The Heaven-shattering: Holding the Jade Disc of Creation

Chapter 241: Fulfilling the Promise and Finding the Sword Secret Realm (Second Update)

A long-lost friend came to the foot of the majestic Kunlun Mountains.

Zhang Shuo looked at the towering mountains and moved forward steadily. His figure kept changing, sometimes forward, sometimes backward, as if following some mysterious law. Finally, his figure disappeared under the Kunlun Mountains.

Passing through the ancient magic circle, the real Kunlun Mountains come into view. The boundless mountain range, each peak is like a dragon's spine, towering into the clouds, majestic and magnificent.

"Kunlun Fairy Mountain, long time no see, I'm back." Looking at the familiar Kunlun Mountains, Zhang Shuo took a deep breath and smiled.

He strolled around the outskirts of Kunlun Mountain, crossed one mountain after another, and headed towards the place where he became an immortal.

The towering Kunlun Mountains are vast and majestic, spanning the world and stretching across the vast wilderness, boundless and limitless.

Walking among the outer mountains, Zhang Shuo's Dao Pupil of Creation saw through the essence of the earth's veins, and he couldn't help but admire it.

Even on the outskirts of Kunlun Mountain, every mountain is blessed by a small dragon vein. In the endless ups and downs of Kunlun Mountain, it is impossible to count how many dragon veins are hidden here.

This fairyland is so amazing that it is hard to imagine what kind of power is needed to artificially create this fairyland.

"The research of Emperor Zun and Hades Zun on topography can really be called astonishing. This Kunlun Mountain really is the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and it has infinite creation. Such an extraordinary topography has reached the extreme limit allowed by heaven and earth."

Although he hadn't been here for more than ten years, Zhang Shuo was still very familiar with Kunlun. In order to choose a suitable place for training, he had visited the outer areas many times.

Moving forward along the way, with Zhang Shuo's current level of cultivation and knowledge of formations, he no longer needs to rely on the Jade Disc of Fortune to protect him like he did before. He can travel freely in the outer area on his own.

Along the way, Zhang Shuo, who had learned the source technique, discovered many strange terrains, searched for many rare treasures, and killed many corpse demons and wild beasts.

Because of the Kunlun formation, Zhang Shuo did not travel through the void, but walked all the way through the outer area and into the depths of Kunlun.

I don’t know how far I went, but a cliff appeared in front of me. The moment I saw the cliff, Zhang Shuo covered his chest, and his violently beating heart showed his deep connection with this place.

The Chaos Waterfall fell, half covering the cliff. Thousands of strands of Chaos Air flowed and fell from the cliff, and there was a vast fog.

This is the place where Zhang Shuo was born, and it is also the cliff where Henren commemorates his brother.

When he arrived at the cliff, he looked at a deep pit under the Chaos Waterfall. That was the location of the light cocoon and also the place where his body was conceived.

In the deep pit, the foggy chaotic air has faint flickering nine-colored lights. The mysterious energy of creation gathers but does not disperse. The hazy chaos adds a touch of gray to the nine-colored divine clouds. The ten-colored halos flicker, which is strange and mysterious.

The deep pit was once a place that gave birth to the supreme being. The charm of creation left there, under the nourishment of the chaotic energy, may give birth to a new great creation after countless years.

On the cliff, Zhang Shuo looked at the blood-stained robe guarded by chaos. Hundreds of thousands of years had passed, but it had not been erased. It floated on the cliff, guarded by the ruthless avenue of the stone tablet.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed the blood-stained shirt without any resistance. The moment it touched the blood-stained shirt, the golden blood in his body surged and all kinds of memory fragments flooded into his mind.

"Is this really..."

Zhang Shuo carefully looked at the blood-stained shirt in his hand, feeling the fragments of memory flowing out of his blood, and the doubts in his heart became stronger.

He observed the Jade Disc of Creation in the space of his sea of ​​consciousness and found that the Jade Disc did not move at all, as if it was not disturbed by any external force.

"If this memory belongs to someone else, then it is undoubtedly an external contamination, but the Jade Disc of Good Fortune has no reaction. Add to that the emotional fluctuations from the heart when I met Nannan, and the Jade Disc of Good Fortune did not react at all. Could it be that I really went back to the past and became the brother of a ruthless person?"

For a moment, Zhang Shuo had a lot of thoughts, but in the end he could not give a real answer, because his real body was here, even if he could travel through time and space, he should not fall.

"call!"

Zhang Shuo shook off his messy thoughts and put all the doubts in his heart. As long as his cultivation strength reached a certain level, all doubts would naturally be resolved.

He came to the stone tablet again and touched this star tablet cast by a ruthless man. This was a treasure used to suppress the cliff.

Under normal circumstances, no one could get close to it, not even Ye Fan in the original novel, but this stone tablet did not reject Zhang Shuo at all, as if it thought he was trustworthy.

After staying for a long time, Zhang Shuo left.

In the central fairy valley, there are tens of thousands of dragon-head peaks, with giant dragons circling, soaring and circling. The extremely rich dragon energy evolves into tens of millions of big dragons, and bursts of dragon roars resound through the sky.

After arriving here, Zhang Shuo could no longer stroll leisurely like before. The nine-colored light flickering between his eyebrows enveloped his entire body, resisting the terrifying ancient formation between heaven and earth.

Passing by the huge stone with inscriptions again, Zhang Shuo stared at it for a long time, and the picture and memories unconsciously came to his mind.

After cutting off all thoughts, Zhang Shuo entered the valley where the Chengxian Pool was located.

"You're back. I didn't expect that in just a dozen years, you've reached this level. Your talent is truly terrifying. Talent like yours is hard to find even in the Age of Mythology."

A vague and illusory voice sounded in the void. In front of Zhang Shuo, the myriad immortal lights in the fairy valley gathered into a figure, surrounded by immortal light and mountains behind him.

"I'm back, Array Spirit. I can now fulfill my promise."

Zhang Shuo looked at the formation spirit in the void and smiled.

"Um!!!"

Zhang Shuo's words caused the array spirit in front of him to tremble violently. Countless mysterious principles intertwined and merged on its body, and an aura as deep as an abyss or a prison burst out, as if it was facing the terrifying pressure of a vast fairyland.

"Really? Although you are already a Saint Realm expert, but... with your cultivation level, it is still too difficult for you to help me. It's okay, I can wait, you don't have to worry."

The array spirit's voice was ethereal and crisp, but with a slight tremor, as if it didn't want to dampen Zhang Shuo's enthusiasm, but it also had some anticipation.

"Array spirit, don't worry! I am already fully confident that if I want you to obtain a living body, it cannot be done by cultivation alone. The important thing is to have the corresponding secret method." Zhang Shuo said confidently.

"Well... so, you have obtained the secret technique that can turn me into a living being!" After hearing Zhang Shuo's explanation, the formation spirit couldn't help but said excitedly.

"Hmm! I found a special immortal. He used to be the god of the Cauldron of All Things, but now he has become a real living being."

As Zhang Shuo spoke, he released the divine child from the ancient world of chaos.

The divine child and the formation spirit looked at each other, and they recognized each other's identity instantly. One must know that the Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain Immortal Pond was created by the Emperor and the Underworld Lord. As the Emperor's imperial soldier deity, the divine child naturally recognized the immortal formation spirit.

The array spirit was also familiar with the god of the Cauldron of the Source of All Things. Even though the divine child had become a real living being, his unique fairy aura had not changed much. Combined with Zhang Shuo's previous explanation, the array spirit recognized the identity of the divine child at a glance.

"Om..."

The formation spirit waved his hand, and a fairy light lingered around the divine child, sensing the other party's situation.

After a moment, the formation spirit retracted the fairy light and said to the divine child in a complicated tone: "I didn't expect that you could get rid of the identity of the weapon spirit. Was it the Emperor's method or a coincidence?"

Shenwa had already learned part of the truth from Zhang Shuo, so he was not surprised by the array spirit's question and answered directly:
"It's a bit of both, but it's mainly Emperor Zun's tricks. However, my current situation should be beyond his expectations."

When Shenwa said this, Zhang Shuo looked at him inexplicably.

After a moment of silence, the formation spirit continued, "So, you and the Emperor are no longer on the same path."

In response, Shenwa remained silent, but his attitude spoke for itself.

Zhang Shuo saw this and waited for them to finish their conversation before taking the divine child back to the ancient world of chaos. He said to the array spirit: "It is easy to help you get rid of the array spirit body now, but it will be a bit troublesome later. I have two options for you to consider. One is to help you quickly transform into a living being, but all your memories will be washed away. The qualifications after transforming into a living being will be at the same level as the innate Dao fetus.

The second is that the memory can be retained, but it takes a lot of time and resources to transform. However, the qualifications after the transformation will be very high, similar to being a natural holy spirit.

You can make your own choice between the two options. No matter which one you choose, I will do my best to help you. "

"I choose the second one." After learning that there were two ways to choose, the formation spirit chose the latter without hesitation.

Zhang Shuo nodded without surprise. He knew that the other party would choose the second method, but out of commitment, it was better to explain the necessary parts clearly.

"Okay, then I will teach you the secret technique of gathering spirits. You just need to gather all your spiritual energy into the Immortal Pond."

Zhang Shuo flicked his fingers, and a ray of divine light shot into the body of the array spirit, giving it the secret technique of gathering spirits.

"Okay, I understand. Here are the various magical items I collected. I'll give them all to you."

The formation spirit swiped towards the void, and a treasure bottle shining with brilliant light appeared and flew into Zhang Shuo's hands.

Zhang Shuo was not polite either. He took the vase and put it aside, waiting for the formation spirit to take action.

Above the Chengxian Pool, the spirit body of the formation spirit flickered with a halo, and the shadows of the mountains behind it dissipated, replaced by billions of lines crisscrossing in the void. These lines connected the spirit body of the formation spirit and were the channel for it to communicate with the formation.

Spots of spiritual light came along the lines, and the array spirit used its own spiritual power to activate the secret art of gathering spirits, drawing in the spiritual power hidden in the immortal array, converging and blending it, and condensing its own spiritual body to the extreme.

The vast and boundless Kunlun Fairy Mountain, from the periphery to the central fairyland, countless divine patterns and traces of Taoism appear in every mountain range and land. Each line resembles a real dragon or a real phoenix, and all contain unimaginable mysterious power.

The divine patterns of the central source in the void, the top-level formation patterns, and the Dao marks formed naturally by heaven and earth, the three are intertwined and integrated into one, forming this astonishing terrain formation.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the entire Kunlun Immortal Mountain was shaking, and the terrain formation was completely activated. Countless lines and patterns intertwined and covered the sky and the earth. Bursts of dragon roars resounded through the clouds. Tens of thousands of dragons roared in the sky, and the terrifying aura of immortality and ascension burst out.

"Ah..."

"what……"

On the outskirts of Kunlun Fairy Mountain, the wild beasts that originally lived in the peaceful area were torn to pieces by the terrifying dragon energy the moment the formation was opened, and turned into blood mist that dissipated between heaven and earth.

Countless monsters and wild beasts died, and only a very small number of powerful creatures with special positions survived by chance, but this horrific scene also frightened them.

Above the Chengxian Pool, countless points of light flew from all over the Kunlun Immortal Mountain. That was the spiritual light of the formation spirit, the pillar of its spiritual intelligence.

Billions of immortal lights gathered together, and endless spiritual lights merged into one, making the originally illusory array spirit body become more solid and flickering, as if it was about to turn into substance.

It takes some time for the array spirit to gather, and Zhang Shuo did not waste this time. He took this opportunity to verify his guess.

The divine power surged, and the vast chaotic divine power poured out from the palm of his hand and condensed into an innate Bagua diagram.

Zhang Shuo took out the Jade Disc of Creation, and his eyes were filled with an extremely sharp sword intent. That was the sword intent in cursive characters that he had recorded from the scenes of Chisongzi's years. Although it was incomplete, it was enough to serve as an introduction to the cause and effect.

“Based on the current situation on Earth, the most likely location of the secret realm in Chisongzi’s memories is in the Kunlun Immortal Mountain.

Now that the formation spirits have gathered, the Immortal Land formation has been activated. All the special spaces hidden in Kunlun Immortal Mountain will be activated by the formation. This is a great opportunity to verify the secret realm where the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass is located. We must not let it go!"

Looking at the Kunlun Fairy Mountain shrouded by the formation, Zhang Shuo murmured to himself.

As he spoke, the innate Bagua in his hand kept changing. With the blessing of the Jade Disc of Creation and the guidance of the sword's intent, he continued to calculate the secret realm of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass in the Kunlun Fairy Mountain.

Inside the Kunlun Immortal Mountain, the mysterious secrets of heaven were exposed. Under the calculation of the innate Bagua diagram, attempts were made to resonate the cause and effect qi. However, as a large number of positions were eliminated, the desired results were not obtained after the entire secret of Kunlun Immortal Mountain was calculated.

“It’s not in Kunlun Fairy Mountain, so where could it be?” Zhang Shuo frowned slightly, took back the Jade Disc of Creation with some disappointment, and dispersed the sword intent and Bagua diagram. He could only wait quietly for the formation spirit to gather.

Time passed quickly, and thirty-six days went by in a flash. The array spirit's gathering of spirits also reached the final stage. However, as the last bit of spiritual light merged into the spiritual body, the array spirit took all the spirituality in the array back into its own body, completing the gathering of spirits.

"Okay, leave everything to me, and then you just need to have a good sleep."

A nine-colored ray of light flew out from between Zhang Shuo's eyebrows and transformed into a nine-colored glazed sword, which he held in his hand.

The chaotic divine power in Zhang Shuo's body continued to surge, and he performed the secret art of unlocking the soul. Mysterious and profound aura emanated from his body, and the Nine-Colored Glazed Sword was wrapped in a hazy glow.

"cut!"

With a sword slash, the nine-colored glazed sword cut through the void, leaving behind a nine-colored rainbow mark, and slashed towards the spirit body of the formation spirit.

"jump!"

The Taoist sword slashed through the spirit body, and the sound of broken chains was heard from the darkness. The spirit body of the formation spirit floated out and separated from the billions of patterns in the void.

Without its restraints and the support of the formation, the array spirit transformed into a ball of crystal clear light, floating in the void.

The ball of light swayed and seemed extremely unstable. The extremely rich spirituality seemed like it would explode at any time.

Zhang Shuo pointed his finger and the Divine Chain of Ten Thousand Holy Orders flew out, locking the ball of light and sealing off all spirituality to prevent any accidents.

Looking at the terrain formation that had lost the control of the formation spirit, Zhang Shuo summoned Huang Yu and asked him to temporarily take over the terrain formation of the immortal land.

With Huang Yu's alternative cultivation and the essence of the Holy Spirit, there would be no problem in controlling the terrain formation in a short period of time.

"Stab!"

The void channel opened, and Zhang Shuo entered the ancient chaotic world with a ball of light.

Under the World Tree, at the root of the dragon of the Ten Directions Ancestral Vein, Zhang Shuo took out some of the remaining materials from the creation of the World Spirits, integrated the ball of light into it, and transformed it into a fetus of heaven and earth.

Put the Tao fetus into the ancestral root, and let the endless dragon energy of the earth veins nourish the Tao fetus.

"If it's easier, you can just enter the six realms of reincarnation and be reborn. But since you promised the formation spirit, you naturally have to do it to perfection."

Looking at the Tao fetus sleeping in the ancestral root, Zhang Shuo nodded with satisfaction. After the Tao fetus is successfully conceived and born, the formation spirit will have qualifications that are not weaker, or even higher than those of the divine baby.

Just when Zhang Shuo was about to leave, he suddenly became curious about the spiritual form of the formation spirit.

After all, the array spirit has always been a vague human form. When the spirit gathering is completed, the spirit is just more solid and brilliant, but it still has no specific physical appearance.

For a formation spirit that retains its memories, the form and appearance it takes when it transforms into a living being depends on its inner longings and aspirations, that is, what it wants to become from the bottom of its heart.

With the insight of the Dao Pupil of Creation, the image of the spirit body within the Dao fetus is reflected in the eyes.

"Hmm! The Empress... Isn't this the image of the Empress?" Zhang Shuo said in surprise, looking at the spiritual image that was 70% similar to the Empress.

"Oh my god, PTSD, huh?"
