Transformation

Divine Dao

After stepping into divine transformation realm, I returned to base layer of cultivation tower and spend time in studying the book about great expanse divine dao. The destiny object was a suppression object but I don't really need it to suppress Heavenly venerates. I tossed it to chaos sea, which instantly devoured it.

The divine spark plate formed earlier was based on yin yang array that can transform everything in this world. That formed naturally, due to triggering some resonance with the dao of purple yin with physique upgrade and sudden comprehension of purple yin dao.

It was originally not at all possible to recreate it, until recently.

My Soul power has grown, internal world has grown considerably. Comprehension has improved along with this I fully analyzed the divine dao of great expanse and it allows me to support the stabilization of yin yang array.

Divine dao of great expanse was wonderful. It relies on the art of calculation and probabilities. A divine dao is a flawless concept. Special Energies that made up all realities within Chaos, those energies are the foundation of all realities they shape the rules of certain aspects. This one is a capable of generalizing entire primal chaos.

Enlightenment

The moment I completely understood it, just like before another array began to resurface and formed the divine spark. But this time. It didn't directly condense Great Expanse Divine spark, instead first the purple yin divine spark formed. Then the internal potential of great expanse divine dao began to condense as a second layer from my understanding making it more powerful.

My sense of self has been detached that I didn't feel trouble for seeing the extreme feminity based divine dao formed first. There is a solution to everything. It just have to wait.

Due to LoHP I comprehended the full understanding of saint which means the total of 7 layers of Great expanse divine dao. But on the outside I could only cultivate first three levels of it, since the first formed divine spark is the one basis which governs the true god realm. The purple divine dao barely scratched the first layer.

Practicing the great expanse divine dao is increasing my soul strength very much even reaching it to realm lord level for a moment, but the soul quality remained the same. Now I can indeed enter Fake God realm whenever I need and fall back. 

Why?

The condensation of divine spark is based on accumulation of faith. Divine spark plate allows secondary beings to rapidly condense faith. The Yin Yang array in my internal world momentarily transforms Chaos Qi to faith energy since faith energy, potential are lower essence formed from chaos itself.

This momentarily divine spark condensation is not normally possible with true essence. And if it fails the world will be destroyed by spark, as true essence is lower power than divine spark. And it doesn't really need plate to stabilize in a holy domain.

So as long as I keep the array going, I will be at this fake god realm but my fighting power is still governed by internal potential created by burning away the chaos Qi to create faith energy.

 If I were in God Domain, it is better to channel chaos Qi instead, as the fighting power would be same as actual realm.

But in Universe, the condensation of divine spark can mean you can ignore all rules of the universe for as long as I am able to keep it. Well I don't know the way to transform any god martial coin to spirit crow, and the forbidden regions only recently started to gather faith, other wise I could actually step into true God realm.

Conceptual Abilities

May be it is due to achieving that new power level, new information about my abilities start to emerge in my memory. As the one who sent me told me, I will have new conceptual abilities as my power grows. Now I have a new sense of control over how I go unnoticed. Be it just perception or just outright prevent them from access.

It is unrelated to the protection granted, from people who could sense me like an anomaly, interfere beyond my capabilities and outright delete the world or timeline I am in.

May be my past self who granted me wish also predicted it would be annoying at some point for one to be way too over-guarded. It is one thing to be protected against people who holds absolute power but hidden from unfamiliar people just three realms above mine?

On a subspace level scale, I could actually set the minimum realm requirement or the scope of domain where this concept of absolute shielding is enforced. This ability added a passive defense from creation energy surrounding myself which will trigger shielding close to body whenever I am met with people or external situations that have the ability to put me in mortal danger.

Ps: It was the omniscient author's decision to progress plot

Infinity Ruler

Well as I was pondering all these, the momentum of both the divine dao in the spark was absorbed by infinity ruler for the first time. Which means even without divine spark I could use their divine abilities with chaos Qi.

The infinity ruler lies bonded with my soul as soon as I attached my divine sense. The one in my internal world is currently a projection of it. After I step into True God realm, I can merge my spirit and body to internal world, which would mean it will ultimately end up in world inside. It was more like a spark plate in actuality.

Seeing the chance to test it out, my improved comprehension began to slowly decipher beyond it. The techniques I practiced involve more of truth divine dao, due to its flawless nature it's internal potential start to gather.

The justice divine dao daoyun is similar, it was obtained from the information of soaring snake sword and Chi You's legacy information.

Similarly others like Five elements divine dao, Devouring divine dao, strength divine dao, Annihilation Divine Dao followed forming their first layer internal potential and merged with Divine spark. I fully understood how to balance the energy of each when I actually condense the real one.

Their momentum also began to get recorded in the Infinity ruler. Usually the usage would be other way around. So the seven layered divine spark was formed.

Any way after testing it out I carefully released it. Even though it won't do anything to my internal world as a whole, but the energy fully released is akin to sinking some continents down. And down with it millions will die.

Return to true form

I spent more or less same time in both gender if comparing my both lives together. I understood what it means to be both. Now that characteristics of purple yin extreme body was transformed as internal potential in infinity ruler and internal world is not a purple pole realm, completely detaching the rule level effect that fixed my transformation for so long, I finally did the old transformation technique.

My form began to shift returning back to the one I left for so long. My hair and eye shade of color remains same, my height increased, bones reformed, body mass grown rapidly from lean body back to that perfect old feel. Secondary features began to reappear. Well the transformation also slightly activated some physique adaptation again making me ease for this kind of transformations. Producing a Qi mirror I saw my face again. Well my face closely mirrors Luo Yan's still but the changes are happening slowly recovering my previous facial shape.

I moved around, the weight on the chest is gone and my old buddy reemerged. The body still can be identified as a male physique of purple yin. But it is slowly shedding its incompatibilities. I perceived my soul, it still is the same.

Soul begins from the perception of self. I accepted the nature for so long. It didn't have adaptive abilities but when I become comfortable with self it will slowly change. But it regained the ability to transform to previous spirit forms I had in TDG.

It was lost when the physique start to affect the perception of self. Now it came back. I tried merging, suddenly my soul force is consumed trying to shift my body, but it seems it is not possible fully anymore. Soul can't transform state of body in this world laws anymore as my cultivation has very much increased bringing essence, qi and soul similar unlike before. Fate stars and soul core still exist as before.

The Purple yin divine dao is possible when one fully accepts the femininity aspect of existence. It is what constitutes the yin aspect of every third world being. Similarly there is a polar opposite divine dao, Crimson yang divine dao, and it is even less studied. Most of the people with this physique would major in a fire elemental or any other destructive faced divine dao instead because they are mostly studied. 

Since the purple yin divine dao is still incomplete in even the leader sub-saint Han Jiuoyi of God Domain and it was formed as my first divine spark condensation, I must rely own my comprehension to complete it. Chaos evolved to yin and yang which makes up existence of 3000 divine dao. When I try to channel the internal potential of purple yin again, it was there as usual but felt a little out of touch with it. If one wishes to be perfect, one must accept the perfect self, yin and yang are extremes of just one form.

Severing Emotions

The infinity ruler was originally recovered from Sage mountain in God's domain. It was Chi You's treasure. The flaws were not identifiable with current knowledge but I know it only has 3000 spots. The last three hidden ones are not there.

Anyway, my comprehension about the severing emotions divine dao from just the sword intent left in the previous Yijian Venerable's tablet deepened. The concept of the Severing Emotions Divine Dao is considered as a Forbidden Dao among the citizens of God Domain as it is related to the Primordial Beginning Sword Technique which was used to forge the God Domain. 

Well the exact sword technique and it's knowledge was obtained when I copied that soaring snake sword from Four god countries. I am already well versed in it. Add to that I know of how Luo Zheng cultivated it based on the story. I don't want evil Qi to help me practice divine Go sword or to go through the emotion severing pill to do that. One, my soul is not at near true god realm equivalent in strength to consume it or do I have emperor engraved soul seal either and lastly it is shielded as per my wish.

So better way to do that is with creation energy, but I don't know what to do if afterwards my self wishes to remain like that. Creation energy can translate any energy to another form, be it in any form. Can I consider emotions as characteristic energy of soul apart from its strength? After all in this universe there is also a divine dao based on usage of emotional energy. 

I tried it with emotion 'wrath' after conveying my intent to a small trace of creation energy I channeled. I felt the difference and tried to channel back and I felt normal. So it works. 

Immediately I began preparation to harness its potential to infinity ruler. I momentarily entered false god state, condensing the sparks, this time only selecting the techniques of emotion severing divine dao. So a divine spark of purple Qi and internal potential of emotion severing divine dao began to activate. On the outside: 

Soul is the source of seven emotions and six desires. One deriving from other. If I sever it only sense of self remains. I did it one after the another. Primordial beginning sword intent begin to form and after trying it with divine go sword, previous one began to condense further to my exact shape. Form of sword spirit condensed to mature sword intent. 

Only my consciousness is present I don't have any desire, but just to attack and forget about it. Within the bubble of creation energy shield where I activated it, a sword strike capable of destroying 1000 small realms began to form and released. Even seeing the result I felt no joy. But the act of releasing that technique condensed my understanding of previous flawless sword techniques to emotion severing dao potential. And rapidly advanced it after trying its various forms. Internal potential began to form and finally it was recorded in the infinity ruler. 

After releasing from God state and freeing emotions, I activated the emotion severing dao again through momentum recorded. This time, instead of me using creation energy actual severing emotion sword began to manifest in soul. I re entered the state easily. I tried and found that I can indeed form selfless state easily. It was very different from Anatta mental state. 

Well, as I was briefly joyed after releasing emotions for figuring out a new Dao path with such a shortcut, the token of the tower was activated. 

Looking at myself once more, I transformed back and the extreme yin physique also reactivated once again. This is the familiar form memorized by most. I could avoid myself if I were having some hunting order based on my appearance if I were to kill some True God at the time of crisis of this world.

Luo Zheng

I reluctantly ended my session and stepped into the courtyard, where I found Af'u surrounded by an unusual gathering. For the first time since my arrival, I witnessed ~ Luo Zheng in better shape stood there alongside Xun, his sword spirit, while Af'u conversed with the refiner divine son puppet and another girl named Mu Ming Xue. The entire group was clustered around a shimmering projection that revealed the chaos unfolding beyond our sanctuary.

We weren't in the eastern domain anymore, but suspended in the vast spacefield where multiple Heavenly Venerates had joined forces in a coordinated assault. Given my current power level, I could indeed face such opponents without the usual restrictions that bound me if I were to enter False God Realm.

Luo Zheng's gaze made me slightly uncomfortable. " ... " he murmured. "Af'u, who is this?"

"Master, this is Ms. Tao," Af'u replied with his characteristic formality. "Just like you, this person currently has access to the Library Pavilion. She also holds the token for the cultivation tower."

I smiled and gave a nod. "That's right. Hello there, Luo Zheng. I remember seeing you take the test for courtyard access many years ago."

His brow furrowed slightly. "I've been to this place several times, but I've never encountered you before."

"I've been mainly cultivating here for the last seven months," I explained, noting his curious expression. "Before that, I was staying in a different world for practise, so our paths never crossed. We can discuss that later, but Af'u ~ why are all these Venerates trying to attack this place?"

Af'u gestured toward Luo Zheng, his expression was slightly joking. "Well, he found a new crown of destiny, and these people wanted it. Now they also covet the immortal manor. I was just informing you via token since it's not every day these things happen."

Indeed, such events were rare. However, I had no intention of taking any action ~ I had no desire to do so. For the next hour, I witnessed the magnificent spectacle of Heavenly Venerates being completely outmaneuvered by what appeared to be a divine sea realm cultivator.

Later, when Jiang Yu'er ~ the one in charge of the heavenly way from the God Domain Jiang Family ~ requested that he recite a story, I found myself intrigued. I listened as he began recounting tales of Demons and Gods," stories from the very world I had come from.

Meanwhile, I found myself in conversation with Xun, the sword spirit. "The person asking this must be an idiot," Xun commented dryly, referring to Jiang Yu'er's request.

I shook my head. "She's not. The bellowing badge he's using originally belonged to her and was left in this universe somewhere, which somehow ended up in his hands. She's just checking whether it can be accessed again. She hasn't been able to, as this has been going on for few hours."

Xun's ethereal form stunned. "You know who she is?"

"Yes. Controller of Heavenly Dao. One from the upper realm. I can't tell you anymore."

Xun proved to be decent company around me. Luo Zheng was busy with his story telling and our conversation also reached his ears. Especially learning that I had reached the Divine Transformation realm. Which Xun had had asked directly, which I appreciated ~ his dragons couldn't sense my arrival beforehand to gauge my strength or presence.

There was something about the resemblance to his sister that he mentioned, and I realized it was indeed similar, though I was more mature and my hair carried more of a white shade than lavender. Perhaps due to bloodline or our similar higher being nature, he didn't display the usual arrogance.

Later, at the refiner puppet's request, Luo Zheng attempted the true extinction road and obtained access to the Refinery. During this time, I was able to observe the old Qi soul of Xian An, his elder brother under his master. While his memory contained a few interesting techniques to copy, nothing particularly valuable caught my attention.

Several months passed while he trained techniques in the Library Pavilion. One day, I approached him with Af'u at my side.

" Hey Af'u, can I ask him to get permission to use refinery room for myself in exchange for entering cultivation tower?" I asked him.

" By the rules, Token Holders can determine if they wanted to interchange or allow access. But he would only be allowed permission in Tower as long as you are here or unless he also passes the maze test."

I turned to Luo Zheng with a slight smile. "You heard him. Are you willing? I just want to make something with your puppet or refine something myself."

He considered for a moment, then nodded. "Well, I think it would be no problem."

"Hmm, one more thing," I said, my expression little more serious. "If you're going to cultivate in the tower, be careful not to advance to the Divine Extremity realm. This is very important.

There will be a dream battlefield ~ an event that's about to happen in a couple of years or more ~ where talents like you from all over the universe will appear. Maybe your friends will be there too. You'll get exciting rewards like the chance to become a Daozi and enter higher worlds, and it's actually related to the battle of fate in this universe. The people from Celestial clan asked you because of that. Even the realm lords posted outside will leave on there own, if you show good ranking in there."

I didn't explain much, but it was enough.

He went to the second floor and adjusted the time compression from hundred to ten as per my suggestion and began to cultivate. A year later he was at late stage divine sea realm, and began to practice the techniques in the Library.

I went to the refinery pavillion. There was some star jade iron and previous meteorite sand, God domain materials I found during these years. Away from the refining puppet who was refining artifacts, in another corner, I started forging and refining material. My LoHP comprehension allowed me to overachieve even though it was my first refining experience.

Etching advanced god runes that was above the heavenly way in karma and severance laws of annihilation divine dao, needed temporarily switching to False God realm. The sword can conform to any divine dao potential but sword is meant to cut enemies, so it will increase it's effectiveness with it.

The handle was made of immeasurable wood iron which made it light as a feather in my hands and weight of a star in others. The slightly curved sword, can sever space easily just by waving in the universe. If I dropped it, I would need to go to the bottom layer of universe to access it back.

It was precious even in God domain, so the material was copied using creation energy to make stuff.

Job done.

Well after shaking of the refining puppet who accidentally seen the process and got stuck as if he understood the meaning of life, I went to sidewall where I once came across the True meaning Sanskrit, again.

This time, I could see the meaning of Sanskrit as I read, but when it reaches more than 900 words it felt difficult. For a half a year I was there and at the end of the time, I went to 3300 words.

Slowly I began to make sense that it is not a technique that need to be flawlessly analyzed, not a product of cultivation but a natural existence as myself. So when it happened, the Sanskrit effortlessly flow out of my mouth.

But it seems having a true God soul was a requirement to reach other shore. I tried to incorporate technique into any attack patterns I had and it seems to be working well.
