He secretly thought that something was wrong. He didn't expect that the improvement in his cultivation just now would almost cause his body to burst.

"Oh no, oh no, Senior, what should I do?"

There was a hint of urgency in Lu Yun's voice, and he subconsciously hugged himself tightly, as if this could prevent his body from collapsing further.

Seeing this, the old man's eyes flashed with pity, but more of it was encouragement.

"Don't panic. Follow what I taught you before and guide the law of fire in your body to condense it into a seed of the avenue. This is the key to stabilizing your realm."

Lu Yun quickly collected his mind and, according to the method taught by the old man, began to try to guide the violent chain of fiery red laws in his body.

His eyes were closed, his face was focused, and he slowly raised his hands and made a guiding gesture, as if he was summoning something.

As his mind moved, the fiery red chain of laws in his body seemed to sense the call and began to slowly circle, spinning around Lu Yun's mind core, gradually increasing in speed and forming a fiery red vortex.

"Condensate!" Lu Yun shouted in a low voice, and suddenly retracted his mental power. The fiery red chain of laws seemed to be attracted by a huge force and began to compress rapidly.

During the compression process, the power of the law and Lu Yun's spiritual will continued to merge, and the boundary between the two gradually blurred until they merged into one.

Just as Lu Yun was concentrating on condensing the Seed of the Great Dao, the fine cracks on the surface of his body began to make slight "cracking" sounds, as if the ice was thawing in the spring breeze, the cracks gradually healed, and the strength of his body continued to increase.

At the same time, in Lu Yun’s sea of ​​consciousness, in the center of the fiery red vortex, a crystal light slowly took shape, which was the prototype of the Seed of the Great Dao.

"It's done!" Lu Yun was delighted, but soon realized that this was only a preliminary success. If he wanted to truly consolidate his realm, he would need to continue working hard.

Without stopping for a moment, he continued to guide the remaining laws of fire to converge towards the newborn seed of the Tao.

Every bit of fire element added makes the Seed of the Great Dao more brilliant, like a rising star, illuminating the entire sea of ​​consciousness.

While Lu Yun was immersed in the refining process, the old man was observing silently from the side, frowning occasionally, and was obviously worried about Lu Yun's safety.

But seeing the Seed of the Avenue gradually taking shape, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction and whispered encouragement.

"Okay, that's it, kid, stay focused, you have more potential than I thought."

As the last trace of the law of fire merged into the Seed of the Great Dao, a soft light burst out from Lu Yun's sea of ​​consciousness.

The seed of the Great Dao seemed to have gained life, releasing a warm and powerful energy.

The cracks on Lu Yun's body and sea of ​​consciousness were completely repaired. At the same time, a new force flowed through his body, making him feel completely refreshed.

Lu Yun slowly opened his eyes, with an incredible light flashing in his eyes. He felt his body filled with unprecedented vitality, as if the whole world had become closer.

"Senior, I... I did it?" he asked in disbelief, with uncontrollable excitement in his tone.

The old man laughed heartily, his hair and beard standing on end, and he looked extremely happy.

"You are really good, kid. Congratulations on entering the realm of quasi-saint. Remember, this is just the beginning, there is still a long way to go."

Lu Yun woke up from the ecstasy and shock, his eyes suddenly opened, like the first ray of sunlight at dawn penetrating the endless darkness.

But what greeted him was not the glorious scene after promotion, but the gradual emptiness of the scene before him.

The old man's figure also became blurred in the sight, like morning dew meeting the early sun, slowly dissipating.

"Senior! Senior, what's wrong with you?!" Lu Yun was horrified, his voice filled with incredible panic. He took a step forward, trying to grab something, but only grabbed a handful of nothingness.

The old man sighed softly, and that voice contained too many emotions, including relief, regret, and deep reliance.

"Lu Yun, you succeeded and were promoted to the Quasi-Saint realm. This is your honor and your starting point. But the energy of Sky Island can only barely support you to complete this step. I'm afraid I can't do anything to move forward."

Lu Yun's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand. He couldn't believe that he was facing the possibility of losing everything just after he touched the peak of power.

"How could this happen? Senior, tell me, is there any way to save you, save Sorajima?"

The old man shook his head slowly, his eyes flashing with complex light.

"You can't do it with your current strength. You must go to the Immortal Land. Only when you reach the ancestral realm can you have a chance to reverse time and space, save me, and save this Sky Island. You are already a quasi-saint, you should be able to feel the breath of the Immortal Land, follow it, and go."

After saying that, the old man stretched out his dry hand and drew out a bright pearl with a soft glow from the void. The pearl seemed to carry all the memories and emotions of Sky Island, and it floated quietly in front of Lu Yun.

"This is the last thing I can leave you. I have sealed the aura of Sky Island in it. Take it with you and remember our agreement."

Lu Yun's eyes were slightly red. He took a step forward and wanted to catch the empty pearl, but he paused in mid-air, as if he was not just taking over an object, but a heavy responsibility.

"Senior, please don't! Is there any other way? I can't just leave you like this!"

The old man smiled slightly, and in that smile there was a calmness that came from seeing through life and death.

"Since ancient times, everyone is mortal. Leave behind a loyal heart to shine in history. Go, Lu Yun. The road ahead is still long and you have a more important mission. Remember, you are a quasi-saint and you have the power to change everything."

Before he finished speaking, the old man's figure and the scene of the Nine Netherworld disappeared together, like dust blown away by the wind, leaving no trace.

Lu Yun only felt that the space around him began to shake violently, as if the whole world was mourning the old man's departure.

"Senior!" Lu Yun roared, his voice echoing in the void, but received no response.

He held the empty pearl tightly, feeling the faint breath coming from it, and felt mixed emotions.

At this time, the surrounding space gradually collapsed, and the Nine Netherworlds gradually dissipated.

Lu Yun took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and turned all his sadness and reluctance into a source of strength. He mobilized the quasi-saint power that had just awakened in his body and concentrated it on one point.

"The way of space, use it for my own benefit!" Lu Yun shouted, and his body was enveloped by a layer of light silver light, which was the embodiment of the law of space. He waved his hands, and a crack seemed to be torn in the air, which was the portal to the upper world.

Before stepping into the crack, Lu Yun looked back. The land that used to be the Nine Netherworld was now nothing but nothingness.

He secretly swore in his heart that one day, he would come back with a stronger attitude, reverse time and space, rescue the old man, and rebuild Sky Island.

"Wait for me, senior, I will definitely come back." Lu Yun stepped into the space crack resolutely. His figure was quickly swallowed up, leaving only a silver track, which gradually disappeared in the void.
