Chapter 595: Walking the Dao, Walking the Dao!
Chapter 595: Walking the Dao, Walking the Dao!
Within the Great Wilderness Universe, chaos reigned, resembling an apocalyptic scene. The weak trembled in fear, while the strong paled in shock. A group of Supreme Beings, Divine Lords, and other powerful beings witnessed the skeletal remains and roared in anger, charging towards the corpse, determined to destroy it and halt its progress.
However, an invisible barrier seemed to block their path, preventing them from getting close. As they continued, their strength appeared to be drained away.
The universe seemed to be losing its life force, and the essence energy became violent, surging towards the outside. Looking up, they saw a massive gap, and beyond the universe, there was an indeterminate chaos land.
Despair filled everyone's hearts.
Outside the universe, Hellfire transformed into rolling waves of blood, attempting to fill the gap and burn its own core energy to persist. At this moment, a green light shone upon the chaos.
In that instant, it was as if a light had illuminated the darkness.
"Quick, seize that light!"
Hellfire roared.
"Tian Zi, seize that light quickly and strengthen the Heavenly Dao, strengthen the universe!"
Hellfire, in the form of blood waves, enveloped the Heavenly Principle Rule Power, aiming to capture the light and obtain the evolution within.
In this moment, as the old era faded and a new one emerged, a green light shone through the chaos, tearing through the haze, and the next era began.
The Immortal Sovereign staggered a few steps, his face filled with reluctance and anger. He muttered to himself, "Why is it so fast!"
Too late!
Ultimately, they were a step too late!
The energy of the Great Wilderness Universe had just begun to surge, yet before it could be sacrificed, the next era had already commenced. All their preparations and long-term plans were now in vain.
The Black Chi King's expression was complex, and he sighed, "Another era has begun!"
The start of this era was different from previous ones. It not only marked the beginning of a new era but also signified that change was imminent.
Boom!
At this moment, all the grey-robed figures looked dejected and reluctant. Even those who had been attacking the Great Wilderness, including the powerful beings from various divine temples, had stopped their assault, seeing no further need to continue.
Everything was already too late!
The long-term plans had come to naught!
The green light tore through the haze, like a vast path, spanning the Unchanging Land. A new era was being born.
Boom!
Witch Demon and the others soared into the sky, reaching for the light, hoping to gain evolution as they had before.
The previous era had begun with a purple light, but this new era started with a green light, perhaps indicating different evolutions.
The Black Chi King rose into the air and entered the green light, basking in its radiance. The Jade Courtyard Sovereign also recalled all the Jade People, and his body entered the green light.
The Great Glutton King did the same!
The Immortal Divine Armor separated from the Immortal Sovereign, seemingly drawn by the light, and entered it willingly. Meanwhile, the Immortal Sovereign crouched on the ground, clutching his head in pain, anger, and reluctance.
He roared, expressing his rage and frustration, all his negative emotions pouring out.
"How beautiful!"
Su Lingxiu murmured to herself.
As the Heavenly Dao permeated, the green light pierced through it, seemingly bringing about some changes while also maintaining a sense of familiarity. Witch Demon and the others absorbed the green light, drawing it into their bodies.
Meng Chong, Su Lingxiu, Fang Hao, Jiang Bu Ping, and others also stepped into the green light. Under their control, a massive flying vessel entered the green light.
Numerous powerful beings bathed in the green light. Xu Yan approached, stepping onto the light, and as he observed the figures within, a scene from his master's teachings on walking the Dao flashed in his mind—a journey on the vast and mysterious Dao with no end in sight.
This scene seemed to capture the essence of walking the Dao.
Enlightenment flooded Xu Yan's mind, and he sat in meditation. The green light entered his body, seemingly disappearing without a trace. In that moment, he seemed to sense the existence of the vast and mysterious Dao, as if glimpsing the profound and boundless path.
Walking the Dao, walking the Dao!
As the green light weakened, a new era had begun, a new cycle of time was born, and the haze was descending once more.
"So, this is how one can walk the Dao!"
In this moment, Xu Yan gained enlightenment on the method of walking the Dao and understood how to journey on the vast path.
His aura strengthened, and although he had just entered the Creation Realm, the green light permeated the universe, allowing him to sense the vast and mysterious Dao and the endless evolution. His strength increased further.
Small Accomplishment of Creation Realm!
Xu Yan remained immersed in his understanding of the Dao, and as the essence of the Dao gathered, the endless evolution continued, and his strength continued to grow even after breaking through to the Small Accomplishment of Creation Realm.
In one morning, he had enlightened the Dao and evolved the universe.
Li Xuan Youran sat calmly, observing the green light, witnessing the passage of time, the opening of a new era. He did not seek to obtain the green light, as it held no use for him.
Watching the crowd within the light and gazing upon the Great Wilderness Universe, a smile appeared on his face. With the appearance of the green light, he also gained insight into the essence of the Unchanging Land and saw through the cycle of time.
The Immortal Sovereign's plan had failed, and he was in a state of collapse. He couldn't accept this outcome after his long years of perseverance, planning, and arrangements, all for naught.
The blow to him was immense!
After all, he had sacrificed too much for these arrangements, all for this moment.
At this moment, the Golden Book of the Dao radiated with golden light, as if it were about to unravel. The book was filled with the profound and unfathomable mysteries of the Dao.
"Your disciple Xu Yan, has comprehended the method of walking the Dao. You have broken through the Realm of Walking the Dao. You walk the Dao, and within it, you walk the Great Dao."
A thunderous roar shook the air.
Li Xuan felt as if he were undergoing endless transcendence. At one moment, the ground beneath his feet seemed infinite, with no end in sight and no boundaries to the vast and mysterious Dao.
The infinite mysteries of the Dao were revealed in an instant, as if he had suddenly understood everything in the world. Everything seemed to be beneath his feet, and all was under the Dao.
With a wave of his hand, he could manipulate time, create everything, and walk the Great Dao, unbound by the world.
Walk the Dao! Walk the Dao!
Li Xuan felt calm and peaceful, without excitement or agitation. It was as if he had always walked above the Dao, and nothing could stir his emotions.
With one step forward, his strength increased, and the power of the Dao grew stronger. More of the Dao's mysteries were within his grasp.
Li Xuan's face broke into a smile. The halo of the Ancestor of the Dao surrounded him, and in his hand, he held a book that seemed even more profound and mysterious than the Dao itself. He took a step forward, and then another.
As he walked further, he gradually felt the strain. A sense of fatigue washed over him, like an ordinary person who had walked for too long and too far, their physical strength unable to continue.
"You have walked ten li."
The Golden Book of the Dao conveyed this message.
Li Xuan stopped, choosing not to continue, even though he could have rested and resumed his journey. But he didn't.
"Relying on myself is too tiring. I'm not suited for ascetic cultivation."
Li Xuan smiled. It seemed that relying on his disciple was the way to go.
Now that he had walked ten li, there were no more threats in the world. There was no need for him to continue his arduous journey; when his disciple walked the Dao, he would naturally gain a hundredfold increase in strength.
The green light had faded, and the hazy mist descended once more. Everyone felt a sense of desolation, as if they had fallen back into darkness from the light.
The Great Wilderness Heavenly Dao had been restored, but Taicang's skeletal remains still hovered above the world. Without the control of the Immortal Sovereign, they no longer seemed to be breaking through the core primordial energy of the world.
Everything had come to an end.
"What kind of evolution is this green light?"
The Witch Demon looked at Ao Hong with confusion.
"I don't know!"
Ao Hong shook his head, equally perplexed.
There seemed to be some changes, yet at the same time, there seemed to be none. But they had indeed obtained the green light.
Unlike the previous time they obtained the purple light, this time, they had no clues, and for a while, they couldn't understand what changes the green light had brought.
"My connection to the world's energy has been restored, and my potential seems to have been unlocked."
Hellfire spoke thoughtfully.
"The green light, what a fortunate evolution. I've broken through."
Meng Chong exclaimed.
He had reached the completion of the Realm of Establishing the Dao, just half a step away from breaking through the Realm of Evolution.
"Me too!"
Su Ling Xiu's face lit up with joy.
Fang Hao and Jiang Bu Ping nodded in agreement.
Then they looked at Xu Yan.
"Just half a step away from breaking through the Great Perfection of the Realm of Evolution."
Xu Yan smiled.
For him, the greatest gain wasn't the increase in strength, but the fact that he had finally comprehended the method of walking the Dao and sensed the existence of the vast and mysterious Dao.
The Witch Demon and the others blinked, wondering why their strength didn't seem to have changed much. The only change was that their injuries and fatigue from the great battle had vanished.
In their hearts, they sighed, perhaps this was the greatest difference between them and the direct disciples of the Ancestor of the Dao.
"The Heavenly Dao has gained evolution."
Tian Zi spoke thoughtfully.
"Ah! Why! Why!"
Suddenly, a near-broken howl echoed.
Everyone looked over and saw the Immortal Sovereign, kneeling with his hands not covering his head, emitting a painful and broken roar. His aura shook the four directions, stirring the Unchanging Land and whipping up a storm.
Not far from the Immortal Sovereign, the Black Chi King and the Jade Courtyard Sovereign watched silently, their thoughts unknown.
As for the True Spirits, they had long since vanished into the hazy mist.
The Great Glutton King hadn't left, but he moved his body away from the Immortal Sovereign, fearing that the Immortal Sovereign might seek revenge.
"Sovereign!"
A group of Divine Temple experts, their faces filled with sadness, knelt before the Immortal Sovereign, weeping bitterly.
"Ah! Why!"
The Immortal Sovereign continued to howl, venting his emotions.
"Is he going crazy?" Su Ling Xiu exclaimed in surprise as she watched the Immortal Sovereign's frenzied roar.
"Serves him right!" Tian Zi said coldly.
"Who told him to covet the world? Who told him to kill Taicang and not even spare his bones!" Tian Zi's resentment grew as she spoke.
"Indeed, he deserves it!" The Witch Demon and the others nodded in agreement.
The Immortal Sovereign was their nemesis, and no matter how pitiful he looked at this moment, they felt no sympathy; instead, they were thrilled.
Ming Yu observed silently, and a hint of sigh could be seen in her expression. After all, the Immortal Sovereign was renowned in Taihao, and she, the ruler of the Crystal Jade Mountain, couldn't compare.
Seeing such a powerful being reduced to this state, how could one not sigh in lament?
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the Immortal Sovereign as he continued his crazed howls, teetering on the edge of collapse. It was evident that this failure had dealt him a severe mental blow.
As the Immortal Sovereign roared, his power erupted, and he made no attempt to conceal his strength. The crowd was shocked by the Immortal Sovereign's formidable might.
"My current strength is still slightly inferior!" Xu Yan couldn't help but exclaim.
He had already stepped into the threshold of the Great Perfection of Creation Realm, but even so, his power was still slightly inferior to the Immortal Sovereign, which further demonstrated the latter's immense strength.
If the Immortal Sovereign was this powerful, then the Black Chi King and the Jade Courtyard Sovereign were no weaker.
On the other hand, the Great Glutton King was a step behind.
The true peak powerhouses of the Unchanging Land were the Black Chi King and the Jade Courtyard Sovereign, while the Immortal Sovereign, though also from the Unchanging Land, was originally from the Taihao Realm.
"Ming Yu, how many powerful beings like the Immortal Sovereign are there in the Taihao Realm?" Xu Yan asked curiously.
Ming Yu shook her head and replied, "There shouldn't be any beings with such strength in the Taihao Realm. The Immortal Sovereign's power must have increased after his breakthrough in the Unchanging Land."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan couldn't help but think of that beam of light. The Immortal Sovereign had been exiled to the Unchanging Land for a long time, and he must have experienced the evolution of time and the opening of new eras more than once, gaining the benefits of that light.
However, he was now reaching his limit. The benefits from that light had a cap.
After venting his frustration through his roars, the Immortal Sovereign seemed to calm down. The Immortal Armor enveloped him once more as he slowly stood up, his eyes bloodshot. Step by step, he approached the Great Wilderness.
"He's not willing to accept defeat and wants to take action himself?" Tian Zi frowned as she spoke.
"If so, I'll give him a lesson," Xu Yan said eagerly.
Behind the Immortal Sovereign was a group of powerful beings from the Divine Temple. The rest were the exiles from Taihao, and the Black Chi King and the Jade Courtyard Sovereign exchanged glances, slowly following behind.
The Great Glutton King hesitated for a moment but eventually followed, ready to flee at the first sign of trouble.
Finally, the Immortal Sovereign reached the outskirts of the Great Wilderness and stopped.
His breathing was heavy, his eyes bloodshot, and his face contorted. He glared at Tian Zi and the others, looking at the Great Wilderness, at Taicang's remains, and finally, his gaze fell upon Li Xuan.
However, Li Xuan paid no heed to the Immortal Sovereign. After stepping into the Dao, he saw everything in the world, including the Unchanging Land and the Taihao Realm.
"So, this is the Taihao Realm and the Unchanging Land," Li Xuan marveled in his heart.
The Unchanging Land was in motion, and its edges were changing. However, by following the rules of the Unchanging Land, one could reach its edges and connect with the Taihao Realm.
The Taihao Realm was much larger than the Great Wilderness Universe, but it was far inferior to the Unchanging Land. After all, the Unchanging Land was, to some extent, constantly expanding slowly.
The Unchanging Land continued to expand, while the Taihao Realm operated along its edges, co-existing and interdependent. In a sense, the Taihao Realm was the Yang, and the Unchanging Land was the Yin.
However, the Yin exceeded the Yang, leading to a Yin-Yang imbalance, which caused some problems.
Li Xuan immediately understood the reason for the Yin-Yang imbalance. At the bottom of the Taihao Realm, there was a massive cage imprisoning a powerful being.
This powerful being was the source of all the changes, and the unknown aura Ming Yu had sensed earlier originated from it.
