Getting closer, you can feel the momentum of a thousand horses galloping, and your blood and energy surge. Ordinary people can't get close at all.

If he hadn't been physically strong, even the sound of thunder would have been enough to shatter his internal organs.

"This is the true essence of the Immortal Pool!"

Golden liquid continuously flowed from that celestial pool, merging into the large lake outside, causing the spiritual energy to surge and the celestial aura to permeate the air.

However, just as Li Dao approached, an intense longing suddenly surged within him.

Li Dao clutched his heart, and his skin uncontrollably radiated a divine light.

The soul trembled, and golden lotuses bloomed on the body.

Li Dao felt a call emanating from the divine lotus before him, and couldn't help but slowly walk forward.

Chapter 290 The Cicada Sheds Its Shell, the Profound Mystery of the Dao Fruit

hum!

Just as he reached out his hand, the barrier in front of him slowly crumbled, and the deafening thunder gradually subsided.

When Li Dao touched the roots of the divine lotus, a golden lotus slowly emerged from his body.

This is a product left behind after the last time the flesh and blood seed blossomed, reshaping his body.

The golden lotus mark on his forehead emitted a faint golden light, merging with the lotus that shot out from his body.

The two merged and slowly floated towards the Tribulation Lotus, landing steadily in the divine pool beneath its roots.

In an instant, roots sprouted from beneath the golden lotus and took deep root in the celestial pool.

The tribulation-transcending divine lotus above its head cascaded down with countless waterfalls of lightning, pouring onto the flower and slowly tempering it.

Amidst the destruction of thunder and the nourishment of the immortal pool, a small figure faintly appears deep within the Dao Flower.

It was a figure entirely in gold, identical to Li Dao, but the Dao aura emanating from it was exceptionally strange, originating from the same source as the Dao, almost like the Dao itself.

Li Dao looked at the sudden change before him, feeling somewhat dazed. He looked at the golden lotus that had fallen into the center of the immortal pool and couldn't understand what was going on.

"Has my Dao Fruit been stolen?"

It's no wonder he was so puzzled. From the initial enlightenment on a rainy night, when he planted the seed of Dao in flesh and blood, to the later sprouting of the seed, and then to the flowering of the seed in the Immortal Cleansing Pool, which reshaped his Dao body.

That golden lotus was his Dao fruit, which had never left him, but now it had fallen into the immortal pool.

And that little figure in the center of the golden lotus, could it be the incarnation of the Dao Fruit?

This reminded him of a certain extraordinary being in later generations who transformed his Dao fruit into human form, wandering the mortal world to experience its complexities and thus enhance his cultivation.

However, he quickly shook his head, saying that although the two had similarities, they were different in nature.

That person used heaven-defying strength to forcibly transform their Dao Fruit into human form and then exile them.

But it seems as if his own Dao fruit has been kidnapped!

Thinking of this, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he cursed inwardly.

Looking at the little golden figure that was becoming more and more solid in the center of the fairy pool, I wondered whether I should take it back.

Just as he was struggling with this dilemma, an ancient, heavenly voice rang in his mind.

"Having endured millions of years of tribulations, one day all is lost."

"Today we have witnessed the workings of fate and glimpsed a glimmer of hope."

The voice was ancient and profound, carrying an immense sense of history.

Li Dao was taken aback and was about to turn his head to find the source of the sound.

However, the next moment, Li Dao felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, followed by a feeling of weightlessness that swept over his entire body.

As soon as he set foot on solid ground, he was shocked to find that he had somehow ended up in a mysterious space.

This place is like a fairyland, with cranes soaring and an ethereal atmosphere.

But Li Dao's gaze was firmly drawn to a small tree in front of him, about the height of a person.

Its branches are thick and strong, resembling both a lotus and a tree, and it exudes a strong thunderous power. It is simply a miniature version of the Tribulation-Transcending Divine Lotus outside.

However, the spirituality it contained was becoming increasingly abundant, and Li Dao felt a sense of exploration emanating from it.

"This place is the Divine Lotus Space that I created. You are the first living being to enter this place in millions of years."

"I am a consciousness born from the Tribulation Lotus. Welcome, little one."

Li Dao was startled. The consciousness of the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus meant that the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus was indeed about to take form after being struck by lightning.

Looking at the divine lotus before him, Li Dao's eyes changed involuntarily; this was truly too heaven-defying.

Millions of years of continuous lightning tempering—not every living being can withstand that.

The Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus seemed to have seen through Li Dao's thoughts, chuckled softly, and then said in a low voice:

"With the world shattered and the Dao incomplete, even after millions of eons, it is still difficult to shed the old body."

"At this point, it seems that for the divine medicine to achieve enlightenment, it must defy the heavens."

Li Dao suddenly realized that this Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus had lived for countless years, and the accumulated medicinal properties had transformed it from a lotus into a divine tree, making it extremely difficult for it to take human form.

In later generations, there was indeed a Green Emperor who transformed into human form, but the two were not of the same level in terms of origin, so the difficulty of transformation was naturally different.

"What brings you here?"

How can I help you?

Li Dao asked directly, "The other party pulled me into the Divine Lotus Space. I don't believe it's just because they're bored and want to chat with someone."

"Don't be nervous. I've come to you not to harm you."

Li Dao listened to its words, his vigilance undiminished, and quietly watched it.

The Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus sighed and explained the purpose of her visit.

"I have a premonition that at some point in the future, the heavens and the earth will collapse, and I don't have much time left."

"If I cannot embark on the path to enlightenment before the world collapses, my end is already very clear."

His tone carried a hint of urgency, as well as an obsession with cultivating human form.

"But after undergoing tribulations for millions of years, the method of getting rid of the old body has not diminished; instead, the body has undergone a transformation."

"Originally a lotus flower, it had accumulated enough medicinal essence and, driven by instinct, it drew upon a lightning tribulation to transform into human form, but unfortunately, it happened at the moment when heaven and earth collapsed."

"The tribulations continue, but the heavens and earth are flawed, and the chance of transformation is slim."

"This time, we are in even greater danger."

Li Dao couldn't help but feel sorry for the other party. If he could take human form, he would surely be another unparalleled genius.

Unfortunately, it was born at the wrong time, just in time for the shattering of heaven and earth, when the laws of nature changed, causing it to lose this opportunity.

"So, senior called me here to help you transform into human form?"

"This junior is of meager strength and I am afraid I am unable to help you."

The Divine Lotus of Tribulation chuckled lightly and said nonchalantly:

"It's not that I'm asking you to help me, but it's not much different anyway."

"I wish to borrow your Dao to manifest in form."

Li Dao frowned, now certain that his Dao Fruit had been stolen. Just as he was about to ask, the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus spoke first:

"No need to worry, this matter will not harm you, and it will actually be a tremendous opportunity."

Then, the Divine Lotus of Tribulation slowly revealed its thoughts.

"It is no longer possible for me to take human form in this world in my original form. I thought I would continue to struggle like this until the day of my death."

"Until I met you, I finally saw a glimmer of hope."

“Using the physical body as soil to cultivate the supreme fruit of the Way, without seeking externally, aiming to explore within oneself, this path is truly extraordinary.”

"More importantly, the Dao Fruit has already been formed!"

The Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus spoke with a hint of approval, clearly showing great interest in the path Li Dao had chosen.

"Your Dao Fruit has shown me the opportunity to take human form. I do not seek the heavens and earth, but only myself. Such a Dao Fruit will not be affected even if the heavens and earth collapse."

"Therefore, I wish to relinquish the medicinal properties accumulated over millions of years and transform them into a primordial spiritual seed, to take shape together with your Dao Fruit."

Listening to this, Li Dao understood the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus's plan, and a flash of inspiration struck him, making him think of the Golden Cicada Shedding its Shell.

By taking form from his Dao Fruit, he could evade the scrutiny of the laws of heaven and earth, and thus understood the idea behind the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus.

However, he didn't respond immediately, but instead started to think about it in his mind.

"If the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus wishes to borrow the Dao Fruit to take human form, it will surely be able to nourish its own Dao Fruit, making the Dao Fruit grow faster. It would not be a bad opportunity."

Just as he was pondering, the voice of the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus rang out.

"If you agree, little one, then the accumulation of millions of years will be activated, turning into firewood to help your Dao Fruit grow."

The Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus said quietly, "If we decide to take the path of rebirth through the Dao Fruit, then we really cannot waste the accumulation of millions of years."

It can only be transformed into nutrients for the growth of the Dao Fruit.

Upon hearing the words of the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus, Li Dao was overjoyed. If that were true, his Dao Fruit would surely advance rapidly.

It's possible that while one is still lingering in the realm of humanity, one's Dao fruit has already stepped into the realm of immortality.

At that time, as long as you use the Dao Fruit, you will be able to obtain the combat power of the Immortal Dao Realm!

Although this is only in the realm of dreams, it may not be impossible to achieve.

Chapter 291 Heavenly Thunder Cleansing the Body

After thinking for a while, Li Dao nodded in agreement.

Judging from the current situation, if what the Tribulation-Crossing Divine Lotus said is true, it would be a great opportunity for me.

When the Tribulation-Transcending Divine Lotus saw Li Dao nod, the weight that had been hanging over her heart was lifted.

There was indeed something being concealed during the previous conversation.
