Chapter 573: Chapter 69 Vitality

The thoughts of destruction surged, and within Qing Yu, Yin and Yang Qi ground together violently, causing intense fluctuations where the two energies merged, brewing a strong destructive aura.

If he were to continue down this path, Qing Yu’s Yin and Yang Qi would completely fuse, allowing him to reach the peak of the True Pill Realm without further obstacles.

However, this was not what Qing Yu desired.

"Pure destruction is not what I seek, the end result of this path will eventually harm both others and myself. In essence, this path discards the principle I had always upheld—of opposing and yet transforming Yin and Yang—and leads me towards a singular and extreme path."

Qing Yu slightly furrowed his brows and dispersed the merging Yin and Yang Qi.

From one came two, from two came three, from three came everything. Qing Yu had always followed this path back and forth.

During his Innate state, one Qi transformed into myriad forms, using his own True Qi combined with Tribulation Power to simulate thousands of different True Qi forms. In the Divine Origin Realm, the Circulation of the Six Voids Technique was invented, with the eight phases harmonizing and circulating endlessly, giving birth to countless possibilities.

Upon completion of the True Pill Realm, Qing Yu combined all his previous learning into one, pushing back against the myriad techniques to return to the state of Wuji, hoping to trace back to the initial state of Dao.

For the final destination of this path, Qing Yu termed it "Heavenly Person."

Always adhering to the origin, termed as a Heavenly Person. The origin is the source— the Dao. Qing Yu wanted to use all his learning as a ladder to climb back to the fundamental path of Dao.

Now, Qing Yu had reached the stage of two returning to one; his Yin and Yang Qi represented his two forms, his own duality.

Yet, the focus of this return to one was merely simple destruction.

Qing Yu raised his palm, where the blending of Yin and Yang Qi regenerated and faintly rushed towards the former scene.

Displeased with the destruction Qi Force, Qing Yu frowned and fell deep into thought.

"What I seek is not just a return to one, but also a return to Dao. Moreover, after achieving this state, I can again undergo the process ’from one comes two, from two comes three, from three comes everything.’ Thus, going with or against will, one is all and all is one, that is my pursuit. A path that is too singular and unchanging does not suit my desires."

With these thoughts, Qing Yu instinctively touched the Demon Control Token resting on his knee.

Although he hadn’t managed to touch the edges of Emperor Qi Tian by contemplating the Demon Control Token during this time, the results were still very remarkable.

Such as the enlightenment derived from the grinding and merging of the two Qi, which came from it.

Unfortunately, this was not what Qing Yu wanted. Or perhaps, it was only a part of what he desired.

"Emperor Qi Tian descended into the world for destruction; this strand of Demonic Qi naturally carries his intent for mere destruction. As for the other aspect of destruction leading to rebirth, traces within the Demonic Qi are scant." Qing Yu helplessly shook his head and sighed.

In the original story, Emperor Qi Tian was the first Martial God of the Heavenly Realm, also the god of destruction and rebirth and naturally wouldn’t only follow the path of pure destruction. But his descent was indeed for the purpose of destruction, hence the Qi carried mainly this Demon Intent.

"If I wish to continue to enlighten, I need to clearly understand Vitality, balancing it with the thoughts of destruction."

But this was quite difficult.

Even with Qiuli to help, Qing Yu still couldn’t grasp any direction.

Although Qiuli encompasses the Vitality of heaven and earth and inspired Zhuangzi to create "The Carefree Trip," compared to Zhuangzi, Qing Yu lacked the initial touch of life.

Though familiar with the utilization of Vitality, and also proficient in the "Undying Seal Technique" that involves the transformation of life and death, if compared with Qing Yu’s Enlightenment on death, it still appeared paltry.

After all, Qing Yu’s journey had been one of killing and ruthless eradication. Moreover, the recently attained Cultivation Techniques, whether it’s "Innate Invisible Sword Qi" or the "Xuanyin Twelve Swords," were extremely fierce moves intended to claim lives.

"Innate Invisible Sword Qi" was initially cultivated by absorbing Death Qi, practicing the Death Spirit Sword. Although Qing Yu directly skipped this phase, it didn’t mean that this Martial Arts technique was any less fierce.

As for the "Xuanyin Twelve Swords," it was incredibly malevolent, taking lives effortlessly and unable to be connected with Vitality in any aspect.

"After advancing to the True Pill Realm, my mental state has become increasingly indifferent; under these circumstances, trying to understand life’s initial touch is truly challenging for me, Qing Yu."

With these thoughts, Qing Yu felt even more helpless.

With his current mental state, even crying would just be due to an excess of salt, just like crocodile tears. Furthermore, if Qing Yu wished, even these excessive salt-induced tears would not occur. He could directly adjust his body’s condition.

Under these conditions, moving him was indeed harder than ascending to the heavens.

"Hmm?" Just then, Qing Yu suddenly felt a throbbing, a throbbing of life.

"I feel that my opportunity is approaching..."

The sudden surge of motivation made Qing Yu frown excessively.

For a high master of the True Pill Realm, such surges of motivation were naturally no coincidence, nor were they mere figments of imagination, but indeed real.

However, Qing Yu had always been in seclusion, so how could this opportunity have arisen?

"It couldn’t possibly be a case of ’sitting at home and the opportunity descends from the sky.’ How could such a scenario happen to me?"

Although his story began with deep-seated vengeance, as a disciple of a framed person secluded in deep forests, Qing Yu was very clear about his own actions.

"How could someone like me, who commits arson and indiscriminate killing, possibly have this kind of treatment where opportunities fall from the sky?"

Such scenarios are typically reserved for righteous main characters, totally unrelated to Qing Yu. For someone like Qing Yu, it’s more common to encounter misfortunes descending from the sky.

It would be more normal if someone suddenly came seeking revenge against Qing Yu, shouting and fighting.

However...

"Ugh–"

Qing Yu felt another pulse, more frequent and intense than before.

"This feeling is right in the Imperial Palace, right in..."

Just then, as if he heard a cry in his ear. A new life had come into this world, uttering its first cry.

"This feeling..."

A genuine touch of Vitality, though it didn’t move him to tears, Qing Yu understood the touch of life.

Feng Jiwu’s child was born.

As Qing Yu’s Tribulation Slave, Feng Jiwu’s child also belonged to Qing Yu. The "Black Heaven Book" curses spread across three generations, and this was still the second generation, the sensation was very clear.

Moreover, because of Qing Yu’s supreme Realm, he experienced the sensation of birth as if it was his own.

At the same time, outside the Qianqing Palace, Feng Jiwu heard the midwife’s good news.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, the Empress has given birth smoothly, both mother and daughter are safe, it’s a little princess," the midwife shouted.
