Chapter 449: Achieving the Earth Immortal Realm!

Tian Yun, Zhu Dong, and Su Yanlan exchanged glances.

After everything they had witnessed and seeing countless cultivators fall, with the Lower Realm’s resistance crumbling at an alarming pace, the three seemed to have reached the same conclusion.

They could no longer afford to wait.

Even if their current strength was insufficient and the difference between them and the Lightning Tribulation Divine Deity was practically insurmountable, they had to act.

Otherwise, the entire Lower Realm might be destroyed before they could find another opportunity.

Tian Yun’s eyes became resolute, Zhu Dong’s expression turned cold, and Su Yanlan’s blood colored spear released a piercing cry, an endless sea of blood beginning to emerge behind her again.

In the next instant, the three moved simultaneously.

*Boom!*

The void trembled as three terrifying auras erupted into the heavens.

Tian Yun held the Wooden Peach Divine Sword, his Supreme Daoist Physique radiating a profound purple light. Countless mysterious Dao patterns appeared around his body, and the surrounding heaven and earth began to resonate with his existence.

Zhu Dong stepped forward, and the remnants of his former majesty briefly manifested behind him.

Although his current cultivation was far inferior to his previous peak, the bearing of a former Immortal Sovereign was still extraordinary.

His fingers formed a mysterious seal, and countless Dao rhymes converged around his body, transforming into an enormous torrent of Spiritual Energy.

As for Su Yanlan, she thrust her blood colored spear forward.

The Dao of Slaughter erupted, a crimson river sweeping across the void, containing countless phantoms of fallen beings. Their resentment, killing intent, and unyielding will converged into an overwhelming force that surged towards the heavens.

The three figures crossed millions of miles in an instant, their attacks converging upon the young man clad in golden armor.

The Lightning Tribulation Divine Deity finally raised an eyebrow.

"Oh?"

He had not expected these three to take the initiative to attack him.

After witnessing the difference in their strength, most cultivators would have either fled or desperately sought an opportunity to survive.

Yet these three were doing the opposite, charging towards an opponent whose strength exceeded their own by multiple major realms, and perhaps even more than that when their foundations were taken into account.

How interesting.

The Lightning Tribulation Divine Deity smiled faintly.

"Since you are so eager to die, I shall grant your wish."

He raised his hand, violet blue lightning surging through the heavens and the surrounding worldly laws instantly gathered around his palm.

However, just as he was about to make his move, a strange sensation suddenly emerged within his heart.

It was extremely faint, so faint that he almost mistook it for an illusion.

The Lightning Tribulation Divine Deity paused for a fraction of an instant.

Then, his expression returned to normal.

The Lower Realm was already on the verge of collapse.

What could possibly change the outcome at this point?

He casually swept his gaze across the approaching figures.

The battle erupted once more.

...

Far away, within the Eternal Peak Dao Field in the Eastern Continent.

The spiritual mountains stood beneath an endless sky, and the ancient formations enveloping the Dao Field continued to operate in perfect harmony.

At the center of this secluded world was a peak reaching the sky, and in a cave abode on that peak sat Tian Yongheng.

His eyes were closed, and his body was motionless, yet the natural elements gathering above his crown had reached a critical point.

The natural elements of heaven and earth had long since begun to converge around him, becoming increasingly solid with each passing instant.

The natural elements intertwined, forming a mysterious cycle that seemed to encompass the principles governing the creation and destruction of all things.

These weren’t just the ordinary manifestations of the natural elements that cultivators could manipulate, but very foundation of the natural elements themselves, condensed through Tian Yongheng’s comprehension and refined by his cultivation.

Now, they were finally approaching completion.

*Buzz!*

A silent vibration spread throughout the void, causing the entire Lower Realm to resonate with it.

Within the cave abode, the natural elements suddenly became completely materialized, no longer resembling illusory fluctuations, but having become genuine manifestations of the fundamental elements of heaven and earth.

Countless mysterious Dao patterns emerged around Tian Yongheng’s body.

The natural elements converged towards him, then slowly revolved around his crown, forming an endless cycle. They all complemented one another, endlessly circulating without the slightest obstruction.

At that moment, Tian Yongheng’s body underwent a profound transformation.

His Indestructible Immortal Body began to sublimate.

Every cell, every bone, every meridian, and every strand of his physical existence underwent an extraordinary refinement.

His flesh became increasingly profound, as if it was no longer merely a physical body, but a manifestation of the fundamental principles governing existence.

His Inextinguishable Divine Energy followed soon after.

The Divine Energy in his Sea of Consciousness and physical body underwent a qualitative change, becoming incomparably more condensed and powerful.

Every wisp contained an overwhelming vitality, and every circulation seemed capable of sustaining the existence of an independent world.

Finally, his Imperishable Essence Soul began to transform as well.

Mortals cultivated the physical body to make it Immortal, and Immortals cultivated the soul to make it Immortal.

And now, Tian Yongheng’s Essence Soul seemed to transcend its former limitations.

It became increasingly harmonious with the surrounding natural elements, and the distinction between his own existence and the principles governing heaven and earth began to blur.

Immortal Body, Divine Energy, and Essence Soul, all three underwent sublimation simultaneously.

The transformation was so profound that even the laws of the surrounding space seemed to become more orderly.

A faint aura spread from Tian Yongheng’s body.

It was neither domineering nor deliberately oppressive, but there was an indescribable sense of natural harmony about him, as though he had become one with the natural elements.

It was as if heaven and earth were no longer just the environment in which he cultivated, but something he could directly comprehend, manipulate, and even reproduce through his own existence.

An Earth Immortal.

That was the true meaning of this realm.

Upon reaching the Earth Immortal Realm, a cultivator would condense the natural elements within their own existence, gradually establishing a self sufficient foundation that no longer depended upon the external environment in the same manner as before.

The natural elements would become an intrinsic part of their cultivation.

They could manifest those elements, manipulate their principles, and even create elementary worlds, not secret realms or hidden dimensions, but true worlds formed from the natural elements, independent of the Lower Realm, Upper Realm, and the likes.

Such worlds would initially be devoid of life and contain nothing more than the fundamental elements and the most basic principles of existence, but they were genuine worlds nonetheless.

And the power of an Earth Immortal came from precisely this transformation.

Tian Yongheng’s eyes slowly opened, a faint radiance flashing through their depths.

For a moment, the natural elements revolved within his pupils, reflecting an incomprehensible profundity before everything returned to normal.

Tian Yongheng slowly opened his eyes, lowering his head and examining his hands.

He could feel the extraordinary transformation that had occurred within his body.

His Indestructible Immortal Body, Inextinguishable Divine Energy, and Imperishable Essence Soul were now countless times more powerful than before.

Each drop of his Immortal Divine Blood contained terrifying energy.

If released without restraint, even a single drop could annihilate heaven and earth.

At the same time, he could now clearly sense the natural elements circulating within his existence.

They were no longer distant principles that he needed to borrow from the surrounding heaven and earth, but had become a part of him.

After a thousand and sixty years of cultivation, he had successfully entered the Earth Immortal Realm!
