The Bronze Bottle and the drifting letters were all thrown aside. Wang Xuan was too busy, his mind was focused on the Dao-imperialized, and he was so engrossed in it that he lost track of time.

He lost himself in the world, and when he looked up, he saw only a vast universe, with a brilliant galaxy swirling around him.

That's his skull.

Wang Xuan's primordial spirit took form, sat quietly within his body, and looked up at the sky. His skull shone brightly, the starry sky was boundless, and profound Daoist charm appeared, with flowing patterns.

The skull resembles a dome, with Imperial Daoized texture, forming a vast river.

As for his body, there was no light, no trace of the Imperial Daoized texture spreading out, like a pitch-black universe, full of unknowns.

At this moment, at the very center of his skull, a pattern shone brightest. It was the birth of his own unique Dao-imperialized Mark, which was different from the forms recorded in many scriptures.

This is a process, not something that can be completed in an instant.

After the initial full bloom of the "dome," during which unique textures emerged, the parietal bone underwent significant changes, culminating in a final dramatic transformation.

The area around the skull dimmed, but the core area of the parietal bone became even more striking, with a mark rising like the sun.

However, it does not Shine Upon everything or light up the dome, but rather absorbs the light from other textures, concentrates it, and nurtures new life.

This scene is very much like: when all patterns disappear, one principle arises.

Wang Xuan's primordial spirit also rose up and came to the top of his head to observe the changes. He did not stop it.

The Imperial Daoized texture, borrowed from other extraordinary bones and scriptures, have now been absorbed, giving rise to his own core imprint.

I don't know how much time has passed, but this kind of spiritual practice and enlightenment gives people a sense of the vastness of time.

He felt as if an entire era had passed, the dome had been extinguished, the Great Universe was completely dark, and he was the only one standing there struggling to cross the river.

Until that core mark erupted, truly like the sun Shine Upon, in an instant, Resurrected, the dome glowed, and the other patterns came back to life.

However, their shapes and internal structures have changed somewhat, and they have acquired some characteristics of Wang Xuan's unique texture.

This is not a complete transformation; the patterns that Dao-imperialized are merely being adjusted. Their former advantages and power have not diminished at all; on the contrary, they are even more compatible with him.

The dome was ignited with his unique Imperial Dao Texture, illuminating the skull. This change marked a turning point, and his own unique domain began to emerge.

He silently comprehended his cultivation, and his skill improved significantly!

If this continues, the skull will trigger a transformation of the immortal body, thereby elevating the cultivation level.

The hurdle that originally took 20 years to overcome will be broken ahead of schedule.

However, when he opened his eyes, he felt somewhat tired. With his extraordinary divine sense, he immediately looked inward and then triggered Supernatural Sense to conduct a comprehensive examination.

Now, he is very sensitive to the subtle changes in his origins. He cannot continue on his journey "exhausted" but should always ensure that his Essence, Qi, and Spirit are abundant.

Sure enough, the creation of his own unique Imperial Dao Texture at the True Immortal level was extremely taxing, and even with his supreme foundation, he felt he was about to exceed his limits.

At this juncture, the only thing to do is to replenish our energy. There's no reason to cut back on food and clothing while guarding this Mysterious Sea; we must ensure the "prosperity" of our origin and the vigor of our Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

Inside the bronze cauldron, the remaining half of the True Return Fish began to emit a rich aroma, instantly arousing the appetite of someone with a strong sense of hunger.

It contains medicinal properties that are unimaginable to outsiders, and is one of the most exquisite and rare items in the Mysterious Sea, attracting people from the Anomalous Being ethnic groups to fish there year-round.

"If you want to force your way through, you can give it a try." However, Wang Xuan will not force himself; there is absolutely no need for it. His cultivation and realm have already improved fast enough.

This time, he still plans to let himself reach perfection and then break through the barrier naturally, which he estimates will not take long.

True Return Fish was finished, a strange Daoist aura flowed, making the crown of the head, which had been transformed into Dao-imperialized, even whiter and more translucent. The "dome" was radiant, with intricate patterns interwoven inside.

"The amount of sacred substance it contains is quite substantial." He estimated it to be equivalent to two or three drops of Return to Truth Liquid, which, after giving birth to that mysterious pattern, was then completely solidified.

Next, the strangely silvery, delicious meat was served.

This strange fish was good in every way, except it had too many bones. Wang Xuan simply dealt with it and threw it directly into the cauldron. With his "iron mouth and steel teeth," he couldn't even bite through those bones.

An even richer aroma wafted out. What was going on? Wang Xuan was surprised. Had his cooking skills improved so much? He could even make a huge leap forward when cooking a fish.

However, he didn't seem to put much effort into it. It's just a matter of heating and cooking, there's no skill involved at all.

"The fish bones are gone, they've dissolved into the broth. Is this some kind of miracle cure?!" He realized what was wrong. The strange fish with many bones wasn't a flaw; it was better not to treat it.

The next moment, as Wang Xuan enjoyed the delicious food, he became radiant and full of Essence, Qi, and Spirit. His source reservoir expanded, and even grew larger after it was full.

Clearly, the medicinal effects of the strange fish with bones are more astonishing, further promoting the enhancement of its own flesh and blood, connecting with the Daoist principles, and compensating for the indescribable origin.

This propelled him, making his physique stronger, with layers of golden light emanating from his body, which was equivalent to indirectly practicing a powerful physical technique.

"I'm really about to break through, but I should be able to perfect it a bit more. Since I'm evolving, I can also advance my cultivation in certain areas. I haven't practiced physical techniques in a long time."

He achieved Primal Physical Body Immortalization and discovered that his physique was now exceptionally strong, surpassing many records in scriptures. As a result, he no longer focused on this field.

After arriving in the Mysterious Sea, he rekindled his ambitions and recently practiced some secret techniques.

Now, the Shakyamuni Sutra began to circulate, and a huge, sacred image appeared behind him, as tall as a mountain, with a majestic and dignified appearance. It was not the Buddha's body, but rather his own form.

Now his physique is very strong, and his foundation is even stronger. He can practice this scripture very quickly, advancing all the way to the middle stage and then the late stage, with unstoppable momentum.

Next, he searched for physical techniques from the Golden Bamboo Slip. His body was surrounded by a dazzling light, as if a group of people were ascending to heaven. His aura was immense, and the scene was astonishing.

In fact, Wang Xuan started his career by practicing physical skills and developing an invulnerable body in the modern city. During that period, he trained himself to be invulnerable to knives and bullets, and resolved many dangerous situations.

Later, he acquired too many scriptures and had too many choices. The Supreme Scriptures naturally led to an improvement in his physique, so he no longer specialized in that area.

Today, he reopened this field and surprisingly became addicted to practicing it.

The main reason was that the strange fish medicine had such a unique effect; it was a great tonic for improving physical condition, which made him practice this scripture with unparalleled ease, allowing him to break through all the levels and advance to the later stages.

Next, he practiced the stone tablet scriptures. At this stage, he could practice some of the true forms in the nine engraved pictures.

"The primordial spirit must also keep up and guard the Mysterious Sea. If it cannot lay the most solid foundation and undergo a perfect and vigorous transformation, it will be a disservice to this place."

Wang Xuan practices all kinds of scriptures and has dabbled in various fields. Here, he can truly achieve twice the result with half the effort. At the same time, he also noticed that this is related to his skull's Dao-imperialized the Dao, which allows him to comprehend scriptures and cultivate more quickly.

The path to Dao-imperialized is difficult, but once you take that step, it can benefit you in return; it's a process of mutual fulfillment.

In the end, his skull became crystal clear, with sacred patterns spreading to all parts of his body, like starlight falling from the dome, shining in his flesh and spirit, and his whole body exuding a faint aura of Dao-imperialized!

Without any setbacks, Wang Xuan naturally advanced to the seventh level of True Immortal, his cultivation greatly increased, and he broke through another barrier.

Moreover, this time he actually attracted a heavenly tribulation, which is quite unusual.

It should be noted that after entering this extraordinary central universe, he only experienced one tribulation, unlike the Mother Universe where they occurred more frequently.

Of course, this doesn't apply to the practice of the Six Tribulations of Thunder and Fire, as that is related to the characteristics of the technique and his active use of lightning to conceal it.

The only time was when he entered the Immortal Realm from the Ascension Cliff, where he quietly broke through his cultivation barrier and underwent tribulation.

He didn't undergo any more tribulations after his subsequent Realm Advancement. He guessed that this was related to the immense power of the Supernatural Great Universe, which rendered ordinary minor realms insignificant.

"It seems that after traversing the Supernatural Great Universe, my arrival in this world is somewhat special, which is why I was 'taken care of' by the Heavenly Tribulation. This time, it was because I gave birth to my own Imperial Dao Texture that I attracted the attention of the Heavenly Tribulation rules in the dark."

He remained completely calm, flying onto the black sea to face a terrifying tribulation, accompanied by lightning, thunder, gales, and towering waves.

Although he was cleaved in blood, charred in many places, and even had his body pierced, he was unharmed and successfully survived this calamity that would have been fatal for many true immortals!

Wang Xuan remained calm, not feeling anything amiss. He had experienced all sorts of "extraordinary" things in the past and was already used to it.

In the distance, the Silver Strange Fish stared in disbelief. Based on its experience, it knew that it was a true immortal tribulation, but it was far beyond what was expected. Ordinary celestial beings would be struck down and killed!

The villain, however, remained completely unperturbed, showing no concern for this extraordinary Lightning Tribulation, and simply floated away, landing on the island reef.

Wang Xuan's skull glowed, and his injuries healed rapidly at an astonishing pace.

"You've advanced another realm so quickly. It's probably related to the good fortune of the Mysterious Sea, and also has some connection to the special scriptures you practiced on Black Peacock Sacred Mountain. Is this considered a change in your cultivation level?"

Only then did he pick up the Bronze Bottle from the ground, pry open the stopper, and discover a glowing piece of paper inside, which was actually made of star sand—a very luxurious find.

It is clear that this was written by a woman. In addition to the beautiful and luminous words, there is also Spirit Imprint, expressing sympathy for his situation and indicating that she is trying to find a way to rescue him back to the starry sky.

The woman also told him that the Silver Strange Fish had a wonderful effect on improving physical condition, and gave him a scripture as a gift, which he could use to refine his body and achieve twice the result with half the effort.

The woman also provided some information about the Demon Palace in the sea, its power structure, and so on, giving him a preliminary impression of the underwater world.

In addition, the woman also provided some pictures of strange objects, including True Return Fish, and told him about the various treasures in the Mysterious Sea that he should not miss if he encountered them.

"The whole world has really turned upside down. I'm swimming towards the seabed here, and I'll eventually return to the starry sky." Wang Xuan muttered to himself. He was satisfied with just this kind of information.

Otherwise, if he were to fly from here towards the top of the reef, things would only go against his wishes, and he would never find his way back.

The only concern is that we must avoid the palaces of the strange people in the sea, and there are some forbidden places that we must never set foot in.

The woman mentioned on the paper that there was a Fishbone Palace in this sea area, a terrifying Demon Palace of the sea creatures, and it was truly not easy for the Bronze Bottle to pass through that area smoothly.

She suggested that Wang Xuan send a part of his primordial spirit into the Bronze Bottle to return. In case he was intercepted, his true body would not be in mortal danger. If he successfully drifted back, he could talk to her and discuss how to rescue him.

Wang Xuan's expression turned strange; there really was a group of people fishing in the starry sky.

He was at the bottom of the sea and had no intention of going back.

Next, while cultivating, he observed the fish in the sea with his Spiritual Heavenly Eye, and communicated with the woman by throwing the Bronze Bottle.

He said he dared not separate his primordial spirit to drift back into the Bronze Bottle, having witnessed the giant monster swallow an entire sea area, fearing an accident might occur along the way.

He then mentioned that he had discovered a large, fiery red fish underwater, numbering about a dozen, but unfortunately, they couldn't be caught because they were too fast.

At the same time, he again requested more detailed nautical charts, maps showing the distribution of the Demon Palace, and so on.

This time, he still used fish bones as the material for the letter. Although he already knew that fish bones were also a great tonic, he thought it wouldn't hurt to give the other party more information if it could attract their attention.

Under the brilliant starry sky, Bronze Bottle appeared on the sea surface. Zhuo Yanran, a woman with a stunning figure, was slightly excited. Was there a group of True Return Fish underwater?

On the island, Wang Xuan received some "supplies" this time: an old fishing rod connected with a regular fishing line and hook, and a little bit of real dragon flesh and blood.

He looked surprised. Was he being asked to fish for True Return Fish? Who uses fishing lines and hooks these days? If they really found out, they'd just go into the sea in their true form.

"These fishing rods are too old and worn out, far inferior to the five on the island."

At the same time, he also received a very mysterious scripture. He knew from his intuition that it was very powerful and extremely complex. The other party was so generous as to give him such a great benefit.

In the starry sky, on the sea cliff, the purple-clad woman Ye Lin, was detached from worldly affairs. As her best friend, she advised, "Hey, Yanran, what's wrong with you lately? You've been getting really close to that creature trapped in the seabed, whether it's human or sea monster, and you're exchanging messages in bottles. Could it be that you've been bewitched and want to have a human-demon romance?"

"Ye Lin, there's a great opportunity at the bottom of the sea this time, I'm 'fishing'!" Zhuo Yanran didn't hide anything from her, she was very excited and told her the details, and said that she had sent down a legendary book.

"After practicing this scripture to a certain level, he will not be able to bear it, and his body will experience some problems. He will inevitably contact me to ask for the next chapter. In fact, I also suspect that he may be a slave who defected from the starry sky and deliberately lured us into this trap. In that case, I will strike first. Even if I am wrong, I will not be able to kill him in a short time. I can decide based on the situation."

Over the next few days, Wang Xuan encountered some trouble while practicing the mysterious scriptures, but the problem was not too serious because he was practicing several Supreme Scripture Fragment.

In particular, his understanding of body refinement was too profound. He believed that this scripture had flaws and defects and was originally impossible to master, but he managed to master it by referring to other scriptures.

After all, the human body consists of those areas, and there are bound to be overlaps in the paths and potentials that certain scriptures aim to develop. And by practicing various top-tier secret techniques, he has practically achieved full-body advancements.

In the following days, Wang Xuan noticed that the other party was overly concerned about his speed and state of practicing the scriptures. Then his face darkened, and he realized the secret of the scripture trap.

During this time, the other party subtly asked to exchange meat from the strange fish with him, but he did not respond. Now he has decided to give her a gift.

Based on the strange artifact illustrations sent to him by the other party, he discovered a monster in the sea called "Sperm Whale Dragon," whose secretions, ambergris, could be developed into the finest extraordinary perfumes.

What Wang Xuan was going to send was the product of the failed secretion of the Sperm Whale Dragon, which was equivalent to primitive excrement. It could stink for two hundred miles in the wind. Even he himself turned pale when he got close, feeling that he couldn't stand it. Even pinching his nose didn't help. It invaded his primordial spirit. He quickly sent it into Bronze Bottle from a distance and then threw it into the sea.

"Hey, she's here!" Under the starry sky, Zhuo Yanran, dressed in a black dress, stood gracefully on the sea cliff, her beautiful face beaming with joy.

She felt that the other party might be feeling the pressure and wanted to ask her for the next part of the scripture, which was part of a supreme chapter that was famous throughout the stars, very special and irresistible.

Today is Rejuvenation Day, wishing everyone to stay young forever, forever eighteen. Also, wishing our friends in Sichuan peace and safety.
