Cave Heaven Nurturing Divine Embryo

After the ninth rebirth, what remained was not ashes, nor a reborn Phoenix Spirit Body, but a... egg!

An egg about half a meter tall!

Phoenix Egg!

Zhou Tong, who had seen the Immortal Divine Phoenix Medicine's most recent memories, immediately recognized it. There was Phoenix mark on the eggshell, and the inside of the egg was nurtured by the Immortal Phoenix Treasure Art.

"No way..."

Zhou Tong found it hard to believe. Could it be that his spiritual body was about to Virtual to Real?

Although the highest stage of the Cave Heaven Nurturing Spirit can lead to ultimate Transcendence, combining the Heavenly Cave Realm and the Spirit Transformation Realm, it transforms from the Cave Heaven Nurturing Spirit into the Cave Heaven Nurturing Divine Embryo.

However, in the Chaotic Ancient Method, this step requires the use of the Power of Faith, somewhat similar to the Faith Body of the Undying Heavenly Emperor — the Undying Daoist; and also somewhat similar to the faith-based divine kingdom of the Willow God Chaotic Ancient Era.

"Have I really reached the realm of Cave Heaven Nurturing Divine Embryo?" Zhou Tong was somewhat doubtful. He examined the Phoenix Egg Phoenix Egg carefully and found that it was indeed very weak.

Any cultivator in the Sea of Wheels Realm could easily destroy this Phoenix Egg.

"Damn it..." Zhou Tong's face turned somewhat ugly.

He originally thought that his Phoenix Spirit Body could completely absorb the power of the Immortal Fire, thereby reaching the level of Quasi-Emperor or even Alternative Dao Attainment, which would also protect him in the future.

Unexpectedly, it turned into an egg with absolutely no fighting power...

Who knows how long it will take for this Phoenix Egg to hatch?

Moreover, he had previously thought that since the Phoenix Spirit Body had undergone so many rebirths, it must have an unimaginable understanding of the Immortal Phoenix Treasure Art. Once it stabilized, it could absorb these insights and make rapid progress.

But now that it's become Phoenix Egg, what's the point of any enlightenment?

Although Zhou Tong could sense that once the Phoenix Egg hatched, it would most likely transform into a Divine Fetus with extremely terrifying cultivation, heaven only knew how long it would take.

"I have to walk the road ahead on my own!" Zhou Tong had completely given up on this Phoenix Spirit Body.

He directly put the Phoenix Egg back into his Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings and placed it next to the Divine Spring, hoping to use the power of the Divine Spring to help it hatch sooner.

At this moment, four major entities— the White Tiger Divine Medicine, the Bodhi Tree, the Kirin Divine Medicine, and the Humanoid Divine Medicine— have gathered beside the Divine Spring, now joined by the Phoenix Egg. This Divine Spring probably won't last three hundred years.

"I need to find some time to get some Divine Spring or something. Maybe source energy can replace some of them!" Zhou Tong then moved some source energy to the side, and a strong source energy immediately emanated from it.

All the divine Medicine Capital were stretching out their bodies and absorbing the source energy; the Phoenix Egg also emitted a vague consciousness—it felt very comfortable.

"I feel that this Phoenix will definitely be difficult to hatch; but once it hatches, it will most likely be like those Perfected Sacred Spirit, directly undergoing the Great Emperor Tribulation!" Zhou Tong took one last look at the Phoenix Egg, lost in thought.

A normal Phoenix, after being born, also needs to cultivate step by step. But this is not a normal Phoenix; it is Divine Fetus nurtured by Zhou Tong, so its natural growth process is different from that of a normal Phoenix.

"Forget about it for now, let's think carefully about the path of Cave Heaven Nurturing Divine Embryo!" Zhou Tong sat down cross-legged and retrieved the information on the Chaotic Ancient Method from his memory once again.

These things are still the memories of the Desolate Heaven Emperor's Disciple-Grandchild. He is a practitioner of the Chaotic Ancient Method and has seen many records and experiments of his predecessors, including the "Cave Heaven Nurturing Divine Embryo" method, which is an extreme Transcendence method.

"Nurturing Cave Heaven Nurturing Divine Embryo, forming a cocoon to await rebirth... This is an incredibly mysterious method that utilizes the power of sacrifice, somewhat similar to the ' Sacrificial Spirit ' of the Chaotic Ancient Era. It involves offering the spirit nurtured in one's own Heavenly Cave as a Sacrificial Spirit, ultimately transforming it into Divine Fetus, into a true life form... It is truly a terrifying method!"

Zhou Tong studied it carefully and gained a general understanding of this method.

But that was only a few, because the grand-disciple of the Desolate Heaven Emperor did not follow this path. He followed the same path as the Desolate Heaven Emperor, transforming all Ten Heavenly Caves Heavenly Cave into the same size and then connecting them into one.

Because this path was traversed by the Desolate Heaven Emperor, and he also received guidance from the Desolate Heaven Emperor, walking this path is relatively easy and safe.

"However, it's a bit strange. Could that Immortal Fire also be used as 'sacrificial power' to transform my spiritual body into Divine Fetus?" Zhou Tong was puzzled, but he couldn't figure it out.

Could this be a coincidence?

Or perhaps it's the power of the Phoenix Blood Red Gold Immortal Gold Profound Meaning's profound mystery?

"The Power of Faith is indeed incredibly mysterious... It seems I need to study it. Perhaps it can transform the other spiritual bodies in my Heavenly Cave into Divine Fetus? And resurrect the Ten Fiends in my Heavenly Cave world?"

"The Power of Faith... that's easy to deal with!"

Zhou Tong almost subconsciously looked at his Bodhi Tree.

"The Reincarnation Mirror, it's up to you now!" Zhou Tong said calmly.

The Reincarnation Mirror shone on the Bodhi Tree and soon revealed the image of a Buddha, Shakyamuni.

After advancing to the Dragon Transformation Realm, Zhou Tong was able to see over a thousand years in a single use of the Reincarnation Mirror. In that time, Zhou Tong had enough time to find what he wanted.

Soon, he saw the scene of Shakyamuni preaching and spreading the Dharma.

"The Vedic Scripture ... So this is the scripture created by the Quasi-Emperor Shakyamuni himself!" Zhou Tong thought to himself, but unfortunately, he did not see the key to the Power of Faith.

To be precise, Shakyamuni also had a profound understanding of the Power of Faith, but his method of using the Power of Faith was not the kind that Zhou Tong wanted.

"Previous life!"

Zhou Tong didn't wait long and continued to look at the Bodhi Tree's previous incarnation.

Soon, another great Buddha appeared before Zhou Tong. He resembled Shakyamuni, but his aura was different. This Buddha's path was somewhat different from Shakyamuni's.

Continuing to browse, Zhou Tong quickly found what he was looking for.

That is the Amitabha Mida Scripture, the imperial scripture of the Amitabha Great Emperor, and the method of Power of Faith that Zhou Tong particularly desired.

"The Power of Faith... So that's it! This is the Power of Faith!" Zhou Tong didn't try to understand these things for the time being, but instead recorded them all down so he could study them slowly in the future.

This is Amitabha Buddha's understanding of the Power of Faith. In terms of the Power of Faith, Amitabha Buddha is undoubtedly ahead of all the Great Emperor; these insights are invaluable.

Especially the most crucial aspect, using the Power of Faith to condense the Buddha's image or even his future form, is the method of Power of Faith that Zhou Tong most wants to see.

Combining these factors, the path of Cave Heaven Nurturing Divine Embryo might become viable.

"Now that I've seen it, let's go back to the previous Lifetime!" Zhou Tong quickly flipped forward again, rolling through Lifetime.

This Lifetime seems ordinary; the person the Bodhi Tree follows in this Lifetime is merely a relatively ordinary Quasi-Emperor.

An old fellow who barely managed to advance to the Quasi-Emperor level without finding his own path.

"So he was a descendant of the Taiyin Cult from countless ages ago... This Lifetime has been worthwhile, at least he obtained the complete ' Taiyin True Scripture '..."

"Let's look further ahead! I remember that the Immortal Divine Medicine of the Dao De Tianzun is also the Bodhi Tree. Perhaps we can see the complete Dao Scripture? Perhaps we can see the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones?" Zhou Tong recovered his divine power and once again used the Reincarnation Mirror to flip through the memories of the Bodhi Tree.

In this Lifetime, I can't see anyone at all!

Look ahead!

But still, there was no one there; only the final scene of someone taking the essence...

Look ahead!

But still no one appeared; only the final scene of someone taking the essence remained...

"Holy crap... I almost forgot about the Bodhi Tree. As long as you take its essence, it will be reborn! My god, how many lifetimes has this thing spent in such a boring way..." Zhou Tong felt like he was about to collapse.

With each previous Lifetime, his divine power was consumed significantly more; if he continued looking, he would definitely see nothing at all; he might not even last until the Lifetime when the Dao De Tianzun Venerable took charge of the Bodhi Tree ...

I'm sure some people will say I wrote nonsense or made things up after the last chapter.

In fact, in Chapter 850 of Shrouding the Heavens, the Big Black Dog once mentioned a way to forge Imperial Weapon without Great Emperor. That is, to have Ye Fan undergo the strongest Heavenly Tribulation with countless Saint Imprint, and then let the quantitative change lead to the qualitative change, so that the Heavenly Tribulation would continue to upgrade, and finally use the Heavenly Tribulation to forge Imperial Weapon.

This actually illustrates that it is not impossible to forge weapons beyond their grade, as long as the conditions are met.

In my personal opinion, it is reasonable for the Great Sage Weapon to be forged by the resonance of the Phoenix Blood Red Gold Profound Meaning, the flames of the Immortal Phoenix, and the Immortal Phoenix Treasure Art.

Because the one who truly made the move wasn't the protagonist with low cultivation; the protagonist was merely a medium. The real power came from the Immortal Fire. Just like what the Black Emperor suggested to Ye Fan, it wasn't Ye Fan who forged the Imperial Weapon, but the Heavenly Tribulation.
