271 Chapter 260 - New heights!
After collecting the Blood Crystal, Caelum created pills fusing a few ingredients from his treasury to gain more potent fills that gain Pill veins and Cloud.
A soul of a person was a vital point in creating a feel as it allowed them to precisely control the temperature of their flames to remove impurities of an ingredient creating higher quality pills from low-grade herbs.
He did not lack any of him even more after reaching the 9th Heavenly Fate realm bringing out the power of his Primeval Dao Flames containing the highest Dao and Law of flames.
Giving out the pills to his two companions before forming a vortex from using his Devouring. Over a dozen pills were sucked into the swirling darkness and instantly went into Caelum Soul realm enveloping his whole Physical Soul in red steam.
The newly integrated Demon spirit within his soul realm started to rise through their ranks, gradually reaching the same rank as himself, flaring his body in endless energy.
A perfect balance between himself and the martial spirit let him bring out their strength even without transforming.
After cultivating for a moment they began to head their way in the open finding a few Scarlet ghosts in the way.
In an instant, Caelum lazily evades an attack, turning to the perpetrator, finding a creature similar to a frog strengthening its numerous tentacle tongues. This demon beast was called the Netherlamp behemoth.
He menacingly smirked then slaughtered the creature then turned it into a pill that was able to turn someone into black gold!
"Hmm!? You dare steal from me!"
From above a creature nearly two kilometers in size hovers above them. The cultivation base was unknown however Caelum jumped using his Dao of Slaughter.
He clenched his fist causing a shockwave that decimated the flesh of the Demon beast traveling through his entire body leaving only a chunk for Caelum to grab and descend.
"Powerful! It's a pity that he had not felt that much struggle."
Nuwa observed Caelum who cultivated the Dao of Slaughter that needed to push themselves in the body turning themselves into a terrifying tyrant. He was the only one who had reached this terrifying degree despite the lack of struggle.
"Well, I hadn't found any worthy of an opponent beside you. It feels nice to struggle since it is where you feel the most satisfaction of knowing you achieve it with your own hands."
He walked back to them while dragging the remaining humongous chunk of flesh before storing it into his treasury.
Caelum wanted to return himself to the beginning where he could feel his battle tendency reawaken where his flesh struggled and defeated his enemy despite the odds.
In the beginning, he had smooth sailing leaving him unable to be tempered himself in a life or death fight. This of course does not include higher dimensional beings who can one-shot him if he's not careful.
It was his goal to find a world where he can struggle enough and already sense his future despite the thick veil covering it.
"Let's head there, I might be able to find something interesting."
They continued walking until reaching Stelle in the middle of a barren wasteland. It contains numerous written words with a part scratched below.
"Such powerful intent! Did an expert leave this?"
Yu Yan exclaimed as her soul could feel the profound intent contained within the stellar yet unable to comprehend it. Nuwa could only gain a glimpse bewildering her as it only meant this person was able to place an intent for a specific person.
"For someone to place this intent into this stelle would likely be a higher realm expert. He may have built this for a specific person."
Nuwa narrowed her noticing Caelum quietly read the words etched into the stone stele.
"Those who follow me shall be honored. Those who oppose me shall perish."
He read the content slowly to reach the one scratched by someone but was unable to remove the profound meaning.
"Who am I?"
Caelum felt in awe witness an old man in a long robe floating in the air untouched from below. He could feel the deep meaning and insight content by the scenery already began to affect his soul.
"What is Dao?"
Hearing his words made him wonder as he already comprehends nearly all known Dao in existence yet what is it in its true form.
'A Dao huh….it is a world and self. It is shapeless and formless yet boundless and endless. This is everything yet none. A Dao is whatever one comprehends it to be. To find Dao is….to know one self. The path wants to pursue is their own Dao and those who true to themselves shall transcend!"
After his insight grew exponentially, The sound opening gate was heard causing an ocean of energy to flood into his Soul realm. He was able to unlock his potential allowed him to break through his shackles.
Boom!
9th Heavenly Star Realm!
Without halting for a second absorbed more energy being greedily taken by his Temporal Vine having more flower petal in the beaches that connect his Martial Spirit.
While circulating the energy in his body spreading it evenly erasing any flaws from his body, the old man continued.
"Infinity has no beginning, no beginning can have no end."
An explosion causes his two women to back away as Caelum Physical Soul morphs, growing shocking Nuwa. Cawlum struggled to contain himself despite his Essence of Compatible and Blank.
'Dammit it too strong and I already comprehend endlessness and infinity yet why? Is there something I'm missing?'
He was perplexed, unable to understand how he was able to grow from the words containing Law of infinity but knew there was more to it.
"Infinity has no beginning, no beginning can have no end."
Caelum gets closer while breaking through the realm left and right. The bursting energy causes the whole Abyss prison to shake violently.
"Infinity has an end...a circle cannot form without a beginning….it cannot form without...having an Origin!"
It produces yet another vast ocean of energy letting his temporal Vine grow and it did not stop, starting to temper his Soul.
Caelum regained his true body containing his empyrean God Divine body and Supreme Body Refinement that felt being hammered by the Primordial Chaos Qi tempering his every skin, blood, flesh, and bone.
Then his law joined in connecting his soul into his body letting his body be covered in the profound inscription. The Bloodline statue returned to his Sea of Consciousness before shattering, turning themselves into real creatures but more powerful containing all his laws and innate talent.
They disappeared then appeared in another Dantian below the other two Dantian containing all the energy that he had accumulated.

Dao Of Dragon
Every single Fate Soul that he condenses became one and each star along with their axis merged into one single fate soul strengthening them to a terrifying degree.
Spending more years deepening his understanding in Origin understanding himself even further. He endlessly devoured the boundless energy in the intent of expanding his insight.

Martial Ancestor!
When someone reaches the Martial Ancestor their body shed then merges with his soul increasing their strength that it was nearly incomparable to a Dao of Dragon. They are capable of fully utilizing their Soul without the handicap of their fleshly body.
The only flaw in becoming a martial ancestor is once they are killed their soul would forever cease to exist, never allowing them to return to the samsara wheel.
Yet Caelum passed that only caused this soul to grow to solidify the connection of his Body, Soul, Mind, Energy, and Inner world.
They compliment them with one another making Caelum bring out his prowess to the fullest when needed.
It didn't take long for his cultivation base to reach his peak of Martial Ancestor stopping.
'Oh, finally I have my Sacred Blood and Physique again! I could finally do my ratio of four each.'
His real body reaches the peak of Empyrean God having the prowess of low to middle True God in Apotheosis Verse. The flowing of blood was different from being only a Soul unable to make feel his flesh.
The Supreme Refinement Body had reached the First grade Supreme Primordial Chaos treasure capable of contending with a Saint In Apotheosis verse.
"Amazing you're an Empyrean God yet have the power to contend with a True God!"
Nuwa and Yu Yan come close then flinch seeing his appearance grow into an adult with more a devilish face than before making them affected by his looks. However, they had full control over their heart and shook their heads.
"You were able to comprehend the word contained in the stelle!?" (Yu Yan).
