Two Realms High Martial Arts: Gathering the Heavens to Become a Great Luo Immortal

Chapter 467 Mid-stage Martial Saint, Paving the Way for True Immortals

The battle of the stars has come to an end.

The pure Yang primordial spirit that stretched across the starry river and manifested the illusory bridge to the other shore slowly withdrew its radiance, eventually transforming into a warm current and returning to Li Xijun's true form, who sat on the dragon throne in the Forbidden City's main hall.

Inside and outside the hall, thousands of cultivators were still immersed in the ultimate shock of witnessing the "heaven-defying" feat and the breathtaking "other shore," unable to recover for a long time. Only their heavy breathing and suppressed excitement flowed silently.

Now that Li Xijun had obtained the three source materials, he had no interest in staying to speak. He simply gave some instructions to Li Boyan, Wen Zhiyin and others before disappearing from the center of attention.

The commotion in the Forbidden City, the tremors in the world, and the uproar in the Refining God Realm were nothing more than a speck of dust on the path to a higher level, insignificant compared to the advancement in his Law Realm.

The next moment, he found himself in the island cave on the chaotic sea where he had broken through the tribulation of lightning.

This quiet and secluded place is the perfect spot for secluded meditation and enlightenment.

Deep within the cave, on a futon carved from a single piece of warm jade, Li Xijun sat cross-legged, his aura completely concealed, like a deep pool in an ancient well.

With a slight thought, three halos of light, each with a different color and undulation, enveloped by pure Yang divine power and subtle primordial dark aura, slowly emerged from his sea of ​​consciousness between his brows and floated in the void in front of him.

These are fragments of [Source Matter], left behind after the fall of the three Great Old Ones, possessing extremely high essence but severely corrupted and distorted:

One was a dark red mass, constantly wriggling slightly, as if billions of tiny pieces of flesh and blood were being born and dying; the other was grayish-white, constantly emitting subtle fluctuations that could cause mental confusion, as if sealing away countless mad knowledge.

The last cluster was a strange, translucent dark purple, with countless pupils opening and closing inside, reflecting distorted dreams and decadent whispers.

These three elements were meticulously arranged by the dormant world will "He" to supplement and reflect the ultimate core [Cosmic Darkness], attempting to construct a perfect "ritual" puzzle.

Now, however, it has become the source of Li Xijun's understanding of the original darkness and his knowledge of the laws.

"The primordial darkness is the end of all things, the destination of existence, the desolation after surging vitality, the desolation after brilliant civilization, the chaos after clear understanding, the eternally silent abyss to which all order ultimately slides."

Li Xijun stared at the three clumps of polluted primordial matter, his clear Yang spirit flowing with a profound understanding of the [Original Darkness of the Universe].

To understand "ending" more deeply, perhaps we need to first see more clearly the processes themselves that are about to end. Especially when these processes are presented in their most distorted, extreme, and utterly contrary to their original meaning, the trajectory and implications of their impending end may become even more pronounced.

His gaze finally settled on the grayish-white fragment of source matter.

"Madness, rebellion, distortion—this may be the process by which all things in this world descend into the abyss of darkness."

With his mind made up, Li Xijun no longer hesitated. He slowly closed his eyes, and the pure and immaculate divine sense of his Yang God directly probed its core, the faint light imprinted with the essential rules.

The instant that divine thought touched—

"boom!"

Endless, bizarre, and illogical fragments of "images," "sounds," and "concepts" rushed into Li Xijun's senses like a burst dam of sewage!

He saw countless distorted images screaming as they devoured themselves; he heard colors telling the lies of touch; he perceived time being torn and pieced together like a rag, the chain of cause and effect tied into an absurd knot; and "existence" itself might just be a chance birth within a larger dream—

If it were an ordinary cultivator, even a Thunder Tribulation True Monarch, upon encountering such a pure and insane torrent, they would likely instantly lose their reason, have their soul distorted, and become a madman who only knows how to eat.

However, Li Xijun's Yang spirit was already pure and immortal, and was further governed by the Dao heart of "Da Luo Yuan Shi", making it as solid as a rock.

He was like a calm observer, sensing the power of the laws that resonated with the original darkness from a height that transcended it.

The [Cosmic Primordial Darkness] source within him seemed to be touched by this distorted source matter, resonating slightly.

A profound realization, like a lighthouse shining in the darkness, gradually became clear.

This source of knowledge, which has been madly contaminated, is like a distorted funhouse mirror, reflecting in an extreme and painful way a possible path for "cognition" to descend into "original darkness".

Within Li Xijun's Yang Spirit, the law runes representing his understanding of the [Original Darkness of the Universe] began to become clearer, more complex, and more profound at an unprecedented speed.

Many previously obscure and profound truths have suddenly become clear under the reflection of this "distorted mirror"!

Li Xijun remained focused, continuing to immerse himself in this unique insight.

Time loses its meaning in this deep seclusion.

Outside the cave, the sun rises and the moon sets, the stars shift and the constellations turn. The tides of the East Sea rise and fall, fall and rise again.

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed quietly.

Inside the cave, Li Xijun remained seated cross-legged on the warm jade futon. The grayish-white source of knowledge in front of him had dimmed by nearly half, and the madness within had dissipated considerably, replaced by a hint of docility after being "understood" and "assimilated".

However, the aura surrounding him was undergoing a dramatic transformation.

At a certain moment, when Li Xijun's understanding of the original dark law broke through a critical point, an invisible yet powerful aura that seemed to slightly deflect the orbits of stars and tremble the void of the universe suddenly erupted from his body!

Mid-stage Martial Saint, achieved!

The next moment, he felt every cell in his body cheering and undergoing a deeper level of evolution and imprinting of laws.

His vitality is as boundless as the raging waves of the starry sea, yet as profound and restrained as the eyes of the Void.

With every gesture, one can more easily invoke the fundamental laws of the universe, the [Original Darkness], which represent the end and destiny!

Li Xijun slowly opened his eyes. The starlight in his eyes faded, the mountains and rivers disappeared, leaving only a deep and calm darkness, as if it could devour all light and vision.

He felt the power within his body was several times stronger than a year ago, his understanding of the Great Dao was more harmonious and unimpeded, and his control over the [Cosmic Origin Darkness] Law, which was already on par with the Dharma Body realm and even more threatening in some aspects. A satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

After a year of seclusion, using the distorted source matter as a mirror, he saw the true meaning of the original darkness, and finally, as the saying goes, he broke through to a new realm.

"I thought that as the primordial primordial being, the Dharmakaya that could perceive everything in the world as its resources, I had already made rapid progress."

"Unexpectedly, my path to comprehending the laws of the main world of the [Original Darkness of the Universe] has been made possible by the painstaking arrangements of that True Immortal in this world, which provided me with reference materials that were previously unobstructed even before the True Immortal realm."

Li Xijun was increasingly moved by the help the Great Sheng World had given him. Then, he turned his gaze to the remaining two [Source Essences].

"If that's the case, then I'll take this opportunity to directly elevate my understanding of the original Dark Laws to the late stage of Martial Saint!"
