Rumbling--

However, as the giant palm pressed down, each root turned into dust inch by inch, and after only half a breath, it returned to the world.

Beneath that gigantic hand, the Demon Tree roared, and its cracked branches snapped off.

bang——

Smoke and dust billowed, earth and rocks flew everywhere, and the terrifying aftershocks of the battle spread outwards.

The giant hand descended, shattering the mountain range where the Pumo Tree was located, causing isolated peaks to collapse.

The indifferent look in Li Dao's eyes, like that of a deity, gradually returned to normal. Behind him, the Ten Heavenly Caves were devouring the energy of heaven and earth, replenishing their energy like a surging river.

The image of the Celestial Venerable slowly dissipated into the air, and everything returned to silence. The thick dark clouds overhead gradually dispersed, and the golden light that shone down pierced through the dust and smoke in front of him.

The chaotic scene before Li Dao's eyes was also laid bare. The earth seemed to have been turned upside down, with not a single patch of intact land remaining. In the center of the ravaged land, a Pumo tree, its body oozing green liquid, lay quietly.

With a single step, ripples spread out beneath his feet, and he instantly appeared beside the Demon Tree.

Feeling that the vitality emanating from it had completely dissipated, Li Dao finally showed a look of exhaustion on his face.

"We almost fell victim to this demon tree!"

When the final blow was delivered, it completely drained his magical power and vital energy, leaving him in a very bad state.

His vital energy was almost depleted, and the cracks that had previously appeared on his body reappeared.

"Fortunately, we finally got rid of this demon tree!"

"However, the most important thing right now is to leave this place!"

Thinking this, he took out the Refining God Furnace and put it away. He picked up Hei Sha, who was also trapped in the illusion, and fled rapidly into the distance, already sensing that many cultivators were heading this way.

If we were to face those cultivators in this state, who knows what would happen?

Chapter 122 The Unity of the Ten Grotto-Heavens

Shortly after Li Dao left, several figures appeared in the same spot.

Seeing the mess on the ground, everyone who arrived was shocked.

"What a devastating battle that took place! An entire mountain range was shattered."

"Look, there are traces of blood here! This is the fluff of the Pumo Tree. Could it be that the Black Tiger Taoist fought with the Pumo Tree?"

"It must be him, and he's seriously injured!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions became somewhat mysterious, for the name of the Black Tiger Taoist had never ceased to be heard since entering Hundred Broken Mountains.

Many cultivators are extremely curious about him, whether it's his mysterious identity, his powerful Taoist magic and divine abilities, or his incomparably powerful magical artifacts; each and every one of these things is hard not to attract attention.

If one could obtain even one of these items, it would undoubtedly lead to a leap forward in one's strength.

"The indigenous people of Baiduan Mountain are about to emerge. To ensure their safety, we should find them as soon as possible!"

"That's right. It's a real pity that such a hero died in Hundred Broken Mountains. We must hurry up and find him!"

"Yes, too!"

Their faces were full of righteous indignation, but what they were really thinking was unknown to anyone but themselves.

Meanwhile, Li Dao led Hei Sha on a journey of hundreds of miles, finally arriving at a huge lake.

The lake, like a mirror, is set on the earth, reflecting the flawless sky.

Li Dao sat down cross-legged under a large tree by the lake, frantically absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.

Black Fiend was guarding him from the side, but he was forcibly pulled back from the illusion by Li Dao, and his expression was somewhat listless.

Behind him, a large tree swayed, and Li Dao sat peacefully beneath it. The Ten Heavens Cave emitted a shimmering light, and a ray of starlight swept over him, pulling him directly into the Star River Space.

Sitting atop the starry river, a flood of previous insights surged into my mind: the divine might of the Order Chains, the illusionary allure of the Demon Tree, and my understanding of time gained from forging the Divine Refining Furnace…

A variety of insights surfaced in my mind, and I was completely immersed in profound and mysterious understanding.

"My grotto is boundless, yet my grotto is orderly."

"I am Wuji, I am Order!"

"My body is a grotto-heaven that connects heaven and earth."

The thought, like a drop of water falling into the lake of his heart, immediately stirred up huge waves that threatened to engulf him entirely.

Beneath the giant tree, Li Dao's body trembled slightly, and the ten Heavenly Divine Rings that were slowly rotating behind him instantly froze in mid-air.

Li Dao suddenly opened his eyes and emerged from the Star River Space. Black and white lotuses bloomed in his eyes, a streak of crimson and white light swept in from the sky, and a deep black light surged from the earth.

From top to bottom and from top to top, two distinct streams of light, one black and one white, converge at the dantian.

His body slowly floated up, and as he made a hand seal, the Refining God Furnace shot out, instantly enlarging and landing in the void above his head.

"Refine the spirit, refine the demon, and refine yourself. Today, I will break through the inner cave and merge all the Dao into myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Refining God Furnace directly sucked Li Dao into it.

Inside the Refining Furnace, it was pitch black without a single ray of light, but as Li Dao entered, it was as if a spark ignited the entire dark space.

Everything inside was instantly visible: a pool of essence refined from thousands of cultivators, a Dao flower that had been refined from heavenly lightning and the chains of order, and a pure green liquid refined from the Pumo Tree, radiating a rich life force.

Li Dao slowly closed his eyes, and the Ten Heavenly Caves behind him instantly appeared, resembling ten great suns rising in this vast and secluded space.

Under Li Dao's control, the ten great suns expanded rapidly until they reached their limit and could no longer expand.

Li Dao remained calm, coldly uttering a single word:

"broken!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire space fell silent, and then the Heavenly Cave within it shattered instantly.

Click, click—

In an instant, excruciating pain swept through his entire body. A look of agony appeared on Li Dao's usually calm face, and a crack appeared on his body, extending from his waist and abdomen to his cheek.

Blood flowed out in gurgling streams, and the entire space echoed with the sound of the void trembling when the cave shattered.

The excruciating pain did not stop Li Dao; blood trickled from his mouth as he roared:

"broken!"

"broken!"

"broken!"

"..."

The sound, filled with pain, echoed in this space for a long time, and crisscrossing spatial rifts could be seen hanging high in the void above.

Beneath that spatial rift, Li Dao's body was covered in cracks, resembling a piece of porcelain that had long been broken but forcibly pieced back together.

Drops of blood, imbued with golden divine essence, gushed from the cracks in his body, his muscles convulsing uncontrollably.

Li Dao felt his life force rapidly dwindling. With difficulty, he raised his hand, formed a hand seal, and the vibrant green energy surging towards him flowed into his body.

However, at this moment his body was like a sieve, unable to retain any life essence, but it could be considered as prolonging his life.

He took a deep breath and sat cross-legged in the void, with fragments of the shattered cave behind him floating irregularly around him.

He endured the pain in his body with great difficulty, and a strange ripple slowly spread from his body.

The fragments of the cave behind them, which were slowly dissipating, emitted a faint glow and slowly gathered together.

He raised his hand and formed another hand seal. The pool of liquid, which was filled with divine essence, seemed to have received a command and surged towards Li Dao.

gurgling—

A long, golden river hung in mid-air, continuously flowing into Li Dao's body.

hum-

As the essence was infused, his body seemed to receive rain after a long drought; the cracks on his skin emitted divine light and slowly healed.

With a continuous influx of divine essence, the fragments of the grotto behind him were constantly merging together.

Ding ding ding—

The sounds of metal clashing came from behind him, and a larger, more imposing shape, like the beginnings of a small world, slowly took shape.

However, as time slowly passed, the speed at which the fragmented caves behind them merged did not accelerate.

Each fragment seemed to touch some terrifying taboo as it merged with the others, moving exceptionally slowly, accompanied by clanging sounds of metal striking metal.

"If this pace continues, even if we exhaust all our current resources, we may not be able to achieve the unification of the ten grotto heavens!"

Li Dao frowned involuntarily, and could only continue to accelerate the injection of divine power.

However, just when he felt helpless, the golden Dao seed within his body emitted countless divine lights.

Golden roots extended from the seed, crawling across his body and mending the cracks.

The roots, imbued with Daoist essence, burst forth from the body, densely and tightly entwining themselves around each fragment of the grotto-heaven.

"This……"

Chapter 123 The Seed of Dao Sprouts, Opening the Physical Body's Cave Heaven

Li Dao was startled by the strange sensation within his body, not expecting such a change to occur.

However, before he could think any further, he saw the roots wrap around the fragments of the cave and then suddenly retract them, drawing them all into his body.

hiss hiss hiss—

As fragments of the grotto-heaven merged into his body, Li Dao felt as if his body was about to burst, his flesh and blood trembling.

Then came a feeling of comfort, as if something was about to burst forth.

The golden Dao Fruit within his body trembled slightly, and strange Dao patterns immediately began to climb on the roots that spread out from it.

The fragments of the cave that were absorbed into the body were rapidly reconstructing and merging.

Li Dao guided the various divine liquids within the Refining God Furnace into his body.

buzzing-

A series of Dao sounds, like the primordial Dao, surged forth from his body, and his entire being was enveloped in a large golden cocoon.
