Chapter 17 Memory Sharing, Breakthrough to Great Luo Golden Immortal
Chapter 17 Memory Sharing, Breakthrough to Great Luo Golden Immortal
Wanshou Mountain, inside Wuzhuang Temple.
This place has been nourished by the Primordial Earth Guardian Array over the years, and is no longer an ordinary place.
The chaotic airflow from the outside world was transformed into auspicious mist by the power of the great formation, merging with the incomparably pure innate earth essence, forming a tangible, dark yellow mist.
It has evolved into various wondrous phenomena of the earth, such as golden lotuses emerging from the ground, overlapping mountains, and dragons and snakes rising from the land. These phenomena are extremely mysterious, and every breath contains the supreme Daoist mechanism.
At the very core of the grand formation, a thick, majestic, and boundless aura of dark yellow light, about ten feet in diameter, floated silently. Its light was soft yet profound, as if it contained a boundless world.
This is precisely Zhen Yuanzi's true form—the essence of the innate Earth element.
Although it has not yet taken human form due to the untimely arrival of the time, its aura is vast and profound, already at the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. It is only one step away from the Great Luo Dao Fruit, but it is still an insurmountable gap.
Before the halo, the handsome and dashing Taoist Hongyun, dressed in a crimson Taoist robe, sat cross-legged with a focused expression.
On either side, the young Taoists Qingfeng and Mingyue held their breath, straightened their small bodies, and listened with rapt attention, afraid of missing a single word.
Zhen Yuanzi was lecturing them on the principles of the earth's virtue in bearing all things and the essentials of cultivation methods. His voice was not conveyed through his tongue, but directly through the fluctuations of his divine thoughts. He explained the profound mysteries of the "Kun Yuan True Scripture" and the laws of heaven and earth in a simple and profound way, with every word a gem.
When the discussion reached the most profound and subtle points, the entire earth veins of Longevity Mountain resonated with it, trembling slightly, and the rich, liquid-like innate spiritual energy around them was drawn by the Daoist rhythm.
They automatically converged into dazzling golden lotuses, blooming out of thin air, then quietly vanishing, returning to spiritual energy, endlessly cycling, with the Daoist charm permeating every inch of space.
Just as the sermon was reaching its most profound point, and everyone was immersed in the realm of Tao, a sudden change occurred!
A streak of azure light moved faster than thought could process, ignoring the innate earth formation that was strong enough to withstand attacks from even a Grand Luo Golden Immortal.
As if it were part of the grand formation, like a meteor falling from the sky, it landed directly in the core of the temple. The light faded, revealing the towering figure of the Longevity Sovereign.
His aura was as deep as the sea, and the fluctuations of a Great Luo Golden Immortal's magical power were deliberately concealed.
However, the invisible pressure brought about by the leap in life level still spread like mercury, causing the mysterious preaching to come to an abrupt halt, and the golden lotus blooming and disappearing in the air also paused.
"Fellow Daoist is back!" Hongyun was the first to recover from his astonishment, and his face immediately showed genuine joy. He could clearly feel the completely different and heart-palpitating powerful aura emanating from Wanshou Yuanjun.
Qingfeng and Mingyue also quickly rose from the prayer mat, bowed respectfully, and said with excitement and awe, "Greetings, Master (avatar)."
Wanshou Yuanjun first nodded slightly to Hongyun as a greeting, then her gaze instantly fell on the ball of dark yellow innate earth essence.
The two are one, originating from the same source, and there is a profound connection between them that transcends words. Without any small talk or formalities, an invisible yet close bond is instantly established, and everything is understood without words.
"This trip has been very fruitful, and I will share it with my own body."
The Goddess of Longevity spoke succinctly. After speaking, she sat down cross-legged directly in front of the spirit of the Earth Guardian, closed her eyes, and looked solemn.
The next moment, a flash of blue light appeared between his brows, and a stream of divine thought light, condensed to the extreme and containing a vast and complex flow of information, surged out like a bursting dam, yet was precisely controlled, merging into the dark yellow halo without any hindrance.
Hongyun sat upright to one side, while Qingfeng and Mingyue stood on either side.
At the same time, Wanshou Yuanjun and Zhen Yuanzi's true forms trembled slightly. A vast, complex torrent of thoughts, containing countless images, insights, emotions, and even fragments of the Great Dao Laws, was transmitted and merged between them at a speed that transcended time.
The two were surrounded by intense Daoist energy fluctuations, with various strange phenomena appearing. At times, azure light soared into the sky, and at other times, a great surge of primordial yellow energy appeared, as if they were undergoing some kind of dramatic transformation.
Zhen Yuanzi's true form—that ball of primordial earth essence—is currently receiving, analyzing, and digesting all the memory information and personal insights transmitted by Wanshou Yuanjun at an astonishing speed:
At the very beginning of his journey at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, he used his pure Dao body to resist the ever-present and increasingly terrifying pressure of Pangu. Every step he took was difficult and resilient.
Halfway up the mountain, by chance, they discovered an innate restriction. They spent their minds comprehending the incomparably profound innate Four Symbols Grand Array and finally obtained the unexpected surprise of the innate spiritual root Four Symbols Banana Tree.
During the climb, the physical body was repeatedly pushed to its limits and nearly collapsed. Under extreme pressure, it relied on the "True Scripture of Yi Wood" and its indomitable will to achieve a breakthrough, eventually reaching the exhilarating and painful tempering of the middle stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.
At the summit, the oppressive environment suddenly changed, and the awe-inspiring spiritual experience and the sublimation of the Dao realm were directly confronted with the magnificent and boundless indomitable will of Pangu and the traces of the initial opening of the myriad Daos.
Upon reaching the summit, standing atop the primordial wilderness, overlooking the heavens and earth, one experiences the boundless grandeur of "seeing all the mountains as small" and the natural and effortless attainment of the Great Luo Dao Fruit through the flow of one's inner magical power.
And then there was the greatest harvest, one that shook the entire primordial world—the entire process of discovering and carefully collecting those three drops of Pangu Jade Marrow, including the purest and most primordial creative power contained within the jade marrow, a power that terrified the soul yet yearned for with all its might…
Even more astounding, on the way down the mountain, in a secluded cave on the mountainside, they unexpectedly encountered a nine-clawed golden dragon formed from the last wisp of Pangu's primordial energy mixed with a great deal of Xuanhuang merit...
All of this, all the experiences, all the obstacles, all the insights, and all the gains.
It was as if Zhen Yuanzi had personally experienced it all. Every detail, every heart palpitation, every moment of enlightenment, and every emotional fluctuation was perfectly and flawlessly integrated into the depths of his consciousness, transforming into his most precious experience and deepest foundation.
This shared memory and understanding, originating from the same source, has an effect far beyond what words can describe or techniques can teach.
It is equivalent to Zhen Yuanzi perfectly and immersively replicating the entire journey and insights of Wanshou Yuanjun's trip to Buzhou Mountain without expending any of his own time or energy! Its value is immeasurable!
"boom--!"
With the complete integration and absorption of this massive amount of memories and insights, especially the enlightenment of heaven and earth and the baptism of the Great Dao at the moment of reaching the top, as well as the original touch brought by the Pangu Jade Marrow, Zhen Yuanzi's cultivation bottleneck, which had been stagnant at the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal for a long time, was shattered as if by an invisible giant hammer!
The immense innate earth essence converged wildly from the veins of Longevity Mountain, causing the entire mountain range to roar.
His aura rose at a visible speed, quickly breaking through an invisible barrier that had once been indestructible, and entering a completely new, more vast, powerful, and mysterious realm!
Great Golden Immortal!
Thus, Zhen Yuanzi, the essence of the primordial earth element, finally attained the Great Luo Dao Fruit! He transcended the Three Realms and was no longer bound by the Five Elements!
Although its physical form still retains the form of the innate essence of the earth and has not yet had the opportunity to transform, its essence has undergone a tremendous transformation. Its magical power is vast and boundless, its divine sense can reach all directions of heaven and earth, and its understanding of the way of the earth has reached an unprecedented level, almost reaching the Dao!
The dark yellow aura surrounding it grew thicker, more brilliant, and deeper. As the light flowed, it seemed as if countless miniature mountains, rivers, and lands were being created and evolving within it, containing boundless creation and power.
