726: Chapter 726 Lu Xueqi and Biyao (105)
Several Elders heard this and sighed in relief one after another. Sect Master Yun Lan stepped forward, looking at Su Han with eyes full of praise: "Su Han, this time it is all thanks to you and Junior Sister Yuehua. If not for you both, the Qingyun Sect would have likely fallen into a catastrophic disaster long ago. To be able to successfully escape the control of the Devilish Seed and even Cultivate the Chaos Dao Body is truly a blessing for our Qingyun Sect."
Su Han lowered his head slightly with a humble expression: "Disciple does not dare to take the credit. To be able to turn this danger into safety this time, it was all thanks to the Grand Elder's assistance and Junior Martial Uncle's life-risking rescue. If not for them, Disciple would have already fallen into the Demonic Path, beyond redemption."
Perfected Xuan Yang nodded, his expression becoming solemn: "The Grand Elder has already entered seclusion to regulate his breathing; his intervention this time consumed a great deal of Spiritual Power. However, before he left, he specifically instructed me that although your Chaos Dao Body has been formed, it is not yet stable. Furthermore, although the Devilish Seed has been purged from your body, its lingering aura has not completely dissipated. In your future cultivation, you must strictly guard your Dao Heart and never allow yourself to be eroded by demonic nature again."
"Disciple will keep the Sect Master's teachings in mind," Su Han said respectfully.
"Additionally," Perfected Xuan Yang paused and continued, "this outbreak of the Devilish Seed was no accident. The Grand Elder surmises that the reason the Devilish Seed in your body suddenly erupted was likely due to someone manipulating it from the shadows. Moreover, the God-Burying Abyss is probably not as simple as it seems."
Su Han's heart tightened as he recalled Elder Yin Yang whom he had met in the God-Burying Abyss, along with that eerie smile. At the time, he had only considered Elder Yin Yang to be a reclusive expert, but thinking about it now, things were likely not that simple. "Sect Master, Disciple suspects that Elder Yin Yang in the God-Burying Abyss might be related to this Devilish Seed outbreak."
"Oh?" A flash of surprise crossed Perfected Xuan Yang's eyes. "Tell me the details."
Su Han then recounted his experiences in the God-Burying Abyss, from meeting Elder Yin Yang to being gifted the chaos green lotus seed, and finally to the eerie smile he saw upon leaving, telling everything in full detail. "At the time, Disciple did not think much of it and only thought he was kindly helping. But reflecting on it now, he seemed to have known all along that the chaos green lotus seed would fuse with the Devilish Seed in my body, and it might even have been his design from the very beginning."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the several Elders became solemn. Sect Master Yun Lan frowned and said, "Elder Yin Yang? I have indeed heard of this title. Legend says he was a Cultivator from the ancient era, proficient in the arts of Yin and Yang, with unfathomable strength. However, he has been missing for many years; I did not expect him to be living in seclusion in the God-Burying Abyss. If he truly is manipulating all of this from the shadows, then our Qingyun Sect will likely face another great crisis."
"It is not just the Qingyun Sect," Perfected Xuan Yang said in a deep voice. "The Chaos Dao Body is a rare Physique in the world. Once formed, its potential is limitless; one can achieve Immortal Ascension or fall into the Demonic Path. For Elder Yin Yang to go to such lengths to Cultivate a Chaos Dao Body, he likely has some ulterior motive. Furthermore, the Grand Elder also sensed a powerful Devilish Qi quietly gathering outside the Qingyun Sect, seemingly spying from the shadows. It likely has something to do with Elder Yin Yang as well."
Su Han's heart tightened. He had not expected that cultivating the Chaos Dao Body would bring about so much trouble. "Sect Master, what should we do now?"
Perfected Xuan Yang pondered for a moment and said, "For now, the most important thing is for Junior Sister Yuehua to heal properly. At the same time, you must also stabilize your Chaos Dao Body and increase your strength as quickly as possible. Additionally, I will send several Elders to secretly investigate the situation in the God-Burying Abyss and the surroundings of the Qingyun Sect to uncover Elder Yin Yang's true purpose and find out where that gathering Devilish Qi is coming from. Rest assured, the Qingyun Sect will do everything in its power to protect your and Junior Sister Yuehua's safety."
"Thank you, Sect Master. Thank you, Elders." Su Han bowed in gratitude.
Perfected Xuan Yang waved his hand: "Take good care of Junior Sister Yuehua. If anything happens, notify us immediately. We will not disturb you further." After saying this, he led the several Elders and left Yuehua Peak.
Su Han returned to the Immortal Cave and sat by Fairy Yuehua's bedside once more. Looking at her still-pale face, the determination in his heart grew firmer. He knew that to protect Junior Martial Uncle Yuehua and the Qingyun Sect, he had to become strong as quickly as possible. Thus, while watching over Fairy Yuehua, he began to circulate the Chaos Cultivation Method to stabilize his Chaos Dao Body.
The cultivation of the Chaos Dao Body was completely different from ordinary Physiques. It fused the purity of the Green Lotus Power, the balance of Yin and Yang Power, and a sliver of power from the remnant Devilish Seed, forming an entirely new system of power. As Su Han circulated the technique, the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth surged into his body continuously. After being refined by the Chaos Cultivation Method, it transformed into pure Chaos Spiritual Power, nourishing his entire body and stabilizing his dao foundation.
During the cultivation process, Su Han also discovered some anomalies. He could feel a faint, extremely weak aura of the Devilish Seed within him, like a maggot on the bone, difficult to completely purge. Moreover, whenever he circulated his Spiritual Power too quickly, eerie illusions would appear in his mind—bloody massacres, boundless darkness, and Elder Yin Yang's sinister smile—all trying to lure him into the Demonic Path.
Su Han's heart tightened, and he immediately recalled the instructions of Perfected Xuan Yang and the Grand Elder. He quickly focused his mind, strictly guarded his Dao Heart, and circulated his Chaos Spiritual Power to suppress the illusions and that sliver of Devilish Seed aura bit by bit. He knew this was a test of his Dao Heart; only by remaining steadfast could he completely escape the erosion of demonic nature and truly master the power of the Chaos Dao Body.
Days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had gone by.
Fairy Yuehua finally opened her eyes slowly. Though her face was still somewhat pale, her gaze had regained its former clarity, and the fluctuations of her Dao Heart had become much more stable. The first thing she did upon waking was look at Su Han by the bed, her eyes full of concern: "Su Han, are you alright? Has the Devilish Seed... been completely purged?"
Seeing Fairy Yuehua wake up, Su Han was overjoyed. He quickly took her hand, his voice trembling with excitement: "Junior Martial Uncle, you're awake! That's wonderful! I'm fine. The Devilish Seed has been completely purged, and I've even cultivated the Chaos Dao Body. How are you? Do you feel unwell anywhere?"
Fairy Yuehua looked at Su Han, a gentle smile appearing on her face as she shook her head slightly: "I'm fine, just a bit weak. I'm relieved to see you're okay." She paused, her gaze falling on Su Han, a flash of surprise in her eyes. "Your aura... it's become so strong and very unique. It has the purity of the Green Lotus and the balance of Yin and Yang. It truly is the Chaos Dao Body."
Su Han smiled: "This is all thanks to your life-risking rescue, Junior Martial Uncle, and the Grand Elder's help. If not for you all, I wouldn't be where I am today."
Fairy Yuehua gently stroked Su Han's head, her eyes full of gratification: "Silly child, I said we are family. How could I watch you come to harm? Being able to Cultivate the Chaos Dao Body is your Opportunity and also the Qingyun Sect's Opportunity. However, you must remember that the Chaos Dao Body has infinite potential but is also extremely dangerous. In your future cultivation, you must strictly guard your Dao Heart and never let it be eroded by demonic nature."
"Disciple will keep Junior Martial Uncle's teachings in mind," Su Han said respectfully. (End of Chapter)
