Chapter 650: Breakthrough to the Extreme Great Immortal Realm
Chapter 650: Breakthrough to the Extreme Great Immortal Realm
【You have devoted 10 billion years of lifespan into cultivating the Celestial Emperor's Orb, evolving and refining it.】
【After cultivating the Celestial Emperor's Orb for 100 million years, your comprehension of the Dao of Cause and Effect has improved.】
【With 1 billion years of cultivation, your understanding of the Dao of Reality and Illusion has deepened.】
【Fifty billion years of cultivation with the Celestial Emperor's Orb has awakened even greater power within it.】
...
Countless prompts appeared before Gu An's eyes, and the entire 10 billion years of lifespan did not bring about a transformation in the Celestial Emperor's Orb.
Gu An was not surprised; this was an incredibly powerful ability that even the Heavenly Court feared.
He continued to invest his lifespan, still at the rate of 10 billion years at a time.
Failure!
Another 10 billion years! Gu An still had over 40,000 billion years of lifespan left, so 10 billion years was not a significant amount for him.
Repeated failures led to repeated investments of lifespan.
When the invested lifespan exceeded 100 billion years, a subtle change occurred in Gu An's eyes.
He waited until the Celestial Emperor's Orb advanced before he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
In total, 1,800 billion years of lifespan were consumed, and the Celestial Emperor's Orb was promoted to the Absolute Void Orb.
Countless memories flooded Gu An's mind, causing him to close his eyes and immerse himself in the experience. It was as if the vast knowledge of 3,000 Great Daos was pouring into his mind, and even a Great Immortal like him, who had reached the pinnacle of the Mystical True Great Immortal Realm, was engulfed in chaos.
The Absolute Void Orb could not only reverse reality and illusion but also create them, making it an almost omnipotent eye. Everything it created would disappear as the caster's spiritual power was exhausted.
In battle, it could turn an opponent's abilities and spells into nothingness and even cause their spiritual power to vanish.
This was not only a suppression of the weak but also had a certain restraining effect on those with higher cultivation.
The disturbance caused by the Absolute Void Orb far exceeded that of the previous one. The Endless Dao Mountain was still ravaged by fierce winds, and in the distance, figures began to appear on the Dao Mountains, even on the one next to Gu An. A figure stood atop the summit, enveloped in gray mist, without revealing its true form.
This gray mist figure gazed up at the dark celestial canopy, seemingly searching for the source of the anomaly, unaware that the origin was on the Dao Mountain beside him.
The two Dao Mountains were connected, but the distance between their peaks was tens of thousands of miles, an insurmountable distance for mortals in a lifetime. However, for the gray mist figure, it was just a step away.
Time passed quickly.
Half an hour later...
Gu An opened his eyes, and his purple irises turned crimson, making him appear even more intimidating.
His Absolute Void Orb first fell upon the gray mist figure on the distant mountain peak.
Despite the close distance, Gu An could not use his lifespan to probe the figure; it seemed that some power was protecting the cultivators in this realm.
However, even without lifespan probing, Gu An could sense the other's cultivation.
Late-stage of the Open Heaven Great Immortal Realm! The Open Heaven Great Immortal could cultivate in the Endless Dao Mountain, which suddenly gave Gu An an idea.
After the breakthrough, should he stay and observe for a while? Let's reach the next realm first and see how powerful it is!
Gu An reopened his attribute panel, and aside from the lifespan evolution consumption, the Lifespan Barrier had also been consuming his lifespan. He now had over 45,000 billion years of lifespan remaining.
He began to invest his lifespan into cultivating.
【You have cultivated the absorption of Qi for 2 billion years. With the profound mastery of the Ten Thousand Dao Extinction Skill, you forcefully break through to the Extreme Great Immortal Realm. As you begin to undergo tribulations, you fail to endure the Boundless Heaven Void Great Tribulation, and the tribulation is unsuccessful.】
【You have cultivated the absorption of Qi for 4 billion years. With the profound mastery of the Ten Thousand Dao Extinction Skill, you forcefully break through to the Extreme Great Immortal Realm. As you begin to undergo tribulations, you fail to endure the Boundless Heaven Void Great Tribulation, and the tribulation is unsuccessful.】
...
It actually takes 2 billion years to undergo tribulations once! And this is after Gu An has already improved his Dao techniques and physique.
Gu An suddenly felt that reaching the perfect state of the next Great Realm would be extremely difficult this time.
Regardless, let's reach this so-called Extreme Great Immortal Realm first! After breaking through only five times in 10 billion years, Gu An directly invested 100 billion years of lifespan.
Prompts kept popping up, all indicating failure.
After fifty attempts, each ended in failure.
Gu An remained focused and undeterred.
A thousand million years later, another thousand million years passed!
Failure!
Failure!
Failure!
Gu An's eyes, filled with an extraordinary and terrifying gaze, flickered with the Void Pupil.
The Dao anomalies on the endless Dao Mountain began to weaken, and the figures standing on the peaks gradually disappeared, but a group of them remained, observing.
The gray-robed figure on the adjacent Dao Mountain did not vanish; he looked around, his gaze never resting on the Dao Mountain where Gu An stood.
Gu An no longer paid attention to him, keeping his eyes fixed on the prompts.
After failing to pass the tribulation even with a lifespan of ten thousand million years, he realized the severity of the problem.
Was it really this difficult to break through to the Daoji Da Luo Immortal?
The latest chapter of Liu Jiu Ba Xiaoshuo is now available!
Or was the Wu Liang Tian Xu Great Tribulation even more formidable than he had imagined?
Gu An pondered as he continued to pour his lifespan into the tribulation.
However, after another million years of lifespan, there was still no sign of success.
He frowned slightly and continued.
After a while, he finally succeeded in breaking through!
[You cultivated the Qi of absorption for 58 billion years. With the profound cultivation of the Great Dao Extinction, you forcefully charged towards the Daoji Da Luo Immortal Realm. You endured the Wu Liang Tian Xu Great Tribulation and successfully passed the tribulation. Your cultivation has advanced to the initial stage of the Daoji Da Luo Immortal Realm.]
[You cultivated the Qi of absorption for 1 billion years. Your cultivation has improved.]
As the prompt appeared, the Life Span Barrier moved once more, and a vast amount of Dao essence flooded over Gu An, immersing him in the radiant light of the Great Dao.
Just breaking through to the initial stage had cost Gu An 23,000 million years of his lifespan!
He dared not continue to break through further, as he needed to preserve some of his lifespan for the Life Span Barrier.
Let's reach the Daoji Da Luo Immortal first!
Boom!
A startling thunderclap suddenly rumbled in the dark celestial canopy, like a colossal celestial dragon coiled in the sky, larger than any mountain ridge in the heavens. This commotion startled the cultivators who were cultivating within the Dao Mountains.
In Gu An's perception, cultivators' auras appeared one after another, like the night sky illuminated, revealing countless stars.
He was astonished.
How many powerful beings were hidden here?
The weakest aura he sensed belonged to a Heng Tian Golden Immortal, and among them, the most numerous were the Tai Qing Golden Immortals. There were even several auras that made his heart tremble with fear.
These were undoubtedly Daoji Da Luo Immortals!
Could this endless Dao Mountain be some kind of enlightenment sacred land?
Gu An pondered, and after confirming that no one had noticed him on his Dao Mountain, his consciousness sank into his inherited memories.
The Daoji Da Luo Immortal, the pinnacle of the Da Luo Dao Guo, was the limit that all living beings could reach. To become stronger beyond this point, one could no longer rely on cultivation or enlightenment but had to create and develop their own Great Dao.
In a sense, the Daoji Da Luo Immortal was the true end of the Immortal Dao.
Beyond this, it was no longer the Immortal Dao but the Great Dao itself!
Gu An's Da Luo Dao Guo began to imprint Daoji patterns, each containing unerasable profound mysteries.
As long as the Daoji patterns remained, the Daoji Da Luo Immortal would not fall. Moreover, these patterns did not only exist on the Dao Guo but were woven into the infinite heavens and earth. Even if the Da Luo Dao Guo were destroyed, they could still be resurrected, but after resurrection, there would be one less Daoji pattern on the Da Luo Dao Guo.
There were a total of forty-nine Daoji patterns, meaning the Daoji Da Luo Immortal could be resurrected forty-nine times, even if their soul was scattered and their spirit dispersed.
With the Daoji patterns, the Daoji Da Luo Immortal was almost impossible to kill. To slay a Daoji Da Luo Immortal completely, eradicating both their physical body and spiritual consciousness, was already extremely difficult. But even after achieving this, they could still be resurrected, leaving their opponents in a state of utter despair.
Not only that, but Gu An's cultivation was also transforming, evolving towards the limit of Immortal strength.
During this process, his innate divine ability, the Longevity Mantra, was also undergoing a qualitative change.
