Walk your own path

Chapter 453: Walking His Own Path

“I died again…”

Lin Fan’s expression was bitter. His blood and bones flew back into his body, his Physical Body reconstructed and recovered. He opened his eyes, looking at the broken Soul Nurturing Wood.

This was his last substitute talisman. If he died again in the metal monument, he would truly perish.

He couldn't help but sigh; this was Lin Fan’s toughest battle. He had used every method and powerful Heavenly Art, but still failed.

In terms of Realm, the opponent was higher than him; in terms of physique, the opponent was similar; in terms of Divine Ability, the opponent had his own unparalleled Art.

Under such circumstances, no matter how it was measured, it was not a battle of the same level; there was no fairness to speak of.

“I refuse to accept this! I don’t believe I can’t defeat you!”

“Life and Death Precious Art, manifest!”

Lin Fan roared, unwilling to give up. His chest glowed as he used his own Art. Countless symbols appeared, distorting heaven and earth.

In an instant, everything in the world seemed to wither, the Void Realm blurred, and only Chaos Qi permeated.

This was Lin Fan’s strongest Divine Ability. Not only could it control the rise and fall of all things and strip others of their life, but it could also assimilate secret arts. It was undeniably powerful.

To this day, once this Art was unleashed, it was unrivaled, serving as Lin Fan’s ultimate killing move!

However, it did not achieve the desired effect because a vacuum zone appeared there, and large areas of runic light dimmed.

“What? You also have magic immunity?!”

Lin Fan was shocked. He hadn't expected the opponent to use such a method to neutralize his invincible Divine Ability.

Next, his other self continued to fight him, becoming even more terrifying.

Moreover, he displayed some extraordinary methods that Lin Fan had never seen before, putting immense pressure on him.

“Kill!”

Lin Fan roared, also using magic immunity, fighting a battle of attrition against the opponent. His fists cracked, blood flew, and the pain was excruciating.

The arduous battle, the endless bloodbath, continued until he was completely疯魔, on the verge of being shattered.

“This is a Battle of Transcendence!”

Suddenly, a cold voice, an emotionless Divine Thought, echoed in this space. This was the imprint left by the Sacred Emperor, and also the rule.

Lin Fan was stunned. What did this mean?

Did it mean he had to surpass all peers and win against a stronger opponent to pass the final test?

However, his various precious arts were boiling, all his great arts were fully unleashed, and he had used the Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Art countless times, but it was still not enough.

“The Battle of Transcendence is not a Battle of Despair. Only by surpassing your past can you cross this threshold and truly stand above all!”

Lin Fan heard the voice again, his heart stirred. He muttered, “Surpassing the past, huh?”

However, this enormous gap was not something that could be crossed by a single Realm, unless he immediately ascended to the next Realm; otherwise, it was unshakeable.

“Boom!”

At this moment, Lin Fan went mad, no longer caring about so much. True Phoenix Art, Liu Shen Art… all arts were unleashed simultaneously, dazzling and brilliant.

By the end of the fight, there were sword lights soaring into the sky, Kunpeng cries, Qilin stepping on the heavens, etc., all radiating unparalleled brilliance.

If this were seen by others in the outside world, they would undoubtedly be shocked to see so many peerless precious arts appearing on the same person!

At this Realm and age, to possess such Battle Intent, how many in this era could rival him? It was rare even in the previous epoch.

However, in this place, he could die at any moment. Lin Fan had deeply understood this not long ago, feeling utterly helpless.

“Indeed, the greatest enemy in the world is not an outsider, but oneself!” Lin Fan sighed, a string of blood spat out, as he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Now, he understood many things in his heart and was no longer confused.

“Isn’t it just transcendence? I will definitely succeed!” Lin Fan shouted.

At this moment, his entire essence, Qi, and spirit boiled. He imprinted various precious arts onto his Unique Cave Heaven, and then continuously compressed them.

Finally, the glowing Cave Heaven shrunk to an extreme point, like a small sun, completely retracted into his body, into his abdomen.

There, like a Divine disk, it emitted world-shaking light, illuminating the surrounding darkness.

“Hmm?”

Lin Fan was momentarily in a trance, somewhat lost in thought. All the Arts flowed through his mind, as if he had gained a complete understanding.

“No, I’m not Shi Hao, and I’m not opening a Sea of Reincarnation!” Lin Fan cleared his mind. Fundamentally, his path was different.

Whether it was the Primordial Spirit secret treasury that appeared when he opened his Cave Heaven, or the alternative method of becoming a God when he ignited his Divine Fire, everything was unique.

“What I want is not imitation, but a path unique to myself!”

Amidst his confusion, hovering between life and death, Lin Fan saw a path, a ray of hope, beginning to burn, releasing Immortal mist.

That was the Three Immortal Qi, pure and flawless, which he also compressed into his Cave Heaven, within his Dantian in his abdomen.

At that time, it was no longer a Sea of Reincarnation, but a Qi Sea, with surging Immortal light, extremely dazzling!

In an instant, Lin Fan seemed to gain endless power. His aura rapidly surged, vaguely surpassing the Heavenly God Realm, incredibly frightening.

“Boom!”

However, this power was also extremely unstable. The suppressed light suddenly burst open, forming a Reincarnation disk.

But at this moment, the power of its explosion was so immense that even the Sacred Emperor’s imprint couldn't withstand it. It was struck and sent flying, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood.

“This is my path, my Dao, the beginning of creating my own Art!”

Lin Fan had a revelation in his heart and understanding in his spirit. He gained a completely new insight, and his eyes became even more brilliant.

And, along with that, his other self collapsed, covered in cracks, severely wounded.

At this moment, Lin Fan stood still, not paying attention to the imprint, but rather recalling the recent explosion and his Epiphany.

This was a wonderful feeling that made him quite absent-minded, immersed in that profound Realm, looking inward at the Reincarnation disk in his abdomen.

Because such an opportunity was extremely rare. Between life and death, he squeezed out his deepest potential, and then instantly achieved Epiphany.

It was very possible that a living being would only have one such opportunity in a lifetime, so he could not waste the moment.

At this juncture, Lin Fan roamed in a brand new world, his Primordial Spirit wandering in the Void Realm, comprehending infinite changes, pondering and deliberating there.

At the same time, he was compressing his Unique Cave Heaven, returning it to his abdomen, where it transformed into a Divine disk in his Dantian, intertwining the Profound Truths of life and death.

With a hum, that place became extremely dazzling, surrounded by Immortal mist, as if opening up an Immortal Realm, incomparably sacred.

“Does this count as the Dantian becoming one?” Lin Fan murmured to himself.

He had once opened his Physical Body Cave Heaven and Primordial Spirit Cave Heaven, corresponding to the middle Dantian and upper Dantian respectively. Later, all the Cave Heavens merged into one, leaving only the lower Dantian.

“Dong!”

Not far away, his other self, who had fallen to the ground, stood up again. His wounds healed, glowing with Divine light, and he charged again.

His gaze was cold, devoid of emotion, only pure Battle Intent, aiming to eliminate all challengers.

However, now was a critical period. If he were disturbed, Lin Fan’s Epiphany could be interrupted.

Yet, the imprint was cold and emotionless; it would only adhere to the established rules, walking straight towards him, filled with Killing Intent.

“Boom!”

He made his move, unleashing a peerless Divine Ability, transforming into three balls of light, fully attacking Lin Fan with immeasurable Divine Might.

Lin Fan sensed it and retaliated by instinct.

Especially in his abdomen, where millions of rays of light shone, as if creating heaven and earth, the sound of the Dao rumbled, and the sound of scriptures being chanted could be heard.
