“Even though there is a method to integrate the Dao, it still requires time. At the very least, I have a direction now.”
Jiang Changsheng thought with satisfaction. The thirteenth level of the Dao Technique provided him with a mental cultivation method to cultivate different Great Daos. The Extreme Dao Divine Technique could integrate different Great Daos. When the two were combined, it was a path with unlimited potential.
He did not start cultivating directly. Instead, he calculated the strongest experts in the system’s range.
[Requires 344 Heavenly Dao incense points. Do you wish to continue?]
Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows. Why did such a powerful existence suddenly appear?
Previously, no one was able to break through to the 200 Heavenly Dao incense points threshold. Now, an expert that exceeded 300 Heavenly Dao incense points had jumped out.
He had expected this to happen, but he did not expect it to happen so soon.
He continued to calculate. There was no one who exceeded the 50 Heavenly Dao incense point mark around the Kunlun Field, which was good news.
With the rulers of the Martial Dao gone, the 3000 worlds had become a meal for outside forces to compete for. In comparison, the Immortal Dao seemed insignificant.
“I have to break through as soon as possible. Now that an expert with a strength value of 344 Heavenly Dao incense points has appeared, stronger experts will appear in the future.”
Jiang Changsheng was secretly vigilant. He was curious about the realm the expert with a strength value of 344 Heavenly Dao incense points was in.
From 10 to 100 Heavenly Dao incense points was the Heavenly Six Desires
Realm. From 100 to 200 Heavenly Dao incense points was the Overturning Heaven Realm. From 200 to 300 Heavenly Dao incense points, there was probably another realm.
With the Extreme Dao Divine Technique, Jiang Changsheng was confident that he could shorten the time needed for his breakthrough.
He closed his eyes and continued to cultivate.
After closing his eyes, two hundred years passed by.
When he opened his eyes, he did not see Mu Lingluo and Bai Qi in the hall. It turned out that Mu Lingluo was transcending her tribulation.
The Taiyi Realm!
Ultimately, Mu Lingluo had to reach this realm.
She had already dabbled in the power of the Great Dao, and coupled with the medicinal pills and magical treasures on her, it was basically not a problem for her to transcend the tribulation. Furthermore, the Celestial Emperor had personally returned to control the formation around his mother. If there were no foreign enemies, her tribulation would basically be stable.
Jiang Changsheng silently watched Mu Lingluo transcend her tribulation.
There were no unexpected results in this tribulation transcendence, and Mu Lingluo successfully stepped into the Taiyi Realm. The Celestial Emperor was happy because of this, so he announced that the Immortal Peach Convention would be held in advance. For a moment, the Kunlun Field and the Heavenly Court were lively again. Many mighty cultivators from the Heaven Realm also came to participate in the Immortal Peach Convention.
Everything was thriving, as if the calamity was not here.
However, Jiang Changsheng saw that the human world was starting to get chaotic. Soon, there was internal strife in Heavenly Jing. A day in the sky, a thousand years on earth. There were differences between immortals and mortals. The name of the Dao Ancestor was already a legend in the hearts of the people in Heavenly Jing. Since they thought it was a legend, they could not restrain their ambitions.
Jiang Changsheng had no intention of interfering. How could there be eternal peace in this world?
He slowly closed his eyes and continued to cultivate in seclusion, not caring about the world.
In the Peach Garden.
The Celestial Emperor and Mu Lingluo sat opposite each other and drank tea, enjoying the time when mother and son reunited.
“Mother, it is rare for you to have the time to accompany your son. You are becoming more and more like a father. You would often go into seclusion for hundreds of years,” the Celestial Emperor smiled and said.
Only in private would he call Jiang Changsheng his father. This was also to respect the identity and status of the Dao Ancestor.
Mu Lingluo chuckled and said, “If you regard cultivation as an interesting thing and immerse yourself in it, it is indeed easy to ignore time.”
The mother and son chatted for a while before the Celestial Emperor got down to business. He put down his teacup and said, “Mother, now that the calamity has begun, the Immortal Dao may seem stable, but stability might not be a good thing in the midst of the calamity. Those forces in the center of the vortex seem in danger, but they are growing rapidly. Sooner or later, it will affect the Immortal Dao.”
Mu Lingluo stared at him, blinked, and said, “What does this have to do with me? You don’t want me to help you fight, do you?”
The Celestial Emperor blushed with shame and shook his head. “Mother, don’t make fun of me. Naturally, I would not dare to trouble you. I hope that you can sort out your experiences reaching the Taiyi Realm. I am also currently doing this. I hope mother and I will work on an immortal technique together to promote the development of the Immortal Dao.”
When Mu Lingluo heard that, she pondered for a moment and said, “That’s a good thing. I agree. I heard that Dao Lord Nirvana founded a Daoist sect and obtained a huge amount of merit. You must have also set your sights on merit. What’s the use of this merit?”
“Cough, why do you have to be so straightforward, Mother? However, I do have the heart to consider the Immortal Dao. As for merit, even the Dao Lord is still figuring it out. If you want to understand, you can only ask Father.” The Celestial Emperor smiled helplessly.
Mu Lingluo smiled and did not reply.
At that moment, Chen Li swiftly flew over and landed in front of the table. He then bowed to the Celestial Emperor and Mu Lingluo. “Your Majesty, something big has happened to the 3000 worlds!” Chen Li spoke in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
The Celestial Emperor looked at him and said, “Tell me about it.”
“The number one prodigy of the Divine Martial Realm, the Supreme Kunlun, suddenly appeared and founded the Supreme Dao. Many aristocratic clans have joined, including some scattered forces in the Heaven Realm. This is not a good thing. It is said that the Supreme Dao does not just consist of the Martial Dao. The Supreme Kunlun has grasped many cultivation systems and wants to establish an unprecedented orthodoxy.”
Chen Li’s words caused the Celestial Emperor to frown.
He regarded the Martial Dao aristocratic clans in the Heaven Realm as allies. For this reason, he had made many concessions and even listed Jiang Yi as a wanted man. However, he did not expect that this day would come.
Those aristocratic clans that joined the Supreme Dao might very possibly become the Supreme Dao’s method to deal with the Heaven Realm. Most importantly, the Heavenly Court had yet to grow to the extent of controlling the Heaven Realm.
Even though the Heaven Realm belonged to the Immortal Dao, that was only on account of the Dao Ancestor. The Heavenly Court was just one of the many forces.
The Celestial Emperor was deep in thought, and Chen Li did not disturb him.
Meanwhile, Mu Lingluo quietly left so that the two of them could discuss without any worries.
Under the dazzling starry sky, a lonely hall was seen. Figures sat in the hall, including Cangshi Heaven who dispelled the luck of the Martial Dao and Qinglan Heaven who had seen Jiang Changsheng.
Cangshi Heaven suddenly opened his eyes and revealed a shocked expression. He said in a trembling voice, “How is that possible… why are they here!”
As soon as he said that, the figures in the hall opened their eyes in unison and focused their gazes on him.
Qinglan Heaven frowned and asked, “Who’s here?”
“Dao Yan!”
When Cangshi Heaven spat out those two words, it caused the expressions of most of the figures to change drastically. They had all returned from the inner void, so they naturally knew what the words ‘Dao Yan’ meant.
Qinglan Heaven hurriedly stood up and asked, “Could it be that the Martial Dao
Divine Saints cannot stop them? Even if they can’t, why did they come to the Endless Void? They are transcendent Great Dao orthodoxies. Why would they need to descend to the void?”
The Martial Dao experts in the hall started to discuss.
“In the past, when the Ancient Arts were destroyed, the Dao Yan did not appear. Why is that?”
“In the inner void, the Dao Yan is an existence that runs wild. If they descend into the Endless Void, how can we restore the Martial Dao?”
“What should we do? We’ve done so much and even sacrificed countless mortals. Are we supposed to give up?” “Facing the Dao Yan, can you still stop them?”
“Damn it, how could this be…”
Hearing the discussion in the hall, Cangshi Heaven frowned.
“That’s not right!”
Cangshi Heaven’s sudden shout shocked everyone into silence and they looked at him again.
His eyes flickered as he said, “The Dao Yan’s aura is still so domineering, but it is not their full strength. If the Dao Yan’s main branch descends, all the laws in the Endless Void will collapse. Could it be… I know!”
“It’s Lu Yantian, the one who hunted down Great Dao Gods. He is the most active prodigy among the Dao Yan in tens of millions of years. I didn’t expect him to have his eyes on the calamity in the Endless Void. If that’s the case…
When Qinglan Heaven heard the name ‘Lu Yantian’, her expression changed.
An old man frowned and said, “Even if it’s not the main branch of the Dao Yan, the Yantians of the Dao Yan are not something we can deal with. Any random Yantian would have enough troops to sweep across the Endless Void.”
Another person said, “A million years ago, the previous Great Cold Heaven was defeated by Lu Yantian. His Great Cold inheritance even encountered an eternal curse. Such an existence is not something a weak Heaven can deal with.”
The others echoed. When they heard that the intruders were not from the main branch of the Dao Yan, they became even more flustered, fearing that Cangshi Heaven would be brave and confront the other party.
“I naturally know this. I am not going to deal with him now. It’s just that we will need to wait a little longer.”
Cangshi Heaven said in a deep voice. He felt powerless. In the face of Lu Yantian, he did not have the courage to fight back.
He suddenly thought of the Dao Ancestor.
That powerful existence that could contend against the luck of the entire Martial Dao might be able to cause Lu Yantian some trouble.
This was good too. If they let Lu Yantian deal with the Dao Ancestor, they would still have hope after the calamity ended once Lu Yantian left.
Hearing Cangshi Heaven’s words, the Martial Dao experts breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Qinglan Heaven suddenly raised his head and a terrifying green light burst out from her eyes, illuminating the resplendent starry sky. A mighty phantom appeared out of thin air. It was a figure.
The expressions of Cangshi Heaven and the other experts changed drastically as they knelt down one after another.
“Greetings, War Divine Saint!”
The virtual shadow wore a purple robe with flame patterns and a red-scaled flood dragon wrapped around his waist. His long hair was coiled under a golden crown with a golden statue of a mythical beast standing on it. He had a dignified expression and his eyes revealed a terrifying cold glint as he looked down at everyone.
Cangshi Heaven glanced at Qinglan Heaven and cursed.
He did not expect Qinglan Heaven to be someone under the War Divine Saint.
It turned out that the Divine Saints did not trust him at all!
“Lu Yantian alone has frightened you. If the main branch were to come, how would you face them? With your backbone, how can the Martial Dao become a transcendent Dao like the Dao Yan?”
The War Divine Saint snorted, scaring Cangshi Heaven and the others so much that they did not dare to raise their heads.
“Cangshi Heaven, listen up. Lu Yantian has invaded the Martial Dao Void. You must not let him escape this calamity. Otherwise, you will never return to the inner void!”
The moment he said that, Cangshi Heaven looked up and immediately became anxious. The others were the same.
“Don’t talk about whether we have the ability to do it or not. Even if we can do it, aren’t you Divine Saints afraid of the Dao Yan’s retaliation?” One of the martial artists asked anxiously.
The War Divine Saint said coldly, “This is not something you should care about. This is a test for you and also a test for Lu Yantian. The calamity is long, so you have plenty of opportunities and time to plan!”
“Since ancient times, the Great Dao has been in a cycle. How many Great Daos can transcend? If you can’t pass this hurdle, the Martial Dao will be completely annihilated and we will be torn into pieces. Think about it carefully. Without the protection of the Martial Dao, can you survive in the inner void?”
Hearing this, even Cangshi Heaven couldn’t help but tremble with fear..
