Chapter 586 Primordial Divine Body, Three Great Innate Divine Skills
Before breaking through, the "Primordial Realm" was the third layer, the "Myriad Phenomena Realm", corresponding to the Myriad Phenomena Period in the theory of the four realms of the universe.

After the breakthrough, one immediately enters the 'Nirvana Realm', where a large amount of gray mist emerges from the boundary wall, representing the origin of the Great Dao of Destruction.

"Hiss~" The mist burned rapidly, and the boundary of the inner world, which was originally light blue, turned grayish-black and continued to expand.

Due to the continuous expansion, the Yin-Yang Twin Star System, the primordial ocean, and the boundless continent where the Tree Son resides are rapidly pulled away.

Zhao Xing immediately used his senses to restrain the mist, preventing it from expanding too much.

At the same time, some precious native species and Yuheng's troops were transferred to a safe area.

"Chichi~"

The next moment, gray mist quickly enveloped the boundless continent.

The entire landmass was destroyed and disintegrated.

However, soon, a land of even higher quality was born. Its exterior was a layer of hard black boundary stone, while its interior possessed astonishing vitality.

"Born from destruction, the new boundless continent can give birth to even more powerful native species, and its soil will also endow the troops with the source of destruction, thus giving birth to powerful innate secret techniques." Zhao Xing had some understanding.

Since the opening of the inner world, apart from accelerating growth, the changes to plant soldiers have not been significant.

However, upon reaching the god level, both native and non-native species will be granted new talents!

After Zhao Xing was born on the new boundless continent, he replanted some of the Emperor-level and Legendary troops that he had previously obtained.

For example, the Black Moon Tree and the Soul-Devouring Grass, as the first batch of plants to absorb them, immediately underwent a transformation.

After scanning, Zhao Xing saw the new names for the Black Heaven Divine Tree and the God-Eating Grass.

Originally, the Black Moon Tree was only Emperor-level and the Soul-Devouring Grass was only Legendary-level, but now they have both transformed.

"The internal world goes through four stages: primordial, origin, myriad phenomena, and extinction. This transformation of plant life is cosmic in scale."

“People often talk about gifted races and innate divine skills. Now I am their ‘sky’. To them, I am the ‘ruler of the universe’.”

"A single thought can transform them into gods, or turn them into a handful of dust."

However, both the Black Moon Tree and the Soul-Devouring Grass undergo slow transformations once they advance to the God-level, comparable to the level of a divine weapon.

This kind of 'granting' is not enough to make them reach the level of god-generals.

As for the troops left behind by the original God King Yuheng, General Tianji and General Moyi, they remained completely unchanged because they had already gone through this process.

To change this, Zhao Xing would either need to become stronger, or it would require a long period of accumulation.

"Whoosh~" The primordial ocean evaporated, turning into a cloud of mist.

According to the Yin-Yang binary star system, it is estimated that rain will begin to fall in the primordial ocean region approximately 10 years later.

They then coalesced into a new ocean, within which planets and continents were born, gradually dispersing as the inner world expanded.

Fifty years later, the inner world, which was originally mostly empty, now has eight star clusters!

"With the inner world reaching the god level, everything is advancing. In this state, it can even be called an inner universe."

"However, some places are barren wastelands, while others are teeming with life."

Among all the cultivation techniques in the Primordial Realm, the inner world cultivated in the Primordial Chaos Realm possesses the characteristics of all four stages.

This resulted in a scene where some places were prosperous while others were in decline.

"Expansion cannot be reckless." Zhao Xing's original inner world was 30,000 world units, but after it evolved to a range of 300,000 world units, he immediately stopped expanding.

In reality, Zhao Xing felt that it could still expand, but it's not necessarily good for the inner world to grow infinitely larger.

"After reaching the god level, one can also vaguely sense the lifespan of the inner world."

"If we don't get injured and the battle doesn't damage our foundation, we can probably sustain this for about 100,000 epochs."

"After 100,000 epochs, it will be destroyed, and the Great Cataclysm will occur."

"If we fight frequently and damage our foundation, such as by mass-producing many powerful military units, then we can seize the foundation of the world, and the time it takes will be greatly shortened."

"During this process, you will also suffer divine tribulations."

One hundred thousand eras may seem like a long time, exceeding a hundred billion years when converted to star years, but it is ultimately not eternal.

Fighting shortens one's lifespan.

Of course, there are also ways to prolong life, which is to strengthen the origin of the internal world and constantly attract new substances.

If this process is done well, it is theoretically possible to live as long as the universe.

"Ok?"

Zhao Xing thought the evolution of his inner world had come to an end, but at that moment, a new change occurred.

Beside the boundless continent, a patch of fiery red soil, about three feet in diameter, suddenly appeared.

It was so small that Zhao Xing thought it was some kind of dust that had separated from the boundless continent.

But it was expanding rapidly, growing a hundredfold in the blink of an eye, and it was constantly absorbing the surrounding matter, eventually forming a vortex.

"Crack~"

This place began to explode continuously, emitting intense light.

Upon closer inspection, Zhao Xing realized it resembled a nascent sun.

"What's going on? I can't even control its growth?"

Zhao Xing's consciousness immediately separated and traced the source. He immediately discovered that this was not a physical entity, but a projection from outside the boundary core.

Because the Great Sun Qi Sea has entered the third level—'Polar Star Illusion'.

Zhao Xing immediately diverted his consciousness to scan the Qi Sea within his body.

"Wow~"

Suddenly, 70% of the Qi in the sea evaporated, and it arched towards the center.

The sun, which originally existed only within the Qi Sea, is slowly rising.

The first layer of the Great Sun Qi Sea, the origin of aurora.
The second layer is the Holy Body of the Great Sun.

The third layer is the current Polaris phantom.

It was hot. Incredibly hot!

Zhao Xing felt his flesh and bones become scalding hot under the blazing sun.

"Puff~"

Zhao Xing lost control and collapsed onto the floor paved with Earth God Crystal.

His hair fell out instantly, and his body burst into flames.

The aurora swept through every cell of flesh and blood in the body, and even the divine artifact, the Ancestral Emperor's Scepter, inside was directly melted!

If Zhao Xing hadn't moved quickly, the Time-Space Valley Rain Robe would have been burned, and Yuan Tengxian, who was fused with the physical body, would not have survived.

"What an overbearing technique! Where did the Boundless True God get it from? It's so exclusive."

Zhao Xing lay on the ground, his consciousness somewhat blurred. He felt as if he were about to detach from his body, fly into the sky, and transform into the sun.

In fact, this is the process of reshaping the Dharma body into the divine body. However, Zhao Xing also cultivated other techniques, which meant that the first thing the Great Sun Qi Sea had to do was not to condense the divine body, but to clear away all obstacles within the divine body.

The divine power and body bestowed upon Zhao Xing by the ancestral emperor were fake and of low level, so of course they had to be eliminated.

The boundary core was also affected, but it withstood the melting. Not only did it withstood it, but because of Zhao Xing's instinctive consciousness, it emitted wisps of mist to resist the melting.

"Om~"

Just then, another unexpected event occurred, and the Extreme Land Technique completed the transition from the fourth to the fifth level.

After the divine essence of the Penglai God General was digested, a large amount of Earth God Crystals shattered and transformed into pure Earth Essence, which merged into Zhao Xing's body.

The fourth layer of the polar continent is Mustard Seed Mountain, where meridians, like ancient earth veins, lie dormant within Zhao Xing's body.

Upon breaking through to the fifth level, he exuded astonishing vitality. When the aurora shone upon him, the Mustard Seed Peak within the body's origin zone burst forth with incredible energy.

The Ksitigarbha Divine Mark was born and imprinted on every inch of Zhao Xing's meridians and flesh.

The fifth layer of the polar continent—the polar continent divine runes—is also the first layer where the divine body is reforged.

The path of the free god is to cultivate the source, and the divine body is the foundation. Only when the foundation is solid can spiritual energy be contained and transformed into divine power.

The two major techniques of timing and location are used to simultaneously seize the right to forge the divine body, because this is the foundation of the technique. If it is assimilated by another technique, it is as good as useless.

Zhao Xing's subconscious mind certainly didn't want to be crippled, otherwise why would he have gone through so much trouble to find the source?
Therefore, his consciousness applies the same way to the advancement of each technique.

Originally, the Boundary Core itself did not have much need for a divine body, but at this moment, it also joined the competition.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang~"

Zhao Xing's body would be pulled into the sky by an illusory sun, and then pulled down to the ground by a piece of golden earth.

A moment later, a patch of gloom emerged from within the flames, churning wildly.

Fortunately, this was the Heavenly Sea of ​​Devouring Heaven, so even though Zhao Xing triggered many strange phenomena.

For the Devouring Heaven Realm Sea, these are all child's play.

It's like a firecracker exploding in the ocean; it doesn't even make a ripple.

However, Zhao Xing still attracted attention.

First is the Nian beast.

It was originally standing on the outer edge of the Devouring Heaven Sea, resting on the ground, waiting for Zhao Xing's return.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked at the darkness with some confusion.

"What happened to the cook? Did he get into a fight?"

"Isn't the Devouring Heaven Sea devoid of life? What is he fighting against?"

The Nian Beast could sense that within the Devouring Heaven Sea region, a primordial force of destiny was colliding with something.

It naturally assumed that Zhao Xing was in trouble.

"Should I save the cook?" the Nian beast began to ask itself.

"The Devouring Heaven Sea is too dangerous. Forget it, I'll find another one."

The Nian beast turned around, took two steps, and then stopped.

"No, the cook is my subordinate."

"If I do that, how am I any different from that heartless and ruthless Gu Xiao?"

"Besides, he served me quite well."

After hesitating for a while, the Nian Beast walked into the Devouring Heaven Realm Sea with some fear.

……

Before the Nian Beast could find Zhao Xing, a vortex of consciousness drifted into the Devouring Heaven Realm Sea.

At the center of the vortex, a majestic and domineering figure stood. After he appeared, the Devouring Heaven Sea fell silent, as if he were the center of the Dao, the master of the Dao.

"How interesting, the first year beast has actually appeared."

"Gu Xiao had the Sui Beast and Nian Beast carry the Polar Star on their backs and hide in an independent spacetime territory. How did it escape?"

"And then came a Minister of Agriculture who practices three different schools of thought, but his cultivation is only a little over 30,000 years old."

"Hmm? There's actually another descendant of the Void Ancestor within the Dao Palace?"

Those at the center of the vortex have a clear view of everything.

On the outer perimeter was the Nian Beast, stumbling forward; within the Boundary Sea was Zhao Xing, whose cultivation had gone berserk; and within the Dao Palace was Du Yun, whose skeleton was burning with divine fire.

"No wonder I woke up; it turns out the Dao Court has already broken free from the seal." The figure in the vortex couldn't help but laugh.

"Di Luo, are you already dead...? Otherwise, how dare you let my Dao Palace appear in the world?"

"Di Luo is dead, hahaha~"

After laughing for a while, the person in the vortex lowered their head.

He was drawn to Zhao Xing again.

Zhao Xing's demonic possession triggered the nineteenth True Spirit Tribulation, an invisible spiritual tribulation.

"It is quite rare to reach such a high level at the demigod stage."

"Since you dare to enter my Dao Court, you must be an enemy of Di Luo. I will lend you a hand."

With a casual gesture, the man summoned a stream of black chaotic energy from within the Devouring Heaven Sea, enveloping Zhao Xing.

The nineteenth True Spirit Tribulation was easily dissolved, and Zhao Xing sat up and began to suppress the conflict between the three primal sources.

Not long after, the twentieth True Spirit Tribulation appeared.

The Soul Tribulation: His soul began to split again, due to a certain cultivation technique.

The man continued to summon chaotic energy, and the calamity disappeared once more.

Zhao Xing opened his eyes, which were completely blank, without pupils.

The 21st True Spirit Tribulation has begun.

"Hahaha." The man in the vortex burst into laughter.

He discovered that the little guy below seemed to have sensed the presence of some kind of assistance, and actually took the initiative to trigger the True Spirit Tribulation instead of breaking through.

"A true warrior indeed! Let me see where your limits lie."

With a laugh, the man waved his hand and ended the calamity.

……

As the Nian beast walked along, it began to regret its actions.

Because he felt an instinctive fear.

Just like those guys from Yuyin Mountain, they didn't dare to attack him because they couldn't disrespect Heaven.

The Devouring Heaven Realm Sea was created specifically to suppress the heavens!
This also includes the Nian beast.

"Cook, where are you? Why are you so far away?"

"You're really going to kill Lord Nian."

"Woo woo~" The Nian beast's fur stood on end, and the ball of light on its head quickly went out, forcing it to continue spitting out.

But as it walked, the Nian beast discovered that the ball of light it had spat out had disappeared, as if someone had taken it away.

"Ghost!"

The Nian beast could no longer contain itself, let out a roar, and left without looking back.

"what!"

Zhao Xing shouted and suddenly opened his eyes.

He felt like he had a very long and absurd dream.

When he merged the three origins to become a god, he triggered the True Spirit Tribulation, but the True Spirit Tribulation was suddenly swatted away by a figure.

The nineteenth time, the twentieth time, the twenty-first time... all the way up to the twenty-third time.

In the end, the person in the dream said one sentence.

Then I woke up.

"What did you say?"

Zhao Xing couldn't remember.

It doesn't sound like nice words; it sounds like he's criticizing himself.

Zhao Xing chuckled self-deprecatingly, looked around, and found himself still in the same spot, lying amidst the remnants of divine crystal.

After regaining his divine power for a moment, Zhao Xing suddenly opened his eyes, somewhat frightened.

His sudden devouring of the Heavenly Sea was somewhat terrifying.

Because he had just realized that it wasn't a dream after all, and that he had actually survived twenty-three True Spirit Tribulations!

Zhao Xing thought for a moment, then took out a square offering table from his inner world, presented the finest incense offerings, and knelt down in worship with his hands clasped in front of him.

He didn't speak, nor did he ask any unknown entity to appear. He simply offered sincere prayers, left the offerings, and departed.

shuh~
After Zhao Xing left, a vortex descended and swept away all the offerings.

……

After the breakthrough, Zhao Xing discovered that he could find his way in the Devouring Heaven Sea without relying on the light orbs spewed out by the Nian Beast.

After leaving the Devouring Heaven Sea, they discovered that the Nian Beast was no longer in its original location.

Zhao Xing glanced back and then quickly left.

He opened the panel and reviewed the changes in himself.

Name: Zhao Xing

[Occupation: Shennong, Divine Physician]

[Realm Level: Mid-stage Divine General (Free God)]

[Divine Body: Mixed Source Divine Body]

[Soul: Late Stage Divine General]

[Innate Divine Skill: The Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart]

[Innate Divine Skill: Heaven-Piercing Divine Eye]

[Innate Divine Skill: Extreme Pulse Control]

[Innate Divine Skill: Devouring Heaven Realm]

[Qi Luck: Rank 33]

[Fate: Unpredictable]

"Hmm? Even the art of medicine has become a god of freedom?"

Zhao Xing was somewhat surprised because he had created the same seven-aperture exquisite heart as Fan Qianrou.

However, Zhao Xing was more concerned about the situation after all three sources broke through simultaneously.

"Four innate divine skills were born."

Only special divine bodies, like those powerful races in the universe, can give birth to innate divine skills.

Ordinary divine bodies do not have the added benefits of innate divine skills.

The Primordial Divine Body brings three innate divine skills, corresponding to the three origins: Heavenly Eye, Extreme Pulse Control, and Devouring Heaven Realm.

"Du Yun's Great General Eyes can see very far, but my All-Seeing Divine Eyes should be able to see even further and be more adaptable."

The Primordial Divine Body alone is 90,000 times stronger than a standard divine body. The divine power born after its fusion is also called Primordial Divine Power. Zhao Xing could see Du Yun cultivating inside the Dao Palace from outside the Devouring Heaven Realm Sea, and he could also see the Nian Beast sighing and rushing back to the Dao Palace.

Du Yun and the Nian Beast remained completely unaware of being spied on.

“My control over the extreme pulse is even stronger now.” Zhao Xing looked down at the flat and smooth ground.

Except for certain areas, almost the entire Nine Netherworld Palace is a 'dead vein'.

The dead vein cannot be utilized, cannot grow anything, and cannot hide.

Zhao Xing had seen the death pulse during the test conducted by the Penglai God General.

But now, with a thought, Zhao Xing sank into the ground.

His escape techniques can be used even in extreme death zones.

"Whoosh~"

Zhao Xing was enveloped by the earth, manipulating it to create a potential difference, as if he were drifting in a river.

It drifted far away in an instant, and even caught up with the Nian beast very quickly.

However, the Nian beast still did not notice Zhao Xing's presence.

He was still sighing.

"Cook, it's not that I don't want to save you, but that place is too dangerous, and even I, as an adult, am powerless to help."

"I hadn't been inside long when I felt a great sense of terror."

"That feeling was terrifying."

"However, you are a good cook, and you served me very comfortably."

"I will build you a cenotaph."

"This is the Dao Palace of the Nine Nether Dao Lord. Burying you here is quite a fitting end..."

The Nian beast wants to come and save him?

Zhao Xing was taken aback.

He sensed that the Nian beast was no longer as threatening to him.

Perhaps it's worth a try.

However, the Nian beast's words made Zhao Xing stop what he was doing.

Regardless of the circumstances, he broke through because of the Nian Beast, and the beast even wanted to save him; there were both good and bad causes involved.

"Sigh, this trip has made me so hungry."

"Why don't we just eat Du Yun and that singer?"

The Nian beast muttered to itself, and soon its cravings returned.

Zhao Xing ultimately did not make a move, but instead followed behind.

Wait for the Nian Beast to return to the Nine Netherworld Palace.

Du Yun's expression immediately changed.

He discovered that only the Nian beast had returned, while Zhao Xing was nowhere to be seen.

"Where is Zhao Xing in the evening?"

Du Yun immediately snapped out of his reverie and flew to the plaza.

"Huh? You can actually fly... How dare you!"

The Nian beast realized something was wrong, because Du Yun dared to call him by his given name instead of a respectful title.

"I'm asking you a question, where is Zhao Xing?!" Du Yun's anger surged, and Lü Ming stood next to him.

Without Zhao Xing, it would be difficult for the two of them to recover in the Nine Netherworld Palace, and the Nian Beast would not let him return to Yuyin Divine Mountain or leave.

"What can you do about it if I eat him?!"

"You beast!!" Du Yun's eyes widened in fury, black flames erupting from his fist as he slammed it down. "Spit it out!"

Lu Ming also tapped his hands lightly. He had no musical instrument, but he was trying to play the life string of the Nian beast.

"They've rebelled! They've all rebelled!" the Nian beast roared, opening its mouth and spitting out a ball of light.

The dark Nine Netherworld Palace suddenly became bright.

The Nian beast's lifeline was unshakeable; its fur bristled, and bolts of lightning shot out from its hair.

Lu Ming was immediately strangled by the purple lightning and fell straight down like a puppet.

The light peeled away Du Yun's skin, revealing flesh and blood, and exposing his divine bones.

However, his right hand and thigh remained unpeeled, still in their fleshy state, and his fist, crackling with destructive black flames, slammed into the Nian beast's head.

"boom!"

The Nian beast hopped half a step, then its single horn pierced through Du Yun's ribs, lifting him up.

"Chi~"

Du Yun's arrogance was extinguished by the light.

The Nian beast lowered its head again, threw Du Yun to the ground, and stomped on him.

"What a formidable Nian beast! It is indeed a creature that has been officially recognized. Its combat techniques are simple yet profound. Du Yun was defeated in a single exchange."

Du Yun continued to struggle, but the Nian beast angrily raised its hooves, seemingly intending to teach Du Yun a painful lesson.

Zhao Xing stopped hiding and flew in from outside.

"Wait a minute!"

swoosh~
Zhao Xing appeared in front of Du Yun in a flash.

The Nian beast was now much larger than Du Yun and Zhao Xing.

But Zhao Xing's speed was as fast as lightning.

It created an arc-shaped realm of light.

"boom!"

The Nian beast felt a bit of pain from the impact of its hooves, and its hind legs involuntarily took several steps backward.

Zhao Xing also took a step back. He felt the skin on his arm crack and blood seeping out.

I am not a martial artist after all; I have just broken through and am not yet fully adapted to the new realm.

"Zhao Xing? You...you're not dead?" Du Yun was overjoyed.

"The cook?" The Nian beast was somewhat shocked. "You, how could you..."

The cook not only survived, but his fighting ability actually increased significantly.

And the force that just withstood me, how come it's so similar to my own?
Lu Ming lay on the ground, breathing with difficulty, like a fish that had just come ashore.

He didn't know what was happening, and his divine sense couldn't leave his body, so he frantically pupaed, trying to raise his head and see with his naked eyes.

But he witnessed a scene that he would never forget:
Zhao Xing actually withstood the trampling of the Nian beast with his bare body and even pushed the beast back several steps, while he himself only suffered minor cuts.
"Cook, you're still alive." The Nian beast was initially pleased, but its eyes quickly turned ashen.

“Yes, I’m still alive.” Zhao Xing stepped forward.

“You’re different now.” The Nian beast also stepped forward.

"Lord Nian, we should have a serious talk."

"Cook, you've lied to me!" the Nian beast roared. "You've become the God of Agriculture!"

Zhao Xing was originally an earth god, so why did he suddenly become a heaven god?

"You've been lying to me all along, using my very essence to break through!"

The Nian beast was enraged.

"Lord Nian Beast, please calm down." Zhao Xing did not want to confront the Nian Beast head-on. Firstly, he had some karma stemming from the Nian Beast, which included both good and bad aspects, and he could not condemn it outright.

Secondly, he was not yet familiar with the new realm and did not know if he could defeat the Nian beast.

Moreover, after his breakthrough, Zhao Xing vaguely sensed that there were many terrifying beings in the Nine Netherworld Palace who might be watching this place.

"Unforgivable!" The Nian beast's eyes blazed with fury, seemingly enraged by the deception.

Zhao Xing didn't know where the Nian beast got such a big temper. After that attack, the Nian beast should know that it was no longer the same as before.

"What I hate most is being lied to!" A layer of black armor suddenly appeared on the Nian beast's body, and its horn instantly extended, seemingly with a golden spear tip.

Two long, metallic-colored tubes extended from either side of the black armor, resembling cannons in their dark blackness; there were a total of eight tubes on both sides.

Zhao Xing's heart sank; this was probably the true strength of the Nian Beast.

The divine object on his body is the power artifact of the Luo Emperor!

But now the Nian beast can't be persuaded and is completely unable to calm down.

"Fine, then we'll have to fight." Zhao Xing's eyes gradually turned cold as he kicked Du Yun away.

Du Yun collided with Lü Ming, and the two skeletons tumbled and rolled away from the square like bumper balls upon impact.

Zhao Xing pushed off with one foot, lightly floating into the air, and charged towards the Nian beast.

"If you can't calm down, then fight!"

"My three origins have merged, and my divine body is now in its initial stages. I'll use you to hone my skills!"
