Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme - C.363 - 241: Begin_1

Chapter 363: Chapter 241: Begin_1

In the world of Taoism, within the halls of the Wan Dao School, on the Golden Turtle Island.

The Nine Ceremony High Altar rose again, drawing in three thousand trails of incense like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, vast and mighty.

The Luotian Dajiao ritual was once more upheld.

Atop the high altar, one man sat alone, his cultivation nearing perfection.

No waves surged, no complications arose, three thousand years of arduous cultivation formed the foundation of his Dao.

The prior tribulations lay in the Mana Point, and although the Wan Dao School merged the wisdom of all beings and their Taoist achievements, the top-tier Nascent Soul cultivators were few, some even choosing Ascension, and owing to the vast gap between the Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation, even a thousand years did not accrue the necessary breakthrough, merely perfecting the Nascent Soul cultivation.

However, three years ago, a turning point came with the harvest reaped by the Yang God’s split incarnation, breaking through the predicament.

In three years, first to benchmark, then to improve, adapting to one’s own situation, removing the chaff to keep the grain, integrating the obtained cultivation techniques with one’s own system for mutual verification, finally unveiling the Deity Transformation Chapter of the Taoist Martial Two Scriptures.

In just three years, he integrated and refined the cultivation techniques to such a state, an impossible feat for others, but for Xu Yang, it was natural, his profound potential and unique traits aiding him.

His cultivation was complete, the final step imminent.

Within the Qi Sea, inside the Dantian, a baby with an identical face, plump and white, clutched a divine seal, undergoing the ultimate metamorphosis.

Glowing with Spirit Light, brimming with Mana, the Nascent Soul embracing the divine seal, the cultivator’s Three Flowers, the Five Qi within the body, now coalescing in the Palace of the Mud Pill, birthing the Purple Mansion of the Spiritual Platform.

The Nascent Soul in the Lower Dantian ascended through the chest Dantian, harnessing the body’s Five Qi, then into the brain’s Mud Pill, fusing with the Three Flowers above, and finally in the Palace of the Mud Pill, a burst of purple haze emerged, forming a hidden immortal palace.

With purple haze swirling, the Nascent Soul entered, rapidly growing and transforming, in a blink becoming a young man, indistinguishable from Xu Yang himself, majestic and radiant in his robes, holding the divine seal, a Holy Sword on his back, clouds and thunder beneath his feet, flashing with the Divine Light of the Heavenly Eye upon his brow, opening to illuminate the realms above and the Underwood below.

Behold an exalted divine being, a True Immortal indeed!

That is the Purple House Nascent Infant, the foundation of the Immortal Path!

Xu Yang opened his eyes, a flash of purple light in his pupils, the myriad marvels dissipating, displaying the profound foundation of the cultivator that had already stabilized upon breaking through.

Qi Refinement gathers the Mech Spirit, Nature and Self shed the mundane world.

Foundation Establishment accumulates the Three Flowers, the Great Dao has its origin and end.

Golden Core solidifies the Five Qi, the Life Fire refining true metal.

Nascent Soul achieves Rebirth, wresting control of life and death.

The Primordial Spirit opens the Mud Pill, the Purple Mansion cultivating the immortal root.

The Immortal Spirit transforms into the Primordial Spirit, the Purple Mansion gives birth to the immortal root, this body harbors hopes of the Great Dao!

“Zhuanzhou Mengdie dreams for five thousand years, roaming through countless worlds amassing lifetimes of achievements”

“Today I plant the immortal essence in me, tomorrow I’ll ascertain the true fruit of my Dao.”

“Ha!!”

The cultivator rose to his feet, laughing heartily, a sound of sheer satisfaction, feeling utterly relieved.

Instantly, a sword’s light shot up, and he departed amidst thunder and lightning.

…

On the shores of the East Sea, in the Demon Manifestation Region.

Four great Mecha stood tall, securing the four directions.

Thunder and lightning heralded his arrival, the sword light swiftly approaching.

Four beams of divine light flew out to meet the oncoming tempest of the sword.

“Congratulations, Taoist Master, on your successful Divinity Transformation!”

“A blessing for the Scholar’s Palace, a fortune for the world!”

The four bowed deeply, their voices in unison offering congratulations and praise.

Had there been others present, they would’ve been astonished to discover that these four great Heavenly Masters of the Wan Dao School, the handlers of the four Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, had already stepped into the Deity-Transformation Realm.

Four Great Celestial Masters, four Great Divinity Transformations!

The method to transform divinity had been acquired three years prior; although it required time to adapt and innovate, that was solely for Xu Yang, not a strict necessity for others.

Because this Taoist Master, a single era of Taoism personified, the absolute core of the Wan Dao School, the pillar that props up the heavens, could not afford any lapse. Thus, when the cultivation technique was created, the initial experimenters could only be his Nascent Soul disciples.

As the outstanding ones among them, the Four Great Celestial Masters, deservedly took the lead.

With the Ancestor Master’s Altar for protection, even if they failed to break through, they had no worries for their lives.

Thus, these four Celestial Masters achieved Divinity Transformation even faster than Xu Yang, having succeeded a year earlier.

While they had broken through and achieved Divinity Transformation, in the presence of Xu Yang, their master and mentor, they remained as respectful as ever, unchanged in their demeanor.

Three thousand years passed, and within the Scholar’s Palace of the Wan Dao School, although there were various other Taoist traditions, such as the Palace of Longevity, the Pure Yang Palace, the Misty Cave, and so forth, in reality, they were all disciples and descendants of Xu Yang. Those who could have been his peers, like True Monarch Changrong and Phoenix Song Fairy, had long since ascended.

Therefore, his position as Taoist Master was well-deserved, and even if the Ancient Immortal Gods were to return, or all the Ancestor Taoist Masters re-emerged, none could shake his status, nor could they cause the Wan Dao School to fragment into various traditions once more.

Such are the fruits of teaching and governing the world for three thousand years!

“Ha!”

Xu Yang chuckled softly, helping the four to rise, then inquired, “How is the situation? ”

“It’s not looking good.”

“Taoist Master, please observe.”

Upon hearing this, the smiles of the four vanished instantly, leading Xu Yang to gaze high into the heavens.

Above the vast expanse of the heavens, amidst the clouds, a conspicuous dark scar was locked in between the four corners.

It was, indeed, the “Heaven Injury Demon Scar!”

Although the fall of the Red Star and the event of the Heaven Injury Demon Scar were orchestrated by Xu Yang himself, not all was feigned.

Two realms, space already converging, forming a black hole pathway.

Years ago, Xu Yang passed through this hole, drawing a strand of Demonic Qi for Divinity Transformation, giving rise to further developments such as his Yang God’s venture into the demonic world.

Now, more than a decade later, this spatial black hole has undergone changes, expanding and becoming harder to control, turning into a true Heaven Injury Demon Scar.

Seeing this, Xu Yang frowned as well: “It seems the merger of the two realms is unavoidable.”

The merging of two realms!

Years ago, when the spatial black hole expanded, Xu Yang had detected this trend.

With talk of three thousand worlds, like grains of sand in the Ganges, clearly demarcated, but given the right circumstances, they could merge.
