Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 266 At the End of the Road, Immortal Aura Appears

Flames engulfed the sky!

A large hole was burned into Lin Fan's chest, deep enough to expose the bone, and it was charred black. Only the immortal bone remained intact, shining brightly.

In this place, the divine fires evolved from the two great paths intertwine and merge with each other, achieving a subtle balance.

Black and white coexist, runes are densely distributed, starting from this point and gradually spreading to every part of his body, greatly increasing his power.

"it hurts!"

Lin Fan frowned. The Supreme Bone was being roasted by the raging fire, and the sensation was incredibly clear; even his primordial spirit was trembling.

However, once this process begins, it cannot be stopped until the body is completely enveloped in life and death, or all previous efforts will be in vain.

However, this is both hardship and opportunity. The two principles intertwine, leaving behind the patterns of the Great Dao, and divine sounds resound.

His mind became increasingly clear and empty, and he gained a moment of enlightenment, as if he could see the future and strengthen his beliefs.

Time passed, and Lin Fan remained motionless, sitting cross-legged, flames enveloping his body. He didn't know how many days had gone by.

At this moment, his body was withered and extremely weak, but his eyes shone with an astonishing light, like two golden lamps, dazzlingly bright.

Faintly, a wisp of celestial energy appeared around him, foreshadowing his success on this path.

"It's almost here. Let life and death be the fire to forge out your true self." Lin Fan's eyes burned brightly, yet he was also extremely cautious.

Because at this critical moment, unexpected things might happen, such as strange occurrences, and it's possible that they might come knocking again.

Fortunately, he brought enough precious medicine to restore him to his peak condition immediately, preventing his true body from being burned.

In fact, he has absorbed quite a few divine objects during this period, and he takes sacred medicines as casually as eating radishes and cabbages.

It is precisely because of this that he was able to survive in the endless flames, cultivating and nourishing himself, and persevere until now.

In the days that followed, as the proportions of the two Great Dao Divine Flames within Lin Fan's body tended to balance, his immortal energy became much denser and stronger.

"Is it going to succeed?" Yuechan asked in surprise, staring at the scene. The birth of the celestial energy was extremely enlightening.

Strangely enough, the eeriness and ominousness that Lin Fan had been guarding against did not come to pass, and everything was unusually peaceful.

But it's a good thing after all; he doesn't want his primordial spirit to be inexplicably pulled away again and sent into the dark land.

"Boom!"

Finally, a month later, the Great Dao burst into flames, burning the nine heavens and illuminating the sky. He had succeeded.

Within the body, in every inch of flesh, blood, bones, and internal organs, two kinds of flames alternately rippled, runes flickered, hazy and indistinct.

At the same moment, the microcosm was disturbed, the universe roared, and the radiance of the sun, moon, and stars fell like long rivers.

The scene was unprecedented in its scale, with dragons soaring and phoenixes dancing, a spectacle that astonished the world and was simply beyond imagination.

In addition, a strange aura spread, and a vast wave surged in all directions, causing a sense of unease and utter shock.

At that very moment, a celestial aura fully manifested around Lin Fan, coiling like a true dragon and encircling his body, making him appear extraordinary and peerless.

"I've finally cultivated a wisp of immortal energy!" He was overjoyed and extremely excited.

Then, Lin Fan stood up. Although his body was charred black, he exuded a sharp and powerful aura, like a god-king.

Soon, his body began to glow, drawing upon the boundless life essence from the void to repair his injuries and radiate brilliance.

The next moment, Lin Fan took the clothes that Yue Chan handed him and put them on. As for the original clothes, they had long since been burned to ashes.

"I... witnessed a miracle. An ancient freak groped for several lifetimes, pondering and yearning for that one step that he could never attain." Yuechan was happy for him and praised him, her bright eyes sparkling with extraordinary brilliance. Her junior brother was indeed the most amazing.

Throughout history, countless brilliant and talented individuals have failed to succeed and perished on this path, yet today we witness this magnificent spectacle.

Moreover, this person was his closest junior brother, so how could he not be excited?

"Young man, you're not bad. You've cultivated immortal energy without relying on external aids, which is rare even in the ancient times. You have the style of this king back then. You're teachable. Become my disciple and I will pass on the supreme technique to you!"

The puppy arrived too, head held high, looking down on the world with an air of superiority.

During this time, it did not leave the ancient land, partly to try to find out more information from Lin Fan, and partly to rebuild it.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan rolled his eyes, really wanting to stew it and eat it. This dog was really arrogant and shameless.

"Well, actually, it's fine if you don't become my apprentice. I have another good thing to discuss with you," the puppy continued.

Lin Fan ignored it and silently savored the wonders of immortal energy, discovering that his strength had increased significantly, reaching the peak of the Divine Fire Realm.

At the same time, it stimulates the immortal energy, permeating heaven and earth, giving one inexhaustible magical power and a continuous flow of vital energy, making one fearless in group battles.

Most importantly, immortal energy can nourish the physical body and warm the primordial spirit. When it condenses with the body, combat power will greatly increase.

This is why those who cultivate immortal energy can be invincible among their peers.

"How long did I spend in seclusion this time?" Lin Fan asked. Cultivation knows no time; once you are immersed in it, you don't feel the passage of time at all.

"Half a year!" Yuechan replied. Including the more than a year they had spent before, they had been here for almost two years.

"Fortunately, the time wasn't too long or too short," Lin Fan said calmly. Everything was normal and within his expectations.

Now, he is just over seventeen years old, almost eighteen. At such an age, his achievements are quite remarkable.

"Strive to become a Celestial God before the age of twenty, and a sect leader when the Immortal Ancient Realm opens." Lin Fan felt that he could go even faster.

Yuechan is dizzy with excitement. She thinks this is too slow and actually wants to achieve the status of a celestial god before the age of twenty. How can the other cultivators bear this?
However, her cultivation has been steadily increasing over the past six months. With the help of the Azure Moon Flame and the insights of her predecessors, it shouldn't be difficult for her to cultivate immortal energy.

Although it can't compare to Lin Fan's rapid progress, it's only a matter of time.

"What are your plans?" Yuechan asked.

"Let's cultivate the second strand of immortal energy first," Lin Fan pondered. There are three strands of immortal energy in total.

Yuechan was surprised. She had just taken a step, but then thought of taking another step. She really didn't know what to say.

"Do you know what to do next?" Yuechan was afraid that he was too eager for quick results and that something big would go wrong.

"Hmm... I have some ideas." Lin Fan nodded.

The sight of immortals at the end of the road signifies that only one path can be built; a second path requires finding a different way.

As for the third tribulation, it was clearer and more direct: he simply had to overcome the lightning tribulation, which wasn't too difficult for him.

"I think you should consolidate your foundation, rest, and think things through before taking any action," Yuechan advised, fearing that he might go astray and make drastic changes that would destabilize his Dao foundation.

“That’s right, this matter can’t be rushed. Many beings in the previous era were too confident and ultimately fell along the way.”

Beside them, the puppy chimed in, offering some rare examples.

Then, with a lewd smile, it grinned and said, "Kid, I have a great opportunity here. Want to join me?"
