Perfect World: Dream of the Immortal Era

Compared to his original five organs, Heng Jin's current "five organs" are beyond mere transformation—they have undergone a profound sublimation, an ultimate evolution.

The result of this change is a striking surge in Heng Jin's combat power, reaching a level that even astonishes him.

Is the leap from the perfected level of Swallowing Mist to the perfected level of Refining Organs really so exaggerated? He isn't sure.

However, Heng Jin is confident that if he were to encounter a peer from the Imperial Clan, ranked at the level of someone like Qing Wu, he could suppress his opponent without needing a hundred moves.

Yet, the talents among the Imperial Clan vary greatly; not everyone is equally matched. Heng Jin reminds himself deep down—there are always others out there, greater and more powerful.

In the vast river of history, there is never a shortage of extraordinary talents. If each era's exceptional individuals were brought forth, he might not be the most outstanding among them.

At the very least, the creator of the Five Elements Dao Scripture, the King of the Five Elements, achieved the feat of "the five organs forming a unified world," or it wouldn't be described in the scriptures.

After sitting for a while and familiarizing himself slightly with this domain, Heng Jin took out the section of the Luo Mo Ancient Scripture related to the Organ Refining realm, delving into it with focused study.

Though the Five Elements Dao Scripture is immensely powerful, beyond imagination, it was ultimately created by the beings of Dao Gold, not perfectly suited for humans.

While it's unknown what species Luo Mo belonged to, like Heng Jin, he was a being of flesh and blood, ensuring there would be aspects Heng Jin could use for reference.

Indeed, after studying the Luo Mo Ancient Scripture for a time, he identified certain flaws within himself that could lead to problems if left unaddressed.

Perhaps Luo Mo foresaw this, hence the suggestion for Heng Jin to choose between the two ancient scriptures of the Immortal Kings.

Aware of the imperfections in his Organ Refining realm, Heng Jin would not leave them unattended. He immediately used the cultivating environment provided by the Five Elements Dao Furnace, relying on the Luo Mo Ancient Scripture to methodically repair and correct these defects.

The results were remarkable. The world formed by the five nebula clusters became even more profound. He could clearly sense the changes within himself, drawing closer to perfection.

Finally, this realm reached flawless completion, with no more blemishes for Heng Jin at present.

He exhaled deeply and rose from his seated meditation, feeling unprecedented strength at that moment.

Refining with the Five Elements did not only enhance his Dao practice but also strengthened his physical body.

Overall, this session in the Five Elements Dao Furnace brought Heng Jin immense gains, his overall strength witnessing a significant leap.

With the Organ Refining perfected, continuing beyond this point would lead him into the next realm—Consolidating the Spirit. Remaining in the Five Elements Dao Furnace would no longer be particularly beneficial.

Thus, he prepared to leave.

As soon as he stepped forward, the blazing Dao fire beneath the Five Elements Furnace extinguished, and the violent Dao principles within gradually calmed. The lid of the furnace, condensed from the forces of Heaven and Earth, slowly dissipated, returning to the world.

Heng Jin retraced his steps, ascending the stairs one by one, until he finally left the realm of the Five Elements Furnace.

Looking back, his heart was filled with endless emotion. Gu Mo was right; this place had been where he achieved enlightenment, offering tremendous help and fundamentally changing him.

Suddenly, a beam of immortal light shot from afar, transforming into a path that extended beneath his feet.

Without a doubt, this was the handiwork of the Immortal King, intending for him to proceed to the depths of the Five Elements terrain.

Without any hesitation, Heng Jin stepped onto the ancient path formed by the immortal light.

In the blink of an eye, amidst flickering brilliance, he was transported to a grand cavernous abode.

This was the secluded place of the Immortal King of the Five Elements, visited through the ages only by beings of similar magnitude. Heng Jin, as a mortal creature, was the first to come this close.

Ahead, chaos energy was pervasive, and two majestic figures sat cross-legged facing each other, using the void as their chessboard, engaged in an intense game.

Silently and imperceptibly, murderous intent filled the air, the cosmos cracked, and starlit rivers perished. This contest between Immortal Kings was perilous, akin to a deadly battle.

Heng Jin dared not disturb them and waited quietly at a distance.

Before long, the void chessboard lay silent, inch by inch disintegrating; the game concluded with a victor determined.

"Fellow Daoist of the Five Elements, I concede," said one with a hint of magnanimity.

"Hmph, I didn’t expect your skills to advance so quickly," grumbled the King of the Five Elements, feeling a bit embarrassed at losing a match before his esteemed disciple.

Then, both Immortal Kings' gazes turned together towards Heng Jin.

"Excellent. This Organ Refining realm is the strongest and most perfect I've seen," Luo Mo praised, as if admiring a masterpiece.

"Heng Jin greets his two masters," Heng Jin hurriedly saluted the two Immortal Kings.

"To have reached this stage with a human body is truly rare," the Immortal King of the Five Elements commended without stinginess.

In his younger days, he was able to surpass his limits because his essence was Five Elements Dao Gold, granting him innate advantages that other races did not possess.

Heng Jin humbly responded with a few words.

The two great Immortal Kings chuckled lightly. Although Heng Jin was young, he exhibited remarkable composure, remaining calm even in the face of the Immortal Kings' praise. Ordinary beings might have floated up with joy, eager to announce their achievement to the world.

In the ensuing time, Luo Mo remained silent, smiling gently while observing as the Immortal King of the Five Elements comprehensively imparted his ancient scripture.

Previously, Heng Jin had only received the section pertaining to the Visceral Refinement realm. Now, the other sections were imparted one by one in the form of teachings.

With an Immortal King patiently explaining, Heng Jin's understanding of this ancient patriarch-level scripture soared at an astonishing rate.

As its name suggests, this scripture covers all realms within the human Dao, leading directly to the Immortal King, with the Five Elements Great Dao as its core.

When mastered to its utmost, this scripture would allow one to command the Dao of the Five Elements, give birth to True Blood of the Five Elements, and transform into an Immortal King.

Heng Jin had achieved significant accomplishments in the Visceral Refinement realm, earning the praise of the Immortal King of the Five Elements. If he primarily masters the Five Elements Scripture, he will undoubtedly become a formidable ruler in the future.

Whenever he recites the scripture of the Five Elements, his whole being is enveloped in five different lights, appearing solemnly sacred, with the sounds of the scripture resounding, holy and transcendent.

“You truly are well-suited to cultivate my ancient scripture.” The Immortal King of the Five Elements couldn't help but express such admiration.

He originally thought his future disciple would surely be a being formed of Dao Gold. Who would have thought it would be a young human.

“The path ahead requires you to walk it step by step on your own. While my ancient scripture is very compatible with you, after all, the race is different.

The portions I've imparted to you have been personally modified by me, otherwise practicing it would have been too difficult for you.”

Heng Jin nodded, showing great respect to the Immortal King of the Five Elements with a formal disciple’s courtesy.

When he first arrived in this foreign realm, he had encountered the mismatch of race and scripture, which led him to slightly modify portions based on his own understanding of the Great Dao, allowing him to continue practicing, albeit with unavoidable flaws.

Now, this ancient scripture, suitable for the Dao Gold physique, has been personally altered by its creator, an Immortal King, making it possible for a human to cultivate. The effects are naturally far greater than ever before.

When the teachings concluded, Luo Mo stood up, preparing to take Heng Jin back to his own domain.

“In the future, if there are aspects of the scripture you don’t understand, you may come here to seek my guidance at any time. In your leisure, you can also come here for secluded cultivation.

You should know, the number of beings who wish to train in this Five Elements Furnace is countless, and even many from imperial races do not have this blessing.”

Before departing, the King of Five Elements gave solemn advice to Heng Jin. It was evident that he had taken a liking to this recorded disciple of his.

Heng Jin nodded repeatedly, listening attentively.

With the King’s watchful gaze upon them, Luo Mo led Heng Jin away.

How swift is the escape speed of a Supreme Immortal King? Compared to the immortal Gu Mo, they are worlds apart.

In just a moment, they traversed vast territories.

A small black dot expanded in Heng Jin's vision.

It was Black Water City, constructed upon the ancestral land of the Luo clan, known as one of the top ten renowned cities in foreign lands.

Aeons ago, Luo Mo had risen step by step from there to ultimately ascend to the throne of an Immortal King.

They bypassed Black Water City and headed directly to the Luo clan's ancestral land.

Along the way, they skimmed past the mighty War God Academy, a magnificent terrain worshiped by ten thousand dragons. The view was even more stunning from high up, resembling countless true dragon-shaped ridges densely packed, an astonishing sight.

In the next moment, the two descended into an ancient cave residence. This place was extraordinary, with the essence of the Great Dao so dense it became tangible.

On the coarse stone walls of the cave, vivid carvings depicted ancient tales from the past — battles of immortals and various legendary beings engaging in life-and-death struggles, stirring the heart and igniting fervor.

Heng Jin gazed at these carvings and sensed a revelation. The opponent in those legendary battles was none other than his Immortal King mentor, Luo Mo.

He was utterly engrossed, and Luo Mo did not restrain him.

Beyond the carvings was Luo Mo’s seclusion spot. Ordinarily, he sat in meditation here, surrounded by myriad marks — some gentle, others terrifyingly intense.

These imprints, left by Luo Mo during his cultivation of the Dao, meant nothing to him but posed great danger to others; any random trace could easily obliterate an immortal.

“Sit!”

Luo Mo sat down cross-legged, speaking softly.

Heng Jin naturally did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward to sit on a mat.

“I have seen the celestial chart you carry. It is extraordinary, possessing the ability to govern heaven and earth. The terrain you have encountered must be beyond imagination, even commanding respect from Immortal Kings.

In history, there are numerous instances where supreme terrains have accomplished beings, indeed producing many renowned figures. However, terrains like the Dragon and Phoenix Harmony are exceedingly rare, formed under unusually stringent conditions. It's a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. One can only say that your fortune is exceptional.

Witnessing such a supreme terrain involuntarily brings to mind the two powerful clans from the Primitive Ancient Realm. In the future, these two clans might pave your path to the ultimate Dao.”

Luo Mo spoke softly, hinting at something deeper.

Heng Jin, with a clear mind like a mirror, naturally understood what his immortal master was implying.

Just like after the ancient immortal wars, Kun Di's disciple, He Wushuang, roamed the battlefield with the Immortal Refining Gourd, indiscriminately devouring the blood essence of countless races. Were Heng Jin merely from a foreign realm, Luo Mo would advocate for him to claim the fortunes of the True Dragon and True Phoenix clans upon conquering the primal ancient world. This could bring to fruition the supreme celestial diagram behind him.

Little did anyone know, this celestial diagram was born from the baptism of the immortal blood of the True Dragon and True Phoenix.

Yet, it was concealed by Wang Gen's unparalleled methods. As long as Luo Mo did not pry too deeply, it would remain undiscovered.

"Are you referring to the True Dragon and True Phoenix clans, Master?"

"Precisely, those two clans. If you could vanquish their progenitors and infuse their essence into the celestial diagram behind you, achieving the path of an immortal king would be within reach," Luo Mo nodded.

Heng Jin felt a quake within his heart; the notion was extraordinarily bold. Incorporating two immortal king-class beings into a celestial diagram was nothing short of defying the heavens.

However, Heng Jin felt indebted to both the True Dragon and True Phoenix clans, and such thoughts were far from his mind.

"The ancestors of those two clans are formidable rulers, Master. Do not risk anything for my sake. Even without them, I can achieve the path of the king."

"Haha, indeed, I believe that. Although the Five Elements Scripture has been modified for human cultivation, fundamentally, it still best suits a Dao Gold constitution." Luo Mo slightly nodded. "So, regarding the Five Elements Scripture, you should focus on the visceral cultivation portion. For the other stages, use my scriptures."

He then, like the previous Five Elements Immortal King, began to impart upon Heng Jin the mysteries of the ancient scripture.

Having an immortal king personally lecture is an unimaginable blessing. Heng Jin was enraptured, deeply immersed in endless truths of the Great Dao, unable to extricate himself.

The Luo Mo Ancient Scriptures, created by an unparallelled immortal king, truly lived up to their reputation. After studying and comprehending them, areas Heng Jin previously thought complete naturally revealed numerous flaws.

For instance, in the Breathing Qi Realm, the capacity of blood energy particles could be increased. In the Boiling Blood Realm, there are untapped potentials in the blood that can be further excavated. In the Devouring Mist Realm, the mist consumed not only accelerates cultivation speed but also contains more divine powers, possibly giving rise to one's unique Dao and methods, or even a path of the Great Dao.

When Luo Mo finished elucidating the ancient scripture, Heng Jin felt as if a revelation had dawned upon him, gaining greater clarity on his path to cultivation.

"It seems you've grasped the essence of this scripture," Luo Mo said, eyes shining.

"The ancient scriptures devised by Master are profoundly intricate. I dare not claim I've grasped the essence, not by a long shot. However, the insights I have gained are immense. I intend to immediately re-cultivate the first three realms to meticulously amend those flaws and strive for perfection."

"Hmm, go ahead. If there's anything you don't understand, you are welcome to come and ask me anytime. I have arranged for the Luo Clan's ancestral lands to be unrestricted for you, unhindered access," Luo Mo responded.
