Chapter 453: Complete Eighth Stage Divine Treasury! Heading to the Sea of Rules!

Chapter 453: Complete Eighth Stage Divine Treasury! Heading to the Sea of Rules!

High above the Endless Sky, at the edge of the Vast Continent, dense Chaos Aura permeated the area, isolating the entire continent from the surrounding void.

Whoosh!

At that moment...

A sword light pierced through the chaotic mist, breaking the silence and shooting into a majestic monastery floating amidst the fog.

Simultaneously...

Inside the Jade Purity Monastery, Pei Qinhu, who was in deep meditation, suddenly opened his eyes and extended his hand, grasping the faint sword light within his palm.

"The Spirit Mountain Bodhimanda is stirring."

Within the sword light, a slightly solemn voice resonated.

Pei Qinhu's expression immediately turned grave.

For his second senior brother to send such a serious message, the disturbance caused by the Spirit Mountain Bodhimanda in the Sea of Rules was undoubtedly significant!

And in the next moment...

Whoosh!

Ripples appeared in the void, causing a disturbance.

The Jade Purity disciples also sensed the sword light and quickly arrived outside the room where Pei Qinhu was located.

"Come in."

Pei Qinhu spoke softly.

Swish!

The door opened.

Xu Nianqing stepped into the room, his voice carrying a sense of urgency, "Has something happened in the Sea of Rules?"

Xu Donglai and the others followed closely behind, entering one by one, their faces filled with concern as they looked at Pei Qinhu.

The Rule Artifacts within the Sea of Rules, especially the treasure site recently discovered by the Jade Purity lineage, were crucial to their master's awakening.

They couldn't allow other factions to seize it!

Pei Qinhu, without hesitation, nodded and replied, "The Spirit Mountain Bodhimanda."

Hearing this response, the Jade Purity disciples' faces turned solemn, and a sense of foreboding arose in their hearts.

Although the Endless Demon Court, the Spirit Mountain Bodhimanda, and the Heavenly Court had been searching for Rule Artifacts in the Sea of Rules for millions of years, each faction had been doing so independently, rarely causing major disturbances or conflicts in the Sea of Rules.

Firstly, the Sea of Rules was vast, so vast that even after millions of years of exploration, they had only uncovered a fraction of it.

Secondly, the Sea of Rules was filled with chaotic Rule Power, and any intense fighting within it could easily trigger a Rule Riot.

Therefore, the three factions had always exercised restraint.

But this time, even the second senior brother had sent a message through sword light, indicating that the trouble caused by these bald monks was significant.

"Is it because of Qin Zheng?"

Xu Nianqing's voice carried a sense of urgency.

The Spirit Mountain Bodhimanda had always been proud, and now, having suffered a setback at Qin Zheng's hands, it was hard not to speculate that they might be seeking revenge against the Jade Void Palace.

The disciples' eyes flickered, clearly thinking along the same lines.

Pei Qinhu paused for a moment before gently shaking his head and responding, "The matter at Spirit Mountain has passed, and they have no reason to act now."

"Moreover, their focus is on the Water and Land Dharma Assembly three thousand years from now, not petty grudges."

"With Qin Daoyou's intervention, they should not cause further trouble before the Buddhist Supreme Enlightenment."

The Water and Land Dharma Assembly three thousand years later was different from the past; it was a pivotal event to awaken the Three Primordial Chaos Positions on the Vast Continent through the power of humanity.

Once the Buddhist Supreme Enlightenment was achieved, one of the Three Primordial Chaos Positions would belong to them.

Therefore, the Spirit Mountain Bodhimanda's primary focus would be on the Water and Land Dharma Assembly three thousand years later.

Xu Nianqing's eyebrows furrowed slightly upon hearing this.

Xu Donglai's eyes flickered, and he spoke, "Perhaps Qin Daoyou's actions have made them feel threatened, and they plan to awaken their Primordial Chaos Essence as soon as possible."

The Rule Artifacts nurtured in the Sea of Rules contained thin strands of Great Way Essence Energy, which could aid the slumbering Primordial Chaos Essence in their recovery and quicken their awakening.

Pei Qinhu nodded slightly upon hearing this.

This explanation seemed the closest to the truth.

"Then let's return immediately."

Xu Nianqing decided not to delve further into the reasons and responded accordingly.

The second senior brother's message through sword light was to urge them to return to the Sea of Rules promptly.

"But Qin Daoyou hasn't returned yet!"

Xu Donglai spoke with gravity.

Without Qin Zheng, the Rule Artifact from the discovered treasure site couldn't be retrieved.

Xu Nianqing immediately spoke, "We don't know when Qin Daoyou will return."

"I, along with the fourth and fifth senior brothers, will go to assist the second senior brother. Sixth senior brother, you wait for Qin Daoyou's return before heading to the Sea of Rules."

The most urgent task was to prevent the treasure site from being seized by the frenzied Spirit Mountain Bodhimanda.

After speaking, he looked at Pei Qinhu, who nodded, and then left with the other two Jade Purity disciples, transforming into streaks of light.

The atmosphere at the site remained heavy.

The twelve disciples of Jade Void, only slightly more than half of them, had ventured into the Sea of Rules.

Pei Qinhu shook his head slightly, "You all should focus on your cultivation in the Dao Field and strive to break through to above the Fifth Stage of the Divine Treasury."

After a brief pause, he continued, "With the Dao companions from Biyou Palace by his side, Second Junior Brother should be fine."

In short, their strength was still insufficient to intervene in the affairs of the Sea of Rules.

The Jade Void disciples' expressions darkened. Even though they were considered the creme de la creme among the vast populace, the unparalleled geniuses of the heavens, and had cultivated to the Great Transcendent Golden Stage, they still felt powerless at this moment. They secretly resented their own inadequate talents, having cultivated for millions of years without breaking through to above the Fifth Stage.

Xu Donglai, noticing their dejected state, was about to offer some words of comfort.

Suddenly, Pei Qinhu lifted his head, his gaze sweeping past the group and toward their backs.

Xu Donglai quickly turned around and saw a figure clad in a golden-runed dark robe silently appearing behind them in the room.

If not for their senior brother's raised head, he wouldn't have sensed a thing, even at this moment.

According to his perception, there was nothing in front of him; no one existed.

At this thought, Xu Donglai was shocked, wondering if this person had made progress again? But then, a wave of joy surged in his heart.

"Congratulations, Friend Qin, on taking another step forward! The path to Primordial Chaos is just within reach!"

Pei Qinhu stood up and walked a few steps forward, his face filled with a smile as he congratulated Qin Zheng.

But beneath his calm exterior, his heart was stirred by a tumultuous wave.

Qin Zheng smiled slightly, returned the salute, and said, "My matters have been resolved, and I can now head to the Sea of Rules."

Several years had passed since the great battle at Spirit Mountain.

During this time, Qin Zheng had been in the Heavenly Palace of the Human Immortal Dynasty, comprehending the Great Way marks left behind by the Buddhist Supreme Enlightenment and the Demon Court's Primordial Chaos Enlightenment.

Qin Zheng hadn't expected that each time he was pulled into an illusion by the Virtue Scroll, although not much time had passed, the outside world's time had flown by.

Furthermore, the difficulty of the Dao Enlightenment Seeking process had exceeded his initial expectations.

Dao Enlightenment Seeking was not like the Virtue Scroll, which directly refined and infused all things into his body and divine soul.

This Virtue Technique, Dao Enlightenment Seeking, extracted the hidden Dao essence from various Divine Artifacts and Rule Artifacts and presented it before him.

Everything after that required his own comprehension.

After consuming five Virtue Crystals, Qin Zheng still hadn't fully comprehended the two Great Ways of the Buddhist Supreme Enlightenment and the Demon Court's Primordial Chaos Enlightenment.

After all, these were the Great Ways of the universe, and the key to attaining Primordial Chaos Enlightenment was not as simple as comprehending a few times through Dao Enlightenment Seeking.

Qin Zheng wasn't discouraged by this.

Although he hadn't comprehended the two Great Ways, the Great Dharmaraja Treasury within his body had successfully opened, and he had broken through to the Third Stage of Completion.

So, the five Virtue Crystals were not wasted.

Qin Zheng had now fully entered the ranks of those at the Complete Eighth Stage of the Divine Treasury, truly standing at the forefront below Primordial Chaos.

To progress further, he would either have to unlock the most mysterious Great Dharmaraja Treasury or comprehend and master the Great Way.

Both paths could lead to Primordial Chaos.

Without delay, Qin Zheng off from the Human Heavenly Court and arrived at the Jade Void Monastery, intending to head to the Sea of Rules.

According to Pei Qinhu, the Rule Artifacts nurtured there could not only help in healing Primordial Chaos injuries but also assist in comprehending the Great Way.

Qin Zheng wanted to see if these Rule Artifacts would be of use to him.

After receiving Qin Zheng's response, the Jade Void disciples in the room were filled with joy.

Xu Donglai quickly spoke up, "Friend Qin, you've come just in time. I'll take you to the Sea of Rules now."

Pei Qinhu stopped him and turned to Qin Zheng, his expression solemn. "The current Sea of Rules is not peaceful."

"Although we know of your unmatched strength, the Sea of Rules is filled with many mysterious objects and unknown risks."

"Moreover, with the unrest in the Spirit Mountain Buddhist Sect, the dangers in the Sea of Rules are even greater than usual."

"If you don't wish to go, we won't force you."

Before he could finish, Qin Zheng waved his hand and said directly, "Friend Pei, there's no need for that. I won't go back on my word easily."

"Not to mention, the Buddhist Sect is insignificant and won't cause much of a stir."

After saying this, he turned his gaze towards Xu Donglai and nodded, "Then please, Xu Daoyou, lead the way."

His purpose in venturing into the Sea of Rules wasn't solely to fulfill his promise with Pei Qinhu; it was more to test if the Rule Artifacts could aid him.

Xu Donglai quickly nodded upon hearing this and instantly transformed into a streak of flowing light, departing.

Within the Sea of Rules, a disturbance targeting the Jade Void Palace had emerged, and his heart was filled with urgency at this moment.

Qin Zheng took a calm step forward, instantly disappearing from the Jade Purity Monastery.

From his appearance to his departure, not a sound was made, as if he had never existed.

In the room, Pei Qinhu stared at the spot where Qin Zheng had just been, his expression slightly dazed.

Even at this moment, the shock in his heart remained, despite having witnessed countless geniuses.

He himself was an unparalleled genius.

Yet, before Qin Zheng, he felt like a tiny spark before the sun, insignificant and incomparable.

The other Jade Void disciples were even more shocked, their expressions revealing their astonishment without restraint.

They had personally witnessed Qin Zheng's journey from the Fourth Stage Divine Treasury to the current Eighth Stage Divine Treasury!

The entire process had taken only a few years!

"Qin Daoyou," Fu Hai hesitated, his face filled with awe and complexity.

"How old is he now?"

As these words left his mouth, everyone present was startled.

A genius capable of perfecting the Fourth Stage Divine Treasury within a few years would likely not be too old.

Pei Qinhu's eyes glistened, and he unconsciously used the Heavenly Providence Treasury to activate the divination technique of the Jade Void lineage.

After only a few breaths, an answer suddenly emerged.

Boom!

The ground beneath him suddenly exploded, startling the other Jade Void disciples.

"It's fine! It's fine!"

Pei Qinhu shook his head, but his expression was somewhat dazed.

Fu Hai's heart stirred, and he quickly asked, "Dashi Xiong, how old is Qin Daoyou now?"

Pei Qinhu, with his formidable mental fortitude, swiftly organized his thoughts, shaking off the daze.

Then, he turned his gaze towards Fu Hai and the curious Jade Void disciple, speaking slowly, "Not even a hundred years old."

Boom!

Within the Jade Purity Monastery, several powerful auras suddenly soared into the sky, causing a violent tremor.

In the vast continent, endless chaos.

Two streaks of flowing light swiftly traversed.

Qin Zheng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, sensing that someone was divining his information.

He had let his guard down!

Instantly, his heart stirred, and he simultaneously displayed the Dao One Seal and the Ultimate Seal, swiftly concealing his information within the chaos, making it impossible to divine further.

At the same time, within his inner world, three divine artifacts emitted a faint glow, then slowly calmed down.

Using three Dao Realm artifacts to hide his information, even a Primordial Chaos expert would be unable to divine his secrets.

After completing this step, Qin Zheng's tensed heart gradually relaxed.

The entity divining his information likely had no ill intent, and they hadn't uncovered his critical secrets, or the Three Pure Ones' artifacts would have reacted autonomously.

Regardless, such a situation shouldn't occur again.

Qin Zheng thought to himself.

Xu Donglai didn't notice Qin Zheng's change in demeanor. At this moment, under the protection of the whisk, he swiftly flew through the dense chaos, rushing towards the Sea of Rules.

As Qin Zheng retracted his gaze from Xu Donglai, his heart stirred with new understanding.

The disturbance caused by the Buddhist Sect wasn't trivial!

Otherwise, Pei Qinhu wouldn't have reminded him, and Xu Donglai wouldn't have shown such urgency.

Additionally, the three auras he had glimpsed before arriving at the Jade Void Palace had also seemed hasty.

Perhaps his actions had angered the Spirit Mountain Buddhist Monastery, and unable to target him on the vast continent, they were causing chaos in the Sea of Rules, disrupting the Jade Void Palace.

After experiencing the Zen Staff Illusion, Qin Zheng had gained some understanding of the Primordial Chaos of the Spirit Mountain Buddhist Monastery.

He now had a clearer grasp of the essence of the Buddhist Sect on the vast continent.

In any case.

There was no need for restraint when dealing with them!
