Chapter 302 The “One” of the Great Dao, Three Gives Birth to All Things

Half a month later, Yue Chan, guided personally by Lin Fan, explored a path and decided to undergo Immortal blood baptism to Cultivate her second Immortal Qi.

In fact, this method was a conjecture Lin Fan had long entertained, and there were similar successful cases.

In some ancient texts, people had attempted to fuse Immortal blood or Immortal bones to Cultivate a single Immortal Qi.

Moreover, such a method was equivalent to fusing a Dao seed, like Ning Chuan, Little Six, years later, with his True Immortal hand bone.

Of course, the risks involved were certainly not small; one first needed to be able to withstand the power of Immortal blood, otherwise, before the Immortal Qi emerged, one would already have exploded.

Fortunately, Lin Fan had the bone cauldron from Stone Village in his possession; with its baptism, calamities could be dispelled, greatly increasing the chance of success.

“Next, it’s up to her…” Lin Fan stood guard outside, prepared for any unforeseen accidents.

However, ultimately, he wasn't entirely certain if Yue Chan could Cultivate her second Immortal Qi; he had only provided a direction.

After all, in the Dao of Cultivation, some things must be experienced by the individual; he couldn't do it for her, and his path was even less replicable.

“I should also begin the True One path, clarifying my goal, focusing on one path, one Dao,” Lin Fan murmured, stating his resolve.

In truth, on this path, regarding this point, he had always had a very clear goal: comprehending the Dao—life and death!

In the past, he had always believed that life was life and death was death, two opposing forces, like Taiyin and Taiyang, polar opposites.

Later, as he gained insights, he discovered that sometimes life could also be death, and death could also be life.

When all things reach their extreme, they begin to decline and move in another direction; the great Universe is no different.

This seemed like a Reincarnation, a cycle of life and death, with no true dividing line between them; instead, life embraced death, and death embraced life.

Thus, he comprehended the Concept of Tai Chi.

Life and death could both be the starting point and the end point, connected to form a “ring,” without beginning or end, without life or death.

This also made him realize that, besides life and death, there was also a process between any two points on the “ring,” such as the Dao of time, space, and so on.

Simply put, it was like a living being from birth to death, with its growth experience encompassed within.

Now, Lin Fan looked back and had a different realization: he saw life as life and death as death.

One could also say that life and death are the “One” of this Dao, from which One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, and Three gives birth to all things.

The processes on this “ring,” or any phenomenon, originally did not exist but evolved from life and death.

“Seeing mountains as mountains, seeing rivers as rivers; seeing mountains not as mountains, seeing rivers not as rivers; seeing mountains still as mountains, seeing rivers still as rivers.”

“It turns out that these three Realms were already comprehended by the Old Ancestor in my previous life and passed down; it’s just that I’ve only now understood them,” Lin Fan sighed.

He sat cross-legged outside the Immortal Cave, feeling a sudden enlightenment, having reached the third Realm, his eyes clear and radiant.

It was at this moment that he acted, runes intertwining, activating his innate divine art of Fusion, combined with the Concept he had comprehended.

Suddenly, the clear sky changed color, winds howled, dark clouds gathered, and with a crack, a bolt of lightning flashed, followed by rolling thunder.

“A thought gives birth to plants!” Lin Fan spoke, like the sound of the Great Dao, as if it had stirred some Law power.

The next moment, around him, one plant after another grew, some green, some golden, some purple, all in various forms.

Not only that, but one large tree after another emerged from the earth and quickly grew into towering ancient trees of many varieties.

However, these were not real plants but manifestations of life and death.

“A thought forms mountains!” Lin Fan spoke again.

Immediately, the surrounding world changed; towering mountains stood on the flat ground, not just one.

From a distance, there were even plants on the cliffs, vines swaying in the wind, and various flowers pushing through the rock crevices, lush and astonishing!

“A thought transforms into rivers and lakes!” Lin Fan uttered the heavenly sound.

As his words fell, Laws descended among the mountains, forming a lake and several large rivers, their waters crystal clear, with golden lotuses growing out, sparkling and radiant.

This scene was incredibly spectacular, making people feel unbelievable, because Lin Fan’s words immediately became Law, capable of evolving all things.

Subsequently, all the plants withered, the lake dried up, and the mountains became desolate, devoid of any life.

Soon, they flourished again, full of vitality, repeating this cycle, as if constantly experiencing life and death, just like the great Universe.

However, the creator and god of this world was Lin Fan, who opened up the heavens and earth, wielding the life and death of all things.

“A thought forms the vast sea!”

Finally, the plants and mountains disappeared, replaced by an boundless azure ocean, shimmering with light and surging with waves.

Rather than saying the plants and mountains disappeared, it was more accurate to say that due to the passage of time, the former land was submerged by the vast ocean.

“A thought transforms into a galaxy!”

Next, the sky changed, as if an extra layer of heaven appeared, with countless large stars shining, dense as rain, incredibly brilliant.

By this point, the world around Lin Fan became increasingly vast and perfect, with the circulation of four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

Most astonishingly, fragments of time were flying, space was distorting, divine flames were burning… all the myriad Dao appeared.

This defied imagination, unbelievable!

Likewise, this was formed by life and death, evolving from One, Three giving birth to all things, constructing a vibrant world.

Moreover, everything was formed by Lin Fan’s single thought, controlling everything; this comprehension, this method, was terrifying!

Having Cultivated to this step, his achievements in the Domain of life and death were extremely high, even beyond what a True God should exhibit.

At this moment, Lin Fan glowed, radiating an Immortal Qi, his entire being seemingly eternal and indestructible.

Especially his flesh and blood, transparent and radiant like jade, glistening, and his long hair, each strand crystalline, tinged with a golden hue, incredibly sacred.

This was because he was growing stronger, a scene of Breakthrough, his aura continuously surging and rising, quickly becoming sharp.

“True One Realm Late Stage, not far from Perfection!” Lin Fan’s eyes were deep, and he felt a slight excitement.

How long had it been? His Realm had improved again; this Cultivation speed was truly frightening, enough to make a group of people feel ashamed.

However, it was understandable; he had prepared too thoroughly, with deep foundations and enough activated potential, making it difficult not to become stronger quickly.

“But this is still a bit too fast; the sage wood for advancing to the next Realm isn’t ready yet; I’ll have to search for it after I go out.”

Lin Fan stood up, all anomalies vanished, and the surrounding world returned to clarity, still the Reincarnation Land.

Behind him was Yue Chan’s secluded Cultivation place, undisturbed, and only a little over a month had passed.

“To achieve the most perfect path, that step must certainly be taken, but where should I find sage wood?”

Lin Fan muttered; ever since he emerged, he had been breaking through extreme Realms, which was also the reason for his rapid progress and invincibility in the same Realm.

However, sage wood is extremely rare, a treasure that typically grows in Immortal ancient ruins with rich Spiritual Qi.

Ordinary people rarely see it, and it cannot be transplanted, and since the Reincarnation Land doesn’t have it, Lin Fan could only search elsewhere.

“I’ll go out and inquire to see if there’s any news of sage wood.” He glanced back at the Immortal Cave, leaving behind a spiritual clone, and his main body rushed into the distance.
