Chapter 506 Divine Refining Golden Pearl, Aperture Refining Sacred Domain

Ten days or so passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Wushou focused his mind into his divine aperture, first quietly erasing all the Dharma Realms and Realm Treasures.

Two or three days later, the old beggar finally completed the first batch of items to be suppressed.

Aside from the fleshy Sacred Heart, the Myriad Fire Mirror, and the Xuanhuang Platform that Chen Gou'er had swallowed at the beginning, the Crystal Sacred Heart and the Divine Golden Pearl were also thrown out by the old beggar somewhat unwillingly.

Currently, only the Sparrow Venerable, the Vermilion Glazed Glass Venerable, and the Porcelain Venerable remain under suppression.

It looks like it will take quite a while.

Li Wushou did not intervene in these matters; he merely mobilized his own spirit tablet to assist the old beggar in suppressing the evil spirits and to maintain the continuous incense offerings at the Three Immortals Hall.

The others then focused their attention on refining the Divine Golden Pearl and the Crystal Sacred Domain Heart.

Within the divine golden pearl, a galaxy is being nurtured, containing no fewer than a thousand stars.

Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be divine destiny stars.

It's not hard to imagine that these celestial stars were once among the many gods, or even true gods, in the divine world.

However, perhaps because of the death of the Divine Venerable, these stars have also fallen into desolation.

However, the incense offerings and the profound influence of the many auspicious stars within it still remain.

Although they are not as powerful as these deities, they have the advantage of being numerous, and together they are equally astonishing.

A rough estimate suggests that the quantity of incense burned during the annual festival in the entire Fubo region may be less than a quarter of the total, but the quality is extremely high and the incense is exceptionally pure.

Clearly, these incense sticks did not originate from the mortal realm!

Li Wushou was overjoyed.

For his divine aperture to undergo a transformation, simply swallowing the Dharma Realm and the Heart of the Holy Domain is not enough; he must have a sufficiently strong mind to control it, otherwise the divine aperture will easily collapse.

With this divine incense bead, Li Wushou's progress in consuming the Crystal Sacred Heart will undoubtedly increase significantly.

However, these offerings are probably insufficient to support Li Wushou in swallowing up the subsequent Sparrow Lord Sacred Domain.

Li Wushou took out several high-quality destiny stars, crushed the dregs, and sent them to the Baizhi Taoist Temple.

After giving the Paper Goddess a few instructions, Li Wushou sent her and the Tree Goddess out of the divine aperture.

After avoiding Chen Gou'er's gaze to prevent Chen Gou'er from discovering his secret deal with the old beggar, Li Wushou's primordial spirit swallowed the Divine Golden Pearl, while his divine aperture continuously fused with the Crystal Sacred Domain Heart.

Within this sacred heart, the Daoist aura of the void permeates.

Clearly, it was created by a venerable being skilled in the power of the void. The mountains and regions within it resembled crystals of the void, refracting different voids, as if all the passages to the myriad worlds converged here.

Back then, all the powerful Nascent Soul cultivators within the Holy Domain should have been connected to this Holy Domain through the Dharma Realm.

On one hand, one can use the sacred domain to comprehend the Dao of the Void.

On the other hand, the Holy Realm can also keep track of the movements and lives of these Nascent Soul cultivators at any time.

At this moment, all realms are in utter silence, the Venerable One and the Nascent Soul have died together, and the Dharma Realm and void that connect these mountains and rivers have also been sealed off.

Looking down, the Path to the Myriad Realms had become a decaying labyrinth.

The Immortal Mountain can even hunt down such a Venerable One who has attained enlightenment through the void?
It's unclear whether the hook was planted before enlightenment or simply a result of hunting.

If it's the latter, that's truly terrifying!

After observing for a moment, seeing his primordial spirit continuously condensing, Li Wushou also began to draw power from the heart of the crystal holy domain.

Before long, a new Daoist aura rose from the Daoist spirit body.

His divine aperture expanded rapidly at a speed that even Li Wushou himself found astonishing.

For seven or eight consecutive days, the scale of his spiritual aperture underwent a tremendous change.

In terms of scale alone, if a Dharma Realm at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm is considered "one", then a Dharma Realm at the late-stage of the Nascent Soul realm is "three".

For example, Jin Peng and Dao Yan's mastery of the Daoist realm is "from four to six".

The scope of divine palaces or Dharma realms where Xuan Ya and others have found their own path to enlightenment is roughly "seven to nine".

The Huangshigong Xuanhuang Dharma Realm, which he had previously reshaped with his own Daoist essence, falls within this category.

Theoretically, nine to twelve is the limit of the Nascent Soul realm. Beyond that, one transforms into the Sacred Realm of a Venerable.

This is something completely different from the Dharma Realm, with a vast difference.

If we were to make a comparison without considering the power of Daoist energy, then the Venerable's Sacred Domain should be at least fifty in terms of scale alone.

According to the old beggar, the sacred domain of the Sparrow Lord, having inherited from its predecessor and devoured the Central Domain, reached an astonishing level of around ninety.

However, before the Sparrow Lord's true spirit could be fully imprinted after removing the Vermilion Glazed True Spirit, the Porcelain Lord's true spirit was nailed to death.

Otherwise, even with a calculated strategy, it would be extremely difficult for the old beggar to suppress the Sparrow Lord and this Sacred Domain. As Li Wushou absorbed the Heart of the Sacred Domain during this period, his divine aperture neither formed its own realm, evolving into a Dharma Realm, nor underwent its ultimate transformation into a Sacred Domain.

But the scale reached around "twenty"!
This is far beyond the limit of the Nascent Soul realm, but it is still far from the Venerable realm.

And at the boundary of the divine aperture.

The original gray aura had somehow transformed into the power of the void.

This is not entirely Li Wushou's own power, but rather the power derived from his mastery of the Dao of Void.

The power of the void outside the real world also connects with Li Wushou's divine aperture from the void, interacting with Li Wushou's divine aperture here.

Therefore, although Li Wushou's divine aperture did not form its own world, it began to come into contact with the power of the void with the help of the Daoist rhyme of the void.

It was precisely the sudden appearance of these void forces that helped Li Wushou's divine aperture break through the "twelve" limit and continue to expand rapidly, reaching the astonishing "twenty" it is today.

This unexpected joy made Li Wushou extremely happy.

Moreover, this Sacred Heart has not yet been fully refined; a small portion remains. According to Li Wushou's estimation, it should be able to advance Li Wushou's Divine Aperture to around "25".

But his religious offerings and gold coins are gone!

This indicates that Li Wushou must slow down the rate of absorption and use more of his mind to control the evolution of the divine aperture.

Gazing at the sky above the low mountain, Li Wushou's primordial spirit was in the void, his body bursting with golden light.

The appearance of the primordial spirit became more composed, appearing to be two or three years more mature than Li Wushou's physical body, and adding a touch of majesty.

During this time, Li Wushou's invisible golden core and physical body were also constantly devouring the flesh and blood of the flesh tumor sacred domain, as well as the three domain flesh and blood alien species collected by the talisman master.

However, in terms of progress, it still hasn't caught up with the primordial spirit.

After his Golden Core Dragon Seed was 70% complete and reached its peak, each time he devoured flesh and blood, the progress of the Golden Core Dragon Seed's completeness was extremely slow.

It seems that Li Wushou has eaten almost all the exotic species that could be collected.

But it still did not meet Li Wushou's expectations.

Fortunately, the flesh and blood of the Sacred Tumor still gave him a full 50% boost.

If it were at the beginning, Li Wushou would not have thought much of it, but every little bit after it reached its peak was enough to make Li Wushou happy.

Half a percent is still quite an exaggeration!
Even Li Wushou suspected that if he had swallowed this flesh and blood at the beginning, it might have directly advanced his Golden Core Dragon Seed to near the Great Completion stage.

This forced Li Wushou to change his approach.

The higher one's spiritual cultivation, the more perfect the transformation of one's physical body becomes, and the essence of the physical body is also influenced and transformed by one's own Tao and Dharma.

Relying solely on flesh and blood mutants is too slow; we must also not overlook the flesh and blood of high-level cultivators!
Moreover, such a high-level cultivator must at least have mastered the Daoist principles to have any effect on Li Wushou in his current state.

This was not a baseless conjecture by Li Wushou, but rather something he had figured out bit by bit over the past few days!
Aside from Huang Shigong, who was integrated with Chen Gou'er's flesh and blood, it was the Peng bird spirit body, which was corrupted by the chaotic Daoist aura, that provided Li Wushou with some progress.

The others had very little effect!

Li Wushou was somewhat troubled by this, because he knew that if things continued like this, sooner or later he would probably have to eat the flesh and blood of a Great Venerable.

With a bitter smile, Li Wushou's mind stirred.

At the neck of the primordial spirit, two golden head phantoms, one on the left and one on the right, wearing crowns, appeared and disappeared in the golden light.

Behind the primordial spirit, four illusory arms formed their own hand seals, gathering the fragrant smoke of incense.

The primordial spirit of the reborn deity, due to the extensive incense offerings, revealed a resemblance to a three-headed, six-armed being, much like a true god who held high the destiny star.

But the next moment, Li Wushou dispersed the illusory image.

Li Wushou felt a strange sense of unease at the sight of all the gods having three heads and six arms.

He always felt that something bad was brewing up inside!

However, this time, the old beggar actually revealed a divine form with three heads and six arms, which made Li Wushou somewhat confused.

After thinking it over, Li Wushou still didn't transform his primordial spirit into a three-headed, six-armed form.

The old beggar is the old beggar, and he is who he is. The old beggar may not care, but that doesn't necessarily mean he can be indifferent.

Composing himself, Li Wushou rose from the thatched hut on Sanxian Mountain.

Having remained secluded for some time, the Three Immortals Mountain has undergone a dramatic transformation.

Apart from the main peak, the surrounding mountains are dotted with pavilions, towers, and buildings, creating a scene reminiscent of a fairyland garden.

As I stepped out of the thatched hut, I heard a surprised voice beside me.

"Second Master, you've emerged from seclusion!"
