Chapter 803: Breakthrough, Three Transformations Dao Venerable
He moved his hands and feet, and invisible Dao rhythms coiled around him, as if boundless divine powers were effortlessly conjured.
These divine powers had become his instincts, nearly innate.
With a mere flick of his finger, he could suppress the Chaos Long River barehanded.
The power of the Earth Emperor's true form was truly formidable, reaching a terrifying extent.
At the same time, deep within his Niwan Palace, Zhang Jian sensed the illusory shadows of Primordial Qi emerging, the illusory Primordial status beginning to gestate.
This was the natural transformation after refining the Earth Emperor's true form to a certain stage using the Nine Transformations Chaos Green Lotus Cultivation Great Law.
Once this illusory Primordial status initially took form, it would be equivalent to naturally achieving the Supreme Dao Realm with his physical body.
At this moment, he slightly raised his hand, and saw a purple-yellow dragon-shaped immortal light pierce through vast stretches of the Chaos Long River from his palm, instantly shattering the Chaos Long River.
The tremendous sound echoed incessantly.
With a casual swing, this divine energy had already approached the Supreme Dao Realm.
At this time, relying solely on his physical strength, he could easily suppress a Three Transformations Dao Venerable.
Watching this scene, Zhang Jian's eyes held a hint of contemplation.
He had previously cultivated primarily with his primordial spirit.
He had rarely involved himself in physical strength.
Now that the Earth Emperor's true form had been achieved, it seemed he also needed to spend time developing various body-refining secret methods to fill the gaps.
To unleash the power of his physical body.
Besides the transformation of his physical body, the purple-yellow dragon-shaped immortal light coiling above his Dao Fruit Auspicious Clouds gradually became rounded and complete.
"It seems I still need to find another Chaos Spirit Lake!"
Zhang Jian estimated in his heart.
As long as he found another small Chaos Spirit Lake, his primordial spirit realm could naturally step into the Three Transformations Dao Venerable realm.
Seeing Zhang Jian awaken, the Sheji Immortal Monarch's voice of complaint immediately appeared in his ears.
"Your Majesty, you must uphold justice for me—this treasure was clearly discovered by me first, yet this despicable Dragon Yin Sword shamelessly stole it!"
The Sheji Immortal Monarch's indignant voice echoed in Zhang Jian's ears.
The illusory projection of the Chaos-Colored Great Cauldron appeared, within which a faint purple-yellow dragon shadow could be seen, its dragon face filled with indignation.
This time, it had suffered a great loss.
After refining that azure-blue treasure pearl, it only then knew the pearl's preciousness—it could cleanse impurities and aid spiritual growth.
Even refining just one-third of the pearl's fragments, it had spontaneously acquired an innate divine prohibition.
Zhang Jian, seeing this, coldly snorted.
"Sheji, you were born with spiritual wisdom early on, yet you still have the face to come complain to me? The Dragon Yin Sword, whether in material or spirituality, is inferior to you, yet now it has surpassed you, and you still suffered a great loss at its hands?"
Upon hearing this, the Sheji Immortal Monarch felt unconvinced; he very much wanted to say the opposing party was purely an offensive immortal treasure, focusing more on defense, and in treasure-seizing, the other side was more likely to gain the upper hand.
However, what Zhang Jian said was also true.
His attainment of the Dao predated the Dragon Yin Sword by far.
After rebuking the Sheji King Cauldron, Zhang Jian summoned the Dragon Yin Sword forth.
The purple-yellow dragon-shaped immortal light condensed before him into form, the sword light flickering like flames, as Zhang Jian lightly rebuked.
"Dragon Yin, Sheji is at least your senior—how dare you fight over food in your own pot? You two shall both be punished: enter my dantian's depths to bitterly cultivate for one elemental cycle, and do not leave without permission!"
Upon hearing this, the Sheji Immortal Monarch's face immediately fell.
The Dragon Yin Sword, however, did not care; its form turned into a stream of light and directly plunged into the depths of the dantian.
The Sheji Immortal Monarch gazed at this scene, then silently cursed 'flatterer,' yet could only hold his nose and enter the dantian's depths to cultivate.
Seeing the two natal spirit treasures obediently cultivating bitterly, Zhang Jian's face remained calm.
These two natal spirit treasures were also fortunate—they had actually absorbed the Chaos Strange Treasure nurtured beneath the Chaos Spirit Lake.
That Chaos Strange Treasure primarily possessed the essence of purification, and also contained a portion of Creation Divine Energy.
Even if he refined it himself, it would bring great benefits.
Let alone the two natal spirit treasures.
After refining this Chaos Strange Treasure, their foundations greatly improved, giving them hope to achieve postnatal supreme treasures.
After suppressing these two lively treasures, Zhang Jian left this Chaos Slow-Flow Region.
……
After leaving this Chaos Spirit Lake region, Zhang Jian's luck seemed to have run out; for a long time he could not find a slow-flow area of the Chaos Long River, and even mistakenly entered a Chaos Vortex Region, which resembled the Eye of Returning to the Abyss deep within the world's gatherings, possessing divine energy capable of shattering all heaven and earth.
Even Zhang Jian felt a tremendous threat.
If he fell into it, relying solely on the Earth Emperor's true form might not guarantee he could cross through.
Fortunately, relying on his strong deductive ability, he ultimately sensed danger at the critical moment and withdrew from within.
But after leaving this slow-flow region, Zhang Jian instead found a peculiar place.
Far off, within the murky yellow-black chaos currents, he actually saw vast mountains formed from condensed Chaos Divine Stone.
This mountain range stood within the Chaos Long River.
On both sides, the birch-like protrusions bulged out a large section, while the indented areas formed small slow-flow zones.
Deep within this slow-flow region, the innate Creation Green Lotus within his body stirred slightly, faintly emitting threads of yearning.
Seeing this, Zhang Jian suddenly understood—he knew he had likely found another good thing this time!
His form turned into a stream of light and he directly plunged into this slow-flow region.
However, before entering this place, he first used a secret technique to probe it thoroughly, then planted a special Chaos Mark here as a landmark to avoid 'getting lost'!
After the probe, Zhang Jian's eyebrows twitched slightly.
This slow-flow region did not contain Chaos Spirit Qi.
The primordial essence of chaos remained impure, and it contained faint traces of chaotic thunder energy, making it difficult to absorb and refine.
But he knew that the innate creation green lotus rarely went wrong.
He immediately directed his gaze toward the depths of the slow-flow region, approaching the direction of the chaos divine stone.
His figure transformed into a stream of light and submerged into it.
Yet as he entered the slow-flow region, he saw that this Xuanhuang-colored slow-flow area faintly glowed with a dark yellow hue, as if countless black tendrils were slowly stirring and wandering within.
Dense and numerous, it sent a chill down one's spine.
After entering the depths of the yellow-flow region, Zhang Jian noticed that many fine pores dotted the wall of the chaos divine stone deep within—these pores interconnected in all directions, and inside lay another space.
At this moment, the innate green lotus beneath his feet transmitted a faint sensation, and a cluster of high-density chaos spiritual essence appeared deep within the chaos divine stone.
Threads of chaos spiritual essence seeped out, extremely faint, yet they could not escape the perception of the chaos green lotus.
Zhang Jian glanced at the chaos divine stone before him, raised his hand, and lightly touched it—before him, the chaos divine stone was extraordinarily tough, and after being cleansed by chaos, it also possessed a unique function.
That is, to imprison the great Dao of heaven and earth.
Many powerful immortals and gods favor using this special chaos divine material—chaos divine stone—to suppress and seal immortals and gods.
The Three Emperors' Holy Court, the celestial prison of the Central Heavenly Court, all added chaos divine stone as the primary material.
Yet as he gazed upon the chaos divine stone before him, Zhang Jian's hand plunged into it like into tofu, crushing the chaos divine stone, and his form turned into flowing light as he entered the minute pores within.
Following the tiny pores, Zhang Jian transformed into a purple-yellow dragon-shaped immortal light, shooting straight into the depths of the pore, and within moments entered a special chaos space.
This was a rather vast chaos space, seemingly constructed entirely of chaos spiritual essence.
This was a self-nurtured unique chaos space, like the embryo of a universe.
Chaos blessed land?
Zhang Jian assumed a humanoid form, his gaze sweeping over the surroundings, his eyes revealing a hint of astonishment.
Immediately, he fixed his gaze straight ahead—only to see, at the bottom of the chaos space, a pool of amber-colored water, its depths radiating crimson divine light, within which surges of intense vitality burst forth.
"Chaos Stone Marrow!"
Gazing at these amber-like dense liquids, Zhang Jian's eyes brightened.
This chaos treasure, he recognized.
In the records of powerful cultivators in the Three Emperors' Holy Court and part of the Heavenly Court, it had been documented.
Such rare treasures had also appeared in the void of the myriad heavens.
It possessed a notable characteristic: its color was red, and it emitted a myriad of strange fragrances.
This object could enhance one's Dao cultivation, alter one's foundation and aptitude, and even cleanse one's fate.
It was a kind of near-universal chaos treasure, like a panacea.
Yet it was extremely scarce—hard to come by even a single drop.
A hint of a smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Jian's mouth—he knew that with this small pool of chaos stone marrow, stepping into the Third Transformation Dao Venerable realm was already as good as certain.
Perhaps there would even be some left to bring back.
But as he gazed upon the chaos stone marrow, he did not rush forward to absorb and refine it; instead, with a wave of his hand, he summoned an innate green lotus.
The innate green lotus descended and instantly landed upon the small pool, strands of green treasure light naturally enveloping the chaos stone marrow, swallowing and spitting it out, purifying it before handing it over to his true form for refinement.
As the innate green lotus refined it, suddenly, from the depths of the amber-colored chaos stone marrow, a fierce black light burst forth, breaking through space and shooting like a stream of light straight at Zhang Jian.
This thread of black light was soundless and traceless—even Zhang Jian's extraordinarily sensitive primordial spirit could only sense it at the moment it manifested.
Zhang Jian, with a wave of his hand, condensed a yellow earth-colored immortal light.
But in the next instant, the black light pierced through it—it seemed to possess a strange property, able to completely ignore certain profound rules of the heavenly Dao.
Zhang Jian's heart stirred slightly; instantly, a virtual image of a chaos-colored chaos green lotus blossomed violently from the void, blocking that black light.
Chaos-colored light flowed and shifted, and from within emerged a vast, inviolable divine power that naturally blocked the black light, the light spreading and pressing it down.
At that moment, within the Xuanhuang-colored light, a peculiar small black dot appeared—its form slender, only as long as a strand of hair, yet its slender body was covered in soft black fur, its mouthparts sharp and fine, seemingly extremely keen, and moreover endowed with devouring ability.
It looked extraordinarily ferocious.
"What a strange living being?"
At this moment, Zhang Jian could feel the chaos immortal light emanating from the chaos green lotus being continuously devoured by it.
They seemed capable of subsisting on primordial chaos essence.
But in Zhang Jian's perception, its origin was indeed weak.
Even weaker than a Taiyi Golden Immortal-level expert—it merely existed in a somewhat special way.
It seemed to be an aggregation of certain rules.
At the moment he suppressed this tiny living being, his gaze suddenly shifted—he saw that around the chaos space, countless sparse sounds transmitted, and instantly, dense black radiance erupted from the outer edge of the chaos space, madly rushing toward him.
Vast and boundless, endless and infinite.
Seeing this, Zhang Jian's expression remained unchanged; with a thought, the void instantly manifested a purple-yellow dragon-shaped fire light, which instantly formed a magnificent purple-green furnace, within which blazing green sacrificial fire burned, and the numerous black radiance fell into it—only to be instantly refined!
The more that came, the more that died.
Though these living beings were strange, ultimately their true forms were too weak.
Zhang Jian could feel streams of heavenly and earthly primordial essence, like gentle trickling streams, flowing into his body, sinking into the depths of the innate creation green lotus.
As the Earth Emperor's furnace burned, those beings, though mindless, still sensed an instinctive fear; after the main force was annihilated, the remnants quietly vanished into the chaos divine stone.
Seeing this, Zhang Jian gradually withdrew the Earth Emperor's furnace; at this moment, the innate creation green lotus, transformed into green treasure light, completely enveloped the chaos stone marrow below.
Threads of intense red essence again flowed from the innate green lotus into Zhang Jian's body.
The purified chaos stone marrow merged into his Dao fruit auspicious clouds, and purple-yellow dragon-shaped light condensed into form.
At this moment, Zhang Jian could clearly sense that his Dao immortal light was rapidly harmonizing, simultaneously aiding the perfection of the root Dao fruit.
At this moment, the root Dao fruit became ever more full, like a seed about to take root and sprout.
This enhancement of the Dao fruit's origin was very evident.
It was almost natural—he felt his root Dao fruit gradually breaking through a certain limit.
At the same time, his primordial spirit sensed a terrifying will of great annihilation silently locking onto him.
His sixth great annihilation tribulation has arrived!
