What is an immortal?

Chapter 1075 - 1040: Chaos Dao Fruit

Yuan Ming heard this, and smiled lightly, then placed his palm on the corpse of the Youtian Fire Phoenix.

A gleam flickered in his palm, and the Tao Divine Ability of the Youtian Fire Phoenix, along with other Dao Seals, were slowly drawn into Yuan Ming's body as if pulled by an invisible force.

The Tao Divine Ability of the Youtian Fire Phoenix was called "Flame Killer God." Once unleashed, each flame conjured could cause earth-shattering explosions, powerful enough to tear the void apart.

During his battle with the Youtian Fire Phoenix, Yuan Ming suffered greatly, but now, after completely absorbing and comprehending this power, he discovered it had a second use.

He could preemptively inject the flames created by "Flame Killer God" into objects infused with Spiritual Power and trigger their detonation at any moment with just a thought.

Moreover, the more abundant the Spiritual Power within the object, the more powerful the final explosion, even surpassing the originally exhibited power of "Flame Killer God."

As the Youtian Fire Phoenix's Divine Ability was fully devoured by Yuan Ming, his aura gradually returned to calm.

He intended to exchange a few words with Xi Ying, but suddenly felt a strong surge well up from within. Mana roiled violently through his meridians, as if about to break through his body.

Before Yuan Ming could react, he felt the Mana within him swept up by a raging storm, surging wildly, unrestrained by his will, directly launching a fierce assault on the Mahayana Realm barrier.

Yuan Ming's expression changed abruptly. He hurriedly mobilized all his Mana, attempting to stabilize this turbulent power.

Yet all efforts were like cows into the sea, the Mana still flooded like an uncontrolled torrent, rushing toward the insurmountable threshold.

"Since it cannot be stopped, then follow the will of heaven and give it my all!"

A flash of resolve passed through Yuan Ming's eyes. He no longer tried to restrain this power; instead, he harnessed all his will, urging his Mana, charging towards the Mahayana Realm's gate.

He took out an Enlightenment Pill and without hesitation, swallowed it, beginning the full refinement of the elixir's power to aid his Mana's breakthrough.

As the elixir entered his stomach, it instantly transformed into a warm current, rising from his Dantian, the heat gradually increasing, like a blazing fire, seemingly about to ignite all his blood.

Years of accumulation melted like spring snow at this moment, becoming the nourishment for his transformation.

When he felt as if he were in the midst of intense flames, about to be completely incinerated, the Mana within his body began to undergo a qualitative change.

In an instant, Yuan Ming felt his body lighten, as if breaking free from the constraints of the Physical Body, merging with the Five Elements Power of heaven and earth.

Five Elements Power permeated his Physical Body like a light rain, intertwining with his flesh, forming a marvelous connection.

This feeling was both unfamiliar and familiar. Yuan Ming knew this was the sign of the Five Elements Undying Body he had long awaited.

At this moment, his Physical Body completed a high-level transformation, reaching an undying state under the nourishing Mana.

Unlike those Body Cultivations who rely on powerful Life Force for rebirth, Yuan Ming's Five Elements Undying Body uses the Five-Elements Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth as sustenance.

As long as the Spiritual Energy keeps flowing, his physical form can continue to regenerate.

Yuan Ming was overjoyed, feeling the fusion of spirit and flesh, sensing an unprecedented lightness.

Just then, above Yuan Ming's head, the wind and clouds changed drastically, and a howling wind roared like a knife.

The originally bright sky was devoured at an amazing speed by a layer of thick dark clouds stretching for hundreds of miles. These clouds were dense and deep, with flashes of blue-purple light within, like the prelude to a thunderstorm about to erupt.

Beneath the dark clouds, the void seemed cloaked by an invisible weight, even the air felt heavy, almost solid, making it difficult to breathe.

Yuan Ming looked up at the rolling clouds, seeing layers of clouds flowing, forming spectacular circular cloud rings, layered and gathering towards the center, ultimately condensing into a deep, dark Thunder Pond.

"Is this the legendary Five Elements Thunder Tribulation? It appears different from what Daoist Mu described." Though puzzled, Yuan Ming felt more determined and resolute.

Before the words were finished, a muffled thunder came from deep within the clouds, like the roar of an ancient beast, shaking to the core.

Immediately after, the black Thunder Pond lit up successively with blue, red, yellow, gold, and blue hues, a Thunder Punishment Array of ancient aura emerged in the center, flashing a dazzling azure light.

"Wood Punishment Tribulation Thunder," Yuan Ming silently recited.

A blue light Thunder Column adorned with countless electric filaments descended like divine punishment, tearing through the void, heading straight for Yuan Ming.

At that moment, the Five Elements Dao Fruit within Yuan Ming suddenly began to operate on its own, releasing an eager War Intent as if welcoming this challenge.

Yuan Ming smiled proudly, choosing not to evade but to fully activate the Five Elements Dao Fruit.

In the next instant, the Dao Fruit Gourd, imbued with the Wood Emperor True Intent in his Dantian, burst forth with bright azure light. It spewed out from the gourd mouth, forming a stout azure Thunder Column that shot out from Yuan Ming and soared into the sky.

The two azure lightning bolts collided abruptly in the sky, exploding into blinding azure light. In the burst of light, numerous lightning rays shot out, forming a massive electric arc covering hundreds of miles.

Beneath the arcs of electricity, countless tiny bolts of lightning rained down like a storm, stirring up ten thousand paths of fiery trees and silver flowers.

Yuan Ming sat calmly within this woven storm of lightning, appearing completely unfazed and undisturbed.

The tribulation of thunder did not pause; one clap of thunder after another exploded continuously deep in the heavens. The roiling Thunder Pond injected plasma into the Thunder Array, lighting up four Thunder Pillars in red, yellow, gold, and blue, which straightened and struck towards Yuan Ming.

Within Yuan Ming's body, the Five Elements Dao Fruit activated once again, and the corresponding four Thunder Pillars shot skyward, colliding fiercely with the falling Thunder Pillars.

Amidst the thundering roar, eight Thunder Pillars turned into electric sparks, scattering down like rain.

"Five Elements Thunder Tribulation, is this all there is?" Yuan Ming thought with a slight sense of surprise.

Just as the thought crossed his mind, a massive pillar of lightning interwoven with five colors descended from the Nine Heavens, its power far surpassing the previous ones, and its speed astonishingly fast.

In the haste, the Five Elements Dao Fruit couldn't fully unleash its power and could only summon its strength with difficulty. The five Thunder Pillars shot out together, colliding upwards.

This time, under the bombardment of the Five-colored Tribulation Lightning, the five Thunder Pillars successively exploded, turning into thick electric arcs, scattering in all directions.

The force of the Five-colored Tribulation Lightning did not diminish; though its speed slowed slightly, it still relentlessly fell towards Yuan Ming.

At this critical moment, the Primordial Dao Seal within Yuan Ming activated, and a massive Seven-Colored Vortex gathered above his head, like a giant mouth trying to swallow the descending Five-colored Tribulation Lightning.

The Five-colored Tribulation Lightning crashed into the Seven-Colored Vortex, instantly erupting into an explosive roar. Countless Five-Colored Electric Lights burst out, as if to shred the Chaos Vortex apart.

However, the Seven-Colored Vortex was unusually tenacious, with its seven-colored light intertwining and colliding with the five-colored thunder, gradually wearing down the power of the tribulation lightning.

Until all the lightning poured down, the Seven-Colored Vortex still stood firm, forcefully swallowing up all the tribulation lightning.

For a long time, the clouds in the sky remained condensed but no longer emanated the roars of ancient beasts, nor showed signs of thunderous bombardment.

Suddenly, a bright light burst out from the black Thunder Pond, with five-colored flowing light spilling out, illuminating the layered dark clouds into a Five-Colored Auspicious Cloud. A vast and pure Power of Dao cascaded down like a waterfall.

Without Yuang Ming's prompting, the Primordial Dao Seal automatically operated, greedily devouring the downpour of Power of Dao.

The Five Elements Dao Fruit also moved to greet the gift of the Dao, yet it absorbed only a tiny fraction of the Primordial Dao Seal's bounty, while other Dao Seals could only savor the aftertaste of the Dao.

As the Power of Dao continued to be absorbed, the Primordial Dao Seal underwent a wondrous transformation.

The originally distinct seven-colored light began to blur, with the differences in hues becoming increasingly difficult to discern.

Like the blending of colors, the seven-colored light, soaked in the Power of Dao, fused into a grayish-black chaotic hue.

At the moment when the chaotic hue was completely formed, an unprecedented devouring force erupted from the Primordial Dao Seal, forming an inward-collapsing Chaos Vortex within Yuan Ming's Dantian.

No matter how far or near, all Dao Seals were unhidden in the face of this power, mercilessly drawn towards the vortex center, even the Five Elements Dao Fruit was no exception.

Yuan Ming watched this scene with extraordinary calmness.

He recalled the last time a Dao Seal was devoured by the Primordial Dao Seal, fully aware that these Dao Seals would not be truly refined, thus there was no panic in his heart.

He watched quietly, waiting for the final evolution of the Chaos Vortex.

As the Dao Seals continued to merge, the gray-black light within the Chaos Vortex grew increasingly bright, seemingly about to overflow, yet was always firmly locked within the vortex.

After a moment, the Chaos Light began to withdraw, gradually condensing into a brand-new Dao Seal.

This Dao Seal was shaped like a "卍" symbol, its surface covered with a chaotic sheen, leisurely rotating as if a chaotic nebula was slowly swirling.

Yuan Ming merely glanced at it and could no longer avert his gaze.

His Divine Thought seemed deeply attracted by this Dao Seal, with all his thoughts being drawn in, as if he were situated in a boundless chaotic void.

"Chaos Dao Fruit."

Yuan Ming naturally thought of this name in his mind.

This was his Tao Divine Ability, a commanding divine skill far surpassing the Primordial Dao Seal and even the Five Elements Dao Fruit, capable of utterly crushing all Spiritual Power in the world, condensing it into Chaotic Power.

At the moment of comprehending the Tao Divine Ability, Yuan Ming finally crossed the barrier and stepped into the Mahayana Realm.

The Five-Colored Auspicious Cloud in the sky remained unswollen, and five-colored spiritual energy transformed into rainbows, rising from his body. Three clusters of golden flowers bloomed atop his head, swaying gracefully, then returned to the Void momentarily.

Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, Five Qi Gathering, Mahayana Phenomenon, were fully displayed.
