Defying the Heavens in Comprehension, Creating the Grand Destiny Art, Shocking Lord Tongtian

For the next full thousand years, Hongxuan did nothing else but focus on the Destiny Compass.

Yet even after a thousand years of comprehension,

Hongxuan had only grasped more of the mysteries of destiny, and his Law of Destiny had increased by just a tiny amount.

As for the divine ability he had envisioned, the Grand Destiny Art, there was not even the slightest trace of it.

Even Hongxuan found it unbelievable.

With his heaven-defying comprehension, understanding the Law of Destiny was already so difficult. Would those with ordinary comprehension not stand even less of a chance?

Fortunately, those thousand years had not been wasted.

Although he had not achieved his goal, his gains were considerable.

The aura of destiny he had comprehended actually possessed an inconceivable effect.

If used well, its effects would be no weaker than those top-tier divine abilities.

"A thousand years have passed. I can't keep wasting time on the Destiny Compass, or I'll be putting the cart before the horse."

"Perhaps my realm is too low, preventing me from comprehending its essence. Cultivation realm must still come first!"

"I'll break through to the Profound Immortal realm first!"

After a thousand years of accumulation, his foundation had grown even deeper.

With a thought from Hongxuan, he broke through the bottleneck almost effortlessly and advanced smoothly.

He had finally attained the Profound Immortal realm.

At the same time, an unfathomable aura radiated from Hongxuan's body.

His temperament became even more exceptional.

He was truly extraordinary.

Having advanced successfully, his next step was to break through to the fifth transformation of the Hongxuan Body Refinement Art.

Because he had previously consumed the Life Source Fruit, his bodily origin had improved immensely, and his physical body had become even stronger.

The Hongxuan Body Refinement Art had long since reached the great completion of the fourth transformation.

If not for the shackles of his cultivation realm, the Body Refinement Art would have broken through long ago.

Fortunately, Hongxuan had made thorough preparations. He had long understood every matter that required attention when breaking through to the fifth transformation of the Body Refinement Art.

He circulated the Hongxuan Body Refinement Art and relied on his powerful will.

One by one, he resolved the problems encountered during the breakthrough.

Time passed once more.

Until one day.

A sudden crack exploded in Hongxuan's mind.

It was like thunder rumbling through the nine heavens.

As though he had broken through some kind of shackle, his entire body immediately erupted with an incomparably terrifying aura that spread in every direction.

Even with ample preparation,

Hongxuan still spent many years before he "strenuously" achieved his breakthrough.

At the same time,

within Hongxuan's mind, his soul released endless divine light.

It seemed to be undergoing a world-shaking transformation.

Buzz!

His entire soul underwent a transformative cleansing from the inside out.

It had originally merely been an acquired soul, but it had now successfully transformed into an Innate Soul.

His True Spirit transformed along with it.

It was no longer like before, when even a slight attack could cause it to scatter into ashes.

Sacred and majestic.

Yet also so indestructible.

Now, as long as an attack did not exceed Hongxuan's realm, it could not completely erase his True Spirit.

One could well imagine

just how great an improvement this advancement of his physical body was for Hongxuan.

Most incredible of all,

the aura of destiny he had comprehended over the previous thousand years now also affected the state of his True Spirit.

It caused Hongxuan's destiny to undergo a transformation without him even realizing it.

Even Hongxuan himself only half understood the mysteries within.

This made Hongxuan attach even greater importance to the Destiny Compass and the Eternal Dao Art.

It had even reached a level second only to the importance he placed on improving his cultivation realm.

Some vague voice seemed to be telling him

that if he persisted in comprehending destiny, great opportunities awaited him in the future.

"Forget it. I'll take things one step at a time!"

"Setting my sights too high may affect my state of mind."

"If it turns into an obsession, that would be even worse!"

Hongxuan adjusted his mindset and consolidated his cultivation realm.

On Three Immortals Island, the Three Xiao Sisters and Zhao Gongming had long since ended their secluded cultivation.

Yunxiao and Zhao Gongming had successfully advanced to the late Grand Golden Immortal realm.

Meanwhile, Qiong Xiao and Bixiao had also reached the middle Grand Golden Immortal realm.

They were no longer far from becoming Grand Luo Golden Immortals.

As long as they advanced step by step, they would surely succeed one day.

"Over a thousand years have passed, yet Hongxuan still hasn't emerged from seclusion. Could something have happened?"

Bixiao occasionally looked toward the place where Hongxuan was in seclusion, her expression somewhat worried.

"With Hongxuan's talent, becoming a Profound Immortal shouldn't be difficult for him."

"He's probably creating some mysterious divine abilities and techniques again."

Yunxiao understood Hongxuan's personality quite well.

Those immensely powerful yet bizarre and unpredictable divine abilities had all been created by Hongxuan himself.

She believed that in the future, Hongxuan's methods would only become more numerous.

It was perfectly normal for him to spend a long time on them.

They simply had to get used to it.

Three Immortals Island.

In a valley at its very center,

the Three Xiao Sisters, Hongxuan, and Zhao Gongming had all gathered there.

Then Yunxiao took out the partially refined Ancient Tree of Life and immediately tossed it out.

The next moment,

the Ancient Tree of Life rapidly expanded and fiercely rooted itself at the center of the valley.

It grew wildly.

Before long, it had returned to the state it had been in on the mysterious Immortal Island.

It emitted an extremely dense aura of life.

Even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the surrounding area rose dramatically.

"Haha, with such an extraordinary spiritual root suppressing our fortune, Three Immortals Island will surely grow better and better in the future!"

Zhao Gongming looked at the Ancient Tree of Life without the slightest hint of covetousness. Instead, he laughed heartily.

He was truly overjoyed that his sisters had obtained such a great opportunity.

"We still have to thank Hongxuan for everything!"

"We're family. There's no need to keep thanking each other!"
