Chapter 598 - 598 Predicament
There were 3,000 Dao, and these 3,000 Dao were innate Dao. Of course, the number of real Dao was far more than that. As for the acquired Dao, even if they were formed by two or more innate Dao, their power would depend on the individual’s fusion.
There was only one path. When he reached the heave-rank, all the Dao laws and powers would be unified.
As the stairway leading from the earth-rank led to the heaven-rank, the National Guardian level naturally possessed the characteristics of the heaven-rank, where power and Dao were one.
!!
For example, the Bright Phoenix used to walk on the path of fire. Later on, with fire as its foundation, it mastered life. Life and death were two sides of the same body. Therefore, not only did it possess a strong offensive power, but it also had a strong healing ability. It also grasped the authority of the underworld and could establish the underworld in Taixia Country and become a God in the human world.
Another example was the Wudang Immortal. The Dao he walked was Dao. Whether it was Zhang San’s quiet inaction, Li Si’s principles of karma, or Wang Wu’s slaying and killing, they were all just a kind of embodiment of Dao.
As for the Ten Thousand Laws Heavenly Man, one could tell from his name that he walked the Dao of ten thousand laws. This was a celestial Dao formed from countless divine abilities.
The last one was Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan’s Dao was not the Dao of the Human Emperor. His Dao of the Human Emperor originated from his bloodline. When he chose to break away from his identity as a bloodline user, he used his human bloodline to absorb the power of the ancestral dragon’s bloodline. In the end, he broke away from his identity as a Dragon King and became a pure human. However, his human bloodline also mutated because of this, becoming more powerful.
Lin Xuan’s fundamental Dao was strength. A strong body, unparalleled strength, and extreme speed were the most basic essences that were the foundation of Lin Xuan’s cultivation.
However, it was undeniable that when the essence of life began to sublimate, not only his fundamental great Dao was sublimated, but his bloodline was also sublimated. The Human Emperor’s body was just the external appearance of his bloodline. Now that his bloodline had sublimated, the body naturally changed as well.
It no longer needed Lin Xuan’s transformation to come out, but it changed Lin Xuan’s form from the inside. Two small bumps appeared on his forehead, and his legs became slimmer and longer. When Lin Xuan enters the final rank, his form would change as well.
More importantly, there was a candle that carried the torch flame. This was the source of the Tinder Sutra. As long as Lin Xuan was alive, the inheritance of the Tinder Sutra would not end. However, Lin Xuan had already considered that everyone would die one day, whether today or tomorrow. When he returned, he would cast a flame to carry the power of the Tinder Sutra and allow the Tinder Sutra to be passed down for a long time.
The original idea was that as long as there was a sun, it could be inherited. This was something that could be done when Lin Xuan was around. However, if something were to happen to Lin Xuan one day, it would not work. After all, there were countless Sun Gods in the world!
Lin Xuan’s breakthrough was still ongoing, and the battle between Qiu and the Roc Lord was also getting intense. However, as time passed, all the humans and demons looked anxiously at the thick clouds. They were either anticipating or afraid that a new Saint would be born.
Even the Greenwood Lord was no exception!
The greatest advantage of plants was their vitality, and it was only natural that the Greenwood Lord’s vitality was extremely sturdy. He secretly cut off one of his roots and buried it into the ground, then quickly spread towards the place where Lin Xuan was sitting cross-legged to recuperate.
Even though the Greenwood lord was subtle, it was still discovered by Zhang Jintao. As a Human Saint, he naturally could not just watch Lin Xuan be harmed. He immediately used his technique and forcefully shattered the root into pieces.
This time, it truly angered Greenwood Lord. Since he would be discovered if he were to be sneaky, then he might as well be open and go aboveboard!
The Greenwood Lord’s body swayed and split into two. One half continued to fight Zhang Jintao, while the other half quickly flew toward the thick fog and was about to enter to kill Lin Xuan.
Zhang Jintao was careless and didn’t guard against this move, which allowed Greenwood Lord to escape. The two halves of Greenwood Lord’s strength had naturally decreased, but it wasn’t too much of a problem to hold Zhang Jintao back. For a moment, he actually managed to escape.
Zhang Jintao was also extremely decisive in his move. He immediately shouted, and a formation formed by seven or eight Paragons immediately gave up on besieging the Demon Emperor. Instead, they focused on the Greenwood Lord. They didn’t hope to kill him in one blow, but only hoped to slow him down.
The orange-red power of the Tinder Sutra surged and it was as if the sky was being split open as it was aimed at the Greenwood Lord!
Even the Greenwood Lord had to be careful when faced with this attack. The thousands of leaves on his body shook, forming a thousand-leaf shield that blocked the attack, but he was still knocked down.
It wasn’t a peak-level formation that had shot down the Greenwood Lord, but a small ball. It saw an opportunity and swung its tail, sweeping him into the dust as if he was trash.
“Well done!”
Zhang Jintao’s eyes twitched. He was very interested in the behemoth hidden in the clouds. He also knew that it was a friend and not an enemy. Unfortunately, it was not a good time to get to know it.
He immediately suppressed the other half of the Greenwood Lord and brought it to the other half, forcing it to merge together. If it dared to try another sneak attack, he would injure it even if it meant getting injured.
The Tinder formation of humans was powerful, and it could maximize the strength of many people. However, the strength of many people was limited. At this point in the battle, the Tinder energy in the bodies of many ordinary humans was almost exhausted, but the low-level demons were still rushing out non-stop.
The situation was starting to lose its optimism.
The high-ranked powerhouses were still fine. They were able to suppress high-ranked demons and even kill one or two demons from time to time. Moreover, the Tinder energy in their bodies was still sufficient and they would not be exhausted for a while.
However, this was not a solution to the long term battle. After all, there were too many powerhouses on the demon side.
D*mn it, what a pity. When he realized that he could use a reverse spy on the demons, he didn’t have the time to use it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so difficult to fight now.
They were still too blindly optimistic after obtaining the Tinder Sutra. It was obvious that the humans were still much weaker than demons.
Of course, this could be discussed later. The problem was, what should he do now?
What to do? Of course, it was Lin Xuan’s appearance to turn the tide!
