King of Creation Chapter 1753 - 1738: Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal

"After hearing about your current predicament, my master conveyed this message: While your situation is indeed uncommon, the precise reason you cannot advance to the Dark Palace Realm is quite clear," stated Mountain God Yi Xun, settling down to speak with measured tones.

"The primary cause lies in your extraordinary innate talent, having already condensed the Primordial Spirit in your early stages. Furthermore, this is a Four-colored Primordial Spirit, condensed from the rare Four-colored Innate Soul Light, a phenomenon seldom seen among human cultivators.

This Four-colored Primordial Spirit possesses greater might and potency than ordinary Primordial Spirits, which is precisely why, despite prolonged accumulation, you have remained unable to achieve a breakthrough."

Mountain God Yi Xun articulated his words deliberately, while Ye Zhen listened with rapt attention. "Since the cause has been identified, is there a viable solution?" he inquired.

"My master affirmed that once the reason is known, a remedy can indeed be formulated." This time, Ye Zhen refrained from interrupting, eagerly awaiting Mountain God Yi Xun's continuation.

"The sole solution my master has devised for you is to suppress or limit your Primordial Spirit Power entirely," Mountain God Yi Xun declared.

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen's countenance immediately soured, for he well understood the depth of this challenge. He had, in fact, contemplated this very approach and even attempted it.

However, suppressing or limiting Primordial Spirit Power is far easier said than done.

The method of expending Divine Soul Power had been experimented with by Ye Zhen on several occasions, but proved utterly ineffective.

Ye Zhen's Primordial Spirit Majesty originates from the pressure exerted by his Primordial Spirit and Divine Soul Origin; it is not directly correlated with the sheer strength of his Divine Soul Power.

Moreover, depleting too much of his Divine Soul Power might jeopardize his very ability to sustain the process of Condensed Casting for the Dark Palace.

"After considerable deliberation, my master has conceived of only two truly effective methods for suppressing or limiting your Primordial Spirit Power," Mountain God Yi Xun revealed.

The mention of 'effective' methods immediately brightened Ye Zhen's expression, and he turned his keen gaze towards Mountain God Yi Xun.

"The first method involves obtaining the assistance of a trusted and powerful expert to inflict severe injury upon your Divine Soul Origin. This would naturally cause your Primordial Spirit Majesty to diminish significantly, allowing you to break through by seizing that opportune moment.

However, my master cautioned that this approach is fraught with excessive peril. Self-inflicted grievous harm to the Divine Soul Origin carries immense risks; a slight miscalculation could lead to the utter disintegration of your soul.

Even if one were to succeed in merely injuring the Divine Soul Origin, its subsequent restoration would likely demand several centuries, and even then, complete recovery might prove elusive.

Furthermore, a Dark Palace forged under the duress of a severely injured Divine Soul Origin would inherently be flawed and ultimately fail, effectively severing your martial cultivation path. It is an absolutely unfeasible course of action."

Ye Zhen could only offer a wry smile upon hearing this. Indeed, this very method had been previously suggested by Ling Qianbi, who possessed profound knowledge of Divine Souls. Yet, its execution was exceedingly dangerous, and even if successful, the ensuing complications would be endless.

"And what of the second method?" Ye Zhen placed his hopes on the second strategy proposed by the Grand Venerable of the Five Immortals Heavenly Destiny Hall.

"The second method entails utilizing an external force to impose limitations upon your Primordial Spirit, thereby constraining the majesty of your Primordial Spirit Divine Soul to a specific degree. This would enable you to condense the Dark Palace without impediment.

Once your Dark Palace is fully stabilized, and you subsequently elevate your cultivation slightly to fortify it, you could then remove the external suppression and smoothly advance to the Dark Palace Realm," explained Mountain God Yi Xun.

"But how exactly can this limitation be achieved?" Ye Zhen inquired, a hint of bitterness in his smile.

Inhibiting a person's Divine Soul Power is a relatively straightforward matter, but to accomplish this for the Primordial Spirit, which intrinsically contains the essence of the Divine Soul Origin, without causing any harm to the latter, is fundamentally impossible.

At least, no such method had ever occurred to Ye Zhen.

Mountain God Yi Xun seemed to perceive Ye Zhen's unspoken thoughts. "Restricting Primordial Spirit Power is indeed a formidable challenge. Even my master, with his profound cultivation, cannot achieve the feat of limiting your Primordial Spirit Power without jeopardizing your Divine Soul Origin.

Nevertheless, there exists a unique treasure in this world, meticulously formed under a confluence of extreme conditions, which naturally possesses the inherent capability to regulate Primordial Spirit Power."

"What manner of treasure is this?" Ye Zhen pressed eagerly.

"It is the Acquired Spirit Treasure, the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal!" Mountain God Yi Xun responded.

"The Acquired Spirit Treasure, the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal?" Ye Zhen repeated, a frown of confusion creasing his brow. "I confess, Great Deacon Yi, I have never encountered the name of such a treasure before. Does the Five Immortals Hall possess such an item?"

Seeing Mountain God Yi Xun shake his head, Ye Zhen pressed further, "Great Deacon Yi, may I ask if you know whose possession this treasure is in or where it can be found?"

"Do not rush, allow this old man to explain it to you, piece by piece."

Mountain God Yi Xun expounded for a full hour, meticulously revealing to Ye Zhen the origin and current location of the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal.

The essence of this Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal is the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Blood Evil, and the conditions required for its formation are exceedingly stringent.

It must originate from the heart of a massive battlefield, where the remains of tens of thousands, even millions, of corpses lie. For a millennium, accumulated Blood Qi, Evil Qi, Killing Qi, Resentment Qi, and Death Qi must ferment and condense before a single wisp of Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Blood Evil can emerge.

Furthermore, throughout this thousand-year period, the battlefield must remain unpurified. Periodically, every few dozen to hundreds of years, fresh corpses and blood, along with fresh killing, evil qi, resentment, and death qi, must be introduced to facilitate the condensation of Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Blood Evil and the subsequent forging of this Acquired Supreme Treasure, the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal.

The conditions for its creation are incredibly demanding, and by sheer heavenly chance, the appearance of even one wisp is a stroke of immense fortune.

However, in the ancient epochs, a total of three strands of Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Blood Evil manifested, implying the existence of only three Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seals.

The first seal, it is said, materialized naturally into the world, its ultimate recipient unknown.

Both the second and third seals, however, were forged through intentionally ignited conflicts. Powerful entities orchestrated wars, selecting specific battlefields to generate countless corpses, Blood Qi, Evil Qi, Killing Qi, Resentment Qi, and Death Qi, which then condensed into Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Blood Evil, ultimately leading to the refinement of the respective Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seals.

Without a formidable power backing such an endeavor, deliberately cultivating two Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seals would be utterly impossible.

For the well-informed Five Immortals Hall, this information is not obscure, and Mountain God Yi Xun had already investigated it for Ye Zhen.

One of these seals belongs to the Heavenly Temple, an organization currently focused on recruiting followers and propagating its doctrines globally.

It is known that the Heavenly Temple, through orchestrating conflicts among the Enfeoffed Nations of the Great Zhou Dynasty for over fourteen hundred years, successfully condensed and forged an extraordinarily potent Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal.

Legends claim that during those fourteen centuries, more than one hundred million soldiers perished in battle!

Regrettably, while the Five Immortals Hall is aware that the Heavenly Temple possesses a Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal, they remain uncertain about the specific individual within the organization who holds it.

According to Mountain God Yi Xun's deductions, it is most likely in the custody of the Nine Suns Divine King of the Heavenly Temple's Sun and Moon Heaven, or perhaps in the possession of the Evil Punishing Thunder King from Thunder Prison Peak.

As for the whereabouts of the third Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal, it holds a significant connection to Ye Zhen.

The third Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal was acquired by the Ancestral Shrine of Great Zhou after they dedicated eight hundred years and initiated several brutal campaigns to condense and refine it.

Its location is also clearly established.

This third Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal currently resides within the War Soul Hall of the Ancestral Shrine of Great Zhou, serving as the supreme treasure of that particular hall!
