Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 480 – Great Dao Body



Chapter 480 – Great Dao Body

The Spirit of Poison bet everything on one final struggle. It self-destructed its main body, causing a massive volume of poison to converge together. This was an incredibly ruthless move, but against Qin Yu, it was actually useless.

Of course, perhaps this seemed like a bit of shameless and undeserved boasting. Because the truth was that the Spirit of Poison had miscalculated things from the very start. In front of the little blue lamp’s mystical abilities, it couldn’t even cause the smallest storm.

The so-called poison immunity wasn’t something that could be broken by quantity alone. While the little blue lamp might have a limit it could tolerate, it was clear that all of this poison around it right now wasn’t anything to worry about.

The great lake of black liquid tumbled with crashing waves. Qin Yu was like a great boulder lodged at the bottom of the lake. No matter how much the waves crashed and churned, it couldn’t shake him at all.

Above his head, within a dark halo of nothingness, the little blue lamp’s light was like a deep sea. No matter how much poison rushed forth, as long as it entered Qin Yu’s body it was instantly suppressed and forced into the index finger of his right hand.

After swallowing up a massive amount of poison today, this finger was clearly undergoing a profound and wonderful transformation. For instance, more and more complex and mystical textures were appearing on the surface of his skin.

The first time Qin Yu saw them, a thought immediately leapt into his mind: rules.

While he felt this was incredulous, after verifying things over and over, Qin Yu confirmed that he wasn’t seeing things. These textures that appeared on his finger were indeed the ubiquitous yet untouchable rules of the world.

It was just that in Qin Yu’s knowledge, he had no idea which cultivation realm it was that he could directly imprint the rules onto his body.

It had to be known that he was already a Blue Sea cultivator. His combat strength was terrifying and when placed within the Land of Divinity and Demons, he was a considerable character.

Yet even he didn’t know what these rules that appeared on his finger were…even an idiot would understand that they were definitely something amazing!

Qin Yu’s intuition told him that he really struck luck this time!

So, when the Spirit of Poison discovered that half of his main body’s poison had been cleanly swallowed up by Qin Yu like an endless black hole, he could no longer maintain his composure. A look of panic started to cross his face.

He originally wanted to stuff this brat to death, but now it seems that he had dug a pit for himself and jumped in without hesitation.

Reality was cruel and his heart was drowning in tragedy. The Spirit of Poison had no choice but to accept the truth of the situation. Since this first path of ‘desperately struggling’ didn’t work, then he would hurry up and try the second path. As for freedom, dignity, and things like that, yes, they were important, but in the face of life or death, they could all screw out of the way!

I haven’t truly stood beneath the light of the sun, so how can I die here?

But what left the Spirit of Poison horrified was that he couldn’t cause any hesitation in Qin Yu. Qin Yu’s swallowing was cruel and merciless and he had a stance as if he would never stop no matter what.

Indeed, this brat was a callous and stone-hearted individual! Unfortunately, this understanding was as useless as a fart. The Spirit of Poison only knew that if this continued much longer, he would die for sure!

60%...70%...80%...the Spirit of Poison was born from a trillion poisons. Not all of the poison needed to be wrested away. Once the amount was reduced to a certain degree, he would be unable to maintain his consciousness and his wisdom and willpower would collapse and dissipate amid the world.

In his fear, the Spirit of Poison’s attitude became increasingly polite and servile.

At first, it was, “If you don’t stop now, I will die together with you!”

Later, it became, “Your Excellency, please stop. I am willing to lower my head and submit to you.”

To, “Forgive me, I am willing to serve and be used by you in the future.”

In the end, the Spirit of Poison only sobbed, saying that he would agree to any and all conditions as long as he could live.

Unfortunately, to the current Qin Yu, the appearance of the rules on his finger was more important than anything else. Everything that the Spirit of Poison said was tossed into the very back of his mind. As more and more poisons were absorbed, the textures on his finger became increasingly complete. Slowly, a strange aesthetic sense of beauty appeared.

Qin Yu had a feeling that once it was completed, some incredible changes might occur. As for what these changes were, he was looking forward to them with great anticipation.

When the black lake was nearly dried up and the vast continent he stood on was reduced to only a hundred some miles, his body suddenly trembled. A faint trace of warm energy surged from within his body and entered his eyes. Then, the world in front of him became different.

Phantoms were reflected in his pupils, appearing all throughout the heavens and earth. If one looked in from afar, they would find that these phantoms formed the shape of a square. And beyond this square, there was an even greater phantom of the world, one that seemed as limitless and endless as the sea of stars in the heavens.

Qin Yu realized that this square he saw was the internal world of the Sealed Pagoda. As for the even greater phantom beyond that, it represented the entire Land of Divinity and Demons.

When a cultivator entered the Divine Soul realm, they could ‘see’ the rules of the world and gradually borrow, control, and even change them to obtain a greater power. But, what this relied on was the resonance between a strong soul and the world.

And what Qin Yu saw now with his own eyes was the omnipresent strength of rules that existed throughout the world. As for what this represented and what possibilities it contained, while Qin Yu couldn’t fully understand it now, just thinking about its potential left him excited.

After a moment of hesitation, Qin Yu lifted his right hand and gently stroked the void in front of him. Different from his other fingers, this index finger had a clear feeling of distinctly touching something.

In the next moment, strong winds surged. The void violently trembled and cracks were torn open. The entire world shook as a scene of destruction appeared.

The sphere of light that suppressed the Spirit of Poison was only able to resist for a moment before it was crushed to pieces by this immense strength.

At this moment, the Sealed Pagoda could no longer care about licking its wounds all alone. It suddenly roared out in anger, “Qin Yu, what are you doing!?” In truth, it was actually even more shocked, thinking: how did you do that!?

Qin Yu’s face paled. Within this shaking space, he definitely did not feel good. But, the shock in his heart was more intense than what the Sealed Pagoda was feeling.

He never imagined that just trying to move some of the rules in front of him would cause such a terrifying scene, one that even damaged the Sealed Pagoda.

This caused alarms to ring out in Qin Yu’s mind. From now on he absolutely could not casually move the phantom of rules that he didn’t understand, otherwise he would be the first one to suffer for it!

“My apologies, I…uh…I won’t do that in the future…” Qin Yu vaguely mumbled. But at this time, the Sealed Pagoda didn’t press him for more answers, because it was still stunned from shock.

“How did you do that?”

It couldn’t help but ask this question.

Qin Yu hesitated for a moment. He lifted his finger that now didn’t seem unusual at all and said, “I only know that this is the Spirit of Poison helping me. But as for the true reason, I am not too sure.”

His eyes flashed. “But I seemed to have obtained an incredible ability. However, to find out exactly what it is and what its limits are, I will need to experiment a few more times.”

The Sealed Pagoda didn’t even think about it before directly refusing. “Please get out before you do any experiments!”

Qin Yu revealed an apologetic expression. “It isn’t too convenient for me outside. But don’t worry, I am confident I won’t cause such a big stir next time.”

The Sealed Pagoda hesitated over and over before it reluctantly agreed. But from its expression it was clearly worried.

Qin Yu cupped his hands together in thanks. Then, he looked down at the quietly disappearing black liquid beneath him and the Spirit of Poison that was pretending to be dead. He coldly smiled.

His five fingers stroked the void and his index finger roused the world’s rules. But this time, what he stirred was the path of metal’s slaughter rules that he was able to completely control.

Whoosh –

A brilliant crescent-shaped silver-white sword light appeared above his head. Then, like a sword that supported the heavens, it slashed down. The remaining black continent, or perhaps it should be called a black island at this point, was directly severed in half!

“Ahhh!” There was a pitiful scream. Between the two halves of the black island, black liquid oozed out. But just as this black liquid appeared it was directly destroyed, as if annihilated by some fierce and violent strength.

The remnants merged together. Then, in front of Qin Yu, the Spirit of Poison appeared, his appearance the same as it had been at the start. Unfortunately, the Spirit of Poison’s handsome face was now filled with fear and pain and he completely lacked his previous elegance and bravado.

“My lord, mercy! Please forgive me!”

The Spirit of Poison’s greatest strength was poison, but this was clearly useless against Qin Yu. Moreover, he had just experienced how fierce Qin Yu was and the last bits of resistance had blown apart. All he thought was that this boy was definitely playing the role of a pig to eat the tiger. In fact, this definitely wasn’t a boy at all but an extremely old and perverted freak of an existence! No wonder this fellow’s heart was so black and his hand so ruthless…he had to hurry up and beg for mercy, otherwise he wouldn’t have the chance to do so if he waited any longer.

Qin Yu’s eyes flashed with pleasant surprise. It really was as he thought. If he stimulated the path of metal, causing the rules around him to change, then he could use this index finger to compel them. Moreover, the strength seemed even stronger than his own all-out attack.

Didn’t this mean that if he comprehended more rules in the future, he would be able to easily move them and erupt with a prestige and power no weaker than supernatural arts? Moreover, the most terrifying aspect of this was that Qin Yu had only moved a finger to do this; there had been almost no losses to him.

To some extent, Qin Yu had great potential to become a moving cannon in the future. Moreover, there was no cooldown or rest. The endurance of this was so high that it could be called abnormal, abnormal to the point of leaving all others gasping for breath. Mm…perhaps it was time to give himself an overbearing name. For instance, Blaster Master Qin, Long Lasting Qin, All Day Qin…

He shook his head, flinging all these foolish thoughts away. Still, he couldn’t help but twist his lips in a bright and winning smile. Then, a beautiful thought popped up in his mind. Ignoring the pleading Spirit of Poison, he quickly asked the little blue lamp. Unfortunately, the answer he obtained wasn’t a good one.

The little blue lamp said a great deal, but the general meaning was like this: in its current state, the little blue lamp could only help Qin Yu transform an extremely small part of his body – just his finger.

As for anything more, he could forget about it. He should stop fantasizing too much.

However, Qin Yu still learned some important information from the little blue lamp. For instance, the Great Dao Body. This should be the name used for the finger that was covered with rules. Unfortunately his Great Dao Body was incredibly incomplete. The only part of his body that was qualified to meet this standard was his finger.

It was rumored that what lay beyond the Calamity Immortal realm was the Great Dao realm. Existences of this level were able to see through all things in this world and control all rules in their hands. Could the Great Dao Body be related to this boundary? Moreover, there was a hidden meaning to the little blue lamp’s words. In its current state, it could only help Qin Yu’s finger reach the state of the Great Dao Body. Did this mean that as it grew stronger and stronger, it could transform more of Qin Yu’s mortal body into the Great Dao Body?

Qin Yu’s thoughts were excited and his mood surged like a tide. A long time later he managed to calm himself down. Although the results of his inquiry weren’t satisfying, he couldn’t complain with his current harvests.

It was only then that Qin Yu discovered the politely kneeling Spirit of Poison that was on the verge of collapse. He immediately understood the current situation.

The index finger of his right hand had taken on the state of the Great Dao Body, and even now it could hold more poison. But, the current Spirit of Poison’s strength was at most 10% of his original state. Even if Qin Yu swallowed up the rest of him, he couldn’t promote his finger.

But if he left him alive…

If he didn’t know the answer, he naturally needed to ask an expert. Qin Yu opened his mouth and said, “Sealed Pagoda, should I allow this Spirit of Poison to live?”

The Sealed Pagoda was silent for several breaths of time. It said, “Master has a power comparable to the Myriad Poison Body. There is no need for you to fear the Spirit of Poison growing in the future, so leaving him alive is the best choice. This is because the Spirit of Poison can naturally absorb all poisons in the world and breed various poisons so that they grow endlessly. He might be of use to master in the future.”

Qin Yu’s first thought was that his future Great Dao Body would have to depend on this Spirit of Poison. This fellow was simply an endless source of poison for him!

Then there was nothing else to say; he had to let him live!

“Spirit of Poison, in part because it is difficult for something like you to be born, and also because you can aid me in the future, I will forgive you today and allow you to live. In the future, you must stay in the Sealed Pagoda and work hard to condense poisons. I guarantee that as long as you perform well, I might be able to return your freedom to you in the future.”

The Spirit of Poison bowed repeatedly, not even arguing against any of the conditions. Only the heavens knew what sort of mental torture he had just endured.

To be able to live on was a good fortune gifted by the heavens. How could he dare to argue anymore?

All of Qin Yu’s actions had successfully set up an image within the Spirit of Poison’s heart, one that was cruel and evil and vicious and utterly ruthless.
