| Higher realm | Completing nine reversals grants the qualification to glimpse the Immortal Supreme Realm 453. |
Requirements and Mechanism
Immortal Realm cultivators must comprehend life from death and life from an extreme state of death. This process begins when the True Meaning of Death consumes a cultivator’s vitality, triggering the Immortal Realm Heavenly Tribulation 410 431.
Failure means genuine death: the cultivator’s flesh, true essence, and Divine Soul can be extinguished completely. Many Half-step Immortal Realm cultivators therefore restrain their Death Intent while they continue strengthening their foundations 410 431.
Life-and-Death Reversals
- First turn — The breakthrough into the realm itself: death consumes the body and soul before vitality returns and the cultivator is reborn 447 449 450.
- Subsequent turns — Each transformation repeats the reversal from extreme life into death and from death back into life 453 474.
- Third turn — Sheng Huai'an’s documented reversal began when immense life essence generated death energy; his successful return to vitality completed the third transformation 474 475.
- Fourth turn — The Chaos Nine Tribulation Lotus bypassed the normal life-and-death reversals, directly advancing Sheng Huai'an toward the Fourth Rotation 479.
- Ninth turn — Regarded as the absolute peak of the realm. Experts at this level can overwhelmingly suppress cultivators several turns below them 482 484.
Documented Entry
Sheng Huai'an accelerated his breakthrough by spending eighty million Slaughter Value, allowing the True Meaning of Death to consume his life essence at a far greater rate 447.
His flesh and blood were devoured until only golden bones and a fading Divine Soul flame remained. After his Divine Soul rekindled, his bones restored their immortal runes, flesh and blood regenerated, and the accumulated death energy returned into his body 447 449.
He then took the final step into the Immortal Realm and underwent its Heavenly Tribulation in the outer domain 450 451.
Properties
- Immortal Realm cultivators are not truly eternal; their lifespan is stated to be two epochs, twice that of Longevity Realm cultivators 458.
- Each turn represents a life-and-death transformation and a major increase in power; even a difference of three or four turns is described as an “insurmountable gulf” 447 484.
- The sixth turn is considered the level of an absolute star-domain overlord 447.
- The realm’s power is closely tied to Great Dao Laws, Divine Runes, immortal yuan force, physical refinement, and the durability of the Divine Soul 431 475.
- Supreme Divine Weapons can allow exceptional Immortal Realm cultivators to challenge opponents far above their own turn, though they do not erase the usual gap between turns 447 484.
