"Not enough!"
Li Dao let out a soft shout, and the only cave within his body, which was collapsing, was suddenly engulfed in blazing Dao flames.
boom!
The unique grotto-heaven exploded within his body, and the ripples from the explosion were spreading rapidly throughout his body.
"My path, the first realm—is the realm of cultivating the Dao!"
Duh!
This is the first sound of creation, and also the clarion call of the end of all things.
His dantian area seemed to collapse as if the sky had fallen, revealing a chaotic mist, a void where nothing existed, a deathly silence.
However, an extremely powerful field spread out from there, tearing the sky and earth apart, affecting time and space.
This is a void created after the cave was blown open, and also a place without the Dao!
However, deep within this chaotic void lies a floating, desolate Daoist land.
A hazy gray mist shrouded the Daoist land, and scattered points of light twinkled in the hazy sky. These were the array patterns that had been integrated into the cave, but now they were scattered like stars across the Daoist land.
Rumble!
The moment Li Dao opened up this land, strange phenomena appeared in the outside world. Ghosts and gods howled in the sky, and blood-red rain fell continuously. This was the weeping of the heavens.
In addition, the sky was filled with countless corpses of gods and demons, and the place where Li Dao stood was obscured by dense chaotic energy, so that even the geniuses of the imperial clan could not get close at all.
Li Dao sat cross-legged in the center of chaos. The unique grotto-heaven within his body shattered, and the fragments merged into his flesh and bones. In his dantian, a grayish bead floated, and within that bead, a path of Dao floated in the chaos.
Although the grayish bead was small, the divine power it emitted was extremely dazzling. The divine light broke through its body, dispelling the surrounding chaotic energy. It was so magnificent that its sacred aura swept outwards in all directions.
Boom boom boom!
The attack from the imperial clan's prodigy struck again, and Li Dao's physical body exploded, but it recovered in the next moment, while the bead in his dantian was rapidly expanding.
He was covered in blood and looked quite disheveled, but the aura emanating from Li Dao was growing stronger and stronger. His severed arm was growing back rapidly, and an aura different from the Dao of this world was spreading quickly.
Centered on the spot where he stood, a faint golden hue permeated the earth, slowly spreading outwards.
The aura emanating from it is different from the laws of heaven and earth in this world, yet they share the same origin.
"The place where I stand is my land of the Way."
Li Dao murmured softly. The attacks from those imperial geniuses were tempering his physique and helping him to open up a small world within his body.
boom!
In his dantian, the small, grayish bead had grown to the size of a millstone. And on the Dao soil within that small world, a golden lotus flower grew and stood in the center of the gray Dao soil, its golden light illuminating the surrounding area.
The golden lotus had only two petals: one golden petal exuding vitality, and the other black petal exuding death. The golden lotus took root in the gray Dao soil, absorbing the energy of life and death to nourish its bloom.
At the very moment the two petals bloomed, the deathly aura and vitality surrounding Li Dao transformed into gushing energy that flowed into his body, repairing his injuries.
Life and death are as they please, endlessly flowing; even death can be transformed into life to heal his injuries.
hum!
He radiated a dazzling divine light, his severed arm had been rebuilt, his injuries were completely healed, and his aura had reached the late stage of the Void Dao realm. Every move he made seemed to be wielding the Great Dao, creating faint ripples in the void space.
Li Dao's primordial spirit entered the small world within his body and landed on that Dao land. The Dao land was boundless, and the area illuminated by the golden lotus was only a small inch, with most of the area hidden in chaos.
Looking at the mysterious and extraordinary golden lotus, a look of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.
“Open up the divine universe within your body, create a supreme land of the Dao, plant your own Dao seed, and nurture your own Dao.”
"On the brink of life and death, one proves one's true self; through eternal reincarnation, one attains the supreme fruition."
He slowly extended a finger, and two Reincarnation Seals appeared in front of him. With a gentle push, the two Reincarnation Seals rotated and intertwined, constructing an illusory door that appeared beneath the Daoist land.
Silver light cascaded down, nourishing the golden lotus. The already dazzling golden lotus radiated an even more intense golden light after being nourished.
The light shone directly on the three thousand miles of the Daoist land, turning the dusty land into a golden landscape.
"The primordial spirit enters the body's inner divine realm, follows the way of heaven, and governs all things."
Li Dao's primordial spirit sat cross-legged on the golden lotus, ascended to the ninth heaven, and stood before the Gate of Reincarnation. With a thought, the three thousand miles of the Dao path underwent a new transformation.
Palaces rose from the ground, magnificent and sacred, bathed in golden light, like a fairyland. Although no living beings had yet been born in this small world, Li Dao sensed that the future was limitless.
"To establish the Dao, to construct the cycle of reincarnation, and to take the body as the Dao."
Looking at the golden land of Dao that was brimming with hope, Li Dao felt an unprecedented sense of peace, especially after his primordial spirit entered the small world. A mysterious feeling, seemingly present yet absent, welled up within him.
"I am the master of this world."
"I am the Tao!"
Chapter 451 Three Flowers Enter the Body and Open the Chaos
The moment Li Dao constructed his inner world, the heavens and earth trembled, and various auspicious signs appeared.
First, colorful celestial mist slowly spread out, followed by patches of celestial light scattering down. Above that celestial light, sacred sacrificial sounds rang out, and the first corpses of gods and demons that had appeared disappeared.
The next moment, another great star streaked across the sky, stirring the immortal spirits imprinted between heaven and earth, causing dragons to soar and phoenixes to dance, a sight that was too awe-inspiring.
On the path Li Dao stood on, golden divine lotuses of the Great Dao were blooming one by one, making the place where he stood look like a celestial abode.
Outside the Heavenly Tribulation, whether they were powerful figures from the Nine Heavens or from other realms, everyone who witnessed such an astonishing sight couldn't help but widen their eyes in disbelief.
"To create a world within one's own body—if there's even the slightest mistake, it will lead to utter destruction. What incredible audacity!" a cultivator murmured in amazement.
“Taking oneself as the source of the Dao, without seeking from Heaven and Earth, is similar to taking oneself as the seed.” The Nine Heavens expert’s eyes flashed as he estimated the possibility of success for this Dao.
However, he ultimately shook his head. Ordinary cultivators simply couldn't withstand the impact of the cave's explosion, let alone use the Kunpeng Treasure Technique to combine two completely different paths and create a small world.
On the ninth level, Li Dao slowly opened his eyes and felt an unprecedented power surging out of his body.
His body radiated a sacred light, and the Dao aura emanating from him was as if the Great Dao itself had descended. Although this feeling was faint, it struck the soul directly. His figure was ethereal, and his aura was completely absent. If one were not standing right in front of him, one would not be able to sense his presence at all.
He was completely integrated with the heavens and earth, and his figure could not be perceived unless seen with the naked eye.
"kill!"
The genius of the imperial clan roared, and divine spells flashed in all directions. They all made their move, wanting to kill Li Dao on the spot. The potential that Li Dao was showing at this moment was too amazing.
"I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of pressure you guys can put on me right now," Li Dao said, his eyes sparkling.
He blasted open the cave heaven and dispersed it into his body, creating a small world within him, planting his own Dao, and reshaping his foundation. Although it was not yet finely refined, he could already deeply feel its power.
laugh!
The great cauldron of the descendant of Wushang tore through the void and crashed towards Li Dao. The terrifying pressure was like a mountain crashing down, enough to shatter stars and submerge a region.
But when Li Dao faced the falling cauldron again, he remained calm and composed, his face showing no emotion. He slowly raised a finger.
"Nirvana Finger!"
His fingertips shrank into the illusory image of a Kunpeng, which constantly intertwined, the cycle of life and death turning into the annihilation of all things, and the Dao seal transformed into finger beams that shot out.
boom!
With a piercing roar, the finger beam pierced through the cauldron as if tearing a thin piece of paper. After shattering the cauldron, the finger beam also pierced through the body of Wu Shang's descendant.
That body, which was said to be invulnerable to all magic, shattered instantly under that single finger strike.
"Being invulnerable to all laws is also a kind of Dao, within which everything is annihilated." Li Dao murmured, but before he could make another move, the celestial phenomena suddenly changed, with countless immortal lights falling from the sky, and everything around him shattered like a mirror.
Li Dao's body gradually became illusory, and the bodies of the imperial clan prodigies in front of him exploded one after another.
Whoosh!
He saw a faint river flowing across his skin, and only then did he come to his senses.
With his current level of power, he was being rejected by the river of time. His body was slowly becoming illusory, and the terrifying immortal light above his head was also slowly fading away with him.
"A stunning newcomer, it's time for you to go back." The figure of Elder Deng slowly materialized in the distance. With a wave of his hand, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths beneath Li Dao disappeared, the cultivators from the foreign realm disappeared, and the powerful figures of the Nine Heavens also disappeared.
Only Li Dao and Elder Deng stood on a long river, with celestial light surging above their heads.
"Old Deng, you know everything?" Li Dao looked at the old man in front of him. Gone was the previous kindness; instead, there was an indescribable air of authority about him.
"The river of time has swirled, trapping many people's obsessions and confining many others to the cycle of time."
“I see in you the opportunity to end the regrets of the Immortal Ancient Era. Young man, believe in your path and believe in your choices.”
Old Deng didn't explain directly, but looked at Li Dao and said a few meaningful words, and then the two figures slowly faded into the distance.
Li Dao felt a sudden darkness before his eyes. When the world before him became clear again, he found himself standing on a riverbank. The river in front of him had dried up, leaving nothing behind, as if everything before had been nothing but a dream.
But feeling the surging power within him, he truly told himself that those experiences were not fake.
With a wave of his hand, golden light pierced through layers of space, yet he found nothing. Just as he was about to search again,
Rumble!
The void above his head suddenly cracked open, and celestial light descended. An extremely sharp feeling enveloped him, and his brow burned as if it would split open at any moment.
Meanwhile, on the vast battlefield of the immortals, Shi Hao and Wang Xi stopped searching for Li Dao's footprints and stood still. In the distance, the sky seemed about to collapse, and something was falling.
Upon seeing that thing, Shi Hao felt a chill run down his spine and his scalp tingled.
"This is the Execution Platform!"
He had seen this thing before when he was undergoing tribulation, but he had never come into contact with it. But today it has descended upon him.
Li Dao burst through the earth and hung in mid-air. The surroundings were desolate, somewhat similar to the scenes he had encountered in the long river of time, but many things were different due to the passage of time.
hum!
His attention was drawn to the execution platform above his head, and his expression turned serious as he looked up.
This is a Taoist altar with a guillotine on it. From a distance, it looks very gentle, but only when you are under its blade can you feel the chilling aura, as if your primordial spirit and physical body could be severed, making you feel cold all over.
It is said that the Execution Platform was prepared for some extraordinary beings, and its reappearance now must be for the purpose of killing Li Dao.
"Who could it be that actually led someone to the Execution Platform!" Wang Xi murmured to himself, vaguely guessing what was going on, but he was too horrified to believe.
"No one survived beneath the Execution Platform. What did that person do to summon such a terrifying heavenly tribulation?" On the golden ship in the distance, a cultivator who was healing his injuries couldn't help but stand up and murmur upon seeing this scene.
Li Dao stood beneath the Execution Platform, his inner world trembling, the Daoist land illuminated by the golden lotus shimmering.
hum!
He took out his bronze spear, summoned the Divine Refining Furnace, and half of his body was bathed in golden divine light, making him sacred and inviolable. His entire body was intertwined with burning black and white Dao flames, and his aura soared into the sky as he stood ready for battle.
