I Only Marry Widows-Chapter 421 - 74: Tao Transformation, Spiritual Cultivation, Divine Court Grand Trial

Chapter 421: Chapter 74: Tao Transformation, Spiritual Cultivation, Divine Court Grand Trial

On the Five Elements Mountain, within the Qitian Hall.

Ever since the changes in the Hidden Dragon Cave Heaven, the five great mountains converged into one, and Lu Chengfeng built Qitian Hall on the Five Elements Mountain.

Being on the mountain is akin to being an immortal.

An Immortal is a person closer to Heaven.

By naming the hall Qitian, Lu Chengfeng’s ambition is clear.

The hall is draped with red silk, festive candles burn brightly, and the decorations are extremely jubilant.

Su Wanqing, dressed in a brilliant red wedding gown with a phoenix crown and brocade, her clear and elegant face was captivating.

Although there were no honored guests or matchmakers, her beloved set up this bridal chamber for her, still making her feel both shy and joyful.

"Wanqing, now circumstances have changed, there are no honored guests, no parents to witness, it has wronged you." Lu Chengfeng, also in a bright red wedding robe, walked up to the beautiful lady.

"I’m not wronged, as long as you have me in your heart, that’s enough." Su Wanqing gazed at him steadily, with unspeakable joy and contentment in her heart.

Lu Chengfeng took the fair maiden’s delicate hand and said, "Although it’s only us two, we still need to worship Heaven and Earth, to complete the ceremony."

Su Wanqing nodded, letting him lead her.

First bow to Heaven and Earth, second bow to the parents, husband and wife bow to each other.

After the third bow, Su Wanqing had an indescribable feeling in her heart, as if from this moment on, she had become a wife.

Although the parents were not present, and the guests were completely absent, from this moment on, they were husband and wife.

"My lady, next, we shall enter the bridal chamber."

Su Wanqing’s pretty face blushed slightly, and she softly murmured assent.

Lu Chengfeng knew she was shy, and wasn’t in any rush, for they had a long future to gradually explore together.

He picked up the beauty by the waist, walked into the bridal chamber that had been arranged long before, with a jade couch, drapes, burning candles, and a beauty shedding tears.

Accompanied by a cry of pain, a crimson blossomed.

Su Wanqing tightly embraced the man’s bare waist, "Husband, I am finally your woman."

Lu Chengfeng, feeling her passion and gentleness, whispered by her ear, "Good girl, this is just the beginning!"

The night was short in the hall, the beauty’s tears were wet.

After a night of intimacy, the indifferent and aloof aura on Lu Chengfeng, reminiscent of Heaven, faded quite a bit.

Su Wanqing, newly experiencing the red pill, slept soundly in his arms with tear stains at the corners of her eyes, while Lu Chengfeng was not at peace.

Ever since refining a Golden Lotus gifted by talent, cultivating the Great Sun Primordial Spirit, and practicing the Time Divine Techniques, his cultivation has been advancing rapidly, with divine techniques that are unfathomable.

Yet, upon facing the last step to ascend to the Immortal Realm, Lu Chengfeng hesitated.

This step posed no bottleneck or threshold for him; the Great Sun True Form contained the mysteries of the Gifted Golden Flame and Time Law, almost akin to a natural Lifebound Divine Technique, almost identical to a Tao Embryo when united with the Primordial Spirit.

Lu Chengfeng was at the peak of the Celestial Human Realm in mana, Primordial Spirit, and divine techniques, requiring only to communicate with the Heavenly Dao using the Primordial Spirit, to baptize the Primordial Spirit with the Heavenly Dao Law conforming to himself, turning the Primordial Spirit entirely into a Tao Embryo to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

This step is what known as the Path of Divine Power.

If he wished, he could communicate with the Heavenly Dao with just a thought, to baptize the Primordial Spirit, and completely step into the Immortal Realm.

But Lu Chengfeng voluntarily stopped more than a month ago, constantly cultivating other divine techniques and magic, comprehending the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Demon Spirit Divine Transformation Scripture and the Clear Wind and Bright Moon Map and other Wonderful Techniques.

This was not to solidify his foundation or enrich his essence, but...

He dared not!

As his cultivation strength grew, Lu Chengfeng increasingly understood the vastness of the Heavenly Dao and the mystery of Creation.

The Heavens are not benevolent, treating all things as straw dogs.

The Heavenly Dao is devoid of emotion, operating according to the Law since the beginning of time, be it the rise and fall of the sun, the rotation of the seasons, or all living things, Immortals, and Buddhas, all within the Heavenly Dao.

Immortals are closer to Heaven because they can borrow the power of Heaven and Earth, possessing supreme power.

But this does not come without a cost.

The cost is Tao Transformation.

Lu Chengfeng, without a master to guide him, relied on gifted talent throughout his journey, and only occasionally encountered the term Tao Transformation in some unofficial records.

In all mythological legends, Immortals are either aloof and indifferent or have even more distinct emotions and desires than ordinary mortals. Some Immortals are irritable and angry, some are compassionate, some love to play among humans, some are greedy, some are belligerent...

Those legendary Immortals seemed even lesser than ordinary mortals.

After all, many cultivators, and even those powerful figures in the temples, can restrain their emotions to an awe-inspiring extent.

But those Immortals seemed even lesser than mortals.

Lu Chengfeng once thought those were merely the imagination of mortals toward Immortals, hence many inaccuracies.

But only when he truly stood at the doorstep of the Immortal Realm did he understand the profoundness and danger within.

Immortals are closer to the Heavenly Dao, yet no matter how powerful an Immortal is, they are still human; facing the vast Great Tao that spans ancient and future times, inevitably affected.

From the Path of Divine Power onward, Immortals can use the Tao Embryo to wield the power of Heaven and Earth, but the Great Tao of Heaven and Earth also subtly influences through the Tao Embryo, becoming increasingly indifferent, eventually losing all emotions and desires, like a puppet.

In the end, the Tao Embryo and Immortal Body are entirely assimilated by Heaven and Earth, becoming part of the Great Tao of Heaven and Earth.
