Chapter 569: Chapter 568: Breaking Through the Illusion Realm, Stepping into Mahayana

At this moment, Ji Haoyuan truly felt a significant enhancement in his strength.

Even if a Mahayana cultivator were to stand before him, he had full confidence to kill him through direct combat.

The only thing that puzzled him slightly was that with his current understanding of the Dao he cultivated, why there was no sign of breakthrough in his realm.

This was a bit strange.

Logically, with his accumulation here this time, his cultivation realm should have ascended to Mahayana.

Yet the fact was, his realm remained completely unchanged.

This made him involuntarily fall into deep thought.

But at this very moment, an incredibly brilliant celestial light suddenly blossomed before him.

Following that, a door, seemingly leading to the Immortal Realm, opened right before his eyes.

In an instant, a surge of emotion emerged within Ji Haoyuan’s heart.

He wanted to enter that portal.

Once inside, he could obtain the fragmented piece of immortal treasure found here.

Instinctively, Ji Haoyuan stepped forward.

But just then, the Soul Destruction Spear on him suddenly trembled violently.

At the same time, a strange sensation inexplicably rose from the depths of his heart, seemingly trying to prevent him from moving forward.

What was happening?

Clearly, he was about to obtain the most precious treasure here.

Why did his inner heart and the Profound Celestial Treasure he held seem to be stopping him from doing so?

What was he overlooking in all of this?

Ji Haoyuan once again fell into contemplation.

At the same time, the light of the portal in front of him became even more dazzling.

The celestial light subtly began to spread toward him, as if attempting to envelop him.

Wait... wait!

It indeed felt like something was wrong!

Among all the real and illusory experiences I’ve gone through, what roles have I played?

Why can’t I remember any of them now?

Moreover, the most crucial thing is why, despite having experienced those realizations and even glimpsed the boundaries between reality and illusion, my cultivation hasn’t advanced?

There is a problem, something is indeed wrong!

In that instant, Ji Haoyuan’s eyes suddenly widened.

At the center of his brow, the third eye, the Eye of Divine Punishment, abruptly opened.

Boom!

The entire world seemed to be thoroughly illuminated at this moment.

Celestial light, treasures, opportunities.

In that instant, all disappeared completely.

What appeared before him instead was a blooming demonic flower.

The entire flower exhibited a mysterious purple-black color.

Around it, waves of purple-black mist were surging.

The most terrifying part was in the center of its blossom, dense and sharp teeth opening and closing like blades.

Inside, it seemed to contain an extremely frightening rule power.

"What is this?"

A surge of horror welled up in Ji Haoyuan’s heart.

What he had just gone through was not enlightenment of the Dao!

It was clearly the mesmerization by this demonic flower before him, leading him into a realm of illusion and reality.

If he had recklessly moved forward at that moment, he would have entered not a gleaming portal but the very mouth of this demonic flower!

No wonder he sensed many incongruities and irrationalities.

Even the Profound Celestial Treasure constantly warned him.

Unconsciously, a wave of lingering fear surged in Ji Haoyuan’s heart once more.

It was truly hair-raising.

Just a little more, really just a little more.

He could have met his end here today.

Reflecting on this, a cold intent gradually emerged in his eyes.

Buzz!

At that moment, the Profound Celestial Treasure Soul Destruction Spear suddenly transformed into a streak of jet-black light, rushing toward the demonic flower.

"Hiss!"

As if sensing danger, the demonic flower emitted a sharp screech from its mouth.

Sonic waves capable of obliterating the Primordial Spirit directly shot toward Ji Haoyuan.

Boom!

Above Ji Haoyuan’s head, brilliant golden light flashed fiercely.

Thick Pure Yang Light instantly formed a large bell, blocking the onslaught of sonic waves.

At the same time.

The Soul Destruction Spear had already reached the vicinity of the demonic flower.

With a puffing sound.

The tip of the spear suddenly plunged into the demon flower’s maw.

At that instant, a large amount of purple-black mist erupted from the demonic flower’s body.

In that instant, Ji Haoyuan felt a renewed risk of losing his consciousness.

He decisively used the Past Heart from the Three Heart Years Secret Manual to transfer all the anomalies to his past self.

Rumble!

At the same time.

Five-colored lightning, like a massive net, instantly enveloped the demonic flower.

Splutter!

At that moment, the demonic flower could no longer withstand, and its entire body suddenly exploded.

Ji Haoyuan dared not be careless.

The Three Heart Years Secret Manual was once again used.

Until all purple-black mist and the remnants of the demonic flower completely disappeared.

Before his eyes, a stone slab finally appeared.

The stone slab was densely covered with many symbols resembling the Immortal Dao.

Within it, the laws of the Great Dao were weaving, quickly immersing Ji Haoyuan within them.

At this moment, he was certain beyond a doubt that he wasn’t lost in an illusory realm, but truly encountering the opportunity here.

He found that the Immortal Dao symbols engraved on the stone slab were not mere teachings or classics, but a discourse on the governance of the Great Dao.

It was an embodiment of a higher rule.

Through understanding the stone slab, Ji Haoyuan gained a clearer direction in understanding the Great Dao and the path he walked.

Boom!

At that moment, rule patterns interwove upon him.

A terrifying aura charged into the universe.

Faintly, a thunderous sound echoed through the heavens and earth.

Celestial Tribulation seemed about to descend.

At this moment, the path he walked had reached completion in this Lower Realm.

He had already stepped into the Mahayana Realm.

All he needed was to traverse the Celestial Tribulation to attain the true position of Saint Monarch.

Whoosh!

As if sensing the change in Ji Haoyuan.

In the invisible void, suddenly, a banner flew toward Ji Haoyuan.

The banner was entirely silver-white, inscribed with mystical symbols akin to tadpoles.

Most importantly, from that banner, Ji Haoyuan sensed a true Immortal Dao opportunity.

This wasn’t merely a fragment of the immortal treasure, but a genuine Half-Immortal Treasure.

The Immortal Dao Rules within it were nearly perfected.

What was lacking was the celestial baptism of Celestial Tribulation.

Swoosh!

Ji Haoyuan immediately extended his hand, taking hold of the banner.

Instantly, the banner trembled.

A large segment of information concerning this Half-Immortal Treasure surged into Ji Haoyuan’s mind.
