Evolution of the inner world?

Chapter 455: Evolving an Inner World?

The ten thousand paths tree was thick with branches and lush leaves, and ten thousand fruits of varying colors hung down, emitting infinite Qi and shining brilliantly.

Lin Fan sat beneath the tree, wanting to seize the trajectory he had sensed earlier, not wishing to miss out on an enlightenment that would impact his entire life.

He recalled and once again attempted to compress his Dantian to a singularity, causing his abdominal Dantian to erupt. Immortal Qi misted, and Life Qi and Death Qi circulated.

“Let them coexist, transforming into the origin point of everything…”

Lin Fan murmured as if in a dream, repeatedly attempting to compress and release, while Immortal Qi entangled and enveloped the Golden Core.

This was like a seed being nourished by rainwater, then gradually beginning to swell, with terrifying power surging and filling his internal world.

However, he was severely injured again. The Immortal Qi and the Life Qi and Death Qi within the singularity were imbalanced, nearly tearing his abdomen apart.

The originally sacred and auspicious Immortal Qi boiled at this moment, transforming into countless knife-like blades that cut his Physical Body, causing immense pain.

Fortunately, his body was tough enough, and he possessed the Supreme Bone, which had strong healing properties, otherwise, he would have been in danger!

“Life and death must be balanced, and the inner world even more so. Everything in existence emphasizes opposition and coexistence…” Lin Fan muttered to himself.

The next moment, he no longer suppressed the Immortal Qi, forcing it into the singularity. Instead, he released the Life Qi and Death Qi from within, harmonizing them externally.

He continuously experimented. The Golden Core burst open, Life Qi and Death Qi permeated, intertwining with the power of the Immortal Qi.

Lin Fan remained calm, not saying a word, sitting there observing the changes in his internal world. He was also very serious, adjusting and controlling as needed.

At this moment, he forgot the passage of time, completely immersed, experiencing the continuous flow of time as if he had arrived beyond all worlds.

There, no one disturbed him, everything was incomparably peaceful, and even if tens of millions of years passed, it held no meaning.

Because Lin Fan was very serious, without joy or sorrow, devoid of emotional fluctuations, his spirit roamed his internal world, as if petrified.

Finally, it grew quiet. The Life Qi and Death Qi circulated, forming a Dao diagram, with the Immortal Qi becoming the dividing line in the middle.

“No, the Dao is formless, how can it be manifested by a tangible diagram?”

Lin Fan murmured softly. Between heaven and earth, the Dao is invisible; the remaining diagrammatic traces are merely abstract descriptions of the Dao.

Suddenly, he awakened, dispersing this diagram. Chaos Qi surged, and a grand sound resonated, as if creation itself was unfolding there.

Life Qi ascended, transforming into the sky; Death Qi descended, transforming into the earth; and Immortal Qi transformed into a vast sea, gurgling and surging, filling the space between heaven and earth.

“Boom!”

And as he formed the “Inner World” with a single thought, the outside world rumbled, thunder rolled, descending from the boundless Void Realm, all striking Lin Fan.

Lin Fan awoke. That technique, that Dao, had taken rudimentary form. He had touched upon the true path and was incredibly excited.

He had a feeling that if he perfected it in the future, it would surely shine brightly, becoming an entirely new system.

Of course, this was just the beginning, having explored one part of the human body. He still needed to perfect and explore, unlocking more Physical Body Treasure Troves.

However, he no longer had time to ponder. The sudden lightning above his head forced him to withdraw from his enlightenment.

“What the heck, is this going to strike me dead?” Lin Fan was astonished; the electric light was boundless and terrifying beyond anything he had ever seen.

This was a sudden Heavenly Tribulation, not intentionally provoked by humans. The lightning was endless, like a vast ocean.

Even though he was inside the metal monument, which blocked much of it, Lin Fan still felt terrified, his hairs stood on end as the lightning pierced through to his location.

One must know, this was just the beginning, yet it was already so violent. Who knew how powerful it would become later, potentially turning him into ash.

“Is it because I want to create a unique technique that I’ve attracted this forbidden Heavenly Tribulation?” Lin Fan became vigilant.

The heavens sent down a great Lightning Tribulation, obstructing his Dao. This indicated that the path he was on was extraordinary, making him even more resolute, his eyes shining brightly.

“Haha… My Dao!” Lin Fan laughed loudly.

Despite the life-and-death crisis, he was struck until his skin was torn and flesh was ripped, bleeding profusely, but he still couldn't stop his joy.

Immediately, he began to resist the Heavenly Tribulation, activating secret arts to reconstruct his Physical Body. Yet, amidst the intertwining lightning, his entire skeleton was shattered again.

“Pfft!”

Lin Fan coughed up mouthfuls of blood. One bolt of lightning after another pierced through his body, making him transparent from front to back. Even activating the Undying Scripture couldn't block it.

This was truly terrifying. The power of the Lightning Tribulation had already far surpassed the Heavenly God Realm. Even an ordinary sect master would not survive; they would be struck dead.

Undoubtedly, he encountered a great crisis. The sound of his bones fracturing echoed within his body, splattering large amounts of blood.

If not for his tenacious vitality and his cultivation of healing secret arts like the Liu Shen Art and True Phoenix Precious Technique, he would have long been in tatters, unrecognizable.

Powerful lightning, violent thunder, each time it streaked across the sky, it was blindingly bright, carrying an eerie radiance as it poured down.

It was like a great river crashing down, or a sun exploding, vibrant and colorful, surpassing anything before, unimaginable!

It could be said that this kind of Heavenly Tribulation offered no hope; it aimed to directly extinguish living beings, something a Heavenly God could never withstand.

It was as if someone had provoked the heavens, causing them to rage and unleash terrifying celestial phenomena that tore apart all things.

“Ah…”

Lin Fan screamed. Every inch of his body burst open, blood flowed incessantly, and many places showed transparent blood holes. He was almost disintegrated.

At this moment, even he, with his tough nerves, felt his vision blacken from the intense pain, almost fainting.

“No, I must change, or I’ll die!” Lin Fan said urgently, being struck until he was almost withered.

He used Lei Di’s secret art, guiding the lightning, using his own technique to dissolve the electric arcs… employing every means possible.

Unfortunately, it was still not ideal. This was a Lightning Tribulation from heaven and earth, with supreme power; how could it be easily dissolved?

“Crack!”

The thunder rumbled incessantly, and the sizzling sounds continued. Electric arcs coursed through Lin Fan’s body, scorching his flesh and bones.

Death Qi increased, and Life Qi sharply decreased. If he didn’t make a change soon, he could lose his life at any moment.

Just then, Lin Fan looked inward at his abdomen, at the “Small World” he had just evolved, and immediately made a decision.

Then, he absorbed all the lightning on his body into his abdomen.

This action was shocking and insane, enough to scare anyone to death, because if he made one mistake, his Physical Body would explode.

One must know, that was a Lightning Tribulation, and its Heavenly might was immeasurable. Guiding it like this was tantamount to a suicidal act.

However, Lin Fan truly had no other choice. If he didn't take this risk, he would truly die under the lightning first.

“Boom!”

The lightning was incessant. His entire body convulsed, and many bones were shattered, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, guiding the lightning into his body, surging into his abdomen.

In an instant, a brilliant light erupted, and a deafening sound shook the heavens and earth. Bolts of lightning darted wildly within the “Small World,” and the Immortal Sea churned.

Soon, astonishing changes occurred within. Life Qi permeated, forming water droplets similar to Thunder Tribulation Liquid, incredibly peculiar.

“It succeeded?” Lin Fan’s eyes were bright.

However, the danger remained. This was only the preliminary beginning. If there was a single mistake, the situation would become even more severe.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, the Inner World lost its balance, unable to withstand the power of the external Lightning Tribulation, unable to be absorbed and utilized, and the world collapsed.

At the same time, Lin Fan’s abdomen cracked, nearly severing his body in two and self-destructing.
