434: Born first!

The initial momentum had been completely expended, leaving only the normal state of impact.

At the same time, Wang Teng, seeing that the time was right, had already stopped supplying the light cluster.

As if understanding its own predicament, the light cluster gradually stopped its Impact.

And its aura was completely suppressed to the limit of the Mortal Realm.

However, this Mortal Realm limit was even closer to the extreme than Chen De and the others.

Because as a congenital being, he was naturally meant to be immortal.

So his situation was a suppression from top to bottom, while Chen De's was an uplift from bottom to top.

Therefore, if Chen De and the others were at the Mortal Realm limit, the other party was at the limit of the Mortal Realm's limit.

A truly unadvancable state, firmly locked below the Immortal Realm.

To be precise, the other party could be called the first Mortal Realm limit in the lower planes throughout history.

After the light cluster stopped its impact, its surroundings began to change continuously.

Gradually, he began to take on a human form.

According to legends in martial arts, this state is called the Dao Body.

Regardless of any living being—humans, demons, plants, stones, etc.—once they achieve immortality, they can condense a corresponding Dao Body.

This is also known as transformation, a true transformation.

The transformation of a demon beast in the Demon Transformation Realm is more like an early enlightenment.

Although it's unclear why, the Dao Body exists in human form.

Or rather, it's not that the Dao Body resembles humans, but that humans resemble the Dao Body.

Humans can be seen as a type of demon beast or other living being that resembles a Dao Body.

Cultivating to the Immortal Realm also requires transformation, and one can obtain an appearance vastly different from before.

The current body can only be called the original form, the true body.

The appearance of a Dao Body is often determined by the practitioner's cultivation characteristics and personal character.

As for innate beings, at the moment of their birth, they possess a unique innate Dao Body based on their individual origin.

Wang Teng and the members of the Ancient Hall were seeing such a Dao Body for the first time.

They also didn't expect that an existence below the Immortal Realm could condense a Dao Body.

This defied common sense, but upon closer thought, it didn't seem to defy anything.

After all, there had never been a congenital being in the Mortal Realm before.

It might be quite normal for him to have some unique qualities.

To witness the process of a Dao Body condensing with their own eyes, for most of them, was a blessing for three lifetimes, even if they couldn't become immortals.

In the very center of the grand formation, the light of the cyan-gold light cluster gradually converged, revealing the being within.

A congenital being, born immortal, born knowing!

There was no so-called infancy, adulthood, or other stages common to ordinary beings.

Their life has only one stage, one stage from beginning to end.

Appearance is born from the heart; congenital beings born from different natures and origins have different appearances at birth.

This is related to their innate origin attribute.

Congenital beings born from origins like ancient bedrock or indestructible mountains are mostly calm and introverted, often appearing in middle age.

Congenital beings born from origins like nascent flames or raging tides are mostly brave and aggressive, often appearing in youth.

Congenital beings born from origins like ethereal void, gathering and dispersing unpredictably, are mostly detached and enlightened, often appearing in old age.

Of course, specific situations still need specific analysis; sometimes, completely opposite situations may occur.

In the path of cultivation, the two most impossible words are 'definitely' or 'certainly'.

Whatever variables arise, they are all very possible.

At this moment, after the cyan-gold light cluster retracted, what appeared was a young man in cyan-gold armor.

His black hair cascaded over his shoulders, and he slowly opened his eyes, revealing cyan-gold pupils within.

Indifference, coldness, rationality, disdain, pride, condescension... these emotions were abundant and displayed without reservation.

A mere glance at everyone present brought immense pressure upon them.

“Heh, a congenital divine being who isn't even in the Immortal Realm after birth is indeed a first in history.”

“How... do you wish to die?”

Everyone heard the young man's voice, and the chilling coldness it conveyed.

No one was surprised that he possessed such high intelligence and maturity right after birth.

Congenital beings, born with knowledge, are just that domineering.

“Boastful!”

Others dared not speak, but Holy Monarch You Tian did; he was Wang Teng's top subordinate.

The other party was currently in the grand formation, on their territory, yet still dared to be so arrogant.

He was merely a lamb to the slaughter; look how capable he thought he was.

The congenital youth, however, heard him and looked directly in the direction of Holy Monarch You Tian, meeting his gaze.

The cyan-gold pupils in his eyes flickered slightly, and Wang Teng's expression immediately changed; clearly, he also sensed the unusual nature of that moment.

He was about to intervene, but it was already too late.

From Holy Monarch You Tian’s body, cyan-gold rays of light suddenly shot out.

From inside to outside, from various parts of his body—skin, torso, limbs, seven orifices—light beams continuously shot outwards.

And this area kept increasing, the light beams grew thicker, and the exits from which the light beams shot out from his body also grew larger.

In just an instant, his entire being was dissolved by the cyan-gold light.

Wang Teng had already arrived beside Holy Monarch You Tian, but he could only watch him die helplessly.

Because the moment Holy Monarch You Tian met the gaze of the congenital youth, he was already dead.

Everything that followed was merely a residual effect of death.

Witnessing such a terrifying scene, even their own Hall Master couldn't save anyone in time.

Many Ancient Hall members wanted to retreat, but without Wang Teng's command, they remained still.

Wang Teng also understood that the upcoming events were not something they could get involved in; staying would only mean death, so he said, “You all may leave first.”

“Do not linger in this realm for now; I will notify you all later.”

“Yes.” Having received Wang Teng's command, the many Holy Monarchs and Envoys could finally retreat, doing so with great speed.

The congenital youth didn't bother to act against these minor characters; instead, he fixed his gaze on Wang Teng.

Although he had just been born, he knew what had happened during the years of his gestation.

It was Wang Teng who had taken him away from his initial place of gestation.

He naturally also knew whose masterpiece these net-like blood-colored meridians that restricted him were.

Most importantly, among all the people present, only Wang Teng's strength could pique his interest slightly.

“With your current abilities, you're still a bit lacking,” the congenital youth said very seriously.

Wang Teng smiled, “As expected of a legendary congenital being; that strike after just killing my subordinate was indeed extraordinary.

That's not any method I know of; it seems to be your innate ability.”

“Heh heh.” The congenital youth did not deny it, which was a form of affirmation.

“As the saying goes, one must look at the owner before hitting a dog, let alone my subordinate,” Wang Teng also revealed killing intent, “Then let me experience what it means to be a congenital being!”

With that, Wang Teng immediately continued to activate the grand formation.
