The blooming of the karmic fire red lotus lasts only a very brief moment, which is of course extremely tormenting for Gao Xuan.
If the immortal transformation of the Immortal Golden Cicada had not been triggered, he would have really been finished this time.
However, after being tempered by the karmic fire, Gao Xuan's soul also received an essential improvement.
The six-winged cicada, the mechanical war cicada, and the immortal golden cicada were originally fused into one. Gao Xuan also felt that there was no problem.
However, when facing the tempering of karma fire, only the six-winged celestial cicada and Gao Xuan's soul were still closely connected.
There is always a layer of separation between the mechanical war cicada and the immortal golden cicada.
When the immortal transformation of the Immortal Golden Cicada was stimulated, Gao Xuan's soul transformed and was reborn. The soul possessed an unparalleled core of power. The Immortal Golden Cicada and the Mechanical War Cicada were then completely integrated with the Six-Winged Sky Cicada and truly integrated with Gao Xuan's soul.
The three kinds of magic items were completely integrated, and their power was not as simple as one plus one. Instead, it completely raised the Six-Winged Sky Cicada to a higher level.
The improvement of his natal treasure brought about a fundamental change in Gao Xuan's power level.
Not to mention that this time his soul was tempered, which also allowed Gao Xuan to see some of the mysteries of the soul.
After testing so many worlds, Gao Xuan understood a fundamental truth: for an intelligent life, the soul is the foundation. The body is just clothes.
The innate spirit is extremely special and mysterious.
In the interstellar age, technology is advanced, and the strong can cross the galaxy and destroy planets with a wave of their hands. However, the understanding of the soul is still very crude and remains at a very low level.
Gao Xuan made a horizontal comparison. The Book of Genesis did not mention the worlds of the Nine-Turn Divine Cicada Trial. Even though the energy level was not high, there was no difference between the soul level and the interstellar era.
In this world of cultivating immortals, the cultivators' understanding of the soul far exceeds that of the interstellar age.
From Gao Xuan's current point of view, a Spirit Severing Warrior is roughly equivalent to a Gold Warrior. He may be slightly inferior in destructive power, but he is better than a Gold Warrior in terms of spirit and soul.
As for the Mahayana above the level of spiritual power and the immortals above the Mahayana, Gao Xuan couldn't speculate out of thin air.
It can only be said that after this karmic fire tempering, Gao Xuan's soul has been essentially improved, and he has also realized his true nature. It also allowed him to truly experience the mystery of the soul.
In other words, it opens the door to cultivating the soul.
The improvement of the soul level is actually far less important than opening up a path for soul cultivation.
With a path, there will be unlimited possibilities for improvement in the future. The temporary improvement in spiritual power is not that important.
The complete fusion of the six-winged cicada, the mechanical war cicada, and the immortal golden cicada was also a pleasant surprise. But for Gao Xuan, it was not very important.
In comparison, the golden lotus seeds left behind after the Karma Fire Red Lotus blooms are actually even less important.
No matter how good the golden lotus seeds are, he can't take them away.
Gao Xuan thought so, but his hands were not idle. He stretched out his hand and picked up three golden lotus seeds.
The round golden lotus seeds look like gold beads made of pure gold.
"Your thing almost burned me to death, you are so cool!"
Gao Xuan muttered something. He wanted to taste the golden lotus seeds, but when he thought of what had just happened, he didn't dare to do anything rash.
Don't underestimate this world. A flower can be fatal. He wouldn't believe it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
Maybe this thing is really the essence of immortal energy, so weird.
Gao Xuan asked, "Do you have any questions? Please tell me."
The six-winged cicada did not react at all.
Gao Xuan really wanted to let Shui Qingbo out and let her taste it first. But after all, Shui Lingling was a beautiful woman, and she was also a nice person, so it would be a bit too much for her to do this.
Gao Xuan fiddled with the golden lotus seeds, but could not see anything unusual. Apart from the golden glow, it looked pretty good.
Apart from this, there were no other visions.
If the tiger demon was here, he could try using the tiger demon. Gao Xuan was just thinking about it. If the golden lotus seeds allowed the tiger demon to ascend to immortality, he would be in trouble.
This kind of thing can only be tried by him himself.
Gao Xuan thought a lot, and in fact, it only took him a moment to change his mind, and he casually ate a golden lotus seed.
To be honest, he wasn't even sure if it was meant to be eaten.
Gao Xuan also checked the secret books of the Five Elements Sect, but did not find any relevant records.
I don't know where Jin Wufeng and Zhou Huang got these secrets from. But what they know is not reliable.
Gao Xuan was sure that with the strength of the karmic fire just now, not to mention Jin Wufeng, even if Li Buyi, Wang Haichan and their Nascent Souls were there, they would all be killed. There was absolutely no chance of luck.
But he had three golden lotus seeds, so he had to give it a try.
Gao Xuan had survived the karma fire just now, and he didn’t believe that these golden lotus seeds were more evil than the karma fire.
The golden lotus seeds rolled into his stomach, and a warm air slowly spread out. Gao Xuan was a little moved by the gentle change.
Just now, the karmic fire had a hint of gentleness from the golden lotus seeds, so he would not have to use the immortal golden cicada to transform and be reborn.
As the heat slowly spreads throughout the body, it will stabilize again when it reaches the center of the eyebrows.
Gao Xuan felt his eyebrows tremble slightly, and a golden lotus blossomed between his eyebrows. The golden light emitted by the lotus washed his whole body from the inside out.
In the past few days, Gao Xuan has been practicing the White Tiger Perfect Golden Body, using the Golden Liquid of Creation to temper his body, and in fact he has also absorbed a lot of fire poison and foul air.
The golden lotus cleansed his whole body from the inside out, and the fire poison, foul air, impurities, and micro-worms lurking in Gao Xuan's body were all cleared away.
Gao Xuan's body was cleansed by the golden light, and his whole body became as transparent as crystal. Gao Xuan's sensitivity to the vital energy increased by an unknown amount.
He was also a little surprised. The golden lotus seeds were so useful. It was fine if it could just cleanse the body, but it could actually change the bones and make the body infinitely close to the innate Taoist body.
In the world of cultivators, the bodies of cultivators are actually divided into different levels.
For ordinary practitioners, it is needless to say that the difference in talent is simply a matter of distinction.
People like Gao Xuan, Shui Qingbo, and Yuan Bao have extremely high talents in cultivation and can be called geniuses.
But in the entire world of cultivators, their talent is nothing.
It is said that the disciples of the great sects of cultivation must remember that among the true disciples, they all build their foundation at the age of seven and achieve golden elixir at the age of ten. If you don’t achieve Yuanying before the age of thirty, you can’t even call yourself a genius…
When one reaches this level, one will be divided into the ten major spiritual bodies of cultivation and the ten major innate Tao bodies.
The so-called innate Taoist body does not need to be cultivated at all. Just eat, drink and have fun normally, and your cultivation will naturally increase.
For them, achieving the golden elixir, Nascent Soul and the spirit transformation is just a matter of time and there is no difficulty at all.
Gao Xuan had only heard of these rumors, but he did not believe them completely.
Rumors always get more and more exaggerated. There are even more rumors in the world of cultivators.
But at this moment, Gao Xuan suddenly understood what the innate Tao body was.
The golden lotus seeds completely changed the internal state of his body. This was not to say that it strengthened him, but that it turned the sand into gold... something like that.
The golden lotus did not simply change Gao Xuan's physical bones, it also integrated into Gao Xuan's soul and showed Gao Xuan information about several kinds of innate Taoist bodies.
Only then did Gao Xuan understand that the golden lotus seeds could not allow a person to ascend to heaven directly, but could change a person's bones and innate soul.
Moreover, he can actively choose the direction of evolution.
The Golden Lotus gave Gao Xuan three choices: the innate five-element Dao body, the innate Wuji Dao body, and the innate Hunyuan Dao body...
These names are actually transformed from innate runes, and it all depends on how you interpret them.
If Gao Xuan was a person from this world, he would definitely choose the innate five elements body. With this body, it would be easy to cultivate the innate five elements. It would only be a matter of time before he could reversely deduce the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Sword.
However, Gao Xuan is only a passer-by in this world. Even if he refines the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Sword, how powerful will it be when he returns to the interstellar world
Although Yuan Qi and Yuan Li are similar, the nature of their power is ultimately different.
Gao Xuan doesn't want to rely on his luck.
Besides, the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Sword is only the Five Elements Sect's peerless secret technique. It's not invincible.
The innate Hunyuan Tao body follows the path of becoming a god by being one inside and out.
Although Gao Xuan didn't know what to do next, he had to leave anyway, and he couldn't take this body with him, otherwise this innate Hunyuan Taoist body would be wasted.
Only the innate Wuji Tao body, where most of the Tao body's power is placed in the soul, is called Wuji.
The so-called Wuji means there is no limit or boundary, but there is also no fixed path.
How to go and how far you can go depends on yourself.
Of course Gao Xuan would choose the innate Wuji Taoist body, as only this Taoist body could be beneficial to him.
After being selected, the blooming golden lotus formed a mysterious golden rune, which was deeply imprinted on Gao Xuan's soul.
After Gao Xuan's powerful and domineering soul absorbed the golden light, it completely destroyed the rune.
His spiritual power is now strong and pure. He can absorb the spiritual energy of the golden lotus but will not let the golden lotus parasitize in his soul.
After this change, Gao Xuan didn't know whether his innate infinite Dao body had been refined or not. But his soul undoubtedly benefited greatly, and he could clearly feel that his soul power had increased by 30% to 50%.
Because it involves the soul level, Gao Xuan also finds it difficult to make an accurate estimate.
With his soul and spirit powerful to this extent, and with the remaining power of the golden lotus as nourishment, the essence of the five elements flowed through Gao Xuan's mind, giving rise to enlightenment.
The Thick Earth Sutra, the Sky Water Sutra, the Vermillion Bird Fire Sutra, the Azure Dragon Sutra, the White Emperor's Divine Weapon Record, several fundamental secret methods were combined and finally merged into a brilliant golden light and merged into the golden elixir.
Countless fine runes appeared on the surface of the golden elixir in Gao Xuan's sea of consciousness. These golden runes flowed and shone. Suddenly, the golden elixir shattered, and a three-foot-tall golden body emerged.
This body is extremely similar to Gao Xuan's current body, but it is covered in golden light and can attract huge vital energy with every movement.
Yuanying is the watershed for cultivators. Only when one reaches this stage can one be called a True Lord, establish a school, and be called a master or ancestor.
Gao Xuan was not surprised. After being tempered by the fire of karma, his soul was so powerful.
Even without the golden lotus seeds, achieving Nascent Soul would be a matter of a snap of the fingers.
Only with the help of the Golden Lotus, it was easier to achieve the Nascent Soul stage.
The golden Nascent Soul in Gao Xuan's sea of consciousness waved his hand, and the Jiuyue Xuanming robe, Suzaku ring, Qingmu Yufeng hairpin, and Taiyi Tiangang wheel all appeared in his sea of consciousness.
The golden Yuanying pointed at the five spiritual weapons, and in the golden light, the thirty-six restrictions of the five spiritual weapons were all released.
However, the power of the five spiritual weapons only goes so far. Even after unlocking the thirty-six restrictions, no secrets were found.
Gao Xuan was not disappointed. At his level, he had no rivals at the same level.
But he changed his mind and decided to be cautious. This world is quite strange, who knows what other people are hiding.
It would be no fun if Li Buyi took out a magical weapon.
The most urgent task is to get back the Qianyuan Divine Spear and sweep across the eight directions.
Gao Xuan calculated with his fingers and found that there was still more than a day left before the duel, which was completely in time.
With a flick of his sleeves, he crossed the void and came directly to Shui Qingbo's room.
With another flick of her sleeves, Shui Qingbo appeared on the wooden bed.
Shui Qingbo looked at the familiar room environment, she was a little stunned. Hidden in the world of her sleeves, she didn't know what happened.
Gao Xuan said solemnly: "Are you ready? I want to teach you how to practice."
Shui Qingbo was a little confused. What was the point of practicing at this time? But she still nodded: "I'm ready."
Gao Xuan shook his head: "You have too many clothes..."
Shui Qingbo suddenly realized it, her face turned red, her eyes dropped, but there was an indescribable tenderness in her shyness...
