Chapter 19: Chapter Eighteen: Five Elements Mountain Dharma Aspect, Tianling Great Realm

Within his body, a Five Peaks Five Colors Mountain and a Five Colors Five Light Sea transcended space and time.

They existed simultaneously within the Flesh Dharma Body and the Great Dao Primordial Spirit.

This also meant that as long as he possessed either the Dharma Body or the Primordial Spirit, he could manifest and unleash the Mountain-Sea Immortal Scripture.

Moreover, as long as either of the two still existed, the True Mountain and Mysterious Sea he had cultivated would have no worry of regression.

……

At this moment, Chen Daoxuan sensed clearly that with the initial completion of the Mountain-Sea Immortal Scripture, his Flesh Dharma Body and Great Dao Primordial Spirit, bolstered by the embryonic forms of the Five Elements True Mountain and Five Elements Mysterious Sea, began to skyrocket out of thin air.

The Flesh Dharma Body even had a trace of an immortal rhythm flowing through it.

As for the Twenty Thousand Zhang Great Dao Primordial Spirit, it was condensed twofold in some mysterious way.

At the brow of both the Flesh Dharma Body and the Great Dao Primordial Spirit, a trace of a Mountain-Sea Immortal Mark appeared.

Besides this, within the Primordial Spirit Dharma Realm, in addition to the original Xuanwu Dharma Aspect, there was also a Five Elements Mountain Dharma Aspect rapidly taking shape.

In the span of Three Breaths, the Five Elements Mountain Dharma Aspect within the Primordial Spirit Dharma Realm was completely condensed into form.

And in an instant, the newly formed Five Elements Mountain Dharma Aspect rose from Ten Thousand Zhang to Twenty Thousand Zhang.

"Is this the wonder of an Immortal Scripture?"

"The difference between cultivating an Immortal Scripture and not cultivating one is simply too great!"

Sensing these changes, Chen Daoxuan felt a touch of lament amid his joy.

As his thoughts flowed, Chen Daoxuan shook his head slightly and gathered his composure.

He stepped out of the Cuivei Immortal Mansion and drew it into his body.

Radiant light flowed around his body, his Aura of True Treasure was fully retracted, and he changed back into his original attire.

Then Chen Daoxuan summoned Xuanwu Ding Ninety-Nine and headed toward the Array Eye sealing the Dao Thought Body.

He prepared to slay the Dao Thought Body, using it to familiarize himself with his current conditions in all aspects and understand his specific combat strength.

Although with his status as a Reserve Dao Child, the authority he possessed allowed him to directly cancel or complete this mission.

Chen Daoxuan did not wish to expose his identity as a Reserve Dao Child for the time being.

Nor did he wish to leave such an excellent cultivation ground as the Xuanwu Mie Xian Zhen for the time being.

He prepared to let things take their natural course and complete the mission normally.

……

"True Disciple, why does it feel like your attire this time seems different from before?"

Carrying Chen Daoxuan, Xuanwu Ding Ninety-Nine asked:

"They all look like True Treasures!"

Hearing Ding Ninety-Nine's question, Chen Daoxuan merely smiled.

"Haha, after achieving the Soul Egress stage, I added some materials and refined them anew."

……

It took a mere three days.

After slaying a Dao Thought Body over ten thousand times consecutively and utterly destroying it, Chen Daoxuan had a detailed understanding and mastery of his current combat strength.

Only then did he ride the black-mist Xuanwu manifested by Xuanwu Ding Ninety-Nine and return to the Huang Jie Fu Di.

He then directly released the Cuivei Immortal Mansion and entered it.

……

He sat cross-legged within the Cuivei Immortal Mansion.

Sensing the coordinates of the Yuanling Realm and another world upon the Kunlun Mirror.

He had originally intended to go to the Yuanling Realm to retrieve the Heaven-Stealing Stone.

But recalling how, back then, he had been forced to leave shortly after entering that Second World, a stray thought arose in Chen Daoxuan's heart.

Seeing this, Chen Daoxuan did not dispel this stray thought.

Instead, he sensed the set of True Talismans within his body that he had already fully refined.

With a thought, he activated a True Talisman for fleeing — the 【Heavenly Escape Talisman】.

Instantly, Chen Daoxuan's figure vanished into thin air.

He entered a mysterious state of Heavenly Escape.

Concealing everything, and able to flee to the Ten Directions at any moment.

But it could be maintained for at most nine breaths; after nine breaths, unless the True Talisman was severed, he would be forced directly into the state of fleeing to the Ten Directions.

Only then did Chen Daoxuan connect with the Kunlun Mirror and head to that Second World.

……

Silently, Chen Daoxuan arrived at that Second World, descending upon that expanse of Flower Sea.

Only now did Chen Daoxuan have the time to see the full picture of this Flower Sea.

Spanning roughly thirty thousand li in radius, squads of three wearing Azure Divine Armor, totaling twelve squads, mutually supervised one another and continuously patrolled back and forth.

……

Beyond the Flower Sea, in the south, west, and north directions, vast spiritual resonance permeated the air, with countless living beings' auras converging and the Qi of the Mortal World shooting skyward.

Only in the eastern direction was the spiritual resonance representing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi thin, and the auras of living beings relatively weak and sparse.

Seeing this, after carefully sensing for several breaths, Chen Daoxuan looked toward the eastern direction.

He directly controlled the Heavenly Escape Talisman, activating the state of fleeing to the Ten Directions, and sped toward the east at extreme velocity.

Instantly, Chen Daoxuan perceived as if all things had stilled and time itself flowed backward.

And he himself seemed to merge with the Great Dao, crossing the gap without barrier.

In an instant, he arrived at a region where Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was relatively thin, capable of sustaining at most beings of the Nascent Soul level.

He had not sensed any sense of threat either.

It was just that Chen Daoxuan could sense that this world seemed to be unwelcoming toward him.

Completely different from when he was in the Yuanling Realm.

……

With a thought, his divine sense spread over tens of thousands of miles.

After a few breaths, the Five Elements radiant light flowed around Chen Daoxuan's body, and he teleported over three thousand miles.

Arriving outside a cave dwelling of a Core Formation Cultivator, at a sect's core spirit peak.

With a wisp of Five Elements radiance flowing, all the defenses and prohibitions of that cave dwelling that could withstand a Nascent Soul's attack completely lost their effect.

"Senior, spare my life!"

Inside the cave dwelling, that beautiful female cultivator in her twenties, emanating the Aura of mid Core Formation, did not see Chen Daoxuan's figure, nor did she sense any aura, and directly knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.

In response, Chen Daoxuan manifested his divine sense.

In an instant, under the impact of Chen Daoxuan's divine sense, the Core Formation female cultivator fell into a coma, collapsing onto the ground, at anyone's mercy.

Only then did Chen Daoxuan begin to perform a soul search on this Core Formation female cultivator.

……

"Tianling Great Realm, the immortal path of merit and fortune."

"Chaos invasion!"

"Ten thousands of Fortune Immortal Kingdoms, Merit Immortal Gates."

"Fortune Immortal Kingdoms suppress the three fortunes of heaven, earth, and man; Merit Immortal Gates teach and transform all spirits of heaven and earth."

"Together resisting the Chaos invasion!"

Regarding some information about this world, Chen Daoxuan began to understand it through the soul search.

After an hour, when Chen Daoxuan completed the full soul search.

He already understood this Core Formation female cultivator he had soul-searched better than she understood herself.

……

He pondered slightly for a moment.

The Five Elements Mountain Dharma Aspect emerged, sinking deep into the earth.

Entering an inheritance secret mansion sealed from the inside out.

He took out the two items stored within this inheritance secret mansion, an inheritance jade slip, and a ring-shaped mid-grade Numinous Treasure.

……

Spending an hour, he understood the information in the inheritance jade slip, and refined this ring-shaped Numinous Treasure.

Only then did Chen Daoxuan awaken that Core Formation female cultivator.

Because of the gap in cultivation realms between the two sides, the gap in cultivation methods, and because Chen Daoxuan had not used a violent soul search.

When the Core Formation female cultivator awoke, apart from feeling a dullness in her mind, she had no other sensations.

She then saw Chen Daoxuan's figure standing with his hands behind his back.

Sensing Chen Daoxuan's vast and boundless Aura, the Core Formation female cultivator directly bowed.

"Qian Yun greets Senior."

"I wonder what service I might offer Senior."

Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan did not respond, only activating the ring-shaped Numinous Treasure he had just obtained.

Immediately, a hint of pleasant surprise appeared on the beautiful face of that Core Formation female cultivator, Qian Qianyun.

"Greetings, Ancestor!"
