Sword Formation had shown up at the first catastrophe of Longhan, but the other two had not appeared yet.
The Cosmic Stars Formation could gather the power of 365 stars. With the Solar Star and the Lunar Star as the eye of the formation, it was full of mystery and menacing intents. Refining this formation would require 365 large Cosmic Stars Banners, representing 365 main stars in the sky, and 14,800 small Cosmic Stars Banners, representing 14,800 subordinate stars.
When this formation began, the 365 large Cosmic Stars Banners would be the root, the 14,800 small Cosmic Stars Banners would be the branches, and the billions of members of the Demon Clan would be the leaves. The three parts were tied together by the force of cosmic stars, so nobody knew how powerful it would be.
However, it would be a very large project to refine the Cosmic Stars Banners needed by this formation. In addition, the suitable cultivator needed to be chosen from the Demon Tribe to control this formation. To complete all of these preparations, it would take more than thousands of years. They needed time.
On the other side, the Wu Tribe’s situation was similar to that of the Demon Tribe. The Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery were maneuvering to refine the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation which was succeeded from Pangu. Maybe it was "fate" determined by the heaven that the Wu Tribe and the Demon Tribe had both created a mysterious formation at the same time.
Actually, the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery had known about the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation for a long time, but they knew that this formation was too dangerous. Even the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery would lose a lot of their power when starting this formation. This whole time, the Wu Tribe hadn’t had any opponents in the Untainted Land, so they just left the formation for a long time.
However, since the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery noticed that the Demon Tribe occupied the Heavenly Court, and that the force of the Demon Tribe had enhanced greatly with Fuxi and Goddess Nvywa, they’d felt the potential pressure from the Demon Tribe. If things continued this way, the Demon Tribe would catch up with the Wu Tribe. But the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery weren’t worried.
In order to have a deadly kill action, the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery started to refine the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation. Although this formation would cause much burden for the Ancestors of Sorcery, the effort would be rewarding. It would give out amazing power, and the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery decided to do this.
The Wu Tribe and the Demon Tribe both enhanced their power secretly, and there was a short period of peace in the Untainted Land. It seemed like the peace before the coming of a storm. But maybe a big war would happen sooner or later. Although the Untainted Land was silent these days, the Evil Spirit didn’t decrease between heaven and earth. In fact, it even increased slowly. When it came to a peak, the Cultivation Tribulation would start formally.
On the Sacred Island of the Blood Sea, Minghe saw the Evil Spirit increasing day by day, and started to worry. Although this Cultivation Tribulation was between the Wu and Demon Tribes, most creatures in the Untainted Land would be trapped in. Moreover, Minghe had never thought about avoiding it.
Minghe knew that in this Cultivation Tribulation, the combat between the Wu and Demon Tribes was not the main point, it was the appearance of the Human Tribe. Later, six sages would turn out. Minghe thought that he was better than any one of the six, so naturally, he must complete his own Origin before this Cultivation Tribulation. Or else, when facing with a Sage, Minghe would fall behind and his life would be in danger.
After finishing the Teachings from Zixiao Palace, Minghe had been in his Closed-Door Meditation for a long time. With the help of his Good Separation and Evil Separation, Minghe sped up his prediction of the Divine Law. The Taoist of Heaven and Earth worked on predicting the Law of Heaven and Earth, the Red Lotus Taoist on the Law of Killing, and Minghe was responsible for the Law of Blood and the Law of Spiritual Beings, which meant the four divine laws would be moved forward together.
The Good Separation Taoist of Heaven and Earth did his separation when he reached the late stage of Sage-to-be. When he had predicted half of the Law of Heaven and Earth, the Map of Heaven and Earth was restored, it had damaged during the separation. Although the Taoist of Heaven and Earth was still at the late stage of Sage-to-be, it was much better than before and only one step away from reaching the peak stage of Sage-to-be.
The Evil Separation Red Lotus Taoist was born with the peak stage of Sage-to-be, but he still needed to enhance his foundation since his high-level cultivation partly came from the mid-grade primordial supreme treasure, the Red Lotus of Fire. In order to strengthen his foundation and restore the damage to the Red Lotus of Fire, the Red Lotus Taoist never stopped his work to cultivate during the thousands of years.
While nourishing the Red Lotus of Fire with Three Light Holy Water, Minghe was also predicting the Law of Killing. In order to enhance his peak stage of Sage-to-be at the third time Teachings in the Zixiao Palace completely, Minghe even sacrificed his Merit to the Magical Tao Mirror directly. Not long before, the Red Lotus Taoist had predicted 60% of the Law of Killing successfully, which meant that his cultivation was enhanced completely.
Unfortunately, Minghe had separated the Law of Killing and the Law of Heaven and Earth when separating his Good Separation and Evil Separation. That meant Minghe could comprehend beyond The Divine Law of his two Separations, but his cultivation wouldn’t be enhanced together. It seemed that when a Sage placed his Original Spirit on the Way of Heaven, he could borrow the power from the Way of Heaven, but he couldn’t improve his cultivation from it.
The Evil Separation Red Lotus Taoist could suddenly comprehend 60% of the Law of Killing and completely enhanced his peak stage of Sage-to-be, but Minghe didn’t make it as his Separation did. Fortunately, Minghe could also increase his fighting capacity through the Law of Enlightenment from his two Separations. This was also beneficial for his enlightenment on the Law of Spiritual Beings.
The Law of Spiritual Beings was full of mysteries. It was the foundation for Minghe’s Clones of the Blood God, the Blood God Doppelgangers and Rebirth with Blood Drops. Actually, if one separated the Power of Divine Law with the Separations like Minghe had, he couldn’t share the Laws among his three Separations, even if the speed of enlightenment could be accelerated.
But it wasn’t the same as when he’d gained the Law of Spiritual Beings. Minghe could feel the enlightenment process of the Divine Law through his Separations clearly. Although his cultivation couldn’t be improved by this, he could enhance his power during a fight against enemies. It was still something pitiful that the Good Separation and Evil Separation couldn’t understand any piece of the Law of Spiritual Beings. Minghe could only rely on himself to comprehend it.
Although there were still some flaws in it, Minghe felt content at this moment. Minghe knew that he still needed to enhance his flesh body as well as his cultivation. He was on his way to becoming a Rakshasa, having a strong flesh body would be fundamental. He also knew that the reason he was able to break through the late stage of Sage-to-be was that he had comprehended half of the Law of Killing and the Law of Blood, but his flesh body still stayed at the Secondary Stage of Sage-to-be. Therefore, he needed time to cultivate his flesh now.
For seven thousand years, Minghe cultivated with his two Separations the whole time. Minghe never stopped offering his Merit to the Magical Tao Mirror. Until now, the consumption was even equal to the Merit from the Tribe formations of the Wu and Demon Tribes. What made Minghe’s heart ache most was that his Golden Lotus of Merit, which he had saved for several long years, shrank greatly.
No pain, no gain. In addition to the improvement of his Good Separation and Evil Separation, Minghe also gained a cultivation level of the peak level of Sage-to-be. As for the four Laws, he had comprehended 60% of the Law of Killing and the Law of Blood, and 50% of the Law of Heaven and Earth and Law of Spiritual Beings. Besides, Minghe’s flesh body also enhanced. He could even fight against a peak-stage of Sage-to-be with just his bare flesh.
The more profoundly one comprehended on a Law, the more power he would get. 60% comprehension of the Law of Killing and the Law of Blood made Minghe’s flesh body several times better than before. With the refining from the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, Minghe was confident that his flesh body could match with the Ancestor of Sorcery. Meanwhile, he felt that he hadn’t yet reached the limit of his flesh body. He knew that it would take a long time for him to overpass his limit.
Minghe had also been working on comprehending his obsession. Although he might not become a Sage through the Way of the Three Separations, his force could be enhanced greatly with one more Separation. Unfortunately, he still hadn’t gotten any theory of the third separation after thousands of years. He decided to give up for a while. Selfcentric Separation was the most difficult one to be separated. Minghe knew that he needed to wait for a chance.
