Yin Yang Rise and Fall! Life and Death Cycle! Old Deng Finally Achieves Spirit Transmutation!
The Dao Stone forms the foundation, Heavenly Thunder Dao Fire imbue it with Life Force, and Immortal Spiritual Energy fills its energy channels.
At this moment, the humanoid body sculpted from the entire Dao Stone seemed to possess complete vitality, breath, and long, flowing energy. More than 36,000 pores, pierced by Immortal Spiritual Energy, glowed, and more than 720 acupoints resembled vortexes, radiating light within the body.
At this moment, the entire Dao body was crystal clear amidst the Dao fire and heavenly thunder, and its interior could be seen clearly.
The muscles were slender yet tight, full yet three-dimensional. The tiny blood vessels between the muscles, the various nerve endings, the tendons between the muscles, and the internal organs all gradually emerged with each breath after the Immortal Spiritual Energy swept over them.
The area around the brain, however, was completely black, like an unexplored dark ravine, with varying depths and shades, like countless gray lines intertwined together.
This is the brain of the Dao body. The grooves and lines on the surface represent the depth of the brain structure. The deeper the grooves and the more branches there are, the higher the degree of interconnection of the brain, the greater the usable logic that can be processed, and the stronger the analytical and synthetic recognition capabilities.
Chen Dengming based his work entirely on his profound memory of the structure of the human brain.
For a Nascent Soul True Lord like him, who often uses his Divine Sense to introspect, every cell in his body, and even the structure deep within his brain, is already completely familiar.
It is not difficult to recreate it at this point.
The transformation is even more difficult.
Because refining the structure, density, and even the modification of gray matter and neurons deep within the brain requires a high degree of subtle control over the Divine Sense and will.
For example, modifying the gray matter of the brain. The more gray matter there is, the higher the Mental Strength that the nerves can withstand. The stronger the tolerance of the nerve center, the more powerful the Mental Power it can handle. Mental Will and Primordial Spirit will be effectively improved.
But how much gray matter is considered reasonable, and whether too much of it will affect other brain functions?
These are all things that need to be carefully considered. The safest way to improve is to cultivate steadily and practically, breaking through to higher Strength Realm.
With the breakthrough in the Strength Realm, the body naturally undergoes a corresponding self-evolution to match the enhanced Essence, Qi, and Spirit. This is a natural progression, not a result of haphazard modification or forcing growth.
Therefore, even though Chen Dengming could modify the brain at this time, he did not act rashly, but instead replicated and solidified it according to his previous best standards.
Once his Nascent Soul Divine Soul takes up residence within it, the power of his Essence, Qi, and Spirit will naturally prompt his Dao body to undergo the most suitable 'transformation'. Each subsequent breakthrough in realm will bring about new transformations and improvements.
At this moment, one can see that the body's energy channels are long and deep, and the acupoints are spread all over the body like stars in the Minor and Major Heavenly Cycles and macrocosmic orbits, shining brightly and full of Life Force with each breath.
Without further hesitation, Chen Dengming gathered his Immortal Celestial Dao Power, preparing to invoke the Heaven's Will.
The third step in solidifying the Dao body is for Heaven's Will to endow it with a vibrant consciousness.
A solemn expression appeared Nascent Soul his small, delicate face.
This step of invoking the Heaven's Will is not as simple as mobilizing the frenzied will of Heavenly Dao surrounding the Heavenly Longevity Hall; it is about invoking the true Heaven's Will.
The Heaven and Earth Creation and earth is a masterpiece of nature, a divine creation that gives birth to life.
Only this creative power can transform decay into wonder and turn stubborn stone into Spiritual Fetus.
However, this step is also particularly dangerous, as it requires further disturbing the already mad and still unaware Heavenly Dao, and it is the step most likely to lead to failure among all the processes of forging the Dao body.
Chen Dengming was inside the Heavenly Longevity Hall and only intended to subtly provoke the Heaven's Will once, to lightly tease it before daring to attempt anything.
His eyes shone with a brilliant blue light as he manipulated the Heaven's Will with his own will, unleashing the full potential of his Immortal Celestial Dao Power and Divine Sense will.
At the same time, a powerful surge of Primordial Spirit Power burst forth from his river of consciousness.
This immense Primordial Spirit Power, nearly half of his Primordial Spirit, was resolutely severed by Chen Dengming after it was released, transforming into a wisp of spirit that carried most of the dense Immortal Celestial Dao Power and surged into his Dao body.
The divine light in the Nascent Soul's eyes dimmed considerably.
Rumble--
Heavenly Longevity Hall, crimson Thunderbolt Arc, like oil being poured into a raging fire, suddenly blazed intensely, resembling countless small crimson snakes that instantly coiled around the surface of the Heavenly Longevity Hall.
An incredibly oppressive and gloomy atmosphere of restlessness was born in that instant.
In the distant, chaotic Outer Heaven, a blurry eye, seemingly bloodshot and filled with rage, suddenly opened slightly.
It was like a bright, scarlet sun.
An incomparably vast, cold, and boundless will descended from the sky, transforming into a dazzling and astonishing crimson flash that pierced through the darkness and transcended the distance of time and space.
The zigzagging lightning trembled suddenly like a sharp sword, plunging straight down and landing on the top of the Dao body's head.
Boom!--
The entire body instantly became dazzling and bright like a gemstone, and the originally dark head and brain area inside the body became as bright as a light bulb.
At this moment, the brain is like a big tree, and countless tiny neurons are like the roots of the tree, shining brightly.
These roots even pass through the spine of the body, intertwining to form a strange thing that resembles Spirit Root.
The Primordial Spirit Power Chen Dengming had just poured into the Dao body was instantly shattered within the Dao body, like an iron disc being smashed by a giant hammer.
However, even though the Primordial Spirit Power dissipated and was partially lost, Chen Dengming's Main Primordial Spirit still remained intact.
After the fragmented spirit dissipated, it gradually condensed again within the Dao body.
A consciousness imbued with a faint aura of madness was born within this divided spirit, causing the Immortal Celestial Dao Power within the Dao body to erupt in a frenzied cheer, like stars surrounding the moon.
The most crucial step in Heaven's Will bestowing consciousness upon the Dao body is this, and thus success is achieved.
Far Outer Heaven.
Awakened, the mad Heavenly Dao glanced down impatiently and saw only a Dao Stone of the same origin as itself, suspended in the repulsive Phoenix Dao Fire. Although the Nascent Soul Dao Power within it was weak, it was also extremely pure.
Apart from that, there was nothing else that was in the way.
In this dazed, half-asleep, half-awake state of being oblivious to the workings of Heaven, the Heavenly Dao did not ponder much. Before closing its eyes and falling asleep, another vast Heaven's Will burst forth from the slits of its eyes.
With a deafening roar, thunder rumbled, and the immense Heaven's Will gathered within the Heavenly Prison, like a blazing and powerful aurora borealis, swept away everything.
The Phoenix Dao Fire shook violently before extinguishing and weakening. The dissipated energy was absorbed and assimilated by the Heavenly Prison, while the Heaven's Will gradually faded away along with the oppressive and restless atmosphere.
"I succeeded, but I never expected the Phoenix Dao Fire to take the blame for me. What a close call!"
Heavenly Longevity Hall, Chen Dengming, who had been on high alert, felt the intense threat fade and disappear, and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, upon noticing that the Daoist body Heavenly Longevity Hall contained a trace of madness within its divided consciousness, he couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.
Before taking this step, he had already anticipated that the divided spirit residing in the Dao body would be infected by the mad will of the Heavenly Dao due to the consciousness bestowed upon it by Heaven's Will.
This was unavoidable.
Even the Longevity Jade Seal itself contains a hint of madness due to the madness of Heaven's Will.
Not to mention that it's quite normal for the still-unconscious Heaven's Will to use its skillful hand to infect the mad Heaven's Will.
However, compared to the preciousness of the Dao body, this flaw is not unacceptable.
At least with his Spiritual Realm, he is fully capable of overcoming these moments of distraction and the madness of Heaven's Will.
At this moment, the Dao body Heavenly Longevity Hall was filled with spiritual energy and life force, and was incomparably perfect. It had transformed into the appearance of Chen Dengming in his youth, according to Chen Dengming's distracted thoughts.
His ears were higher than his eyebrows, his eyebrows were glossy, thick but not muddy, his nasal root was prominent, his nose bridge was firm, and his eyes were as bright as stars.
The only difference is that this body is like cast iron, with skin, Flesh and Blood, and bones all resembling gemstones. The muscles on the surface of the strong body are intertwined, making it extremely powerful.
He was a head taller than before, and deep within his bones and muscles seemed to contain incomparably violent Divine Thunder. Just by hovering there, he exuded a fierce, powerful, and indestructible terrifying aura.
"He looks much younger. I never imagined he was so handsome when he was young. It's a pity he doesn't have my gray hair. He's not perfect enough, and I'm not even used to looking like him. A man just needs to be fierce, not necessarily too handsome."
With a thought, Chen Dengming slowly flew into the Heavenly Longevity Hall from outside.
His once bald and shiny head gradually grew thick and lustrous long hair that cascaded over his shoulders, and his temples were adorned with a few familiar streaks of white.
Chen Dengming waited a moment until the intense heat of his Dao body, which was like a furnace, cooled down and his body returned to a jade-white complexion like Dao Stone before his Nascent Soul Divine Soul attempted to enter the Dao body.
Instantly.
An incredibly thick, heavy, and overwhelmingly suffocating feeling filled my entire body.
But in terms of the stuffy, heavy feeling, it's like the feeling of an ordinary person being buried in the ground, except that the ground is exposed to the wind from all sides, so it's not completely airtight, but it's still uncomfortable.
Chen Dengming knew that this was because his Dao body and his Nascent Soul Divine Soul were not compatible.
The saying goes, "How can a heart that is not made of wood or stone be without feeling?" This Dao body is essentially shaped by Dao Stone. Even though it now possesses Life Force and spirituality, it only means that in the future, this Dao body may absorb the spirituality of his divided spirit and gradually develop into a special kind of being.
However, this does not mean that he can now Body Possession and Spirit Return.
His Essence, Qi, and Spirit and soul could hardly Resonance and Integration with or connect with him.
At such a moment, the final step of using the Life and Death Dao Rhyme to bring the Dao Stone to life and guide the Dao body to resonate with his Nascent Soul Divine Soul becomes especially important.
Without hesitation, Chen Dengming's Nascent Soul rapidly absorbed and devoured the divided spirit within his Dao body, which contained the madness of the Heaven's Will.
During this process, the heavy, suffocating discomfort gradually diminished, but a sense of restlessness and madness began to emerge in my mind.
With a powerful State of Mind, Chen Dengming resisted the infectious influence of the madness of Heaven's Will. At this moment, the Life and Death Dao Rhyme within his Nascent Soul burst forth, transforming into Yin and Yang energies like two fish, appearing within his Dao body.
Instantly, an aura of Daoist essence filled the entire body of the Daoist.
The Yin Yang Two Energies flowed through the meridians, acupoints, and internal organs along with the body's natural breathing, making the cold stone seem to gain warmth at this moment, as if it had found the meaning of life.
"Life... death... yin and yang"
As Chen Dengming felt the subtle influence of the Life and Death Dao Rhyme on his Dao body, he pondered many things about the Dao of Life and Death.
A meteor streaks across the sky; its appearance and its fleeting, descent into oblivion constitute its short but brilliant life.
The moth emerges from its pupa, grows gradually, and then flies into the flame—that is its short but intense life.
The Shore Flower blooms for a thousand years and withers for a thousand years, its flowers and leaves never meeting. The moment the flower path leads to the other shore marks the beginning of its long and mysterious life.
There are rises and falls, yin and yang; this is the ultimate truth derived from the Life and Death Dao Rhyme.
This profound truth about life and death is completely consistent with the ancient Chinese legends of the creation of heaven and earth, which states that "heaven and earth were in chaos like an egg" and "heaven and earth were created by the clear Yang becoming heaven and the turbid Yin becoming earth."
The ancient immortals, upon death, transformed into all things, which perfectly aligns with Chen Dengming's understanding of the Daoist concept of the Unity of Heaven and Man.
Just as in ancient times, in the eyes of people whose wisdom was just beginning to awaken, heaven and earth, like humanity, were subject to birth and death: the sun died every night and was resurrected every morning; the moon died on the first day of the lunar month and was resurrected on the fifteenth; flowers, grass, and trees all died in winter and were revived in spring...
Life and death are like a cycle.
Chen Dengming's thoughts were completely absorbed in contemplating the Life and Death Dao Rhyme, without ever tiring of it.
His Mental Strength seemed to be rapidly depleting at this moment, but in reality, it wasn't that his Mental Strength was being consumed too quickly; rather, it was that time was quietly slipping away while he was contemplating enlightenment.
In the blink of an eye, several years had passed in the blink of an eye, and his Mental Strength energy was completely depleted.
However, at the same time, deep within his heart, the myriad flames of the Human Heart Hall gradually flickered and shone.
Among some of those burning thoughts, the faces of people who had a relatively good relationship with Chen Dengming emerged.
No matter where they were or what they were doing, they all thought of Chen Dengming at that moment, and what Chen Dengming should be doing.
On the streets of Chang'an Workshop in the Eastern Region, the elderly Jiang Qiang suddenly stopped. An unprecedented longing for Brother Chen arose in his heart at this moment. He couldn't help but look up at the leisurely white clouds in the sky, his eyes revealing vicissitudes and a trace of emotion.
"Brother Chen, it has been seven years since that Immortal Sect collapsed. I heard that you are alright, but why haven't you returned in seven years? Lately, I have increasingly felt that my time is coming to an end. I don't know if I can live to see you come back and visit. I wonder if I can pour you another cup of wine and hear you talk about the old days at Jingxiu Workshop, our old Gathering Place."
Longevity Hall the Longevity Sect Hall of the Longevity Sect, He Yingyu, dressed in the robes of the acting sect leader, her eyebrows like spring mountains and her eyes like autumn waters, stroked a traditional Chinese ink painting hanging on the wall with longing.
In the painting, a green mountain sits amidst a tall, imposing man in a green robe, who strides down from the sky with a smile. His white hair flutters as he walks with his hands behind his back, exuding a leisurely and confident charm.
"Junior Brother, how are you now? Although Su Shijie said you are alright for the time being, I am still worried. I hope you will return safely and soundly."
He Yingyu sighed inwardly, withdrew her slender hand from the painting, and with an impeccably beautiful and graceful posture, stood up and moved lightly to the outside of the hall.
At this moment, the sky gradually darkened, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her delicate and beautiful face. The tender feelings of longing transformed into Mental Strength and blended into the fire in her heart.
"Fifth Brother, why do I suddenly miss you so much? I guess it's because I want to sit down and have a drink with you. Since we last parted, you haven't even had much to drink before you left and never came back. You must come back."
At Tidal Cliff, Evergreen Gate, Jiang Jian, the Second Ancestor Longevity had already cultivated to the Golden Core stage, raised his wine jug, frowned, and then drank it all in one gulp.
"Hmm? What trick is that brat up to now? I've never thought of him at a time like this before."
In the southern land, Dongfang Huayuan, disguised as a wealthy old man, was sprawled out on several ordinary beauties, savoring the lingering tastes of his past life in the mortal world. Suddenly, he got up, his brow furrowed in confusion.
Outside the territory.
Within the Phoenix Flame Cave of the Phoenix Cry Dao Domain, a slender, fair-skinned, and graceful figure stood with her arms crossed, surrounded by intensely hot Phoenix True Fire, entering the most crucial moment of her Nirvana.
But at that moment, her long eyelashes trembled, and she suddenly opened her phoenix eyes, which were like rubies.
"The Longevity Sect Leader — Chen Dengming!!"
Whether Inner Domain or outside the domain, whether across the four seas or the four regions.
At this moment, the cultivators who had interacted with Chen Dengming all thought of Chen Dengming, the Longevity Sect Leader.
Whether it was love or hate, this love and hate transformed into a power of desire in their hearts, emerging from the fire of the Human Heart Hall, transforming into pure Mental Strength, and surging into Chen Dengming's soul.
This is precisely the essence of the Human Immortal Way: Unity of All Hearts.
Chen Dengming's depleted mental energy was quickly replenished, and at the same time, his understanding of the Dao of Life and Death deepened.
At this moment, the aura formed by the Life and Death Dao Rhyme and Death filled the Dao Stone, causing the cold and unappealing Dao Stone to gradually move from Yin to Yang, from death to life, and to merge and resonate with its Nascent Soul Divine Soul.
The features of this body, which originally had a somewhat artificial and angular appearance, gradually began to truly match the features and temperament of its Nascent Soul.
The Immortal Celestial Dao Power and Immortal Spiritual Energy that filled the Dao body gradually interacted with the Law Power within the Nascent Soul, forming a cycle of life, death, yin and yang.
The Dao Stone is originally an inanimate object, but at this moment it interacts with the Nascent Soul Divine Soul representing a living being, which is the harmony of Yin and Yang, and the prosperity of one and the prosperity of the other.
In that instant, as if drawn by an attraction, a large amount of Heavenly Dao Power and Immortal Spiritual Energy emanated from the Dao Stone in the Heavenly Longevity Hall and surged into the Dao Body.
Heavenly Longevity Hall, some faint Phoenix Dao Fire gathered into clusters of fire, swept into the hall, and merged into the Dao body, adding even more Life Force.
Chen Dengming's body radiated Treasure Light, and a powerful spiritual aura spread out, so he could no longer feel any sense of urgency, stuffiness, or discomfort.
His Nascent Soul Divine Soul and physical body were completely integrated, and his magical Law Power began to increase steadily.
On the panel, the proficiency level of the <Heavenly Immortal Art> fluctuated wildly, quickly reaching the limit of the Nascent Soul Perfection stage.
Then, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit burned like an intensely burning flame.
The Nascent Soul and the Primordial Spirit melted away completely within the Dao body, as if a candle had melted.
After transforming into an infant, one forms an infant; after forming an infant, one transforms into an infant again. The Law Power merges into one's flesh Flesh and Blood, and bones, forging the Dao body of Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord.
Refining the spirit into the Primordial Spirit, the Primordial Spirit then Spirit Transformation, the spirit merges into the five internal organs of the body, and condenses into the Dao God Spirit Transmutation Dao Lord.
In this way, the three elements of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, and spirit are unified, and countless smaller elements combine to form a larger element, Spirit Transformation is achieved.
Chen Dengming's Divine Sense had already seeped into every cell of the Dao body in this natural flow, leaving a deep imprint.
His physical body was also transformed along with the leap in his essence, Essence, Qi, and Spirit, and spirit during this breakthrough, making it more compatible with his current power.
Even if one is shattered to pieces in the future, as long as a drop of blood remains, with the imprint of Law Power and Primordial Spirit fused deep within the blood cells, one will become a complete mini-Sanyuan. As long as one obtains sufficient resources, one can be quickly resurrected.
At this moment, Chen Dengming truly broke through, his Dao body was formed and Spirit Transformation!
He suddenly opened his eyes, and a Golden Light, like flames, emanated from them. His eyes were like two bright lamps, full of light and heat, which condensed into two lines of fire in the air and disappeared in an instant.
A vast and powerful pressure surged out of the Heavenly Longevity Hall along with his gaze. The will in his eyes directly shattered the already calmed and frenzied Heavenly Dao will, and even carried a portion of the Heaven's Will, soaring out of the Heavenly Prison. He immediately saw the Immortal King's Mansion outside and the layers of tribulation power.
The tribulation force met his fiery gaze, and instantly seemed to boil and swell in chaos.
"Good lad, only thirty-six years have passed, and you've already successfully reached the Spirit Transformation? I was planning to leave on my own if you didn't emerge in a few more years."
After enduring countless tribulations, a loud voice of Qu Shenzong and praise suddenly rang out from inside the Heavenly Fortune Hall.

Today was a bit complicated, which caused the update to be late. First, my childhood friend got married, which was expected and I had made some preparations, so it wasn't a big deal. However, on my way home, I unexpectedly fell off the high-speed train escalator and was injured all over, including my hands and feet. This was quite unfortunate. I've already posted the pictures in the book club group, and I'm not lying. So, it took me some time to apply medicine after I got back, but I quickly got back to writing after a quick bandage. But I'm still a bit late, sorry!
