Chapter 18 Absorbing Pangu Jade Marrow to Enhance One's Foundation
After the sharing ended, Wanshou Yuanjun opened her eyes with a gratified smile on her face.
The aura emanating from Zhen Yuanzi's true form gradually subsided, but the immense aura of a newly ascended Daluo, with its profound and unparalleled foundation, was like an ancient divine mountain awakening, permeating and enveloping the entire Wuzhuang Temple, causing Hongyun to feel a pang of fear.
Hongyun was both surprised and delighted as she carefully sensed the immense pressure emanating from Zhen Yuanzi, a pressure that was no less powerful than that of Wanshou Yuanjun, and even more profound due to the earth's inherent characteristics.
He sincerely praised, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on your great progress in cultivation, your dispelling of illusions, and your attainment of the Great Luo Dao Fruit! Truly a cause for celebration!"
Qingfeng Mingyue quickly bowed again, her voice trembling with excitement: "Congratulations, Master (in his true form) on attaining the Great Luo Dao!"
Wanshou Yuanjun smiled, but her expression immediately became extremely solemn.
His gaze swept over Hongyun and the two young disciples, and he said in a deep voice, "The greatest gain this time is not the breakthrough in cultivation."
He stretched out his hand, and a flash of blue light appeared in his palm, revealing a blue jade bottle made from the most refined branches of the ginseng fruit tree.
The jade bottle appeared simple and unadorned, but the moment it appeared, it naturally exuded a supreme aura that made even a primordial god like Hongyun feel a tremor in his soul and couldn't help but want to bow down in worship.
Ancient, vast, supreme and noble, as if facing the very origin of heaven and earth!
Even Zhen Yuanzi's true form, who had just broken through to the Great Luo realm and whose aura was not yet stable, experienced another violent fluctuation in his aura, conveying an uncontrollable desire and excitement.
"This is……?"
Hongyun frowned, his face extremely solemn, staring intently at the jade bottle. He felt that the aura there resonated strongly with some of the oldest, most vague, and most sublime imprints deep within his own inherited memories.
He searched diligently for the fragments of memory originating from the source, when suddenly, his body trembled violently, his eyes flashed with an unbelievable, dazzling light, and his voice became dry and hoarse with extreme shock and awe:
"This...this aura...ancient, supreme, containing unparalleled creation...could it be...the legendary Pangu Jade Marrow, a supreme sacred object formed from the essence of the Father God's spine, containing the primordial power that created heaven and earth?!"
Lord Wanshou was not surprised that Hongyun recognized the item; all innate gods and demons possessed inherited memories, though the depth and detail varied. He nodded solemnly in confirmation, "Fellow Daoist, you have insight! It is indeed Pangu Jade Marrow."
Upon receiving the definitive answer, Hongyun gasped, the shock on her face lingering for a long time, replaced by an almost reverent awe.
He was the first red cloud in the world to attain enlightenment, and his lineage and fortune were among the most profound and exceptional in the primordial world.
But the fact that Pangu Jade Marrow, a treasure that only exists in the oldest legends, a supreme miracle of the primordial world, and enough to drive all innate gods and demons crazy, actually appeared in the world and was obtained by his friend, was far more shocking than anything he had ever seen or heard in the past.
He looked at Wanshou Yuanjun, then at Zhen Yuanzi's true form, his eyes filled with immense shock and heartfelt, indescribable congratulations. Such an opportunity was truly heaven-defying.
"This item is most compatible with the original body and is the key to laying the foundation for the supreme Dao."
Wanshou Yuanjun said no more, turning her gaze to Zhen Yuanzi's true form. In the exchange of glances, all the information was conveyed.
The dark yellow aura fluctuated violently, conveying an immense sense of anticipation and determination. The earth veins of the entire Longevity Mountain hummed in response, as if welcoming a sacred transformation.
With a solemn expression, Wanshou Yuanjun carefully aligned the bottle opening with Zhen Yuanzi's body and slowly removed the stopper sealed by the essence of Yi wood.
Instantly, an aura that was indescribable—vast, ancient, supreme, and noble—as if containing all the mysteries of the beginning of the world, erupted like a primordial beast that had been dormant for countless ages, spreading out with a thunderous roar!
The innate spiritual energy within the entire Wuzhuang Temple instantly boiled and surged!
He carefully tilted the bottle, releasing the three drops of cyan jade marrow that were as heavy as an ancient divine mountain, shimmering with endless Daoist charm and starlight, and whose interior seemed to contain a scene of primordial chaos unfolding.
Slowly and without spilling a drop, it was poured onto the very core of Zhen Yuanzi's true form—that ball of innate earth essence!
"Buzz—!"
The moment the chalcedony came into contact with the essence of the earth, it was not a simple fusion and absorption, but rather a violent reaction as if the creation of the world had occurred!
The dazzling, vibrant azure divine light and the profound, boundless, all-encompassing primordial yellow divine light erupted simultaneously, complementing each other.
The violent collision and perfect fusion illuminated the entire Wuzhuang Temple, and even the main peak of Wanshou Mountain, making it as clear as daytime!
Zhen Yuanzi's body emitted an unprecedentedly violent buzzing and trembling sound.
As if unable to withstand the impact of that immense, high-quality primal power immediately, ripples like towering waves spread across the surface of the halo, the light flickered and even showed signs of disintegration and splitting!
"Earth veins obey my command, myriad mountains protect, activate the formation!" Long-lived Yuanjun was prepared. A low shout containing the power of the Great Luo resounded throughout Long-lived Mountain, and her hands rapidly formed countless profound hand seals.
Rumble! The earth vein dragon energy of the entire Longevity Mountain Range was completely activated, and the innate earth formation that guarded the dojo was instantly stimulated to an unprecedented extreme!
Nine layers of thick earthen barriers rose into the sky from the ground, layer upon layer, transforming into an enormous, dark yellow chaotic light shield covering tens of thousands of miles in radius, like an inverted giant bowl, firmly enveloping and tightly covering the entire Wanshou Mountain Taoist temple!
Above the array's protective barrier, earth, fire, wind, and water swirled, and innate Dao patterns flowed, unleashing its full power.
It completely isolates all auras, light, sound, and even celestial calculations from both inside and outside! Even if a Primordial Golden Immortal were to personally visit this place, they would not be able to easily discern the slightest truth within the formation!
"Such a grand event, how could I, a humble Taoist, stand idly by! I have come to protect the Dharma!"
Seeing this, Hongyun's expression also became extremely solemn. Sensing the terrifying and precious power of the jade marrow, he immediately acted without hesitation.
Manifesting its true form as a vast expanse of crimson clouds, the magnificent and splendid crimson glow, though unable to completely cover the entire Longevity Mountain shrouded by the great array, still permeated the array's light shield, merging with the essence of the earth element to further enhance its protective effect and ward off evil and misfortune.
He was completely focused, his spiritual awareness spreading out to its maximum extent, alert to any possible unexpected interference.
Qingfeng and Mingyue knew that this matter concerned the master's very well-being and was of utmost importance. They stood guard by his side with great tension, helping to stabilize the great formation and guide the spiritual energy of the earth's veins.
At the heart of the formation, Zhen Yuanzi's true form was undergoing an unprecedented and transformative metamorphosis.
The energy transformed from Pangu Jade Marrow was so vast and boundless, like billions of roaring chaotic galaxies, domineering yet gentle with the power of creation, surging wildly into his innate earth essence.
His physical body was repeatedly torn apart, shattered, and reassembled by that terrifying power, only to be reshaped, condensed, and sublimated by the infinite vitality and creative power contained within the jade marrow...
This process is extremely painful, like experiencing the destruction and rebirth of the world time and time again, but it is also accompanied by the ultimate leap in the origin of life and the foundation of one's aptitude!
His innate earth essence was originally a top-tier innate divine foundation.
At this moment, however, it is ascending towards an incredible, near-perfect realm, a power and profundity that is close to the origin of the Great Dao.
Its potential and foundation are comparable to the innate foundation of those relatively weak chaotic demon gods born in chaos!
Cultivation knows no time, and the primordial world does not keep track of years.
I wonder how many years have passed within the formation, and what the outside world is like.
The earth-shattering phenomenon that had enveloped Longevity Hill finally began to subside and recede.
The innate earth formation continued to operate diligently, isolating the inside from the outside, but the soaring divine light and intense energy fluctuations at its core had gradually subsided, becoming harmonious and balanced.
In the end, all the light, whether it was the cyan jade marrow divine radiance or the primordial yellow earth essence, was completely gathered back into the primordial earth essence, as if returning to its original state.
At this moment, its color has become deeper and more ancient, presenting a chaotic, dark yellow hue.
Its volume appears to have shrunk by almost half, yet it feels more solid and heavy.
Its entire body exuded a boundless and profound Daoist aura, perfectly flawless, primordial, and immeasurably powerful. It hovered there silently, its emanating pressure already reaching—
The pinnacle of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!
It seems that we are only one step away from that ethereal and indestructible realm of the Primordial Dao!
Its profound origins far surpass those of ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortals, already carrying an ancient, powerful, and immortal aura like that of a chaotic demon god!
Meanwhile, during this long period of protecting the Dharma, Hongyun felt day and night the incomparably pure Pangu aura and the supreme Dao rhythm emanating from the core of the great array.
His own cultivation level also rose rapidly, and he benefited greatly. Finally, he broke through the shackles of the Taiyi Golden Immortal. The three flowers gathered on his head, the five qi converged in his chest, and his magnificent momentum soared into the sky, although it was blocked by the great formation.
However, his Dao fruit was already achieved, and he had even attained the Great Luo Dao fruit!
The crimson clouds became even more condensed and vast, with thousands of auspicious wisps and countless rays of light, displaying extraordinary and wondrous beauty.
As an avatar, Wanshou Yuanjun shares the same origin as the original body, and thus benefits greatly from cultivating in such an environment.
His cultivation steadily improved, his realm was completely consolidated, and he advanced to the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. His aura became increasingly profound and unfathomable.
Even the gentle breeze and bright moon, which had been diligently guarding the sidelines and assisting in stabilizing the formation and guiding the spiritual energy, were nourished day and night by this high-level energy and the rhythm of the Great Dao.
His cultivation also advanced by leaps and bounds, his immortal power surged, and his Dao body became pure, both reaching the peak of the Golden Immortal realm. He was just waiting for a suitable opportunity to try to break through to the Taiyi Dao Fruit.
Wanshou Yuanjun and Hongyun exchanged a smile, both able to see the joy, awe, and boundless anticipation for the future path in each other's eyes.
Zhen Yuanzi's body rippled slightly, conveying a calm, content, and powerful aura.
The absorption is complete, the foundation is solid, and the strength is unprecedented.
Next, one must calmly comprehend and consolidate one's realm, patiently awaiting the supreme opportunity for transformation. At that time, once the transformed form is revealed, it will be earth-shattering, shaking the entire primordial world!
