Chapter 548: Six Paths Legal Forms

The tomb had transformed into a demon, a rare occurrence met by the equally rare Six Paths treasure cabinet.

Li Hui squeezed with all his strength and surprisingly crushed the Spirit Bright Great Saint’s Qi Tian Talisman. Suddenly, light burst from his acupoints, leading a shadow to land behind him, transforming into a scratching and fidgeting monkey, baring its teeth and looking around!

“Path of Beasts, the stone monkey becomes a demon, go!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the stone monkey’s eyes widened, and its form began to swell, instantaneously transforming into a slender-faced Daoist with a monkey’s face, who bore a striking resemblance to Li Hui.

“Path of Hell, self-painted bone becomes Dao, go!”

Li Hui clapped his hands against his robe, generating a terrifying force that violently pushed the self-painted bone out of him, with his acupoints releasing light to guide it, causing the self-painted bone, adorned with the Flower of the Other Shore, to flash and vanish behind him.

“Path of Hungry Ghosts, Tao Wu becomes a ghost, go!”

The red-gold pangolin beneath his feet stiffened, and a series of dull sounds exploded from within it, causing chaotic energies to burst forth, violently impacting the corpse of Tao Wu. Remarkably, runes swirled around the corpse, extracting the most profound and malevolent essence, which swiftly coalesced behind Li Hui into a tall and imposing ghostly figure.

“Path of Asura, our sect becomes demonic, go!”

Li Hui’s form seemed to split in two, projecting behind him a fifty-zhang tall red-haired demon lord, complete with dragon horns and a wicked smile, surveying its surroundings before vanishing.

“Path of Humanity, Bai Ze becomes a person, go!”

The moment he spoke, Li Hui’s heart of Dao began to recalibrate, attempting to seize control of the Six Paths. However, the higher realm of magic suppressed his heart, causing it to merge with Bai Ze, crashing down behind him as a suave Daoist, resembling Li Hui’s usual form.

“Path of Heaven, legal form like heaven, go!”

His Dantian and back vibrated intensely as a silver snake with a hairpin-like shape suddenly surged forth.

The silver snake thrashed its tail, stirring countless lights and shadows. When the shadows converged, it seemed as if the Celestial Emperor descended step by step from the heavenly palace, transforming into an expressionless human with a snake’s tail.

“Six Paths complete, let the reincarnation commence!”

From behind Li Hui erupted six beams of light, swirling terrifyingly. The red-gold pangolin was the first to suffer; each beam of light swept over it, causing it to shrink in size. After nine sweeps of the six beams, it transformed from a massive creature to a real pangolin size, its eyes glazing over as it collapsed.

Prime Minister Turtle was the next to suffer, layers of dark energy stripped away from him, and the Bony Hand in the prison vanished entirely; even a rare essence of the path of heaven was drawn from him.

In Li Hui’s eyes, these were mere trifles, as six human-shaped legal forms emerged from behind him, each towering sixty-six zhàng high. His real goal lay with the tomb demon and the ancient demons.

“Whoosh, Six Paths of Reincarnation!”

The six human-shaped legal forms vanished once again, and the six beams of light surged forward.

Despite being a bit distant and impacted by the heavenly tribulation, their power was still significantly diminished, yet they steadily swept away demonic and ghostly energies, feasting upon malevolent curses without discrimination, truly terrifying!

“Roar…”

The tomb let out a furious roar, and suddenly, the ground split open into a gigantic gash, resembling its mouth, spewing forth a skyward eruption of red light, a devastating expulsion of demonic essence.

The Six Paths of Reincarnation remained unaffected, continuing their sweeping actions. Li Hui even moved closer, sensing his own demonic and ghostly powers surging wildly.

“Hahaha, this is the essence of nurturing talismans, this is the treasure cabinet. Regardless of whether they are humans, ghosts, demons, or the very Dao and heaven, none can escape my grasp.”

“Right, right, right! Just like this, my potential is as vast as the sea; my might is as terrifying as a prison.”

“With such potential, I can forcibly elevate my Ideal Body. Who needs to painstakingly collect Heavenly Treasures and Earthly Treasures?” Li Hui declared triumphantly: “Path of Humanity, you shall cultivate the Ideal Body; Path of Demons, you shall study the Dragon Spring Purple Talisman Classic; Path of Heaven, you will hone the exceptional Divine Bird Technique; Path of Ghosts, you will master the time Dragon Claw; Path of Demons, you will practice the Cloud-Brush Dragon Claw Technique; and Path of Hell, you will refine the Flower of the Other Shore robe, transforming these two artifacts into my Personal Artifacts!”

The six legal forms sat cross-legged, practicing endlessly, consuming potential at rates beyond ordinary measures.

Without integrating the appropriate Heavenly Treasures and Earthly Treasures, it was astonishing that such vast potential truly elevated the Ideal Body, yet this approach exceeded all limits of extravagance.

Training the Dragon Spring Purple Talisman Classic and the exceptional Divine Bird Technique also consumed a fair bit; it merely took about sixty breaths to reach a balance of gains and losses, utilizing as much potential as they consumed—spending lavishly at an unprecedented height.

The six legal forms were slowly growing; the Demonic Dao legal form steadily surpassed the others. Li Hui’s gaze grew brighter, viewing the tomb demon as a lavish feast, seizing the chance amidst the intensifying heavenly tribulation and unleashing wave after wave of energy.

“Boom!” The tribulation thunder suddenly intensified, striking not at the tomb demon but rather at the Cloud-Brush Dragon Claw Technique and the Flower of the Other Shore robe.

The Cloud-Brush Dragon Claw Technique and the Flower of the Other Shore robe were linked to his meridians and transformed into Personal Artifacts. Thus, they fell under the purview of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, immediately deepening their foundations and giving rise to layers of divine charm.

After a quarter of an hour, even Li Hui’s acupoints attracted the heavenly tribulation, signaling that the Jade Demon Talismans and Jade Demon Talismans showed signs of advancing to Celestial Talismans. Despite such swift progress, he felt it was still too slow, so he stepped toward the tomb.

“Crack…”

The tomb demon unleashed several bursts of brilliance, including stone tools and bone artifacts, intending to eliminate this troublesome cultivator in one fell swoop.

The Ghost Dao legal form suddenly sprang into action; under the grasp of the time Dragon Claw, all the stone tools and bone artifacts shattered into pieces, fluttering down to the ground, infuriating the tomb demon, which let out a furious roar.

Li Hui drew out the Azure Sky Jade Symbol Sword and retrieved a gourd filled with Yang Gu, never intending to leave any possessions behind for the Jieyin, throwing them toward the tomb, conjuring the Azure Sky Rock Worm and Yang Gu.

This action caught the tomb demon off guard; the Azure Sky Rock Worm burrowed into the tomb to consume metal, while the Yang Gu absorbed dark energy, specifically targeting those bone artifacts infused with dark energy.

The six beams of light swept along with the Azure Sky Rock Worm and Yang Gu, compelling them to frantically search for food to offset the damage, startling the tomb demon into unleashing its deadly attacks, producing thunderous roars as it rose into the air.

Layer after layer of the tomb chamber ascended to the surface, forming an overwhelmingly vast presence.

Li Hui stood speechless for five breaths, astonished: “So this being is so massive! No wonder the heavenly tribulation seeks to envelop the entire Small Heavenly Cave. I’ve been too conservative; let’s integrate this Small Heavenly Cave into the treasure cabinet space.”

“Capture!”

All six legal forms acted at once, causing the Small Heavenly Cave to suddenly contract, with many areas piling up to form towering mountains.

“Stack!”

The space shrank again, many mountains stacking upon one another.

The heavenly tribulation abruptly intensified, and the tomb demon felt mounting pressure, unable to spare any effort to eliminate the invasive little worms. Meanwhile, the six beams of light continued to sweep again and again, drawing away a large quantity of demonic energy and ghostly energy, nearing its essence.

“Capture again!”

“Stack again!”

Li Hui repeated the stacking ten times, reducing the cave size tenfold.

The ground rose dramatically, and a few peaks even grazed the heavens.

All six legal forms stomped together, causing the earth to crack, and they struck the peaks to continue stacking, naturally depleting the demonic and ghostly energies from the tomb demon since this creature was so enormous; they could sweep as much as needed.

As the stacking continued, the surrounding earth rose steadily, enveloping the tomb within, ultimately transforming into a colossal ball of earth three hundred miles in size, and it kept shrinking…
