Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 421 Nine Cauldrons
The Azure Dragon soared and danced, drawing the Black Heavenly Dragon Divine Image to fly and ascend into the sky as well. The two dragons intertwined and quickly merged into a single black heavenly dragon, except that the dragon's eyes turned azure-gold.

The black dragon raised its head and roared, its azure-gold eyes shining with divine light, resonating with the boundless primal energy of heaven and earth...

Gao Wu had a sudden realization: after the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Curse was upgraded, it truly merged with his Martial Arts Divine Appearance, causing a qualitative change in the Heavenly Dragon Divine Appearance and establishing a resonance with heaven and earth.

This resonance was different from the resonance he comprehended in the Dharma Domain. It was as if the divine image of the nine dragons converging into one and heaven and earth seemed to merge into one. Then, the black heavenly dragon's body suddenly became incomparably huge and vast, filled with endless power...

Gao Wu, caught up in the moment, lost all sense of time, only to find that everything had ended in a daze.

Through the upgrade of the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra, he has fully mastered the divine mantra and understood the mysteries of the so-called 'Primordial Chaos' realm.

However, his understanding may not be entirely accurate; it is more accurate to refer to the Book of Immeasurable Merit.

Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra: Hunyuan.

Lifespan: 36,000 years.

Physical condition: 45.

Supernatural Power: Evergreen and Immortal...

Gao Wu read the page on the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Incantation twice in detail. The incantation did not provide a written explanation of the 'Primordial Chaos' realm.

He scanned the area with his consciousness and could sense the complex and profound energy contained within. This was actually very similar to his understanding; Hunyuan was a mysterious realm that was difficult to express in words.

To put it simply, the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra at the Primordial Chaos Realm is one with him. Whether it's martial arts divine form, source power, or various divine mantras, the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra can completely merge with it, becoming inseparable.

The Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra is his fundamental mantra, and it is closely related to all aspects of his life.

He condenses his acupoints with the blessing of the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra, and it is also a routine operation to improve the level of source power through the divine mantra.

The true enhancement of the Primordial Chaos Divine Incantation lies in its true fusion with the Martial God Form. This means that his Martial God Form also possesses the characteristics of the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Incantation, such as eternal youth, immortality, and endless vitality.

This means that his source energy is now almost inexhaustible, and as long as the divine incantation can still be activated, he can immediately restore his source energy.

The more significant change lies in the resonance between the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra and the heavens and earth, taking a step forward to the point where the Heavenly Dragon transforms into the heavens and earth, as if a world has been formed within his body.

In reality, the source energy core is shrunk to its limit, but the internal space becomes incredibly vast.

The Source Energy Core resonates with heaven and earth at all times, yet its internal operation is dominated by the Heavenly Dragon Divine Image, as if it were another world.

Qin Liuhe once said that the ninth level is the unity of heaven and man, where man and the world are inseparable, and one can freely control power.

Level 10 means that you can create your own world within your body and set your own rules for source energy.

Reaching this stage means becoming a true god!

Reaching the perfect state of the Taiyi Battle Body would allow him to substantially advance to the ninth level.

Even though he did not reach the state of oneness with heaven and man, he could passively enter the state of oneness with heaven and man through the Taiyi Battle Body.

Or, to put it another way, the perfected Taiyi Battle Body inherently represents the unity of heaven and man. It doesn't require advanced martial arts practitioners to cultivate it diligently.

For a martial artist with forty points of innate talent, achieving harmony between heaven and man through martial arts wouldn't be too difficult; it just requires time to accumulate.

The improvement of the Taiyi Battle Body allowed him to skip this process entirely.

The upgrade of the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Incantation allowed him to take another step forward, creating a world within his body through the divine incantation and martial arts divine image.

Essentially, it also originates from the primordial unity transformation of divine incantations. It's just that the fusion of divine incantations and martial arts divine imagery has propelled him to a further step in martial arts.

Gao Wu now knows what it is but not why it is, and in his view, the primordial world combining martial arts divine image and divine incantation is not a true level ten.

It can only be said that the divine incantation strengthened the Martial Arts Divine Image, allowing it to become a self-contained entity, converting source power through the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Incantation, without needing to borrow external source power.

This is certainly a huge step forward, but it is still not the same as a level ten deity.

Gao Wu couldn't quite put his finger on what was different, but based on his understanding of the two divine avatars, he felt there must be a significant gap between them.

The most direct impact of this change is that the source power level has tripled, and the source power value should reach ten million.

After all, the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Curse can enhance source power, and the black heavenly dragon forms its own world, essentially turning the source power acupoints into a sea of ​​source power.

Ten million source energy points sounds exaggerated, but he could reach that number during his previous extreme bursts.

Progress in one's source of power is the most direct and easiest to quantify.

Gods face immense limitations once they leave their divine realm. Whether in the real world or a secret realm, Gao Wu is confident that with his millions of source energies, he can crush any divine avatar.

Looking at lifespan, it suddenly increased to 36,000 years, which is much, much longer than the recorded history of human civilization.

Gao Wu cannot yet comprehend the true meaning of lifespan. After all, his body is only twenty years old.

By the standards of an average person's lifespan, this is the golden peak of life.

Energetic, curious about the world, with an excellent memory, and in the most active stage of their thinking.

It's no exaggeration to say that even an average 20-year-old could handle three or four rounds a day.

Even if Gao Wu awakens his innate wisdom, he still finds it hard to imagine what it would be like for a person to live for tens of thousands of years.

For him, such a long lifespan was more of a number, a source of immense energy.

The Primordial Chaos Realm further advanced the divine spells and supernatural powers, from Everlasting Immortality to Everlasting Immortality.

According to Gao Wu's understanding, "immortal" or "undying" is also a metaphor, an expression of a powerful life state.

Thirty-six thousand years old would be considered immortal for an ordinary person. Moreover, such immortality would allow one to maintain peak condition indefinitely.

He will only age and die rapidly when his lifespan comes to an end. This is also the power of the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Curse.

In summary, Gao Wu believes that the most important aspect of upgrading the Divine Spell is reaching the Primordial Chaos Realm. Only when the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Spell is fully integrated with him can all its unique characteristics and abilities be fully unleashed.

Gao Wu felt that he had become much stronger, and his confidence had also increased dramatically.

The sacred realm of the Epang Palace shouldn't be too difficult to reach!
If Qin were to bestow another imperial decree upon Yang Shen, taking over the Epang Palace divine realm would be just around the corner.

Gao Wu got off the bed and saw Song Mingyue sitting quietly with her eyes closed. Her aura was deep and calm, and although she appeared unchanged on the surface, her vitality had obviously increased.

After all, it was the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Incantation of the Primordial Chaos Realm. Song Mingyue only shared a portion of the profound power of the divine incantation through resonance, but it was enough to greatly enhance her physique.

Despite Song Mingyue being an eighth-level Martial Saint, her physique is at most thirty points. This is only because she has been constantly benefiting from being by his side, has the Ice Dragon Armor, and consumes dragon blood every day.

The human body is too fragile; acquired cultivation can only continuously enhance spiritual power and raise the level of source power.

Even someone as strong as Hai Wuji couldn't possibly reach a physique of thirty points. Wei Qiankun is said to specialize in the Divine Power Scripture, so his physique should be very strong. Gao Wu hasn't seen him, but he can't speculate on it out of thin air.

Since Xiao Song benefited this time, she was allowed to consume large amounts of dragon blood to further enhance her physical strength.

Before long, Xiao Song will be able to overwhelm all level eights with his immense physical advantage. The Federation has temporarily pacified the area, but there are too many believers here, and who knows when a level eight will emerge. Or perhaps it will attract a demon god's clone.

Although level eight cultivation is not very useful, with proper cultivation, it can still suppress the Federation and maintain world order.

Since Gao Wu reached the pinnacle of the Taiyi Battle Body, he no longer thinks much of the eighth level.

Of course, he doesn't judge people by their martial arts cultivation level.

Even if Lao Hai is only at level eight, he will always be his master. Xiao Song's cultivation is mediocre, but he is still his best friend.

As for the others, they were all talking about feelings. What's the point of discussing martial arts cultivation...?

As Song Mingyue sensed something, she opened her eyes and saw Gao Wu with a smug smile on his face. A questioning look appeared in her bright eyes.

"It's nothing, haha, I'm very pleased to see that your cultivation has improved again," Gao Wu said in a mature and old-fashioned manner.

Song Mingyue knew Gao Wu was joking, so she glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Gao Wu leaned close to Song Mingyue's ear and whispered, "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me. I can give you personal guidance..."

As he spoke, he blew a warm breath into Song Mingyue's ear, his smile becoming somewhat wanton.

Song Mingyue said calmly, "Lord Qin is right next door. What do you want to do?"

"Hehe, it's not lively without talking and laughing."

Gao Wu was just joking. How could he settle down before accomplishing his great mission? He was a remarkable man determined to save the world; how could he be preoccupied with personal matters…

While there was still time, Gao Wu instructed Song Mingyue to drink dragon blood voraciously.

This time, Song Mingyue's physique improved, and she almost refined the dragon crystal, greatly enhancing her resistance to dragon blood.

Gao Wu doesn't even need to transform the source of life force; he can resolve the side effects of the dragon blood simply by using the Azure Dragon Divine Qi Mantra to activate life force.

He's progressing too fast; the dragon blood has almost no effect on him. He'd rather drink cola than dragon blood; at least it tastes better.

At noon, Qin Liuhe returned to the valley with Gao Wu and Song Mingyue.

Upon entering the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls, Gao Wu was eager to try and force his way through. After all, he could now even defeat a divine avatar. Looking at the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls, he didn't find it particularly impressive.

Qin Liuhe glanced at Gao Wu and said calmly, "The Hall of Ten Thousand Souls is the claw of the Chaos Dragon King. Even though you are strong now, you cannot force your way through."

"That powerful?!" Gao Wu wasn't skeptical; he was looking for a strong opponent to test his own strength.

But then he thought better of it and gave up. Time was precious, and he didn't need to waste it at the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.

Qin Liuhe put Gao Wu and Song Mingyue into the Xuanlong Ring. By the time the two were released, they had already arrived deep within the divine realm of the Epang Palace.

On a huge platform, nine giant four-legged cauldrons are placed side by side.

The giant cauldron is a hundred meters tall, and its body is covered with complex bronze patterns. If you look closely, the patterns seem to depict mountains, rivers, lakes, and various mythical beasts and birds.

Therefore, they are described as exotic beasts and mythical birds, because Gao Wu saw dragons and phoenixes on them, creatures from mythology and legend. Even if real dragons and phoenixes exist in another world, they don't exist in the real world.

The Epang Palace Divine Realm is just a name similar to the Epang Palace; in reality, it is an exceptionally powerful divine realm.

The Chaos Dragon King is likely an even more powerful deity than the White Eagle King.

In short, everything here seems to have a connection to a certain period in history. But it's only a resemblance. There may be some connection, but they are by no means equivalent.

Gao Wu has a clear understanding of this.

Nine giant cauldrons, each a hundred meters tall, stand in a row, creating a magnificent and imposing sight, imbued with a sense of historical weight and history.

Qin Liuhe took out the numerous level-nine divine artifacts he had captured from the Xuanlong Ring and said to Gao Wu, "These nine cauldrons are formed by gathering the Qi from the nine directions of the Divine Realm, symbolizing supreme authority."

"By offering sacrifices with divine artifacts and activating the Qi of the Nine Cauldrons, I can enter a deeper divine realm."

Qin Liuhe solemnly said, "I don't know what the divine realm inside is like. It might be a vast otherworld, or it might be the divine kingdom of some deity, or it might be a real universe plane among countless dimensional universes."

"Whatever it is, the Qi of the Nine Cauldrons exists deep within the Divine Realm. If we obtain the Qi of the Nine Cauldrons, we can subdue the Nine Cauldrons."

Gao Wu frowned slightly. Was Old Qin really going to go in with him? Moreover, Old Qin had previously said that the Tai'a Sword could restrain the Nine Cauldrons, so why had he changed his mind now?
Qin Liuhe understood Gao Wu's doubts and explained, "The Tai'a Sword possesses special divine power, and it is said to be able to suppress the Qi of the Nine Cauldrons. As for the more specifics, I don't know either. You'll have to try it yourself."

"Lord Qin, please don't take the risk," Gao Wu suggested. "I'll go in and check the situation first."

He was confident in his powerful Taiyi Battle Body, believing he could stand firm in any world opened up by the Nine Cauldrons.

It's hard to say what will happen if Lao Qin goes in.

Qin Liuhe shook his head: "The Nine Cauldrons gather the Qi from the nine directions, originally intended to suppress the Chaos Dragon King."

"The Chaos Dragon King was born from chaos and travels throughout the multiverse. Its chaotic energy has the ability to imitate and replicate, and it can even directly devour a world."

"With the aura of the Nine Cauldrons and the Chaos Dragon King mixed together, who knows what the world inside the Nine Cauldrons will become. Having one more person explore will save a lot of time."

Song Mingyue said, "Lord Qin, I'll go in and explore too."

"Your cultivation is too weak. The Nine Cauldrons Divine Realm is not an illusion. If something happens to you, it will only cause more trouble."

Qin Liuhe knew that Song Mingyue had already advanced to the Martial Saint level, but even so, venturing deep into the Nine Cauldrons Divine Realm was too dangerous.

If something happens to Song Mingyue, Gao Wu will definitely resent him. Their growing estrangement will be extremely detrimental to their grand plan.

Song Mingyue didn't force the issue. She wanted to help, but she wouldn't overstep her bounds. Compared to Gao Wu and Qin Liuhe, she was indeed too weak.

The nine level-nine divine artifacts captured, including the Pantheon, the Shield of the Gods, the Spear of the Gods, and the Halberd of the Sea Emperor, were all placed into the Nine Cauldrons by Qin Liuhe.

The Sword of Destiny was left behind by Gao Wu, but Qin Liuhe also had several level-nine divine artifacts, which would make up the required number.

The Nine Cauldrons swallowed the level-nine divine artifact, and nine pillars of light—red, orange, green, blue, white, gold, cyan, and black—rose above the giant cauldrons.

The nine-colored pillars of light converged in the sky, forming a giant light gate.

Qin Liuhe looked at Gao Wu: "Go."

Gao Wu looked at the dazzling circular light gate. He couldn't see what was inside from the outside, but he could sense that the aura inside was as deep as the sea.

His immense power seemed insignificant in the face of that vast, ocean-like aura, which made him feel immense pressure.

The unknown is always the most terrifying.

Gao Wu steadied himself and flashed into the light gate formed by the nine-colored halo.

In the blink of an eye, Gao Wu's figure vanished without a trace...
