"The path chosen in the dream is neither the stars nor the fire, this is..."
Wu Wang muttered in his heart, instinctively wanting to ask his mother through the necklace on his neck, but then he felt that he should be independent and not rely too much on his mother.
Moreover, although his mother is an expert in the Star-Praying Technique, she is not familiar with the path of cultivation.
The Lingtai is the dwelling place of the divine soul, not real but illusory, it is the heart, the knowledge, the reason, the soul, the path, and the law, the extension of the heart.
Cultivators in the Human Realm generally believe that the Lingtai is located in the back, it is the place where the 'spirit, energy, and soul' are entrusted.
As cultivation progresses, the Lingtai will also evolve and various anomalies will appear, eventually opening up into an Immortal Mansion to nourish the primordial spirit.
Wu Wang was about to introspect himself, but his consciousness turned to the Elemental Infant in the Lingtai.
The originally hazy Lingtai suddenly transformed into an Immortal Mansion, with a small figure sitting inside, somewhere between reality and illusion.
It seemed that he was that small figure, the embodiment of his consciousness, perfectly integrated with his body, without any gap.
This is the Elemental Infant, and also the first sublimation of Wu Wang's 'divine' power.
At this moment, the Immortal Mansion was still in its early form, and it appeared somewhat ethereal in various places.
The Yan Emperor's command quietly floated in front of the Elemental Infant, emitting strands of profound and mysterious aura, as if guiding the Elemental Infant forward.
However, Wu Wang's Elemental Infant was enveloped in a colorful radiance, rejecting the aura of the Yan Emperor's command and instead connecting with it, keeping the command stable in place.
He had not noticed it before, but now if he carefully sensed it, Wu Wang found that the Yan Emperor's command itself was a precious treasure.
Being able to constantly transform between reality and illusion was already quite extraordinary.
A thought arose in Wu Wang's mind, and through the Elemental Infant, he sensed the surrounding world. The heavens and earth became extremely clear, and his vision suddenly became vast.
He could see the towering mountains and the vast wilderness.
Outside the attic, the figures of several elders who were discussing something were clearly projected into his mind. The enchanting Elder Qian appeared even more charming, with delicate skin that seemed to have no pores.
The roots of the blood-colored long hair of the Great Elder still had traces of gray...
Wu Wang:...
I wonder if your cool and awesome blood-colored hair is dyed? Is it specifically used to scare children when giving lectures?
Looking at the Golden Elixir in his body, there were countless anomalies.
The Golden Elixir is formed by the convergence of 'spirit, energy, and soul', and only then can it condense into the foundation of becoming an immortal. But because Wu Wang crossed realms and directly surpassed the Golden Elixir and Spiritual Tranquility realms, his Golden Elixir was already quite mature.
Looking at his lower abdomen, there was an 'ocean' swirling like a spiral galaxy, mixed with endless starlight, with a constantly flickering flame in the center.
Below the flame was his own Golden Elixir, but this Golden Elixir...
Something was wrong.
Wu Wang had read many books about cultivation in the Golden Elixir realm before, and he knew that a normal Golden Elixir should be stable and solid, the foundation of the Dao, containing one's own path.
When becoming an immortal, it is to release this Dao and perfectly integrate it with oneself.
For cultivators before the Elemental Infant realm, they would manipulate their breath and comprehend the heavens and earth through this Golden Elixir.
For cultivators after the Elemental Infant realm, the Elemental Infant becomes the 'commander-in-chief' of the body, and the role of the Golden Elixir is to stabilize the Qi Sea, follow the commands of the Elemental Infant, and nourish the Dao.
Of course, it can also be used to explode in battles.
Exploding the Golden Elixir is a self-destruction of the foundation of the Dao, and the explosion effect is not too strong. Exploding the Elemental Infant and the Golden Elixir together is a direct self-detonation, which can produce magnificent scenes like mushroom clouds.
The scene would be quite spectacular.
Speaking of Wu Wang's Golden Elixir at this moment, it was rejecting both the star and the flame.
A typical Golden Elixir is shaped like a pill, with sizes ranging from mung bean and jujube pit to red date and longan, all of which have records.
Perhaps due to the influence of the Star-Praying Technique, Wu Wang's Golden Elixir was actually a silver-white fluid, spherical in shape, enveloped by a flame.
With a slight movement of his mind, the flame completely enveloped the silver-white Golden Elixir, revealing his own aura as the path of fire.
With another thought, the small figure of the Elemental Infant raised its hand, and the 'spiral galaxy' revolving around the Golden Elixir shimmered with brilliant light. He could even clearly sense the many stars in the starry sky.
A faint golden light appeared all over Wu Wang's body, and scales were about to appear.
He quickly stopped his cultivation and returned the power of the stars to tranquility, allowing the path of fire to take the initiative again.
With a gentle slide of his finger forward, a bright light bloomed from his fingertip, instantly shattering the protective barrier of his mana that he had just erected, and the vast and boundless aura inside his body surged.
A feeling of grasping the universe suddenly emerged!
Wu Wang:...
Don't be arrogant, don't be conceited. He was only in the Elemental Infant realm, and there were countless experts in the Human Realm who were stronger than him.
But Wu Wang could clearly feel that there was an indescribable power hidden within him, and there was always a feeling of discomfort that couldn't be vented.
At this stage of cultivation, what was his actual strength?
Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy leads to a hundred victories. If he couldn't understand his own strength, it would be easy to make mistakes in estimating his enemies.
And it would also be easy...
"Young Master?"
Lin Suqing called softly from the side, "Do you still want tea?"Wu Wang raised his hand and gently flicked the teacup, causing it to fly out and smash into the wooden pillar of the attic, shattering into pieces.
Easily injuring his own people.
"Ying."
Lin Suqing pouted her lips, turned her head, and her eyes gradually darkened:
"Hehehe, just because I mocked you a few times, you had to retaliate like this?"
Wu Wang chuckled lightly, "It was you who inspired me, leading me to unknowingly embark on this path, without making a choice on the previous two paths."
"What path are you cultivating, Young Master?"
"My path, it's my own path... Take a look at this."
Wu Wang raised his hand and drew a virtual line, strands of aura bloomed from his fingertips, forming a majestic character.
Lin Suqing subconsciously looked at the character, as if she was deeply immersed in it, staring at it with a serious expression.
"Comprehend it well."
Wu Wang said in a gentle voice, then got up and walked to the side, put on a pair of pants, and found a matching pair of boots. He walked out with his hair loose.
When he turned around, Lin Suqing was already sitting in front of the character, her little face filled with seriousness.
Wu Wang nodded in satisfaction, walked out of the formation, and called out to the Great Elder.
He wanted to spar with the Great Elder to determine his strength after "Golden Dragon Transformation" and let the Great Elder put some pressure on him to help him stay alert and not become arrogant.
After Wu Wang left the attic for a while, Lin Suqing suddenly realized something, got up, and sat down in Wu Wang's original seat, letting out a sigh of relief.
"That's more like it."
She had been reading it the wrong way just now, and even wondered if the character "dao" had something to do with demons...
She would take a nap here later, and maybe she could break through a few levels.
Plan, approved!
...
The spiritual energy that was taken away by Wu Wang had returned to normal levels in just half a day.
But Wu Wang's breakthrough in his dream had obviously greatly shocked the entire Mie Tian Hei Yun Feng Da Mo Zong.
Let's not talk about things that were beneficial to the image of the sect master for now.
Just talking about what happened in the half month after Wu Wang's breakthrough in his dream, a large number of demonic cultivators did nothing and just found a comfortable place to lie down...
Fall asleep!
They slept on tree branches, on mountain mists, on earth veins, and on cliffs, trying to gain insights and assist in their cultivation in their dreams.
For a while, sleep aids became popular in the sect.
Because the cultivation partners chose to sleep together instead of meditating individually, within just half a month, seven or eight female demonic cultivators announced good news, which could be considered a double joy.
Really, it was just a little bit more, and Wu Wang was about to change the name of Mie Tian Hei Yun Feng Da Mo Zong to...
The Sect of Everything in Dreams.
Was his breakthrough because he fell asleep?
Indeed.
Afterward, he carefully pondered and realized that it was indeed because he fell asleep. With his mind relaxed and in harmony with heaven and earth, coupled with his accumulated cultivation and the eruption of his Star God bloodline, he was able to step into the Elemental Infant stage.
That was not a dream, but rather entering a state of forgetting oneself and the world, merging his soul with the Great Dao, and giving birth to his own path from his soul.
This path had no name, but it could be called heaven and earth, or one's true self.
Wu Wang did not impose any name restrictions on his path, and his future path was already very clear.
As the saying goes, profound and mysterious, the door to all wonders.
He was now standing inside the "door".
Moreover, in the subsequent sparring sessions with the Great Elder, Wu Wang quickly discovered many unusual things.
For a cultivator in the Elemental Infant stage, Wu Wang's divine sense was too powerful, and his divine sense displayed various divine abilities, enhancing his perception, strengthening his physical body, and directly manipulating the spiritual energy within a radius of hundreds of miles.
The Great Elder secretly left the sect with Wu Wang and found a desolate dead mountain. The Great Elder set up a barrier to isolate any probing.
This was one of the benefits of the exposure of the Golden Dragon Transformation. The Great Elder willingly acted as a sparring partner and believed that this kind of sparring was a great contribution to the Human Realm.
Wu Wang tested his strength after transforming.
Of course, he didn't go and scratch the Great Elder, he simply tested his physical strength.
With one punch, half of a mountain ridge shattered, and the barrier set up by the Great Elder was broken through six layers.
The Great Elder almost used half of his mana and set up layer after layer of barriers, isolating the spiritual energy outside.
Wu Wang tried to run back and forth, trying to adapt to this kind of power. After half an hour of struggling, his body felt deeply tired. He immediately stopped and took a pill to restore his energy and spirit.
Indeed, transforming into a golden dragon consumed a lot of energy.
But before his energy was completely depleted, he could dispel the transformation and wouldn't fall into a state of powerlessness.
The Great Elder sighed repeatedly and said that with Wu Wang's transformation, he could already fight against a peak True Immortal in terms of physical strength, and he would probably not lose to the opponent.
Wu Wang automatically lowered his evaluation to the mid-stage of the True Immortal realm in terms of physical strength.
[The improvement in the Dao realm does not have much impact on the strength of the transformation.]
Obviously, if he wanted to obtain stronger transformation abilities, he needed to explore from the perspective of "non-cultivation".
Wu Wang meditated for several days and nights before finally dispelling his fatigue.

The Great Elder had been guarding him all this time, and the way he looked at Wu Wang was like looking at his own nephew, with a renewed vigor.Wu Wang tried several times to use the transformation without the power of the Elemental Infant realm, and the effect of using the transformation to activate the technique was not satisfactory.
The Dao realm is the Dao realm;
The power of the Star God bloodline is the power of the Star God bloodline.
The two are distinct and difficult to produce a 'linked' effect.
Regarding this, the Great Elder comforted, "Sect Master, don't be disappointed because of this. Such a transformation technique is unheard of. After you become an immortal, continue to temper your body, and you will gain even greater strength."
"Does the Great Elder mean that if I take the path of body cultivation, it will have a positive effect on my transformation?"
"Sect Master is truly wise."
"In that case," Wu Wang pondered for a moment, "After the banquet at Ren Emperor Pavilion, I will need to find some body cultivation techniques to practice."
The Great Elder nodded with a smile upon hearing this.
"Sect Master, when shall we set off?"
"Wait for me to gather my breath," Wu Wang said, "I can't let people see my flaws when I go to Ren Emperor Pavilion. I need the Great Elder to help me find some treasures to hide my breath, the more the better.
I will take care of all the expenses for this matter."
"Yes, Sect Master."
The Great Elder agreed very simply, without mentioning anything about the 'sect paying' and such.
However, Wu Wang had not truly revealed all his strength...
With the transformation sensing the starry sky and using the Star-Praying Technique, it seemed that the power had increased a lot.
Looking at the Yan Emperor's Order floating in his spiritual platform, Wu Wang fell into deep thought again.
Which of his two identities was more dangerous?
The holder of the Yan Emperor's Order? The Little Golden Dragon of the Human Realm?
From the current situation, it was obviously the latter.
Although he felt that the Great Elder and the others were quite reliable, for safety reasons, he must not be careless and must maintain a certain degree of suspicion, observing more in the future.
In this case, this trip to Ren Emperor Pavilion was already necessary.
First, it would let his father-in-law, who had a habit of harming others without benefiting himself, know where he was now, indirectly putting some pressure on the Great Elder and the others.
Second, he wanted to ask Shen Nong!
Why did he write a poem for him without his consent?
And it was about shaking the Heavenly Palace and subduing the hundred clans, wasn't this putting him on the fire?
If one day his identity as the Little Golden Dragon of the Human Realm was exposed and the news spread back to the North Wilderness, wouldn't it be easy to leave a 'clan stain'?
The Emperor's vision was too small.
To fight against the gods, more friends and fewer enemies must be made. Everyone was seeking survival, and the goal was very unified.
"Sect Master," the Great Elder, who was meditating nearby, reminded, "On this trip to Ren Emperor Pavilion, the Sect Master should try not to attract attention. There is no need to bring followers. The two of us can sneak over.
If we meet acquaintances, I will take the liberty to claim to be the Sect Master's master, how about that?"
Wu Wang thought carefully for a while, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
"No, this time going to Ren Emperor Pavilion, we must not be too low-key. On the contrary, we have to be high-profile."
Wu Wang said solemnly, "A Sect Master of the Hundred Great Demon Sects in the Elemental Infant realm is already extremely curious to people. The more low-key and deep, the more suspicious they will be, and there is a 90% chance of being targeted by the Ten Calamities Palace.
On the contrary, I want to show the appearance of a prodigal second-generation ancestor, so that people mistakenly think that my position as Sect Master is due to the favor of my parents, and I have no talent or virtue.
In this way, it is better to protect myself."
As he spoke, Wu Wang looked at the Great Elder, who was slowly nodding his head, and showed a faint smile. He took out a bracelet and handed it to the Great Elder with his mana.
"Elder, take these and spend them as you please. This trip should be extravagant, vulgar, and superficial!"
"Sect Master," the Great Elder whispered, "What if the Emperor doesn't like you like this..."
Wu Wang smiled faintly.
He was already looking forward to the appearance of meeting the old predecessor.
Father-in-law, don't let your hand tremble when you pour the wine.
"Tsk."
...
"Hmm?"
In a secluded forest, an old man with bare feet and wearing a straw cloak looked at the calm river in front of him and rubbed his nose.
At this level, he could already sense the unknown.
Was that Little Golden Dragon thinking about his daughter again?
The old man smiled slightly, and a ripple appeared on the river in front of him, revealing a blurry picture.
It was a treasure pool filled with immortal light, and a round ball with a faint golden glow was quietly suspended in the pool;
Around the ball sat more than a dozen old women in white clothes, each with an incredibly powerful aura.
There was no need to worry about it. His precious daughter would be born in at least forty-eight years.
Forty-eight years, it's not too much to ask to become an immortal, right? Is this requirement too high?
Young people nowadays are restless and don't know how to cultivate steadily.
"Your Majesty," a figure emerged from the river, "The patrolling immortal envoy Mao Aowu, who gave the three strategies to stabilize the sea, has been brought here."
"Alright, he is a promising talent. Let him come and have a casual meal with me."
"Your subordinate obeys."
