Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao-Chapter 1279 - 23: The True Secret of Immortality
With the qualification of the Summoned, Zhou Yan now had the qualification to enter the ’Ancestor Dragon Main City.’
However, less than a month had passed, and the Ancestor Dragon Main City had not yet opened, so Zhou Yan could not enter for the time being.
Yet, obtaining the qualification for the Ancestor Dragon Main City in an instant indicated that Zhou Yan indeed had astonishing abilities, remarkable comprehension, and that the enlightenment this time had astonished the Master of Rules of the Ancestor Dragon Starfield.
Such talent and this kind of heart-shaking enlightenment equated to directly understanding the Tao towards advancing to the King Realm. Although there might not be immediate benefits now, in the future, this Creation, this opportunity, would be endless.
Such enlightenment, even in any Eternal Species, would be a shocking event. Once the other strong beings of the Eternal Species knew, countless strong beings might kneel to worship Zhou Yan, nurturing him carefully, as if he had taken the first step towards becoming a King.
Among the Eternal Life Tribes, there are many strong beings, but how many Kings are there?
In this situation, Zhou Yan didn’t care when he was unaware.
However, in that ancient Inheritance Land before the Immortal Domain Sea, Zhou Yan had far more understanding of these than an average Heavenly Heart, so naturally, Zhou Yan deeply understood the Creation and opportunities within.
For this reason, Zhou Yan did not continue to slaughter those Nine-Layer Sea of Suffering Realm Heavenly Heart, because for Zhou Yan, whether these Nine-Layer Sea of Suffering Realm Heavenly Heart or those Nine-Layer Sea of Suffering Realm bark-gum-monsters, they had no significant use to him.
When in the Nine-Layer Sea of Suffering Realm, Zhou Yan found no gains from killing these Demons, and now, perhaps killing these Demons could exercise the sealing aspect of the Bloodline Power, but in other respects, there was no significant progress.
Instead, it was less important than Zhou Yan’s own enlightenment.
Moreover, sometimes the process of battle could impact one’s understanding, interrupting Enlightenment.
So, Zhou Yan, not only indifferent to the life and death of those Nine-Layer Sea of Suffering Realm Heavenly Heart, also ignored those Demon Heart as well.
At this time, as Zhou Yan walked, he had profound insights into the Tao, and by integrating the reasons for every past Bloodline Transformation, Zhou Yan’s understanding of the Tao grew deeper.
In the Eighteenth-Layer Sea of Suffering Realm, there could be further advancement, but Zhou Yan did not progress again. Instead, he silently tempered his foundation.
The foundation is the strength of bloodline cells—the very premise for the survival of cells.
Like a dam; without a strong foundation, how could it hold a great volume of water?
The logic is the same, especially after understanding the most basic things. Zhou Yan was more so, repeatedly tempering his blood and refining every drop of blood within his body.
In the state of Emperor Blood 99th Transformation, Zhou Yan now had profound experiences.
And every time he made his bloodline more refined, Zhou Yan felt a noticeable improvement in his Blood Qi and combat power.
At this time, Zhou Yan realized something very important—it was not that there was no combat power that transcended realms in the Realm of Eternal Life, but that many people didn’t know the importance of Bloodline Transformation or how to transform their foundation.
At this moment, Zhou Yan felt grateful for Emperor Lei Yan’s Three-Life Soul Nourishment. Although many situations of Three-Life Soul Nourishment were very sad and tragic, even failures, one thing was successful—Zhou Yan established an extremely strong foundation in the God Realm’s Emperor Blood 99th Transformation and Supreme Realm Bloodline Transformation, as well as in various Emperor Blood trainings and Soul Body transformations, which were all accumulations.
Even after the Nine Origin Reincarnation, when everything returned to normal, the experience after the transformation made doing it all over again incredibly simple; experiencing transformation once more demonstrated a clearly reduced difficulty!
In addition, due to past experiences, Zhou Yan now had extraordinarily strong control over his body, a clear understanding of various aspects, and, thanks to the chip, a profound recognition of genes. Consequently, when these two were combined, coupled with the experience of two failed condensations of Immortal Soul Embryo, Zhou Yan had an incredibly deep understanding of the path to the future.
In this way, while others needed to explore and move forward, Zhou Yan could sprint forward every moment, simultaneously comparing and choosing a shorter route.
One method is to explore and move forward, stumbling along the way.
Another is to sprint while also taking shortcuts, showing clear advantages!
These are Zhou Yan’s advantages!
Now, it is not just these, but also the understanding and comprehension of future realms, as well as accumulated insights into the Tao, leadership in various aspects of rule’s Secret Techniques, and so on, all of which are very important factors.
These are all advantages.
These are also the factors for success after the Nine Origin Reincarnation.
Previously, even if everyone started at the same point, others might not be able to use these advantages. However, Zhou Yan, due to the chip, mastered the data in an unprecedented way, capturing every factor, opportunity, and even fleeting inspiration, so this time Zhou Yan’s path was without regret and nearly infinitely perfect.
Zhou Yan fully comprehended his own situation and became increasingly familiar with various abilities. He also attained a deeper understanding of the condensation of the Immortal Soul Embryo.
It was a transformation and evolution of the soul, equivalent to the bloodline.
From the Bitter Sea to Eternal Life, it’s not only the transcendence of the bloodline but also the transcendence of the soul body. Soul Embryo is essentially the transformation of soul into flesh.
When the flesh is cultivated to the utmost, it transforms into Soul Power. Soul Sea Conception turns into the Daoist Embryo, forming the Heavenly Dao Soul Embryo using the Power of Heaven.
With the power of the Soul Embryo, the rules are refined into bloodline, forming Eternal Life through the transformation and division of the bloodline.
This is the true profound meaning of Immortality.
This is the real secret of Immortality.
It’s equivalent to the ultimate path of both the flesh and soul.
Regarding Immortals and Buddhas, Zhou Yan has attained a similarly profound understanding through comparison and analysis at this moment.
Immortals and Buddhas cultivate not the flesh but the soul body, forming the Daoist Embryo via Soul Body Conception.
Continuously transforming the Daoist Embryo, forming one flesh body after another, three flesh bodies equivalent to Three-Life Soul Nourishment.
Finally, the Daoist Embryos of the three flesh bodies merge into one, forming an incomparably powerful Daoist Embryo. The Daoist Embryo is transformed to sever connections and karma, thus destroying the flesh bodies of Three-Life Soul Nourishment, suddenly allowing the Daoist Embryo to undergo an immortal transformation.
This is the saying of the Buddha Path cutting off three corpses.
Zhou Yan instantly comprehended everything clearly, feeling that he had not only activated the Nine Apertures Heart of the past but also unlocked various internal abilities like the Enlightenment Body and Void Body, all as if they were activated within him and completely revived.
Yet all these abilities fell silent once again, entering the Ancestral Dragon Secret Technique.
Zhou Yan gradually discovered that some of the abilities he lost were activated again due to the completeness of the Ancestral Dragon Secret Technique.
Among them, the Nirvana Profound Meaning was especially like the awakened restoration power of the past; in an instant, Zhou Yan felt that there was one more Soul Spring in the Soul Sea, possessing inexplicable Vitality Power capable of healing his injuries.
Though the Soul Spring was still very small with limited healing capabilities, it had already begun to demonstrate its potential power.
With a thought, the Soul Spring immediately flew out, appearing above Zhou Yan’s head like spring water flooding down, pouring onto Zhou Yan.
This state lasted only the span of a breath, but Zhou Yan instantly felt as vigorous as a dragon yet more powerful, generating an inexplicable strength capable of shattering the Void with a punch.
Zhou Yan clenched his fist, and the air exploded with a booming sound in his palm. In such a forceful rule space, even crushing air with bare hands was incredibly terrifying.
Zhou Yan was astonished, realizing that at the moment his bloodline accelerated nearly ten times in breeding and splitting ability when flooded by the spring, shaking him to his core.
This recovery ability immediately unlocked the life potential seal on the Bloodline Emperor Seal, instantly enhancing cell activity with dramatic changes.
In other words, this ability to restore the Soul Sea Soul Spring was secondary; it was the potential development within himself occupying half of the role.
After such restoration, repeatedly, his recovery ability and so forth naturally improved, since with each unlocking of the Emperor Seal, this seal would gradually loosen.
"This must be why the body becomes stronger every time it is shattered and reassembled!"
"Like a body growing more resistant to medication after consumption, this is the change in bloodline Emperor Seal’s seal; it’s the gradual unlocking of bloodline seal."
"Cultivation is essentially unlocking various seals within the bloodline."
"The ancient Human Clan, those from Earth Ancestral Land, born with Three Souls and Seven Spirits, possess such powerful abilities, but sadly their bloodlines are sealed and cannot be unlocked, otherwise each person might have the ability to create heaven and earth!"
"Soul Sea possessing one soul is already impressive; Three Souls and Seven Spirits are far mightier than imagined! Moreover, everyone in Soul Sea on the Earth Ancestral Land possesses a soul sea rule Heavenly Crystal—called the ’Pineal Gland,’ but tragically they cannot open its terrifying seal."
"The Heavenly Pivot Ancient Town back then might have just been the first layer of sealing, this is the crucial reason. The seals beyond it even now remain beyond my comprehension!"
"If not for suddenly being inspired by observing Su Qin and Zhang Yu’s bloodlines, detecting the change in the sealed Emperor Pattern, I perhaps still wouldn’t have discovered this enormous secret!"
