Chapter 431: Daoxingsky Venerable! The Slumbering Chaos Supreme Powerhouse!

Chapter 431: Daoxingsky Venerable! The Slumbering Chaos Supreme Powerhouse!

Time flowed, and the void reversed.

As Qin Zheng stepped out of the void, he felt the immortal aura permeating the heavens and earth, and more importantly, a trace of chaos intent.

With just a simple breath, one could sense the joy emanating from the physical body and the spirit, an innate joy from the most primitive instincts.

Compared to the vast continent, this place seemed like another realm, a higher plane, akin to a heavenly paradise! Qin Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he swiftly scanned the area ahead.

In the midst of the chaotic void, a dojo faintly emerged.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

At that moment, within the massive dojo, a heavy bell chimed.

The sound rippled like waves, layer upon layer, instantly dispersing the chaotic mist surrounding the dojo, revealing its true appearance.

Jade Void Palace!

The dojo before him was identical to the one he had seen in the inherited illusion.

However, it wasn't as ancient as that dojo.

Qin Zheng's thoughts surfaced.

Just then, within the dojo, streaks of pure light rose, and human silhouettes emerged, materializing into real bodies.

There were four figures in total, two males and two females, all surpassing the Great Transcendent Golden Numbers and rivaling the strength of the Saintly Monk of Hardship.

After all, this was the Jade Void Palace, and even if it wasn't that ancient dojo, its existence under this name was extraordinary.

"Is this our little junior?"

Among the four figures, one who resembled a young girl in appearance, scanned Qin Zheng with curiosity, then asked.

Xu Dong Lei gently shook his head.

The girl's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she continued, "If he's not our junior, why did Senior Brother go to war with the Demonic Court for him?"

"Isn't it because he values this little thief's talent and wants to take him as a disciple?"

Qin Zheng's eyes slightly narrowed.

Slap!

A jade-like hand had already reached out and lightly tapped the girl's head.

"Even after cultivating to the Great Transcendent Golden Numbers, your temperament is still like a child, unaware of propriety."

Beside the girl was a tall, slender woman with a cool and noble demeanor. After disciplining the girl, she turned to look at Qin Zheng.

"My little junior sister's temperament is a bit immature. Please don't take offense, fellow Daoist."

She smiled faintly, then raised her hands and bowed to Qin Zheng.

Xu Dong Lei quickly stepped forward, stood beside Qin Zheng, and pointed at the four figures across from them, introducing them swiftly:

"The Jade Void Palace currently has twelve disciples. These four before you are the four disciples of the Jade Void Palace."

"Seventh Junior Brother, Fuhai."

"Eighth Junior Sister, Wen Yue."

"Tenth Junior Brother, Hai."

"Twelfth Junior Sister, Ling Jingwan."

After the introductions, Xu Dong Lei pointed to himself and smiled, "As for me, I'm the sixth, with a slightly higher seniority than them."

After Xu Dong Lei spoke, the two remaining men who hadn't spoken yet also stepped forward and bowed to Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng returned the bow and calmly introduced himself, "Qin Zheng."

Among the four who had appeared, only the youngest girl remained, slightly pouting as she rubbed her head and looked at Qin Zheng.

"I was right from the start. Master said he would only take twelve disciples, and he definitely won't be our junior."

"But Senior Brother just went to war with the Demonic Court for him, even giving them a Chaos Treasure."

"With such actions, he must want to take him as a disciple, or he wouldn't pay such a huge price!"

"Moreover, our Jade Void Palace's Primordial Nine Seals are never passed on outside. He knows the Ultimate Seal and the Heaven-Shattering Seal, so he must have stolen them."

The girl hadn't finished speaking.

"Silence!"

A voice rang out from within the dojo.

The girl's face paled, and she instantly quieted down from her incessant chatter.

"Our little junior sister has always cultivated in the Jade Void Palace and hasn't interacted with many others. Her temperament is indeed a bit immature."

Xu Dong Lei explained with some embarrassment, then turned to the girl with a stern face, "Go back now!"

The girl pouted, then looked around with a slightly aggrieved expression, but none of her senior brothers or sisters spoke up for her.

So, without a word, she turned and transformed into a streak of pure light, instantly rushing into a certain area within the dojo.

From start to finish, Qin Zheng maintained a calm demeanor, showing no change in expression.

Just as the girl had said, the Jade Void Palace had gone to war for him and even fought with the Demonic Court.

It was impossible for him to react directly to the girl's 'little thief' comment.

Qin Zheng looked directly at the dojo below.

Seeing that Qin Zheng wasn't bothered, Xu Dong Lei felt slightly more at ease and continued, "Senior Brother is waiting for you.

Qin Zheng nodded slightly, his spiritual awareness having already locked onto the exact location of the voice that had just sounded in the dojo.

So, as soon as Xu Dong Lei finished speaking, Qin Zheng took a step forward and instantly arrived in a certain room within the dojo.

In the quiet room, a peaceful and serene atmosphere permeated the air.

A young man in a green robe was sitting at a table, with a cup of hot tea placed in front of him, as if waiting for a distinguished guest.

"My little junior sister has been pampered since childhood and doesn't know the vastness of the world or that the Jade Void heritage isn't limited to just one place on the Vast Continent."

"I apologize for the earlier disturbance!"

As soon as Qin Zheng entered the room, the green-robed man raised his head, a hint of a smile on his face, and explained.

This statement seemed to be defending the girl, but it was actually revealing Qin Zheng's background.

The green-robed man in front of him had seen through Qin Zheng's identity; he was not from the Vast Continent but had come from beyond it!

However, Qin Zheng had already anticipated this, so he didn't show any signs of surprise.

He shook his head lightly and said, "It's just a minor matter, don't take it to heart."

At the same time, he walked forward and sat down opposite the green-robed man.

In front of him, the tea in the cup seemed to contain a strand of chaotic energy, and amidst the curling steam, there appeared a scene of chaos opening up.

Even with Qin Zheng's current cultivation, he couldn't help but be moved by this cup of tea.

"The chaotic void nurtures all kinds of divine treasures. This tea is brewed from the leaves of an ancient chaotic tea tree, and its effects are quite good."

The green-robed man explained, his voice like the gentle flow of a stream, bringing a sense of calm and comfort.

Then, he reached out and lifted the cup in front of him, tilting his head back to drink the tea in one gulp.

However, Qin Zheng didn't move. He kept his gaze fixed on the green-robed man in front of him.

In his perception, the green-robed man seemed like an infinite, vast universe.

With each breath, he seemed to inhale and exhale unimaginable, terrifying power from the Great Dharmaraja.

But this was not Chaos Origin!

Even though Qin Zheng had never seen Chaos Origin or truly experienced its power, he was certain that the green-robed man was not Chaos Origin!

He was not just a powerful Great Dharmaraja!

Because Qin Zheng didn't feel that sense of despair and helplessness that mortals might feel when gazing up at a towering mountain.

In other words, even if Qin Zheng couldn't defeat the green-robed man in his current state, the man wouldn't be able to kill him!

Moreover, Qin Zheng didn't sense the kind of oppression and disregard that came from a higher level of life.

After all, compared to Taiyi, Great Dharmaraja was a leap and transformation in the level of life.

And compared to Great Dharmaraja, Chaos Origin was also a higher level of life.

When facing a being from a higher level, even if they did nothing, beings from a lower level would still feel oppressed and disregarded.

But Qin Zheng didn't feel that way in front of the man before him.

However, Qin Zheng was surprised that the one who was willing to confront the Demon Court for him, even at the risk of war, was not the master of Jade Void Palace.

Instead, it was the senior brother of this world, the Jade Void Palace's grandmaster.

Qin Zheng's heart stirred with thoughts.

The green-robed man, after finishing his tea, seemed to ignore Qin Zheng's refusal to drink.

He turned his gaze to Qin Zheng and said, "The Great Dharmaraja realm is infinitely profound, and the nine Divine Treasuries contain the essence of heaven and earth."

"Ordinary Great Dharmarajas only open one Divine Treasury, and even if they open three levels, it's merely for advancing their cultivation, which is a waste!"

At this point, he nodded towards Qin Zheng and said with satisfaction, "Vital Blood, Extreme Strength, Primordial Energy, Eternal Life, Wisdom, Dao Mind, and Heavenly Providence!"

"You've opened seven Divine Treasuries, and you're already stronger than nine out of ten Great Dharmarajas!"

"You only need to open the Great Dao Treasury and fully open the third level of the other eight Divine Treasuries."

"Then you can be like me."

The green-robed man continued to nod in satisfaction.

Qin Zheng's heart was certain, confirming his guess that the man was not truly Chaos Origin. He asked, "Then what would happen if the ninth Divine Treasury were opened?"

In Yuan Dongtian, although Tai Chu Xianmen had explained the concept of Divine Treasuries to him, the explanation was limited due to his cultivation level.

The man in front of him, having already opened eight Divine Treasuries, surely knew more.

The green-robed man paused slightly, then said, "The more Divine Treasuries one opens, the greater the chance of attaining Chaos Origin."

"Throughout history, those who have successfully attained enlightenment and comprehended the Primordial Intention have mostly opened eight Divine Treasuries."

"The ninth Divine Treasury, known as Great Dharmaraja, is the foremost among the nine."

"According to my master's teachings, even in the past when cultivation was at its peak, few could open the Great Dharmaraja Treasury."

"However, those who can open the Great Dharmaraja Treasury can directly comprehend the Primordial Intention without fully mastering the Grand Dao."

"So, if you ask what changes will occur when the ninth Divine Treasury is opened, it means directly attaining the Primordial Intention!"

The man in the green robe spoke slowly.

The more Divine Treasuries one opens, the greater the chance of comprehending the Primordial Intention!

Opening the ninth Divine Treasury allows one to directly attain the Primordial Intention!

Qin Zheng's eyes shone with radiant light, carefully engraving the man's words in his heart.

The man in the green robe sat calmly, quietly waiting for Qin Zheng to process his words, but a hint of doubt arose in his heart.

Being able to open seven Divine Treasuries, cultivate to the Great Transcendent Golden Numbers, and traverse the heavens, how could such a person be unaware of the functions and wonders of the nine Divine Treasuries?

As he pondered, he stood up, raised his hands, and bowed, saying, "My name is Pei Qinhu, a disciple of Daoxingsky Venerable, the senior brother of the Jade Void Palace on the Vast Continent."

Qin Zheng immediately put aside his thoughts and stood up, returning the bow.

As he returned the bow, his heart stirred with a surge of emotions.

Daoxingsky Venerable!

Twelve Jade Purity Golden Immortals!

The Jade Void Palace on the Vast Continent, and behind it was such a powerful figure!

In that moment, Qin Zheng felt as if he had touched upon a myth.

But he quickly adjusted his mindset.

Pei Qinhu's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes revealed a hint of surprise.

Although Pei Qinhu had introduced himself, Qin Zheng only stated his name, implying he had no master.

Sensing Pei Qinhu's surprise, Qin Zheng did not hide the truth, saying, "I did not study under any master."

Pei Qinhu's eyes widened in astonishment, and he asked directly, "Did you cultivate to this level on your own?"

To have only cultivation techniques without a master, and to reach such a realm solely through personal cultivation, and even open seven Divine Treasuries, required immense fortune and insight!

Qin Zheng nodded slightly, then continued without dwelling on the matter, "May I ask where your master is now?"

Most of his Jade Void lineage came from refining the Virtue Scroll and the Jade Purity Statue, so if Pei Qinhu inquired further, it might be challenging to explain.

Hearing this, Pei Qinhu immediately became more scrutinizing and sharp-eyed.

But in the next instant, he withdrew his gaze and spoke, "My master, like the other Primordial Intention beings, is currently in a deep slumber."

"Unless something major happens, they won't awaken easily."

Other Primordial Intention beings?

Qin Zheng's eyebrows lifted slightly.

Pei Qinhu continued, "The Demonic Court, Holy Mountain Buddhism, and Celestial Deity—these three powers on the Vast Continent all have Primordial Intention beings."

"However, all of them are in deep slumber and won't awaken easily."

Qin Zheng nodded lightly.

If that's the case, then there's no force on the Vast Continent that can threaten us!

This is good news for us.

"However..."

Pei Qinhu changed the topic.

"The Demonic Court, Holy Mountain Buddhism, and Celestial Deity—these three powers weren't originally from the Vast Continent."

"Initially, only humans and demons inhabited the Vast Continent. These three powers came from beyond the heavens, reshaping this land."

"The Primordial Intention beings currently in slumber also came from beyond the heavens and weren't born on the Vast Continent."

"After millions of years of cultivation, a new Primordial Intention being might emerge from the three powers!"

"A Primordial Intention being who attains enlightenment here has a complete origin, free from Dao wounds, unaffected by the rules of this land, untouched by the flow of time, and can freely traverse the heavens!"

"Once such a Primordial Intention being appears, the Vast Continent's situation will change instantly!"

"So, our task is to strive to become that newest Primordial Intention being!"

"This was my master's solemn request before he fell asleep."

Hearing this, Qin Zheng's relaxed mind became tense again.

Pei Qinhu's expression grew solemn, and he spoke slowly, "But in the current situation, the one with the highest chance of attaining the Primordial Intention is on the Holy Mountain!"
