Chapter Seventy-Nine: Sketching the White Tiger

  Just as the sword light was about to kill him, Qin Hao made his move, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. The purple energy transformed from the nine True Immortals poured into his body, and in an instant, Qin Hao's heart practiced the Xuanwu Twenty-Seven Sounds. Every time he practiced, each of the twenty-eight acupoints on his body would emit a loud, pleasant howl that was full of ancient charm. The stars in the sky, even during the day when they were not visible, would occasionally twinkle, and that was the Xuanwu Star Constellation.

  When the twenty-seven voice exercises were completed, Qin Hao's hands moved, and with a single gesture, his acupoints emitted another mournful howl. This sound shook everyone present, and Qin Hao's vital energy surged to the sky, condensing into a tangible substance that radiated thousands of feet away. The disciples were all pale-faced and trembling, their spirits shrinking in terror within their minds, which were filled with fear.

  "The howl of the Black Tortoise, this is a rare phenomenon that only saints have! Legend has it that during the era of the Holy Kings, those holy kings who cultivated their bodies would all exhibit strange phenomena. I didn't expect him to actually exhibit such a phenomenon." Xuan Wuming was shocked, but thinking that Qin Hao was a divine pulse, he also felt at ease.

  "Brother Qin Hao, is this a breakthrough in escaping?"

  "The clouds in the sky have gathered, and the Xuanwu star has appeared. Cultivate quickly, this is a great opportunity! If you can obtain the blessing of the Star Mansion's power, not only will your divine spirit be nourished, but even your physical body will be strengthened. This is a rare chance." Some of the elder immortals' faces showed surprise and delight, for an ancient sacred king to refine his body once would bring benefits to others, an absolutely tangible advantage.

  When Qin Hao finished practicing the Xuanwu Star Gate of the Tai Xuan Secret Method, suddenly the 28th star appeared in the sky, connected together, and the Xuanwu Star Gate completely flashed out. The endless power of the stars poured down, colliding with Qin Hao's qi and blood, merging into his body. At the same time, the star power also radiated to the surroundings, and many people were nourished by it. They found that their previous deficiencies had been made up for in an instant.

  Moreover, they are no longer afraid. The Taishang elders simply released the divine spirit as well. Feeling this starry power, they know that such an opportunity is absolutely rare and can't be sought after. Even the disciples of the Great Teaching rarely cultivate such a phenomenon, let alone having the starry power directly enter their bodies, and it's still such a magnificent starry power.

  They had also witnessed the breakthrough of cultivators, but at most, it was just a flash of starlight, and the power of the stars that poured in was tiny. But Qin Hao's star power was like a pillar of water crashing down, simply defying the heavens. However, everyone knew that Qin Hao was a divine pulse, and having such great luck was only natural. Moreover, they had also benefited from it.

  "It's actually an omen, a sacred omen. How is this possible? His aura is green, how can he have a sacred omen?" The most shocked was Mingzhu, now his sword light wasn't even as strong as this omen, and it was even being extinguished by this power. What kind of powerful omen was this, to stir up the starry sky's power and directly infuse it into one's body? This was something that only ancient saints could accomplish."

  The ancient era was the Great Emperor Era, the distant past was the Holy King Era, also known as the Sage, and the Holy Kings were all half-step accomplished Great Emperors, each with a natural talent, with the mysterious yellow aura on their bodies. However, Qin Hao clearly had a green aura, so it's impossible to have such great opportunities.

  But the next moment he was stunned, and then it was surprise, because he saw that Qin Hao's aura had changed, not just mysterious yellow, but mysterious yellow with purple. According to legend, those who can become great emperors are all like this aura. The aura of Panhuang God Vein is the thickest in the mysterious yellow aura, but even Panhuang God Vein will not have a purple color, because Panhuang God Vein cannot be cultivated. But the person in front of him had a purple color.

  "No, he is a divine pulse, the Panhuang divine pulse." Mingzhu finally saw it, the power of Xuanwu poured into his body, breaking Qin Hao's connection to the fantasy, and his aura completely revealed itself. The aura possessed by the Panhuang divine pulse was something that no one could ignore. Mingzhu finally understood why the Mystic Gate had such a grand aura, it turned out that it was because of the presence of the Panhuang divine pulse. Most importantly, this Panhuang divine pulse was also a cultivable divine pulse.

  "How is this possible, how can the Panhuang Divine Pulse be cultivated? From ancient times to the present, no one has ever successfully cultivated it, but he is right in front of me, his aura is absolutely that of the Panhuang Divine Pulse, and it's even a rare, high-quality aura with a purple hue." The Mingzhu Divine Spirit almost couldn't turn around.

  But he suddenly thought of why the people he brought would be killed so easily: "A Panhuang divine vein, a cultivable Panhuang divine vein, can naturally kill them easily. Their aura is mostly white, even if it's Qingxu's aura, it's only green, and they will naturally be killed. Moreover, their strength is not as strong as this Panhuang divine vein."

  "Haha, heaven has given me a great gift! If I can obtain this aura, in the future, our Tianlong will surely dominate and reign supreme. With this aura, it's not just possible to become a king, but even becoming a saint king or a great emperor is within reach!" Mingzhu suddenly burst into laughter, her eyes looking at Qin Hao as if he were an extraordinary divine medicine.

  "It's just a famous teacher, even if you break through the famous inn, it's useless. My human dignity, even your aura can't stop me now. You will become my stepping stone, everything of yours will be used as a dowry for me. The Purple Emperor's divine veins, the mysterious and unpredictable fan, haha, in the future I will dominate the world, die! Tianlong breaks at dawn." Mingzhu struck out with Tianlong Breaks at Dawn, this is the strongest secret technique of the Tianlong Gate, Tianlong appears, Qiankun breaks at dawn.

  "Not good." Everyone let out a cry of surprise.

  Now they think Qin Hao is too lovely, where do they want him to die? This star power benefits them greatly. You know that the gods can't draw stars, and the alchemists can't draw heaven and earth. But once they get the opportunity, the benefits for both parties are boundless.

  But now, Mingzhu is actually going to cut off Qin Hao's Star Power Infusion at this critical moment of breakthrough. If it gets interrupted, he will definitely go crazy and even Xuan Wuming won't be able to rescue him in time. Although the Star Power was absorbed by his divine spirit and his vitality has recovered with additional benefits, he still can't rescue him because Mingzhu is too close, even he can't stop her.

  "It's over, it can't be helped." Some of the disciples were resentful in their hearts, hating to use their eyes to kill this old stick, but they weren't Tai Gu's giant engine, directly able to kill with a glance. They were just humble disciples of a small sect.

  "This old thing, it's not human anymore." Some people cursed outright, who cares about the king or not, dared to kill Qin Hao, they will scold, but all of this is useless.

  The dragon breaks at dawn, but the one being hit is not Qin Hao, it's the severed body of his Xuanwu, this move is really ruthless and deadly. Qin Hao was indeed the key to breaking through, being severed, Qin Hao's divine pulse will be self-inflicted, probably causing another divine pulse disruption, and then there will be a heavenly deficiency again.

  But how could Qin Hao let this old thing interrupt him?

  The Vermilion Bird represents wisdom, and its main acupoint is the Celestial Hearing. When the Celestial Hearing opens, there is a light of wisdom, but even among cultivators, few can fully open the Celestial Hearing. Only someone like Qin Hao who has cultivated to the point of having an extraordinary appearance can completely open the Celestial Hearing, and their wisdom will be almost limitless. If someone who opened the Celestial Hearing was as stupid as that, then Qin Hao might as well have died.

  "The Vermilion Bird sings, above the Ninth Heaven."

  "Buzz... buzz..." Suddenly, a phoenix's cry came from Qin Hao's body. He broke through the Vermilion Bird, but did not stir up the Vermilion Bird's power. This time, he wanted to stir up two kinds of stellar powers to protect himself. The Vermilion Bird represented wisdom, while the Black Turtle represented defense. Two kinds of powers poured down, and no one knew what would happen.

  But the next moment, a crimson power surged down again, and the Vermilion Bird star appeared in the sky. The Vermilion Bird and the Dark Turtle converged, as if they had stirred up something in the depths of the universe. Two powers poured into his body simultaneously, and Qin Hao's acupoints finally began to break through the White Tiger's 28 acupoints. Each impact made Qin Hao feel a sense of relief, and he felt that the numerous meridians connected to the 28 acupoints were all being broken through. His whole body was filled with a refreshing and electrifying sensation, his blood vessels, tendons, and bones were all elevated.

  "Roar...!" When the twenty-eight acupoints were completely broken through, Qin Hao's body once again let out a shocking and heart-shaking howl. This was the killing roar of a tiger, the White Tiger Star representing coldness, attack, and a natural killer star. Breaking through the White Tiger gave him the power to devour, and a Refining Body cultivator could directly devour the divine spirit of a Divine Storage cultivator. Ordinary Refining Body cultivators were already able to threaten Divine Storage cultivators at this point, but Qin Hao was not ordinary.

  "The two great stellar mansions...". Mingzhu really couldn't think that Qin Hao still had such a perverted move, but his Tianlong Break Dawn continued to slash down, its golden edge sharp and in harmony with the grand trend, annihilating everything.

  "Clang... clang..." countless sounds of metal clashing erupted, this was the defensive power of the Xuanwu Star Constellation. If it were an ordinary cultivator, they would probably be cut off immediately. But Qin Hao wasn't an ordinary cultivator. The Xuanwu Star Constellation had infused into his body and connected with him. Now, Qin Hao's breakthrough was under the protection of the Xuanwu Star Constellation.

  A lone Daoist king is mighty, how can he be defeated by the Xuanwu star?

  "How is it possible?!" Mingzhu couldn't believe it.

  Those thousands of sword lights slashed down, but unexpectedly didn't even hurt a single hair on Qin Hao's body. Instead, he was affected by a counter-shock force that left him with a dull ache. He was like an ant that had split a giant mountain, but the mountain hadn't moved at all, and instead, it was himself who got injured.

  "Knock knock"

  "How did Qin Hao manage to do that? Even a Human Dao cultivator's slash couldn't cut off this Star Mansion power." Some people swallowed their saliva, also exclaiming in surprise.

  But what was even more astonishing was yet to come, from the power of Xuanwu's formation, a scorching hot energy suddenly burst out, as if it wanted to melt everything. That was Zhuque's crimson flames. The heavenly bodies were not to be desecrated, and although the counter-shock force of Xuanwu could not harm this bright pearl, what about Zhuque? The power of Zhuque's crimson flames erupted again, determined to incinerate all living things that dared to desecrate it.

  "Not good." Mingzhu quickly retreated and launched another move, Tianlong Breaks at Dawn.

  "Hsss...!" The scarlet flames of the Vermilion Bird rose up, engulfing and melting everything. The radiant glow of the Mingzhu sword was completely extinguished, as fire overcame metal with such ease. And this was just a small spark from the vast expanse of the Vermilion Bird constellation.

  But this is just a warning, the Vermilion Bird Star Mansion is in the Aquarius, but it is not under Qin Hao's control. This is just a counterattack, and the counterattack will burn only one person, making Wang Zuo look disheveled.

  Everyone laughed, but more people absorbed the power of Zhuque and Xuanwu, nourishing their spirits. Many people made breakthroughs, even the tens of thousands of mountains in Xuandu were nourished. In the future, it will definitely be a treasure land. This also fulfilled that saying: great difficulties do not die must have good fortune later, and the good fortune of the people of Xuandu has arrived...
