Mortal Cultivator

Wang Lu gradually realized that the resources in the Jiuzhou Continent could no longer satisfy his pursuit of a higher realm.

So, he resolutely decided to embark on a journey outside the domain to explore the opportunities in the unknown world.

Wang Lu's adventure outside the domain was full of hardships and challenges. He crossed countless mysterious star fields and encountered various strange alien creatures and dangerous interstellar traps.

But with his indomitable perseverance and endless wisdom, he escaped danger again and again.

One day, Wang Lu felt a faint Dao rhyme fluctuation in the depths of a mysterious nebula.

This fluctuation was extremely strange, containing both the familiar breath of the Tao of Immortality and a mysterious power that he had never experienced before. Wang Lu was overjoyed, and he knew that he might have discovered an unprecedented opportunity.

Following the guidance of the Dao rhyme fluctuation, Wang Lu came to a huge asteroid. This asteroid looked ordinary, but deep in its core, Wang Lu sensed the source of the strong Dao rhyme.

He carefully sneaked into the asteroid and used his spiritual sense to carefully explore.

Finally, in the deepest part of the asteroid, Wang Lu found a Taoist spring emitting brilliant light. This Taoist spring is not big, only a few feet in radius, but the spiritual power contained in it is extremely rich and pure, as if it is the essence bred when the world was first created.

Runes flickered around the Taoist spring, and these runes intertwined into mysterious formations, as if guarding this precious Taoist spring and preventing its spiritual power from leaking out.

Wang Lu approached the Taoist spring carefully, as if he was afraid that his actions would disturb this magical place. He squatted down, his eyes focused and sharp, staring closely at the spiritual power flowing slowly in the spring.

As time went by, Wang Lu gradually saw the clues. It turned out that these energy flows that seemed similar to ordinary five-element spiritual power were actually fundamentally different. The power they contained was stronger and purer, and full of an indescribable sense of mystery.

This original spiritual power was like the brightest star in the night sky, emitting charming light; it was also like a pearl in the deep sea, hidden but priceless. Its trajectory is both complex and orderly, like a gorgeous dance, which makes people fall in love with it.

This kind of spiritual power can be directly absorbed by the cultivator and transformed into his own cultivation, without any impurities or side effects.

Wang Lu was very excited, and he knew the value of this spring. If he could absorb all the spiritual power in this spring, his cultivation would surely break through to a new realm, and he might even be able to peek into the deeper secrets of the way of cultivation.

However, just as he was about to start absorbing spiritual power, he suddenly sensed a dangerous breath.

It turned out that this spring was not ownerless. In the depths of the spring, there was a powerful guardian beast hidden.

The guardian beast felt Wang Lu's breath, woke up instantly, and let out a thunderous roar. Then, it rushed out of the spring and pounced on Wang Lu.

Wang Lu widened his eyes and stared at the front with full concentration. I saw that the guardian beast was huge, as majestic and majestic as the legendary Qilin. However, unlike the common Qilin, it exudes a mysterious and dark blue light, as if it came from the underworld, which is chilling.

Looking at the eyes of the guardian beast, they are like the bright stars in the night sky, deep and profound, containing endless power and majesty. Just by being stared at by it, Wang Lu felt an invisible pressure coming at him, as if he was about to be crushed.

Facing such a strong enemy, Wang Lu did not dare to take it lightly. He took a deep breath, tightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand, and then pulled it out suddenly, and the sword with a cold light flashed out of the sheath in an instant. Wang Lu held the long sword horizontally in front of him, and put on a posture of being ready to meet the attack that the guardian beast might launch at any time.

The guardian beast launched an attack, and it spit out blue flames from its mouth. The temperature of the flames was extremely high, and the space was distorted wherever it went. Wang Lu used all his skills. He flashed his body to avoid the attack of the flames and swung his sword to counterattack. His swordsmanship was extremely sharp, and each sword contained powerful spiritual power, stabbing towards the vitals of the guardian beast.

However, the guardian beast was extremely powerful, and its body was as hard as iron. Wang Lu's sword could only splash a few sparks when it stabbed it, and it could not cause any substantial damage to it. After several rounds, Wang Lu gradually fell into a disadvantage.

But Wang Lu was not discouraged. He knew that at this critical moment, he must think calmly and find the weaknesses of the guardian beast. While dodging the attacks of the guardian beast, he carefully observed its movement patterns.

Finally, Wang Lu discovered that before the guardian beast launched a fire attack each time, the rune on its abdomen would flicker slightly.

He had a thought in his mind, guessing that the rune on the abdomen might be its weakness.

So, Wang Lu decided to take a risk. He deliberately revealed a flaw to induce the guardian beast to launch a fire attack.

At the moment when the flames were ejected, Wang Lu displayed a special body technique, his body was like lightning, and he instantly bullied himself under the abdomen of the guardian beast. He did not hesitate to stab the rune on the guardian beast's abdomen with all his strength.

With a scream, the rune on the guardian beast's abdomen was pierced by Wang Lu's sword, and a powerful spiritual power wave burst out from its body. The guardian beast struggled in pain, and its power was instantly weakened.

Wang Lu seized this opportunity and continued to attack. He used his strongest sword skills, and sword energy crisscrossed and enveloped the guardian beast. Under Wang Lu's fierce attack, the guardian beast gradually lost and finally fell to the ground.

Wang Lu breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he had finally defeated the guardian beast and could absorb the spiritual power in the Dao Spring with peace of mind. He came to the Dao Spring, sat cross-legged, circulated his spiritual power, and began to absorb the original spiritual power in the Dao Spring.

As the spiritual power was continuously absorbed, a layer of golden light appeared around Wang Lu's body.

His cultivation was also improving at an astonishing speed, from the early stage of the Golden Core Stage to the middle and late stages of the Golden Core Stage, and finally reached the Yuanying Stage.

At the moment of breaking through to the Yuanying Stage, Wang Lu felt an unprecedented powerful force. His spiritual consciousness became more acute, and he could clearly perceive all the subtle changes in the surrounding universe. His body was also greatly strengthened, and there was a qualitative leap in strength, speed and defense.

Not only that, in the process of absorbing spiritual power, Wang Lu also realized some deeper mysteries of the Tao of Immortality. He had a more thorough understanding of the laws of heaven and earth, and was able to use spiritual power and cast spells more freely.

After several days of closed-door cultivation, Wang Lu finally absorbed most of the spiritual power in the Dao Spring. His cultivation was stable at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Stage. Although he had not completely absorbed the spiritual power of the Dao Spring, he knew that he could not be too greedy. The spiritual power in this Dao Spring was extremely precious. If it was overabsorbed, it might cause some unknown dangers.

Wang Lu stood up and looked at the Dao Spring in front of him, his heart full of gratitude. He knew that the discovery of this Dao Spring would become an important turning point in his path to immortality. He left some of his own marks and prohibitions beside the Dao Spring to prevent other cultivators with ill intentions from coming to destroy it.

Then, Wang Lu left the asteroid with a full heart of harvest and continued his journey outside the domain. He knew that there were more opportunities and challenges waiting for him in this vast universe. And he, with his wisdom and courage, continued to explore and move towards the peak of immortality.

Wang Lu, a talented disciple of the Spirit Sword School, went through untold hardships outside the domain and finally found a magical Dao Spring. This spring is hidden in an asteroid at the core of an ancient nebula. Runes flicker around it, as if telling the long and mysterious years.

Wang Lu stood in front of the spring, looking at the spring water emitting dim light and full of spiritual power, his heart was full of heat. He knew that the power contained in this spring might be the key to his breaking through the bottleneck of his current realm. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, slowly sat cross-legged, and began to use his power to guide the spiritual power in his body to echo the power of the spring.

As the practice was running, Wang Lu gradually felt a pure and vast power slowly seeping out of the spring, winding along his meridians like a spirit snake. Wherever this power went, some hidden impurities in the body began to stir, as if they were expelled by an invisible force.

At first, the discharge of impurities was relatively smooth. Wang Lu only felt a slight heat all over his body, and a slight tingling sensation in his meridians. It was the spiritual power washing away the subtle blockages. However, as the power of the Dao Spring penetrated deeper, some deep-seated impurities gradually emerged. They were closely connected to the meridians, flesh and blood, and stubbornly resisted this purifying force.

Fine beads of sweat gradually oozed from Wang Lu's forehead, his teeth clenched, and he felt a burst of stabbing pain in his body, as if countless fine needles were piercing his flesh and blood and meridians. But he was determined and would never give up. He endured the severe pain and increased the circulation of spiritual power, trying to use a stronger force to push the impurities out.

At this time, the spiritual power gushing out of the Dao Spring became more and more turbulent, like a surging tide, hitting the impurities in Wang Lu's body wave after wave. Under the action of this powerful external force, some larger impurity groups began to loosen, slowly peeled off from the meridian wall, and went out of the body with the flow of spiritual power.

Wang Lu only felt a sweetness in his throat, and spit out a mouthful of blood clots with black impurities. This blood clot contained toxins and blood stasis accumulated over many years of practice, as well as some mixed spiritual power left over from practicing the exercises. As he spit out the blood, he felt his chest relax and his breathing became much smoother.

But he knew that this was just the beginning. There were still a lot of impurities in his body that were resisting stubbornly, especially near the Dantian and the Purple Palace. Some extremely stubborn impurities formed a small barrier-like existence, guarding their "territory" tightly.

Wang Lu's eyes condensed, and his hands quickly changed the spells, performing a spiritual spell specifically used to purify the meridians and Dantian. As soon as this spiritual spell came out, the speed of the spiritual power in his body suddenly accelerated, forming small spiritual power vortices. These vortices quickly traveled along the meridians, and wherever they went, impurities were drawn into them, and then crushed and turned into the finest dust, which was taken out of the body with the flow of spiritual power.

During this process, Wang Lu's clothes had long been soaked with sweat, and his body was trembling slightly, as if he was bearing a huge load. But his eyes were always firm, staring at the Daoquan, constantly absorbing the power in it to support his purification.

As time went by, the impurities in Wang Lu's body gradually decreased, and his meridians became smoother and purer. The spiritual power that was originally a little obscure now became extremely smooth, like a gurgling stream, flowing happily in the meridians. He could clearly feel that his cultivation was also quietly improving in this process, from the original middle stage of the shaping path to the late stage.

However, just when he was about to break through to the late stage of shaping the Dao, a difficult hurdle stood in front of him. Deep in his purple palace, there was a core impurity formed by the fusion of multiple impurities. This impurity was dark black and exuded an evil and powerful aura. It was tightly wrapped around Wang Lu's purple palace spiritual platform, like a sleeping demon. Once touched, it would burst out with amazing resistance.

Wang Lu tried to use the spiritual power vortex to impact this core impurity, but found that every impact was like hitting an extremely hard iron mountain. Not only could it not shake it at all, but it also caused him to suffer backlash and his spiritual power was disordered.

Wang Lu fell into a brief contemplation. He knew that conventional methods were difficult to deal with this core impurity. So he began to recall the various skills and spiritual arts he had learned in the past, as well as the various anecdotes he had heard on the way to cultivating immortals, trying to find a solution from them.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind, and he remembered an ancient purification method - spiritual flame refining marrow. This method is to condense one's own spiritual power into a spiritual flame, and then introduce the spiritual flame into the Purple Palace to burn impurities with high temperature. However, this method is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, you may burn your Purple Palace spiritual platform, causing great damage to your cultivation or even going astray.

Wang Lu weighed the pros and cons in his mind again and again, and finally decided to take a risk. He took a deep breath, slowly gathered his mind, and began to condense the spiritual flame. I saw a ball of blue flame slowly rising between his hands. In the flame, spiritual power flickered and jumped, emitting a hot and pure breath.

Wang Lu carefully guided the spiritual flame towards the Purple Palace. Every time he advanced a little, he had to pay a lot of effort to control the temperature and intensity of the spiritual flame. When the spiritual flame finally touched the core impurity, a thrilling contest officially began.

The core impurity felt the threat of the spiritual flame, and instantly erupted with a powerful dark force, trying to extinguish the spiritual flame. Under Wang Lu's control, the spiritual flame, like a smart elf, kept jumping and burning around the core impurity, consuming its power bit by bit.

For a moment, in Wang Lu's purple palace, light and darkness flickered, and the spiritual power fluctuated violently. Wang Lu's face also became extremely pale, beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead, and his body trembled like leaves in the wind. But his eyes were always as firm as a rock, staring at this invisible battle, constantly adjusting the power and strategy of the spiritual flame.

In this fierce confrontation, time seemed to become extremely long. Every second that passed was like a century for Wang Lu. However, his persistence and hard work finally paid off.

As the spiritual flame continued to burn, the power of the core impurity was gradually weakened, and its size was slowly shrinking. Wang Lu's spiritual flame became more and more courageous, and the light became hotter and hotter. Finally, with a slight "click", the core impurity was completely refined by the spiritual flame, turning into wisps of black smoke that dissipated in the purple palace.

As the core impurity dissipated, Wang Lu felt a powerful force gushing out of the purple palace and instantly spread throughout his body. His cultivation level soared like a rocket, breaking through the late stage of the Dao-shaping process and striding towards the perfection of the Dao-shaping process.

At this time, the spiritual power in the Dao Spring seemed to have sensed Wang Lu's breakthrough and became more turbulent. Wang Lu took the opportunity to fully absorb the power of the Dao Spring to further consolidate his cultivation. His meridians became more resilient and broad under the nourishment of this powerful force, and could accommodate more spiritual power. His Purple Mansion Spiritual Platform also emitted a brilliant golden light under the infusion of spiritual power, like a dazzling star.

At the moment when his cultivation level reached the perfection of the Dao-shaping process, Wang Lu felt an unprecedented power and confidence. His spiritual sense instantly spread out, covering the entire asteroid. He could clearly sense the texture of every stone on the asteroid, the flow of every trace of spiritual power, and even some weak spiritual power fluctuations in the distant interstellar space.

Wang Lu slowly stood up and looked at the Dao Spring in front of him, his heart full of gratitude. This Dao Spring not only helped him expel impurities from his body, but also allowed him to successfully break through to the perfection of the Dao-shaping process, laying a more solid foundation for his path to immortality.

He knew that he had taken another solid step on the road of cultivating immortals. But he also understood that the road ahead was still full of unknowns and challenges. In this vast world of cultivating immortals, there are higher peaks waiting for him to climb, and more powerful enemies waiting for him to defeat.

However, Wang Lu was full of confidence and fighting spirit at this moment. He believed that as long as he held on to his firm belief, continued to explore and work hard, one day he would stand at the top of the world of cultivating immortals, overlooking all living beings and uncovering the deepest mysteries between heaven and earth.

He took a last look at the Dao Spring, then turned around and embarked on a new journey with a heart full of ambitions.

His figure gradually went away in the interstellar space, leaving only the Dao Spring still in the depths of the asteroid, emitting a faint light, as if telling the legendary story of Wang Lu.

Under the mysterious and vast starry sky outside the domain, Wang Lu's figure seemed lonely but resolute. He stood on a desolate asteroid, surrounded by endless darkness and silence, and only the spiritual light emanating from his body proved the existence of life and hope.

After discovering the magical Dao Spring and using its power to successfully achieve Dao Perfection, Wang Lu has not stopped exploring. He knows very well that in the path of cultivating immortals, the realm of cultivation is endless, and ahead, the Dao Cultivation Realm is like the bright stars hanging high in the sky, emitting an alluring light, attracting him to keep getting closer.

In order to reach the threshold of Yu Dao cultivation, Wang Lu began a long and arduous retreat. He found a cave with relatively rich spiritual power on the asteroid and set up layers of restrictions to prevent interference from the outside world. Deep in the cave, he sat cross-legged with his five hearts facing the sky, and entered a deep state of meditation.

Wang Lu first reviewed all the skills and techniques he had learned in the past, from the basic swordsmanship of the Lingjian School to the ancient secret books he accidentally found during his adventure. He knew that the Yu Dao realm was not just a simple accumulation of spiritual power, but also a deep understanding and perception of the way of cultivating immortals. So he began to deduce these skills over and over in his mind, trying to find inspiration for a breakthrough.

In the process of deduction, he found that although many skills were powerful at a low level, their limitations gradually emerged as the cultivation level increased. For example, some swordsmanship focused too much on the sharpness of the moves, but was slightly rough in the use and transformation of spiritual power; some spells had problems in the balance between consumption and power. Wang Lu realized that if he wanted to break through to the Yu Dao realm, he had to integrate and optimize these skills so that they could adapt to higher-level combat and cultivation needs.

So he began to try to integrate different skills. He combined a body technique known for its speed with a sword technique with strong offensive power, trying to create a new sword technique that could quickly approach the enemy and burst out with powerful lethality in an instant. In the process of fusion, he encountered many difficulties, such as the conflict between the spiritual power operation routes of the two skills and the lack of smooth connection between the moves. But Wang Lu relied on his extraordinary wisdom and tenacious perseverance to constantly adjust and experiment.

He replanned the spiritual power operation route and built a new spiritual power circulation system with his own purple mansion as the core. This system can flexibly allocate spiritual power to different skills and moves according to the needs of the battle. After countless failures and attempts, he finally succeeded in creating a unique sword technique of his own - "Star Shadow Streamer Sword".

Once this sword technique was performed, Wang Lu's figure streaked across the sky like a meteor, and the sword shadow flickered, as if the entire starry sky was trembling. Its power was far greater than any sword technique he had learned before, and the consumption of spiritual power was also effectively controlled.

However, Wang Lu understood that this was only the first step to touch the threshold of the Dao of Education. The Dao of Education realm is more important to the perception and control of the laws of heaven and earth. So he turned his attention to this outer space.

He began to feel the power of the stars, the fluctuations of time and space, and the mysterious laws hidden in the depths of darkness. His spiritual perception was like an invisible net, slowly spreading around, trying to capture every subtle fluctuation of the law.

By chance, Wang Lu noticed the distortion of time and space around a huge star. With a move in his heart, he resolutely decided to approach the star to explore the mystery in depth. The process of approaching a star is full of dangers, and the scorching heat and strong radiation constantly impact his body and spiritual shield. But Wang Lu did not retreat. He used the "Star Shadow Streamer Sword" he had just created, and shuttled through the dangerous area at a very fast speed.

When he finally came to the area where the time and space distortion was the strongest, he felt a powerful and ancient law force. This power seemed to be the master of this starry sky, controlling all life and death and reincarnation. Wang Lu carefully probed his spiritual sense into it, trying to communicate and merge with it.
