Extraordinary Great Antiquity Chapter 3

Luo Fan was no longer connected with Mount Buzhou or the world; that feeling of being able to support heaven and earth had vanished.

However, he had no time to observe the changes of his body because the mysterious cycle had already started revolving. His body was furiously trying to absorb that enormous quant.i.ty of chaos vitalities erupting from his abdomen.

Suddenly, the entire burrow's chaos vitalities appeared to explode, smas.h.i.+ng Luo Fan off the ground immediately wrapping him in a dense, gray fog.

Although that mysterious cycle was incomparably profound and its absorbancy was incredible, it had its limits.

At this time, the acc.u.mulated vitality of the burrow burst, emitting ten thousand times the average amount of chaos vitality. He had no way to absorb it entirely.

The instinct of Luo Fan wasn't good. It felt strange to him that he had to work so hard to revolve the mysterious cycle even though it had already become an instinct.

The chaos vitality around him continued rus.h.i.+ng furiously into his body, causing him to feel powerful and intense pains. It was infiltrating his body faster than he could transform it, and gradually he began feeling as if his whole body would burst into numerous pieces.

This was the final counterattack of the burrow! The core of all the vitalities of chaos had swarmed Luo Fan. If he absorbs them entirely, his strength will drastically increase. But if he can't, he will explode into numerous pieces and disappear between heaven and earth.

The severe pain was still becming more intense and the feeling of fullness more self-evident. Luo Fan's heart suddenly burst into fear. He was afraid to die making everything within his peripheral sensation unprecedentedly clear.

At this moment, Mount Buzhou's boundless, unyielding breath began to pour into his Spirit Platform (灵台).

Mount Buzhou, Pangu's backbone, Great Antiquity's heavenly pillar…the support of both heaven and earth…if Buzhou collapses, the heavens s.h.i.+ft…if Buzhou breaks, the earth sinks…Once such an enlightenment emerged, his heart became one with the Great Antiquity.

He had entered into a similar condition a thousand years earlier. But this situation was somewhat subtly different!

This state was most profound and most wonderful.

As he entered this state, the revolution speed of the mysterious cycle in his body increased to over a 100x, no a 1000x!

The last essences of the burrow's chaos vitality were completely transformed and absorbed at an extremely insane speed before spilling into his Mud Pill Palace (泥丸宫) .

The feeling that his body would explode slowly abated.

This process lasted for a day and a night.

The surrounding chaos vitalities disappeared completely into his body after a day and a night, clearing the burrow and revealing heaven and earth…

Luo Fan's body shook slightly, and from that deep state he woke up. As he gradually opened his eyes, his body slowly fell to the ground.

Although a mere day and night had pa.s.sed, it had felt like a lifetime.

Luo Fan looked around, moving away from his thoughts.

"How did the chaos vitality disappear?" He whispered underneath his breath.

Instantly, he became aware: "Unconsciously, a thousand years have already pa.s.sed…"

His body was now nine meters long and six meters high; twice as big as he was a thousand years ago.

He was a colossus.

When he s.h.i.+fted his mind, everything within 100 miles appeared in his heart. Everything was incredibly clear down to the smallest detail. There were no dead angles!

As Luo Fan examined the surrounding 100 miles, his was filled with an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

Then, he stopped inducing the outside. He wanted to know what else had been improved. Drawing on his will, he quickly entered his divine soul, that is, the inside of the little Pixiu.

Through the eyes of the little Pixiu, he saw his sea of consciousness had increased to 100 meters. But the edges were still gray and dusky, just like the condition of chaos.

In the middle of his sea of consciousness, the Pixiu itself had also risen a hundred-fold; from its initial fist size to six or seven meters long and three or four meters high. It had also gone from illusory and somewhat transparent to dusky. It was like a real life with real flesh and blood.

When his will entered the Pixiu, he suddenly had an incredibly intense feeling that he could tear everything into shreds.

Obviously, this divine soul was considerably stronger than it was a thousand years ago!

As Luo Fan continued exploring sea of consciousness, he was suddenly enlightened.

"This is the Mud Pill Palace (泥丸宫); it holds the so-called sea of consciousness…"

With this awareness he was instantly separated from the little Pixiu. He felt like some powerful force had just wrenched him out of the inner s.p.a.ce. Afterward, his will was forced to envelop his entire body and as it did the internal conditions of his body came into view. Nothing was omitted under his mind's induction.

"It turns out that the inside my body is like this…really enlarges one's vision…" Luo Fan didn't panic because an instinct in his heart told him this change was more beneficial than harmful. Besides, this was Luo Fan's first glance inside the stature of this legendary creature. The mysteries it contained was far beyond his imagination.

Although this Pixiu also had internal organs (five viscera and six bowels), meridians, and numerous blood vessels and muscles, it was dissimilar from anything he had ever seen before.

The structure and connection of its organs were more delicate than a human, but they were also more wonderful.

He compared the position and the structure of these organs with those of the human body's he'd seen on the earth. He didn't even need to think about it for too long to understand that this body was far more advanced! And finer!

Just by comparing the positions, he even came up with four or five ways to transform the human body, which would make people stronger and more efficient. 

Shaking his head, he s.h.i.+fted his mind from the exquisitely structured organs. He wanted to examine a different structure, the energy cycle of his body, a product of a thousand years of hard work.

Quickly, the mysterious energy circulation route appeared in his mind. As soon as his state of mind moved, a mysteriously profound energy flowed out of his Mud Pill Palace (泥丸宫) , and began moving through the energy circulation route.

But as the energy was circulating, numerous words and pictures suddenly jumped from the deepest parts of his mind. After the energy had completed a full revolution and returned to his Mud Pill Palace (泥丸宫), the numerous writings and pictures started fusing into a mysteriously complex secret art. While the new secret art was forming into something coprehensible, he began to feel an intimate connection with it.

This secret art did not have any name, but its effect was far more complicated and profound. He could not fully understand the mysteries hidden within this nameless method and he wouldn't until he had practiced it completely.

Even with his limited understanding, he at least knew it had a strong absorption and conversion capability.

However, he was actually more concerned about something else.

"What are these writings?" Luo Fan wondered.

Clearly, these writings were nothing he had studied. It was also not of any language he recognized. It wasn't simplified (简体字) or traditional (繁体字), small seal script (小篆) or large seal script (大篆), and it wasn't the official script (隶书) or bone-script (甲骨文); and it was impossible for it to be any foreign language.

This kind of text was very profound, and its every word was like a drawing depicting the myriad Grand Daos. It had countless places of subtle mystery worth examining and studying.

This was definitely not a text that had been learned or pa.s.sed down by nature. Luo Fan had extreme confidence in that fact. And it was naturally not the kind of text that Luo Fan had learned on Earth of this he was even more certain.

But these writings had come from his mind's deepest regions, a situation that was truly worth pondering…
