"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
"Bang!"
A series of muffled thuds echoed from the center of the inner city of the prefecture.
Vibrating the air.
Like ripples in the void, it spread throughout the entire Litian Prefecture City.
The sound could be heard throughout the vast city, which stretched for six hundred miles.
Like a heavy hammer, it struck the hearts of all cultivators, mortals, and even Demon Beast within the city.
Xu Xiong and the others on the Dharma Boat turned around almost instantly.
Their gazes widened in astonishment as they looked toward the source of the sound.
Their eyes were wide open.
Ye Xiaoyun's mouth gaped open, clearly realizing something, and she stammered incoherently.
"The Dao... the Dao Lord... he has emerged from seclusion!"
" The Dao Lord has emerged from seclusion!"
"That's right, this aura... it must belong to the Dao Lord!"
Jiang Yan's expression was equally panicked.
She was not yet born when the Dao Lord went into seclusion.
I grew up listening to the legends of the Dao Lord during my childhood, adolescence, and even youth.
Like Ye Xiaoyun, if one were to ask who he admired most in this life, it would naturally be the legendary Dao Lord.
The expressions of the city's residents and monks were even more exaggerated and fanatical.
If we're talking about Xu Xiong, Ye Xiaoyun is fairly familiar with Lu Li's past.
In the hearts of ordinary people and cultivators in the city.
Lu Li is practically a god-like being.
Single-handedly, he slew the rebellious king, quelled the demon's Demon Manor, founded the Litian, and governed the Western Continent.
To completely reignite the flame of humanity.
Such achievements are only heard of in legends and myths; they have never been seen in reality.
The cultivators were initially stunned, and immediately held their breath.
All eyes turned to where Lu Li was in seclusion.
As if waiting for something.
Above the sky.
Yinyang Qingfan's expression visibly shifted to one of surprise and anticipation.
It's strange.
She didn't know why she had any expectations.
It's only been a hundred years.
There was a strange mix of emotions, including a hint of nervousness.
This past century has been incredibly difficult for her.
Besides convincing himself, he also had to think about how to face Lu Li in the future.
Now, judging from the sounds, Lu Li is about to emerge from seclusion.
How should she face this...?
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The thumping sounds gradually turned into a deafening roar.
Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands of ordinary people and monks.
Under the gaze of various Demon Beast and alien races.
A dazzling golden phantom of a true dragon suddenly flew out.
The dragon's might was overwhelming, hovering above the city, its roar echoing through the heavens.
Immediately following, streaks of five-colored light burst forth.
Like flowing light, it illuminates the sky.
The Spiritual Power is rich and abundant.
With an aura that shook the entire city, a colossal Vajra Dharma Manifestation, measuring ten thousand meters in length, appeared out of thin air.
The sharp, diamond-like aura pierced the face.
The colossal image of the Dharma was almost solidified, its entire body made of crystal, with five-colored spiritual light constantly rotating.
The golden dragon phantom surrounded him, silencing the heavens and earth.
Everyone trembled slightly at that moment, completely stunned.
He stared dumbfounded at the colossal shadow of the Dharma form.
Even Yinyang Qingfan was stunned.
"This is... the Spirit Transformation Dharma Form?"
" Early Spirit Transformation... to possess such a Dharma form?!"
Yinyang Qingfan almost cried out in surprise.
No wonder she was so surprised.
Once a cultivator enters the Spirit Transformation, their Nascent Soul Divine Soul and divine spirit merge into one, transforming into Primordial Spirit that resides high in the Sea of Consciousness.
When engaging in magical combat with others, one can activate their Primordial Spirit, using Spiritual Power as a supplement, to release the Primordial Spirit Dharma Manifestation.
The strength of the Primordial Spirit Dharma Manifestation directly determines the combat power of the Spirit Transformation Divine Lord.
In the Early Spirit Transformation, the physical form is no more than a thousand meters long.
The length may reach 3,000 meters in the middle stage of construction, and up to 5,000 meters in the later stage.
The Great Perfection has an 8,000-meter span.
When have I ever heard anyone say that one can attain a ten-thousand-meter-tall Dharma form upon first entering the Spirit Transformation?
At this moment, Yinyang Qingfan was no longer surprised that Lu Li had broken through to the Spirit Transformation in a hundred years.
What surprised her was Lu Li's background and resources.
To be able to cultivate to such a state of perfect Spirit Transformation.
Not to mention, Lu Li's appearance was clearly not ordinary.
The five Spirit Root, the dragon's might is vast, and the Vajra surges.
All these unusual phenomena demonstrate the extraordinary nature of Lu Li's Dharma appearance.
This was just a pretense; she couldn't even imagine it.
If such a powerful Dharma body were to unleash its full combat power, how terrifying would that be?
"Buzz!"
The thousands of cultivators were deeply moved.
The Five-Colored Dragon Might Vajra Dharma Manifestation slowly opened its eyes.
His eyes were like the sun breaking through the clouds, or the bright moon in the sky.
As far as the eye could see, the world fell silent.
Five-colored divine light poured down from his eyes, sweeping across the six-hundred-mile-long megacity, over hundreds of thousands of cultivators, and over countless Demon Beast and alien races.
Everyone who was touched by that gaze felt a tremor run through their Divine Soul.
An indescribable sense of awe and fervor welled up within me.
" Dao Lord..."
I don't know who spoke first.
His voice was hoarse, and he was extremely devout.
The next second.
Hundreds of thousands of cultivators bowed and clasped their hands in unison, their voices like waves, shaking the heavens.
Congratulations to our Divine Lord on attaining the Divine Lordship!
Congratulations to our Divine Lord on attaining the Divine Lordship!
Congratulations to our Divine Lord on attaining the Divine Lordship!
"..."
The deafening shouts echoed throughout the city.
At this moment, Ten Thousand Demons in the entire Litian Prefecture City prostrated themselves on the ground, and all the cultivators bowed their heads.
The scale of the event was unprecedented in the Dao Court.
"Is this what it means to Spirit Transformation?"
"What a profound feeling! The Primordial Spirit can move, and the Dharma form can be maintained."
"Heaven and Earth... are usable!"
Looking down over the entire Litian Prefecture City, Lu Li a sense of wonder.
This feeling is extremely wonderful.
He didn't use his Divine Sense, yet he could see extremely far.
All the gazes emitted were controlled by the Primordial Spirit sitting cross-legged in the Sea of Consciousness.
It's as if the secrets of heaven and earth are entirely within one's grasp.
A single thought can stir up the winds and clouds; a single thought can reveal a thousand miles.
"These past hundred years haven't been wasted after all."
Deep within the city walls lies Lu Li's secluded retreat.
Lu Li, who was sitting cross-legged in the smooth hall, slowly opened his eyes.
With a thought, the overwhelming Dharma image was effortlessly retracted.
There was no longer any trace of Nascent Soul within his Dantian.
Only in the realm of Sea of Consciousness altar, a three-inch Primordial Spirit with eyebrows and eyes identical to his own slowly floated.
"Out!"
A soft shout.
The Primordial Spirit floated out.
They shrunk to the size of a human and stood before him.
He looked at the Primordial Spirit, Primordial Spirit looked at him.
His gaze was magical, as if he had gained a clone.
His thoughts and intentions were known to both his Primordial Spirit and others.
"The title of 'Divine Lord ' is truly well-deserved."
"Having cultivated to this point, how is there any difference between you and Earth Immortal?"
"Even if the physical body is destroyed, the Primordial Spirit can rebuild itself, either by possessing another body, cultivating the soul, or reincarnating as a spirit."
"Wonderful, wonderful."
Lu Li examined the Primordial Spirit before him.
His eyes were filled with admiration.
This century has truly been well spent.
Before going into seclusion, he was in the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
With the help of countless rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures from the Dao Court, he spent twenty years cultivating to the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
Later, it absorbed the tiger bones of the three tigers and the multi- Spirit Transformation Essence Blood nourished by the jade pendant.
He then spent another thirty years cultivating to the Nascent Soul Great Perfection.
Finally, they relied on the many spiritual treasures left behind by Zongzheng Lie.
It took him a full fifty years to attain the Divine Lord.
This past century... it hasn't been easy!
A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye, and Lu Li finally experienced the realization that time has no bearing on cultivation.
If it weren't for the Primordial Beginning timekeeping of this century, he probably would have thought only a month or so had passed.
As he was lost in thought, Lu Li's mind returned to him, and he felt a strange movement in his body. His eyes lit up.
"A century of time has proven the Divine Lord."
"Let me see what's different about today's jade pendant!"
