Xu Long's face was somewhat distorted. Although the Body of Oblivion was incredibly powerful, the energy within the Haotian Mirror was also extremely vast. When it surged in, Xu Long himself endured immense pressure and pain.
But at this critical moment, he could not stop. The Magic Power circulating in his body had reached a peak, and he could only forcefully push through his meridians.
After the Magic Power throughout the body has circulated once, it will automatically connect with the laws of heaven and earth, allowing one's own energy to align with the heavens and earth. This is the opportunity for a cultivator to secretly harmonize with heaven and earth on the path of cultivation, a process from nothing to something.
Previously, one would seize spiritual energy for one's own use; after this, one would truly integrate into the world. Only in this way, upon reaching the Mahayana Stage, can one trigger extraordinary phenomena in the world and truly possess one's own Power of Laws.
Upon reaching the Mahayana Stage, they will no longer be ordinary cultivators, but among the strongest beings in the world, beings who can already see the path to immortality.
Therefore, the Tribulation Transcendence and the Mahayana are a watershed moment. Many cultivators cannot break through at this point and have already seen the end of their cultivation path.
Cultivators break through realms to expand their path to immortality. If they can't even pass the Mahayana Stage, how can they possibly see the path to immortality beyond?
Xu Long's understanding of the truth was already complete in the inscription. At this moment, all he needed to do was control his Magic Power and then break through his own shackles with all his might, spreading his Magic Power throughout his limbs and bones.
To merge oneself with heaven and earth, and to align one's will with the rules—this is the path of a great cultivator, this is the power of the Mahayana Stage!
As wave after wave of energy circulated within his body, Xu Long's stable realm began to rise, and as his realm increased, so did the Magic Power within his body.
Under the constant impact of Magic Power within his body, some spiritual energy was faintly gathering in the sky, and the atmosphere in the Yanhuang Divine Kingdom gradually became oppressive.
Xu Long felt his stagnant cultivation gradually loosening, and under the manipulation of his will, the core energy in the Haotian Mirror continued to surge out.
This is equivalent to refueling a speeding car; the immense energy caused the Magic Power within the body to surge, and the closed gate finally opened slightly.
The pent-up Magic Power surged into his meridians in an instant, and Xu Long's tense face finally relaxed slightly. A warm current flowed through his limbs and bones, and he felt as if he were immersed in the void, weightless.
The spiritual energy in the sky was drawn to the basement, and a phantom vortex of spiritual energy formed in the air.
Several divine senses swept out in the air, and the ladies looked at the underground chamber with some worry.
I thought my husband's progress after completing the mission was just a minor step, but now, seeing this extraordinary phenomenon, I realize it's no small matter; it's a sign that he's about to break through to the Mahayana Stage!
They couldn't help but feel a pang of worry for Xu Long.
If an ordinary cultivator were to break through a cultivation level, it certainly wouldn't cause such a big reaction, but Xu Long is clearly different. He has already triggered strange phenomena before even reaching the Mahayana Stage.
They knew that when a cultivator truly broke through and completely merged with heaven and earth, they would be subjected to Divine Punishment Lightning Tribulation.
Xu Long alone filled the threshold of the universe; the World's Origin Will could not allow such an unbalanced being to exist.
Only by surviving this ordeal can one truly glimpse the path to immortality and forge one's own path on the Great Dao.
In the underground chamber, Xu Long was still guiding the energy within the Haotian Mirror. He clearly felt his cultivation level rising, his shackles loosening, and the Magic Power flowing through his meridians becoming more rapid. When facing an enemy, his Magic Power was also more powerful.
The energy flowing through his body was compressed and refined layer by layer, and at this moment it was like Hundun in Xu Long's dantian.
The energy that was guided in was slightly heavier at the bottom, while the refined Magic Power, now pure and light, was at the top.
The two energies combined in this way without interfering with each other, creating a mysterious effect within the dantian, as if heaven and earth had been separated.
This is a clumsy imitation of the birth of heaven and earth by a cultivator when he first glimpsed the world.
After Xu Long comprehended the truth from the inscription, he understood how heaven and earth were born, how all things grow, and how the rules operate.
He used the information in the inscription to deduce his own path, which was the greatest gain in the Tomb of the Great Emperor, filling in the gaps in the world's rules.
If an ordinary cultivator were to have the opportunity to reach the Mahayana Stage, they wouldn't need such profound truths and laws. However, Xu Long is not an ordinary cultivator, and it would be a waste of his talents for him to use such truths to deduce the Mahayana Stage.
But this paves the way for the path to immortality, solidifies the foundation of the Mahayana Stage, and makes the most comprehensive preparations for the path to immortality.
Xu Long always thinks three steps ahead before taking a step. It is too early for him to deduce the Great Dao now, but he attaches great importance to it precisely because he is worried that his breakthrough will cause anomalies in the world's rules. Only by making comprehensive preparations can he firmly control his own destiny amidst these anomalies!
Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit!
In terms of comprehending the truth of the world and deducing the Great Dao, Xu Long has already surpassed many great cultivators. At present, there may not seem to be much difference between them. However, in the future, a high wall will clearly separate the two.
Xu Long's chosen path may seem difficult, but it will only become wider and wider on the path to immortality.
While ordinary cultivators may seem to have it easy, in realms beyond the Mahayana Stage, they can no longer see their own path to enlightenment.
Therefore, Xu Long's current goal is not just to break through to the Late Tribulation Transcendence Stage Realm. He is compressing his energy layer by layer in the hope that he can glimpse the true Mahayana Stage Realm!
The immense energy within the Haotian Mirror is more than enough for Xu Long to advance to a higher realm. After all, it was once a supreme treasure of the God, and the sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers contained within it are practically Celestial Phenomenon.
Xu Long sensed his cultivation and realm rising within the energy. His Mid Tribulation Transcendence Stage realm had already begun to loosen, and under the impact of the surging energy infusion, Xu Long's own Magic Power showed signs of becoming somewhat disordered.
He tightly controlled his mind, and his will continuously guided energy into the Haotian Mirror within his body. The signs of disorder became more and more obvious, but they did not disturb Xu Long in the slightest.
The strange phenomenon overhead grew larger and larger, the atmosphere in the air became increasingly oppressive and gloomy, and it seemed as if a colossal gaze had appeared in the sky, scrutinizing everything that was happening below from behind the clouds.
The oppressive aura descended, making it feel suffocating. After a sudden tremor of Magic Power within his body, Xu Long's mind exploded.
He has progressed from the Mid Tribulation Transcendence Stage Transcending Realm to the Late Tribulation Transcendence Stage!
But Xu Long did not stop at this moment. The shock caused by the Magic Power in his body was smoothed out in an instant, and the signs of Magic Power disorder were also suppressed.
Within the Haotian Mirror, immense energy was surging, and after being refined in his dantian, abundant Magic Power was rapidly circulating through his meridians.
In the Late Tribulation Transcendence Stage, they had already glimpsed the Celestial Phenomenon. The pair of scrutinizing eyes in the clouds grew increasingly sharp, and the atmosphere in the Yanhuang Divine Kingdom was extremely oppressive, as if the slightest carelessness would anger the gods.
Xu Long's will paid no heed to the strange phenomena in the sky. The energy he absorbed in the Haotian Mirror was not only its own vast energy, but also the celestial Celestial Phenomenon containing the laws of heaven and earth, the mysteries of which were simply indescribable.
Xu Long felt as if he saw countless rays of light in the Haotian Mirror. Each shining star was a star, and the brilliance emanating from them all came from the rivers and seas. The endless energy contained the entire world.
The spirituality born within is derived from heaven and earth. This is not merely a supreme treasure; like the Tomb of the Great Emperor, it is a small world with its own consciousness.
However, its Central Plains self-awareness had been erased by the Main God; otherwise, it wouldn't have been absorbed by Xu Long. Within the energy of the Haotian Mirror, Xu Long rapidly approached the shackles of the Mahayana Stage.
After completing each world mission, Xu Long always felt that his strength was insufficient, and this feeling was especially pronounced in the Legend of Mount Shu World.
So while he was in the Divine Hall, he thought about how to improve his strength so that he could continue to lead the situation in the next Reincarnation Temple.
The best option at this moment is of course to absorb the energy in the Haotian Mirror, but Xu Long does not want to break through at this point. If he were to break through in the Main World, it would definitely trigger Divine Punishment Lightning Tribulation, which would have some impact on the stability of the Yanhuang Divine Kingdom.
A faint intuition told him that the next Reincarnation Temple mission would not be easy, so he compressed the energy in the Haotian Mirror, refined it in his dantian, and then evenly distributed it throughout his body.
A great cultivator must Fusion himself with the world, reaching a state where he can borrow the laws of heaven and earth at any time. At this moment, Xu Long continuously compressed his energy, leaving his Magic Power within the meridians of his body.
To achieve a state of near-harmony between oneself and heaven and earth means that one's cultivation has actually reached the Mahayana Stage, but has not yet completely broken through the realm, allowing the Divine Punishment Lightning Tribulation to be drawn but not unleashed, while one is in a mysterious and profound state.
Old Yin Bi guessed that the Divine Punishment Lightning Tribulation during the Mahayana Stage was far beyond what ordinary Lightning Tribulation could compare to.
He is currently suppressing his cultivation level, firstly to further stabilize his realm and purify his Magic Power, so that he can strike more swiftly in battle.
Secondly, Xu Long needed to consider the stability of the Yanhuang Divine Kingdom in order to bring the Divine Punishment Lightning Tribulation into the next cycle of Reincarnation Temple missions.
Therefore, the energy surging within his body was transformed into Magic Power in his dantian. The power of the Body of Oblivion was revealed at this moment. No matter how much Magic Power of the Mahayana Stage surged within his body, Xu Long suppressed it with his physical body.
However, the Magic Power in the Haotian Mirror was still being output, Xu Long used it directly to temper his body without thinking.
Nowadays, cultivators in the cultivation world mainly focus on refining Qi, and rarely make progress in their physical bodies. However, when Xu Long embarked on the path of Qi refining, he did not abandon his physical body. His Body of Oblivion is different from other cultivators; his body originally possesses the characteristics of being immortal and indestructible.
Xu Long continued to refine the Body of Oblivion, allowing its energy to circulate directly within his body before being injected into his dantian for further refinement. As the energy from the Haotian Mirror surged in, a series of popping sounds occasionally erupted from Xu Long's powerful body.
As crackling sounds echoed through his limbs and bones, Xu Long's body slightly expanded and then shrank within a surge of energy.
At this moment, he seemed like a demon, his body extending with tremendous explosive power, containing an extremely terrifying force within this human body.
After being tempered by immense energy, the Body of Oblivion will become even more powerful, just like the World-Breaking Blade. Xu Long will also have absolute control over his own body.
The Magic Power in Xu Long's dantian had been refined countless times, and the aura within him was still gradually rising, but there were no signs of disorder. Everything seemed very stable, unlike when he had just entered the Late Tribulation Transcendence Stage Realm.
The will within the Haotian Mirror began to slowly emerge. As Xu Long absorbed it, the core energy within was already running low. The energy of an entire small world allowed Xu Long to advance a major level.
At this moment, the Haotian Mirror in his palm had lost its original power. The two layers of mirrors, which were originally clear and bright, had become blurry, and the mysterious light within them had dimmed to the point of being almost invisible.
The divine totem on the back has lost its vibrant life, and its ferocious face is now nothing more than a more detailed sculpture.
The immense energy within the Haotian Mirror was completely absorbed by Xu Long. Without the nourishment of this energy, even a supreme treasure would gradually decay and should return to the dust of history.
At this moment, Xu Long possessed a mysterious aura, which resonated with the Magic Power of heaven and earth, yet remained hidden within his body.
His cultivation level had already reached the Mahayana Stage, but it was forcibly suppressed by Xu Long, and his realm remained at the Late Tribulation Transcendence Stage. A mysterious and profound aura appeared on Xu Long's body.
He has now stepped one foot into the Mahayana Stage, but he knows that this is because he is controlling the flow of Magic Power and has not yet truly merged with heaven and earth.
Moreover, he had not yet drawn the Divine Punishment Lightning Tribulation, and had not truly and completely reached the Mahayana Stage stage.
The energy within the Haotian Mirror was indeed immense, allowing Xu Long to temper his body and steadily reach the edge of the Mahayana Stage.
Now, Xu Long only needs to draw down the Divine Punishment Lightning Tribulation to break through his cultivation level and show his skills among the true great cultivators.
He estimated that his combat power had increased significantly, and he could even hold a place among the Earth Immortal. What kind of earth-shattering power would he have when he entered the true Mahayana Stage!
As the energy fluctuations below rapidly subsided, the scrutinizing gaze from the clouds finally disappeared, and the spiritual energy gathered in the air began to slowly dissipate. After Xu Long withdrew his Mahayana Stage power, the strange phenomena in the world seemed to lose their strong support and vanished in an instant.
Xu Long opened his eyes in the underground chamber, a sharp light flashing in them. The moment his gaze appeared, it swept past the many obstacles above his head like lightning, aiming to pierce the sky.
The oppressive atmosphere in the air was instantly broken by that gaze, and the Yanhuang Divine Kingdom returned to its original stable state.
Xu Long slowly stood up in the secret chamber. The stars under the sky were reflected in his eyes. The Celestial Phenomenon that were originally in the Haotian Mirror now flashed by in Xu Long's eyes.
The deliberately suppressed realm made him lose the aura that came with the Mahayana Stage, but at this moment, Xu Long had already surpassed all Mahayana Stage, and he should be equivalent to a powerful Immortal Realm!
In the upcoming Reincarnation Temple missions, Xu Long first opened the weapon treasure chest, and sure enough, he found the Dragon-Soaring Treasured Sword inside.
