Immortality starts from the liver proficiency

Chapter 669 The Dao-Swallowing Fruit is the Shortcut

Every word was precious, instantly dispelling many of the confusions in his mind and bringing him sudden enlightenment.

This deposit is extremely valuable.

This is enough to show that the True Lord of Insight is serious.

Xu Yunfan glanced at Dongming Zhenjun with some surprise.

Dongming Zhenjun naturally understood what Xu Yunfan meant, and a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"What, do you think there's a fake one mixed in with this jade slip?"

Xu Yunfan chuckled twice, but did not respond to the question. He simply said...

"Your Excellency's sincerity is truly admirable."

Xu Yunfan put away the jade slip, having already made up his mind, understanding that True Monarch Dongming truly wanted to befriend him.

However, we need to carefully consider what kind of person the other party is.

God knows who the other person is.

Without delay, he focused his divine sense at his fingertips and began to transmit key information about the Attila Realm, including its approximate location, world characteristics, the authority and features of the three main gods, and traces of Qingyuan Zhenjun's activities in this realm and his attempt to refine the origin.

All of these details are inscribed on the other side of the jade slip.

He really enjoys watching the other dogs fight.

"Although the gods of this realm have not attained their positions righteously and possess only power without understanding the true essence of the Great Dao, their origins in the Heavenly Dao are extremely special. In particular, the divine crystals condensed from incense offerings and vows are quite effective in consolidating the grotto-heaven, refining magical power, and even comprehending certain specific Dao techniques. If a True Lord intends to go there, he should be very careful, especially since the three main gods working together are no less powerful than a Golden Core True Lord."

Xu Yunfan handed the jade slip back and added.

Dongming Zhenjun took the jade slip, scanned it with his divine sense, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "Very good, Shenxiao Zhenjun is indeed a trustworthy person!"

She carefully put away the jade slip and looked at Xu Yunfan.

"Then, I will give you another piece of advice: the path of the Golden Elixir lies in nurturing and transforming. The Golden Elixir is not the end point, but the seed."

The nurture is made by nourishing and refining the essence of heaven and earth and the laws of the Great Dao day and night, making it stronger and more refined, like the eternal stars.

The Transformer uses the Golden Elixir as the pivot and the Grotto-Heaven as the furnace to evolve their own Great Dao. They thoroughly integrate the Divine Thunder that they have comprehended, which destroys all laws, and the Undying Profound Firmament that carries the supreme image of all heavens, into the laws of the Grotto-Heaven, making it transform from the illusory into the real, from the rudimentary form into a true microcosm.

When the grotto-heaven is stable and high above, its laws arise spontaneously, and it can continuously draw upon the power of the void and chaos to nourish the Golden Core and sustain itself, only then can one truly say they have established a firm foothold in the Golden Core realm. As for the path to higher levels, it's still long. We can make a deal when you reach that stage.”

Her words highlighted the core path from the early to the middle stages of the Golden Core realm, which is exactly what Xu Yunfan urgently needs.

Although key details still require further intelligence exchange, this direction and framework are invaluable, pointing Xu Yunfan in the right direction.

Xu Yunfan bowed deeply: "Thank you for your guidance, True Lord! The coordinates of Attila have been given. I await your further instructions. If needed, I am willing to offer my humble assistance within my capabilities."

This is to be expected and demonstrates a cooperative attitude.

Whether or not they are driven is another matter entirely.

Dongming Zhenjun chuckled: "Very well, Shenxiao Zhenjun, please go back and consolidate your realm first. I am very interested in the Atila Realm. Perhaps we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in that foreign land soon."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yunfan understood that Dongming Zhenjun urgently needed to verify the authenticity of Attila.

He understood immediately, cupped his hands in farewell, and took his leave.

As for whether or not to let Pudu Zhenjun know, that will have to wait until they've taken what Attila can take first.

Now that Xu Yunfan has mastered the Divine Firmament True Scripture and attained the Dao Fruit, he naturally needs to acquire many mid-level and high-level gods to complete the Zhou Tian Star Array's Venerable Positions within the Zhou Tian Star Spirit Banner. Although there are currently three Golden Core Banner Spirits present, failing to complete the array's Star Lord positions will create a deficiency in refining it into a Natal Spirit Treasure in the future.

Leaving the eerie dojo shrouded in the imagery of the Nine Netherworld Profound Insight of Xuan Sha Mountain, and basking in the sunlight once more, he was not completely at ease.

The deal with Dongming Zhenjun was a mutually beneficial one, but this woman was cunning and shrewd, far superior to Qingyuan.

If True Lord Dongming really made a move, True Lord Qingyuan definitely wouldn't have lived this long.

Xu Yunfan felt a chill in his heart; this woman was probably using Qingyuan Zhenjun to lure people in.

Whether her involvement in the waters of Attila's realm will bring fortune or misfortune remains to be seen.

However, at least we now have a clear direction on how to take the first step after achieving the Golden Core: Nourishing the Elixir and Transforming into Heaven!
Nourish the Golden Elixir, and transform yourself into the Great Dao of Heaven.

He transformed into a purple-gold lightning bolt and returned to Shenxiao Peak.

Next, he focused on digesting the deposit given by the True Lord of Insight, combining it with his own Divine Firmament Dao Fruit to stabilize his Golden Core realm, and began to cultivate the core and begin the initial stage of Heaven Transformation.

As for Attila, Xu Yunfan currently has no plans to go there.

After the Golden Elixir is formed, all sorts of mysteries arise.

Name: Xu Yunfan

Cultivation Level: 1087 (Golden Core)
Skills: Divine Firmament Nine Heavens Profound Vault Undying True Scripture (Completed), Profound Capital Eight Scenes Refining Heaven Creation Cloud Book (Completed), Array Dao (Great Completion)...

Xu Yunfan summoned his attribute panel and examined it carefully. Under the divine thought of the Golden Core True Monarch, all the principles and techniques he had cultivated had been perfected. Even if they hadn't been perfected before, they had been rapidly elevated to the perfected state in just a few days thanks to the vast divine sense of the Golden Core realm and his deep understanding of the laws of the Great Dao.

The spiritual power of a Golden Core True Monarch is worlds apart from that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, like comparing an old computer from the 1980s to a supercomputer—the difference is unimaginable.

Thoughts flow like lightning, and mental calculations can exhaustively explore the subtle details of the laws of heaven and earth. No wonder it is said that those below the Golden Core stage are all ants, and only those who reach the Golden Core stage are qualified to sit at the table and eat.

Only cultivators at the Golden Core stage, after fusing with the Dao Fruit, can truly touch the core of this world's power.

However, the path to immortality has only just begun.

The early stage of the Golden Core is merely a new starting point on the path of cultivation.

If one wishes to achieve immortality, one must elevate one's own Dao Fruit Cave Heaven, ensuring its stability and high elevation, so that it will never fall or perish.

At that time, even if one's physical lifespan is nearing its end, one can still rely on the close connection with the grotto-heaven to allow one's true spirit to enter the cycle of reincarnation and continue to possess innate wisdom.

Then, using one's own celestial abode as a foundation, one can absorb and accumulate knowledge, and in the blink of an eye, one can find the foundation of one's previous life, restore one's strength, and achieve an alternative form of immortality.

Xu Yunfan frowned slightly as he pondered this.

So, how does one advance to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm?
The direction given by the True Lord of Insight is to cultivate the elixir and transform it into heaven.

The cultivator uses the origin of heaven and earth and the laws of the Great Dao to nurture and refine the golden elixir day and night, making it stronger and more solid, as eternal and immortal as the ancient stars.

The most direct and superior manifestation of the origin of heaven and earth and the laws of the Great Dao in this Taihua Spirit Ruins Realm is the 108 Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Dao Fruits that constitute the foundation of the Heavenly Dao of this realm.

That is, to devour other Dao Fruits and use multiple Dao Fruits to support oneself.

Xu Yunfan internally observes his dantian.

The golden core formed by the fusion of the Divine Firmament Dao Fruit and its own cave heaven was slowly rotating, with ninety-nine purple-gold divine dragons coiling around it. The dragon roars were accompanied by thunderous roars, containing the rudimentary form of an endless thunder world, swallowing and exhaling the immense power to destroy all laws and carry the imagery of heaven and earth.
