Chapter 602: Laozi?

The blood exchange lasted for half an hour. Yang Tian's entire body suddenly turned a vivid red, as if cast in blood, emitting a terrifying blood light.

"What's happening?" Seeing the blood-soaked Yang Tian, Fatty and the others were shocked and couldn't help but shout.

"It seems like he's being reborn?" Yuan Xia, in her white clothes, appeared ethereal. At this moment, her body trembled slightly, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes, uncertainly.

However, just as many were hoping for Yang Tian to meet with misfortune, his body suddenly cracked, as if struck by lightning, shattering like porcelain.

"Flesh and blood regeneration!" someone exclaimed, their face full of disbelief. He was reforging his flesh and blood!

"Unbelievable. The Creation Divine Pool truly lives up to its reputation, allowing one to be reborn!" someone marveled.

Old skin peeled off, and new flesh grew, emitting dazzling precious radiance and a spreading fragrance. Every inch was like jade carving, like the legendary flawless precious body!

"A terrifying divine pool, complete rebirth!" People were astonished. Yang Tian's body became even more fearsome, strands of divine light dazzlingly bright, blood energy terrifying like a furnace, shaking.

Not only that, but Yang Tian's soul body was also mutating. Although the soul refining stage required seeking extreme yin and yang treasures for tempering, the Creation Divine Pool was the foremost of the ten ancient treasures, its aura capable of smelting all things and recreating all things.

The soul body sat cross-legged within the sea of consciousness, surrounded by creation divine energy. Strands of divine light penetrated it, and the origin of Yang Tian's soul body expanded, the entire soul body becoming more condensed at an extremely rapid pace!

At this moment, a divine diagram suddenly appeared above his head, yin and yang, emitting hazy divine light, and a tremendous soul pressure descended.

The soul body sat cross-legged upon it, like a divine king, but the diagram only flashed and then dissipated.

Outside, many strong cultivators looked at the increasingly terrifying figure in the void and couldn't help but wipe their sweat. Yang Tian's surging strength never paused for a moment, startling the soul.

At this time, Yang Tian's aura suddenly became ethereal, eternal and enduring, as if merging with heaven and earth, sacred and inviolable, his entire body emitting a thousand-zhang divine light that reached the heavens and the earth.

"He has comprehended it!" Seeing this, Yuan Xia's jade hand suddenly clenched, and a hint of joy appeared in her eyes. This energy of merging with heaven and earth was the most difficult threshold for Yang Tian to step into immortality in the future.

"This little thief has good luck." Yu Yao couldn't help but feel jealous, her mouth curling up nicely. The price she paid when she comprehended it back then, even now thinking about it made her heart ache.

This aura only flashed briefly. Yang Tian slowly opened his eyes, his blood energy piercing through heaven and earth, the Wheel of Life in his chest humming like a heavenly millstone turning.

His entire body was dazzling, flowing with fragrance, his flesh without any impurities, as if cast from divine gold.

Yang Tian's black hair fluttered, his black clothes ethereal, his temperament transcendent, like an exiled immortal standing between heaven and earth, eternal and enduring!

He sublimated in the extreme, shedding his mortal body and changing his bones, becoming even more terrifyingly mighty. At this moment, Yang Tian's eyelids twitched slightly, and his mind sank into his body.

The soul body trembled, emitting a terrifying soul fluctuation. The divine wood floating in the void hummed, releasing strands of pure soul fluctuations.

"About to break through." Seeing this, a hint of joy appeared in Yang Tian's eyes. Breaking through in the refining stage was extremely difficult; he hadn't expected this opportunity to be so astonishing.

He drew in the surrounding creation divine energy and poured it onto his soul body. After a while, Yang Tian's entire body trembled violently, and a terrifying soul fluctuation burst forth instantly.

"So strong! Breaking through to the intermediate level, the soul body has actually doubled in strength!" Yang Tian couldn't help but click his tongue, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Now, the power with which he could activate divine objects would be extremely astonishing.

At the peak of the Creation Heavenly Staircase, Yang Tian stood unmoving, a divine halo surrounding his head, his entire body blooming with terrifying divine light, like a minor divine king descending into the world.

Around him, tides rose and fell, hazy divine light obscuring his form, vast and surging, like a divine sea floating around him, startling the soul.

Yang Tian sighed, divine light bursting from his eyes, like two blazing suns crossing the sky, truly terrifying.

His physical body trembled slightly, and the great Dao divine sound exploded, as if gods were roaring. The golden Wheel of Life on his chest hummed like a heavenly millstone.

Compared to before, his Wheel of Life had strengthened to a degree that even Yang Tian was astonished. If the former Wheel of Life was a spark, now it was a blazing flame!

Like a heavenly millstone, the Wheel of Life trembled slightly, and a terrifying great Dao divine sound resounded through the nine heavens, enough to split the void, extremely chilling.

"Unfortunately, the eighth Dao body is indestructible; without reaching the realm, I cannot break through." At this moment, Yang Tian sighed, then a hint of regret appeared in his eyes.

If not for the Creation Divine Pool, Yang Tian's sixth divine treasure would have consumed a vast amount of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and opening the seventh Dao body was already a great fortune.

At this moment, a golden river appeared above Yang Tian's head, surging, as if violent waves were colliding within. The clouds in the void were scattered, and every strand of golden energy had mutated, containing creation aura.

With a hum, a divine diagram descended from the sky, starlight divine light spreading, and all the artifacts below returned to their places. A strand of chaotic light poured down, indistinct, hard to imagine this was a single artifact.

"Master." Black Demon was excited, floating before Yang Tian, emitting dazzling divine radiance. Black Demon's transformation had become even more terrifying, with a hint of fearsome divine might awakening, as if about to pierce a hole in the sky.

Among these artifacts, Yang Tian still favored Black Demon the most, having traveled the continent with him since childhood, with an unbreakable bond.

Calculating the time, Yang Tian sighed. One day had passed. Yang Tian slowly stood up and was about to walk down when his eyes suddenly locked tight.

Boom! In an instant, heaven and earth split apart, and the sky actually collapsed! A terrifying Dao sound came, as if the world was ending, shocking everyone present.

"What's happening?" People were stunned, looking at the rolling chaotic sea of clouds in the void, their eyes nearly popping out.

"What's going on? Has a major accident occurred?" The crowd shivered. The celestial phenomenon was too terrifying, like the arrival of doomsday, impossible to resist, and it pressed down across the entire sky, stretching endlessly.

On a large tree, the big black bird nearly fell off, looking at the scene in the void, excitedly saying, "It really is the Heavenly Palace..."

Like a divine being awakening from chaos, a terrifying aura soared into the sky, and within the hazy chaotic light, auspicious radiance shone through.

Inside, something terrifying seemed to be conceived within the chaotic light. A corner of a great hall emerged, emitting blazing divine light, terrifying enough to make one tremble!

"A palace? Could a god be living inside?" A middle-aged human shouted, nearly prostrating in worship.

"How terrifying! A divine palace descending from chaos—is this the work of a god?" Everyone couldn't help but be dumbfounded. The fluctuations emanating from within were too terrifying; people's hair stood on end.

A loud crash resounded, the great Dao divine sound exploded, chaotic mist trembled continuously, as if a divine palace had fallen from the nine heavens, flowing with hazy mist, with galaxies revolving.

"Could this be the legendary Heavenly Palace?" Someone couldn't help it, recalling the rumored thing. In ancient times, the Heavenly Palace had descended, but it was only a fleeting glimpse!

Various speculations arose, noise filling the sky. At this moment, a terrifying figure appeared between heaven and earth, vast and boundless, spanning who knows how many thousands of miles.

This was an old man, white hair fluttering, like a god descending, with a kind face. His beard fell like a waterfall, cutting off the void, truly terrifying.

The old man rode a green ox, as if cast from divine gold, emitting overwhelming divine power. His eyes were like two abysses, with terrifying whirlpools surging within, making people dare not look directly, as they could devour one's soul.

The old man rode the green ox, his entire body shining with purple radiance, like a great sun crossing the sky. Many prostrated in worship, floating down. This was likely a god!

"A deity?" People trembled with fear, not daring to look directly at the old man.

"Is this the Laozi from mythology..." The black-clothed youth's hair stood on end, disbelief flooding his eyes, and he couldn't help but roar inwardly.
