Chapter 23
Hongjun finished his lecture, and the crowd dispersed. On the way back, Baofu clearly felt that the rules between heaven and earth had become more apparent, with clear divisions in the classification of various powers and levels of cultivation. The originally chaotic Tao had clearly branched out into multiple streams.
Bo Xuan's heart was alert, "It seems that Hong Jun has used the opportunity of lecturing on the Tao to determine the rules of heaven and earth. It's laughable that all who have listened to the Tao, including the people of Hong Huang, have already entered Hong Jun's Tao. The Great Way of Chaos can no longer be practiced, and from now on, the Qi-refining masters of Hong Huang can only seek the Tao within Hong Jun's Tao. Hong Jun is indeed skilled in his methods, and from now on, there will be no one who can escape his grasp... Ah, well, anyway, I am just a passerby in this world, fortunately not a person of this world, otherwise I would be like them."
Bo Yu thought as he wandered, flying randomly, anyway, he was also homeless, seeing a suitable place to stay for dozens of years. Tai Yi had also asked him why he didn't take the sun star where he was born as his residence like Tai Yi did, Bo Yu just smiled and changed the subject. In fact, in the future, there would be a war between witches and demons, destroying the vast land, even if they built a residence now, who knows whether it could be preserved or not, why bother with such trouble.
At this time, Bo Fu was still wandering in the vast wilderness, cultivating and fighting as he had always done. Along the way, he once again organized his thoughts on the two Daoist scriptures he had heard before.
It turned out that the two lectures were actually the division of the world's cultivation path. Bo Fu compared it with himself and gained a lot, his Taoism made great progress. If according to the newly baked cultivation level division, he was already a Golden Immortal in terms of Taoism, only a paper's distance away from the Great Luo Golden Immortal.
He worked hard every day, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't master the technique of separating his primordial spirit and leaving his body. When he examined his own primordial spirit, he found that it was firmly combined with his physical body, which was similar to the characteristics of the witch tribe. It seemed that this was also a result of crossing over. The good thing was that from then on, any attacks on his primordial spirit and soul were as useless as a gentle breeze on his face; the bad thing was that from then on, the technique of splitting his body and the method of reincarnation were beyond his reach.
After that, Bao Fu studied the art of transformation and gained something, because the yuan god cannot be divided, so the monkey's "pulling out a handful of hair, chewing it into a mouthful of air and blowing it out to transform into countless small monkeys" is not possible. The thirty-six changes and seventy-two changes were actually researched by him.
The Thirty-Six Transformations of Heaven and the Seventy-Two Transformations of Earth are collectively known as the One Hundred and Eight Transformations of Heaven, but to him, they're nothing more than a useless trifle. Why are the Thirty-Six Transformations called the Heavenly Transmutations? It's because once you've mastered them, you'll have thirty-six lives, and even if someone kills you, it will only cost you one transformation, which can be recovered later. Once you've achieved this, you can be called "invincible". However, the transformations themselves are quite ordinary, merely allowing you to change into common birds and beasts, or even trees and rocks. In later generations, there was a pig that was said to have mastered the Thirty-Six Transformations, but looking at it now, it's all just a joke - that pig could barely recite a few incantations... What Thirty-Six Transformations?! Bah! You've disgraced the Heavenly Transmutations!
The 72 transformations are also a life-saving technique, but it's not possible to have 72 lives. To kill someone who has mastered this technique, you would need to kill them 73 times in an instant. Compared to the 36 transformations, this is somewhat disappointing. The 36 transformations can be used to instantly kill millions of people, and even if they are reduced to ashes, it only counts as one death. Later on, they will naturally come back to life at will. In other words, "there's no way to guard the corpse". On the other hand, with the 72 transformations, you can't help but be guarded by others. Therefore, in terms of its own transformation technique, the 72 transformations must surpass the 36 transformations. All creatures, objects, and treasures in the world can be transformed at will, including ancient powerful beasts that can change their shells to borrow some power to intimidate people. Although it's not possible to use the original powers of these ancient beasts, this is still an incredible transformation technique.
All of this is useless to Ba Fu, as a traverser, the thirty-six lives are completely redundant and useless. As an ancient fierce bird, the seventy-two transformations that preserve life are also not enough. What transformation can be stronger than himself?
Baifu suppressed the two kinds of transformation techniques and continued to study them deeply. After more than 500 years of research, he finally developed a transformation technique called "Hun Tian Bian". This technique has no ability to protect one's life, it is purely an offensive technique. The transformations are endless, but there are limitations. It cannot transform into plants, trees, or stones, and the shape of flying birds and beasts is fixed. No matter how many times you transform, the initial shape cannot be changed. If he transforms into a tiger, then no matter how many times he transforms into a tiger again, it will always be the same as the first time. Even if there are more stripes or fewer whiskers, it's not possible... However, there is also an advantage: you can transform into ancient strange birds and beasts, and use their powerful abilities. But there is a prerequisite - you must understand and master that power...
After he acquired the Heaven-Defying Technique, he transformed into a majestic fire dragon. Indeed, just like in the game, his Fire Attribute strength was quite impressive. He could spit out fierce flames, and his sharp claws and tail were venomous. However... "His power is far inferior to my original Fire Domain!! It's basically a reduced version of my power! But it can be used as a form in some low-power worlds where the power restriction is not too bad."
He also transformed the monsters in "Monster Hunter" one by one, playing with great relish. Speaking of those monsters, they were really not worth mentioning in the vast wilderness, but it was good that they could be used as a form of power restriction in other worlds. He had also thought about transforming into a three-legged crow to try it out - no way, the current cultivation level was not enough to simulate the strongest true fire in the fire element. Kunpeng was the same reason, but some low-level spiritual birds and beasts could be transformed at will.
On this day, Boyi wandered to a certain place. At this time, Donghuang Taiyi had already started the unification war of the demon clan, and many departments of the demon clan had surrendered. The name of Taiyi was already shaking the Hongyuan, and many demons called him "Yao Emperor". Taiyi also came up with a new title called "Emperor Jun".
Kunpeng is also a powerful figure in the vast wilderness, handling various affairs of the demon clan with great skill and wisdom. In the demon clan, he is also revered as "Demon Master". The organization of the demon clan has taken shape. One day, Donghuang Taiyi announced to the world with his mighty divine consciousness that the "Heavenly Court" of the demon clan was established on the top of Mount Buzhou.
Bo Yu heard Taiyi's announcement on the ground, and he also set up a cloud of light straight up to the top of Mount Buzhou.
For many years, Bo Fu had not come to the top of Bu Zhou Mountain. Now, he saw that the top of the mountain was tens of thousands of miles in circumference and was already filled with countless pavilions, towers, and halls, which were extremely luxurious and magnificent. The grand hall and square at the center were even more majestic and powerful. Tens of thousands of demons stood on the square in front of the hall, yet it didn't feel crowded at all.
Ba Miao carefully admired the grand hall, with intricate carvings and jade inlays, built with wooden pillars, the hall was tens of miles high and hundreds of miles wide, with jade stones paving the ground, and a copper top shaped like a mountain peak, externally inlaid with gold, pearls, and jade. The interior decorations were even more extraordinary, gathering countless heavenly treasures and earthly wonders, and there were also countless talismans and spell formations protecting it, truly radiating brilliant light that pierced the sky, and auspicious energy that filled the air. The square was also paved with golden bricks, stretching for thousands of miles, flat and smooth to an unprecedented degree, with tens of millions of large and small demons standing in formation, solemnly and respectfully. It was indeed a majestic sight, unseen before, with demonic energy piercing the sky and pressing down on the world.
Among them, several demon auras stood out, surpassing the tens of millions of demon clans. Bo Fu distinguished that one of them was Kun Peng, and a scorching hot demon aura was Tai Yi himself. There were also several other familiar demon auras, among which two originated from the same source, namely Fuxi and Nüwa.
Bo Xuan Ha Ha smiled, and also released the demonic energy on his body. A five-colored light rose up, making it impossible to look directly at him. The majestic and powerful demonic energy rushed into the sky, suppressing the demonic energy of hundreds of thousands of demons. At this moment, the group of demons parted ways, allowing Bo Xuan to enter the grand hall directly.
In the grand hall, several powerful demons had already welcomed Bo Xiang and led him to his seat at the front. The grand hall was divided into front and back halls by screens made of precious gems and heavenly silk. In the front hall, there was a jade platform with a throne on it, which was the highest seat. On either side of the throne were several other seats. Bo Xiang was led to the jade platform, where one of the thrones was his designated seat. At this moment, Taiyi was already seated on the highest throne, nodding and smiling at Bo Xiang. Kunpeng and Fuxi Nuwa were also seated on the lower thrones, exchanging greetings with Bo Xiang one by one.
The seats in the hall were soon filled, and on the jade platform, apart from Taiyi, Kunpeng, Fuxi brothers and sisters who were familiar to Bo Fu, there were several other monsters that he had not seen before. For now, they just nodded as a courtesy, without introducing each other one by one.
Look, the time has arrived, Taiyi stood up, and with a flip of his hand, a small bronze bell appeared in his palm. Taiyi slightly shook his hand, and a majestic and desolate bell sound immediately spread throughout the vast expanse of the universe. The entire world paused for a moment. "Dong Huang Bell!!! Indeed, its power is boundless!!! It can stabilize earth, water, fire, and wind, shake the three realms, suppress the flow of air, and is the supreme treasure!!!" Bo Fu thought to himself.
Taiyi spoke: "Today, our demon clan unites, establishing the Heavenly Court to govern all under heaven! We shall divide and appoint officials to stabilize the four directions!"
