Chapter 7: Heavenly Merit Continuously Descend, Red Cloud in Crisis, Achieving Golden Immortal!
"What? Heaven has bestowed the heavenly merit again?"
In Kunlun Mountain, Taiqing Laozi, immersed in contemplating the primordial purple energy within his mind, seeking an opportunity to attain enlightenment, suddenly felt a sense of heavenly merit and looked towards Shouyang Mountain. He saw an endless expanse of Heavenly Merit, more than ten times greater than before.
This was simply unbelievable!
In less than ten thousand years, Heaven had bestowed merit twice, both times due to the weak human race!
Could it be that this weak race truly held some secret?
However, after further deduction, Taiqing Laozi still came up empty-handed. For a moment, a complex emotion crossed his face, and the depression he had previously felt surged again, as if this opportunity for Heaven's merit was meant to be related to him.
"Such a vast amount of Heavenly Merit! This!"
In the west, two figures diligently repaired the earth's spiritual veins. These two figures were, of course, Zhunti and Jieyin. During the Dao-Demon War, the Demon Ancestor Rāhu pulled the ancestral veins of the prehistoric western lands, causing them to explode and transform the entire prehistoric western region into a barren wasteland. Born in the Western Realm, they had a lifelong wish to restore the West and revitalize Western land.
However, they had not yet attained sainthood, and their restoration efforts were but a drop in the ocean compared to the Western realm.
For a moment, gazing at the vast expanse of Heavenly Merit suspended above Mount Shouyang, Zhunti and Jieyin's faces were filled with envy.
"Oh?"
A figure lazily reclining on a jade bed in the Nuwa Palace looked on.
A ripple of emotion crossed her beautiful face as she gazed at the boundless Heavenly Merit above Mount Shouyang, but she quickly averted her gaze.
"Has the human race gained merit again?"
In the Heavenly Palace, Dijun and Taiyi were equally surprised.
But at this moment, they were drawn to something even more crucial: the primordial purple energy in Hongyun's hand.
This was the foundation of the Great Dao. Not just them, but half of the great masters of the prehistoric world had already gathered outside Wuzhuangguan.
Were it not for Zhenyuanzi's Hunyuan Ancestral Vein Formation, they would have rushed in long ago.
However, as the saying goes, "One can hear the Dao in the morning and die in the evening," with the opportunity to attain enlightenment before them, it was only a matter of time before Hongyun left Wuzhuangguan.
"Could this human race possibly hold some secret?"
"Why are they gaining merits so often?"
"The human race has retreated from the prehistoric world, their secrets obscure, and even basic information cannot be deduced."
Suddenly, the six saints of the prehistoric world and many other great masters were all alarmed, some even wanting to journey to the human race to investigate.
However, with Xuantian's announcement to the prehistoric world, the human race retreated, and with innate restrictions blocking the secrets, even their location was difficult to locate. How could they possibly explore?
Buzz!
Not to mention the tremors of the prehistoric world, an endless stream of Heavenly Dao Merit descended from the skies above Shouyang Mountain. Thirty percent of this flowed into the Golden Merit Wheel behind Xuantian's head, while seventy percent showered down upon the human race.
However, again same as before, seventy percent of Heavenly Dao Merit that had showered upon the human race also surfaced above Xuantian's head, effectively granting Xuantian direct possession of 100% of Heavenly Dao Merit. Instantly, as this boundless Heavenly Dao Merit descended, the two Golden Merit Wheels behind his head roared, condensing towards a higher level.
Two Golden Merit Wheels!
Three Golden Merit Wheels!
Four Golden Merit Wheels!
"Whoosh!"
Xuantian slowly opened his eyes. Behind his head, a full four Golden Merit Wheels erupted in brilliant golden light, seemingly illuminating the entire blessed land. Enveloped in this golden light, Xuantian felt his spirit become utterly lucid. The laws of heaven and earth seemed directly tangible before his very eyes. His inner luck surged, bringing with it countless benefits beyond words.
"Ten times the Heavenly Dao Merit from before is barely enough to condense two more Golden Wheels of Merit!"
Xuantian sighed slightly but soon calmed down. As the future protagonists of the universe, the human race naturally had ample opportunities to manipulate the merit and fortune.
Currently, human race was weak, and the Heavenly Dao's bestowal of merit was limited.
In the future, when humanity flourished and multiplied, the benefits of gaining Heavenly Dao Merit would naturally far surpass those of today.
"This cultivation method is called the Minor Divine Power of Eating Heaven. You must study and cultivate it alongside the fundamental cultivation methods without slacking off!"
Xuantian passed down the Minor Divine Power of Eating Heaven, a treasured divine power that countless beings would diligently seek to comprehend.
The once obscure Minor Divine Power, with the entire race collaborating to comprehend it, suddenly became incredibly simple, transforming to a higher level at an astonishing rate.
"Next, I'll retreat and cultivate, striving with all my might to ascend to the Golden Immortal realm!"
Xuantian muttered. While it's said that Daluo Golden Immortals are everywhere in the prehistoric world, and Taiyi Golden Immortals are no match for dogs, that's an exaggeration. The prehistoric world is so vast that even a Profound Immortal would struggle to travel the entirety of it before his lifespan expires.
Daluo Golden Immortals number only a few thousand, a mere drop in the ocean across the entire prehistoric world.
A Golden Immortal, within a radius of a billion miles, is considered a minor overlord. A tribe with a Golden Immortal master would be considered a medium-sized tribe in the prehistoric world!
Most importantly, he possessed an innate spiritual treasure. Once he achieved Golden Immortal status, he could fully refine it and unleash its full power.
Then, as he journeyed through the prehistoric world, searching for a medium-sized blessed land, he would be able to battle even a perfected Golden Immortal!
With this thought, Xuantian ceased his hesitation and immersed himself in cultivation. As he unleashed his Heaven-Eating Divine Ability, the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth within a radius of thousands of miles transformed into a vortex, pouring into his body at an astonishing rate.
Combined with his primary innate divine foundation, the fourth-level Golden Wheel of Merit, and the enhanced cultivation of his entire clan, his cultivation speed had reached an unimaginable pace.
Thousands of years later,
Buzz!
A brilliant white light erupted from his body, and Xuantian, with a single thrust, finally broke through the final barrier in his comprehension of the Yang Gold Law.
A terrifying sharpness emanated from him, as if cleaving everything.
Having mastered the Yang Gold Law, he successfully ascended to the Golden Immortal realm, emanating a faint aura of immortality.
"Gold" means immortality.
Golden Immortals, having mastered the laws of the prehistoric universe, possess an infinite lifespan. Barring any calamity, they would survive even after countless calamities!
Furthermore, a hazy white light lingered around him, emitting the luster of a spiritual treasure.
It turned out that with the passing down of the fundamental body-refining method of the human race, countless humans practiced it, and coupled with the many spiritual fruit resources in the small-blessed land, his body refining also underwent a transformation.
The fundamental body-refining method was advanced to the early stage of the third level, equivalent to the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm!
Physical cultivation consumes far more resources than the soul, but once promoted, it is invincible in the same realm!
Of the two dominant races in the prehistoric world, why can the witch clan suppress the demon clan with innate magical powers and even treat the demon clan, a fellow dominant race, as food?
It is because their physical bodies are too terrifying, and demon clans of the same realm are simply unable to do anything to them.
At this time, even if Xuantian does not use the spiritual energy to fight, he can fight against the powerful people who have reached the perfection of the Golden Immortal Realm with just his physical body!
[Ding Dong, the number of human race detected has reached 5 million, and the reward is the Minor Magical Power - Wind Control]
Just as Xuantian sensed his own transformation, a prompt sounded, which shocked him again.
