Chen Yuan's self-awareness had almost completely sunk into the power of collective thought. It wasn't just one person, but the combined thoughts of hundreds of thousands. And Chen Yuan was about to experience the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

Normally, this wouldn't be a problem. The backlash from the power of the masses wouldn't be too great. But unfortunately, this was his crucial moment for breakthrough, merging with his inner demon.

The resulting impact far exceeded the simple equation of one plus one equals two.

Although Chen Yuan had lived two lives and possessed a sturdy soul, the difference between him and hundreds of thousands of people was still too vast.

Ordinary commoners, Jianghu martial artists, Northern Liang soldiers, demonic cultivators – countless people's life trajectories were vastly different. In the beginning, Chen Yuan could still maintain clarity, aware that he was likely on the verge of a breakthrough.

But as more and more transformations flooded him, his self-awareness dimmed.

The resulting effect was the aggravation of the cracks in his Heavenly Core within his dantian. When Chen Yuan completely succumbed, the Heavenly Core would collapse, and his primordial spirit would be unable to withstand the scouring of Heaven and Earth spiritual energy, leading to its obliteration.

Failure to break through meant death!

The noble purple aura gathering from the distant east grew increasingly dense, stretching for nearly a thousand miles. The prefecture where Mount Wudang was located was only this large.

Old Celestial Master took a deep look at Chen Yuan, his eyes flashing as if he had already figured something out. Then, he turned his gaze towards Moro, saying, "Fellow Daoist Moro, this purple aura..."

Moro exhaled a long breath and said in a low voice:

"Chen Yuan's identity is indeed extraordinary. He is the direct descendant of the Xiang family of the former Chu, with deep bloodline."

Old Celestial Master had already guessed some things, so Moro no longer concealed the truth.

Besides, the higher Chen Yuan's potential, wouldn't it be in their best interest?

It was beneficial without any harm.

"As I thought."

Old Celestial Master nodded slightly.

What Moro said was somewhat different from his guess, but the general idea was the same. After all, purple aura wasn't something that just anyone could attract. In Taoism, purple was considered noble.

In the imperial court, purple was revered.

Only those with true great destiny could attract the descent of purple aura, whether it was a human emperor or a great sage. In short, not an ordinary person.

According to his knowledge, the founding ancestor of Mount Wudang, Grand Emperor Zhenwu, who had created a vast reputation in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, was born holy and protected by purple aura.

He founded the Wudang lineage of Taoism.

His legacy lasted for a thousand years.

And this Chen Yuan was clearly such a person. If you add the Xiang family bloodline in him, that would be even more extraordinary. Chu's Taizu 'Yu' was the Martial God in the world.

He was known as the second Human Martial Emperor.

How could his descendants be ordinary?

No wonder Moro valued him so much, staying by his side all the time, presumably to protect him and help him grow, so that Chen Yuan could help them in the future.

The reason why he said 'them' was also because Chen Yuan and Moro's willingness to take risks had made him feel a sense of kinship. Perhaps it was really as Moro said.

In some places, there was a group of people looking down on the world.

"Many people know that Chen Yuan has come to Mount Wudang. The matter of the purple aura is of great importance. I still need Fellow Daoist to help cover it up a bit." Moro put his hands together.

"Alright."

Old Celestial Master agreed. With a thought, the Daoist essence around him slowly merged into the air, enveloping the surroundings and concealing the purple aura with ordinary clouds.

Of course, such a big commotion couldn't be completely concealed.

At least experts at the level of Yang God True Monarch could still detect something.

However, within this prefecture, apart from the Wudang Immortal Sect, no other sect was established.

Naturally, only a few people could see through it.

These people included the Northern Liang King Wei Jinfeng and Song Yingqiao, the leader of the Wudang Seven. Wei Jinfeng was silently waiting for good news from the top of the mountain.

When the purple aura first gathered, he had already noticed it, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Purple aura coming from the east!

Could it be because of Chen Yuan?

It wasn't strange for him to think this way because the direction of the purple aura seemed to be the top of Mount Wudang, and besides Old Celestial Master, there was Chen Yuan on it.

There hadn't been such a change before, so it was natural for him to think that Chen Yuan's change had caused the purple aura to be attracted.

"Xiang family bloodline, purple aura coming from the east, could it be the will of Heaven?"

Wei Jinfeng muttered to himself.

Could the eight-hundred-year-old Chu Dynasty rise again in this man?

It wasn't strange for him to think this way. He had already learned that Chen Yuan was the son of Xiang Qianqiu, so he had been paying close attention all the time, and it was easy for him to think of this.

Song Yingqiao frowned, his eyes flashing, wondering what he was thinking.

In the void about twenty miles away from Mount Wudang, Xiang Qianqiu slowly walked out from it, his eyes gleaming with a faint light, able to see through the huge purple aura that was about to cover Mount Wudang.

There was some hesitation in his eyes.

With such a huge purple aura protecting him, I'm afraid he already chased after Taizu.

In this case, should he still carry out that plan?

But if he gave up, he would be unwilling. This was something he had been planning for decades. For this, he sat and watched his wife die, sat and watched his only son wander, and gave his own spirit pupils to Xiang Lingtian.

He gave up everything!

Just for the great cause of restoring Chu!

Xiang Qianqiu pondered, his black clothes fluttering in the wind.

Inside the Star Observation Tower in the capital.

Jingtai, who was practicing, frowned unconsciously, feeling an unusual feeling climbing into his heart, making him very uncomfortable and disgusted.

"Could it be that there's something wrong with my cultivation?"

Jingtai thought to himself.

He exhaled a long breath, slowly stopped his practice, and quickly retracted the blood-colored light around him. He suspended today's practice because he felt that if he continued to practice, he might even breed an inner demon.

"Someone come."

"Your Majesty."

A man wrapped in black robes knelt down.

"I..."

......

......

Qingyun Temple, the capital.

The old abbot, Heavenly Void Taoist, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, suddenly frowned and felt a strange irritability. Suddenly, his eyes moved, and he immediately took out a tortoise shell from his sleeve.

He poured out a few ordinary copper coins from inside.

But one of the unremarkable copper coins was cracked in half.

"This is..."

Heavenly Void Taoist held the broken copper coin in his hand and rubbed it gently, quickly finding the reason:

"It's that kid Chen Yuan..."

After Chen Yuan saw through his identity, he used the secret method of the Taixu Palace to observe the person's movements. It wasn't considered a peep into the secrets of heaven, but it could only give him some predictions about his situation.

He had originally put it aside casually without paying too much attention.

Now it suddenly shattered.

This could only prove one thing. A force had completely protected Chen Yuan, and even the Taixu Palace's secret method could no longer be used to predict anything, cutting off all contact.

"It seems that this kid is fine."

He had previously heard that Chen Yuan had reached his limit after the battle in Liangzhou City and fell into a near-death state, but he didn't pay too much attention to it.

The heavenly blessings on Chen Yuan's body were unheard of by him, even far exceeding the sword-wielding powerhouse who had caused a disturbance in the capital before. Such a person had deep blessings and could naturally turn danger into safety.

He just never thought that he would actually reach this point.

Even tens of thousands of miles away, he could break the probing treasure he had refined.

He is getting stronger and stronger!

Heavenly Void Taoist slowly shook his head, collected all the copper coins, and continued to meditate.

Mount Wudang peak.

Chen Yuan, on the other hand, was completely unaware of the outside world. He just felt that he had become a new person, and as he grew older, he suddenly awakened the memories of his previous life.

He realized that he was actually a reborn person.

Then...

He naturally couldn't continue to be a salted fish.

He could no longer be a freeloader who was waiting to die. After experiencing some things, he had a feud with the local government and brazenly killed the magistrate of that county.

After that, he directly joined the bandits.

He was known as Zhang Mazi by the government....

He gathered thousands of subordinates in the Shiwan Mountains, dominating one side.

But by the time he died of old age, his cultivation had only barely reached the Dan Realm. In the end, he could only scold himself for being the most useless time-traveler, and then he died with a smile.

When he woke up again, Chen Yuan had become a chef, using various secret technology sauces to earn the title of God of Cookery, and was even invited to the palace to be a royal chef.

Somehow, Chen Yuan got involved with the emperor's woman.

He put a few hats on the emperor's head. After being discovered, he was exterminated...

Waking up faster and faster, Chen Yuan transformed into more and more people. From ten thousand, he gradually reached hundreds of thousands. After awakening so many people, he had nearly one percent chance to awaken the identity of a time-traveler.

But unfortunately, his upper limit seemed to be the Transformation Yang Realm. No matter how many times he awakened, no matter how he improved his cultivation aptitude, he could never break through this shackle.

It seemed that the Heavenly Core pinnacle was his limit.

His consciousness was drowsy, and a wisp of noble purple light slowly lit up in Chen Yuan's dantian, illuminating the entire Heavenly Core like a purple pearl.

It also reflected a little person inside.

Finally, after experiencing countless times again, Chen Yuan awakened again and was reborn as a small constable of the same name in Ping'an County.

He also awakened his cheat.

Destiny Altar!

As long as he sacrificed destiny, he could obtain mysterious heavenly guidance.

And his first opportunity was the Vajra Glazed Body in the Sutra Depository of Ci'en Temple outside the city.

With the help of the cheat, Chen Yuan thrived in Ping'an County, quickly rising to the position of head constable, and also obtained his second opportunity, the Marrow Washing Spirit Pearl.

With it, Chen Yuan's aptitude was further improved.

The third opportunity was the evil Blood Fiend Blade.

The fourth opportunity was the Tai Xuan Sutra.

The eighth opportunity was the Profound Yang Divine Crystal.

The thirteenth opportunity was the Blood Bodhi.

The seventeenth opportunity was the Immortal Spirit Qi.

The nineteenth opportunity was Yin and Yang energy...

In this way, Chen Yuan relied on his own and the cheat's 'insignificant' efforts, rising step by step, from a small constable in Ping'an County, gradually growing into an Envoy of Inspection.

From an Envoy of Inspection to a Blue Envoy of Inspection, and being sealed as the Guardian of a Prefecture...

During this period, he met confidantes, met widows, met imperial concubines...

But for some reason, as he grew step by step, Chen Yuan felt more and more familiar, as if he had done these things before, which made him very confused.

Could he be reborn for the third time?

Gradually, Chen Yuan was assigned to Liangzhou as a Golden Envoy of Inspection. During his tenure, he encountered a large-scale invasion by the Northern Barbarians. In that war, he made a gamble and awakened the Great Emperor imprint in the Zhenwu Sword with his mere Dan Realm cultivation.

When he was about to close his eyes after killing the Northern Barbarian Royal Court Wanyan Divine General, he suddenly froze, and a strange feeling filled his entire heart.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I doing?

Why do I seem to have experienced these things before?

This is definitely not an illusion, it's real!

Definitely not on the battlefield of Liangzhou City, otherwise I would definitely not be so strange. Wait, what did Senior Moro say before?

Maybe I will take this opportunity to break through to Transformation Yang?

Transformation Yang, Transformation Yang, Primordial Spirit Transformation Yang.

Could it be that I am breaking through at this moment?

Is it just because of the inner demon's intrusion that I have such a strange feeling?

Realizing this, Chen Yuan quickly understood and recalled everything that had happened before, all of which he seemed to have completely experienced.

These are all in my memories, so why couldn't I think of them before.

Is the current me fake, or are the previous memories fake?

True and false, false and true.

True and false, false and true.

Chen Yuan kept thinking and understanding while falling in the void. Then, it seemed that his memories had reached a critical point, and he suddenly found that scenes of the past were flashing before his eyes like slides.

The lives he had experienced before were the same.

Gradually, gradually, Chen Yuan's self-awareness became stronger and stronger, and the primordial spirit light within his body also became brighter and brighter.

Outside, more and more heaven and earth spiritual energy gathered at the top of Mount Wudang.

Old Celestial Master and Moro looked at each other, a hint of relief flashing in their eyes.

Finally, Chen Yuan had survived!

The spiritual light in his dantian was like the sun, which could not be hidden from their eyes. It was good that Chen Yuan could completely pass this level by himself, since the breakthrough process should not be disturbed!

That was the backlash from the power of the masses and the inner demon. He was able to pass through it, and his mind must have been tempered to the limit. In the future, it would be difficult for inner demons to breed.

The changes at the top of Mount Wudang were also noticed by Wei Jinfeng. He held his breath, and a thought faintly arose in his heart.

Perhaps Chen Yuan can get good luck from misfortune and directly break through to the Transformation Yang Realm!

If that's the case, that would be a good thing.

Outside Wudang Mountain Gate, Xiang Qianqiu's eyes bloomed with light, as if he saw everything in the mountain, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Very good!

As expected of his bloodline!

As expected of him to use the secret method of the clan to lay the foundation for him, draw nearly a hundred Xiang family disciples' blood essence, refine the purest divine blood, and slowly transform it through himself.

It seemed that his thoughts were fulfilled. On Chen Yuan, who was sleeping peacefully in the void, the Xiang family divine blood in the depths of his blood suddenly began to stir restlessly, and ancient and mysterious patterns enveloped his whole body.

At a glance, it was very strange.

In the dantian, the cracks in the Heavenly Core that Chen Yuan had caused by nearly being lost were now recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. After it was completely restored.

Chen Yuan, who was in the depths of his consciousness, also completely broke free from the backlash of the inner demon and the power of the masses, successfully walking out of the abyss.

It was like flying into the sky from the bottom of the earth.

His consciousness was returning, and the divine patterns on his body were becoming brighter and brighter. In the void, the noble purple energy that had been moving had completely enveloped the entire Wudang Mountain.

In the Zhenwu Hall, the divine statue trembled slowly, and the Zhenwu Immortal Sword in its hand was also gradually making sword sounds.

It seemed that it was about to awaken in the next moment.

Seeing this, Old Celestial Master immediately suppressed this restlessness, causing the divine statue and the Zhenwu Sword to fall into silence again.

The purple light all over the sky shows an extremely magnificent picture, but unfortunately, there are very few people who can see this picture.

Even the disciples in Mount Wudang can't see it, they will only feel that the vitality is gathered at the top of Mount Wudang.

Between heaven and earth, the terrifying vitality vortex collapsed to a few miles away, overlapping with the purple air all over the sky, and a mysterious and noble aura enveloped the entire top of Mount Wudang.

"The purple energy stretches for thousands of miles, I'm afraid it has already caught up with that Chu Taizu, right?"

Old Celestial Master stroked his long beard, nodded slightly, looking at the movement in the void with a faint smile on his face.

"Chen Yuan is just Chen Yuan. It is not suitable to use him as a comparison. This monk believes that Chen Yuan's achievements may exceed that Chu Taizu who shook the world and overwhelmed the world."

Moro responded.

"Fellow Daoist Moro's evaluation is so high?" Old Celestial Master raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

At the same time, he felt a little unbelievable.

That person was a character who appeared once in a thousand years, sweeping across the troubled times, suppressing the world, his talent was unprecedented, and no one could compare with him. It was already not easy to see his back.

How could it be possible to surpass him?

Moro smiled without saying a word.

Of course, he would not say the real situation.

He had watched Chen Yuan walk step by step from the Solid Core Realm to today. His luck may not have been strong enough at the beginning, but if you carefully sensed it, you would find out.

Chen Yuan is actually more terrifying.

Because his luck and heavenly blessings are gradually increasing!

Moro has already verified this.

He was once extremely shocked.

After all, those who are born with great luck are extraordinary, but they are far worse than Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan may not be as good as that Chu Taizu now, but what about in a year, ten years, or a hundred years?

If Chen Yuan can continue to walk like this, his achievements will far exceed everyone's imagination, and it is not impossible to surpass that Chu Taizu.

Of course, Moro also knew the stakes, so he would not reveal anything.

That's why he asked Old Celestial Master to help cover up the movement of the purple energy, just because he didn't want Chen Yuan to attract too much attention now. His strength was good now.

But he will be stronger in the future, so it is best to lie dormant now.

Waiting for the time to truly shock the world.

Seeing that Moro just smiled and didn't want to say more, Old Celestial Master thought about it and didn't ask any more questions. Who could not have some secrets? Chen Yuan had them, Moro had them, and he himself had them.

He only needs to see that Chen Yuan really has the qualifications of the Sixth Realm in the future!

Such a peerless talent is worthy of attention.

The gentle breeze outside slowly brushed Chen Yuan's hair. His eyelids trembled slightly as his consciousness returned. Then, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a ray of light shot out.

Sitting up, Chen Yuan saw Moro and Old Celestial Master's figures at a glance, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Isn't he in front of Liangzhou City now?

Even if the war is over, he should be in Northern Liang Royal Mansion, why did he suddenly come to the top of Wudang Immortal Sect, and there are two immortals guarding it?

Before Chen Yuan could ask why, Moro sent a voice transmission, telling Chen Yuan everything that had happened since that day. He absorbed it quickly and quickly understood his situation.

Sure enough, he was breaking through!

And he had already passed the most difficult level. Next, he only needed to shatter his Core and release his Primordial Spirit, and refine his Primordial Spirit with the vitality of heaven and earth to truly enter the Transformation Yang Realm.

Become a Fifth Realm True Man!

"Thank you, seniors."

"You're welcome."

"Calm down and break through."

Old Celestial Master and Moro responded one by one.

Chen Yuan nodded. This was not the time for greetings. Immediately, he closed his eyes and began to concentrate on adjusting his state. His state was not good.

His own vitality was not strong, so it was not suitable to directly shatter the Core and transform into a spirit.

However, the Xiang family's divine blood in the depths of his bloodline was constantly providing him with vitality. After about an hour, Chen Yuan's state had been raised to perfection.

The breakthrough is now!

Chen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. The Heavenly Core in his dantian directly passed through his body and came in front of him. The Heavenly Core bloomed with a noble purple spiritual light.

Constantly trembling in the void, the primordial spirit little man inside was becoming more and more obvious.

The vitality between heaven and earth poured into the Heavenly Core frantically. In a short period of time, the volume of the Heavenly Core gradually increased, and it was now the size of a head, and the light became brighter and brighter.

Chen Yuan could see the huge purple light at the top of Mount Wudang. In his eyes, after seeing the Heavenly Core become larger, the huge purple light was like a silk thread connecting to it.

The Heavenly Core began to float higher and higher, and soon entered the purple energy, constantly floating and rotating, and constantly being infused with mysterious power by the purple energy.

Vitality, purple energy, all poured into the dantian.

After about eighty-one breaths, the changes in the Heavenly Core began.

A subtle crack began to appear from the inside out. At first, it was not noticeable, and it was felt that there was no change, but as time passed.

The crack became larger and larger.

One crack,

Three cracks,

Ten cracks...

When the Heavenly Core was completely covered with cracks, Chen Yuan had a realization and understood that the time to shatter the Core had come.

Bright divine light was released from the cracks in the Heavenly Core, like a tattered lantern.

Like a chick breaking out of its shell, a soft sound slowly rang out, reaching the ears of the three people at the top of Mount Wudang. A thumb-sized fragment of the Heavenly Core fell off.

Its fall announced the beginning. Soon, the second piece, the third piece, the fourth piece...

Countless tiny fragments had already fallen off for the most part, and most of the primordial spirit that Chen Yuan had condensed had already been revealed. It was as fragile as a newborn baby.

However, because it was a primordial spirit that was condensed in advance, it was not as weak as ordinary martial artists. Although it seemed fragile, it was extremely tough.

After about ten breaths, the Heavenly Core had completely shattered, revealing the true face of the primordial spirit, about three inches in size, completely the same as Chen Yuan's body.

Those Heavenly Core fragments did not melt into the world, but slowly floated around the primordial spirit.

Like a complex star field.

Chen Yuan's body and primordial spirit, who were sitting cross-legged in the void, were faintly connected. When he realized that it was almost time, the primordial spirit opened his eyes, opened his mouth and sucked, swallowing all the Heavenly Core fragments into his belly.

These things were not impurities, but real tonic, the foundation of Chen Yuan's practice all the time, and they were in harmony with the primordial spirit.

After absorbing the Heavenly Core fragments, Chen Yuan's primordial spirit's light was greatly enhanced, and it began to solidify at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This is the second growth!

The first one was naturally because Chen Yuan had condensed the primordial spirit in advance, which was already much stronger than ordinary primordial spirits.

The primordial spirit was sitting in the void, and his body was faintly in harmony with the world, like a god.

Wei Jinfeng at the waist of Mount Wudang also discovered Chen Yuan's primordial spirit, and a look of relief finally appeared on his face. The condensation of the primordial spirit was successful, and the rest was much simpler.

As long as it is tempered by the vitality of heaven and earth again, Chen Yuan will officially step into the Transformation Yang Realm.

Xiang Qianqiu thought so too. He slowly closed his eyes, without saying a word, appeared silently, and left silently, even the two immortals at the top of Mount Wudang did not find his existence.

His methods are so powerful and mysterious.

Chen Yuan's breakthrough was still continuing. When he sensed that the primordial spirit had completely refined those Heavenly Core fragments, he did not hesitate to prepare to start tempering the primordial spirit.

Ordinary primordial spirits may still need some time to stabilize, but he is not an ordinary primordial spirit. He had previously condensed in the Heavenly Core and had already undergone a period of nourishment.

Although the time was not long, it was enough.

With a thought, Chen Yuan's primordial spirit slowly got up, facing the violent vitality of heaven and earth, allowing countless vitality to wash over the primordial spirit. Those vitality was like thin blades, constantly cutting the primordial spirit.

But it will quickly recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Ordinary primordial spirits can only experience a quarter of an hour of vitality washing, but in order to make the primordial spirit stronger, Chen Yuan stubbornly held on for an hour.

During these times, the violent vitality of heaven and earth washed over it thousands of times, and his primordial spirit had become more and more tenacious, far exceeding the martial artists who had just broken through in the same realm.

Although his cultivation will not skyrocket, this is the foundation of the foundation.

During the process of vitality washing, the surrounding purple energy was also making up for Chen Yuan's primordial spirit, repairing it and strengthening his foundation.

Even from a distance, it would feel like a purple primordial spirit.

It's almost done.

Chen Yuan sensed the changes in the primordial spirit, and it was difficult for the vitality of heaven and earth to make it more tenacious, so he roared to the sky and dispersed the gathered vitality.

This full of breath voice also spread throughout the entire Mount Wudang.

All the disciples looked at the top of the mountain.

Zuo Cheng Zong showed a wry smile on his face and whispered to himself:

"Brother Chen...is stronger again."

The former martial artist in the same realm has now far surpassed him, which is really touching.

The vitality vortex collapsed, and the purple primordial spirit in the void turned into a spiritual light and suddenly entered Chen Yuan's spiritual platform. The Dan Realm is in the lower dantian, and the primordial spirit is naturally in the upper dantian of the spiritual platform.

The primordial spirit sat cross-legged in Chen Yuan's spiritual platform, slowly exhaling, every Zhoutian rotation, the primordial spirit would condense the vitality of heaven and earth to be a little stronger.

At the moment when the primordial spirit entered the body, Chen Yuan's flesh and blood suddenly began to stir, and a terrifying aura far exceeding the previous one quickly rose.

Primordial Spirit Transformation Yang!

From today onwards, he, Chen Yuan, can be considered to have stepped into a new realm, the Transformation Yang Real Person Realm!
