Chapter 784 - Dragon-Slaying Immortal-Killing
Li Huowang had returned from the Righteous Monastery. He was back in his simple bedroom, looking at his reflection.
He saw seven eyeballs on his forehead, which seemed to have a consciousness of their own as they stared straight back at Li Huowang.
These were seven secrets, and Li Huowang understood their value.
One eyeball alone had been able to determine the location of the head of the Sitting Oblivion Dao, Shai Zi. If Li Huowang wanted, he could use these seven secrets to uncover any secret in the world.
At this moment, however, Li Huowang’s primary concern was how Xuan Pin had helped the other Simings in Baiyu Capital.
Although the problem had been resolved, Li Huowang was still worried about the origins of this thing.
Li Huowang’s expression became solemn when he recalled his past experiences.
That being had casually given him such a precious thing, and the only thing Li Huowang understood about the being was its hair-like texture.
At this moment, his memories had disappeared. He could only understand what had happened before by relying on the notes he had written when he still had his memories.
Even though Li Huowang wrote the notes himself, they still felt unfamiliar to him when he read them.
“The Siming who controls all secrets...?” Based on his personal experience, this Siming could easily uncover or conceal all secrets.
Anything that was concealed could become a secret, including a period of time, an object, or even an entire timeline different from his own!
Unlike Ji Zai and Ba-Hui, this unnamed Siming was obviously very mysterious and powerful.
The only thing that reassured him slightly was that this Siming didn’t seem to be aligned with the Dharma Sect, at least for now.
Still, if we haven’t defeated the Dharma Sect with such a powerful Siming as an ally, just how strong is the other side? Li Huowang thought silently.
As he spoke, Xuan Pin began to demonstrate to Li Huowang. “For men, the left foot goes first. For women, the right hand leads. The left hand follows, with the right hand forming the Taiyi gesture. The left hand follows again, with the right hand forming the Siming gesture for longevity. The left hand follows the right hand to form the Tianguan gesture.”
As Xuan Pin explained, his three pairs of hands emerged from his Daoist robes and coordinated to form various gestures.
“Step into the Yang stance and recite with me: ?????????????????????????????”
The incantation from Xuan Pin’s mouth was incredibly cryptic, but Li Huowang immediately understood its meaning. Among the positions of the twenty-eight constellations, the Purple Star is the golden beam that supports the jade column.
As Xuan Pin continued step by step, the so-called Dragon-Slaying Immortal-Killing Array became imprinted into Li Huowang’s mind.
The Imperial Preceptor raised the Constellation Sword and pointed it forcefully at the sky. Two Dragon Veins flew over from afar, coiling around the gigantic bronze tree. One of them was Gao Zhijian.
As the two Dragon Veins settled on the bronze tree, the tree brightened significantly, shifting from its original color to a shade of gold.
The clouds in the sky dispersed and revealed stars. Xuan Pin and those beside him continued to chant and perform rituals as the sound of dragon roars echoed in the air. The Dragon Veins connected with the Earth Veins, altering the landscape and Feng Shui across the world. The stars moved aside and revealed a patch of pitch-black sky.
Li Huowang finally understood why this secret required seven secrets to exchange. In that extreme darkness, he saw a massive jade door—the Ox Tail Gate.
A vast, multi-eyed creature was looking down through the Ox Tail Gate.
As Xuan Pin chanted and performed rituals, the Imperial Preceptor raised the Constellation Sword and lifted three Nine-Dragons Light-Emitting Talismans.
“With bare feet, urgently tread the Heavenly Gate. The energy of the Yin demons invades the south while the Nine Dragons rise and return the sun’s rays. The sky clears as brilliance spreads across the vast universe. The evil Yin spirits perish, their shadows scattered. Om, Black Wheel Deity, heavenly light piercing the sun, obey the command urgently!”
The gold talismans on the Imperial Preceptor’s sword ignited instantly as dragon roars echoed in the air. Golden dragon bodies rapidly climbed from the bronze tree onto everyone on the altar.
Immediately, dragon scales and horns began to appear on everyone. They tore through their clothes and exposed deformed dragon scales as dragon qi emanated from them.
Conversely, the Dragon Veins on the bronze tree weakened, and numerous withered corpses hung all over the bronze tree.
