Chapter 2125: Chapter 2125: Fire Lotus Self-Detonation, Dao Techniques Imprisonment
The Dao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three gives birth to all things.
This phrase is included in the Dao Law.
At that time, Ning Chenxin didn’t even have the qualification to recite this phrase.
He tried, but when he pronounced the three words "Dao gives birth," his body couldn’t bear it.
It felt like his Dao foundation would collapse at any moment.
Back then, his master recited it for him once, helping Ning Chenxin break through the shackles.
After that, Ning Chenxin finally had the qualification to recite it.
Even now, reciting the entire passage bears immense pressure and backlash, with the Dao foundation inside him trembling violently, as if it might topple like a building at any moment.
As Ning Chenxin recites it.
The dozens of aggressive golden Ancient Characters began to merge, ultimately forming a massive character "Dao."
Qu Lv watched this scene, his face frozen, pupils trembling as if experiencing an earthquake.
Just by looking at the "Dao" character, Qu Lv felt as if he touched upon some profound mystery, and the long-standing shackles preventing his breakthrough on the ’Dao’ path began to loosen.
"No wonder that old guy chose him; it’s no surprise he broke precedents to make junior a secluded True Disciple of Qingcheng Mountain." Qu Lv murmured softly.
What does being a secluded True Disciple mean?
As long as Qingcheng Old Daoist is in position, Qingcheng Mountain will not accept any other True Disciples!
Moreover, this also means that the other True Disciples of this generation in Qingcheng Mountain will become Ning Chenxin’s Guardians!
With this realization, Qu Lv suddenly burst into laughter: "Junior, go ahead and make your move! I, your senior brother, will handle the rest of the crisis for you!"
From then on, Qu Lv willingly became Ning Chenxin’s Guardian.
Under the powerful Dao runes of the "Dao" character, Gu You, who was comprehending the Path of Yang, had his aura fluctuate significantly!
Crack—!
As if an eggshell had shattered, the clear sound momentarily stunned everyone present.
Everyone involuntarily focused a bit of their attention on Gu You.
The surrounding Yangdao seawater turned into streams twisted like ropes, madly pouring into Gu You’s body!
This was a sign of successful enlightenment!
No one could have anticipated that the one to first comprehend the Path of Yang would be Qingcheng Mountain’s True Disciple, Gu You.
However, all this was something Chu Ran had no time to deal with.
Maintaining the Muddy World Fire Lotus while also resisting that ferocious Dao runes pressure was already straining Chu Ran’s mind.
Even with the Muddy World Fire Lotus ahead, it couldn’t fully offset the Dao runes’ pressure, and the leaked runes pressed him almost to his knees.
There was no retreat now.
Chu Ran gritted his teeth, stubbornly bracing, one hand supporting his knee, and rising with a deep growl: "Ning Ru! This last strike will decide life and death!"
With that said, Chu Ran roared, lifting his hands to the sky, pouring the last of his strength into the Muddy World Fire Lotus without caring how to deal with Chu Yan afterward.
The Muddy World Fire Lotus spun so fast it left afterimages, as if the space before Ning Chenxin was covered by the lotus!
Ning Chenxin didn’t answer, merely pointing at the "Dao" character with one hand, holding the Dao Law in the other, and then pointed toward the Muddy World Fire Lotus.
The "Dao" character, carrying an overwhelming Dao runes, oppressed the vast Muddy World Fire Lotus below!
Boom—!!!
With a huge explosion sound.
Everyone stopped attacking, turning their attention to the battlefield of Ning Chenxin and Chu Ran, all with expressions of shock.
Vice Dean Lin immediately waved a hand to release a barrier, protecting Yang Shao within.
The aftermath of this, let alone breaking the enlightenment state, just touching it slightly might injure one severely from the fire wave and Dao runes.
In the state of enlightenment, there’s no defense whatsoever.
Qu Lv similarly released a barrier to protect Gu You, who was on the verge of successful enlightenment.
The Chu Family’s First Elder also ordered the other elders to shift the formation to protect Chu Yan, who was in the Yangdao Sea Fish comprehending.
The other observing forces did the same.
Yet even so.
Except for the Chu Family’s formation, the barriers released by the other forces all trembled violently, with some even cracking.
Vice Hall Master Lin’s expression was grave, and in his eyes looking at Ning Chenxin appeared a hint of killing intent.
The Holy Sect leader also raised his head slightly, an evil light focused on Ning Chenxin beneath the Black Robe.
"This person, if not eliminated, with his Confucian Dao accomplishments, will undoubtedly be a hidden danger to the Holy Sect!"
Ning Chenxin ignored these murderous glances, keeping his eyes fixed on the sea of fire lotuses.
Under the suppression of the "Dao" character, fire lotus after image began to dissipate.
The spinning speed of the Muddy World Fire Lotus also started to slow.
Chu Ran spewed a mouthful of blood again, watching this scene, gritting his teeth, as if coming to a realization, sneered: "If a treasure of this level explodes, do you think the aftermath would be enough to swallow you... or perhaps affect Chu Yan’s enlightenment?"
Ning Chenxin didn’t respond much.
The Chu Family’s First Elder immediately roared in anger: "Chu Ran, being of the same clan, how dare you do something so desperate to Chu Yan?!"
As the First Elder of the Chu Family, he was well aware of the terrifying level of the Muddy World Fire Lotus self-destruction.
With their realms suppressed now, the formations they cast wouldn’t be able to fully withstand the self-destruction of such a level of treasure as the Muddy World Fire Lotus.
But Ning Chenxin just said: "You might as well try it."
Chu Ran snorted: "You do have some nerve."
With that,
he showed not a trace of hesitation.
Chu Ran’s right hand formed a seal, chanting a language obscure and incomprehensible.
The Muddy World Fire Lotus stopped spinning, but a destructive aura silently gathered, rising at a terrifying speed!
At this moment, Chu Ran sneered, his left palm aimed at the Muddy World Fire Lotus.
"Die..."
With that, Chu Ran’s left hand clenched tight.
Cracks began to appear on the surface of the Muddy World Fire Lotus.
From within the cracks, streams of fire light poured forth!
The surrounding seawater was evaporated, and even the space filled with the Path of Yang twisted slightly under the heatwave!
Ning Chenxin’s expression slightly tightened, holding the Dao Law in one hand while pointing at it with the other, shouting softly, "Imprison!"
As the word fell.
The "Dao" character descended upon the nearly exploding fire lotus, releasing strips of white chains which crisscrossed around the Muddy World Fire Lotus.
In just a breath, the Muddy World Fire Lotus was enclosed so tightly it was no longer visible!
But the destructive aura still filled the air.
Chu Ran took out a wheel engraved with the Dharma Seal, the Golden Light from the wheel swirling around him.
"Quite righteous, intending to bear the explosion’s power and aftermath alone?" Chu Ran sneered, "With a temperament like yours, it’ll cost your life sooner or later... no, you have no future."
With that.
A dull explosion resounded!
Just this explosion alone made the surrounding space appear with wrinkles.
Then.
The white chains hadn’t shattered yet, but they were bulging from the explosion!
Crack...
Everyone looked over in shock.
The chains began to show cracks...
