Perfect World: The First Dao Body in the Chaotic Era!

The sacred forest still radiates holy light, but the crimson immortal gate overhead is gone, and the ongoing holy ritual has ceased.

"This ordeal has made me realize the importance of the physical body; such a holy sacrifice is not enough!"

"I will refine my physical body into an unparalleled treasure ship!"

Chapter 388 Refining Oneself

Witnessing the loss of the primordial spirits of those dozen or so people in the unknown place was very enlightening for Li Dao.

Once again, the sacred tree of the surrounding land is drawn, and the path of the sacred ceremony begins anew.

The next moment, the divine sound of the Great Dao roared and divine patterns intertwined, slashing down from the void and striking his physical body heavily. His realm instantly reverted to the early stage of True God.

If it weren't for his physique far surpassing that of a True God, his cultivation level would probably have fallen back to the Divine Fire Realm.

This is the sacred ritual; if one is not careful, one will suffer such a calamity.

Li Dao was not discouraged at all. Instead, he regarded it as a kind of tempering. Being cut off from his cultivation meant that he had not done it perfectly.

He began to circulate his magic power, which, combined with the flames emitted by the sacred wood, set his entire body ablaze.

Instead of using a Dao artifact to shield himself from the calamity, he began to hone himself as a Dao artifact.

Just as Li Daosheng was undergoing his transformation, outside the forbidden area, many celestial beings continued their work, and a series of bewitching Daoist chants kept entering Li Daosheng's ears.

Even with the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top suppressing it, it was still somewhat unable to withstand the attack. At this critical moment, it was already difficult to defend itself.

"You want me dead so badly? Then come at me together!"

Li Dao gritted his teeth and immediately withdrew his defenses, but in an instant, the demonic sound pierced his ears, and his mind was instantly overwhelmed.

boom!

And above the nine heavens, a bolt of lightning struck down. It was not a tribulation lightning, but it was far more terrifying than a tribulation lightning. It was the law and Dao traces falling due to the holy sacrifice.

Intense pain instantly swept through his body, and Li Dao snapped back to his senses, coughing up blood as if struck by lightning.

The lightning struck his chest directly, almost piercing through it. The divine light there dimmed rapidly, and his cultivation level plummeted once again.

The Dao veins on his chest were rapidly fading, and Li Dao felt a sense of powerlessness, as if he were returning to being an ordinary mortal.

"This demonic sound is really powerful! It almost completely destroyed the purification process!"

Quickly calm your mind, keep your spirit clear, and continue to use the sacred wood to refine yourself.

Li Dao fought against the strange energy in his chest with all his might, and finally restored its divine light, preventing it from deteriorating further.

Although the struggle was extremely arduous, it also brought great benefits, further refining the cultivation of the Dao and making the foundation of the Dao more solid.

Li Dao began to refine his own body as a Dao artifact, an extremely risky and daring process.

Externally, demonic sounds disturbed his mind; internally, the unpredictability of the sacred ritual made the tempering process full of hardships.

Next, the ancient cave where Li Dao was located became sacred yet fraught with danger.

Demonic sounds intertwined with holy light, and lightning bolts or Dao runes struck down from the sky from time to time.

Li Dao slowly made his way forward amidst dire straits; the process of this sacred ritual was fraught with unpredictability.

Usually, one moment the mind is shaken by the demonic sound, and the next moment the body is struck hard. Lightning transformed from laws and runes of the Great Dao fall down to cut off his cultivation level.

In the most dangerous instance, Li Dao's entire cultivation was reduced to ashes. The process of falling from a god who controlled the universe to a mortal almost caused him to go berserk.

However, they ultimately persevered thanks to their unwavering will.

After experiencing this more than ten times, Li Dao was able to remain unmoved by external things, and his path of holy sacrifice was completely on the right track.

Li Dao offered himself up as a sacrifice.

His physical body has been refined no less than ten times, from top to bottom and inside to outside, and his cultivation has disappeared and reappeared many times.

During this process, the gods outside the forbidden area had no peace for a moment, and the demonic sounds never ceased.

boom!

Within this strange balance, a crisp sound came from within Li Dao's body that day, as if something had been shattered, and all constraints were gone.

His aura suddenly changed, thus entering the strange realm of the Holy Sacrifice.

The next moment, his blood and qi surged exponentially, his cultivation level rapidly increased, and his physical body radiated a divine light, becoming many times stronger.

After undergoing no less than ten rounds of refinement, Li Daoyi's cultivation level did not experience a sharp drop even after entering the Saintly Sacrifice.

With a slight raise of his hand, the void trembled, as if he could manipulate the universe.

"Is this what it feels like to be a god?"

It can reach for the moon in the heavens and destroy the underworld in the netherworld; it is omnipotent.

In a trance, his spirit wandered through the vast emptiness, sitting cross-legged atop a great star, evolving the Great Dao.

Boom!

A warning bell rang in Li Dao's mind, and he quickly regained his composure and calmed himself down.

"I almost got lost. The aftereffects of the holy ritual are truly terrifying."

The ups and downs between mortals and gods are very effective in tempering one's cultivation and physique, but it is also easy to lose one's way.

Li Dao slowly opened his eyes, his platinum pupils radiating a chilling light.

Waaah...

The demonic voice that had accompanied him for dozens of days was still ringing in his ears, and a murderous intent suddenly rose in his eyes.

However, he did not immediately leave the seclusion, but quickly calmed down and began to consolidate his cultivation.

The initial entry into the Holy Sacrifice is the time when one's strength grows most rapidly, and also the best time to comprehend the Great Dao.

His internal energy and blood were still rapidly increasing. As he began to consolidate his cultivation, the rate of increase in his internal energy and blood not only did not decrease but increased, and strange Daoist sounds also emanated from all around.

With a clear and tranquil mind, I sat cross-legged in the ancient cave, as if trying to merge with the entire world.

In an instant, he transformed into rocks, grass, and trees, becoming a part of them.

Finally, it became the heavens, merging with the entire universe, like an unparalleled being looking down upon all living beings.

His eyes opened and closed instinctively, trying to capture the laws and patterns of heaven and earth. His blood and qi surged within him, and he felt like a giant furnace, with the surrounding temperature constantly rising.

As the blood-red portal disappeared, the ferocious beasts that slowly surrounded the ancient cave stopped in their tracks, sensing the intense heat emanating from within.

Li Dao carefully sensed the power flowing within his body, and after several days, he clearly realized that his cultivation level was slowly declining from its peak, falling directly back to the Divine Fire Realm.

This change was very sudden. In just a moment, his cultivation level plummeted, but after another day, it quickly returned to the level of a Celestial God.

The change is so obvious.

In the following days, Li Dao gradually figured out this pattern: from peak to trough, from weakness to strength, it was a continuous cycle.

As he continued to gain insights, this low point was constantly being raised, and now even if he suddenly fell to the bottom, he would still be at the True God Realm.

He felt a little more at ease. If his combat strength suddenly plummeted during a major battle, it would be extremely dangerous.

As he continued to refine his understanding of the Dao, the time he spent at the peak became longer and longer.

Once again, Li Dao's combat power returned to its peak. He slowly opened his eyes, the demonic sound still echoing in his ears, but his face remained expressionless.

He slowly rose to his feet, and a series of explosive sounds emanated from the void around him. A divine halo of black and white intertwined hung behind his head.

With flowing red hair, her platinum eyes instantly pierced through layers of void, revealing the six celestial beings in the distance.

A murderous glint flashed in his eyes, and the surrounding vegetation withered instantly, even the stone walls were covered in frost.

"I've kept you waiting for so long, it's time to send you on your way!"

With a soft whisper, she took a step forward, and her figure vanished from the spot without a trace in the void; she had disappeared into thin air.

Chapter 389 Emerging from Seclusion

In mid-air at the edge of the forbidden land.

The conch shell in Hun Tuo's hand was still being blown, and the Daoist sounds emanating from it caused the void to twist and distort.

The drum above everyone's heads never stopped beating during these several dozen days.

Several celestial beings took turns striking the drumhead, the sound of which resounded throughout the surrounding area, even drawing the attention of some slumbering beasts.

"Could Dao Yi be dead? Should we go in and take a look? The ferocious beasts surrounding the forbidden area have all dispersed." The celestial being of the Demon Sunflower Garden had a profound look in his eyes.

Even after such a long bombardment, Dao Yi should have gone mad by now.

"That kid is no simpleton. The longer we wear him down, the better our chances of killing him will be." A celestial being punched the drum.

With a deafening boom, the sound of drums shook the heavens, and the void twisted and distorted.

"Absolutely, absolutely! These days, every one of these prodigies has some means of self-preservation. If we don't force them to reveal their true nature, they're as slippery as eels and extremely difficult to kill!" another person chimed in.

"It's about time. Even a Void Dao expert would be possessed by demons after such a barrage of attacks, let alone someone who is currently in seclusion breaking through to a higher realm, even if they do nothing at all."

"We should go in and take a look."

At this moment, Hun Tuo also spoke up.

Several times, these gods wanted to go in, but Hun Tuo stopped them. The main reason was that Li Dao had killed the Sword Valley gods with a spear, which made him somewhat afraid.

I really don't want to take the risk unless I'm 100% sure, but now I feel it's time.

But the main concern is that if this continues, he feels that those big guys in the forbidden area are about to awaken.

If those guys were to awaken, even they would struggle to cope.

"Finally, I can go in. I've been so bored. I heard that the prodigies like Huang and Zhexian fought with the gods who stayed in the Cloud Realm and they all ran away."

"If we can catch one or two, that would be a great achievement."

The god of the underworld put away his magical weapon, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

The events that occurred in the Cloud Realm have already spread like wildfire. At this moment, many people are searching for the prodigy who has returned from the Land of Creation. If they weren't here to intercept Li Dao, they would have joined the hunt.

"Kill Dao Yi first, then capture Huang!" A deep killing intent also flashed in Hun Tuo's eyes.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a deafening Daoist voice resounded throughout the heavens.

"Who do you want to kill?"
