84: Divine Transformation

Early on the first morning, Blue Thirteen brought Lin Yuan to a dangerous place called "Soul-Breaking Gorge."

It stood at the entrance of the gorge, unleashed the pressure of a captain, and soon eighteen Gold Soul Spirits led hundreds of Soul Spirits to pay their respects.

"By the order of the Legion Commander!" Blue Thirteen's voice was majestic and resounding, completely different from the humbleness it showed when begging for mercy just moments ago. "The Northern Territory is in an emergency. Summon all combat power to gather at the center of the gorge immediately, prepare to set off!"

Those Soul Spirits did not suspect foul play and quickly lined up in the center of the gorge.

When the last Soul Spirit entered the ambush circle, Lin Yuan appeared from the shadows, and the chaos heavenly extreme sword bloomed with a dazzling purple-gold light.

"Devour of Time and Space!"

The sword light poured down like a galaxy, and the entire gorge was instantly enveloped by the distorted power of time and space.

Space shattered like a mirror, the flow of time became chaotic, and those Soul Spirits were twisted into dots of light before they could even scream.

Gold Soul Crystal dropped like raindrops, paving a brilliant gold carpet on the ground, which looked particularly eye-catching against the backdrop of the blood-colored desert.

【Killed First-Rank Gold Soul Spirit x18】

[Experience + 360 million]

【Killed First-Rank Purple Soul Spirit x267】

[Experience + 2.67 billion]

【Killed First-Rank Blue Soul Spirit x1192】

[Experience + 1.192 billion]

The System's notification sounds echoed in Lin Yuan's mind one after another, and the experience bar skyrocketed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Blue Thirteen stood to the side, its two arms twisted together uneasily, its liquid body trembling slightly, but it dared not say a word.

【Rank Up!】

[Current Rank: 72 (10 million / 100 million)]

[Divine Thought Strength: 7200 Yu (Level 40 divine sense tree)]

On the evening of the second day, they arrived at the tenth one-star force station—an underground cave called "Blood Cave."

Deep in the cave, more than thirty Purple Soul Spirits were directing thousands of low-Rank Soul Spirits to practice battle formations.

"My Lord, this is the last one." Blue Thirteen reminded in a low voice, its voice tinged with a bit of panic, "If we continue killing, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the Legion Commander..."

Lin Yuan nodded.

This time, he did not use a large-scale killing move but instead tried the newly comprehended space folding technique.

The chaos heavenly extreme sword turned into countless afterimages in his hands, each sword strike traversing space to hit the core of the Soul Spirit directly.

The blood-colored crystal ring on the sword flickered with an eerie light, and the soul-devouring characteristic was stimulated to the extreme.

In just ten minutes, the Soul Spirits in the entire cave were cleared out, and not even a wail could be heard outside the cave.

【Rank Up!】

[Current Rank: 100]

[Divine Thought Strength: 10000 Yu (divine sense tree Great Perfection)]

When the last Purple Soul Spirit dissipated into dots of light, a powerful force unprecedented in Lin Yuan's body surged out.

The divine sense tree in his Sea of Consciousness grew crazily.

In the blink of an eye, it broke through the height of 100 million meters.

Those originally tiny Law leaves on the trunk had now been nourished to grow to the size of a palm, emitting profound Law fluctuations.

Lin Yuan's Sea of Consciousness suddenly shook violently.

Lin Yuan directly took Blue Thirteen and used Space Law to escape to a safe area.

Afterward, Lin Yuan took out a flag.

This was a one-time Heaven and Earth wonder given to him by the Grand Hall Master before he left, which could conceal the secrets of heaven and allow Lin Yuan to block others' prying eyes when breaking through the Realm.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged beside the flag.

At this moment, the 100-million-meter-tall divine sense tree in his Sea of Consciousness bloomed with nine-colored divine light.

All the Law leaves on the trunk unfolded at the same time, and each leaf turned into a complete Law rune.

"Crack—"

A crisp cracking sound echoed through the Sea of Consciousness.

The skin of the divine sense tree began to peel off, revealing the crystal-clear tree core inside.

A dazzling beam of light suddenly burst out from the top of the divine sense tree crown, directly breaking through the dome of the Sea of Consciousness, piercing through Lin Yuan's crown, and shooting straight into the clouds.

The blood-colored Secret Realm outside suddenly changed color.

The blood-colored sky that had been eternally shrouded was forcibly torn open by this beam of light, and pure Heaven and Earth Origin Qi poured down like a waterfall, wrapping around Lin Yuan's entire body.

Every inch of his skin was glowing, and black Impurities seeped out from his pores, only to be instantly vaporized by the scouring of Origin Qi.

divine sense tree Great Perfection, unlocking the ultimate transformation of Divine Thought.

Lin Yuan looked inside his Sea of Consciousness in shock.

He saw that the transformed divine sense tree was no longer in the form of a tree but had turned into a glazed Dharma image with the same appearance as him.

The Dharma image was about one meter tall, crystal clear, and countless starlight flowed inside.

The original leaves all turned into stars, forming a miniature Universe around the Dharma image.

What was even more astonishing was that three rotating light wheels appeared on the chest of the Dharma image:

The silver light wheel represented Space Law, with countless spatial rifts being born and destroyed inside;

The gold light wheel represented Time Law, and one could see the phantom of the river of time as the pointers turned;

The purple light wheel represented Devouring Law, devouring the surrounding light points like a black hole.

"Is this... manifestation of Law?" Lin Yuan's heart was shaken.

He tried to control the Dharma image and found that the coverage of his Divine Thought had skyrocketed from a thousand miles to one hundred thousand miles, and the perception precision had improved by more than ten times.

The vibration of every grain of sand and the flow of every wisp of energy within a thousand miles were clearly distinguishable.

At this moment, the data panel generated after Lin Yuan fused with Primordial Purple Qi had a new prompt!

Host, please choose the Divine Thought transformation level (Simple, Normal, Difficult, Purgatory, Calamity, Myriad Tribulations, End), after choosing, the corresponding difficulty of Lightning Tribulation will descend, please choose carefully!

Lin Yuan chose the End difficulty directly.

Ever since he learned about the information of Taichu Divine Continent, he had been holding his breath, wanting to make himself stronger.

Since there was a challenge, he would just choose the highest difficulty!

【Nine Heavens Divine Lightning Tribulation activated】

[First Tribulation: Azure Heaven Wind Lightning Tribulation]

The sky suddenly cracked open a ten-thousand-foot rift, and cyan lightning wrapped in gale winds that tore through space crashed down.

The glazed Dharma image of Lin Yuan crossed its arms to take the blow head-on.

With a "crack" sound, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the Dharma image's arms, and the starlight flowing around its body dimmed by thirty percent instantly.

"Mere wind and lightning..." Lin Yuan gritted his teeth and urged his Divine Thought, only to find that cyan wind evil was entangled in the cracks, preventing the Dharma image from healing itself.

[Second Tribulation: Crimson Heaven Fire Lightning Tribulation]

Before he could catch his breath, a crimson lightning pillar poured down like magma.

The chest of the Dharma image was pierced through, and the nebula inside was burning violently.

Golden blood flames sprayed out from the seven orifices of Lin Yuan's main body, and the sand within a hundred miles melted into a glass state.

[Third Tribulation: Golden Heaven Soldier Lightning Tribulation]

Thousands of golden lightning spears fell from the sky, each strike accurately hitting the vital points of the Dharma image.

Lin Yuan was forced to sacrifice the chaos heavenly extreme sword to block, and seven cracks were struck into the sword body.

...

[Seventh Tribulation: Profound Heaven Soul-Extinguishing Tribulation]

Pitch-black lightning fell silently, attacking the Origin of Divine Thought directly.

The Dharma image was instantly covered with cracks, and the three Law light wheels showed signs of disintegration.

Lin Yuan's consciousness began to blur, and he saw countless memory fragments of his past and present lives flashing before his eyes.

"Am I going to stop here..." He knelt on one knee, golden blood burning holes in the sandy ground.

The Divine Thought Dharma image had been overdrawn and could no longer exert any power.

[Eighth Tribulation: Jade Heaven Dao-Transforming Tribulation]

The pure white lightning contained the Dao Law, and the Dharma image began to disintegrate from its fingertips.

"Do you regret it?" A voice rang in Lin Yuan's heart, "No!"

A look of determination flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes: "Explode!"

"Boom—"
