Jiang Wangfei flew through the air, hurrying back towards the battlefield.Inside Tongtian Palace, Jiang Yanâs voice carried a trace of bitterness whose origin was unknown, but it was easy to overlook: âThe Holy Maiden is here.
The fact that the leader of the Bone Tao didnât hesitate to flee shows that thereâs a major issue within the Bone Tao!
Itâs not just Lu Yanâs rebellion.
Nor is it simply a power struggle within the sect.
Approaching the gates of the Bone Religion, he dissolved his Flesh Puppet not to deal with you, but out of fear of the Bone Holy Maiden.â
âThe problems within the Bone Tao became known from the moment of the rabbit-faced attack on the dragon-faced.
Itâs just a pity that my strength isnât enough now to do anything about it.â
Jiang Wang still dwelled on not daring to directly step into the gates of the White Bone Palace, even though it had been the right decision.
Hatred always leaves one feeling unsatisfied.
âAnyway, after this incident, the strength of the Flesh Body that the Bone Respecting God uses to act in this world must have greatly diminished.
As he weakens, we grow strongerâour chances of seizing the Bone Holy Body have increased a lot,â Jiang Yan said.
Jiang Wang didnât point out the inappropriateness of his âweâ but instead asked, âIf you say Miao Yu also took part in the rebellion, plus there is an old devil like Lu Yan, do you really believe that the Bone Demon God simply lost strength, rather than that his current Flesh Body could be directly destroyed?â
âYou lack respect for deities of the Underworld, Jiang Wang.â
Jiang Yan scoffed coldly: âThose without knowledge have no fear, and the people of the Bone Religion are just the same.
The Bone Respecting God has lived through such lengthy epochs.
To deal with Him, one must have a profound understanding of Him.â
âLike you?â
âI only dare claim to have a thirty percent certainty!â
âThatâs not like your usual confidence.â
âNo, you simply donât understand Him, so thatâs whyâŚâ
âAre you overly fearful of this Evil God?
What can he do in the present world while being in the Underworld?â Jiang Wang interrupted, âNo matter how terrifying He is, didnât Du Ruhui steal His thunder?
No matter how many ages He has lived through, wasnât he minced into meat by Zhongxuan Chuliang?â
âHeh heh, heh heh, you think I am afraid?
Heh hehâŚâ Jiang Yan fell silent at this point, clearly deeming it unworthy to continue arguing with Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wangâs probing thus came to an abrupt halt.
Meanwhile, the leader of the Bone Religion, upon sensing Miao Yuâs presence, immediately dissolved his Flesh Puppet, concentrating all his power on the other side.
It wasnât that Miao Yu was more powerful than Lu Yan, causing Him to lose all will to fight.
It was because of the special nature of the Bone Holy Maiden.
The two most important cores of the Bone Tao in this world are the Bone Tao Child and the Bone Holy Maiden.
The Bone Tao Child is personally chosen by the Bone Respecting God and leads the awakening.
The Bone Holy Maiden is sought after exhaustively by the religion from all over the world, to find the most suitable candidate to nurture from a young age.
The religious texts state that the Tao Child and the Holy Maiden shall become the Holy Lord and Holy Mother, jointly controlling the era of the Bone Tao.
And now, many people understand that the so-called Tao Child is a lie; it is merely the vessel for the Bone Respecting God to descend into this world.
The Bone Respecting God never intended to let anyone replace Him in controlling the Bone era; His sole intention has always been to become a deity in this world, to personally usher in the era of the Bone Tao.
The so-called Holy Lord and God are actually one and the same.
Of course, the Holy Maiden is not so simple either.
The roots of the Bone Tao truly originated from the Taoist Sect.
Of course, all the myriad sects and schools in the world could be said to derive from the Taoist Sect, since the word âTaoâ encompasses the earliest cultivation path of the Human Race.
Up to today, the âTaoâ in the broadest sense refers to the path.
In the narrow sense, âTaoâ refers to the Taoist Sect.
Getting back to the Bone Tao, where there is yang, there must be yin; where there is cause, there is effect; the two forms give birth to each other, alternating in cycles.
The so-called âHoly Maidenâ of the Bone Tao, in essence, is the âCause and Effectâ prepared by the Bone Respecting God for His descent into the world.
The Cultivation Technique practiced by the Bone Holy Maiden, all her growth, is the process of âripening.â
When the Tao Child completes the âawakening,â which is when the Bone Respecting God occupies the body of the Tao Child and becomes the Holy Lord, he can directly devour this fruit of the Tao.
This accelerates the achievement of becoming a deity in this world.
However, this descent was not without unexpected events.
First, the Bone True Dan that had been painstakingly refined was plucked away by Emperor Zhuang, preventing It from reaching pinnacle fighting strength.
Then, Wang Changjiâs stubbornness truly went beyond Its expectations.
In fact, âTaoist Child Awakeningâ should not be seen as a simple âpossession,â but more like an âinheritance.â Because the Bone Respecting God would inherit everything about the person Wang Changji, including identity, cause and effect, fortune and misfortune, not just the flesh body.
One could say that after complete âawakening,â the Bone Respecting God would be considered Wang Changji.
Although the process was completely dominated by the Bone Respecting God, equivalent to a cuckoo occupying a nest built by another.
Wang Changji, as the Taoist Child, was chosen by It through the opportunities in the Underworld.
It was also because of Its gaze and erosion that Wang Changji had been unable to open his energy channels for a long time and was regarded as useless.
What It had not anticipated was that a mere mortal would have such strong spiritual will, stubbornly holding on to the last line of defense.
His spirit was completely intertwined with the flesh body; to annihilate his will would inevitably affect the body.
No matter how It tried, It could not separate the two.
His resilience, his tenacity⌠even after such a lengthy existence, It felt some admiration.
No matter what, due to the loss of the Bone True Dan and Wang Changjiâs own stubbornness, the Bone Respecting God, as the âHoly Master,â could not be perfect.
The Taoist Child is the cause, the Holy Woman is the effect.
Under normal circumstances, It would of course be able to easily devour this Taoist fruit.
However, under these imperfect and awkward conditions, as one waned and the other waxed, cause and effect could also be replaced.
Simply put, Miao Yu had the opportunity to devour It in return.
This was also why, as soon as It sensed Miao Yuâs presence, It immediately disintegrated the Flesh Puppet.
It was also why the higher-ups of the Bone Tao stayed hidden inside the White Bone Palace, while It alone allowed Miao Yu to wander outside.
Indeed, Miao Yu, as the Bone Holy Woman, had become Its greatest threat.
Before this, It wasnât certain whether Miao Yu knew this secret.
Its caution was merely due to inherent wariness.
Of course, Miao Yu appeared suddenly today outside the gates of the Bone Religion, blocking Its path home, clearly showing she had come to understand this secret.
Unwilling to be a Taoist fruit, or perhaps driven by even fiercer ambition to reverse roles, was enough to be her reason for betraying the deity.
Now, refining a Bone Holy Body with Plague Force, to dissolve Wang Changjiâs resistance and completely assimilate him.
That plan had also failed.
And with Elder Lu Yanâs betrayal, the Holy Woman Miao Yu harboring ill intentions, Linchuan perishing in battle, and even the Bone Messenger Zhang Linchuan in the palace who may not be reliable,
The Bone Religion of this world could almost be said to have been destroyed.
Faced with such a situation, the Bone Holy Master still showed no emotional fluctuations, just a faint regret.
At this moment, it truly was the worst scenario, and everything in this world would have to start over anew.
However, at such a time, It did not lack patience.
This body pleased It greatly; all of todayâs encounters were but minor delays to the dawning of the bone era.
When the tides of the era rolled in, any individual resistance seemed so trivial.
It had opened three gates of bone in the territory of Yang Country.
The first gate opened before everyone, leading directly to the White Bone Palace; It had ordered Zhang Linchuan to guard the other side, which Lu Yan had now destroyed.
The second bone gate was Its contingency, which Miao Yu had detected and also destroyed.
But in truth, It had opened a third bone gate, the third burrow of a shrewd rabbit.
Like the White Bone Palace, it was a sanctuary prepared by the Deity hundreds of years ago in this world.
It had been sealed within the scrolls of history; those who knew of this secret had long since perished.
In the present, no one knows.
