524: Chapter 524 Dao Embryo Transformation, Advancement to the Late Stage

Inside the Dantian Sea of Qi, it had already turned into a stormy ocean of immortal dao rules.

The shattered Jiu Xuan Immortal Kingdom represented Heavenly Venerable of Nine Mysteries' lifelong understanding and application of immortal dao rules; it was the concrete manifestation of his Great Dao.

At this moment, these fragments of immortal dao rules were of a rank high enough to make the Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Realm tremble.

They were transforming into billions of golden raindrops, all pouring down upon Shen Yuanmo's chaos dao embryo.

An ordinary Cultivator, even a Mahayana Saint Lord, when faced with such complex and high-ranking immortal dao rules,

would have no choice but to have their dao foundation burst and be reduced to fly ash.

Each of these fragments contained the immortal dao rules and will-imprint of a True Immortal. They were incomparably overbearing and simply could not be absorbed by a Cultivator below the True Immortal rank.

But for the chaos dao embryo, this was the world's most top-tier supplement.

“Chaos Myriad Dao Returning Origin Scripture, rotate!”

Shen Yuanmo unified his mind, and the Cultivation Technique operated at an unprecedented speed.

The Chaos cyclone within his Dantian suddenly accelerated, forming a bottomless and terrifying Chaos Vortex.

The falling golden immortal dao runess, as soon as they touched the edge of the vortex,

were forcibly dragged, torn, and ground by an irresistible mighty force!

Crack! Crack!

The crisp sounds of shattering did not come from the physical level, but were the sounds of Heavenly Venerable of Nine Mysteries' immortal dao rules disintegrating.

One by one, complete immortal dao runess were forcibly smashed into fragments of immortal dao rules.

Under the assimilation power of Chaos, the will-imprint left by Heavenly Venerable of Nine Mysteries failed to produce even a single ripple before being completely erased.

Immediately after, at the brow of the dao embryo, that ancient Yuan Character General Outline burst forth with brilliant light.

Like a supreme emperor, it began to select, analyze, and reorganize these forcibly smashed fragments of immortal dao rules.

The Great Dao of Heavenly Venerable of Nine Mysteries emphasized being high above, commanding all things, and nourishing oneself.

But Shen Yuanmo's Great Dao was Chaos, the inclusion of myriad Daos, and the return of Chaos to the origin.

This was not simple devouring, but a higher-level Fusion and sublimation.

Shen Yuanmo did not attempt to understand the complete immortal dao of Heavenly Venerable of Nine Mysteries; that was unrealistic and unnecessary.

What he needed to do was dismantle the framework and flesh of these immortal dao rules, taking the essence and discarding the dregs.

Then, he would use these top-tier Materials to fill the gaps in his own Chaos Great Dao.

This process was mysterious beyond mystery.

It was like a Mortal craftsman obtaining the ruins of an immortal palace.

He could not understand the overall layout of the immortal palace, but he could smash those Immortal Golds and divine jades, melting them into bricks and stones to build his own house.

The Foundation of the house was still that of a Mortal.

But the Materials constituting it were already tainted with the attributes of an immortal.

As time passed, the form of the chaos dao embryo began to undergo changes visible to the naked eye.

On its originally Chaos-colored surface, billions of runes as fine as dust gradually emerged.

Every rune flickered, as if the life, death, and Reincarnation of a world were contained within.

These runes sometimes appeared as the grey of Chaos and sometimes flashed with a brilliant golden light; that was the manifestation of the immortal dao rules after being completely assimilated.

The aura of the chaos dao embryo rose steadily in an almost eerie calm.

Its essence was undergoing some kind of irreversible qualitative change.

Finally, when the last fragment of immortal dao rules was completely devoured, analyzed, and integrated into the chaos dao embryo by the Chaos Vortex—

Hum—

A Dao chime that seemed to come from the beginning of the Universe's creation rang out within Shen Yuanmo's Dantian.

The transformation of the chaos dao embryo was complete.

It still looked the same, sitting cross-legged with a solemn and dignified appearance.

But at this moment, anyone who caught even a glimpse of it would feel an impulse from the bottom of their heart to prostrate themselves in worship.

The Yuan Character General Outline at its brow had now completely turned into a pure, brilliant gold.

Within that gold, there was no longer the overbearing nature of Heavenly Venerable of Nine Mysteries, but a harmonious and immortal quality that accommodated all things and transcended the material world.

A half-step True Immortal rank chaos dao embryo!

The qualitative change of the dao embryo was like throwing a star into a calm lake, instantly triggering a chain reaction of the magic power within Shen Yuanmo's body.

Under the impact of this higher-dimensional power originating from the leap in life level, his originally stable Mahayana Middle Stage cultivation Bottleneck failed to organize even a shred of decent resistance.

That indestructible barrier was like thin ice meeting a blazing sun, melting away silently.

There was no earth-shaking roar, no phenomenon soaring into the sky.

Everything appeared so natural and inevitable.

Endless Chaos Spiritual Qi surged out from within the transformed chaos dao embryo.

The purity and majesty of that Chaos Spiritual Qi was more than ten times stronger than before!

The surging torrent of Chaos magic power, in a posture that could crush everything in its path, instantly washed through Shen Yuanmo's limbs, bones, and Meridians.

The Meridians, originally as wide as rivers, were further widened and reinforced under the impact of this torrent, becoming as vast as a galaxy.

At this moment, Shen Yuanmo's cultivation broke free from all shackles.

The peak of Mahayana Middle Stage—Breakthrough!

His cultivation aura did not pause for a moment, advancing triumphantly and crossing that natural chasm.

Finally, it settled steadily at a brand new, even higher level.

Mahayana Late Stage!

An unprecedented, terrifying power capable of shaking the stars filled every cell of Shen Yuanmo.

He even had an illusion that as long as he wished,

a single punch thrown now could punch a hole through the Heavenly Dao of this Canglan Realm.

Within the empty hall of the immortal estate, Shen Yuanmo slowly opened his eyes.

Two streaks of Chaos-colored divine light flashed and vanished; the space in front of him, like a scroll burned through, collapsed silently.

It revealed the deep, pitch-black void behind it, which took a long time to heal.

He raised his hand and gently clenched his fist.

“Crack, crack—”

With Shen Yuanmo's fist as the center, the space within a hundred-foot radius let out a groan of being overwhelmed, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared.

This was merely an unconscious movement on his part.

“Mahayana Late Stage...”

Shen Yuanmo felt the surging, sea-like power within his body, yet his expression remained as calm as ever.

“A half-step True Immortal rank chaos dao embryo, a Half-Step Immortal Soul. Heavenly Venerable of Nine Mysteries, I accept this gift.”

He spoke softly to himself, his voice devoid of any ripples.

It was as if all of this was only natural.

As his gaze swept across the still empty and deathly silent immortal estate, Shen Yuanmo's Divine Sense had already thoroughly investigated this place inside and out when he advanced to the Half-Step Immortal Soul rank.

There were indeed no Magic Treasures, Medicinal Pills, or Legacy Jade Slips left here.

But it was not entirely empty.

Shen Yuanmo revealed a profound smile.

He took a step forward, and his figure disappeared from the spot without any sign.

In the next instant, he appeared in the deepest part of the immortal estate, before a grand hall hidden behind layers of spatial rifts.

The style of this hall was completely different from the outside; it was no longer a simple stone hall.

Instead, it was forged from an unknown Immortal Gold that shimmered with a seven-colored glow.
