Chapter 676 - Fortunes
The shed skin of the goddess giggled and said, “I’ll just go there and get them out, easy enough . ”
Zhong Yue was awestruck by her suggestion, Did the shed skin of the goddess say she would go there personally and get them out?
Can she actually go wherever she wished? That was so strange . But what did she mean when she said she was the goddess’s past body?
At that very second Zhong Yue thought of this, the blood ocean started to shrink as the blood surged into the body of the goddess’ shed skin; the size of the shed skin was huge, but compared to the blood ocean, she was extremely tiny . However, she managed to contain every single drop of the blood ocean into her body, and that was extremely amazing .
At the same time, a skeleton was revealed as the blood was sucked away . This skeleton was a Dao skeleton, a skeleton imprinted with the Dao of heaven and earth, grand and holy, a skeleton that would make people bow willingly upon seeing it .
The Dao skeleton then slowly merged with the shed skin while one after another detached Dao totem carvings attached together again and flew right into the shed skin .
Ding ding—-
From the sea came accessories like headwear, wristbands, anklets, and others and they slowly flew and positioned themselves on the body of the shed skin .
When the blood ocean disappeared, the shed skin body shrunk to a size similar to Zhong Yue’s and a heartbeat could be heard coming from her chest .
“Let’s go,” said the shed skin as her transformation completed .
Zhong Yue was shocked entirely and all he could do was stare into her with an empty mind while Xin Huo voiced out his question, “You said you are the previous body of the goddess, what did you mean by that? Are you alive or dead?”
“Of course I’m alive,” giggled the shed skin, “I may be the discarded body of the goddess, but innate gods are immortal . The innate gods’ spirits are their souls, their bodies . Thus, while I am Goddess Hou Tu and have her memories, Goddess Hou Tu is not me . Ever since she acquired and mastered the Six Paths Wheel, she shed me away and reforged a new Dao body to become a Dao God . ”
Though what she said was difficult to comprehend, Zhong Yue and Xin Huo still managed to understand what she said .
The Dao body was the current body and the shed skin was the previous body, both were Goddess Hou Tu, but after Goddess Hou Tu discarded her previous body, the previous body did not die away because Goddess Hou Tu was an innate god . Thus, the previous body was still alive and so was the current body .
“Then, how are we supposed to address you?” asked a confused Xin Huo, “Both of you are Goddess Hou Tu, it would be a trouble to differentiate the both of you in the future . ”
With a giggle, the shed skin said cheerfully, “You can call me Goddess Shen Hou . ”
“Shen Hou, nice name . ” Xin Huo praised before immediately asking again, “Goddess Shen Hou, what about the Dao blood you promised us just now? And the【Earth Mother Art of Empress】 . ”
“What a cunning boy, how could I forget?”
Goddess Shen Hou extracted a pool of Dao blood into a sphere . The sphere of blood spun around in her palm and instead of appearing to be actual blood, the ball of blood looked like a purified red ruby . “I’ve prepared it for you long ago . Be careful, I may be able to seal away a portion of the Dao blood’s power, but you still have to be very cautious when refining your inheritor’s bloodline since he is still too weak . Be forewarned that if you are not careful enough, the blood will turn you into a Hua Xu Celestial . ”
Zhong Yue thanked her earnestly and retook control of his body as he accepted the Dao blood from her .
Within the Dao blood was a terrific innate Dao . When the purest bloodline of the Huaxu Celestial Race was in his hands, he felt an inexplicable resonance between him and the blood, causing his original fleshly body to flicker in and out of existence intermittently .
Without a thought, Zhong Yue placed the Dao blood into his psyche ocean somewhere on top of the thunder pool with lightning speed and he figured out that this was not the best time for him to extract the blood .
The Dao blood was, after all, from an innate god and it must be used cautiously or he would be crushed by it .
Goddess Shen Hou then proceeded to teach him the【Earth Mother Art of Empress】, which Zhong Yue went through it detail by detail . He felt that the【Earth Mother Art of Empress】was even more complex than the【Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture】taught to him by Xin Huo . But the【Earth Mother Art of Empress】was obviously a technique made for women, which was not suitable for him or he would turn into a woman .
But he could still take the【Earth Mother Art of Empress】as a reference to improve himself .
Hmmm… I think it’s better if this technique were taught to Senior Martial Sister Jun and Jin’er instead . But the effect would be different depending on the person who taught them this technique . Goddess Shen Hou would be able to maximize the effect if she was the one who taught them, I wonder if I can get her to teach them?
Goddess Shen Hou then looked at him from top to toe and asked curiously, “Is this your real body? Do you need my help?”
Zhong Yue thanked her again, but this time, he rejected, “No, thank you . I’d like to do this myself . ”
Goddess Shen Hou laughed and said, “Alright . It will be slower for you to do it yourself, but it is still a better choice because you will gain a deeper understanding on the Six Path Wheels . Goddess Hou Tu only allowed me to leave this place after the lucky winners came forth . Whatever was bestowed upon you is too little, so I suppose I can teach you another song . ”
Her psyche rippled and a song was directly imprinted to his psyche ocean, but Zhong Yue did not even know what the song was singing about .
The song, however, refused to fade from his mind, and each time it played, he felt that his understanding on the Six Path Wheel deepened . It was truly bemusing .
