Chapter 37: Minghe Kills Two Separations
Two Top Grade Primordial Supreme Treasures: Cauldron of Heaven and Earth and God-killing Spear. Six Primordial Spiritual Treasures: Red Lotus of Fire, Black Lotus of Destruction, Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, Wuji Apricot Flag, Book of Life and Death and the Judge Pen. Six Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures: Yuantu Sword, Abi Sword, Ruler of Heaven and Earth and three Ninth-grade Green Lotuses of Fate. Five Mid-Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures: Seal of Mountain Repressing and four Sixth-grade Red Lotuses of Fire. Eight low grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures: one Black Gourd and seven Third-grade Red Lotuses of Fire;
Aside from using the Primordial Spiritual Treasures, the primordial objects also could be used for separation. Minghe also had some precious primordial things. The Gourd Celestial Vine that he’d just gotten and Primordial Earth, a Highest Grade Primordial Spiritual Roots Yellow Plum Tree, a Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Roots Enlightenment Fruit Tree and a Mid-Grade Spiritual Roots Tea Tree. The final object was Zixiao Thunder, which had brought him here.
The higher level primordial objects were the Yellow Plum Tree and Zixiao Thunder, but these two things were not suitable for separation to Minghe. He was not an incarnation of primordial spiritual roots, nor did he have The Divine Law of Thunder Enlightenment. He would only get into trouble by using these two things for Separation.
As for the rest, Minghe could only choose to use Primordial Spiritual Treasures for separation as he felt reluctant to use the Primordial Supreme Treasures. By using the Primordial Spiritual Treasures which contained kindness, evil and obsession to kill separations, the Treasures would be the body of three separations. And to restore the consumed Spiritual Treasures energy during the separations, it would need a long time of nurturing or the cultivation Breakthrough of the Three Separations.
Minghe only had two Primordial Supreme Treasures. The Cauldron of Heaven and Earth must be kept to put down Luck and also it could reverse Post-celestial to Primordial. He was unwilling to use it for separation. The God-killing Spear was also the best one for killing. With the Law of Killing, the power would enhance greatly. Using it for separation would be like putting a giant fish in a small pond.
And after meeting the three separations of Hongjun, Minghe knew that there was no way to realize Tao using the Three Separations. Although Hongjun hadn’t said that when he was teaching, according to the way of the Three Separations told by Hongjun and the Magical Tao Prediction Mirror, Minghe had proven his assumption from many years ago.
Now because the Three Separations couldn’t be unified, Minghe must maximize the benefits of Separation. After separation, the Three Separations would need Magic Weapons to protect themselves. Minghe had two Primordial Supreme Treasures to protect himself, the God-killing Spear and the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth.
Minghe also had to take the other three separations into consideration. His cultivation was already in the late stage of Sage-to-be. Both the Good separation and the Evil Separation could already be killed. His three flower Purusa vibrated excessively so it wouldn’t be easy to just kill a separation. Even though it was not enough, with his solid foundation, he could kill the Good separation and Evil Separation by good.
After thinking for a long time, Minghe finally decided to use Primordial Spiritual Treasures to settle the good and evil spirits. Firstly, the Primordial Spiritual Treasure Map of Heaven and Earth which he’d looted from the Ancestor of Heaven and Earth flew out. It contained the World of Heaven and Earth, combined with the Law of Heaven and Earth that Minghe had attained. The separation killed by the Map of Heaven and Earth would enlighten the Law of Heaven and Earth more quickly.
Above Minghe’s head, the Cloud of Blessings appeared. As the three flowers swayed, the Map of Heaven and Earth flew into one of the three flowers, the flower of people. Then, Minghe shouted, "Kill!" A Taoist dressed in a blue robe jumped out from the Flower of People and landed in front of Minghe. He looked like Minghe. He was surrounded by fresh air and flickering vital force. It seemed that he was a part of the Heaven and Earth.
The Taoist bowed to Minghe and said, "I am the Taoist of Heaven and Earth." Looking at him, Minghe didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. The Way of the Three Separations was indeed astonishing. Although the person in front of him was himself and had the same thoughts as him, he had a different personality, which was quite weird.
Minghe laughed, "You and I are the same. So you don’t need to do that." The Taoist of Heaven and Earth also laughed, "I am you, but you are not me." Surprised, Minghe, stared at the Taoist of Heaven and Earth, and then he nodded his head. The Taoist of Heaven and Earth then turned into a cyan blaze and morphed into the Flower of People to cultivate.
The Taoist of Heaven and Earth was the Good separation Minghe had killed with the Primordial Spiritual Treasure Map of Heaven and Earth. He had inherited Minghe’s comprehension of the Law of Heaven and Earth, so he had already achieved the late stage of Sage-to-be cultivation when born and already had 60 percent of Minghe’s attack power before Minghe killed the separation. And it would be even stronger when the Map of Heaven and Earth recovered from the injury of killing the separation.
Even though the body of the Taoist of Heaven and Earth Good separation was the Map of Heaven and Earth, with the perfect defense, the Foundation of the Good separation was likely to be severely damaged when defending with his original body. Therefore, Minghe prepared two spiritual treasures for him, the Ruler of Heaven and Earth and the Wuji Apricot Flag, which were used for attack and defense. Combined with the Law of Heaven and Earth, the Taoist of Heaven and Earth would have no opponents among Sages-to-be.
As for the Evil Separation, Minghe decided to kill it with the Red Lotus of Fire as its foundation. However, it was not the Twelfth-Grade Red Lotus of Fire, but the Red Lotus of Fire combined with three Ninth-Grade Green Lotuses of Fate and the Twelfth-Grade Black Lotus of Destruction. It was a big job.
Minghe called the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, putting the three Ninth-grade Green Lotuses of Fate and the Twelfth-grade Black Lotus of Destruction into it. He used the Power of Infinity to power the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth to refine the lotuses, which would make them return to Genesis. As the time passed by, the lotuses slowly withered, and finally, became two origins of cyan and black.
The cyan origin was the Tao of Fate represented by the Green Lotus of Fate. The black origin was the Tao of Destruction represented by Black Lotus of Destruction. It took 3,000 years to return to Genesis. Within this period, Minghe used the Blood River Formation to seal the Blood Sea thoroughly, in case the Mysterious Sign surprised the others.
The Primordial Spiritual Treasure was extremely precious not only for its various functions but also for the Untainted Land Luck inside it. When the Primordial Spiritual Treasure was destroyed, a Mysterious Sign would appear. The stronger the Primordial Spiritual Treasure was, the more significant and broad the Mysterious Sign that emerged would be.
Three Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures and a Primordial Spiritual Treasure were destroyed at the same time. The whole Blood Sea was turbulent, and the sound of sorrow echoed above the Sea. If Minghe hadn’t prepared sufficiently earlier, the entire Untainted Land would have definitely been attracted. And if they knew that Minghe was destroying four Primordial Spiritual Treasures, they would probably be exasperated. On the one hand, they wanted The Primordial Spiritual Treasure but couldn’t get it, and on the other hand, Minghe was destroying it.
After returning to Genesis, Minghe took out two round origins from the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth and summoned the Red Lotus of Fire. Once the Red Lotus of Fire showed up, it had some reactions to them and Minghe could clearly feel that the Red Lotus of Fire couldn’t wait to swallow them.
And this was what Minghe wanted. He had been afraid that the Red Lotus of Fire would show no reactions and that he had just wasted four Primordial Spiritual Treasures. As he released the Red Lotus of Fire, The Red Lotus of Fire immediately flew to the two round origins and devoured them.
After devouring the two round origins, the Red Lotus of Fire swelled considerably. In addition to the blood red, the Lotus Plate had four extra halos, two cyan and two black. Slowly, they fused, and the Red Lotus of Fire slowly turned from blood red to amaranth and its petals increased. One petal, two petals, three petals...
Finally, it became a lotus with twenty-one petals. When the lotus opened, the heaven and earth above the Blood Sea sounded, playing a joyful song as if it was celebrating the birth of the lotus. Minghe was extremely excited when he looked at the Twenty-first Grade Red Lotus of Fire.
A Twenty-first Grade Red Lotus of Fire was a Mid-Grade Primordial Supreme Treasure and had three magical powers from the Red Lotus of Fire, the power of fate, the power of destruction, and the power of attack and defense. The lotus was a deep amaranth color. Even the flame from the Red Lotus was tinged purple.
Touching the new Red Lotus of Fire, Minghe felt a little bit reluctant to use it for Separation. But he knew what he should do. Controlling the Red Lotus of Fire as it flew into one of the three flowers, the Flower of Earth, Minghe concentrated on his evil thoughts and shouted, "Kill!"
A Taoist dressed in a Red Robe jumped out from the Flower of Earth. Wearing a Red Robe with an auspicious purple cloud on it, he had long amaranthine hair. His vital force, neither good nor evil, gave him an aura of mystery. "I am the Red Lotus Taoist," he said.
Minghe nodded his head. Just as the Taoist of Heaven and Earth before him, the Red Lotus Taoist then returned to the Flower of Earth. The Evil Separation was indeed a bit strange. With three kinds of origin powers and the Law of Killing given by Minghe, his cultivation had reached the Peak Level of Sage-to-be when he was born which was higher than Minghe himself.
But in terms of attack power, Minghe was superior to him as his cultivation had already been in the late stage of Sage-to-be before he’d killed the Good separation. After killing the Good separation, his power increased 20 percent, and after killing the Evil Separation, his power was increased by almost 30 percent. Before, Minghe had already had a vigorous supernatural power and now it had nearly doubled which was more than an average late stage Sage-to-be could achieve.
