Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Feathered Transformation Pagoda, Past Events (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)
Swoosh!
One sword cleaves through time, bringing the years that age a man.
Lu Xuanji’s steps flickered, trying to dodge this sword.
But he found it was utterly unavoidable.
Pfft!
A sword strike landed on his body, instantly dispersing three illusory runes.
The power of time bore upon his body, severing the cultivator’s time, severing the cultivator’s lifespan.
Suddenly, Lu Xuanji felt his lifespan draining away, one breath losing a month’s time.
One minute, a year’s lifespan gone.
Lifespan dwindling, death creeping ever closer.
At most, two hours, and his life would be exhausted unto death.
"Junior, I ask you, what is Dao?" The old man said coldly, "You claim you are the Dao. Speaking grand words requires paying a heavy price! You have two hours. Within these two hours, condense three Time Runes, and you can enter the Seventh Layer."
Lu Xuanji remained silent, beginning to comprehend the [Time Flowing Light Sword].
This Supreme Divine Technique, with its core Time Rune, demanded extremely high comprehension.
"Within the Great Five Elements Yin Yang Magnetic Universe Extinction Divine Saber, ’Yu’ represents space, ’Zhou’ represents time. Back then, I used a phone to deduce, analyze, and deconstruct a Great Divine Technique [Cosmic Saber], but only grasped a little. I didn’t cultivate it, for greediness leads to inefficiency!"
"Now, to pass the trial, there’s no choice but to learn the [Time Flowing Light Sword]."
Lu Xuanji’s thoughts surged, as [Cosmic Saber] and [Time Flowing Light Sword] were both time-oriented Divine Techniques, having similarities and interconnections.
[Cosmic Saber] focuses on time acceleration, making the saber faster.
[Time Flowing Light Sword] focuses on time acceleration, eroding the enemy’s lifespan.
A Time Rune involves a hundred and eight strokes.
Rustle rustle!
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Xuanji used his Divine Thought as a brush, True Essence as ink, and the Dantian as the canvas, inscribing the Time Rune.
A minute to inscribe one Time Rune.
Then, the second Time Rune.
The third Time Rune.

With the three Time Runes inscribed, Lu Xuanji slightly panted, his Divine Soul greatly exhausted.
Instantly, the power of time entwined around him dissipated, his lifespan no longer decreasing.
"Time as the respect, space as the king, is just so. Without invincible cultivation, how can there be time as respect!" Lu Xuanji restrained his aura, stepping forward, saying, "Senior, I have passed this level!"
"Passed!"
The old man spoke, "Arrogant, but with the means to be arrogant."
"Come on!"
The old man entered the light gate, and Lu Xuanji followed.
His figure flickered, entering the Seventh Layer.
In the Seventh Layer, it appeared empty.
The surrounding walls twisted, damaged, as if they had undergone a great war, becoming desolate and dilapidated.
In the center of the Seventh Layer, there was a Great Cauldron.
On the Great Cauldron, Dragon and Phoenix Runes were inscribed, flickering with a terrifying aura.
"In the past, this pagoda had nine layers. Each layer was guarded by a Supreme Treasure. Unfortunately, after that great war, six of the treasures were destroyed over the millennia, leaving only three treasures. This cauldron, named the Heaven-Sacrificial Cauldron, was used for offering sacrifices to the Heavenly Dao!"
"Once, there was a disciple of the Feathered Transformation Sect who offered sacrifices to the Heavenly Dao with this Great Cauldron, and in return, the Heavenly Dao bestowed rewards, converting them into a special physique. What kind of physique it would be depended on their fate."
The old man said, "You can offer a sacrifice to the Heavenly Dao."
Lu Xuanji searched around but found nothing valuable, casually taking out a Heaven Mending Pill and threw it into the Great Cauldron.
Buzz buzz!
The Great Cauldron resonated, immediately the elixir vanished, seemingly communicating with a vast existence in the void.
Moments later, a ball of light appeared in the void.
Transformed into a stream of light, it entered his body.
Lu Xuanji was taken aback, at this moment, his body felt as if flames were burning, from inside to outside, everything was igniting. His five viscera and six organs, bones, meridians, blood, divine soul, all underwent refining. His body creaked, expelling black impurities.
A red flame burned upon his body, complementing it like a Flame God.
Moments later, the flame dissipated.
Lu Xuanji invoked Magic, cleansing his body, and changed into a new set of clothes.
Feeling his body, it seemed unchanged, his physique unchanged, strength unchanged, realm unchanged, still the same.
"Congratulations on achieving the Pure Yang Dao Body!"
The old man said, "The Pure Yang Dao Body is one of the top Dao Bodies, accompanied by the Lifebound Divine Techniques [Pure Yang True Flame] and [Dual Cultivation Bonus]. It can be used to attack with Pure Yang True Flame and refine True Essence. It also provides a certain supplement for cultivation. If dual cultivated, the speed would be faster."
"In the past, a little girl obtained the [Immortal Sword Body] here, gaining unparalleled attack power. You both have good fortune."
"Pure Yang Dao Body, not bad at all!"
Lu Xuanji said, "Thank you, elder, for your guidance!"
"It has nothing to do with me; it’s your fate. The Heavenly Dao’s rewards are quite random, often depending on luck, and you have good fortune!" The old man said, "Fortune is elusive, but for cultivators to succeed, they cannot do without it. Now, proceed to the second trial, and answer once more, what is Dao?"
The same question again.
After a moment’s hesitation, Lu Xuanji said directly, "I am the Dao!"
"I’ll ask you again, what is Dao?"
The old man asked.
"I am the Dao!"
"Take this sword of mine, this sword cleaves forth, and in an instant, your lifespan will be exhausted unto death!" The old man’s aura transformed, eighteen Time Runes combined into one sword, poised to strike.
Swoosh!
At this moment, Lu Xuanji invoked the [Elemental Magnetic Celestial Saber], ready but not unleashed, coldly saying, "The artifact spirit is dead, senior is a remnant soul, how much strength do you have left?"
"Alas, you saw through it after all!"
At this moment, the pressure of the overbearing old man immediately diminished, no longer sustaining strength, but becoming withered, as if ready to dissipate at any time.
Lu Xuanji also sheathed his blade, warily asking, "The artifact spirit is dead, who are you, senior?"
"In that year, the Feathered Transformation Pagoda suffered heavy damage, the nine treasures within were either completely destroyed or severely damaged. The artifact spirit of the Feathered Transformation Pagoda was also slain, as for me, I am merely a fragment of the artifact spirit’s fixation, hardly even a remnant soul!"
"Thereafter, the Feathered Transformation Pagoda fell into ruins, and I too entered slumber, passing countless years in slumber, until the relic opened, and someone came seeking fortune."
The old man said, "When the Jin Family from the Central State excavated the Feathered Transformation ruins, they discovered the Feathered Transformation Pagoda, but before they could organize their findings, they faced a siege from strong enemies, and the Jin Family was exterminated. That female cultivator escaped to the Eastern Wilderness with the Feathered Transformation Pagoda."
