This really was a small cauldron that was less than an inch tall. It didn't emit any dazzling radiance or shocking fluctuations of divine power. There was only nature and grandeur.
Yes, it wasn't large and could even be considered small. However, it gave off a majestic feeling. It didn't seem like a supreme weapon, but more like a mountain and river, a star domain, a world of natural dao.
The source energy of all things was extremely rare and could be considered a treasure. It was a sacred object for refining weapons and was extremely hard to come by. There was even less of a need to mention the source energy's' root '. It only existed in legends and couldn't be seen. Now, it had been forged into a cauldron.
Ye Fan found it hard to calm down. He looked at this cauldron and liked it more and more. The black and yellow represented the heaven and earth. It had three legs and two ears and was perfectly round at the top. It displayed the dao and reason.
He operated a mysterious technique and wanted to bring out the cauldron. However, he found to his shock that the small cauldron was as heavy as a mountain and couldn't be moved.
"This …" He was truly shocked. The cauldron was as heavy as a mountain.
"Rise!" Ye Fan used all of his strength and shouted loudly. He poured all of his divine power into the small cauldron and finally brought it out.
It was simple and unadorned. It quietly floated in the air like a boulder at the beginning of the world. It didn't move at all.
"Suppress!" Ye Fan shouted softly and wanted to bring it into the distance.
The cauldron that was less than an inch tall shook in the air. The various boulders beside it silently turned into fine powder. The stone forest in front of him completely disappeared.
"The source energy of all things refined into a cauldron is terrifying as expected!"
Ye Fan retrieved the cauldron. He was happy at first, but then he frowned. This cauldron was too heavy and he couldn't move it at all. It felt like he was facing a great mountain. If it wasn't refined within his body and had an inseparable connection with him, he wouldn't be able to move it at all with his true cultivation!
This cauldron already had the aura of a great weapon. If it interweaved dao and reason, there would be a day when it would turn into an extreme weapon!
Ye Fan wasn't in a hurry to head to the seventh floor's multicolored flames. If he wanted to refine the cauldron, he would have plenty of time. He wanted to increase his cultivation before that.
His own strength was the foundation of everything. Otherwise, even with the cauldron on him, he wouldn't be able to move it as he wished.
Right now, his body was strong and his divine power was vigorous. If he calmed down and cultivated, he would definitely have a breakthrough in a short period of time.
Ye Fan chose a new stone forest and opened up a cave. He held the Bodhi Seed in his hand and sat cross-legged inside, starting to cultivate silently.
Last time, in the depths of the Qixia Mountain range — the space of the Peacock King, Ye Fan had already achieved something. He only needed to take half a step to reach the peak of the divine bridge.
Therefore, he was confident that he could break through to the Nirvana Realm here.
Time passed, and Ye Fan did not move at all. He quietly comprehended, and after a month, he finally reached the peak of the divine bridge. He was prepared to refine that fist-sized piece of origin.
But at this moment, he discovered something strange. His vision was blurry, and he couldn't see anything. It was as if he had lost his sense of direction.
"How could this be?" He was shocked, thinking that he had fallen into a trap.
However, there was no murderous aura, nor was there any fluctuation of divine power. The surroundings were quiet.
He sent out his powerful divine sense and scanned the surroundings. What was shocking was that when he sent out his divine sense, all he saw was a hazy fog and nothing else.
"My five senses, my spiritual sense … why are they blurry? What is hurting me?"
Ye Fan quickly calmed down and thought silently. Then, he muttered to himself, "Could it be …"
He thought of a possibility, a cultivation situation that he had neglected. The Divine Bridge Realm had the misfortune of being lost. The Dao Scriptures did not mention it in detail, so he had never paid attention to it.
All this time, when he was comprehending the Dao Scriptures, he had always focused on the heart's method. He didn't care about these irrelevant words.
The human body was full of mysteries, and cultivators didn't want to be trapped in the Sea of Bitterness. If they wanted to explore other secret realms of the human body, they had to strengthen the Sea of Bitterness.
Only by cultivating the Vein of the Heavens and crossing the Sea of Bitterness to the Nirvana Realm could one break free from this predicament. This was the Divine Bridge Realm, a very crucial stage.
However, the Vein of the Heavens grew and traversed the void. Just how far could it extend to reach the Nirvana Realm? Some people would spend their entire lives unable to see through the fabrications, and would be trapped on this end of the divine bridge, unable to cross the Sea of Bitterness. This was the misfortune of being lost.
In the most severe cases, one's five senses would be stripped away, and one's spiritual sense would be lost. One would become an ignorant and senseless cripple, which was the most terrifying.
When most people formed the Vein of the Heavens, they would be blocked by the dense fog, not knowing where they should go. However, it was not serious. As long as one calmed down, one could pass through it without being stopped.
Ye Fan's cultivation had been very smooth up until now. It could be said that there were no twists and turns. Before he reached the peak of the divine bridge, he had not been restricted at all.
It was only at this moment that it completely flared up. Endless dense fog rushed out, and the fabrications obscured his spiritual sense, blocking his path forward. This was a serious misfortune of being lost.
"Crossing the sea is the Nirvana Realm!" A test of life and death was placed in front of him, and he had to go through it. There was no such thing as retreat, or else his five senses would be stripped away, and he would be completely lost.
Ye Fan placed the piece of origin to the side, and put the Bodhi Seed into his robes. He wanted to face it head-on, and not leave himself anything to rely on.
Powerful cultivators had to pass this stage by themselves. They had to experience it personally, or else their future cultivation would be shrouded in shadows, and their spiritual sense would no longer be sharp.
This was a process of questioning one's heart, and not a process of relying on external objects.
From a certain perspective, although the misfortune of being lost was a kind of tribulation, if one passed it, their body and mind would be baptized, and their instincts would be awakened. Their subconsciousness would become stronger, and they would see through the fabrications and reach the source.
Ye Fan closed his eyes and did not move. He was as still as a fossil, and only after half a month did he say in a low voice, "I will not be lost …"
At this moment, in his eyes, the dense fog locked down the surroundings, and he seemed to be trapped in a cage. His mind was immersed in the Sea of Reincarnation, but he could only see a segment of the Vein of the Heavens. He did not know where he should go.
The misfortune of being lost was known as a test of life and death, and it was not a lie. Many geniuses would mention this stage when they looked back.
Ye Fan was really in danger. His five senses became more and more numb, and his spiritual sense was about to disappear. His entire body seemed to be sealed, and he could not hear or see … He was like a deaf or a blind person.
"Ask my heart, where is the Nirvana Realm?"
Ye Fan was not afraid, and he did not panic. His heart was very calm. He seriously thought about what he had learned, and he tried his best to look at the fog, wanting to see through it.
"Nirvana Realm, Nirvana Realm, repent and be saved?" He kept asking himself, "The path of cultivation is long and tortuous. How can I turn back? How can I turn back? I have to move forward bravely."
The fog was still sealed, and his five senses became more and more numb. He felt that he was about to lose all his spiritual sense, and this was a danger he had never experienced before. He might stop here and become a cripple.
"According to records, the greater the potential, the harder it is to break free from the misfortune of being lost. I am not discouraged, and I should rejoice."
Ye Fan was still calm, and he did not panic. Instead, he felt even more confident.
In the blink of an eye, another half a month passed, and he still did not walk out of the fog.
Time passed slowly, and for two whole months, Ye Fan was experiencing the misfortune of being lost. When his five senses were completely taken away, he could not sense anything.
"Nirvana Realm, Nirvana Realm, not the opposite shore. Why do I need to search? Wherever I go, it will be there. Where I stand, it is the nirvana Realm," said Ye Fan calmly.
"Rumble!"
The fog rolled and quickly dissipated. The world became clear, and everything was in front of him.
In just an instant, the fog dissipated, and his five senses recovered. They were better than before, and they were incomparably sharp. A mysterious light enveloped his body as if he was receiving a baptism.
He had passed the test of life and death, and had broken free from the misfortune of being lost. His instincts were being baptized, and his spiritual sense rushed out like a waterfall. The range he could sense became wider, and his body and mind seemed to have been tempered.
Ye Fan immersed his mind into the Sea of Reincarnation. At this moment, the Heavenly Vein became thicker and clearer, and it was like a purple-gold bridge in the sea that led to an unknown place.
He stepped onto the bridge and walked forward. Just as he said, wherever he went, there was the Nirvana Realm. He crossed the sea.
The Heavenly Vein shone brightly. He crossed the sea of bitterness and came to the end. This was a pure land filled with clouds and mist. In the sky, he could vaguely see a huge Taoist Palace.
The white clouds blocked his vision, and the Taoist Palace disappeared. He could no longer capture it, but Ye Fan did not feel it was a pity. He had just reached the Nirvana Realm and had not completed it. How could he enter the secret realm of the Taoist Palace?
The legendary Taoist Palace corresponded to the thoracic region of the human body. There were five gods there, and when one cultivated in this secret realm, all sorts of strange things would happen.
As long as the Goddess of Grains did not die, it would be called Xuan Pin. The Gate of Xuan Pin was the root of heaven and earth.
The five gods gave birth to the five elements, and the Five Qi was clear. It was connected to heaven and earth, and it was endless. It could give birth to the power of Dao.
After reaching the Nirvana Realm, he felt the changes in his body. His essence, Qi, and spirit rose, and his divine power surged. The Sea of Bitterness expanded to the size of a palm, and the waves sparkled brightly.
He felt that he could shatter the sky with one palm and crack the earth with one foot. This was a strange illusion after becoming stronger.
He did not move, but he held the fist-sized origin in his hand and began to slowly refine it. He needed to consolidate this realm.
He did not expect to reach the Nirvana Realm and undergo a metamorphosis like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon. That was unrealistic. After all, he had just reached this realm.
The fist-sized origin was pure and flawless. It was overflowing with colors and contained an unimaginable majestic Qi of Essence. Ye Fan refined it for half a day and finally finished absorbing it.
After that, he was silent for another ten days before he finally woke up completely and completed this cultivation.
"This is …" At this moment, Ye Fan was shocked when he looked at the Sea of Reincarnation.
The golden Sea of Bitterness was sparkling. He felt that there was something more. On the surface of the sea, it was full of vitality and there was green.
"What is that?"
Ye Fan was dumbfounded. There was a strange plant growing in the golden sea. It was faintly discernible like a green lotus, and there was a chaotic mist lingering around it!
"How could this be?" He was very shocked and did not know why such a change would happen.
When he inadvertently raised his head, he was stunned again. The sky above the Sea of Reincarnation was no longer misty and empty. It was blue like the sky.
Ye Fan was really shocked. After reaching the Nirvana Realm, a series of changes actually happened.
"The sky … green lotus … Is my anomaly going to appear?" He found it hard to calm down, and then he said to himself, "No, this is just the initial evolution of the Sea of Reincarnation. It can't be considered an anomaly!"
