Mortal Cultivator

The Ancient Dao Realm has always been a mysterious and dangerous existence. The spiritual energy here is rich but chaotic, and the power of the laws is crisscrossed, like an invisible giant net, binding every practitioner who tries to break through here. And Wang Lu, a strong man with the cultivation of the early stage of the Immortal Emperor, is now deeply trapped in the predicament of this Ancient Dao Realm. Every step forward is extremely difficult, as if there is a heavy burden on him.

Wang Lu was originally a genius, and he embarked on the road of cultivating immortals since he was a child. He was born in an ordinary small mountain village, but he accidentally got an ancient immortal cultivation secret book, and since then he started his legendary life. On the road of cultivation, he cut through thorns and experienced countless difficulties and obstacles. Whether facing ferocious monsters or sinister human hearts, he never retreated. With his own understanding and perseverance, his cultivation soared all the way, and soon he emerged among many immortal cultivators.

After breaking through to the early stage of the Immortal Emperor, Wang Lu's reputation spread throughout the immortal cultivation world. He was full of energy and thought that he had already stood at the pinnacle of the road to immortal cultivation, and no problems in the world could stop him from moving forward. However, the moment he stepped into the Ancient Dao Realm, he truly felt what it meant to have a world beyond the world.

When he first entered the Ancient Dao Realm, Wang Lu was shocked by the complex environment here. The colorful light in the sky flickered unsteadily. It was not a beautiful scene, but the result of the collision of chaotic spiritual energy. The ground was rugged and uneven, some places were as hard as iron, and some places were as soft as mud. Every step required caution. The surrounding mountains were undulating, seemingly ordinary, but contained various dangerous restrictions.

Wang Lu tried to use his best immortal method, but the immortal method that could split mountains and rocks and call the wind and rain in the past was greatly discounted here. The spiritual power he emitted was like a stone sinking into the sea, swallowed by the invisible power of the Ancient Dao Realm. He tried to fly, but soon after he took off, he was hit by a strong airflow and fell heavily to the ground, in a mess.

As he stayed in the Ancient Dao Realm for longer and longer, Wang Lu felt more and more insignificant. The power of the laws here is completely different from that in the outside world, and the laws he had comprehended before are not applicable here at all. Every time he tried to use his spiritual power to perceive the surrounding environment, he would be attacked by the power of the laws, which gave him a splitting headache.

Once, Wang Lu thought that with his cultivation, he could find some precious natural treasures in the Ancient Dao Realm and further improve his strength. But now, even self-protection has become a problem for him. Once, he found a fairy grass emitting a strange light. There was a faint halo around the fairy grass, which was not an ordinary thing at first glance. Wang Lu approached with joy, but he didn't know that there was a special restriction hidden around the fairy grass. The moment he touched the restriction, the surrounding space was instantly distorted, and countless sharp blades appeared from the void and shot at him.

Wang Lu hurriedly used the defensive fairy method, but under the suppression of the special laws of the Ancient Dao Realm, his defense seemed so fragile. The sharp blade cut through his clothes and left deep wounds on his skin. Blood was flowing, but he did not dare to slack off at all, and tried his best to escape from the forbidden attack.

In the ancient road world, Wang Lu also encountered various illusions. Once, his hometown when he was a child appeared in front of him, with familiar mountains and rivers, friendly villagers, everything was so real. He saw his parents, their faces were filled with kind smiles, calling his name. A warm current surged in Wang Lu's heart, and he subconsciously wanted to walk towards his parents. However, at the moment he took a step, his reason told him that this was an illusion. He resisted the emotions in his heart and used the method of breaking illusions to break free from this seemingly beautiful illusion. But the emotional impact brought to him by the illusion made him unable to calm down for a long time.

Not only that, there are some mysterious existences in the ancient road world. Sometimes, Wang Lu would feel that there were pairs of eyes peeping at him in the dark, and the eyes were cold and piercing, which made him shudder. He tried to find the source of these eyes, but he returned empty-handed every time. Once, when he was on his way, he suddenly heard a low roar, which seemed to come from the depths of hell, shaking his blood. He looked around vigilantly, but found nothing. This unknown fear made his nerves tense all the time.

In this difficult situation, Wang Lu's mentality began to change. He gradually became a little anxious and depressed from his initial confidence. He began to doubt his ability and doubt whether he could really survive in the ancient world, let alone break through his cultivation. He, who used to be brave and forward, now has a little confusion.

However, Wang Lu is Wang Lu after all. After countless setbacks and blows, the burning flame in his heart did not go out. He knew that if he gave up here, he would never be able to break through his limits. So he began to try to calm down and re-examine his path of cultivation.

He no longer blindly used the immortal method, but started from the most basic spiritual power operation. He found a relatively safe place, sat down cross-legged, and carefully felt the chaotic spiritual energy in the ancient world. He tried to find a pattern, even just a little clue. Day after day, he was immersed in this boring exploration.

In constant attempts, Wang Lu discovered that although the spiritual energy in the ancient world was disordered, at certain specific moments, there would be a short period of order. He grasped this discovery tightly, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. He began to record the laws of these special moments. After a long period of observation and analysis, he found that these ordered states seemed to have some connection with the movement of the stars in the ancient world.

With this major discovery, Wang Lu's confidence returned a little. He began to adjust his practice time and method according to the movement of the stars. He tried to absorb the spiritual energy when the spiritual energy was orderly, and then use his spiritual power to sort out the spiritual energy when it was disordered and transform it into his own power.

This process was extremely difficult, and every attempt was accompanied by huge risks. Several times, because he did not grasp the opportunity well, the spiritual energy backfired in his body, causing him to suffer serious internal injuries. But he did not give up, adjusting again and again, and trying again and again.

As time went on, Wang Lu made some progress in controlling the spiritual energy in the ancient world. He was able to use the spiritual energy here to a certain extent. Although it was far from enough, it was already a good start. He began to try some simple explorations in the Ancient Dao Realm, no longer as embarrassed as before.

During an exploration, Wang Lu met an old man who was also trapped in the Ancient Dao Realm. The old man exuded a mysterious aura, and his cultivation was unfathomable. Wang Lu went up to talk to the old man, hoping to get some information about the Ancient Dao Realm from him. The old man looked at Wang Lu, with a flash of approval in his eyes. He told Wang Lu that the Ancient Dao Realm is a place to test the mind and wisdom of practitioners, and all the difficulties here are opportunities for practitioners to grow. Only by truly understanding the mysteries of the Ancient Dao Realm can one break through one's own cultivation and move towards a higher realm.

Wang Lu was deeply inspired by the old man's words. He realized that he had been paying too much attention to the use of cultivation and immortal methods, and neglected the cultivation of the state of mind. In the following days, while he was working hard to improve his ability to control aura, he also began to cultivate his state of mind.

When facing various dangers and illusions in the Ancient Dao Realm, he no longer simply relied on immortal methods to deal with them, but tried to feel them with his heart. When he encountered danger, he kept his heart calm, analyzed the situation calmly, and looked for the best way to deal with it. When facing illusions, he no longer broke free by force, but tried to understand some truths from the illusions.

In this way, Wang Lu fought against the harsh environment in the ancient world while cultivating his state of mind and cultivation. Every step he took was difficult, but every step was closer to a breakthrough. He knew that he still had a long way to go, but he was no longer confused because he had found the direction to move forward in the ancient world.

In constant training, Wang Lu gradually adapted to the laws of the ancient world. His spiritual power ran more smoothly in his body, and his perception of the surrounding environment became more acute. He could now see some clues to the restrictions that had given him a headache, and could cleverly avoid or crack them.

Once, he encountered a powerful restriction again. There were strong spiritual power fluctuations around the restriction, which looked extremely complicated. If it were before, Wang Lu might have chosen to bypass it, but now, he decided to challenge it. He calmed down, carefully observed the flow of spiritual power in the ban, and used the power of the law he had newly comprehended to try to find the weak point of the ban. After a long period of analysis, he finally found a breakthrough point, and then carefully performed the immortal method and successfully broke through the ban.

Behind the ban, he found an ancient cave. The cave was filled with a mysterious atmosphere, and the walls were engraved with ancient runes and patterns. Wang Lu walked into the cave, full of curiosity. He began to study these runes and patterns, and found that they contained some information about the deeper laws of the ancient world.

This information was like a priceless treasure to Wang Lu, and he absorbed it eagerly. Through the understanding of this information, his understanding of the ancient world has risen to a new height. He began to try to apply these new laws to his practice and combat, with remarkable results.

With a deeper understanding of the laws of the ancient world, Wang Lu's actions in the ancient world have become more comfortable. He is no longer the practitioner who is difficult to advance, but gradually becomes a strong man who can explore deeper secrets in the ancient world. Although his cultivation is still in the early stage of the Immortal Emperor, his strength has made a qualitative leap.

In the subsequent exploration, Wang Lu encountered many new challenges. There are powerful ancient beasts guarding precious treasures, more complex illusions testing his state of mind, and some mysterious forces secretly against him. But Wang Lu dealt with them one by one, and his legendary story in the ancient world is still being written, and he is constantly moving towards a higher realm.

In this ancient world full of dangers and opportunities, Wang Lu is like a bright star, trying to shine in the dark, constantly breaking through his limits, and heading towards the unknown. Every experience of his has become the cornerstone of his growth, and his persistence and hard work have also allowed him to find his own path in this predicament, and this path will lead him to a more glorious future.

Wang Lu knows that his journey is far from over, and there are more secrets in the ancient world waiting for him to uncover, and he will continue to explore in this mysterious world with his own beliefs and courage until he truly becomes the one standing at the top.

Although the spiritual energy here is disordered, Wang Lu has gradually found a way to adapt after a long period of exploration. The surroundings are barren and rugged, some of which are like sharp swords piercing the sky, and some are like giant beasts lying dormant on the ground. Strange light often flashes in the sky, which is the gorgeous color produced by the collision of disordered spiritual energy.

Wang Lu sat cross-legged in a quiet valley, where there is a small spiritual spring, and the spiritual energy is relatively stable. He closed his eyes and concentrated, and the spiritual energy around him slowly gathered towards him and flowed along his meridians. Every cycle gave him a deeper understanding of the laws of the ancient world. He knew that in this place, only by constantly becoming stronger can there be a possibility of survival, and breaking through the shackles of the early stage of the Immortal Emperor is his biggest goal at present.

One day, Wang Lu was practicing, and suddenly felt a strong spiritual power fluctuation coming from the sky. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at the sky, only to see a huge shadow covering him. It was a starry sky beast, as huge as a mountain, emitting brilliant starlight all over its body, as if the stars in the universe were given life. Every hair of the beast seemed to be condensed from the purest spiritual power, and its eyes were like two scorching suns, emitting a majestic and fierce light.

The starry sky beast seemed to have sensed Wang Lu's presence, it opened its bloody mouth and let out a roar that shook the earth. The roar was like rolling thunder, echoing in the ancient road world, shaking the surrounding rocks and rolling down. Wang Lu was shocked, he knew that he had encountered an unprecedented powerful enemy. But he had no intention of retreating, and a strong fighting spirit ignited in his eyes.

Wang Lu's figure flashed, and he flew into the air in an instant, confronting the starry sky beast. His sword appeared in his hand, and the sword body flashed with a cold light. This was the magic weapon he had obtained after countless hardships in his cultivation. The beast took the lead in launching an attack, waving its huge claws, bringing a gust of wind, and slapping Wang Lu fiercely. Wherever the claws passed, cracks appeared in the space, showing its great power.

Wang Lu used his body skills and dodged like lightning. His figure left a trail of afterimages in the air, cleverly avoiding the attack of the giant beast. But the giant beast's attacks continued, and its tail swept across like a huge whip. Wang Lu was unable to dodge and was swept by the tail. The whole person flew out like a cannonball and hit a mountain heavily. The mountain collapsed instantly, and smoke and dust filled the air.

Wang Lu stood up from the ruins, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. He wiped the corner of his mouth, and his eyes became more determined. He knew that in the face of such a strong enemy, he could not be careless. He began to use his immortal skills, chanting in his mouth, and spiritual power surged out of his body, forming a layer of shield around him. At the same time, the sword in his hand shone brightly, and stabbed at the starry sky giant beast.

The sword, with a sharp sword energy, cut through the sky and slashed at the giant beast's eyes. The beast felt threatened, and it suddenly closed its eyes, and a layer of hard spiritual armor appeared on its eyelids. Wang Lu's sword stabbed it, splashing a burst of sparks, but failed to cause substantial damage to the beast. The beast took this opportunity to attack again, and it spewed out a flame condensed from the power of the stars, burning towards Wang Lu.

Wang Lu hurriedly used the water magic to try to resist the flames. However, the power of this star flame was beyond imagination, and the water evaporated instantly in front of the flame, and the flame continued to rush towards Wang Lu. Wang Lu was forced to dodge again, and he flashed and hid behind a huge stone. The flame melted the stone instantly, and Wang Lu's situation became more and more dangerous.

But Wang Lu did not panic. While dodging, he carefully observed the attack methods and weaknesses of the star beast. He found that every time the beast launched a powerful attack, the spiritual power in its body would stagnate for a short time. This was an opportunity, and he decided to seize this flaw. Wang Lu took a deep breath and raised his spiritual power to the extreme. He performed a forbidden technique, which can greatly improve his strength in a short period of time, but will cause considerable damage to himself.

A layer of brilliant light appeared around Wang Lu's body. His cultivation temporarily broke through the limitations of the early stage of the Immortal Emperor under the blessing of the forbidden technique. He rushed towards the starry sky beast like a meteor, and waved the sword in his hand to make complex sword moves. These sword moves contain his profound understanding of the sword, and each sword cuts the vital point of the beast.

The beast was caught off guard by Wang Lu's sudden increase in attack, and several deep wounds appeared on his body. Blood flowed from the wound and fell on the land of the ancient world. The beast roared angrily, and it began to attack everything around it frantically, trying to force Wang Lu out. Its attack was more fierce, and the entire ancient world was trembling under its ravages.

Wang Lu was struggling to dodge under the crazy attack of the beast, and his body could no longer withstand the backlash of the forbidden technique. But he knew that he could not give up now. Once he gave up, he would die without a burial place. He gritted his teeth and continued to fight the beast. While dodging the beast's attack, Wang Lu discovered that there was a relatively weak spiritual power fluctuation in the beast's abdomen. He guessed that it might be a weak spot for the beast.

Wang Lu decided to go all out. He gathered all his spiritual power and rushed towards the beast's abdomen. The beast sensed Wang Lu's intention and tried to stop him with his claws, but Wang Lu was too fast. He successfully avoided the beast's defense and stabbed the beast's abdomen with his sword.

The moment the saber pierced the beast's abdomen, the beast let out a shrill scream. Its body trembled violently, and a large amount of blood gushed out of the wound. Wang Lu took the opportunity to stir the saber in the beast's body to further expand the wound. The beast struggled in pain, and its attack became more chaotic and disordered.

However, the beast's dying counterattack was also extremely terrifying. It used all its strength to spit out a star flame again, and this time the flame was more fierce than before. Wang Lu was surrounded by flames, and he felt the threat of death. But he did not give up. He used his remaining spiritual power to maintain the shield, and at the same time constantly drew strength from the chaotic spiritual energy around him to try to resist the flames.

Under the burning of the flames, Wang Lu's shield gradually became weak. His skin was scorched by the flames, and his body was in pain. But his eyes were still firm, and he had only one belief in his heart, that is, to kill the beast. On the verge of life and death, Wang Lu burst out with amazing potential, and his spiritual power produced a wonderful resonance with the surrounding environment.

Suddenly, the flames died down, and Wang Lu rushed out of the flames. He was covered in wounds, but he still rushed towards the beast. The beast had become weak due to the serious injuries, and Wang Lu seized this opportunity to use his sharp sword moves again, constantly attacking the beast. After a hard fight, Wang Lu finally succeeded in killing the star beast.

The huge body of the beast fell from the sky, smashed on the ground, and raised a cloud of dust. Wang Lu fell to the ground tiredly, and he looked at the body of the beast and felt relieved. In this battle, he almost exhausted all his spiritual power and suffered extremely serious injuries. But his efforts were not in vain. In the body of the beast, he found a demon pill of the level of the Immortal Emperor.

This demon pill exuded a dazzling light and contained extremely powerful energy. Wang Lu knew that this demon pill was a huge opportunity for him. He carefully put away the demon pill, and then found a safe place to start healing. During the healing process, he recalled the battle with the star beast, which gave him a deeper understanding of his own strength and the dangers of the ancient world.

He knew that there were more challenges waiting for him in the ancient world. But he was confident that with his own efforts and this precious demon pill, he would be able to break through his cultivation and become a more powerful existence. In this mysterious and cruel world, Wang Lu's legend continues to be written, and he will continue to move towards a higher realm with his own beliefs and courage.

After a long period of healing, Wang Lu's injuries gradually improved. He began to study the demon pill of the fairy emperor level, trying to find a way to absorb the energy in it. He knew that this was not an easy thing, and if it was not handled well, it might be backfired by the energy in the demon pill. But Wang Lu was not intimidated by the difficulties. He retreated in the valley and devoted himself to the study of the demon pill.

He first arranged a powerful ban to prevent interference from the outside world during the process of absorbing energy. Then, he carefully took out the demon pill and placed it in front of him. The light emitted by the demon pill illuminated the entire retreat area, and the power contained in the light made Wang Lu feel palpitations. He took a deep breath and began to perform a special technique that he found in ancient books and was specifically used to absorb the energy of the demon pill.

As the technique was running, the energy in the demon pill slowly flowed to Wang Lu. At first, the flow of energy was still very slow, but as Wang Lu gradually adapted, the flow of energy became faster and faster. Wang Lu felt a strong force pouring into his body, which rushed through his meridians and made him suffer. He quickly concentrated his mind and guided this force to flow in his body along a specific route.
