Chapter 773 Success of the Second Stage of Dharma Form
Another hundred years have passed.
That day, Jemin was hunched over his work, focused on his research into temporary incantation techniques.
The table was piled high with a thick stack of experimental records, almost reaching the ceiling, looking like a solid wall.
As he reviewed the records, he used his mental power to observe the transformed test tube moving samples back and forth between the culture tank and the reagent rack. This was not the original one.
The original test tube had long since settled on the black giant priest's shoulder, becoming a semi-official member of the most senior transport team in the main laboratory.
This current batch is the thirty-seventh batch of test samples that he specifically created to control for variables.
It took tiny, quick steps, and its movements were much smoother than the first batch.
Occasionally, when passing by the culture tank, it would subconsciously stop, stand on tiptoe, and peek inside... even though it didn't have eyes.
As Jieming watched it carrying the samples with such seriousness, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Just as I was about to record the behavioral deviations of these enlightened beings, a very subtle tremor suddenly surged up from the deepest part of my spiritual sea.
Like a jigsaw puzzle that had slumbered for thousands of years, slowly turning in the depths of consciousness, finally fitting the last piece perfectly. Jemin paused, his gaze rising from the experiment.
Without hesitation, he put down the experimental records in his hand, got up and left the laboratory, passed through the teleportation array, and arrived in the outer space outside the continent of Purgatory Sulfur Plane.
The universe is silent and vast.
There was no wind, gravity, or any other unnecessary interference, only the faint light cast by distant stars.
The next instant, a dark golden light burst forth from Jemin's body.
The thousand-meter-tall true form stretched out in the void.
The burly, dark golden giant shrugged and stretched his limbs. The three eyes on his two faces lit up simultaneously, like six golden flames. Then, he unleashed his dual Dharma form.
A golden phantom, five hundred kilometers high, slowly rose into place in the void.
This time, the outline of the Dharma image is much more solid than before, but it still has a slightly illusory edge.
It's like a statue that hasn't been fully cast yet, with an awe-inspiring presence, but it's still missing its last breath and hasn't truly been settled yet.
Jemin didn't rush to feel the power.
He sat cross-legged in the center of the Buddha's chest and slowly closed his eyes.
Within the sea of consciousness, everything accumulated over thousands of years in the Dao Integration Realm began to operate with a thunderous roar at this moment.
His profound analysis of the laws of spiritual energy, his understanding of alchemy, his cross-system research on soul studies, and his countless deductions of the Zhou Tian Star Array...
All knowledge, understanding, insights, and accumulation, in this instant, are like a vast vein of ore thrown into a furnace, beginning to melt in the high temperature, and then crystallizing again.
The dimensional origin of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane was the first to respond.
Deep within the main continent, the golden dimensional origin slowly rotated, emitting layers of ripples.
next moment.
The elemental tides of the entire plane seemed to be drawn by some invisible will, converging towards the depths of the universe.
Sensing this obvious change, the black giant priests almost simultaneously stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky in surprise. At the center of the ever-converging vortex of elements, the Dharma form began to change.
The edges of the originally somewhat ethereal outline gradually became sharper.
The illusory golden halo began to converge inward.
After the light and mist dissipated, what was revealed was no longer a semi-transparent phantom, but a dark golden entity as dense as the real body.
The surface of the image revealed muscle textures identical to the real body; the joints of each finger, the edge of each nail, and the direction of each strand of hair were all gradually transitioning from a phantom to a solid form.
However, the true form within the Dharma image is becoming increasingly illusory.
The dark golden light of the kilometer-tall true form changed from solid to semi-transparent.
The outlines of bones and muscles melted away little by little in the light.
The thousand-meter-tall true form began to crumble inch by inch. Every piece of flesh and every strand of bone transformed back into the purest stream of light, surging towards the surrounding materializing Dharma forms.
It was as if a statue had melted itself and been recast into a colossal idol.
The essence of Dharma-image-based practices is never about adding an even larger illusory image on top of the real body.
The Dharma Form type of cultivation is a kind of biochemical modification surgery from beginning to end. When each Dharma Form reaches its peak, it will completely merge the original true body with the Dharma Form, making the Dharma Form itself a new true body.
When the last stream of dark golden light surged out from the old true form and completely entered the Dharma form, what sat cross-legged in the void was no longer a golden giant a thousand meters tall and a phantom five hundred kilometers away surrounding him.
Instead, there is a real, 500-kilometer-tall physical structure.
Dark gold skin, broad shoulders and a muscular build, two faces, and a golden vertical eye between his brows.
That is Jemin's new true identity.
Jemin slowly opened his eyes and stretched his new body in the vastness of space.
The mere act of raising his arm stirred up a visible ripple in the void, like the ripples spreading outwards after a pebble is dropped into deep water.
He took a slow breath, and the elements within hundreds of thousands of kilometers vibrated simultaneously, causing an elemental storm in space.
Jemin looked down at his hands in amazement.
He could clearly feel that the surging power within him was more than an order of magnitude stronger than that of his old true form.
The realm of solidified laws is also rapidly expanding in the transformation between Dharma form and true form.
Now, without deliberately expanding, Jemin can sort out all the elements within hundreds of thousands of kilometers around him.
He floated silently in the void, feeling the subtle sensations emanating from every inch of his new body.
The feeling was amazing, like I had been completely remade, more composed and more real than before.
It has been over a thousand years since he entered the Dao Integration Realm.
Thanks to the unique characteristics of the Dao Integration Realm and continuous learning, over a thousand years of accumulation have finally allowed the Second Dharma Aspect to complete its final evolution. Following the cultivation principles of the *True Scripture of Self-Mastery*, the next step is the Third Dharma Aspect.
The first evolution of the Dharma form expanded from a physical body of less than two meters to a true body of a thousand meters.
The second evolution of the Dharma form expanded from a kilometer-long true form to a five-hundred-kilometer-long true form.
Based on this ratio, the final height of the triple form should be 250,000 kilometers.
At that level, the scale is beyond what the word "giant" can describe.
It was a colossal object that made even ordinary planets seem insignificant.
Jemin paused silently in the void for a moment, then slowly retracted his body.
His true form, which was five hundred kilometers long, receded like a tide, and the dark golden light faded away layer by layer, transforming back into his usual human form.
When he passed through the teleportation array and returned to the main laboratory of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, a group of black giant priests were already waiting beside the teleportation array.
Standing at the very front was the priest who had been carrying the activated test tube.
The test tube leaped off his shoulder, trotted to Jemin's feet, tilted its slender stem upwards, and waved its "hand" at him. "Congratulations, my lord!"
The vertical openings in the chests of the black giant priests opened and closed simultaneously, producing a deep and respectful vibration.
The activated test tube also followed their actions, raising its thin, hair-like arms and tapping its own quartz tube twice, producing a crisp "ding-ding" sound, appearing extremely serious.
Jemin nodded to them, then hurriedly returned to the laboratory.
As he closed the laboratory door, his previously gentle expression crumbled, and he couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly.
Because Jemin sensed that the world around him had suddenly become unusually fragile.
The once vast and boundless continent of Sulfur Purgatory now seemed to shrink into a cardboard box in his perception.
He had to carefully shrink himself inside, otherwise he might break the box if he wasn't careful.
The ceiling of the main laboratory was clearly three stories high, but he subconsciously lowered his head, afraid that he might accidentally bump into something. The metal floor beneath his feet was strong enough to support the weight of his transformed form.
But he could feel the rock layers beneath the floor trembling slightly under the pressure of that presence.
Fortunately, the true size of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane is now large enough.
After merging with the Tentacle Tree plane, the outer perimeter of the continent directly expanded into a cosmic space with a diameter of hundreds of billions of light-years.
I can stretch out in that environment without feeling any awkwardness.
When he unfolded his true form, which spanned 500 kilometers in the void, it was like an ordinary person standing on a vast grassland, with enough space around him to move freely.
However, as he continues to advance in the Dao Integration Realm, his true form will only grow larger and larger.
When the dualistic form was just completed, it was 500 kilometers.
As the "Tao" continues to accumulate, this number will continue to grow until it approaches the threshold of the threefold Dharma form.
The threshold for the threefold Dharma form is 250,000 kilometers.
That's already several times larger than an ordinary star.
Although the universe of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane is vast, the continental areas where daily activities take place will eventually revert to being just "cardboard boxes" in the face of such a massive size.
Jemin raised his hand and pressed his temples, then thought of another, more practical problem.
On the outskirts of the Purgatory Sulfur Continent, several fragments of the world still float.
Those fragments contained a large number of his bizarre samples, high-risk experimental materials, and research items related to the reflection dimension.
The world fragments themselves are all ultra-small planes peeled off from independent planes, each with a diameter of only a few tens of kilometers.
When he was in his true form, which was a thousand meters tall, he could barely squeeze into it using a special stabilizing array.
Now that his true form is 500 kilometers away, the independent spatial structure inside the world fragment cannot withstand the pressure of the laws governing his true form.
Forcing your way in will only cause the spatial structure inside the fragment to collapse at the level of its laws.
Thinking this, Jemin subconsciously touched the experiment, and then the experimental runes began to become disordered.
That's the effect of a sudden increase in status.
Jemin sighed, looked up at the laboratory dome, and had a subtle expression.
"Let's renovate the lab first... For troublesome things like this, we'll have to rummage through the Great Dao Library."
Seek out any techniques or methods that can handle this type of problem.
