Chapter 884: Reassembly! Peak of Transcendent Deity

Yan Buji sat cross‑legged deep within the cave dwelling, his golden eyes flickering with thoughtful light in the darkness.

He slowly raised his right hand, strands of golden essence force swirling at his fingertips, sometimes coalescing into a sharp sword aura, other times turning into gentle spiritual mist.

"Spiritual energy... law... essence..."

He murmured the three keywords softly, his fingers unconsciously tracing a subtle pattern in the air. Suddenly, his pupils contracted, as if he had grasped a key point.

"Wait!" Yan Buji sprang to his feet, "If spiritual energy is the most fundamental energy in heaven and earth, and law is the rule that shapes heaven and earth, then essence is..."

His voice abruptly stopped, a startling idea flashing in his mind.

Yan Buji immediately resumed his cross‑legged posture, his hands forming a peculiar magical seal. This time, he no longer simply absorbed spiritual energy or comprehended law, but attempted to guide both into his body simultaneously.

"Use spiritual energy as the guide, law as the bridge, to reshape essence!"

With his low shout, the spiritual energy in the cave dwelling suddenly surged violently. Even more astonishing, fine law patterns began to appear within that spiritual energy, as if forced into manifestation by some power.

"It's feasible! Logically, when a cultivator practices, they either circulate techniques to boost magical power intensity, thereby breaking through realms; comprehension is another step of cultivation. Having only a realm without Dao Mark support yields no strength; having only Dao Mark without magical power cannot advance the cultivator further!"

"However, the power and realm of the Essence Method differ from other cultivators; its power derives from the fusion of Immortal Essence and magical power, while its realm must be manifested through the laws it carries. This means the operation of the Essence Method is the convergence of essence and law, also requiring the support of essence power! I could even employ the Nine-turn Technique..."

Yan Buji's internal essence force began to operate autonomously, forming a golden light membrane on his body surface. This membrane acted like a sieve, separating the incoming spiritual energy and law! The absorbed spiritual energy, continuously dispersed and reassembled through the Nine-turn Technique, after completing the nine‑disperse nine‑refine within Yan Buji's body, was directly transformed into essence force!

Law Fragments were then introduced into each essence for sedimentation.

"Indeed!" Yan Buji's eyes flashed with brilliance, "There truly exists a transmutative relationship among the three! Moreover, through the dispersal‑reconstruction of the Nine-turn Technique, the spiritual energy further condenses like a spiritual molt; the high‑concentration spiritual energy aligns better with my essence! It yields more essence force than the usual accumulation from absorbing spiritual energy!"

Like a Dao Mark, a Dao Mark is the power formed from a cultivator's comprehension of the Great Dao law in this realm; through a Dao Mark one can mobilize a cultivator to harness the law power of heaven and earth!

Magical power or Immortal Essence is the prerequisite for mobilizing law!

But unlike the Essence Method of Yan Buji: Yan Buji can, while calling forth external Dao Marks, also absorb those external Dao Marks into his internal essence carrier, thereby...

"Even in a place completely devoid of law, I can still exert my original power through my own law power!" Yan Buji's eyes brightened greatly.

Realizing this, Yan Buji continued his cultivation.

He discovered an astonishing shortcut: by simultaneously absorbing spiritual energy and law, he could rapidly replenish essence force and accelerate the metamorphosis of essence. This cultivation method's efficiency increased by more than a hundredfold compared to before!

But just as Yan Buji was ecstatic, a mutation abruptly arose.

The mutant Dao Mark within his body suddenly quivered violently, his left eye instantly turning into chaos. Worse, the law fragments just introduced into his essence began spontaneously converging toward the mutant Dao Mark!

"Bad!" Yan Buji was startled, hurriedly mobilizing all his spirit to suppress the Mutant Force.

But it was already too late; the mutant Dao Mark had absorbed a large amount of Law Fragments and began undergoing bizarre changes. The previously chaotic left eye now displayed clear law patterns, and those patterns spread rapidly, covering half his body in an instant.

"Damn it!" Yan Buji clenched his teeth, fully channeling essence force to counter the mutation.

At this critical moment, he suddenly noticed an astonishing phenomenon: the law fragments absorbed by the mutant Dao Mark were reorganizing in an unprecedented manner! This reorganization was a hundred times more exquisite than his own comprehension!

"This is..." Yan Buji was stunned, then suddenly realized: "So the Mutant Force itself is the most efficient law reorganizer!"

A crazy idea formed in his mind.

Yan Buji suddenly relaxed his resistance, instead actively guiding more law fragments into the mutant Dao Mark. This act was tantamount to playing with fire, yet the payoff was astonishing!

The law reorganized by the mutant Dao Mark could perfectly merge into the essence, and its efficiency was frighteningly high!

"Hahaha!" Yan Buji couldn't help laughing: "So this is the fastest cultivation method!"

He discovered the ultimate shortcut for the Essence Method: using the mutant Dao Mark to reorganize law, then channeling the reorganized law into the essence; absorbing spiritual energy and employing the dispersal‑reconstruction property of the Nine-turn Technique to convert spiritual energy into direct invocation, concentrating it without generating magical power, thereby aligning with the essence!

Thus, the cultivation speed surpassed traditional methods by more than a thousandfold!

Of course, this cultivation method is extremely dangerous. A slight misstep could lead to being completely devoured by the Mutant Force. Yet Yan Buji could no longer afford such concerns; he urgently needed to boost his strength quickly to confront the threats lurking in the shadows.

As his cultivation deepened, Yan Buji used the massive Spiritual Stones in his hand to practice the Essence Method, gradually mastering a subtle balance: he could maximize the mutant Dao Mark's reorganization ability without being backfired by it.

His strength began to rise at an astonishing rate, and the metamorphosis of his internal primordial essence changed daily.

Four years later, when Yan Buji opened his eyes again, his aura had undergone an earth‑shattering transformation.

With every gesture, the surrounding cosmic laws trembled. More astonishing, his left eye, though still chaotic, now bore flowing law patterns that formed a strange balance with the golden radiance of his right eye.

Because his internal essence now bore law, Yan Buji's flesh became more attuned to a certain type of spiritual energy.

Yan Buji was not greedy; he chose the Universal Dao law as the carrier for his essence, and after confirming his flesh was sound, he then infused other laws into his internal essence.

But what kind of law should the primordial essence best carry? Perhaps that is one's destined Great Dao.

"Peak of Transcendent Deity..." Yan Buji felt the surging power within, a confident smile curling his lips, "It's time to go out for a walk."

He knew he had embarked on an unprecedented cultivation path. This road was fraught with danger, yet brimming with infinite possibilities.
