Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#956 - The mortal immortal?

As Liang Yue's words fell, the clone that had just appeared didn't hesitate at all. With a flash of its figure, both the wisp of divided soul and the physical body of the Destroyer merged entirely into the massive main body that now spanned hundreds of millions of miles.

The next moment, as a faint ripple spread from Liang Yue's oversized body, his entire being became even more real and complete.

The verdant giant tree behind him, seemingly crafted entirely from gold and jade, also began to change at this moment.

Its originally lush branches began to grow rapidly, extending in all directions, while its strong yet supple and enormous root system suddenly plunged into the depths of the void, ceaselessly drawing nourishment and energy from unknown places.

In a daze, on the lush branches of this giant tree, at the ends of nine thick branches, surrounded and guarded by countless green leaves, a massive amount of pure energy gathered.

In an instant, nine dazzling points of light formed on the flourishing parts of these nine robust branches.

Just a few seconds later, the points of light transformed into spheres of light, generally bright white, but each of the nine spheres had its own distinct hue.

Immediately afterward, as energy continued to pour in, each sphere of light suddenly divided into three, three into nine, nine into twenty-seven...

Subsequently, a large number of radiant starlike spheres gathered and formed, becoming more and more numerous, and more and more dense.

During this process, countless energy substances, and even unknown solidified matter, were extracted from the void by the giant tree.

As time passed, vast nebulae eventually evolved on these nine branches.

The countless spheres of light, in groups and teams, intertwined and attracted each other, and then began to rotate rapidly.

Countless solidified void materials were also mixed in, instantly divided into several portions, attached to the ends, and, with the many spheres of light as the center, were similarly drawn and rotated rapidly.

They seemed like insignificant dust, but upon closer inspection, one could glean a great deal of complex and intricate content from them.

An indescribable power of greatness began to be born in this process.

It went from nothing to something, from ethereal and vague, seemingly there and not there, to boundless and immeasurable, profound and unpredictable!

As if the heavens and earth were being created, various profound and obscure law fluctuations surged and radiated out at this moment, rapidly spreading to the entire giant tree.

During this process, a large amount of life force was generated in these nine nebulae, like natural fountains of life, drawing energy from the giant tree's branches while also constantly feeding back various beneficial substances, nourishing the giant tree's main body.

At this moment, an understanding suddenly arose in Liang Yue's heart.

As if blessed by inspiration, in just a split second, in a flash, many of the obscure, difficult to understand, and unattainable constraints in the Great Dao of Life that he originally cultivated suddenly became clear.

However, it wasn't just the Great Dao of Life; countless complex pieces of knowledge were mixed in, and at this moment, they were all gathered and integrated from the various branches and veins of the giant tree, and finally poured into Liang Yue's mind and sea of consciousness!

The infusion of this massive flow of information made it difficult for even Liang Yue at this moment to cope. The familiar pain and discomfort caused him to unconsciously narrow his eyes, and he had to bring out his full focus to deal with it.

At the same time, a halo radiating infinite vitality and boundless life force appeared behind Liang Yue's head in that instant, gradually manifesting from weak to brilliant, as if the Great Dao was crowning him.

It was a slightly uncoordinated Wheel of Life, conforming to Liang Yue's own mana attributes, with the inside of the halo presenting a brilliant and glorious golden-purple color.

But what this halo shone and emitted was a verdant, cyan-green radiance full of vibrant life.

At the moment when this halo appeared, Liang Yue's body, which had already solidified to hundreds of millions of miles, also changed accordingly.

His body of mana, already at the pinnacle of the mortal realm and containing a powerful life force, was once again sublimated silently at this moment!

This was not just an ordinary level promotion, but a fundamental, essential leap beyond the limit!

In just a few breaths, the vast sea of golden-purple mana within Liang Yue's body completed this entire sublimation process, at an unbelievably fast efficiency!

This showed that this was not an upgrade triggered by some external substance; the source of everything came from Liang Yue himself!

Or rather, Liang Yue used the evolution and self-derivation of the giant tree Dao fruit behind him to drive his entire being to leap to the limit at this moment.

At this juncture when he was about to begin contending with the Immortal Tribulation, before the Immortal Tribulation had even descended, his Dao fruit had advanced, and his mana had completed its own sublimation.

Affected by this, the dantian small world in Liang Yue's body, which was used to carry his own giant tree Dao fruit, also ushered in a round of rapid expansion.

During this process, the earth in the small world began to thicken continuously, the sky was infinitely rising, and the area, which was originally roughly equivalent to Liang Yue's current true form, with a territory of hundreds of millions of miles, also expanded geometrically outwards.

The carrying capacity and information processing speed, which had almost reached his own limit, directly completed an upgrade at this moment, and everything began to become more and more comfortable again.

At the same time, endless vitality poured out from Liang Yue's absolutely strong body in an instant. In an instant, his blood soared, his life force surged, and the vigorous power of creation surged like a tide!

At this moment, every cell in his body was cheering and devouring to its heart's content!

Originally, in Liang Yue's perception, his physical body, which had been strengthened and enhanced to the pinnacle of the mortal realm, ushered in another hearty improvement at this moment.

Endless vitality emerged from the smallest parts of his body, as if opening one portal after another connecting to unknown places within his body.

This degree of strengthening and sublimation had far exceeded Liang Yue's expectations, was not within his previous planning path, and was not even within the scope of this promotion brought about by the Dao fruit's evolution.

A chance creation that was outside the plan and ran out on its own...

With the influx of this unfamiliar power, imperceptibly, a kind of vigorous greatness and invisible dominance began to render Liang Yue's entire person somewhat complex and obscure, and there was a bit of disharmony in his entire temperament.

"What is this, a Red Dust Immortal? Sublimation to the utmost in the impossible~"

"However, in this Marvel world, it seems that there is no saying that one cannot become an immortal..."

"In addition, the power behind it should be from the bloodline that has always been sealed, right?"

"This matter is really a bit overwhelming."

In an instant, as his thoughts flashed, Liang Yue curved the corners of his mouth and temporarily suppressed the reverie in his mind.

Feeling the power within him that was still constantly increasing and gushing out, after a little adaptation, he raised his head again and looked at the top of his head, at the huge face composed of thunder and tribulation clouds that had been quietly suspended there.

"Rumble~"

The next moment, accompanied by a thunderous sound that seemed to be able to directly penetrate the void, the tribulation clouds covering a range of several light-years began to rotate violently.

Endless energy converged and gathered, and the sound of exploding thunder seemed to resound throughout the entire universe.

Even the giant face above Liang Yue's head, at this moment, after feeling his will, left behind a meaningful smile and then dissipated.

And with the fading of this face, a stern and upright will instantly merged into the thick tribulation clouds above.

Immediately afterward, endless thunder power began to rapidly converge from the surrounding tribulation clouds, and the originally pitch-black universe seemed to be lit up at this moment.

In an instant, an eye of thunder tribulation appeared at the very center of this tribulation cloud, enveloping Liang Yue, who was still maintaining his true body of hundreds of millions of miles, within it.

Along with the continuous accumulation of thunder power within the tribulation eye, the void barrier inside suddenly cracked, and with a bang, it was finally broken open and shattered into countless pieces.

Endless spatial energy began to pour into the thunder tribulation frantically, and there seemed to be a trace of strange and deep colorful light mixed in it.

That power was broad and holy, and its aura was vast. Even though not much poured out from the void cracks, as soon as it appeared, it had already directly solidified the entire surrounding universe.

After a few breaths, even the tribulation clouds, originally measured in light-years, were directly plated with a layer of deep colorful light by this power.

What followed was that the power of the entire thunder immortal tribulation began to skyrocket all the way!

At this moment, even Liang Yue below was shocked by this sudden change, and he felt a little uneasy under the shroud of the colorful tribulation clouds.
