Honghuang Xuanyang Dao

Chapter 19: The Black Lotus Appears (Please Collect)
"Just as Daoist friend said, there is indeed a mystery at the intersection of the Yin and Yang forces. It contains an innate formation, called the Innate Yin and Yang Formation, which connects the two sacred mountains and communicates their energy."

"I only occupy the West Kunlun Mountains, so I plan to cut off the luck of the two sacred mountains in the east and west. I once entered the formation in person, but was restrained by the formation and could not break it. However, I saw the innate yin and yang energy in the formation, which can help fellow Taoist to generate yin from yang, or even comprehend the innate yin and yang." Queen Mother of the West said with a faint smile.

"Even with your Taoist supernatural powers and the laws of space, you are still unable to break this innate Yin and Yang formation. I'm afraid this formation must be very powerful." Li Xuanyang asked again.

"As Daoist friend said, this formation is indeed incomparable to ordinary innate formations. Not only does it have the innate yin and yang energy flowing through it, it is also the best at restraining pure yin and pure yang. In addition, there are evil things hidden in the formation."

The Queen Mother of the West changed the subject and said, "Daoist friend, do you know why this western part of the prehistoric world is so desolate?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Xuanyang's eyes flickered. He really knew about this matter. It was caused by the battle between Hongjun Daozu and Demon Ancestor Luohou.

But since it involved Daozu Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohou, he could only shake his head and pretend not to know about it.

"This place was created by a battle between two great masters in the past. As a result, the entire western part of the prehistoric world was shattered, and the innate spiritual energy disappeared. Even now, after countless years, it is still a desolate place with few living creatures."

At this point, Queen Mother Xi's eyes fixed and she said, "The evil hidden in the formation is related to one of the great masters."

"If you can help me break this formation and kill the evil creatures within, not only will you be able to collect the innate Yin and Yang energy within the formation, but also..."

A gleam of light flashed in the Queen Mother of the West's delicate jade hand, and she took out a half-foot-long willow branch. It seemed very soft, and faintly revealed a trace of the law of the great way of space. She said, "This willow branch contains a trace of the law of the great way of space. I can lend it to you temporarily for a while to comprehend it."

As she spoke, Queen Mother of the West reached out and handed the willow branch to Li Xuanyang.

Li Xuanyang took back the words he was about to refuse.

After all, this involves the Taoist Hongjun and the Demon Ancestor Luohou, so it must be very dangerous.

But when he saw the willow branch handed over by the Queen Mother of the West, a trace of horror flashed in his eyes. Could it be that the Queen Mother of the West was related to that person?
Otherwise, how could a mere cultivator at the Golden Immortal level know about the affairs of Daozu Hongjun and Demon Ancestor Luohou!
He also possesses the laws of space, and even plans to break the formation and kill the evil creatures.

Seeing Li Xuanyang lost in thought while looking at the willow branch in his hand, Queen Mother Xi smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, can you agree to this?"

Hearing this, Li Xuanyang came back to his senses, reached out to take the willow branch, and said to the Queen Mother of the West, "Then I will go with you."

He was not coveting the innate yin and yang energy in the formation. After all, innate spiritual objects have their own opportunities and cannot be forced. Instead, he was curious about the origin of the willow branch.

The two discussed it, and Li Xuanyang asked about the situation of the innate Yin-Yang formation. After all, the Queen Mother of the West had once entered the formation in person.

In this regard, Queen Mother of the West did not hide anything and told Li Xuanyang the truth about the situation in the formation that she had seen at the time, and began to discuss with him how the two of them could break the formation together.

"It's too early to discuss how to break the formation. Why don't you take me outside the formation to take a look first!" However, Li Xuanyang planned to see with his own eyes this innate Yin and Yang formation to see what mysteries it has, and then discuss breaking the formation.

"That's good." The Queen Mother of the West called her maid and gave her some instructions. Then she stood up and took Li Xuanyang to ride on the clouds and light to leave West Kunlun and head towards the intersection of the two sacred mountains in the east and west.

After a short while, the two of them rode the clouds and light to the sky, where they saw the innate yin and yang below converging and the two poles evolving. Logically speaking, it should be the yin and yang qi rushing to the sky.

But Li Xuanyang felt a burst of murderous energy coming towards him, and he could sense the murderous intent contained in the formation from afar. It was completely an innate killing formation.

Li Xuanyang's eyes shone with light and he looked into the formation, but he could not see anything inside the formation as it was all blocked by the evil spirit.

"This is truly an innate killing formation. I wonder what kind of evil creature is in the formation that can have such a strong evil aura!" He not only felt the evil aura rising to the sky, but also a trace of evil aura contained in it. Presumably, the evil creature inside must be extraordinary.

"My fellow Daoist was transformed from the innate Xuan Yang Qi, and my body is an innate pure Yin Qi, which is exactly one Yin and one Yang, and can restrain this innate Yin and Yang formation." This is why the Queen Mother of the West invited Li Xuanyang to help break the formation.

"Although what Daoist Fellow said is correct." Li Xuanyang retracted his gaze and said, "But this formation is a world of its own. If you want to break it, you must enter it and walk through it."

It would be fine if it was just an innate formation with no one in charge, but the key is the evil creature that the Queen Mother of the West mentioned.

If not for this, she would have broken the formation last time and would not have kept it until now.

"Now it seems that the only way is to enter the formation and see what's going on." Li Xuanyang was somewhat confident about breaking the formation. His innate Xuanyang Divine Light, innate Liangyi True Fire, and Xuanyang True Fire were all righteous and majestic, extremely yang, which could restrain the evil spirits and evil things in this formation. No matter how extraordinary their origins were, they could eventually be burned to ashes.

At this point, he couldn't help but think of the innate 12th-grade Pure World White Lotus within the Primal Chaos Spirit Spring. If this 12th-grade Pure World White Lotus matured and blossomed to its twelfth rank, he alone would be able to easily break the formation and even kill the evil creatures within. The innate 12th-grade Pure World White Lotus was not only an innate defensive spiritual treasure, but the innate purifying divine light it emanated could purify all things in the universe and was particularly effective in suppressing evil spirits.

"Okay, I'll accompany you into the formation to take a look first." After saying that, Queen Mother of the West summoned the protective divine light and was about to lead Li Xuanyang into the formation.

Seeing this, Li Xuanyang's body flashed with light, revealing the innate Xuanyang divine light to protect him, and he stepped into the formation.

As soon as the two entered the formation, they saw countless evil spirits filling the air, the yin and yang energies intersecting, ghosts everywhere, and even an astonishing demonic energy seemed to be emerging from the depths.

Li Xuanyang's innate Xuanyang divine light radiated from his body, dispelling the approaching evil spirits and ghosts. "It seems that this evil creature is still deep in the formation."

"Just as fellow Taoist said, this evil thing is hidden deep in the formation." A trace of solemnity appeared on the beautiful face of Queen Mother of the West, and it was obvious that she was quite wary of it.

As the evil spirits and ghosts in the formation were completely dissolved by the innate Xuanyang divine light, the scene in the formation changed and the original evil spirit disappeared.

The Yin and Yang evil spirits appeared out of thin air. It was actually the fusion of evil spirit and the innate Yin and Yang energy, forming the innate Yin and Yang evil spirit. It contained the innate two-yin and yang principles. No matter how widespread Li Xuanyang's innate Xuanyang divine light was, it could not do anything to the innate Yin and Yang evil spirit.

"Fellow Daoist, be careful. This is the innate Yin and Yang evil spirit. It is not afraid of the restraint of the Supreme Yang Taoism. We need to pass through this evil spirit before we can go into the inner formation." The Queen Mother of the West protected her body with divine light and reminded Li Xuanyang.

At this time, seeing these innate Yin and Yang evil spirits approaching again, Li Xuanyang felt his soul unstable. He had no choice but to sacrifice the innate Liang Yi lamp and use the innate Liang Yi true fire to protect himself, which spread in the air.

"The innate spiritual treasure, the Yin-Yang Lamp!" Queen Mother Xi's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Daoyou actually has such an innate spiritual treasure to protect you. It seems that this time you will definitely be able to break this formation."

Before the Queen Mother of the West could finish her words, the innate yin and yang evil energy in the air was burned away by the innate yin and yang true fire.

"Just now, fellow Daoist said that this formation is divided into two parts, inner and outer, each with its own unique mysteries."

"The outer formation is where yin and yang meet and the two poles circulate. The inner formation is divided into two formations, one yin and one yang, which can transform into each other. And in the center of the formation, there are innate changes of yin and yang." Li Xuanyang said to the Queen Mother of the West while deducing the mystery of the formation.

"The place in front of us is the outer formation. If you want to break the formation, you can only enter the inner formation. Then fellow Daoist can enter the Yang formation, and I will enter the Yin formation. We will each use our divine light to freeze the formation to avoid being restrained by the changes in the formation." The Queen Mother of the West entered the Yin formation last time.

However, as the formation changed, it changed from a Yin formation to a Yang formation, and was restrained by the Yin and Yang changes of the formation. In addition, there were evil things hiding, so he finally had to retreat.

Relying on the protection of the innate two-yin and yang true fire, the two of them passed through the land of innate yin and yang evil spirits, shuttled through the formation, and looked for the entrance to the inner formation.

But what the two did not expect was that just after passing through the land of innate yin and yang evil spirits, a devilish land appeared before their eyes. From afar, they could feel a devilish energy rising into the sky, which excluded all the yin and yang energy, evil spirits, spiritual energy, etc. in the formation. There seemed to be a spring in the depths.

"This formation seems to have changed for some reason." Looking at the demonic energy in front of her, Queen Mother of the West was shocked. The scene now was completely different from the last time she saw it.

"The source of this change seems to be in the spring, which is also the source of these evil spirits." Li Xuanyang said, pointing to the spring not far away.

In fact, Li Xuanyang was also a little surprised. This demonic energy was so strong that he had never seen it before.

Li Xuanyang then took out the Moon-Swallowing Soul-Devouring Sword, slowly walked to the spiritual spring, and explored the changes in the spiritual spring with the Queen Mother of the West.

Just as Li Xuanyang said, the ink-black water in the entire spiritual spring was transformed from demonic energy, forcing the two of them to subconsciously take a step back.

The Queen Mother of the West stared at the spiritual spring for a while, and suddenly stretched out her slender jade hand and took out a willow branch out of thin air. The branch was obviously larger than the one temporarily lent to Li Xuanyang. She waved it lightly at the spiritual spring, and an almost transparent light was emitted. It fell into the spiritual spring, and the demonic energy inside suddenly churned, and a foreign object seemed to be exposed in the depths.

The next moment, the two saw a palm-sized black lotus slowly floating out, and it was about to come out of the spiritual spring.

This black lotus has blossomed into the ninth grade. Its luster is dim and there are gaps all over it, as if it had experienced a brutal battle.

"Not good, let's go." Queen Mother of the West exclaimed, without saying anything more, her body flashed with light, relying on the mysterious willow branch in her hand, and she tried to break out of the formation using the laws of space.

Li Xuanyang was also shocked. Recognizing the origin of the black lotus, his whole body immediately flashed with light. He unleashed all the power of the innate two-yin and yang true fire and rushed out of the formation.
