Boom...
The phenonon beca increasingly lifelike, and the remnants of the Innate Taoist Body’s might were beyond belief.
First, the Nine-tailed Red Fox separated from the phenonon. The thirty-ter-long body appeared vividly alive, and its nine fla-like tails swung casually.
Next, an overwhelming flood of shadows surged forth.
"Roar!!"
The tiger’s roar was deafening. The Ghost Tiger stood atop the Practice Hall, its body constantly shifting between reality and illusion, as if plunging the Chaotic Burial Furnace into eternal night.
Soon ca the appearances of the Kun Whale and Salamander, two other Exotic Beasts that had previously revealed themselves at the docks.
The Three Mountains lowered their heads upon witnessing the scene—not out of fear, but to curb the delight welling up inside, lest they be noticed by Old Earth True Monarch.
Anyone with discerning eyes could tell that Daoist Qingtian’s phenonon was far beyond what ordinary Taoist Bodies could rival.
At the very least, it could be compared to the Primordial Dao Body.
"Qingtian, oh Qingtian, ti and fate indeed."
Though the Sub-Device Sect didn’t classify Innate Taoist Bodies by strength, differences among Taoist Bodies were undeniable. So Innate Taoist Bodies could even completely transform the body and soul of Artifact Cultivators.
The Three Mountains realized that Daoist Qingtian was highly likely to face a conflict of Taoist Bodies.
The Five Dao Body, involving various vital organs, was already extrely rare for its harmonious coalescence. Now with the Beast-type Dao Body evolving into Innateness, it was likely that Daoist Qingtian’s fra had beco a battlefield for the Taoist Bodies.
Old Earth True Monarch furrowed his brows, ntally sifting through information on Beast-type Taoist Bodies in hopes of aiding Li Mo through the predicant.
"What the hell?"
He knew Li Mo’s Acquired Dao Body was the Life-gathering Beast Body, having witnessed it at the docks where it fused with at limbs to transform into a colossal Red Fox.
Its power was indeed formidable.
But how, after the Life-gathering Beast Body’s evolution into Innateness, did it morph into an unidentified Beast-type Dao Body?
As Old Earth True Monarch pondered over this in a daze, several Nascent Soul Great Powers sent their Divine Sense down to the Chaotic Burial Furnace, seeking to discern the truth behind the various phenona.
Croak...
The Three-legged Golden Toad appeared atop the Practice Hall, emitting an overwhelming tallic sinister aura.
The Artifact Cultivators backed off one after another, unable to fathom that Daoist Qingtian was rely promoting to the Fake Pill Stage. Should his Taoist Body remain unhard, he could truly aim for a Perfect Golden Core.
The figures of Nascent Souls surrounded the Chaotic Burial Furnace, their oppressive presence paralyzing the Mountain Gate disciples with fear.
rely breaking through to the Fake Pill Stage, Daoist Qingtian had already drawn widespread attention, even alarming Nascent Soul Great Powers from Zone 9.
Old Earth True Monarch sighed deeply.
Seeing the phenonon about to reach its pinnacle suggested that the Taoist Body was nearing completion, making external assistance for Li Mo evidently unfeasible.
"Old Earth."
"If your Chaotic Burial Furnace cannot nurture Qingtian, hand him over to Bai Gu Qianzu."
Big Deer Thousand Feet glanced coldly at Old Earth True Monarch and continued disdainfully, "Letting Qingtian’s Taoist Body revert from Acquired to Innate is rely wasting the Five Dao Body’s talent."
Old Earth True Monarch’s expression turned cloudy, yet he refrained from responding.
He regretted not intervening decisively earlier when Li Mo revealed the phenonon of his Taoist Body. If the Five Dao Body were damaged during the Fake Pill Stage, it would indeed be an irreparable loss.
"Heh heh heh, don’t jump to conclusions."
The speaker was Wu Guang Daoist, whose form resembled a jet-black charcoal stick, hailing from the Eight Districts Dao Unity, "Eternal Night Without Light."
"Old Earth, if the Taoist Body conflicts, notify so I can study it."
"Scram."
Old Earth True Monarch erupted in anger, which also displeased Big Deer Thousand Feet. Both held high hopes for Daoist Qingtian’s future, conflict notwithstanding.
"Heh heh heh heh..."
Wu Guang Daoist let out a sinister cackle, his gaze fixated on the Practice Hall.
After the Three-legged Golden Toad vanished, the roars of a Mountain Demon echoed across the skies. A long-ard, long-legged Monkey appeared as a shadow, mutating wildly within re breaths, resembling a shapeless deceitful object.
"Worthy of Qingtian. This Taoist Body must be unprecedented in history."
Fan Mu murmured to himself, "Such a Beast-type Taoist Body might be dispensable; yet, its irregularity warrants studying the patterns of Taoist Bodies. One could presumably originate new Taoist inheritances from this."
"What a pity."
Big Deer Thousand Feet shook his head slightly.
Though Li Mo’s innovation in creating Beast Head at Limbs was unconventional, the limitations of a Beast-type Taoist Body prevented Core Formation into Nascent Soul, which was indeed regrettable.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, a tangible wave of oppressive might burst forth.
The Nascent Soul Great Powers simultaneously turned their attention to the Practice Hall. Within a kiloter radius of the building, the surroundings abruptly transford into blinding daylight.
Before they could react, the daylight shifted into utter darkness.
The outline of what seed to be a giant creature, neither snake nor dragon, briefly erged amidst the fading phenonon, lasting less than half a breath.
The Practice Hall returned to tranquility.
The Chaotic Burial Furnace extended by two ters, and the radiance from breaking into the Fake Pill Stage was more striking than typical Core Formation, showcasing Li Mo’s profound foundation.
The eyes of low-level Artifact Cultivators turned red, nearly suffering impaired vision as a result.
Fan Mu murmured, "No sign of chaotic Spiritual Energy. Could this be fine?"
The Three Mountains stared sharply at the Practice Hall. Through the mist-enshrouded structure, a figure was faintly visible, slowly approaching the entrance.
His face turned red as he staked all hopes of entering the Inner Sect on Li Mo.
Soon after, Li Mo erged from the mist, establishing that he hadn’t encountered a Taoist Body conflict—his aura remained extraordinarily restrained.
"Greetings to all seniors."
Li Mo greeted respectfully. He had just completed his breakthrough and received a ssage from Old Earth True Monarch; otherwise, he had intended to stabilize his cultivation further.
Despair filled the eyes of Three Mountains; no matter how he viewed it, Li Mo was unscathed.
With the talent of Innate Five Dao Body, what qualifications remained for competing against Daoist Qingtian? Among Artifact Cultivators of the sa generation, they were destined to beco stepping stones.
The Three Mountains felt so clarity in his heart, though he couldn’t suppress the lancholy on his face.
Old Earth True Monarch released Spiritual Power to shield the Mountain Gate. "Good. Despite the scare, it is over now. Prepare for Core Formation next."
Wu Guang Daoist stared greedily at Li Mo, black smoke surging from his mouth and nostrils.
"Interesting. Perhaps this is the Heavenly Human Seven Apertures in a damaged form, maintaining such a delicate equilibrium for the Five Innate Dao Body."
The other Nascent Soul Great Powers remained silent, fixating on Li Mo, eager to uncover the reason behind the lack of Taoist Body conflict.
"Leave now. With Qingtian’s successful promotion to the Fake Pill Stage, he needs to enter closed cultivation and prepare for the Thirty Years Old Stage."
Old Earth True Monarch promptly issued an eviction notice, avoiding the revelation of flaws in Li Mo’s Taoist Body, which could jeopardize Golden Cauldron Sect two decades later.
Big Deer Thousand Feet raised an eyebrow, perceiving the strangeness in Li Mo’s Beast-type Taoist Body.
"Qingtian, did your Acquired Taoist Body undergo any creation? It seems to have transcended the realm of the Life-gathering Beast Body..."
Before he could finish, Old Earth True Monarch activated the Mountain Protection Array of the Chaotic Burial Furnace, dispersing the Divine Sense of the Nascent Souls amidst dense fog.
However, their lingering interest revealed their continued attention to Li Mo. Once he established his Core Formation, the world would surely ripple with All Directions Cloud Movent.
"Focus on your retreat, aiming for promotion to the Thirty Years Old Stage as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Senior Old Earth."
Li Mo responded readily; the cultivation environnt inside the Practice Hall far exceeded that of the docks and would better aid with resolving the Death Disease.
"Still, what’s the deal with your Taoist Body?"
"While refining Beast Head at Limbs, this junior grasped so insights, leading to series of dical interventions on the Life-gathering Beast Body, particularly concerning blood vessels..."
Old Earth True Monarch’s pupils constricted, cutting him off with a burst of alarm. "You’ve got nerve."
Though marveling at Li Mo’s audacious thods, he suppressed his thoughts and instructed gravely, "Forget about this matter and never bring it up again."
"Additionally, don’t worry about the shop at the docks; if you don’t wish to run it, simply close its doors temporarily."
"Senior Old Earth, I still intend to earn so Spirit Stones." Li Mo counted on the shop to collect various Magic inheritances while keeping an eye on the Heart Beast Territory through Daoist Qingqiu.
Seeing through Li Mo’s intentions, Old Earth True Monarch suggested, "Then let the sect’s disciples handle it. You can have Magic Artifacts or Corpse Wine sent to the docks through them."
Many Artifact Cultivators beca intrigued upon hearing this.
Building a connection with Daoist Qingtian would undoubtedly be advantageous.
"Senior Old Earth, allow to do it."
Three Mountains spoke up proactively, drawing astonishnt from other Artifact Cultivators who had expected him to retain hopes of competing with Li Mo.
Old Earth True Monarch maintained a neutral expression and replied placidly, "Fine."
He could easily discern Three Mountains’ ntal fluctuations earlier but chose to let it slide because Li Mo represented the inevitable trend of dominance.
After expressing his resolve, Three Mountains bowed and withdrew, seeming more at peace.
Once assigning responsibility for the shop’s matters, Old Earth True Monarch vanished into the depths of the Chaotic Burial Furnace, heading for its profound subterranean layers.
Under the awe-filled gaze of his peers, Li Mo turned and entered the Practice Hall.
By placing the resources bound for the docks outside the entrance, Three Mountains would co to collect them. Moreover, the latter had already sworn a Heart Demon Oath.
Li Mo had no need to worry about any foul play from Three Mountains.
He sat cross-legged on the first floor of the Practice Hall. Dust covered the ground, indicating its long abandonnt, with no signs of Do Mountain present.
Li Mo circulated his energy to stabilize the Ash Spirit Power, his mind reviewing the process of his breakthrough.
The lting Furnace’s break into the Fake Pill Stage had been entirely seamless, largely due to the imprinting of Hui Qingyi—a transformation in his Acquired Dao Body bearing trendous upheaval.
Although his surgical modifications to the Life-gathering Beast Body were ticulous, integrating the Hundred Beasts Blood Body near-perfectly, minor oversights remained.
Fortunately, the Creation Book intervened; otherwise, the Taoist Bodies might have indeed clashed.
Li Mo imrsed himself in his body’s evolution, incapable of deliberately restraining the phenona. The resultant Innate Taoist Body was truly unprecedented.
The Creation Book offered no feedback, further confirming its uniqueness as a serendipitous innovation.
Li Mo jokingly nad the Taoist Body "Ancient Sacred Body," finding its effect uncannily aligned with Hui Qingyi and capable of amplifying the power of Tattooed Beasts.
The Ancient Sacred Body rendered the Tattooed Beasts as living beings.
Even if the tattoos were completely obliterated, as long as Li Mo remained alive, the Tattooed Beasts could gradually regenerate by absorbing Spiritual Energy.
Previously, he’d needed the dicinal power of Nourishing Yuan Fruits to repair his tattoos; moreover, as the Tattooed Beasts underwent continual evolution, their consumption of Nourishing Yuan Fruit beca increasingly exorbitant.
Li Mo scrutinized his tattoos all over.
Through the Ancient Sacred Body’s transformation into a Tattooed Beast, any damage sustained would be borne by the Beast, essentially granting him an extra life.
If Li Mo beca the Ghost Tiger and fell to an opponent, when returning to his original form, he would rely lose an arm—until the arm eventually regenerated, at which point the Ghost Tiger could once again revive using the Ancient Sacred Body.
"Standing in an invincible position?"
He smiled, finally gaining confidence in the Golden Cauldron Sect.
Li Mo began preparing Mist Fog Spiritual Power to subdue the Fourth Spirit. Compared to Ash Spirit Power, Mist Fog Spiritual Power required absolute silence to operate.
Though the Artifact Cultivators were aware of his dual cultivation in Mist Fog Spiritual Power, hidden aces were always advantageous.
