Chapter 231: Harvest! The Incense Vow Golden Body!
Chapter 231: Harvest! The Incense Vow Golden Body!
Bang!
Qin Zheng released his grip.
Gao Wuxing's body immediately fell to the ground.
However, there was no movement!
On the Virtue Scroll, not a single piece of information manifested.
Killing Gao Wuxing would result in a deduction of 30,000 jin of virtue, as the Virtue Scroll had indicated during their previous encounter.
Now that he had defeated Gao Wuxing, why was there no response on the Virtue Scroll?
Could it be that Gao Wuxing wasn't actually dead?
Qin Zheng's gaze intensified as he looked down at Gao Wuxing's body, which was now split in half, devoid of any signs of life.
He was indeed dead.
Qin Zheng's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
In an instant, his Primordial Spirit power spread out, covering the entire Quanzhou.
Then, he immediately sensed a golden light moving swiftly from the Gao Clan's ancestral hall towards the outside.
"Hmph!"
Qin Zheng let out a cold snort and took a step forward, transforming into a radiant beam of light and rushing out.
A golden light streaked across the endless land, heading towards the capital city.
At this moment, Gao Wuxing had only one thought in his mind.
Survive!
He must survive!
For someone who had turned to cultivate the Incense Vow Path, the physical body was merely a shell; the golden body forged from incense vow power was the foundation of his life.
Qin Zheng, unfamiliar with the Incense Vow Path, must have thought that by killing his physical body, he had truly killed him!
But for Gao Wuxing, as long as the golden body remained intact, he could continue to live on!
It was a pity that the ancestors of the Gao Clan did not cultivate a golden body, so when they died, they truly perished!
Gao Wuxing's eyes flashed with intense hatred as he thought of this.
Dharmakaya!
Qin Zheng had slaughtered the most promising candidate for Dharmakaya among the human race!
He had annihilated the Gao Clan's hope for dominance!
Gao Wuxing vowed to seek revenge.
Upon returning to the Grand Martial Academy in the capital, he would draw upon the incense vow power of the entire Great Jin Dynasty, devoting himself to cultivation!
Since Qin Zheng did not cultivate the Incense Vow Path, he would surely be unable to break through to Dharmakaya.
Even if he had less than a year of cultivation, his progress was swift, reaching the Half-step Dharmakaya realm from scratch.
But this was a path already trodden by others; that boy merely followed in their footsteps.
Now, having reached the threshold of Dharmakaya, the path ahead was uncertain, without the guidance of predecessors. He would be stuck at this realm, unable to progress further! The Gao Clan ancestors had meditated for thousands of years, only to catch a glimpse of a breakthrough opportunity.
In contrast, Gao Wuxing, following the Incense Vow Path, had a glimmer of hope to attain Dharmakaya!
As long as he became stronger than Qin Zheng one day, he would never let him off!
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and his heart immersed itself in this imaginary scenario.
Just then, a cold voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
"Where do you think you're going?"
What?!
Gao Wuxing's thoughts came to a halt.
Immediately, he felt a gust of wind behind him, like a giant hand piercing through the clouds, reaching towards him.
Impossible!!!
His heart raced with shock.
But in that instant, he turned around, and golden light gathered in his hands, forming a long spear that he thrust towards the giant hand.
Then, in his eyes.
He saw that the giant hand was wrapped in a strand of chaotic annihilation, and his spear, forged from incense vow power, couldn't inflict any damage and was quickly annihilated.
Before he could react, the giant hand had already grabbed his body, and with a slight squeeze, he was completely restrained.
Qin Zheng's gaze was filled with curiosity as he examined the small golden figure in his hand.
It was less than a foot tall, identical in appearance to me a few examples of the golden body forged from incense vow power.
And at that moment, Gao Wuxing, in disbelief and anger, shouted at Qin Zheng, "How could you possibly find me?!"
So, this was his true body.
Qin Zheng understood.
Without wasting time, he didn't squeeze him to death but turned and headed back to the Gao Clan's ancestral hall.
The Gao Clan, a prominent family with thousands of years of history in the Great Jin Dynasty, had deep roots, and Qin Zheng couldn't ignore them.
Vibrating!
At that moment, the Virtue Scroll in his sea of consciousness trembled slightly.
And soon, words appeared.
【Gao Wuxing, Incense Vow Golden Body, neither human nor divine, kill to deduct 30,000 jin of virtue】
It wasn't over.
Immediately, more words appeared.
【Discovered Item: Incense Vow Golden Body, can be refined, requires 30,000 jin of virtue, refine?】
【Note: Refinement grants Mountain Deity Fragmented Divine Essence】
【Note: Refinement grants Item: Incense Vow Golden Body】
【Note: Refinement grants Cultivation Method: Earth True God Scripture】
When Qin Zheng saw the first line, he didn't react.
But upon reading the subsequent lines, he was stunned.
The Virtue Scroll could even refine other people's golden bodies?
Not allowed to kill, but can refine, huh?
All requiring 30,000 jin of virtue.
Well, well, well, Qin Zheng quite liked this!
A slight smirk appeared on Qin Zheng's lips.
Without hesitation, he immediately said, "Refine!"
In an instant, an invisible force descended, and Gao Wuxing's heart trembled as a chill enveloped him.
Suddenly, before he could even struggle, the force instantly surged into the Golden Body, completely erasing his consciousness.
The face of the Golden Body was no longer that of Gao Wuxing, becoming blurry.
Gao Wuxing, perished!
This thought flashed through Qin Zheng's mind.
Immediately after, he curiously examined the Golden Body in his hand.
After refining it and erasing Gao Wuxing's consciousness, a connection formed between Qin Zheng and the Golden Body.
It was as if this object had been marked with his label, belonging to him.
However, apart from that, he didn't sense any changes.
Neither the Divine Essence nor the cultivation method manifested within his body.
Qin Zheng took a moment to examine it.
Qin Zheng, blessed by fortune, cautiously divided a strand of his Primordial Spirit and infused it into the Golden Body.
In an instant, Qin Zheng felt his vision shift.
The one-foot-tall Golden Body slowly transformed into his likeness, opening its eyes and curiously looking back at him.
In mid-air, a handsome young man in a golden-patterned black robe stood amidst the howling winds, calmly observing him.
Two perspectives appeared simultaneously in Qin Zheng's mind.
This feeling was truly extraordinary.
At the same time, various cultivation methods and principles rapidly flooded into his heart.
Earth True Deity Scripture!
The Devotional Energy Path's cultivation method! Qin Zheng took a quick glance.
Then, he began to sense the differences in this Golden Body formed by Devotional Energy.
First, its strength should be on par with a high-level Martial Saint, not weak but not exceptionally strong.
Second, the source of its power was the devotional energy of the human populace. If it were to leave the human realm and lose its source of power, its strength would be greatly diminished.
Lastly, the Divine Essence of the Mountain Deity.
Although Qin Zheng hadn't deeply studied the Devotional Energy Path, he knew that the so-called Divine Essence was certainly not something that anyone who cultivated this path could attain!
This object was undoubtedly extraordinary! However, perhaps due to the fragmented Divine Essence, Qin Zheng didn't sense anything too abnormal or different.
The only change was an even stronger sense of familiarity and closeness towards the mountains on his body.
Mountain Deity.
After sensing it, Qin Zheng controlled the Golden Body, transforming it into a beam of golden light that merged into his body, appearing at his dantian.
This object could be used as a clone.
Qin Zheng himself couldn't cultivate the Devotional Energy Path, but he could control this Golden Body to cultivate! After all, if he truly couldn't achieve the Dharmakaya for some time.
This Golden Body might have a chance to attain the Dharmakaya first, becoming his ace in the hole! With this thought, Qin Zheng controlled the Golden Body and began cultivating, slowly absorbing the devotional energy between heaven and earth.
Gao Family Ancestral Home.
Outside the Ancestral Hall.
A stream of light descended from the sky, landing steadily on the ground.
Then, the power of the Primordial Spirit covered the entire Gao Family Ancestral Home.
After a few breaths, Qin Zheng's figure appeared before a pavilion.
Under his Primordial Spirit's scan, the most valuable items in the entire Gao Family Ancestral Home were likely stored here.
He pushed open the door and entered.
The first thing that caught his eye was a massive divine statue.
It was identical to the statue that Gao Wenyu had worshipped in the prefectural governor's mansion in Qingzhou! Only this statue was much larger and more ancient, exuding an aura of age.
There was even dirt on the statue, as if it had been dug out of a muddy pit.
When Qin Zheng looked into the eyes of the statue, he felt a vague sense of discomfort.
Based on past experience, this object could definitely be refined by the Virtue Scroll, and he might even obtain something of exceptional quality.
However, it was definitely polluted! With this thought, Qin Zheng withdrew his gaze and looked elsewhere.
Under his Primordial Spirit's scan, the entire pavilion was divided into three floors.
On the first floor, there was this massive statue, along with several smaller statues of various kinds.
Qin Zheng casually tried one of them.
[Item Discovered: Daily Wanderer Statue, can be refined, requiring 50,000 pounds of merit. Refine?]
[Note: Refining can obtain High-Grade Spirit Root.]
[Warning: This statue is polluted. Forced refinement may be risky!]
As expected!
Looking at the information provided by the Virtue Scroll, Qin Zheng's heart confirmed his suspicions.
He didn't linger on the first floor and proceeded to the second floor.
Here, various treasures related to the Immortal Dao Civilization were displayed, also emitting a polluted aura.
Qin Zheng took a quick glance.
Finally, he went up to the third floor, where there were very few items, only a few jade slips and books.
Qin Zheng approached and his gaze fell on the books first.
"Travel Records of Floating Dream Daoist - Part One"
Qin Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, then prepared himself and reached out to open it.
Swish!
Nothing unusual happened, and the book opened directly.
Qin Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, then took the book and began reading.
This was a travelogue of a wandering cultivator.
As he flipped through the pages, information about the cultivator's cave, Dharmakaya treasure, Divine Essence fragments, and methods of attaining the Dharmakaya appeared in his mind.
And in the travelogue, the places described by the Daoist were precisely Taixu Mountain!
