My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World

Chapter 155 Rebuilding the Foundation

When Zhao Xuan realized this characteristic, his mind flashed like lightning, and in an instant, he clearly outlined the path of advancement that Luo Xuan longed to pursue: starting from the initial ordinary flames, the flames transformed into fire crows, the fire crows transformed into three-legged fire crows, and the three-legged fire crows transformed into three-legged golden crows.

That is, three evolutions lead to the Primordial Golden Immortal, and three thousand differentiations lead to the Primordial Grand Luo Immortal.

However, the flames that Luo Xuan contemplated had a fatal weakness—they lacked staying power, making it almost impossible for them to transform into three-legged fire crows.

Left with no other choice, Luo Xuan had to prematurely differentiate the three-seven species and instead compensate for the quality deficiencies by continuously increasing the number of fire crows.

Nevertheless, this strategy of winning by sheer numbers still gave Luo Xuan the ability to fight opponents of higher levels.

However, if the essence of the flame cannot be transformed and sublimated, one's cultivation level will be greatly limited, making it difficult to achieve breakthrough progress.

However, such a foundation might be an insurmountable chasm for Luo Xuan, but it is not an insurmountable problem for Zhao Xuan.

As Zhao Xuan's thoughts stirred slightly, the flame formed from divine essence seemed to be given life, rapidly changing shape.

In the blink of an eye, a massive three-legged fire crow, as large as a mountain, suddenly appeared before them.

The enormous three-legged fire raven stood tall and proud, its body radiating intense heat, and emitted a joyful and exhilarating cry.

The cry was like a thunderclap, resounding through the sky, and the temperature within the Fire Crow Sect suddenly rose by a full three-tenths of an inch.

However, the majestic giant three-legged fire crow only existed for a brief three breaths before gradually dissipating like a phantom, instantly splitting into three thousand smaller fire crows.

These small fire crows circled and danced in the air. Although there were many of them, they were obviously much less impressive than the previous imposing giant three-legged fire crow.

Clearly, this was a direct manifestation of Luo Xuan's flames losing momentum. If this giant three-legged fire crow could maintain its stable form and not undergo such drastic changes, then Luo Xuan would probably be only one step away from the coveted Hunyuan realm.

You must give up something in order to gain something. This is a profound truth, seemingly simple and clear, but how many people in the world can truly understand the mysteries it contains?

The path to becoming a Primordial Golden Immortal is extremely difficult. That is why great cultivators with great wisdom and perseverance chose to create the Primordial Golden Immortal realm as a transition and buffer.

The so-called Hunyuan Golden Immortal is someone who first relinquishes the position of Daluo Golden Immortal in order to obtain Hunyuan power.

Once the time is right, he will regain the power of the Great Luo and ultimately achieve the supreme Dao fruit of the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal.

The three thousand blazing fire crows before him represent Luo Xuan's Great Luo Heart.

As soon as the thought flashed through Zhao Xuan's mind, 2,999 of the 3,000 fire crows suddenly exploded violently, turning into countless balls of blazing flames that floated erratically in mid-air.

At the same time, Zhao Xuan's aura also plummeted like a flood breaking through a dam, instantly dropping to a level below that of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

However, once one attains the realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, it is eternal and can never be reversed.

Half of his true spirit had already been entrusted to the Heavenly Dao space.

At this moment, its aura suddenly plummeted, threatening to fall out of the Great Luo realm. The true spirit entrusted to the Heavenly Dao could no longer sit still. It began to continuously draw energy from the world's origin contained in the Heavenly Dao space and transmit it down through the void to repair its damaged foundation.

Faced with this surging torrent of power, Zhao Xuan did not choose to absorb it for his own use. Instead, he controlled the last remaining fire crow, making it begin to devour the chaotic flames around it.

The world's origin from the Heavenly Dao space was continuously guided down and integrated into the fire crow's body. The fire crow's foundation was insufficient, and every time it devoured a ball of flame, it felt as if it was about to be burst by the flame.

However, the origin of the world undoubtedly became the fusion agent. Every time the fire crow was about to burst, it was strengthened by the origin of the world, enabling it to perfectly absorb that ball of flame.

The fire crow methodically devoured and absorbed the scattered flames.

As this process progresses, its size gradually increases.

After successfully absorbing a thousand flames, its body had become as large as a mountain.

When its body became as large as a towering mountain, absorbing more flames could no longer increase its size.

However, the fire crow continued to devour the flames, and with its continued absorption of the flames, the flames on the fire crow's body became increasingly lively.

After absorbing all two thousand flames, the flames that had been burning fiercely on the fire crow's feathers began to slowly recede.

As if it had come to life, it gradually became like a liquid, clinging tightly to the fire crow's body.

The fire crow's original form was entirely black, and apart from its eyes that emitted a burning red light, it was almost identical to an ordinary crow.

However, it is always surrounded by raging flames, so it is called the fire crow.

But after this transformation, the flames subsided and tightly covered its feathers, making this fire crow resemble a mythical crow with crimson feathers and eyes like flames.

However, the transformation process of the fire crow is not yet over.

However, the world's origin, which originated from the Heavenly Dao Space, gradually slowed down until it came to a complete standstill.

The key reason for this situation is that Luo Xuan's current realm is only at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.

The so-called "one certificate for life, never to be revoked" is not without cost; it requires a massive amount of energy to support its implementation.

The world's will in the divine realm is unwilling to even convert spiritual energy, let alone actively provide energy to assist cultivators in their recovery.

In fact, all of these crucial energies are obtained by the practitioners themselves.

Unlike other worlds, the Divine Realm has its own unique characteristics.

For example, in the realm of immortals and humans, the true spirits have existed since the beginning, and all living things in the world are merely projections of these true spirits.

In the primordial land, living beings and true spirits were one and inseparable.

However, the situation is quite different in the world of gods. The beings here will only begin to condense their true spirits after they have successfully achieved the Great Luo Realm.

Moreover, the true spirit was divided into two halves, one half of which resided in the Heavenly Dao space, while the other half remained within itself.

Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that the world will itself has no wisdom; it merely maintains the inherent order of the universe unconsciously and is not worthy of being called the world will.

Therefore, they naturally wouldn't actively hunt down those chaotic beasts.

In the world of gods, the reason why the world's will possesses astonishing wisdom and is able to actively capture incredibly powerful chaotic beasts is because of the existence of the true spirits of a large number of cultivators who have surpassed the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

These true spirits contain the wisdom and insights of countless practitioners throughout their lives. They intertwine and merge, ultimately constructing a collective will of pan-ideological groups.

This collective will is the will of the world, or perhaps the way of heaven.

In the beginning of the creation of the Heavenly Dao, it did indeed have a certain degree of selfishness.

After all, the number of individual consciousnesses involved in its construction is relatively small at this time, so the true spirits of certain practitioners may have a more significant impact on the will of the entire world.

However, as time went on, more and more cultivators successfully broke through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and their true spirits were continuously integrated into the world's will.

As a result, the influence of a single cultivator's consciousness on the overall will of the world gradually weakens, causing the Heavenly Dao to gradually exhibit a seemingly selfless external image.

Even though the world's will has developed to be so vast and complex, in the final analysis, it is still formed by the convergence of the true spirits of cultivators at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level and above.

This means that every cultivator at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level or above holds a portion of the world's power.

Whenever the World Will successfully captures a Chaos Beast, a ceremony to reward those who have made contributions will be held.

The so-called reward is the origin of the world, which is transformed from the chaotic beast.

However, this reward is not simply given directly; it still exists in the Heavenly Dao space, becoming the energy for their true spirits to be reborn after their calamity.

The shorter the time a cultivator has spent as a Great Luo Golden Immortal and the lower their cultivation level, the less assistance they provide to the world's will, and consequently, the fewer rewards they receive and the less world essence they accumulate.

Conversely, those cultivators who have practiced for countless years and whose realm is unfathomable may record more of the world's origins.

If Zhao Xuan hadn't used his supernatural powers to immobilize Luo Xuan's true spirit, then when Luo Xuan died, his true spirit would have followed the connection between true spirits and traveled all the way to the Heavenly Dao Space, where it would have merged with the true spirits there.

After a period of rest and recuperation, it can be revived.

However, the trajectory of fate changed because of Zhao Xuan.

Zhao Xuan not only successfully immobilized Luo Xuan's true spirit, but also cleverly used the substitution tactic to quietly take over the position that originally belonged to Luo Xuan, without even the true spirit in the Heavenly Dao Space being aware of it.

When Luo Xuan's divine essence, which was under Zhao Xuan's control, was damaged, the Heavenly Dao did not notice and descended the world's origin according to the established procedure, attempting to repair it.

However, what Zhao Xuan sought was not to repair his damaged divine essence by relying on the origin of the world. Instead, he aimed to completely merge the already separated divine essence, thereby solidifying the foundation of his own laws.

The path of spiritual practice is profound and mysterious. The path of visualization is to concretize obscure and ethereal things into visible and tangible forms.

Take the three thousand fire crows for example; they are actually formed by the convergence of three thousand blazing fire laws.

At this moment, what Zhao Xuan needs to do is to make these three thousand flame laws merge into one, and then condense into an even more powerful law.
