“The heart of the ancient tree of life represents the power of life, a special power that is not weaker than the infinite power, and can create the power of immortality!”

Li Yang held the heart of the ancient tree of life tightly, his eyes burning. There were not many things like this that could improve his strength. Now that he had encountered it, he could not miss it. He immediately began to absorb the heart of the tree.

The surging life force rushed into his body through his palm like a raging tsunami, sweeping his whole body in an instant. His body trembled slightly, not out of fear, but because he was deeply shocked by this vast and majestic power. This life force was wild and pure, containing the vitality and vigor of the universe at the beginning, like the most authentic gift of nature. It carried the breath of the universe when it was created, and every surge of power seemed to tell the miracle of the birth of life. It was a shock that could not be described in words, which made Li Yang’s soul tremble.

As the life force continued to pour in, the chaos power and the nine laws in Li Yang’s body resonated with it like plucked strings. The chaos power, which was originally like a surging river, became more and more violent at this moment, as if warmly welcoming the joining of this new partner. Every vibration of it seemed to be communicating with the life force, telling each other’s secrets. The nine laws were also like smart elves, jumping and interweaving happily around the life force. The sharpness of the law of gold, the vitality of the law of wood, the softness of the law of water, the heat of the law of fire, the heaviness of the law of earth, the agility of the law of wind, the violence of the law of thunder, the purity of the law of light, and the depth of the law of darkness collided with the life force to produce wonderful sparks. These forces continued to flow in his body, constructing a gorgeous and mysterious power map. Li Yang felt that his body was like a huge furnace, with various forces constantly merging and tempering in it. Each fusion was accompanied by strong energy fluctuations, which put his body under tremendous pressure, but he gritted his teeth and persisted, his heart full of desire for increased strength.

The force of life was rampaging in Li Yang’s body. At first, he could barely control it, but as the force continued to increase, he gradually became powerless. The force seemed to break through the shackles of his body and pursue his own freedom. Li Yang clenched his teeth, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He concentrated all his energy, mobilized the power of chaos and the power of the nine laws, and tried to tame this wild “horse”. His consciousness was highly concentrated, like looking for light in the darkness. Every time he controlled the power, it was like walking on the edge of a cliff. If he was not careful, he would be doomed. But with his tenacious will and persistent pursuit of martial arts, he started a thrilling contest with the force of life.

Under the impact of this powerful force, Li Yang’s body began to change dramatically. His cells seemed to be injected with magical energy, and the potential that was originally dormant was completely stimulated. Each cell was like a vibrant seed, rapidly dividing and growing, and glowing with unprecedented vitality. They greedily absorbed the power of life, constantly evolving, becoming tougher and more active. His bones became as hard as cast steel, flashing a faint metallic luster, and a slight movement could make a crisp sound, as if telling of the power. The muscles became tighter and contained endless power, as if they could easily tear the space. The bulge of each muscle was full of explosive power, making people feel an unparalleled beauty of power. His skin also became extremely tough, as if covered with a layer of invisible armor, able to withstand powerful attacks, even if a sharp blade passed by, it would only leave a shallow mark.

The source of all these changes lies in the improvement of Li Yang’s life essence. As the foundation of power, life essence has undergone a qualitative leap under the nourishment of life force. The originally ordinary life essence now shines brightly and becomes extremely powerful and tough. It is like a huge source of energy, continuously providing power support for Li Yang’s body, allowing him to better control the various powers in his body. The improvement of life essence is not only an increase in strength, but also a sublimation of the essence of life. Li Yang can feel that his life essence seems to have some subtle connection with the origin of the universe. He seems to be able to touch the heartbeat of the universe and feel the rhythm of the growth of all things.

Li Yang could clearly feel that his life essence was closely connected with the life force, the chaos power, and the nine laws of power, and they were intertwined. The improvement of his life essence not only made his body stronger, but also brought his perception and use of these powers to a whole new level. He could mobilize the power in his body more freely and perform various powerful moves and skills. Every mobilization of power was like playing a grand symphony, with various forces cooperating with each other and resonating harmoniously, exerting a power far beyond the past. He could combine the violence of the chaos power with the vitality of the life force to create a wonderful power that could both destroy and regenerate; he could also use the characteristics of the nine laws of power to make the use of the life force more diverse, whether it was attack, defense or assistance, he could do it with ease.

As Li Yang tried to integrate the power of life, his consciousness seemed to enter a wonderful world. In this world, he witnessed the birth and evolution of the universe, and witnessed the origin and development of life. He saw the birth and destruction of countless stars, and felt the majestic and mysterious power of the universe. He saw life gradually grow from the initial tiny buds, and after countless evolutions and changes, it finally formed a colorful world of life. He felt the power of the growth of all things and realized the true meaning of life. In this mysterious world, he also met some vague figures, who seemed to be strong men from ancient times. They taught Li Yang the secrets of the power of life and how to perfectly integrate the power of life with other forces. The figures of these strong men were sometimes clear and sometimes blurred, and their voices seemed to come from a distant time and space, full of wisdom and majesty. Li Yang humbly asked for advice and eagerly absorbed this knowledge. Every communication with them gave him a deeper understanding of power and life.

Li Yang was immersed in this wonderful world, eagerly learning this knowledge. His consciousness continued to sublimate, and his understanding of martial arts reached a new height. He finally understood that the power of life is not only a powerful energy, but also a mysterious power that can give life and vitality to all things. Only by perfectly integrating the power of life with one’s own power can its powerful power be truly exerted. He realized that the pursuit of martial arts is not only the improvement of strength, but also the exploration of the essence of life and the understanding of the truth of the universe. Every fusion and use of power should be a respect for life and awe of nature.

When Li Yang woke up from this wonderful world, he found that he had successfully merged the power of life with the power of chaos and the power of the nine laws. A new power, the power of life, was born in his body. This power of life was no less powerful than the power of Wuji, the power of chaos and the power of the nine laws. It emitted a soft and warm light, like the source of life. The emergence of the power of life made Li Yang seem to have the power to control life and death. He could feel the vigor and tenacity of life, and understand the tranquility and liberation of death.

The emergence of the divine power of life made Li Yang’s vitality surge to a terrifying level. He felt that his body was full of endless vitality, as if he would never get tired. His senses became more acute, and he could clearly perceive the existence of all life around him. He could even feel the breathing of flowers, plants and trees, and hear their gentle whispers in the breeze. He could perceive the crawling of every insect and the flight of every bird, as if he had merged with the entire nature and became the guardian and master of life.

Not only that, the life force also gave Li Yang the ability to be immortal even in the same realm. Once, Li Yang heard that a desperate place hid the secret of breaking through the limit of martial arts, so he resolutely decided to explore it. This desperate place was shrouded in thick black fog, filled with the breath of death and decay, and no one who stepped into it had ever survived. As soon as he entered, an invisible pressure came over him, as if to crush his body. This pressure came not only from the physical level, but also from the depths of the soul, as if it was a curse on life, making everyone who entered feel deep despair.

On the way forward, Li Yang encountered a terrifying existence unique to desperate situations – the Void Devouring Soul Beast. This giant beast has an illusory figure, and its translucent body flashes with a strange purple light. Wherever it goes, the space seems to be corroded, constantly twisted and broken. It opened its huge mouth, and a powerful suction force was instantly generated, trying to suck Li Yang into its endless belly. Li Yang resisted with all his strength, but was still pulled forward by this suction force. Just when he was about to be swallowed, the life force burst out, forming a solid protective barrier around his body, resisting the devouring power of the Void Devouring Soul Beast. Li Yang fought fiercely with the Void Devouring Soul Beast. During the battle, he was accidentally hit by the tentacles of the Void Devouring Soul Beast, and his body was blown away by the powerful force and hit heavily on a huge black rock, which instantly collapsed. However, Li Yang did not suffer fatal injuries. Under the effect of the life force, his wounds healed quickly, and his broken bones instantly recovered as before, all thanks to his powerful life essence, which provided a steady stream of energy for his body to recover. Li Yang stood up, his eyes flashing with determination. He mobilized his life force and used various powerful attack methods. The life force cooperated with the chaos force and the nine laws to exert unparalleled power. His attack was as fierce as a storm, making the Void Soul Devouring Beast unable to defend. In the end, under Li Yang’s powerful attack, the Void Soul Devouring Beast let out an unwilling roar and gradually dissipated in the black mist. This battle was not only a contest of strength, but also a test of will. Li Yang defeated the seemingly invincible enemy with his tenacious will and strong strength.

Another time, Li Yang touched the ancient forbidden power in the depths of despair. A dark lightning bolt fell from the sky and struck him directly. This lightning contained the power to destroy everything. Wherever it passed, the space was torn into black cracks. Li Yang was hit by lightning before he could dodge. At this critical moment, the life force quickly wrapped around his body, forming a layer of defensive barriers. The power of the forbidden lightning continued to impact this barrier, trying to break it. But the life force, with its strong resilience and vitality, always held on. Not only did Li Yang not suffer fatal injuries, he also used the life force to analyze and absorb the power of the forbidden lightning. He concentrated his mind, mobilized the life force, transformed the power of the forbidden lightning into his own means of attack, and headed deeper into the desperate situation to explore the secrets hidden in the darkness. In this process, Li Yang constantly challenged his limits, his consciousness continued to sublimate under the impact of powerful forces, and he became more proficient in the use of the life force.

After these two life-and-death tests in desperate situations, Li Yang had a deeper understanding of the power of life force. He knew that life force not only made his body extremely strong, but also gave him powerful defense and regeneration capabilities, allowing him to turn danger into safety even in desperate situations. He began to study the various characteristics and application methods of life force in depth, constantly tapping into its potential power.

With the continuous understanding and control of the power of life, Li Yang discovered that this power has many wonderful uses. In battle, he can integrate the power of life into his attacks, making his attacks not only powerful and destructive, but also healing and restoring. Once, Li Yang encountered a group of powerful creatures eroded by the power of darkness in a desperate situation. He used an attack that combined the power of life. This move was like a bright star, flying towards these creatures with endless light and power. When this move hit the enemy, the powerful force instantly repelled them. However, what these creatures did not expect was that this move also had the effect of healing and recovery. The originally twisted bodies of those creatures eroded by the dark power began to gradually return to normal, and the madness and tyranny in their eyes gradually dissipated. Li Yang took this opportunity to use the power of chaos and the power of the nine laws to guide the power in these creatures, help them get rid of the control of the dark power, and explore this desperate situation together. In this process, Li Yang not only demonstrated his strong strength, but also his kindness and wisdom. He used his power to help others and won the respect and trust of these creatures.

In terms of cultivation, the life force also brought great help to Li Yang. He found that with the help of the life force, he could more deeply comprehend the laws of heaven and earth contained in desperate situations, and his cultivation speed was greatly improved. In the past, it took months or even years to comprehend the essence of the laws, but now with the help of the life force, a breakthrough can be made in just a few days. Li Yang’s martial arts realm improved rapidly like a rocket, and soon reached a new height. Among them, the improvement of life essence played a key role. It provided a solid foundation for Li Yang’s cultivation, enabling him to better absorb and use the life force and the mysterious power in desperate situations. Li Yang constantly summed up his experience in the process of cultivation. He integrated his experiences and insights in desperate situations into cultivation and created a unique set of cultivation methods. This method can not only quickly improve strength, but also allow practitioners to better understand the essence of life and power. (End of this chapter)
