506: Chapter 507 The Pact of Life and Death Through Nirvana, the Three Souls Manifest and Transform into the Emperor's Diagram

The xuanyuan sword hummed softly beside him, the black lightning patterns on its blade flickering with a ghostly light, as if it too were curious about this newly born power.

Inside the zixiao, Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi watched that tiny cluster of black flames through the porthole, yet they felt a chill rising from the depths of their Souls.

“Master... what... what kind of flame is that?” Amaterasu’s voice carried a trace of imperceptible trembling.

Tsukuyomi didn't speak, but her clenched fists revealed the turmoil in her heart.

The black flame danced happily on his fingertip, seemingly enjoying his “caress” immensely.

Just as Lu Chen was feeling smug and preparing to put away this newly realized “little toy,” the smile on his face suddenly froze.

He stared blankly at the flickering black flame on his fingertip. A flash of confusion crossed his eyes, which then turned into shock, and finally became a sort of... unbelievable ecstasy!

“No... that's not right!” He slapped his thigh suddenly, his voice filled with excitement.

“Destruction... is not the end!”

“At the end of destruction... is new life!”

It was as if he had discovered some earth-shattering secret; his entire being trembled slightly with excitement.

In his eyes, that wisp of pitch-black Flame of Destruction on his fingertip no longer seemed like pure darkness and deathly stillness.

Within that extreme destruction, he seemed to see a trace of... weak yet tenacious... greenery!

That was the light of life! It was the hope of being rebuilt after destruction!

Just like the cycle of Reincarnation of stars in the Universe, old stars turn to dust in the extreme destruction of a supernova explosion. Yet that dust will, over long years, gather once more to nurture new stars and new life!

Destruction and new life are two sides of the same coin, mutually generating and overcoming each other in a never-ending cycle!

“Hahahaha!” Lu Chen let out a long roar toward the sky, his laughter echoing in the Kong Ji Universe, filled with delight and realization.

“I understand! I finally understand!”

“The Heavenly Dao follows a cycle; without destruction there is no creation, and after destruction comes rebirth! The true meaning of destruction is actually for a better new life!”

Inside the zixiao, Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi looked at each other, completely unable to understand why their moody master had suddenly gone mad again.

The red light of the Taichu's electronic eyes flashed urgently:

[Warning! Master's emotions are fluctuating violently! Divine Soul energy... is undergoing an unknown mutation!]

[Unable to comprehend!]

[The Law of Destruction and the Law of Creation... show signs of merging!]

At the moment the Taichu “crashed,” within Lu Chen's Purple Mansion, that Primordial Spirit Daoist who had just stabilized at the Body Integration Late Stage Peak also underwent a startling change!

On the forehead of the Primordial Spirit Daoist, within that Chaos Dao Seal, in addition to the original ten-colored divine light and a faint wisp of black destructive aura, there now... bloomed out of thin air a tiny emerald-green light more brilliant than the stars!

That point of light was filled with an indescribable aura of life and the power of creation. Not only did it not conflict with that wisp of destructive aura, but it formed a wondrous balance, like a Taiji diagram—distinctly black and white, yet blending into one another, endlessly generating!

The originally solemn face of the Primordial Spirit Daoist also broke into a smile of ecstasy identical to Lu Chen's main body.

It snapped its eyes open. No longer was there pure depth and majesty in its gaze; instead, there was an added light of wisdom that perceived life and death and understood Reincarnation.

Following that, an even more incredible scene occurred!

With a soft “poof,” the tiny body of the Primordial Spirit Daoist was like a dandelion being blown apart, instantly... splitting into three!

Three Primordial Spirits, identical to the previous one, appeared out of thin air within the Purple Mansion!

The three little figures looked at each other, their faces showing expressions of surprise and excitement.

“Ho! Buy one get two free? This deal isn't a loss!” one of the Primordial Spirits spoke, his voice crisp, yet in the exact same tone as Lu Chen.

“No, no, we are all the main body. There are no free gifts!” another little Primordial Spirit immediately retorted.

The third little Primordial Spirit rubbed his smooth little chin, looking thoughtful. “One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones? It feels... like it’s not quite the same.”

Outside, Lu Chen also felt the changes within his Purple Mansion, and the smile on his face grew even more brilliant.

“Good! Good! Good!” He said the word “good” three times, clearly satisfied to the extreme with this unexpected surprise.

“Splitting into three, marvelous! Truly marvelous!”

He held out his hand, looking at his empty palm, and suddenly grinned, revealing a row of forest-white teeth.

“Since the Primordial Spirits have become pairs, I can't just be a lone commander.”

As his voice fell, he pressed his fingers together like a sword and made a light slash across his wrist.

Ssh!

Two drops of Origin Blood, as deep red and translucent as blood diamonds, flew out from the wound. They hovered before him, radiating a powerful aura of life and Lu Chen's unique Imperial Dragon Qi.

A flash of golden light appeared at the wound, and it instantly recovered to its original state, without even a scar left behind.

Inside the Purple Mansion, those three little Primordial Spirits seemed to sense something, and a trace of longing flashed in their eyes simultaneously.

“Whoosh!” “Whoosh!”

Two of the little Primordial Spirits, almost at the same time, turned into two streaks of light and pounced toward those two drops of Origin Blood!

“Mine!”

“Mine!”

Each of the two little figures chose a drop of blood and dove right in.

Buzz—!

Upon merging with the Primordial Spirits, the two drops of Origin Blood were like ignited powder kegs, instantly exploding with unimaginable energy!

They began to frantically absorb the stray dark matter, dark energy, and various pure Origin particles from the surrounding space of the Universe!

Visible to the naked eye, those two drops of blood began to rapidly expand and deform, outlining bones, flesh, and Meridians...

In just a few breaths, two figures identical to Lu Chen's main body—only completely unclothed—appeared out of thin air in the Void Realm!

These two newly appeared figures slowly opened their eyes.

The one on the left had lively eyes, carrying a hint of craftiness and playfulness, with the corner of his mouth slightly upturned.

The one on the right had a cold expression and eyes as sharp as knives, his entire body radiating an icy aura that warned others not to approach.

The two “Lu Chens” moved their limbs, feeling these brand-new Physical Bodies that were identical to the main body, their faces showing expressions of satisfaction.

They sized each other up, and then simultaneously turned their gazes toward Lu Chen's main body.

The “Lu Chen” on the left crossed his arms and squinted at the main body, a playful smile on his lips. “Hey, Original, how do you like the new look? Don't you think the Universe's beauty standards have been raised a notch because of the three of us?”

The “Lu Chen” on the right remained cold, only slightly moving his neck bones, producing a faint “crack” sound. His gaze swept over his hands, as if inspecting a newly born weapon.

Lu Chen's main body patted both their shoulders. “Not bad, not bad! In the future when we go out to fight, one will take them head-on, one will ambush from the flank, and I will lead the charge from the center. Perfect!”

With a thought, he took out three sets of identical black martial attire from his storage space. The fabric shimmered with a dull luster, clearly no ordinary material.

In an instant, three identical Lu Chens with subtly different temperaments stood side by side in the Void Realm.

One was somewhat unruly and cynical, one was as cold as ten-thousand-year-old profound ice, and one appeared balanced and peaceful, yet with a trace of playfulness hidden in his eyes.

Inside the bridge, Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi watched the three “Masters” standing side by side outside through the porthole. They were already dumbfounded, their small mouths hanging open wide enough to fit an egg.

“Mas... Master...” Amaterasu rubbed her eyes, her voice a bit fluttery. “Which one... is the real one?”

Tsukuyomi tightened her grip on the hilt of the blade at her waist and said in a low voice, “The auras... are all the same.”

Just then, the expressions on the faces of the three Lu Chens changed slightly at the exact same moment.

They simultaneously looked up, gazing toward the azure planet below—Earth.

An indescribable, grand yet gentle will, like a mother's call, crossed the barriers of space and was clearly transmitted into their shared Primordial Spirit.

“Oh?” Lu Chen raised an eyebrow. “This is... Earth's Heavenly Dao?”

He could feel that there was no malice in this will; instead, it was filled with warmth and... approval?

Following that, a beam of Law light, invisible to the naked eye, rose from the depths of Earth like an invisible bond and connected with unerring precision to the three Lu Chens.

That light was warm and heavy, carrying the aura of all things growing, the accumulation of vast changes over time, and a kind of ancient and majestic “recognition.”

“Is this... Law resonance?”

“You just crossed a tribulation, and Earth is giving you a ‘Good Person Card’?”
