Once the Heart Worm is gone, the soul is elevated and can no longer be called a soul, but rather a divine soul or a sacred soul. In any case, it means the same thing. The pure Yang realm pursued by Daoist practitioners also refers to this.
In actual combat, this level of skill doesn't have any particularly special effects. At most, it just allows you to unleash your full potential without making basic mistakes like losing your composure.
But when applied to cultivation... that makes one a true prodigy. The Pure Yang Realm can burn away any distracting thoughts or inner demons, and one doesn't need to worry about going astray or falling into demonic possession when practicing any technique.
Moreover, in the future, when cultivating mental and spiritual techniques, one can progress by leaps and bounds, at a speed a thousand times faster than that of ordinary people.
This is the real benefit.
From this moment on, Lin Hui could openly and proudly declare himself a peerless genius.
In reality, the ultimate goal that most exceptional geniuses pursue in their souls is actually the state they are in now.
Fusheng marveled in amazement.
So, it's like your soul has reached the Seven Extinctions Realm before your cultivation level is even there, right? I'm getting more and more curious about how high you'll actually go, kid Lin..."
"I happen to have some questions I'd like to ask you, senior." Suddenly, Lin Hui's voice rang out within the Demon Palace.
"You're awake? Wow! You're amazing!" Fusheng reluctantly gave a thumbs-up, making an impressive gesture.
"From now on, you will be immune to all demons and attain pure Yang. In some smaller worlds, you would already be able to detach from your physical body and become an immortal."
"But I'm still a bit short of my goal," Lin Hui said. "To be honest, the sword technique I'm currently practicing clashes somewhat with this new cultivation method. The current situation is that if I continue practicing, my previous cultivation in the sword technique might be ruined. Therefore, I would like to ask for your guidance on how to best handle this situation."
"What sword technique are you practicing? Never mind what sword technique it is, forget about it, focus on the cultivation method you're practicing now! You've already reached the Pure Yang realm at the very beginning of this cultivation method, what will happen when you progress further?" Fusheng said quickly.
"This junior practices the Great Yin Yang Time Reversal Sword Technique..."
"It's okay, just let it go... Wait!" Fusheng suddenly realized, "Say that again? What are you practicing?"
" Great Yin Yang Time Reversal Sword Technique!"
"... I..." Fusheng hesitated for a moment. "Where did you get this sword technique? I remember it was destroyed by a combined force a long time ago!?"
"This was all a coincidence..." Lin Hui clearly didn't intend to reveal any more details.
"You... like this! Your body has been tempered to an incredibly strong state by the sword technique, and you can completely refine it into a sword pellet. I will teach you a Body Transformation Spirit Sword Art. In the future, no matter how many bodies you have, you can refine them into your own sword pellets and store them within your Yang Spirit." Fusheng said, conflicted.
He really had no choice.
Seeing that this Heart Source Demon Emperor was the most likely to let him leave, if something happened to him here... he might truly have no hope of escaping this place in the future.
"Thank you very much, senior!" Lin Hui quickly expressed his gratitude.
He was worried about how to improve his sword technique, and if he could solve the problem indirectly, it would be a way of repaying Fusheng's favor.
The Great Yin Yang Time Reversal Sword Technique is a powerful sword technique that he painstakingly evolved; it would be a real shame to give it up directly.
He originally intended to train it into a form of qi, like an external avatar, but the idea of sword pellets was clearly more suitable.
"No need to thank me, just remember to release me when you're capable..." Fusheng sighed. Then he spoke, slowly recounting a special secret technique he had treasured for a long time.
"One body, one sword. Remember, this technique can only support a maximum of nine types of human and sword. The same type of body will automatically merge into one type. Before merging, remember to save the parts you want to keep," Fusheng reminded.
"Yes!"
Following the secret method, Lin Hui completely transformed his newly purified Supreme Yang Pure Fire Spirit into sword pellets, using the other bodies as the main body.
His body in the Mist Man World and his body in the Republic of China World melted away and completely condensed into two pale silver metal spheres, which floated in front of Lin Hui at this moment.
His body remained unchanged, a bizarre humanoid form floating in the purple mist, almost completely melting away.
This eerie and terrifying face is actually the original form of the Yang God after all toxins and impurities have been removed.
That is, the descriptions of immortals and gods in some large worlds.
Formless, immaculate, and without leakage.
"Alright, practice this secret technique often when you have time. Your body can recover at any time, but the material will no longer be flesh and blood. You should be aware of that," Fusheng instructed.
Lin Hui toyed with the two floating silver sword pellets and nodded slightly.
"Understood, thank you for your guidance, senior."
"Go on, go on, I should rest too. It's been a long time since I've done such tiring work..." Passing on such a complex and advanced secret technique was a considerable burden for him as well.
Fusheng lay drowsily in the chair and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Lin Hui was left alone to fly back to the Demon Palace. With a wave of his hand, a wisp of Disaster Energy suddenly appeared in front of him.
The next moment, the Wind Disaster and Disaster Energy were gently inhaled, entering the nostrils and disappearing.
In that instant, the Disaster Energy, which had just been in a free state, was transformed into personal Wind Energy unique to Lin Hui.
After absorbing a Wind Energy, his body seemed to solidify slightly. The melting of his appearance began to recover, and he started to change towards the face of Lin Hui in this life.
Having found it useful, Lin Hui had another idea.
laugh.
A blue Wind Disaster Rift suddenly appeared in the space inside the Demon Palace.
A massive amount of blue Disaster Energy surged out from the crack, and was then deeply inhaled by Lin Hui, who was facing him with his mouth open.
Instantly, all the surging Wind Disaster and Disaster Energy transformed into the burning yang fire power that replenished his yang spirit body.
"No..." Lin Hui raised his hand, and a wisp of golden-blue Disaster Energy shone in his palm once again.
That is the unique Wind Energy he converted.
This Wind Energy is rather special; it seems to contain golden burning flames, and it can also flow and circulate like the wind.
From the outside, it looks like a flowing, swirling stream of blue-gold flames.
"Success... Yin-Time Self-Origin Art... Utilizing the essence of the Supreme Yang Pure Fire, I have finally successfully transformed the Source Disaster Wind Disaster Energy!" Lin Hui breathed a long sigh of relief.
Once this first step is successful, the subsequent training will focus on improving the conversion speed and the quality of the converted Wind Energy.
In any case, the first step, the conversion of Wind Energy, is comparable to Disaster Energy in comparison, which already meets his requirements.
As long as he continues his cultivation and transformation, he is constantly undermining the Wind Disaster, completely transforming it into his own Wind Energy.
At this point, Lin Hui no longer hesitated and began to devour the boundless Disaster Energy surging from the crack.
As he transformed and devoured, his body began to reveal increasingly clear outlines.
Its power has also rapidly expanded from only being able to mobilize free-state Disaster Energy to the level of high-energy condensed state.
The Disaster Energy transformed by the Supreme Yang Pure Fire is like an extension of one's arm; after being refined, it is quickly compressed and condensed, transforming towards a high-energy condensed state.
This step, which many Fusion Faction cannot overcome in their entire lives, was easily crossed by Lin Hui through his unconscious cultivation.
Once he takes this step, he becomes virtually indistinguishable from a deeply integrated Fusion Faction, which is the early state of Seven Extinctions back then.

Endless Divine Realm, Eighth Military Department.
Within the vast, empty, golden spherical space, figures floated in the air, each with a white-gold rune wheel spinning behind them.
The runic ring represents the most fundamental strength and realm of the God Clan.
The evolution from white to platinum represents the most fundamental qualitative change between the fifth and sixth rings.
There are five figures in the platinum-gold rings here. They are men and women, young and old, and their appearances are all different, but the indifference and profundity in their eyes are all very similar.
"Fellow Shen Mu, I apologize for taking time out of your busy schedules to gather everyone here."
At the center of the space, a blond man with a gentle demeanor, dressed in a black and white checkered robe, slowly emerged.
A white-gold rune ring also floated behind him.
This particular ring was far more complex and intricate than the surrounding rings of the Shen Mu, resembling a technological artifact compared to a bone artifact from the primitive era—the difference was immense.
"Lord Ping Yun, you personally led the charge during the previous calamity, repelling the evil gods from the outer realms. Did you leave behind the coordinates of these evil gods' own domains?" a white-haired Shen Mu asked in a deep voice.
"Of course there is. That's why I've come here." The blond man was none other than Ping Yun, the ruler of the Eighth Military Department.
As the supreme ruler second only to the God-King, he actually rose from the position of Shen Mu.
But ten thousand years have passed, and now he has far surpassed the level of Shen Mu. Although he still has the sixth-grade rune wheel of Shen Mu floating in his appearance, no one would really believe that he only has this much strength.
"In fact, according to the intelligence department's specific investigation, we discovered that this calamity invasion was actually orchestrated by five main forces."
Ping Yun pointed.
Suddenly, five human-shaped images slowly appeared in mid-air among the crowd.
The list includes the Cold Night Matriarch, the Purgatory Duke, the Ash Lord, and Zhang Xinfan. Their appearances are all extremely detailed, like real photographs.
"Five dominant forces? Weren't they supposed to be four calamities? How did it become five?" Shen Mu, who looked like a three or four-year-old girl, asked with a frown.
"Initially, we did find only four types, but... based on subsequent on-site investigations after purification, the intelligence department discovered that there is another, much deeper-hidden Calamity Guide, lurking even further and yet to be revealed."
Ping Yun pointed her finger.
Suddenly, one of the five images, consisting entirely of pitch-black human figures, was rapidly magnified.
"According to analysis and tracing, this calamity war, on the surface, was caused by the four major calamities, but in reality, the true mastermind is this mysterious person known as Hui," Ping Yun said earnestly.
"Hui?"
"That's right. This information was extracted from the limited memories stored by those calamity monsters. All we know right now is that he's called Hui; everything else is unknown. His appearance, identity, abilities, even the calamity he belongs to is a mystery."
Ping Yun's expression was serious.
"Gentlemen, a mysterious person who can lead the four calamities to jointly invade my divine realm must be someone whose weight is such that the four calamities must submit to him. In other words, this person is definitely a more troublesome individual than the guy who fought my Avatar before."
We must proceed with extreme caution.
"Indeed, this means that the Calamity still has reserves. They failed this time, but next time they will never give up, and may even unleash an even more terrifying danger. Because Hui did not make a move this time, it means that he was probably assessing our situation and combat strength. And next time, when he really makes a move, it will definitely be a super-large calamity far exceeding the scale of this one..." The old Shen Mu's expression became solemn.
"That's right... I've already signed the Dark Sun Plan, with this Radiance as the primary target, to investigate and track all specific intelligence on the Calamity Alliance," Ping Yun said solemnly. "This involves a very wide range, and we'll need everyone's full cooperation."
"You're too kind, Commander. We will certainly do our best."
These Shen Mu are all like regional governors, each with their own army, territory, resources, and wealth.
At the same time, they are also the core support and loyal followers that enable Ping Yun, the commander of the Eighth Army, to firmly control the entire military.
Now that everything has been mobilized, it's clear that everyone realizes that if Hui were to launch a second calamity war, the danger would likely be far greater than before.
At that point, the casualties might not just be a mere tens of thousands of the God Clan...
