Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 568 Only today did you know that I am me

"A century of war, a century of enlightenment, the Three Flowers gather at the top, the Five Elements converge at the origin, it is time..."

Lin Fan, who was over two hundred years old, had his internal organs glowing, and three streams of immortal energy rose from the top of his head, transforming into a flower of the Great Dao, thus achieving complete perfection.

Furthermore, the beings sitting cross-legged on each of the Daoist flowers were no longer blurry, but completely clear, and in an instant, they all opened their eyes.

"Hedao!"

Lin Fan let out a long roar, and the three Dao flowers merged together, as did the little man, melting into one and disappearing into his true body.

Thus, the five realms of Qi Refining—Qi Sea, Five Elements Gathering, Divine Transformation, Divine Image, and Dao Integration—are completed, leading to perfection!

Having reached this point, Lin Fan naturally stood at the pinnacle of humanity, reaching his strongest state, his entire body crystal clear.

"boom!"

He took another half step, and a divine light burst forth, with countless auspicious rays illuminating the outer starry sky; he was practically becoming a true immortal.

"The pinnacle of the ultimate path!"

Lin Fan's eyes were deep. He had finally reached this point, which could be called a half-step True Immortal or an Ultimate Supreme Being.

In comparison, those in Shrouding the Heavens include the flawless Great Emperor and the Ancient Emperor who have merged with the Heavenly Heart Mark.

This is also the Supreme Realm, but it is the highest level that 99% of experts cannot reach, as if there is an extra half realm.

Of course, Lin Fan doesn't have the Heavenly Heart Mark, but does he need it? He uses his own body as a seed, relying on nothing external; his heart is the Heavenly Heart!

Among all those in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, only Meng Tianzheng can currently rival him in reaching this level, and Wang Changsheng also possesses a similar aura.

However, the latter is a special case; it has already been possessed and cannot be considered a living being in this world.

"Boom!"

Just then, thunder roared, the heavens and earth exploded, and all the forces pressed down—it was divine punishment, and also the tribulation of creation.

Lin Fan suddenly looked up, his eyes shining like divine lamps, gazing at the sky. He leaped up, tearing through the void, and rushed into the universe.

His tribulations were extraordinary, even terrifying. By forging his own path and creating unprecedented methods, he was destined to trigger an unprecedented lightning tribulation.

Especially in this degenerate age, the will of Heaven is like a knife, suppressing all paths and backfiring on all spirits, making it even more terrifying!
"Crack!"

Therefore, right from the start, all sorts of lightning intertwined in the world, striking him with unprecedented force.

This represents destruction!

Generally speaking, cultivators who are subjected to the Great Calamity of Annihilation by Heaven are those who are too defiant of Heaven and violate taboos.

For this reason, almost every creature targeted by them is doomed to die and cannot survive.

However, someone who has amazed both the past and present, broken conventions, and created their own system is naturally different from others.

"Roar……"

Lin Fan roared and went berserk, fighting fiercely and relentlessly in the desolate starry sky, yet he remained standing.

This is a catastrophe unimaginable to outsiders. Even an ordinary supreme being would not be able to withstand it and would be splattered with blood.

Because this has exceeded the heavenly punishment that should be given to people of the same realm, and is almost comparable to the tribulation for becoming an immortal recorded in ancient books. It is terrifying!
In this realm, no one can get close; even divine sense cannot detect them, or they will be instantly annihilated by heavenly lightning.

Even great cultivators could only watch suspiciously from a great distance.

"Blood splattered across the Milky Way, bones scattered everywhere... This is far too gruesome. What on earth is that person going through?"

Some people, sensing something, opened their heavenly eyes and peered into the vibrating depths of the universe, seeing a glimpse of it, and were utterly dumbfounded.

Most astonishingly, the duration of the calamity exceeded people's expectations.

It wasn't a few hours, a day or two, or even three or four months, but lasted for several years, defying all reason! Many cultivators were stunned, unable to comprehend what was happening. Was divine punishment about to completely destroy a person?
They're not giving anyone a way to survive!
At this moment, Lin Fan's primordial spirit was enveloped by lightning, splitting from his physical body, struggling in the thunder, gritting his teeth and persevering.

But it was so terrible, the bone marrow dried up, the flesh burned... It was not only painful, but also almost a matter of life and death.

Furthermore, all the major stars in this star field exploded, the galaxy collapsed, and they turned into dust, leaving not a single one behind, a scene that sent chills down one's spine.

"Besides the legendary tribulation of becoming an immortal, what other great tribulation would be like this?" Someone gasped.

The creation of this technique was too heaven-defying, triggering the strongest backlash in history. The suppression of all paths and the bombardment of the Great Universe continuously weighed on Lin Fan.

It took nine years of annihilation before the heavenly tribulation weakened slightly, but this situation lasted for another year before things returned to calm.

"boom!"

On this day, all the lightning completely disappeared, and a loud bang came from the depths of the starry sky, illuminating the entire universe with its radiant light.

From afar, it looked as if an immortal phoenix had been resurrected from the ashes, terrifying to the extreme!

People were horrified. A vast pressure spread throughout the universe, making people tremble and involuntarily shudder.

At this very moment, the entire universe trembled, as if the sky had collapsed, and all things cried out in anguish.

The source of all this was Lin Fan, who, after his body was repaired, sat cross-legged under the starry sky, motionless.

At the same time, he was talking to himself, as if speaking to another version of himself.

"So that's how it is. I was just an avatar..."

"You can't think like that. I am you, I am you, we are one person, so how can there be a split or a primary and secondary?"

“That’s right. From now on, I will be the real me, be myself again. Lin Fan is the Holy Emperor, and the Holy Emperor is also Lin Fan.”

At this moment, Lin Fan understood the cause and effect, the Samsara Seal within his body shone, and the Dao Fruit broke free and merged with this life.

"boom!"

In the blink of an eye, the four poles of the universe trembled, and all directions roared and thundered, reaching every corner of the world.

"Only today do I realize who I truly am!"

Lin Fan stood up, regaining his true self. His eyes were even more profound than before, as if they could contain a universe.

At the same time, his expression changed, showing a sense of vicissitude, as if he had lived for a long time, full of solemnity and dignified presence.

If he was a young man before, he is now a middle-aged man; this refers to a change in his mindset.

Of course, he also underwent a transformation in various aspects, especially in his strength, which took another step forward the moment he merged the four lifetimes of Dao Fruit.

When one's blood and energy reach their peak, new doors continuously open within the body, radiating immortal light, truly standing at the highest point of humanity, insurmountable.

"This time, I will definitely transcend the mortal world and ascend to the highest realm!" Lin Fan roared to the sky.

Having accumulated power over four lifetimes, his cultivation had reached an unbelievable level, unparalleled in the realm of humanity, standing on another level altogether.

Even if a true immortal were right in front of him, he would dare to kill them if war broke out!
In particular, the path of this life connects with that of the previous three lives, making up for deficiencies, and the cultivation of the Tao has reached new heights and is still progressing.

This is beyond imagination!
If it weren't for these damned limitations of heaven and earth, Lin Fan would have already become an immortal. Even a supreme being wouldn't be enough to explain his realm!
If you had to use one word to describe his current combat power—an unconventional path to immortality!
"younger sister……"

Lin Fan spoke softly, his face suddenly filled with sadness, as if he were recalling, tracing back, touching the most vulnerable part of his heart.

"Wait for me. One day, we will meet again."

Afterwards, he withdrew all his oppressive aura, becoming extremely peaceful and returning to his original state; otherwise, all the domains would be affected and in danger of being destroyed.

However, he did not leave the starry sky, but instead sat on a planet and cultivated diligently until his Dao fruit was completely perfected and he achieved unity with it.
