Start from a baby to become a Taoist

Chapter 545 Lord of Reincarnation
Having said that, Xu Ran shouted decisively, his eyes blazing as he stared directly at the Ancient Tree of Light, "Open the furnace!"

"good!"

The Ancient Tree of Light let out a sigh of praise, as if it had waited for countless years for this very moment.

"as you wish!"

boom!
Its tree trunk, composed entirely of light, suddenly contracted inward, and all its branches and leaves, all its light, transformed into an extremely dazzling rune, imprinted in the void.

The runes were ancient and mysterious, resembling the character "启" (qi).

The moment the runes lit up, the entire "graveyard" erupted in chaos!

The giant claw that had been chasing them stopped in mid-air, then slowly retracted into the enormous black hole nest. Immediately afterward, the broken Heaven-Reaching Divine Sword, the collapsed golden temple, the wreckage of warships larger than stars… all the remains of civilizations seemed to come alive at that moment!
They began to disintegrate and collapse, transforming into the purest, multicolored torrent of Dao principles!
The supreme sword intent of the Sword Dao civilization! The sacred laws of the Divine Dao civilization! The origin rules of the Technological Civilization! The divination secrets of the Xuan Tian civilization... Billions of different paths and different laws, at this moment, transformed into a raging chaotic ocean, capable of tearing everything apart!

And the Pioneer, along with Xu Ran and the others, were right in the middle of this ocean!

"My lord!" Zhenshan and the others were horrified. Even a wisp of this power was enough to annihilate them!

"Reincarnation Domain, open!"

Xu Ran let out a long roar, holding nothing back any longer.

The Dharma image of the Reincarnation Dao Lord behind him expanded infinitely at this moment, transforming into a towering giant. The Möbius strip-like Reincarnation Dao Seal transformed into an enormous gray-white vortex, enveloping the entire Pioneer!

boom! boom! boom!
The raging torrent of myriad paths, as if having found an outlet, frantically washed over Xu Ran's Reincarnation Domain!
His Dao Domain Barrier was covered with spiderweb-like cracks the moment it made contact, as if it would shatter at any moment.

Xu Ran's Dao Lord Dharma Form let out a groan of unbearable strain, and grayish-white Dao blood flowed from its seven orifices!

The first wave of impact alone severely injured this newly promoted Dao Lord!

"Not enough! Not enough!"

Xu Ran's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like a madman.

"My cycle of reincarnation will not be a single lifetime, but an entire era! It will not devour one person or one path, but all the laws of the heavens!"

"Absorbing the 'Absolute Order' allowed me to complete my logic. Absorbing the 'Origin of Divination' allowed me to see the possibility!"

"Now, let these myriad torrents fill my flesh and blood, and forge my foundation!"

"Reincarnation, Devouring the Heavens!"

Instead of defending himself, he proactively opened his Dao Domain, guiding the raging torrents of Dao principles into his Reincarnation Dao Seal!
This is an absolutely insane act!
Like a mortal trying to swallow an entire ocean!

"what--"

Xu Ran let out a painful roar as his Dao Lord Dharma Form was instantly swelled up by countless different Dao Laws. Golden holy light, purple destructive lightning, cyan life aura, black annihilation law... countless forces clashed wildly within his body, trying to tear him apart completely!

His cycle of reincarnation is teetering on the brink of collapse!

"Hold fast to your true self! With reincarnation as the axis and all paths as the wheel, turn!"

Xu Ran's soul sat cross-legged in the center of his sea of ​​consciousness, desperately maintaining the last shred of clarity.

He endured the excruciating pain of his soul being torn apart and began to process his understanding of reincarnation.

"The sharpness of the sword enters my cycle of reincarnation, becoming the power to 'kill'!"

"The solemnity of the divine path enters my cycle of reincarnation, becoming the law of 'order'!"

"The domineering power of the demonic path enters my cycle of reincarnation, becoming the root of 'annihilation'!"

"The mysteries of divination enter my cycle of reincarnation, becoming the thread of 'fortune'!"

……

He actually intended to use his own path of reincarnation as a furnace to forcibly refine these myriad great paths, extracting their essence and discarding their dross, transforming them into a part of his own path of reincarnation!

This is a crazy idea that has never been seen before and will never be seen again!

His Cycle Dao Domain's completeness, amidst collapse and reconstruction, began to fluctuate wildly at an unbelievable speed!
“轮回道域完整度：28.7%……27.5%……29.1%……26.3%……30.5%……”

Each throbbing signifies that his foundation is undergoing a devastating impact.

But each positive growth represents his cycle of reincarnation, transforming towards a more perfect, more inclusive, and more domineering direction!
Just then, the metal labyrinth composed of countless remnants of civilizations completely collapsed into a single point of light.

That point of light is the entrance to the "furnace core"!

"Come in, there's a variable."

The voice of the Ancient Tree of Light echoed in Xu Ran's mind, carrying a hint of guidance.

Despite the excruciating pain, Xu Ran, controlling the Samsara Dao Domain enveloped by the torrent of myriad paths, crashed headlong into that point of light like a giant, multicolored cocoon!

……

Time and space change, and the stars move.

When Xu Ran regained consciousness, he found himself in a strange space.

There are no stars, no sky or earth, only an endless, hazy void.

In the center of the void, countless enormous Dao Principle Crystals, radiating immortal brilliance, floated!
Each crystal represents the core essence of a civilization!
One crystal, entirely crimson gold, seemed to contain the cry of a golden crow; it was the "Great Sun True Path" of a certain fire-based civilization. Another crystal, pitch black as ink, emanated a chilling aura that could freeze the very soul; it was the "Taiyin Absolute Path" of a certain extremely cold world.

A crystal, crystal clear, with what seemed to be billions of sword lights being born and dying inside, that was the "Heaven-Reaching Sword Path" of a sword Path era!
This is the "hearth"!
This is the core of the Heavenly Principles' refining of the "Supreme Dao Fruit"!
The accumulation of countless eras and the essence of countless civilizations were now displayed before him without reservation!
This is an unimaginable treasure trove!

But at the same time, it is also an extremely dangerous place!
Because in the center of these Dao Principle Crystals, in the deepest darkness, a pair of huge, cold, blood-red eyes filled with absolute killing intent slowly opened.

Suppress the prison!

It did not disappear, but has always existed here as the guardian of this furnace core!
It sensed the intrusion of Xu Ran, this "foreign object," and its terrifying killing intent, enough to crush a Dao Lord, locked onto Xu Ran once again.

But this time, Xu Ran's face no longer showed the previous seriousness.

He looked at the countless Dao Principle Crystals around him, feeling the immense power they contained that he could use, and then looked at the Prison Suppression, which was poised to unleash its power. A crazy yet confident smile slowly appeared on his lips.

"The furnace is now open, all paths are the fuel, and the prison is the fire..."

"So……"

Xu Ran slowly stretched out his hand and aimed it at the crimson gold crystal containing the "Great Sun True Path".

"Let me see if it's your fire that can burn me to ashes..."

"It is still my 'Reincarnation' that can devour all these myriad furnace flames!"

"Reincarnation, begin!"

The Reincarnation Seal behind him, after its initial tempering by the torrent of ten thousand streams, though still damaged, now bore traces of strange, multicolored patterns. As it spun, the suction force it emitted was more than ten times stronger than before!
The "Great Sun True Path" crystal trembled violently, and strands of the purest and most refined essence of the flame Dao was forcibly extracted and poured into Xu Ran's body!

boom!
Xu Ran's body instantly transformed into a giant fireball, burning fiercely!
But this time, instead of screaming in pain, he let out a long, exhilarating roar!

His Reincarnation Dao Lord Dharma Form, instead of melting under the burning of the Great Sun True Fire, became even more solid and dazzling! On it, the laws belonging to "fire" and "yang" were being rapidly completed!
"Completeness of the Reincarnation Dao Domain: 31.2%...31.5%...31.9%..."

Our strength is increasing rapidly!
The thrill of dancing on the edge of a knife and seizing power from destruction made every cell in Xu Ran's body cheer and tremble!

"Roar!"

The Prison Guard seemed utterly enraged by Xu Ran's "theft." It waited no longer; its terrifying giant claw, forged from countless divine metals and carrying the power to suppress an era, emerged from the darkness and slammed down upon Xu Ran!
This claw strike sealed off time and space, obliterated the laws of nature, and was a sure-kill blow!
However, faced with this devastating attack, Xu Ran did not retreat but advanced!

"Well done!"

He stomped his foot and transformed into a streak of gray-white light, heading straight for the giant claw!
Behind him, aboard the Pioneer, Zhenshan and the others were dumbfounded and completely lost their composure.

How could someone at the first level of the Dao Lord realm possibly withstand a fierce beast that suppresses an era?

What audacity! What madness!
"Today, I will use you as a whetstone to forge the foundation of my supreme path!"

"Reincarnation Fist!"

Xu Ran threw a punch, but there was no earth-shattering light effect, only an extreme gray-white.

Life with the left fist, death with the right fist.

Life and death formed a subtle cycle between his fists.

This punch wasn't about power, but about his "Tao"!
boom! ! !
The tiny fist collided violently with the colossal claw that blotted out the sky!
It wasn't as overwhelming as I had imagined.

A strange wave spread outwards from the point of impact in all directions.

The "Suppressing Kill" law on the Prison Giant Claw, which was capable of obliterating everything, began an incredible "reversal" the moment it came into contact with the "Reincarnation" power on Xu Ran's fist!
That domineering and incomparable destructive power seemed to be rewound, reversing from "destruction" to "formation," and then from "formation" to the most primitive law runes. In the end, a portion of it was forcibly... devoured by Xu Ran's Samsara Fist!

Use the enemy's spear to forge our own shield!
Click!

Xu Ran's body flew backward, smashing several Dao Principle crystals along the way. He spat out blood, and even his Dao Lord Dharma Image dimmed a bit.

But his eyes shone with an unprecedented light!
He was injured, but he didn't die!

With his Dao Lord level 1 cultivation, he withstood the attack of the Prison Suppressor! Moreover, he even managed to seize a trace of the "Suppressing Kill" Law's origin from the attack and integrate it into his own Dao!
"Completeness of the Reincarnation Dao Domain: 32.1%!"

"Hahaha...Again!"

Xu Ran wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his fighting spirit increasing rather than decreasing. He transformed into a streak of light once again and rushed towards another crystal containing the "Taiyin Absolute Dao"!

He had to absorb the origins of all paths while fighting against the Prison Suppressor!

In this training ground, tailor-made for him and the most luxurious yet most dangerous in all the heavens and myriad realms, he begins his true... path to becoming a Dao Lord!
On the Pioneer, Cang Shi watched the figure frantically traversing, fighting, and growing stronger amidst countless rays of light and the colossal claw of destruction. Tears of excitement welled up in his cloudy old eyes.

He seemed to see a brand new era, even more glorious than the Divine Court, rising in the hands of this young Dao Lord.

That was neither an escape nor a desperate struggle for survival.

Instead, it is a path of hegemony that feeds on all paths, fuels the fire of taboos, treads on the corpses of all civilizations, and defies the laws of nature!
Inside the furnace, the battle raged on.

Outside the furnace core, the character "启" (Qi), formed from the ancient tree of light, floated silently, as if watching everything in vain.

After an unknown amount of time, a distant, gratified sigh echoed in the void.

"The key... has been put into the furnace."

"Whether you forge or crumble next depends on your own destiny, Lord of Reincarnation..."
