My Informative Cultivation Life

If one relies on external forces, such as devouring the Immortal King Dao Fruit refined by others, or receiving empowerment from a powerful being, and so on, and it's not a realization of the Dao achieved on one's own, then the Great Dao Fire will ignite from the heart, eventually burning the Dao Fruit to ashes, leading to death and the dissipation of the Dao, turning all to nothingness. Such power cannot even be stopped by a Dominator. This is one of those mysterious forces, also one of the secrets that Dominators seek, the so-called Ultimate Heavenly Dao. Yang Ji was enveloped in the Great Dao Fire, completely fearless. At this moment, he was only frowning, staring at the yet unfinished Destiny Dao Fruit. The Path of Destiny seemed vast and infinite, impossible to comprehend fully, unable to condense the Immortal King Dao Fruit, to merge with the Law of Dao Destiny. Yang Ji finally understood why those geniuses with astonishing talent always remained at the Quasi Immortal King Peak, unable to ascend to Immortality King through Destiny. For the Path of Destiny involves too much, nearly touching upon two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos. It encompasses everything. He felt it instinctively. If one truly wishes to understand Destiny completely, perhaps it is necessary to thoroughly comprehend the other two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos first. That is to say, becoming an Immortal King is just the beginning. Only after completely understanding the two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos is one qualified to pursue the true Ultimate Path. But at this moment, he was puzzled by one thing, if understanding two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos is just the beginning, then how far have the Dominators progressed? Yang Ji slightly frowned, slowly stood up, carrying the Great Dao Fire with him, left the Time Tower, and arrived before Jian Rong, respectfully saying, "Uncle Master, disciple has a question." "Oh? Let's hear it!" Jian Rong's heart stirred as he asked. "By fully understanding one Great Dao and condensing a Dao Fruit, one can merge with the Great Dao, immortal and invincible, hence becoming an Immortal King. On the foundation of a Great Dao, creating a supremely powerful top-tier Immortal Technique is to become a Giant Immortal King. On the foundation of a Great Dao, breaking free and walking one's own path, establishing one's own rules, is to become a Supreme Immortal King. Then what about a Dominator? What mysteries lie in the Sealing Technique?" Yang Ji looked up and asked. "You haven't had contact with a Dominator, so it's normal not to understand. Today, I'll tell you why Dominators are invincible, why they rule over everything!" Jian Rong spoke gravely. "Becoming a Dominator is extremely difficult, as tough as ascending to heaven. The long and endless road to becoming a Dominator requires endless ages to verify and comprehend." "Aside from Destiny, one must completely understand the remaining two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos, reaching the level of an Immortal King, to even be eligible to glimpse at becoming a Dominator." "At this point, based on the two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos, one must walk one's own path, creating one's own rules, which qualifies one as a Supreme Immortal King with the potential to be a Dominator." "The next step is to further deepen one's own path, refine one's own rules, turning one's rules into the 'Dao', a Dao that exists everywhere and is not just limited to a single Great Realm or a region, but a Great Dao that pervades everywhere." "Once this Dao is employed, if it can suppress the two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine foundational Great Daos, then you break free and become a Dominator." "Why is it said to 'break free,' rather than 'transcend'?" "Our Lord once said to me, perhaps only by comprehending Destiny can one truly be considered to transcend!" Jian Rong looked at Yang Ji and said solemnly, "For the average person, just fully understanding one Dao to become an Immortal King is already immensely difficult. To become a Dominator, you must comprehend two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos." "An average person taking a few or even dozens of Great Daos as a foundation to walk their path, establishing their own rules, achieving Supreme Immortal King is already a lifetime's struggle. To become a Dominator, one must base it on two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Great Daos, walking their path, creating their rules." "Finally, they must elevate it into Dao, overwhelming the three thousand foundational Great Daos, how rough is that road?" "Do you understand now?" "So it is!" Yang Ji nodded, "For those with no limit to their talent, it would take countless epochs to become a Dominator. For those with limited talent, they may never achieve it in their lifetime." "No wonder the Dominator's Dao can seal off Immortal Kings, making it difficult for them to escape." "Indeed, the Dominator's Dao, aside from Destiny, can suppress all Daos." "Yes!" Jian Rong exclaimed, "In the past, if one had the aptitude, there was a chance to become a Dominator, but not anymore. As soon as you try to transform rules into Dao, into that omnipresent Dao that dominates the world, the Dominator will sense it and interfere." "At best, you'll be severely injured and forced to return to the Great Dao for healing. At worst, you'll be sealed away forever, without any hope of seeing the light of day again." "The Dominator of the Celestial Court, as well as many others who have not taken a stance, do not quite wish to see a new Dominator emerge, they all want to maintain the status quo." "As for the reasons behind this, I am not too clear, and His Lordship has never mentioned it." "If you aspire to become a Dominator, then the path you must walk is incredibly long." "Thank you for the information, Uncle-Master, I understand now!" Yang Ji came to realize that within the same realm, whether one is an Immortal King, a Giant Immortal King, or a Supreme Immortal King, the differences in strength were as vast as the heavens and the earth. No wonder the Rusty Wooden Box looked down upon Qingyang Immortal King. Indeed, Qingyang Immortal King was among the weakest of the Immortal Kings. Having condensed only a single Immortal King Dao Fruit, he possessed neither an Immortal King Artifact nor top-tier Immortal Techniques. He could only display his might below Immortal Kings; within the same realm, he was simply unremarkable. Having left Jian Rong's presence and exited the palace, the Great Dao Fire on Yang Ji's body had completely extinguished, and he had officially become an Immortal King. Excitement swelled in Yang Ji's heart, and he couldn't resist starting to feel the wondrous aspects of the Immortal King realm. With the opening of his palm, the Great Dao manifested easily at hand, allowing him to borrow the infinite Power of the Great Dao and suppress a Quasi Immortal King as easily as crushing an ant. With a flicker of thought, he could merge with the Great Dao, which was omnipresent. In the next instant, Yang Ji appeared in the Taichu World of the Lower Realm. This miraculous ability, this speed, was millions, ten million, hundred million, thousand million times faster than the so-called instant movements, Zhou Tian Nuoyi, or space condensation. He was nearly a god, able, with a single thought, to follow the omnipresent Great Dao to reach any location. Experiencing the divine might of an Immortal King for the first time, Yang Ji's heart couldn't help but be shaken. He realized he had underestimated Immortal Kings in the past. No wonder they say to not utter an Immortal King's true name, as they may appear at any moment. Now an Immortal King himself, Yang Ji fully understood the meaning of this phrase. Those who call upon my true name will gain eternity on the path of reincarnation, receiving a strand of Dao essence, and be born with an Immortal Body. The Immortal King's strength was not just in this, being in harmony with the Dao, they were nigh invincible. As long as they did not offend the Dominators, there was no one in the world who could stop them from wandering freely; at worst, they could recover from their injuries within the Great Dao. Yang Ji's thoughts raced through his head as he visited various vast worlds, and in the span of a few moments, he set foot on two thousand nine hundred ninety-nine great realms outside of the Taichu World, which he had never visited before. His divine consciousness ascended to the heavens and returned to the Immortal Realm. In a matter of moments, he traversed the hundred thousand large states of the Celestial Court, appreciating its prosperity and magnificence. The freedom and elegance of this experience instantly gave Yang Ji a sense of transcendence. Immortal Kings truly belonged to a different level of life. They were in a league of their own, not comparable to any Quasi Immortal King, the difference was far too great. Yang Ji continued his divine journey across the heavens, appearing in regions beyond the Celestial Court and witnessing various dangerous natural disasters and many creatures he had never seen before. After wandering for two hours, he finally refocused his thoughts and returned to the Sword Realm. "Congratulations, Yang Ji, for becoming an Immortal King. From now on, the sky is the limit, and you are free to roam the world," the Rusty Wooden Box said with a smile. "Now that I have perfected the top-tier Immortal Technique, the Seal of Life and Death, and hold the Immortal King Artifact, the Bronze Divine Blade, I could be considered a Giant Immortal King, right?" Yang Ji said with a smile. "Definitely a Giant Immortal King, but you can still do better. Your Immortal King's Great Realm is not yet formed, your personal top-tier Immortal Technique has not been created, and your own Immortal King Artifact has not been forged. If you complete these three tasks, your strength will soar to an incredible level right here and now. Ordinary Giant Immortal Kings would probably burst under a single blow from you, sent to recover within the Great Dao," the Rusty Wooden Box explained cheerfully. "I actually already have an idea for my personal top-tier Immortal Technique. I will integrate all the understood Dao Principles into one, creating a 'Great Dao Fist'. With every new principle I comprehend, I will integrate it once more, allowing the ultimate Great Dao Fist to bloom with the mysteries of two thousand nine hundred ninety-nine Great Daos, achieving the strongest form," Yang Ji said with a slight smile. "As for the Immortal King Artifact, I haven't yet decided what to forge." (Thank you to Candy for the gift, love you)
