Chapter 386: 220: The Wonder of Divine Element, and The Art of Merging With Light and Dust_2
“So, this is the Divine Yuan Avatar, truly mysterious. If one explores dangerous areas, there is no need for the real body to enter. In this way, even if danger arises, it won’t threaten the real body.”
Li Xuan felt excitement in his heart.
The Divine Origin Realm he created himself was incredibly mysterious, leaving the Grand Azure Martial Dao far behind.
The Divine Yuan Avatar, within a certain range of the true body, thinks and perceives just like the original. Li Xuan might be sitting on a chair in Canglan Island,
But his consciousness is connected to the Divine Yuan Avatar.
The Divine Yuan Avatar continued to walk, slowly leaving Canglan Island. Li Xuan wanted to test how far the Divine Yuan Avatar could be before the consciousness connection is lost with the real body.
Once the consciousness connection with the real body is lost, the Divine Yuan Avatar retains only some abilities and combat instincts given by the real body, losing its autonomy and thinking.
This was quite rigid and not flexible enough.
Of course, once he breaks through the Divine Skills Realm and the Primordial Spirit condenses out, after a strand of the Primordial Spirit is infused into the Divine Yuan Avatar, it won’t be so rigid anymore.
“Twenty li.”
About twenty li away, Li Xuan felt his perception of the things the Divine Yuan Avatar saw slowly becoming blurry in his consciousness, indicating he had reached the limit.
In an instant, the Divine Yuan Avatar disappeared from the original place, transformed into Divine Yuan, and returned to his body in the blink of an eye.
“Twenty li, it’s enough.”
He had only just entered the Divine Origin Realm. With the increase in his strength, the distance will be greater.
“What if I merge the Thousand Martial Shadows into the Divine Yuan Avatar?”
A thought suddenly arose in Li Xuan’s heart.
A figure walked out, and the Divine Yuan Avatar merged into the Divine Shadow. At this moment, Li Xuan noticed a change.
The Thousand Martial Shadows seemed to have no significant changes and remained as illusory as a shadow. But after merging with the Divine Yuan Avatar, their strength has noticeably increased.
And it also gained some power of the Divine Origin Realm.
“The more Divine Shadows, the more Divine Yuan Avatars I can separate, meaning my avatars are more numerous and stronger, and if exploring dangerous places, the two can merge. If danger arises, I can sacrifice the Divine Shadows to protect the Avatar.”
Li Xuan felt excited in his heart, discovering the powerful aspect of using the Thousand Martial Shadows and the Divine Yuan Avatar in combination.
“Now that I’m in the Divine Origin Realm, I’m not afraid of the Refining God Heavenly Man with the strength I have now!”
Li Xuan instantly felt a lot safer.
Even if the Refining God Heavenly Man attacked, he wouldn’t be worried. The power of Divine Origin Realm was stronger than he had anticipated.
With the power of Divine Yuan, coupled with the God-exterminating Blade and the Sudden Wind Sword Intent, it wouldn’t be too difficult to kill the Refining God Heavenly Man, would it?
Li Xuan looked up at the summit of Canglan Island, where Xu Yan continued to cultivate and comprehend Martial Arts. In his heart, he couldn’t help but to anticipate Xu Yan comprehending the Divine Skill Realm.
Once the Divine Skill Realm is broken through, the Refining God Heavenly Man stands no chance at all, and it will be an easy task to defeat him.
Once the Divine Skills come out, who can resist?
“I can’t comprehend the Divine Skills Realm for now, but it might be possible after breaking through to the Divine Intent State.”
Li Xuan secretly shook his head, no matter how talented Xu Yan was, it was impossible for him to comprehend the martial arts of the Divine Skill Realm while in the Tongxuan Realm.
The Divine Skills Realm was too mysterious after all.
Being able to comprehend the Divine Origin Realm Cultivation Technique before breaking through to the Divine Intent State was already monstrously talented.
“The method to hide aura and form has not yet been comprehended. Should I teach this method to Xu Yan?”
Li Xuan was deep in thought.
“Let’s wait a bit longer. This aura hiding method is not quite good enough after all.”
Li Xuan decided to wait a bit longer.
Xu Yan was able to comprehend the Martial Dao of the Divine Origin Realm, and he should be able to understand some aspects of the art of hiding aura and form.
One day, as Li Xuan was studying the second page of the Book of Tai Cang, he was deep into his research, trying to remember all the Heaven and Earth Laws on the page.
“Where’s Red Cat?”
He suddenly remembered that Red Cat had been quiet these past days, usually, under the pretense of “for your own good,” it would be helping Shi’er hone his martial arts.
Whether it was pestering Shi’er, begging Su Lingxiu for medicinal pills, being cute in front of Mother Xu, or being affectionate around himself.
He released his divine intent to look at Red Cat and was somewhat startled to see it staring at a third of the array diagram, seemingly pondering something.
Red Cat even had a pen in its paw, implored Mother Xu to teach it how to write and read!
It wanted to be a cultured meow— no, a cultured tiger!
“If you truly comprehend something, that would be an unexpected joy.”
Li Xuan chuckled wryly, sure that it must have been Shi’er who, annoyed by the cat’s pestering, decided to distract Red Cat with an array diagram.
Mother Xu was happily teaching Red Cat to read, and while looking at the fragmentary array diagram, she curiously asked, “Red Cat, have you understood anything?”
Red Cat shook her head. Holding a pen in her tiny paw, she scribbled on the paper: “I know too few characters, that’s why I can’t comprehend the true meaning.”
Li Xuan watched with amusement. Seeing Red Cat, now the size of a common cat, hold a pen and write was pretty cute and likable.
Indeed, Mother Xu was also amused. She was rubbing Red Cat’s chubby head while stuffing pills into her mouth.
Red Cat was very happy eating.
Since Red Cat was interested in the array diagram, Li Xuan had the idea that perhaps Red Cat really could make some gains, and further develop the Martial Dao of great demons. He decided to draw the complete array diagram.
“Red Cat, here is the complete array diagram. Ponder over it carefully. You are a great demon, and if you can comprehend some of it, incorporating the wonders of the array diagram into yourself, you will be blessed.”
Li Xuan shoved the array diagram into Red Cat’s hands, patting her head as he did so.
As Red Cat looked at the array diagram, her head swelled the more she looked at it. She had been instructed by her master, so she couldn’t refuse to study it. She had a feeling she had been fooled by Shi’er.
She took the array diagram and left, continuing to learn and recognize words, and at the same time, to grind Shi’er’s Martial Arts.
Li Xuan sat in a chair, savouring his Spiritual Tea and reading the Book of Tai Cang, constantly memorizing the Heaven and Earth Law patterns on the second page.
The patterns on the second page were more difficult to remember and more mysterious than those on the first page, obviously involving deeper levels of the Heaven and Earth Laws.
“The array diagram has been out for a while now, but surprisingly, no one has understood anything.”
Li Xuan sighed.
It seemed impossible to find a disciple who would cultivate the strange Martial Dao in the near future.
Suddenly!
The Daoist Golden Book on his Soul Pedestal flipped open, and golden light gushed out.
“Your disciple Xu Yan has successfully derived Harmonizing with Light and Dust technique from your hiding method, completing it!”
Xu Yan had finally comprehended it.
Harmonizing with Light and Dust technique!
Li Xuan smiled; his foremost disciple never let him down.
Even if it was a highly difficult cultivation technique, he could still comprehend it!
Looking up, Xu Yan, sitting on the mountain top, appeared different.
If he hadn’t completed the Harmonizing with Light and Dust technique, one would probably overlook him at a single glance, as if he was simply a rock.
Li Xuan’s divine sense spread out, and he smiled. Xu Yan sat there, as if integrated with the grass, the stones, and the surroundings, void of any presence of a Martial Artist.
His aura was one with grass and stones.
This was the Harmonizing with Light and Dust technique!
Li Xuan retracted his divine sense, slightly smiling as he continued studying the Heaven and Earth Laws in the Book of Tai Cang.
Xu Yan was ready to go to the Ling Domain!
With this Harmonizing with Light and Dust technique in hand, he could easily avoid any pursuers, even if he provoked a powerful force and was hunted down.
“Master, this hiding technique is too mysterious, too profound, I can’t make head or tail of it. How should I comprehend it?”
Su Lingxiu’s hair was a mess, as she gripped Li Xuan’s shoulder with a gloomy face.
Li Xuan gave a wry smile. After all, Su Lingxiu’s talent was not meant for this, it was understandable that she had a hard time comprehending.
Even if Meng Chong wanted to comprehend it, he would probably take a long time, and the hiding technique he would comprehend would probably be weaker than Xu Yan’s.
“Study this hiding technique for a bit. It’s quite ordinary.”
Li Xuan smiled and transmitted the hiding technique he had compiled to Su Lingxiu.
To comprehend this hiding technique was not difficult. With Su Lingxiu’s talent, she understood it soon enough.
“Your disciple Su Lingxiu has comprehended your hiding technique. You have mastered the hiding technique.”
Su Lingxiu’s aura was withdrawn, she seemed common to the eye. Even her temperament had become ordinary, not drawing any attention.
“Master, I’ve learned it!”
Su Lingxiu squinted her eyes. She jogged off, saying, “I’m going to test senior brother, to see if he can detect my presence.”
Li Xuan shook his head. As Xu Yan had comprehended the Harmonizing with Light and Dust technique, Su Lingxiu and Meng Chong no longer needed to continue trying to comprehend it.
After all, even if they did comprehend it, it would be inferior to Xu Yan’s. There was no need to waste their time and energy.
