Chapter 1717 A Turning Point, Shock!
Thoughts flowed freely.
Cheng Buzheng's thoughts suddenly paused.
An indescribable sense of unease gripped his soul silently, like an undercurrent.
His gaze flashed like lightning, locking onto the two floating structural diagrams in his mind's eye. An absurd yet undeniable thought sprouted from the ground:
"Duh! That's weird!"
"How come both of these construction diagrams are imprinted with Daoist script?"
He was perfectly clear-headed and knew that the new structural diagram, which had been deduced and refined by the Creation Disc, had reached a state of flawless simplicity and should not contain any Daoist script at all!
The Dao is the manifestation of rules, communicating with the great power of heaven and earth.
The small dish that uses the deduction value as its power source should only have the purest and most original array formation after the deduction!
But the reality he was facing was beyond his expectations.
"wrong!
The deduction value has no such great power to drive the small disc to analyze the Dao text.
Moreover, there was no information related to Dao script just now.
There's definitely something fishy going on here!
Thinking of this.
Cheng Buzheng instantly focused his mind, like a stabilizing needle probing the mysteries of the sea. He poured his boundless divine sense into the two construction diagrams, placing every scratch and every line under an invisible magnifying glass, examining them carefully and comparing them repeatedly.
A moment.
His sharp, hawk-like gaze was fixed firmly on the structural diagram derived from the small dish.
More accurately...
It's on that structural diagram, on those so-called "Taoist" symbols that are abruptly embedded in it!
Cheng Buzheng held his breath and focused his attention to the limit, his gaze sweeping over the strange symbols that shimmered with a dim halo.
At first glance, it seemed ancient and mysterious, which was in line with common sense.
However, the more intently one deduces, the clearer and more glaring the hidden disharmony becomes.
Surprising!
It's really hard to reconcile!
The mottled symbols and the surrounding intricate array patterns did not blend seamlessly or appear perfectly natural.
Instead, it subtly exudes a sense of abrupt tearing apart.
It's like a skilled craftsman forcibly piecing together a piece of fine silk with a piece of rough, coarse linen, resulting in contrasting textures and opposing lusters!
The connections between them are sluggish and distorted, lacking the natural fluency and ease with which ordinary Daoist runes are deeply rooted in the Daoist foundation.
It was as if an invisible chasm existed between the two, which was brutally merged by some external force, connecting in form but breaking in meaning, merely existing in appearance!
“This scene…is completely different from what it was back then!” Cheng Buzheng frowned deeply.
This was absolutely not the "Daoist script" conception he had perceived when he was copying that world-shaking array that covered the boundless forbidden sea!
Within that grand formation, the relationship between Dao runes and basic runes is like the roots of a tree penetrating deep into the soil; each Dao rune carries the immense will of heaven and earth.
Rune veins are the precise guide and carrier of its power.
Even a fleeting glance reveals the profound, unending resonance of the universe between the two.
Instead of the current state of... fragmented, rigid, superficial harmony and lifeless stillness!
Even more deadly is…
Deep within the sea of consciousness, the number of Dao characters marked on the two structural diagrams differed drastically, as different as heaven and earth!
What was particularly alarming was that Cheng Buzheng's primordial spirit, which had been tempered and was exceptionally sensitive to the power of laws, was completely unable to detect even the slightest trace of the lingering power of heaven and earth from the disguised "Dao script"!
Cold, hollow, merely a shell.
They... are more like some kind of useless decoration that was artificially attached afterward!
"Could it be?!"
Like lightning ripped across the night sky, a startling conjecture suddenly exploded in Cheng Buzheng's mind.
Immediately afterwards, an uncontrollable surge of joy welled up in my heart!
“Yes!
It must be so!
This is not a mark of nature, but a secret door laid down by that 'old island-moving thief'!
The more I thought about it, the clearer and more unbreakable this idea became!
All irrationality and incongruity stem from this.
Thoughts flashed like lightning, actions were decisive!
Cheng Buzheng, who was sitting cross-legged on the Flowing Cloud Dharma Bed, suddenly became blurred, and his slender hands had already drawn afterimages in front of his chest!
"Form the hand seal! Transformation!"
Between the opening and closing of his lips and teeth, he uttered the true principles of Tao.
With nimble fingers, starlight seemed to dance at their fingertips, and beams of mysterious and profound light burst forth, intertwining and unfolding in the air three feet in front of them!
Chi chi chi…
The dazzling light converged and shaped amidst the subtle sounds, revealing the traces of the Dao.
In the blink of an eye, a precise and miniature array diagram appeared, suspended in the air, the diagram flowing continuously, its halo shimmering.
Cheng Buzheng's eyes were like cold blades, and his fingers moved like a bowstring.
It popped up suddenly!
Like a dragon swimming into the sea, it precisely poured into the core area of that miniature array!
Om-!
Inside the quiet room, a brilliant light suddenly burst forth without warning!
The miniature array seemed to be infused with wild vitality, suddenly bursting out with a dazzling light far exceeding anything seen before!
An unprecedented, rhythmic, and mysterious vibration emanated from the core of the array, affecting the spiritual patterns on the four walls and causing the entire quiet room to tremble slightly!
"Sure enough!"
Witnessing this completely different "anomaly," Cheng Buzheng, perched on the cloud bed, finally let the long-suppressed smile on his lips burst forth like a spring breaking through ice, revealing a sense of exhilaration and ecstasy as if he had mastered the universe.
"Haha... Heaven is on my side!"
It is fitting that I have received this blessing!
If not for the favor of fate, I would have almost missed this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Amidst the ecstasy, a chilling sense of respect also crept into my heart.
"What a splendid island-moving master!"
As expected of a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator, his actions are truly unpredictable and elusive!
They were able to subtly disguise their hidden techniques as Daoist script that was almost unrecognizable to anyone…
His gaze was deep, hinting at lingering fear.
"Without the miraculous deductions of the Creation Disc, which allows one to discern the origins, how could cultivators of this realm, with their limited knowledge, distinguish this ingenious disguise from the vast sea of true and false Daoist texts? They fear..."
Even after a century of study, one still cannot grasp the essence!
Let alone outsiders…
Cheng Buzheng took a deep breath, and a chill ran down his spine as he recalled how he had almost been deceived himself.
"Even though I pride myself on having mastered the art of formations, I almost fell for it!"
His mind raced:
"It seems that... perhaps only the ancestor of the Purgatory Clan, who came from the Upper Realm and was accustomed to the mysteries of all laws, could possibly see through this situation?"
Thinking back to that critical moment of alertness and reversal, a strong sense of relief overwhelmed him:
"Fortunately! Fortunately!
"With unwavering resolve, I never gave up... Otherwise, this 'blind spot' scheme of the Island-Moving Venerable would have slipped through my fingers right before my very eyes!"
Just as Cheng Buzheng was in a state of turmoil…
Meanwhile, in the forbidden seas, deep within the eastern void.
The enormous golden cocoon of law light pulsed silently like a heart.
Within the cocoon of light, Cheng Buzheng's avatar lowered his eyes and swept over the mysterious "array foundation cushion" floating in front of him, slowly exhaling a long, turbid breath containing Daoist rhyme.
"Just now, the main body personally verified it with a hand seal array. The tricks hidden by Venerable Ban Island should lie in these fake Dao inscriptions!"
His voice was deep, yet every word carried immense weight.
"Although I'm 99% certain, but..."
His gaze was sharp as he stared at the "futon," a faint, almost imperceptible hint of seriousness still lingering in the depths of his eyes.
"The path to immortality is unpredictable, and nothing in this world is absolute!"
Without personally witnessing this 'futon' return to one's true nature... one cannot remain at ease!
A brief pause, like time and space frozen in time.
In the next instant, the decision was made!
"Without further delay, get started!"
Immediately, this Dharma body suddenly emitted a chilling aura.
In an instant, the ten fingers of both hands transformed into a phantom, outlining a thousand mysterious hand seals and magic marks in the void!
With each touch of the fingertip, invisible threads of law condense, like woven celestial silk.
"Printed, the Dharma revealed!"
A soft shout caused the void to tremble.
The suspended "futon" trembled slightly in response, and the originally dormant array patterns on its surface suddenly became brightly lit!
A series of scarlet, blood-red runes, imbued with immense power, pierced through the surface light, emerging like a slumbering, furious dragon!
But this is just the beginning!
Cheng Buzheng's seal technique did not stop; instead, it became increasingly complex and profound, his ten fingers plucking the strings of a celestial zither.
As the seals circulate, the luster on the surface of the "futon" peels away layer by layer, and deeper mysteries are forcibly revealed!
Countless crisscrossing, deep-light-shimmering array patterns emerged like ripples on water.
At the core of those crucial array nodes, ancient and weathered "Daoist" symbols also appeared!
Now!
Cheng Buzheng's eyes suddenly flashed with a captivating light!
The hand seal he was forming suddenly changed, simplifying from complex to a single, powerful, and destructive hand seal!
"Fake text, shattered path, swiftly!"
With a flick of the fingertip, an invisible blade, condensed with immense primordial spirit and magical power, ignored spatial barriers and instantly struck the first target, the "Dao script"!
Hiss—Buzz!
The "Dao Wen" that was hit first flickered rapidly, as if struggling to survive, and emitted a sharp buzzing sound on the verge of collapse!
Then,
A flash!
Two flashes!
…After the nine flashes and nine disappearances, it was like nine final, poignant songs echoing through the void.
A soft explosion!
The pseudo-Dao script could no longer maintain its form, and its body suddenly twisted and collapsed!
Before the fragments could fall, they transformed into specks of pure spiritual light of law, completely dissipating into the radiance of the golden cocoon of light, leaving no trace!
And then look at the array pattern network that was originally connected to it…
The light remains!
Operating normally!
The array patterns are completely undamaged!
It was as if what had just been removed was merely a disgusting nodule attached to it, and the essence of the great formation remained completely unaffected.
It even appears more transparent and lively.
"Humph!"
Upon seeing this, Cheng Buzheng's lips curled into a cold, knowing smile, and the last weight in his heart finally lifted.
Just as expected!
These forged Daoist inscriptions have a shallow connection to the core of this formation; they are nothing more than parasites clinging to the nodes of the network!
Even if all of them are removed, it's like scraping the bone to remove a sore; the foundation of the formation remains undamaged, and its purity is even enhanced!
With a single moment of clarity, all the pent-up emotions in one's heart vanish.
Cheng Buzheng's gaze had already fallen on the second disguised Daoist symbol. There was no more hesitation in his eyes, only a cold determination and a sharp edge to break through evil!
With both hands raised again, spiritual light swirled around the ten fingers, and a series of more refined and destructive hand seals bloomed once more at the fingertips!
"The law moves with the seal—break!"
...
Time flows by in precise and efficient destruction.
One…two…three…
As Cheng Buzheng's hands moved swiftly, the profound and mysterious magic-breaking hand seals landed precisely.
One by one, the counterfeit "Daoist inscriptions" flickered, collapsed, and vanished into nothingness amidst soft chimes...
Like removing a malignant tumor, the operation becomes more and more skillful, and the movements become more and more relaxed and smooth.
Until the last "Dao Rune" emitting an unusual faint light, it was struck by the sharp hand seal unleashed by Cheng Buzheng with a flick of his finger...
Boo!
It emitted a faint, crisp sound like a bubble bursting, and then vanished completely!
Everything is quiet!
Cheng Buzheng's hand movements froze instantly.
He held his breath, and his divine sense surged forth like a tidal wave, completely enveloping the "array foundation cushion" in front of him, which had been freed of "false text"!
Perception heightened to its limit, his eyes fixed intently on the ancient 'futon'.
Success or failure...
In this very instant!
Om-!
In that fleeting, deathly silence that seemed to freeze time itself...
The "futon" floating in the air suddenly burst forth with a deep yet supremely powerful Daoist resonance!
It's like withered trees coming back to life, or stagnant water being revitalized!
The next moment——
Rumble!
An indescribable and immense change has occurred!
Suddenly, the previously hidden passage beneath the "futon" became clearly visible!
It contains an endless pure "Origin of the Law of Blood", which is condensed like liquid blood diamond, and is being wildly stirred up by the invisible force of the celestial waterfall!
Billions of fundamental particles of law, shimmering with pure crimson light, roared and surged forth along the invisible passage, like raging dragons suddenly awakened from an ancient slumber.
Upward! Upward!
The water surged and overflowed towards the location of the "futon," like a dam bursting!
"It's done!!!"
Witnessing this scene...
Cheng Buzheng could no longer suppress the turbulent emotions within him!
This scene reveals an undeniable fact—
All the vicious secrets laid down by the Island-Moving Venerable have been completely eliminated by Cheng Buzheng!
This "futon" has regained its original connection, demonstrating its miraculous effect of refining the source of boundless pure laws!
Heaven has not forsaken me!
After countless calculations and endless waiting, I have finally... knocked on the door of this great destiny!
This sound reverberated through the void, full of vigor and high spirits!
After many agonizing experiences, things finally took a turn for the better, and a glimmer of hope appeared!
Then, he didn't hesitate for a second!
Cheng Buzheng's Dharma body suddenly trembled, the void beneath his feet rippled slightly, and his figure swept past like a ghost, instantly sitting upright on the "futon" that was frantically devouring the blood essence!
My eyes are gently closed, and my mind is clear and empty!
moment--
A profound and all-encompassing understanding, seemingly containing endless truths of blood, flowed through Cheng Buzheng's heart like a gentle stream.
Vast, pure, and primordial laws and information surged down!
Almost at the moment of contact—
Cheng Buzheng's primordial spirit trembled as he clearly touched the most fundamental and initial wisp of basic rhythm belonging to the Great Dao of "Blood"!
Not even a breath!
The profound mysteries of the construction, evolution, destruction, and rebirth of the first blood law rhythm have been thoroughly analyzed, understood, and imprinted on the foundation of the primordial spirit by Cheng Buzheng with great eagerness!
The understanding of the laws instantly crossed that invisible threshold!
His energy suddenly surged!
A nascent, profound Dao essence, imbued with a strong aura of blood and spirit, rose from Cheng Buzheng's body like the rising sun!
This signifies that a brand new, vast, and supreme path has opened its first heavy door to him!
