Chapter 642 The Laws of Chaos
Chu Yang has an extremely profound understanding of formations, and he has also studied the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation for a long time. The power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation that he can unleash is also extremely strong!
"Roar!" The Chaos Spiritual Root seemed to sense the danger, letting out an angry roar and wildly waving its vines, trying to break through the sword formation's blockade.
However, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation was not so easy to break through. Within the sword formation, sword energy raged and killing intent lurked everywhere. The Chaos Spiritual Root struggled left and right, but it could not break through the sword formation's blockade.
"Haha, let's see where you can run now!" Chu Yang laughed triumphantly upon seeing this.
The sword formation grew stronger and stronger, and the Chaos Spiritual Root gradually became unable to withstand it. Wounds began to appear on its body, and dark green sap kept flowing out, emitting a pungent, fishy smell.
"It seems that the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is really useful!" Chu Yang was secretly delighted. It seemed that the four Immortal Slaughtering Swords he borrowed from his master had really helped him a lot.
To protect the golden gourd, the Chaos Spiritual Root had to contract its defenses and temporarily burrow into the gourd.
"You think I can't escape just because I'm hiding inside the gourd?"
"Now!" Chu Yang reacted quickly, seizing the opportunity to combine the four swords of Zhuxian into one, transforming them into a sword beam that reached the heavens and the earth, slashing towards the golden gourd.
Chu Yang wasn't worried that this sword strike would destroy the gourd. After all, even the vines had lasted this long, so the gourd that grew from them must be even stronger!
"boom!"
The sword's edge struck the golden gourd with a deafening roar, causing the entire space to tremble violently.
However, the golden gourd only flashed with light for a moment, and then nothing more happened.
"this……"
Chu Yang stared wide-eyed at the scene before him in disbelief. His full-force attack hadn't even broken through the gourd's skin? The gourd's defensive capabilities were simply insane!
"Damn it, what the hell is this thing made of?!" Chu Yang couldn't help but swear, feeling utterly defeated.
He was a quasi-saint, wielding a supreme innate treasure, yet he couldn't even cut open a gourd. How could he bear this?
Chu Yang refused to believe it and, with a fierce determination, wielded the Zhuxian Sword with great force, hacking wildly at the golden gourd.
Sparks flew everywhere, and a deafening roar shook the heavens.
However, the golden gourd was completely unharmed, its surface as smooth as ever, without even a white mark.
"I refuse to believe it!"
Chu Yang was panting heavily, feeling like a fool putting on a great show; this gourd was harder than a turtle shell.
His magical power was draining away like a flood; if this continued, he would be completely drained.
"I need to think differently..." Chu Yang slumped to the ground, the Zhuxian Sword humming as he put it away.
He stared at the runes on the gourd, which wriggled like tadpoles and exuded a mysterious aura.
"This thing... why does it look so familiar?" Chu Yang frowned, racking his brains.
In the primordial world, Chu Yang was considered a master of formations and had a deep understanding of various runes, but he had never seen the runes on this gourd before.
"Wait a minute..." Chu Yang slapped his thigh hard, almost sending himself flying. "This...this couldn't be a fusion law rune that devours worlds, could it?!"
"If this gourd is truly related to the Law of Fusion... could it be a rune of the Law of Chaos?"
Chu Yang couldn't help but gasp.
If this thing is a Chaos Law rune, then can he...
Thinking of this, Chu Yang didn't dare to be negligent and quickly began to deduce these runes.
He combined his understanding of formations with his speculations about the laws of fusion in an attempt to find a way to learn.
At this point, the desire to obtain this treasure is no longer so important; instead, comprehending the laws and runes on it has become the top priority!
Time ticked by, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Chu Yang's forehead. These runes were extremely complex, like a giant maze, leaving him lost within them.
He tried various methods, but could not get it right.
"Don't underestimate this tiny rune; it contains so many fundamental laws! Luck, truly luck!"
Chu Yang was overjoyed. This was like comparing the result with the process and then working backward. Although it was still difficult, it was much simpler than starting from scratch!
"If I can fully understand the runes on this gourd, I might even be able to comprehend the true laws of chaos!"
Thinking of this, Chu Yang felt another surge of excitement!
Chu Yang sat down cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed, as if he were an old monk in deep meditation.
The golden gourd floated in front of him, and the tadpole-like runes moved slowly in his eyes, like stars twinkling in the night sky.
At first, these runes were chaotic and without any discernible pattern, which gave Chu Yang a headache.
But he did not give up. Instead, he calmed down and incorporated his understanding of the principles into the process.
Gradually, he discovered that these runes were not simply a combination of different elements, but rather contained a special rhythm, like the Daoist rhythm of heaven and earth, mysterious and unpredictable.
"Interesting..." Chu Yang's lips curled into a smile, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
He felt as if he had entered a completely new world, where everything around him had disappeared, leaving only him and the runes.
He was so engrossed in it that he forgot about time and himself, as if he had become one with the world.
As his understanding of runes deepened, the magic power within him began to change, becoming purer and more powerful.
A wisp of chaotic energy flowed within his body, merging with his magical power to form a completely new force.
This power was stronger and more mysterious than his previous power, which made him feel extremely excited and thrilled.
"Hahaha, coming to the Chaos this time was definitely the right decision!" Chu Yang was extremely excited. As time went by, his cultivation level also began to change.
"If I continue cultivating like this, I even have a premonition that it won't be long before I reach the realm of a Primordial Golden Immortal!"
Just as Chu Yang was pondering, the Chaos Spiritual Root seemed to sense his change. The once quiet vines began to dance wildly, like giant pythons that had gone mad, sweeping towards Chu Yang.
"You're courting death!" Chu Yang snorted coldly, and the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation was activated instantly, severing all the vines.
As Chu Yang's strength increased, the power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation also became more formidable.
The broken vines let out a mournful howl, and green sap gushed out like a torrential downpour.
However, the juices did not fall on Chu Yang; instead, they were blocked by the barrier formed by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
The Chaos Spiritual Root seemed to be enraged, and its vines danced even more wildly, its attacks becoming increasingly powerful.
However, all of this was in vain. The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation was as solid as a rock, and no matter how it attacked, it could not be shaken in the slightest.
Chu Yang ignored the external distractions and focused entirely on comprehending the runes.
He knew that this was a crucial moment for his breakthrough in strength, and he could not afford to make any mistakes.
Chu Yang's strength had already reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. He originally planned to sever his three corpses and achieve the Quasi-Saint realm, but he never expected to have this opportunity today.
At this moment, Chu Yang no longer intends to pursue the Quasi-Saint realm. Instead, he will follow the path of the Chaos Demon God and others, aiming to directly attain the Great Luo realm and become a Primordial Great Luo.
Time passed second by second, and Chu Yang exuded a powerful aura. This aura was as vast as the sea and as deep as an abyss, as if it would devour the entire space.
The Chaos Spiritual Root trembled upon sensing this aura, its once fierce eyes now filled with terror.
Time, in the midst of chaos, has almost no reference point.
Chu Yang was immersed in the ocean of runes, like a greedy child absorbing endless knowledge.
As his understanding of runes deepened, the chaotic energy within him grew increasingly concentrated.
As a result, his cultivation level also rose accordingly, steadily advancing towards the realm of Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian.
The outside world has been completely transformed.
The Chaos Spiritual Root sensed the powerful aura emanating from Chu Yang, and like a rabbit seeing an eagle, fear seeped into its very bones.
It no longer hid, but frantically waved its vines, like a crazed octopus, waving its tentacles and attacking the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation again and again.
However, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation is the number one killing formation in the primordial world, and it cannot be broken by anyone other than the Four Sages. Although this Chaos Spiritual Root is powerful, it cannot shake this impregnable defense.
"Hmph, it's too late to retaliate now!" Chu Yang sneered, not even lifting his eyelids, and continued to immerse himself in his own world.
Time flies like an arrow; a hundred years pass in the blink of an eye.
Chu Yang finally comprehended all the runes on the gourd, and only needed the final opportunity to break through to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.
"It's a pity that this last bit has troubled me for nearly thirty years! If I had enough time, I would definitely be able to break through within a hundred years!"
With the Great Tribulation of Gods about to begin in the Primordial World, Chu Yang doesn't plan to linger here any longer. He will return to the Primordial World after retrieving the remnants of the Chaos Demon God Yuan Tu.
Chu Yang opened his eyes, and two beams of light shot out like sharp swords, piercing through the chaotic mist.
"My strength has reached its peak; it's time to try and break through this gourd's defenses!"
Chu Yang took a deep breath, condensed the surging magical power within his body into his fingertips, and transformed it into a dazzling golden light, which he fiercely struck the golden gourd floating in front of him.
"boom!"
A deafening roar shook the entire chaos.
The golden light collided with the gourd, bursting forth with dazzling light, like a supernova explosion, illuminating the entire chaotic world.
However, the gourd remained completely still, without even a scratch on its surface.
"This gourd's defenses are truly impressive!"
Chu Yang frowned, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.
He was not discouraged; instead, it fueled his fighting spirit.
He refused to believe that with his current strength, he couldn't break open this mere gourd!
Chu Yang gathered his magic power once more. This time, he incorporated all the chaotic laws he had comprehended into it, transforming them into an even more dazzling and powerful golden light, which once again blasted towards the gourd.
"boom!"
Another deafening roar erupted, this time even more powerful than before, causing the entire chaos to tremble violently.
A crack finally appeared on the surface of the gourd, but it quickly recovered.
Chu Yang refused to believe in evil and attacked the gourd again and again, each time using all his strength and incorporating the chaotic laws he had comprehended into his attacks.
I don't know how much time has passed, maybe a day, maybe a year, or even longer.
Chu Yang had lost count of how many times he had attacked; he only knew that his magical power was almost exhausted, but he still did not give up.
Finally, after the last attack, the gourd emitted a crisp sound, and a noticeable crack appeared on its surface.
The crack did not heal quickly; instead, it slowly repaired itself after a moment.
"It's done!" Chu Yang was overjoyed. He knew he was about to succeed.
Chu Yang's eyes flashed with a sharp light. How could he miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
Without hesitation, he mobilized the last of his magical power and activated the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation with all his might.
The four swords of Zhuxian emitted a buzzing sound, as if sensing the fighting spirit of their controllers, and trembled with excitement.
The four swords combined into one, transforming into a dazzling sword beam with a world-destroying aura, about to cleave fiercely at the crack in the gourd.
This truly lives up to its reputation as a supreme innate treasure. Compared to Chu Yang's own natal flying sword, its power is more than ten times greater!
Of course, the amount of magic power Chu Yang needed to control his own natal flying sword was far less than that needed to control the Four Swords of Zhuxian!
The sword's edge was only millimeters away from the crack in the gourd when a powerful life force suddenly surged forth from it. Immediately afterward, a flash of green light appeared, and a spiritual root radiating a rich, chaotic aura emerged from the gourd!
It resembles a young vine, with tender branches and emerald green leaves, yet it exudes a powerful energy that is breathtaking.
Even more surprisingly, after this spiritual root appeared, it actually made a gesture similar to a human bowing down to Chu Yang, with its branches drooping and its leaves trembling slightly, as if begging for mercy.
Seeing this, Chu Yang stopped the four swords of Zhuxian that were suspended in mid-air, and the sound of their swords gradually faded away. He looked at the Chaos Spiritual Root with great interest. Although it could not speak, Chu Yang could clearly feel the subservience it conveyed.
"So you're already admitting defeat?" Chu Yang chuckled and dispelled the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation. The Chaos Spiritual Root's actions had saved him a lot of effort. However, just to be on the safe side, he decided to add another layer of restriction to the spiritual root.
Chu Yang extended his finger, and a ball of golden chaotic law power condensed at his fingertip. He slowly injected this power into the chaotic spiritual root, forming a special restriction.
This restriction was something he had just comprehended from the runes on the gourd. It was quite effective at restricting the movements of powerful beings. Although he didn't know how effective it would be on this chaotic spiritual root, it was better than nothing.
This is, after all, chaos, and Chu Yang doesn't know much about it. Everything still needs to be explored.
As the restriction took shape, the branches of the Chaos Spiritual Root trembled even more violently, as if they were enduring immense pain.
Seeing this, Chu Yang was secretly delighted; it seemed that the restriction was indeed effective.
After doing all this, Chu Yang carefully observed the sprout's reaction. He saw it trembling in its cage, its two leaves drooping, looking pitiful.
It seems that the restriction does have some effect on it.
Chu Yang chuckled inwardly; this little thing was putting on quite a good act. However, he wouldn't be easily fooled.
"I'll take you back and study you first. You have a Chaos Spiritual Root, and the gourd you produced is at least a Chaos Spiritual Treasure, which is a level higher than a Primordial Treasure. However, I still need to go to Yuan Tu's lair, so I'll put you away for now!" Chu Yang muttered to himself.
Having said that, he reached out and tucked the tender shoot and gourd together into his sleeve. (End of Chapter)
