Just then, purple-black Qi began to appear around Ye Lin's Dantian.
His originally pure white Nascent Soul, radiating divinity, slowly became tainted by the purple-black Qi.
Half of the Nascent Soul's body gradually became tainted.
"Is this the Heavenly Dao's test?"
Seeing this purple-black Qi, Ye Lin understood.
He had read about this situation in ancient texts; almost every Cultivator who Breakthroughs to the Nascent Soul Stage experiences it.
This purple-black Qi is a tribulation, a test from the Heavenly Dao.
At this moment, all he needed to do was guard his original intention and concentrate.
Everything else would be handled by the Nascent Soul.
Most people would pass this Heavenly Dao test.
If one's Foundation was insufficient, their Nascent Soul would completely turn purple-black, resulting in a complete loss of Cultivation at best, or Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering at worst.
Unless your fate was high enough.
The higher one's fate, the more the Heavenly Dao favors them, so this test could be passed with eyes closed.
Slowly, after about three or four hours, the purple-black Qi that had tainted half of the Nascent Soul began to recede.
Above the Nascent Soul, a brilliant light shone, and a miniature version of Ye Lin quietly floated in the center of Ye Lin's Dantian.
The Nascent Soul was filled with divinity.
Ye Lin's accumulated Foundation was too profound; even the Nascent Soul he condensed was filled with divinity.
On the Nascent Soul's forehead, a fiery red Phoenix imprint was etched, looking incredibly beautiful.
On the Nascent Soul's arms, two black swords were engraved, emitting an aura of destruction that, just by looking at them, stung one's eyes.
Boom.
Just then, a tremendous roar suddenly came from the Dantian, and an incomparably terrifying Spiritual Qi erupted from the Nascent Soul, beginning to cleanse Ye Lin's entire body.
Suddenly, the Nascent Soul began to emit a mysterious aura, under which the Spiritual Qi seemed to drop several levels.
Even the Phoenix Fire, which had been flying around the Nascent Soul, obediently lay in the Dantian, a hint of human-like fear flashing in its eyes.
Among the myriad treasures of Heaven and Earth, once they reach Heaven Rank, they can birth their own divinity.
It is said that legendary Immortal Rank treasures can directly transform into human form, with their initial strength being at the Soul Transformation Realm.
This mysterious aura began to spread, strengthening every part of Ye Lin's body, and even his Divine Soul was increasing at a visible rate.
"Hiss, is this a Heavenly Dao blessing?"
Feeling this mysterious aura, Ye Lin was shocked.
This mysterious aura was a Heavenly Dao blessing.
Such a situation is rarely seen, even among billions of Cultivators.
As the Supreme Heavenly Dao, even a tiny bit of what it casually leaks can benefit a Cultivator for life.
Boom, boom, boom.
With three loud bangs, Ye Lin's Spiritual Root was directly elevated to Medium Grade Spiritual Root; this time, his three Spiritual Roots were successfully upgraded to Medium Grade Spiritual Root.
"Hiss, what a powerful Heavenly Dao blessing."
Feeling the improvement of his Spiritual Root, Ye Lin was utterly astonished.
He had only heard that Heavenly Dao blessings were incredibly terrifying, something ninety-nine percent of Cultivators would never witness in their lifetime.
But he never expected this Heavenly Dao blessing to be so terrifying, directly and forcefully elevating his Spiritual Roots.
Moreover, there were no side effects, and his Foundation was incredibly solid.
As two days passed, creatures within a thousand-li radius centered around the Slashing Immortal Sect prostrated themselves on the ground, their eyes filled with fear, their bodies trembling.
It was a pressure originating from a higher level of life.
And within the Slashing Immortal Sect, everyone, without exception, prostrated themselves on the ground, worshipping with their five limbs, all looking towards the Sect's main hall.
Under this pressure, they felt like mere ants, no, even weaker than ants.
"Nascent Soul Stage, complete."
In the secret chamber, Ye Lin opened his eyes and examined his body.
That's right, the commotion just now was caused by him.
Having just Breakthroughn to the Nascent Soul Stage, he hadn't yet become accustomed to this power, causing some of his strength to leak out, which led to the scene just now.
"This Heavenly Dao blessing is indeed terrifying; it not only elevated my other three Spiritual Roots to Medium Grade but also forcefully raised my Physical Body Realm to the Nascent Soul Stage."
"A Nascent Soul Stage Physical Body and a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivation are truly too terrifying."
"I feel like I could punch a Savage Ox to death right now."
Feeling the destructive power contained within his body, Ye Lin said softly.
Savage Oxen are creatures that live in the Savage Lands; they are naturally incredibly defensive, and among those of the same Realm, if they don't have the aid of Divine Weapons or Sharp Weapons, no creature can break their defense.
"By my calculations, Li Shengli should be arriving soon."
Ye Lin calculated the time with his fingers, speaking softly.
"Oh, right, I should check my panel."
Name: Ye Lin
Cultivation: Early Stage Nascent Soul Stage
Fate: Green
Fate Principles: 【Slightly Lucky】 【Divine Comprehension】
Destiny: Stops at Early Stage Soul Transformation. When you return Bai Ling to the Grand Elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall, the Grand Elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall suddenly goes back on his word and kills you. From then on, your body perishes, and your Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.
Recent Opportunity: Three days later, Li Shengli will come to the Slashing Immortal Sect. After killing Li Shengli, you will obtain a large amount of Spirit Stones and Heaven and Earth treasures from him.
【Plain and Unremarkable】: A bit of luck, but not much. Good luck can often help you turn danger into safety in times of crisis.
【Divine Comprehension】: Your Comprehension Ability is extraordinary. You comprehend various Cultivation Techniques extremely quickly. For the same Cultivation Technique, others need three months, while you only need a few days.
Looking at his panel, Ye Lin's face was filled with a cold sneer.
Ten Thousand Demons Hall, according to the panel, he would die when he returned Bai Ling, and it would be the Grand Elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall who personally made the move.
The Grand Elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall, that was a peerless Demon Venerable in the He Dao Stage, with terrifying strength.
"It seems the day I return Bai Ling will have to be postponed indefinitely. Trading with the Yao Race is no different from asking a tiger for its skin."
"It's not too late to go after I Breakthrough to the He Dao Stage."
After a moment of thought, Ye Lin mused inwardly.
If he hadn't seen this panel, he might have truly gone to the Ten Thousand Demons Hall after Breakthroughing to the Soul Transformation Realm.
Because Breakthroughing to the Soul Transformation Realm truly placed one at the peak of the East Continent.
He never expected such an outcome; it seems the Soul Transformation Realm is still not enough.
"Li Shengli will come here in three days? Good, then I will wait for you for three days."
"Presumably, the wealth on Li Shengli will be plundered, which is convenient for me."
After speaking, Ye Lin pushed open the door of the secret chamber and walked out.
"Congratulations, Senior, on Breakthroughing to the Nascent Soul Stage; the path of Immortals is unobstructed."
As soon as he stepped out, Zhang Zhidao bowed respectfully to Ye Lin.
If he had been somewhat dissatisfied before, now he didn't dare to even let out a fart.
He could still contend with a Golden Core Stage, but a Nascent Soul Stage? Forget it.
When that pressure arrived just now, it was a luxury for him to even move while prostrate on the ground.
Sure enough, ever since Ye Lin came out, his address changed from Fellow Daoist to Senior.
In the Cultivation world, age is not considered; the capable take precedence.
"No need for such formality, Sect Leader Zhang. I've calculated with my fingers that in three days, someone will come to your Slashing Immortal Sect with the aim of slaughtering your Slashing Immortal Sect. Do you believe it or not?"
After Ye Lin finished speaking, Zhang Zhidao's heart tightened, and then he looked at Ye Lin with both eyes.
