Yang God
Yang Xuanwu, who was already immersed in enlightenment, did not hear the burly man Yang Kun's incessant cursing.
When his palm touched the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele, his soul was pulled by some mysterious force and disappeared into a boundless and dazzling starry Starry Sky.
As far as the eye could see, countless stars hung high in the sky, each representing a Martial Dao Divine Ability. Yang Xuanwu observed for a moment, his eyes flashing, and muttered to himself, "One star, one Apertures; one acupoint, one Divine Ability; 129,600 Divine Abilities coexisting... If one could truly reach this level, even ordinary Immortals and Gods would be no match for him."
At this moment, boundless ambition arose in Yang Xuanwu's heart. He saw the infinite potential of Martial Dao in the starry sky, and his Dao heart became even more firm and unwavering.
Buzz!!
The stars trembled, and streaks of starlight fell, spreading out beneath Yang Xuanwu's feet. The celestial sounds, far more magnificent than before, echoed in his mind like the grandest bells. Every moment, all sorts of Martial Dao insights surged into his heart.
Yang Xuanwu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly focused his attention to begin comprehending the Dao.
In his mind, the various phantoms on the Martial Practice Ground became more solid, as if they could transform into real beings and leap out at any moment.
Countless figures simultaneously practiced martial arts, and various Martial Dao essences surged forth like a tide. Yang Xuanwu could feel that his Immortal-Martial Path was being continuously broadened, solidified, and made increasingly powerful under the efforts of these figures.
Time passed quietly in this state of enlightenment. After an unknown amount of time, Yang Xuanwu, who was advancing on the Martial Dao Star Road, suddenly stopped and opened his eyes.
In his pupils, two furnaces burned fiercely, using the essence of Martial Dao as fuel to temper his Immortal-Martial Path and his Martial Dao Will.
As more and more Martial Dao principles flooded into his mind, Yang Xuanwu's Martial Dao Will will became increasingly powerful, transforming from abstract to concrete, forming the internal organs, bones, meridians, and other bodily structures from the inside out.
Slowly, a tiny figure, exactly like him, took shape in the Battle Intent Furnace.
With a loud bang, the little man leaped up, opened the furnace lid, flames still burning on his body, and plunged into his Sea of Consciousness, merging with his soul.
Pain! Excruciating pain!
This feeling was like having a scorching sun forcibly inserted into his mind, as if his brain was being roasted and boiling. The immense pain contained within was almost unbearable even for someone as strong-willed as Yang Xuanwu, and beads of cold sweat slid down his forehead.
However, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
As time passed, the little figure formed by the Martial Dao Will completely merged with the soul, and Yang Xuanwu's Sea of Consciousness became a golden Ocean.
Endless radiance rippled within it, and the soul, which should have been transparent, turned into pure gold, sitting cross-legged in the air, facing the immortal Immortal Dao Primordial Spirit formed at the Spirit Transformation Realm.
"This is... Pure Yang soul, achieving the Yang God?" Yang Xuanwu was filled with doubt and uncertainty, somewhat hesitant to confirm.
According to the "Martial Scripture", in the Yang God Realm, the Martial Dao Will from the abstract to the concrete, igniting the purest Pure Yang Fire, which burns away the impurities in the soul, allowing the soul to reach the Pure Yang realm, achieving Spirit-Flesh Unity, and completely controlling the Fleshly Body.
Then, his physical body Martial Dao Divine Ability, and every move he made was capable of destroying the heavens and the earth, possessing exceptionally terrifying combat power.
My current situation is very similar to the first two steps of breaking through to the Yang God.
"Then all I have left is the Spirit-Flesh Unity, control of the Fleshly Body, and the Martial Dao Divine Ability within it, thereby achieving the Yang God Realm?" Yang Xuanwu muttered to himself.
But soon, he shook his head. "No, my physical body is still at the Aperture Opening Realm, not yet at the Aperture Unification Acupoints stage. Without the power of the Apertures integrated into one, my physical body is flawed. Once the Yang God enters my body, it will inevitably suppress my physical body. If the difference between the two is too great, I might even explode and die."
"And..."
Yang Xuanwu shifted his gaze to the Immortal Dao Primordial Spirit Martial Dao Yang God in his Sea of Consciousness, a strange look appearing in his eyes. "I not only have Yang God, but also Primordial Spirit. The Yang God is fused with the Fleshly Body, so what happens to the Primordial Spirit? Does it merge with it, or does it remain independent...?"
"If they merge together, wouldn't that be equivalent to embarking entirely on the Martial Dao Path?"
My foundation lies in the Immortal Dao; I wonder what consequences this will bring...
Yang Xuanwu closed his eyes, pondering deeply. Suddenly, a solemn expression flashed across his face, and he muttered to himself, "No, my spiritual sense is warning me that if I do this, disaster will surely befall me. Moreover, the Immortal-Martial Path has already been chosen; I cannot abandon it halfway..."
Thinking of this, a resolute look appeared in Yang Xuanwu's eyes, "Continue to walk the Immortal-Martial Path, open as many Apertures as possible, then Aperture Unification, and then use the Martial Dao Yang God to fuse with the Fleshly Body, so that the Spirit-Flesh Unity, Fleshly Body Martial Dao Divine Ability."
The Immortal Dao Primordial Spirit is preserved and resides in the Sea of Consciousness. When one reaches the Sage Manifestation Realm, the Primordial Spirit Dharma Form.
The Yang God governs the internal, while the Dharma Form governs the external. With the unity of inner and outer, the initial stages of the Immortal-Martial Path are achieved, granting combat power surpassing even that of other cultivators of the same level, including those at the Manifestation Sage Manifestation and Yang God stages!
Thus, Yang Xuanwu's Immortal-Martial Path took another big step forward.
The fog before his eyes dissipated, and a surge of joy welled up in his heart. He involuntarily opened his eyes and found that he had unknowingly arrived at the deepest part of the Martial Dao Star Road.
A vast, boundless, earthy-yellow star came into view, slowly rotating and reflecting rays of starlight as heavy as towering mountains.
No Martial Dao star dared to approach, yet Yang Xuanwu felt no pressure whatsoever. A thought struck him, realizing this was a reward for traversing the Martial Dao Star Road.
"This star must represent one of the seven great Martial Dao Divine Abilities left behind by the Martial Ancestor, right?" Yang Xuanwu's eyes gleamed with excitement. The more he learned about the Martial Ancestor's deeds, the more he admired him. Just how powerful must the Divine Ability abilities left behind by such a supreme figure be?
Without hesitation, Yang Xuanwu plunged headfirst into the earthen-yellow stars before him.
