A person in the heavens, starting with a Chaos Emperor Dao Fruit

"The Dao of Cause and Effect has indeed been of great help to my Dao Integration!" After returning to Chaos, Yun Hua stood quietly in the void, looking out over the eight directions of the Chaos Universe.

Distance was no longer an obstacle, time and space were no longer barriers. Countless chaotic worlds, as well as countless stars and eternal realms, were all imprinted in Yunhua's eyes.

A single glance is enough to see countless territories.

He also saw many chaotic worlds where plants sprouted, grew, blossomed, and bore fruit.

He also witnessed the cycle of life and death of countless mortal beings.

He also saw many cultivators embark on the path of cultivation, gradually transcending life and death.

He also saw countless demons, monsters, and evil spirits...

Everything in the world was within his eyes; all things were connected by the mysterious threads of cause and effect.

At this moment, Yunhua slowly closed his eyes, quietly comprehending his ultimate fire path.

Under the constant influence of the Dao of Cause and Effect, Yunhua began to comprehend his ultimate Dao of Fire anew. During this time, he also noticed three "points" that made him somewhat uneasy. These were very likely the points where his ultimate Dao of Fire might go wrong in the future process of merging with the Dao.

The principle of cause and effect is an exceptionally difficult and mysterious principle in the chaotic universe.

Generally speaking, some Eternal Emperors only know how to follow the cause and effect in the dark to kill all the enemy's clones, but they don't understand anything else.

However, some emperors who are skilled in the way of cause and effect can control cause and effect, and hold all cause and effect and order in their hands. At that time, cause and effect will no longer be a constraint, but a power that can be controlled by them.

Of course, it is very difficult to reach such a level in the understanding of cause and effect.

Even with the help of the Stone Fire Pearl, some of the Great Dao from his past life's memories, and the frequent time acceleration during his enlightenment... it still took Yunhua so much time to achieve anything.

However, once he mastered this path, Yunhua felt that his perspective on the entire desolate and chaotic universe had changed dramatically. Ordinary rulers and emperors were simply no match for him.

"With the help of the Five Elements, Yin and Yang, the Way of Life and Death, plus the Way of Power, the Way of Thunder, the Way of Time and Space, and the Way of Cause and Effect, etc."

"My ultimate fire path still has three nodes that might cause problems. This ultimate path is no ordinary difficulty!" Yun Hua was secretly shocked.

"Very well, I will continue to comprehend it. No matter how much of the Dao I have, it will always help me to merge with the Dao. The Dao of Arrays and the Dao of Refinement should be the last two key paths!"

Yunhua sensed the cause and effect in the darkness and roughly understood the flaws in his ultimate path.

"There are three places where things might go wrong, and I still need to study them carefully!" Yunhua took a step forward and arrived in a territory he had never been to before, observing the society and life of this world while comprehending the Dao.

What followed was a very peaceful period, during which Yunhua walked alone in the universe, comprehending the Dao of Formations and the mysteries of the Dao of Refining.

These two paths are also the ones that require the most quiet. Whether it's setting up formations, refining pills, or forging weapons, it's a quiet and meticulous activity.

Yunhua's achievements in these two fields are steadily improving.

As these two paths improved, Yunhua also began to gain some insights into the ultimate fire path, which gradually helped to make up for the three "deficiencies" he had sensed.

During this time, Yunhua traversed countless dangerous places in the universe, and even visited some other universes. He witnessed the battlefields left behind by the cultivator civilization and the Sith race, and saw the "Dao traces" left behind by countless battles between powerful beings.

Of course, during this period, he also occasionally took action and killed some powerful Eternal Emperors.

These few simple moves made him famous and he became a monstrous Dao Lord recognized by countless people in the chaotic universe.

During this time, he also searched for things that could help him achieve Dao, such as the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower, the Fragrant Treasure Spirit Fruit, and treasures like the Cloud Realm Emerald Silk.

Unfortunately, things like the Fragrant Treasure Spirit Fruit and the Cloud Realm Emerald Silk are no longer of any help to him in achieving Dao, and even with time acceleration, the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower will still need several Chaos Eras to mature.

Time flies, and several chaotic eras have passed in the blink of an eye.

Deep in the icy sea, beside a frigid pool.

Yunhua and the two Source Walkers sat quietly not far away, drinking and chatting.

Chapter 1102 Simulation of Dao Integration

Within the chaos, two relatively perfect forms of life were conceived: one was the Chaos Divine Beast, and the other was the Ancient Cultivator.

Chaotic beasts are exceptionally gifted, but generally have low comprehension; while ancient cultivators are mostly in human form, and although they do not have the talents of chaotic beasts, their comprehension is much higher.

Within the origin of the chaotic universe, two more advanced life forms were also conceived: one was the Chaos Source Beasts with lower intelligence; the other was the highly intelligent humanoid beings, also known as Source Walkers.

Chaos Origin Beasts are upgraded versions of Chaos Divine Beasts, while Origin Walkers are upgraded versions of Ancient Cultivators.

Chaos Origin Beasts have very low intelligence, like children, but possess near-immortality; while Origin Walkers, although lacking such strong talent, can continuously improve themselves through cultivation, making them a very powerful and terrifying race in the universe.

However, the Origin Walker clan has always been arrogant and looks down on other cultivators. Yunhua had helped them in some ways, which is why they allowed her to pick the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower here.

“Jie Huo, the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower you requested will be blooming soon!” said one of the Source Walkers beside him.

Yunhua had naturally already set her sights on that budding flower.

"Whoosh!!" Soon, the flower began to bloom without warning, a mysterious fiery power spreading within it, finally transforming into a dazzling crimson flower.

"The Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower... This kind of use of fire power is already at the Emperor level!" Yun Hua's eyes kept showing the special nature of the fire power, and after a long time, the light in his eyes dimmed.

Then, with a casual wave of his hand, he plucked the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower and placed it into a jade box. At the same time, he also set up a time-slowing array inside the box.

Things like the Dao-Harmony Fire Cloud Flower have a time limit; once picked, they must be used within a thousand years, otherwise they become useless. Therefore, this kind of time-slowing formation is also very energy-intensive.

"Gentlemen, I've troubled you these past few days, it's time for me to go!" Yunhua said, looking at the Source Walkers beside him.

"The ultimate path to merging with the Dao is extremely difficult. I hope that Fellow Daoist Jiehuo can become the first ultimate emperor!" The Origin Walkers also smiled and bid farewell to Yunhua.

After leaving the Icewind Sea, Yunhua immediately headed towards the Supreme Cave.

"You're back, but have you solved the problem of the Eternal Heart?!" The spirit of the cave looked at Yunhua.

Yunhua shook her head and said, "It's not that fast. The Eternal Heart has only been solved up to the sixty-third level. There's still a long way to go before it's fully solved. I need to use the Dao Platform here to enter seclusion. Don't disturb me."

With that, Yunhua entered the octagonal hall of the Supreme Cave.

"Secluded in seclusion!?" The spirit of the cave was stunned for a moment, then realized that a Dao Lord who secludes himself in seclusion does so for only one thing: to merge with the Dao.

"The Dao of Union, the ultimate Dao of Union, I hope you can succeed!" The spirit of the cave dared not go in and disturb Yunhua, so he quietly guarded outside.

At the same time, as soon as she entered the secret room, Yunhua immediately took out a jade box.

The jade box was opened, revealing a complete flower surrounded by floating fiery clouds—the Dao-Harmony Fiery Cloud Flower.

“In the original story, Ji Ning used this flower to simulate three years of Dao Integration; but for me, doubling the time is not a problem, simulating six years should be a piece of cake!” Yun Hua looked at the flower and also at the Stone Fire Pearl in his body.

Both the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower and the Stone Fire Pearl are supreme treasures of the Dao-Merging realm in this world. And most importantly, their core power lies in fire!

This kind of treasure only provides ordinary assistance to the integration of sword and saber techniques; its effect may be greatly reduced for conflicting paths like the Water Path; but it provides a greater boost to Yunhua's Fire Path.

"Begin to merge with the Dao!" Yunhua immediately closed his eyes and introspected on himself.

His divine body was composed entirely of 108,000 divine crystals, each containing his divine power, soul, and true spirit, as well as Yunhua's complete understanding of the ultimate fire path.

Within the Golden Core Chaos Space, the Dao Tree stood majestically, and every leaf and every branch was a materialization of Yunhua's entire understanding of the Dao of Fire.

There is also the World of the Heart, a vast and magnificent world of flames filled with endless mysterious scenes, and at its core, a huge volcano steadily suppresses the entire world.

The divine body, the golden elixir, the world of the heart, and the Dao heart—everything has reached its most perfect state.

At the same time, countless insights echoed in his heart.

To achieve the Dao, one must gather all one's insights and bring about a qualitative change. This involves allowing the Dao Tree in the Golden Core's chaotic space to grow an eternal flower; transforming the divine body into an eternal divine body; and turning the divine crystal into the "heart of the world." It also allows the world of the heart to advance further and become more real.

"Let's begin!" Yun Hua's mind raced, and instantly—"Boom!!"

Every divine crystal within his body began to disperse automatically, and then rapidly progressed to a higher level of life; at the same time, the Dao Tree within his body was also trembling, and countless insights gathered at the top of the Dao Tree.

At this moment, if someone were standing next to him, they would see that his body was beginning to radiate brilliant flames. Countless flames spread out from Yunhua as the center, and the pressure emanating from those flames alone was enough to shock the strongest ruler among the Eternal Emperors.

These flames are not real flames, but the light of the "Dao," the light of the ultimate fire Dao. When any Dao Lord merges with the Dao, their body will involuntarily radiate the most brilliant and dazzling light, which is also the most dazzling moment of their life.

Only such dazzling light can truly unleash the power of the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower.

"Rise!" Yunhua opened his eyes and looked at the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower.

The light emanating from his body, belonging to the ultimate fire path, shone on the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower, and immediately, under Yun Hua's guidance, the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower began to change.

Then, the fire clouds formed by the flames on the Fire Cloud Flower began to condense into a semi-transparent human figure, exactly like Yun Hua.

This is the incarnation formed by the Dao-Harmony Fire Cloud Flower.

The reason this item is a supreme treasure for achieving Dao is that it can take an extremely short time for a Dao Lord to simulate their own Dao, a simulation of achieving Dao.

In this state, if anything seems amiss, it can be corrected in time during the formal process of achieving Dao integration, thus greatly increasing the probability of the cultivator successfully achieving Dao integration.

"Virtual Dao Integration, let's begin!" Yunhua immediately began virtual Dao Integration.

As the process of merging with the Dao began, a majestic Dao tree soon appeared within the avatar formed by the Dao-merging Fire Cloud Flower.

The power of the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower is limited, so Yunhua only simulates the Dao Tree in the Golden Core, and does not simulate the divine body and the world of the heart.

Moreover, Yunhua only used the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower to verify his own Dao. As long as there is no problem with his Dao, then there will naturally be no other problems later.

Time flows by little by little.

The avatar within the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower was in the Dao-Merging state, and all the insights into the ultimate fire path converged within the Dao Tree. Finally, a thick branch began to grow in the very center of the Dao Tree, and two leaves sprouted from the branch, one radiating a mysterious and unfathomable aura, and the other vast and boundless.

Chapter 1103 Formal Integration with the Dao

In the center of these two leaves, an inconspicuous little flower bud is growing little by little.

"The simulation of merging with the Dao went smoothly; my path was correct."

“That’s right. I have already reached the pinnacle of my own ultimate fire path, and I have also derived the same result by deducing from the ultimate fire paths of my predecessors through another path. How could my path be wrong?” Yunhua’s confidence was stronger than ever before.

Moreover, with the help of the Stone Fire Pearl, the Supreme Stone Platform allowed Yunhua to enter an unprecedented state, a perfect state of enlightenment, where all his insights were perfectly integrated into this state of enlightenment.

Time passed year by year, and three years went by in the blink of an eye.

The flower bud in the Dao Tree has grown from its previous insignificance to its limit, and now it can no longer grow. All the insights into the ultimate Dao of Fire are perfectly contained within this flower.

"My previous calculations were indeed correct. The Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower is a fire-attribute power, which is of the greatest help to my ultimate fire path of merging with the Dao. Now, I still have half of its power left, which can last for another three years!" Yun Hua was slightly pleased.

To achieve the ultimate path and successfully merge with the Dao is more difficult than with ordinary paths, and it takes almost as long as the limit of the time limit for merging with the Dao—nine years.

If six years can be saved at once, then even if He Dao encounters any difficulties in the future, there will be enough time to solve them.

"Begin to bloom!" With a thought, Yunhua immediately controlled the flower bud she had transformed into to bloom.

"Buzz!" In almost an instant, the flower bud began to slowly bloom. Throughout the entire process, Yunhua remained cautious and careful, not letting any opportunity for a mistake slip by.

"That's right, it's been correct so far. There's still no problem, keep going!"

Yunhua was very cautious. As the Eternal Flower bloomed, his "Eternal Ultimate Fire Path" also began to take shape. Everything was perfect, without a single mistake.

This also means that his path remains perfect to this day. Years have passed.

"Hmm!?" Finally, after another three years, Yunhua's expression changed, because all the flames and mist within the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower had completely dissipated, and his simulated Dao-Merging avatar trembled slightly before vanishing into thin air. The virtual Dao-Merging process had naturally come to an end.

"Just as I predicted, the Dao-Merging Fire Cloud Flower can only last until my Eternal Flower is half-bloomed." Although Yunhua was surprised, he quickly regained his composure, because everything was exactly as he had predicted.

"However, it's not bad. It saved me six years, and I didn't make a single mistake during those six years."

"No, my ultimate fire path can't be wrong!" Yun Hua quickly calmed down and adjusted his mindset, divine body, and the Dao Tree in his Golden Core Chaos Space.

"Then let's truly merge with the Dao now!" Yunhua made up her mind.

Although the virtual Dao Merging process lasted for six years, due to the flow of time, only a short time had actually passed.

"Buzz!!" Almost instantly, Yunhua's speed of merging with the Dao increased countless times.

Within his divine body, the transformation of each divine crystal was progressing at an unimaginable speed, almost surpassing the achievements of an ordinary Dao Integration cultivator in one or two years in the blink of an eye.

Similarly, the Dao Tree within his body, just as simulated before, condensed a brand new branch, grew two leaves, and reached its peak in the blink of an eye before bursting into bloom.

"Boom!!"

The moment the Flower of Eternity bloomed, Yunhua shone with unprecedented brilliance, and a terrifying pressure surged in all directions. Even the spirits of the cave waiting outside were shaken to their core and involuntarily lowered their heads. It was a fear from the very core of life, like a pig facing a tiger.

"Such a strong, scorching aura! Is this the Eternal Ultimate Fire Path?" The spirit of the cave was utterly shocked.

In his perception, the hall where Yunhua was in seclusion had transformed into a giant furnace, with the light of the fire being extremely fierce, towering high above and containing unimaginable power. It almost instantly surpassed the so-called "ruler" among the Eternal Emperors, and even approached the Supreme level.

All the array formations and restrictions in the Supreme Cave have been activated, perfectly isolating Yun Hua's aura; otherwise, the aura of his Dao Integration alone would have been enough to shake the entire realm.

"As expected of the ultimate path, if it succeeds, only the Supreme Being can rival it in the entire Chaos Universe," the spirit of the cave thought to itself.

He couldn't imagine just how powerful the Eternal Ultimate Emperor was, because such an existence had never been born in this universe before, nor could he guess what kind of power the Ultimate Emperor possessed.

But now, based solely on this oppressive aura, the spirit of the cave is certain that once Yunhua successfully merges with the Dao, he will truly be comparable to a supreme being.

"I hope you can succeed in the ultimate path of eternity, so that what the master left behind will have been worthwhile." The spirit of the cave also looked forward to it.

At this moment, Yunhua's path to enlightenment has reached its later stages.

The eternal flower in the tree he said had already bloomed halfway, and what followed was something that had not been simulated before.
