Rising Yang
Furthermore, Law Power can be replenished with elixirs, but the Dao body absolutely cannot. After all, to achieve the Purple Mansion, the Dao body must transform into a Dharma body under the blessing of the power of heaven and earth. Elixirs are mostly made from various medicinal materials and spiritual objects, which are fundamentally different from the Dao body. In fact, they will hinder the Dao body from transforming into a Dharma body.
Furthermore, since the beginning of cultivation, although there is a risk of failure and death in the stages of Mystery Opening, Qi Refinement, and Foundation Establishment, none of them can compare to the Purple Mansion. After all, once you reach the Purple Mansion, you can enter the Great Void and have great power. More importantly, there is the lifespan. The Mystery Opening has a lifespan of three Jiazi, the Qi Refinement Refining stage has a lifespan of three hundred years, and the Foundation Establishment has a lifespan of five hundred years. But once you reach the Purple Mansion, you can live for five thousand years. If there is someone in the Flourishing Wood, you can live for three thousand years in the Purple Mansion.
The Dao body that had sustained it for eight months was now finally beginning to crumble from within.
In the quiet room, Su Yao sat cross-legged, his face covered with fine, spiderweb-like cracks. He looked like a piece of white porcelain that had been hammered a thousand times but had not yet crumbled. From the depths of each crack, light shone through, barely holding his flesh and blood together.
This was under the condition that his body had not suffered any old injuries. If those cultivators whose bodies had been damaged and had not yet fully recovered were to reach this point, they would probably have collapsed halfway through and would not even have a chance to start over.
Cultivators dare not easily damage their Dao body, precisely because this Daoist Gate is so cruel: even with a perfect Dao body, progress is still difficult; if the Dao body is flawed, death is inevitable. This is because during a breakthrough, even a small change can affect the entire body.
At this moment, even Su Yao needed to be extremely cautious.
Soon, the Law Power of the Five Rosy Clouds Rising Yang Pill began to reach the twentieth level. With support, Su Yao gritted his teeth, changed the hand Method Formula, and his Immortal Foundation rose upwards once again.
Three more months passed, and the Immortal Foundation finally arrived at the top of the Twenty-Four Tower, before the gate of the Great Gate Palace.
To break through the Purple Mansion, Immortal Foundation begins at the Sea of Qi, first traversing the Twenty-Four Towers, then entering the Great Gate, and finally ascending into the Rising Yang.
At this moment, Immortal Foundation had already surpassed the twenty-fourth level. Although Su Yao's Dao body was on the verge of shattering outside, the twenty-fourth level inside was filled with dazzling light. From the outside, Su Yao's spine looked like a brilliant dragon winding upwards.
This is how the radiant light shines through the twenty-four-story building, and then the glow of the sunset illuminates the Great Gate.
Since the cultivators reached the Profound Realm and ingested Spiritual Qi Refinement to refine their Mystery Opening Realm, the Great Gate Sword has been locked away below the Rising Yang Tower, atop the Twenty-Fourth Floor.
Here, Su Yao cultivated for a while longer before his Immortal Foundation entered the Great Gate.
The moment he entered the Great Gate, Su Yao almost lost his composure and caused his Immortal Foundation to fall.
After a long while, he finally stabilized his Immortal Foundation and looked carefully into the Great Gate. This was the first time Su Yao had seen what the Great Gate looked like inside. It was pitch black, but in the very center was a seven-sided Prism that emitted red, orange, and yellow light!
It was Su Yao's biggest trump card, that Prism.
He spared a moment of his attention to look towards his Qi Sea, only to find that the Prism was gone. Su Yao's Immortal Foundation had arrived at the Great Gate.
At this moment, Su Yao could not spend too much time considering the matter at hand, and could only continue to activate his Immortal Foundation.
Then, first came the endless rosy dawn, then the rainbow, and finally a total of eighty-one streams of colorful light burst forth.
Aside from the Prism, the originally pitch-black Great Gate now displays a colorful halo.
As Law Power continuously poured into the Great Gate within its Qi Sea, five days later, the originally pitch-black Great Gate was completely transformed into a kaleidoscope of colors.
Once the colors within the Great Gate had completely stabilized and stopped fading, Su Yao once again activated his Immortal Foundation to begin his journey.
The five Five Rosy Clouds Rising Yang Pill still had about 40% of their medicinal power remaining, enough for Su Yao to push his Immortal Foundation into the Rising Yang. Now he only needed to pay attention to his Dao Body. As long as it didn't break, once his Divine Ability were complete, he would overcome the Boundless Ignorance, and his Dharma Body would be fully formed. Then everything would be fine.
Time passed unnoticed, and even with the support of the Five Rosy Clouds Rising Yang Pill, Su Yao's Law Power was now almost depleted.
Suddenly, what I had sensed with my spiritual awareness—a place that was pitch black—saw a burst of light ahead.
Su Yao hurriedly activated his Immortal Foundation and rushed forward.
Before long, Su Yao activated his Immortal Foundation and arrived at this place. He saw a bright world, and apart from a high platform and the diamond-shaped Prism on it, there was nothing else.
Upon seeing the Prism, Su Yao glanced at the Great Gate below. Sure enough, the Prism had vanished again, disappearing before him once more.
Before there was time for further reflection, the Immortal Foundation, urged on by Su Yao, arrived on the high platform.
This is the Spirit Platform!
But Su Yao was now in a dilemma. The Prism was occupying the very center of his Spirit Platform, but according to the "Rosy Cloud Feather Wanderer Star Chapter":
"When Immortal Foundation Rising Yang the heavens, they should be positioned within the Spirit Platform to establish their foundation."
The Immortal Foundation must reside in the very center of the Spirit Platform to govern the Rising Yang and guide the interaction between heaven and earth.
He tried to use his mind to guide his Immortal Foundation around the Prism, but the center of his Spirit Platform was already firmly occupied, and the feathered robe formed by the rosy light lingered on the edge of the high platform, unable to settle down.
Just then, the Prism trembled slightly, and a very faint rainbow light shot out from the third side of the pillar, landing on the side of the center of the Spirit Platform, clearing out a small foothold for him.
Without further hesitation, Su Yao steadily placed the Immortal Foundation upon it.
Although not in the exact center, it was the best position that the Prism had given him.
Then the Immortal Foundation spontaneously activated, radiating brilliant light!
In the quiet room, the rosy light seemed to boil.
The rainbow light between Su Yao's brows grew stronger, and the jade box in front of him opened out of thin air. A fist-sized, purplish-red gelatinous substance slowly floated out of the box. This was the "Purple Canopy Morning Rosy Clouds Marrow" that Daozheng had prepared for him.
As soon as the Purple Canopy Morning Rosy Clouds Marrow Essence appeared, the entire quiet room was enveloped in a faint purple-red halo.
The halo was not dazzling, but rather gentle like twilight and morning mist. Wherever it passed, Su Yao's cracked body emitted extremely faint hissing sounds, as if a long-parched, cracked riverbed had finally received its first spring rain.
Following the Secret Method recorded in the "Rosy Cloud Feather Wanderer Star Chapter", he circulated his Law Power and slowly guided the cloud marrow to his brow.
The moment the marrow touched the skin, it transformed into an extremely fine wisp of purplish-red light, disappearing into the center of the brow and heading towards the Rising Yang Mansion.
When the Purple Canopy Morning Rosy Clouds Marrow arrived in front of the Spirit Platform of the Rising Yang Mansion, Su Yao did not hesitate. He activated his Method Formula, and the spiritual object immediately transformed into a ball of purple qi, enveloping the "Rosy Cloud Feather Wanderer".
"Rosy Cloud Feather Wanderer" was now tinged with purple, making her feathered robes even more dazzling.
"Sensing the interplay of Rainbow Clouds and shadow, morning glow and evening rainbow, feathered robes fluttering, towering buildings gleaming, all come to protect and reflect upon it. The rainbow and rosy hues illuminate the inner essence, untouched by the five decays, unaffected by the five calamities, life and death follow their transformations, no longer causing harm. The Rainbow Clouds hues are one, eternally bound without end."
As Su Yao circulated his Cultivation Method, his Immortal Foundation began to constantly change. Seeing this, Su Yao continued to form hand seals and whispered:
"With purple canopy condensing into marrow, guided by the morning glow, and the rosy light illuminating the palace, I shed my feathers and ascend to the heavens, wishing to rise with the rosy clouds and unite with the profound origin."
"Rosy Cloud Feather Wanderer" began to change shape continuously, and the colors on it gradually changed.
The purple purple qi transformed from the Purple Canopy Morning Rosy Clouds Marrow Glow continuously dissipated, completely surging into the Immortal Foundation, and the scriptures that Su Yao had memorized since childhood were continuously recited.
