Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1213 - 857: Primordial Spirit Transformation, Integration Advancement_2

1%, 2%, 5%, 10%...

The fusion of the Primordial Spirit with the physical body was, without a shadow of a doubt, an incredibly protracted affair, consuming an entire year.

Upon the fusion finally reaching its completion at 100%, the cultivator's body underwent a seismic transformation.

It was as though both his soul and his corporeal form experienced a profound qualitative enhancement.

At that specific juncture, his physique appeared to meld seamlessly with the void itself, while myriad enigmatic runes materialized across its surface, reminiscent of celestial Dao Patterns bestowed by the heavens and earth.

"Success has been achieved, yet the tribulation has also descended."

A sliver of frigid light flickered within Jiang Fan’s gaze.

He possessed prior knowledge of the intricacies involved in advancing to the Integration stage, knowledge gleaned from the Primordial Talisman Pen.

While the merging of the Primordial Spirit and one's Physique was an undertaking of extreme criticality, the pivotal second stage, it also represented the most perilous moment.

This was because the very instant the fusion successfully concluded, the formidable Celestial Demon Tribulation would be invariably triggered.

At this juncture, the immense energetic surges emanating from the Primordial Spirit would sunder the void, beckoning a deluge of Outer Celestial Demons to assault, and simultaneously agitating the latent Heart Demons within.

Should the cultivator prove incapable of withstanding the Celestial Demon Tribulation, their Primordial Spirit faced complete annihilation, devoured by these relentless Outer Celestial Demons.

Dong!!

In that precise instant, the surrounding expanse of the void fractured as if it were brittle glass, unveiling countless fissures, each stretching for thousands of meters.

More alarmingly, an unending tide of demonic aura began to surge forth from the abyssal depths of these faint void cracks.

They possessed a darkness akin to the deepest abyss, capable of consuming every vestige of light.

It was a pervasiveness of darkness that left nothing untouched.

In the subsequent second, the heads of Outer Celestial Demons began to emerge from the fractured gaps in the void.

They moved as if they had detected the presence of a thousand-year-old Spirit Medicine, each exhibiting signs of frenzied desperation.

"What an exquisite aroma; truly too fragrant. Whose soul is emitting such a delectable scent?!"

"Haha, a human! It's a human Cultivator ascending to the Integration stage; no wonder there's such a colossal fluctuation of the Primordial Spirit."

"However, when compared to ordinary Void Refining Cultivators, this human's Primordial Spirit is extraordinarily potent."

"Indeed, such a formidable surge of Primordial Spirit, even for an Integration Cultivator, is merely comparable."

"But this only serves to underscore how utterly delectable this human Cultivator's Primordial Spirit must be."

"Should we manage to devour this human's Primordial Spirit, what a miraculous tonic it would prove for us."

"It would undoubtedly propel our advancement significantly, perhaps even allowing us to transcend to the ranks of Demon Gods."

The gathered Outer Celestial Demons were all in a state of extreme elation.

Like voracious sharks drawn by the scent of blood, they all propelled themselves toward this location.

Precisely the number of Outer Celestial Demons that Jiang Fan's Primordial Spirit had attracted at this moment remained an unknown quantity.

Perhaps it numbered ten thousand Outer Celestial Demons, or possibly even a hundred thousand.

Yet, the sheer multitude of these Outer Celestial Demons formed a dense accretion blanketing the sky above the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall.

The heavens, spanning tens of thousands of kilometers, were stained black, as if the very sky and sun had been obscured.

Not a solitary ray of sunlight was capable of penetrating this oppressive darkness.

Had this event transpired in the outside world, such an aberrant phenomenon would undoubtedly have drawn the attention of surrounding Cultivators.

At that time, it might have attracted numerous Integration Cultivators and even those at the Mahayana stage.

However, ensconced within the protective confines of the Ten Thousand Treasures Spiritual Ruins, outside Cultivators remained entirely oblivious.

At this critical moment, Jiang Fan's array of Magical Treasures also bore witness to this apocalyptic spectacle, each one quivering with trepidation.

"Impossible, could this truly be the Celestial Demon Tribulation for advancing to the Integration Stage?"

"It is simply too terrifying; each of these Outer Celestial Demons possesses the cultivation of the Integration Stage."

"A solitary Outer Celestial Demon of this caliber could potentially devour countless souls."

"It is enough to make one's very hair stand on end."

The Ten Thousand Transformations Immortal Cauldron, perceiving the overwhelming demonic cataclysm, felt its ethereal heart pounding and its form trembling.

Should these Outer Celestial Demons manage to break through, it harbored significant doubt as to whether its master could withstand such an onslaught.

After all, it had never before encountered a demonic disaster of such terrifying magnitude, a calamity utterly beyond comprehension.

"A standard Celestial Demon Tribulation would scarcely possess such terrifying might."

"This must be intrinsically linked to the master's extraordinary Primordial Spirit."

"The master's Primordial Spirit is excessively potent, rendering it an irresistible lure for these Outer Celestial Demons."

"Consequently, such an immense congregation of Celestial Demons from the outer void has been drawn, precipitating this horrifying Celestial Demon Tribulation."

The Demon-Vibrating Bell articulated its thoughts with a profoundly serious tone, also recognizing the exceptionally troublesome nature of this impending calamity.

Confronted by such an overwhelming multitude of Outer Celestial Demons, it too felt uncertain about its capacity to endure.

It seemed as though the pervasive Demonic Qi possessed the ability to corrode all things.

"There appears to be no solution; this is the tribulation that befalls peerless geniuses upon their advancement."

"The greater the talent and cultivation of a genius, the more terrifying the tribulation when advancing to the Integration stage."

"However, the rewards are equally immense once it is overcome."

"It can drastically reduce the cultivation time required for the Integration Stage."

"For many cultivators at the Integration Stage, this presents a truly dream-like opportunity."

The Primordial Talisman Pen spoke with a deep tone.

Earlier, it had somewhat foreseen this possibility.

This was due to Jiang Fan's exceptionally profound cultivation and foundation, surpassing that of ordinary Void Refining Cultivators.

It is precisely because of this that the ensuing tribulation was unprecedented and beyond common comprehension.

Yet, even so, it maintained great confidence in Jiang Fan's ability to overcome the trial, as Jiang Fan possessed a multitude of trump cards.

These Outer Celestial Demons, though intimidating, were not necessarily insurmountable.

"So many Outer Celestial Demons have manifested? This is truly excellent."

"Just imagine how much the strength of my Primordial Spirit can be amplified if I can devour these demons."

"These demons are indeed invaluable supplements."

At this moment, Jiang Fan felt no fear whatsoever; instead, his excitement grew even further.

Hong~~

Instantly, he activated an Immortal Artifact he possessed—the Seven-Colored Lotus Lamp.

This remarkable Immortal Artifact possessed the ability to condense Seven-Colored Immortal Fire, a premier force against these very Outer Celestial Demons.

In the following second, the Seven-Colored Lotus Lamp, imbued with a massive amount of Primordial Magical Power, illuminated brilliantly, revealing innumerable mystical Immortal Patterns that coalesced into strands of Seven-Colored Immortal Fire.

Under Jiang Fan's precise control, these Seven-Colored Immortal Fires surged forth, targeting the surrounding Outer Celestial Demons. They transformed into razor-sharp blades, effortlessly piercing the forms of the demonic entities.

Dong!

The next second saw the Outer Celestial Demons engulfed by the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire erupt into flames, igniting as if soaked in gasoline. Their bodies became the fuel, creating a spectacle of fire filling the sky.

Hundreds, even thousands, of Outer Celestial Demons became blazing torches, feeding the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire.

"How is this conceivable? This is the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire originating from the Immortal Realm. How could a mere human Cultivator come to wield it?"

"This human has obtained the Seven-Colored Lotus Lamp, and now we find ourselves at an impasse."

"Flee, quickly retreat! This individual is shielded by the Seven-Colored Lotus Lamp. Should we draw near, we will be immolated instantly; this defense is simply impenetrable for any demon."

"Damn it all, I suspected this human's Primordial Spirit would not be so easily consumed."

The countenances of the Outer Celestial Demons turned exceedingly grim. They had never anticipated that this human Cultivator would possess an Immortal Artifact for protection, one that precisely countered their demonic abilities.

The surviving Outer Celestial Demons felt a profound sense of relief, grateful for their slightly delayed approach. Had they been closer, they might have been reduced to cinders, leaving no trace behind.

Now, they were already contemplating a strategic retreat.

"Attempting to escape? Every last one of you shall be converted into my resources."

A sharp glint appeared in Jiang Fan's eyes as he produced another one of his formidable Magical Treasures—the Great Sun Buddha Mirror.

Although this Magical Treasure had not been fully restored, with his current cultivation level, he could harness a significant portion of its power. It nurtured the True Sun Fire, which proved exceptionally effective against Outer Celestial Demons.

The combined might of the Seven-Colored Immortal Fire and the True Sun Fire was akin to setting ablaze the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.

Hong~~

In an instant, an area spanning tens of thousands of miles became engulfed by the combined powers emanating from the Seven-Colored Lotus Lamp and the Great Sun Buddha Mirror.

The terrifying Anomalous Fires of Heaven and Earth swept across this domain, forming a sky ablaze with conflagration, incinerating all in their path.

Not a single Outer Celestial Demon emerging from the rifts in the void could escape their demise.

Their bodies were tainted by these Anomalous Fires of Heaven and Earth.

Even a mere touch of these flames would not extinguish unless their entire being was completely consumed, such was the potency of the fire.

This is the terrifying nature of Anomalous Fires of Heaven and Earth, a power far beyond the capabilities of ordinary flames.
