Though the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm naturally lacks the Taoist principles of [Interception of the Dao of Life], Li Fan has endowed it with this capability through the Alchemy Emperor’s Classic by using [Pipa] as a dicinal component.
The transformation on the level of the Great Dao is almost like the birth of innate nature. Initially, there might be so friction, but as ti gradually passes, it will naturally beco a part of the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm’s Heavenly Dao cycle.
"Using Dao as dicine, refining Dao through dicine. The Taiwei Saint Emperor’s thod shares so similarities with Sun Piaomiao’s Alchemy Emperor’s Classic. However, while Sun Piaomiao regards it as the foundation of cultivation, in Taiwei Saint Emperor’s eyes, the myriad dicinal herbs in the garden are rely tools. The core of the Saint Emperor’s Dao path is still the unparalleled Holy Dynasty that spans mountains and seas..."
Compared to the magnificent Taiwei Holy Dynasty, the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm created by Li Fan seems insignificant.
However, Li Fan does not perceive himself as crude.
"Though Xuanhuang is small, it has infinite possibilities. The Holy Dynasty is indeed vast, but its Dao path is already predetermined."
"To align with the Mountain Sea, in the future there will definitely be a battle with many strongn in the Otherworldly Era. Whether the final step can truly be taken is still an unknown factor. As for my Xuanhuang Immortal Realm..."
Li Fan extended his palm, observing the tiny black dot that quietly manifested in his palm.
It was a Dao Yi Bug that had absorbed and assimilated part of the Mo Sha power.
Mo Sha had successfully refined the Pipa, and to prevent detection, the Dao Yi Bug’s erosion had temporarily ceased.
Though it had quietly absorbed for just over thirty days, the Dao Yi Bug had undergone a dramatic internal transformation compared to before.
The most significant change, reaching a level of qualitative change, is the thod by which the Dao Yi Bug devours external entities. Before learning from Mo Sha, the Dao Yi Bug’s thod of erosion hadn’t surpassed the characteristics of ’biological’ consumption. It was like a worm chewing or a cultivator absorbing and refining. Yet after emulating Mo Sha, the Dao Yi Bug’s devouring techniques had leaped to a state close to ’annihilation’.
The efficiency of consumption and devouring abilities had multiplied several tis over.
Moreover, due to the Dao Yi Bug’s inherent characteristic of constant evolution, its erosion capabilities were advancing rapidly, unlike the Mo Sha, whose abilities had beco largely fixed and required external forces for further improvent.
"Today’s Dao Yi Bug swarm can almost be considered close kin to the Mo Sha."
"Taiyi and the Power of Eternity serve to enhance the Mo Sha. They should likewise be effective for the Dao Yi Bug swarm." With this in mind, Li Fan cast the Chapter of {Initial Mountain and Sea Exploration} and the Power of Eternity’s condensed garnt toward the Dao Yi Bug swarm.
Countless black dots sward in, slowly consuming both items.
Unlike the instant enhancent Mo Sha would receive, the Dao Yi Bug swarm’s transformation was slow but steady.
Though called a ’swarm’, it bears little real relation to ’bugs’. The Xuanhuang Immortal Realm’s fantastic creatures do not exist as living beings, but as manifestations of the power of Heaven and Earth. It’s rely Li Fan’s habitual nonclature.
The current essence of the Dao Yi Bug swarm is a new form of power cultivated within the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm, akin in nature to Mo Sha. Since it gestates within the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm, it falls under Li Fan’s control as the Xuanhuang Parents.
"The Dao Yi Bug has not yet fully absorbed the essence of Mo Sha internally."
"It’s still necessary to find sothing for Mo Sha to do to divert its attention as much as possible."
The nascent Mo Sha within the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm, even among primordial potentialities, was nearly unparalleled and hard to rival. To find a suitable opponent, one must look beyond the primordial potentialities.
But with the current level of the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm, it is insufficient to support Li Fan’s safe crossing of mountains and seas. Thus, Li Fan first thought of the Fishing Pond.
Or rather, the Mountain Sea Fishery.
However, after careful consideration, Li Fan ultimately decided not to target the Fishing Pond for the ti being.
"After all, the Fishing Pond, which can connect with the Mountain Sea, suggests that the Fishing Immortal behind it is no ordinary power. Just as when I peek into the Taiwei Holy Dynasty through the Pipa, I am seen by the Taiwei Saint Emperor. When I gaze at or use the Fishing Pond, I am destined to be sensed by that Fishing Immortal."
"Perhaps in the short term, relying on illusion as reality could conceal . However, over ti, the risk of exposure will multiply exponentially. What I need are stable thods to capture things beyond primordial origins..."
Li Fan then thought of the dredging techniques witnessed in a previous life at the Guangwu Star Sea.
With the distribution of Heavenly Pillars varying in bearing capacity, deliberately creating weak points to attract the descent of Dao Yan and form annihilation depressions in hopes of attracting drifting objects within them.
Li Fan had succeeded in replicating this thod in Eternal Reincarnation.
"But the dredging harvest is too unstable. With bad luck, even after a hundred years, one might end up with nothing, only to increase the risk of being engulfed by Dao Yan in vain."
"Fortunately, the Guangwu Star Sea has already taken the first step for . Besides the Taoist Echo and traces of transcendence, it should contain a lot of things beyond primordial origins..."
"When the first Unity is born in the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm, and True Immortals enter the list on the Investiture of the Gods, the Xuanhuang Expedition can officially begin."
With this thought, Li Fan’s attention suddenly focused on Xuanyuan Tuo.
This Dharma-transmitting Heavenly Sovereign, almost forgotten by everyone in the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm, had always drawn Li Fan’s interest.
It’s worth noting that even before the dramatic change in Xuanhuang Heavenly Earth, transmitting Dharma had already reached the Realm of Unification. With the sublimation of Xuanhuang into an Immortal World, its Essence of Heaven and Earth [Golden Governance] had grown imasurably stronger.
Yet, transmitting Dharma remains frozen in past strength.
Theoretically, as soon as Li Fan lifted the seal, the transmitting Dharma should have been overwheld and exploded from the burgeoning force within.
But now, not only has the transmitting Dharma not perished, but it still deftly wields the transford Golden Governance, which evolved with the Xuanhuang World.
From Li Fan’s perspective, it’s riding the line of extres. Countless filants seem to ensnare it, and any slight movent from Golden Governance risks snapping that control.
Yet, such control exists.
In so sense, the current transmitting Dharma is the first in the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm to reach Unity.
"But only in its current state of peace."
"The mont the balance of Enlightennt is broken, the transmitting Dharma will crumble into nothingness. This is why it remains in seclusion, utterly still."
In a situation where he could fall at any mont, the Celestial Dharma Bearer was not panicked. Instead, he used this unique "Unity Realm" as a stepping stone to seek the true path of unity.
"This is truly a case of either success or sacrifice. Faced with such imnse pressure, he can still remain indifferent," Li Fan secretly admired in his heart.
No wonder he was able to reign over the Xuanhuang for millennia as the Celestial Dharma Bearer.
"Only seek unity, not immortality."
This was the deepest thought that Li Fan could perceive lingering in the Celestial Dharma Bearer’s mind.
And it was precisely under the guidance of this belief that the Celestial Dharma Bearer could, through the faint connection with [Golden Governance] from the past, still maintain control over him now.
Li Fan had a premonition that the Celestial Dharma Bearer seed to be embroiled in so kind of inner conflict at this mont.
After a deep exploration, Li Fan finally understood the source of the Celestial Dharma Bearer’s hesitation.
"So, he already has a secure thod of achieving unity. But if he adopts this thod, he would stop at the Xuanhuang Unity and never surpass the heavens of Xuanhuang in the future. The contrary to the logic of heaven and earth with the new thod of the past, only mastering the affairs of heaven and earth, would no longer be possible..." Having understood what the Celestial Dharma Bearer was contemplating, Li Fan couldn’t help but smile wryly.
"Clearly, he had long realized this point, yet at the mont of taking the final step, he was still undecided."
"It seems that like Tianyang, the Celestial Dharma Bearer also harbors a reluctance to be inferior to others."
However, the ideal thods of the Celestial Dharma Bearer inevitably had an absolute conflict with Li Fan, the Xuanhuang Parents. How could Li Fan possibly hand over the Xuanhuang Immortal Realm?
"If you truly make such a choice, then don’t bla for being ruthless."
"Of course, if you let go of your obsession and willingly beco my underling..."
"Then I won’t hesitate to lend you a helping hand," Li Fan smiled slightly.
As if sensing Li Fan’s inner thoughts, Xuanyuan Tuo, who had been sitting for a long ti, finally made a decision.
Releasing his inner obsession, he exhaled deeply, and his entire deanor beca relaxed.
He opened his eyes and slowly stood up.
Due to his actions, the imnse power of the Essence of Heaven and Earth within him, far beyond his ability to contain, showed signs of losing control and exploding in an instant.
However, all the anomalies inexplicably ceased due to the two sentences softly chanted by the Celestial Dharma Bearer.
"Transform the Essence of Heaven and Earth, unite with the Tao;"
"Stabilize the Principle of Heaven and Earth, to witness immortality!"
These two gentle sentences reverberated like thunders in the sky, soaring towards the clouds. The sound grew louder, echoing unceasingly between heaven and earth.
The Essence of Heaven and Earth’s Golden Governance no longer showed signs of losing control and exploding.
Because the Celestial Dharma Bearer, or rather Xuanyuan Tuo, at this mont had transford into It!
Draped in a golden radiant garnt, the once faceless Essence of Heaven and Earth’s Golden Governance slowly revealed the face of the Celestial Dharma Bearer.
Monts later, the Celestial Dharma Bearer took a step toward the Golden Governance.
The two instantly rged into one!
Before taking the final step, a fleeting sorrow flickered in Xuanyuan Tuo’s eyes. But it lasted only a mont before he fully suppressed it.
Once a decision is made, there is no turning back!
A golden light shot upward.
Reaching the heavens above.
Passed through the Heavenly Sealing God List, straight to the four Heavenly Gates.
From each of the four Heavenly Gates, a beam of brilliance shot forth, converging on Xuanyuan Tuo.
The barrier between Heaven Beyond Heaven and the earth was pierced by this boundless, dazzling light. All beings on the surface could discern the events unfolding at the four Heavenly Gates.
Whirring sounds from the mountains and seas echoed from beyond the gates.
The gates swung open, and infinite immortal power, like a divine gift, cascaded down.
"This is..."
"Immortality?"
Xuanyuan Tuo gazed dazedly at the boundless mountain and sea scenes before him.
For so reason, despite having taken a step that countless people dream of, he felt little excitent.
anwhile, not far away, hidden behind the scenes, Li Fan burst into hearty laughter, a sight long unseen.
"This is truly, where the great path lies untrodden ahead..."
"Xuanhuang Venerable Sage is above!"
