In just the blink of an eye, Jiang Ming had read through the ‘Status’ of the Dao Patriarch Xing Chen. He couldn’t help sighing in his heart that the Dao Patriarch had indeed went through many obstacles. Nevertheless, Jiang Ming could not tell whether it was the Dao Patriarch himself who had refined the remnant soul of Hei Tian, or it was Hei Tian who took the initiative to integrate into the Dao Patriarch quietly and subtly. But because the name of Hei Tian, which was put in a bracket behind the Dao Patriarch name alone, could explain a lot of things.
“This is just a joke of the world and life?” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen couldn’t help but shake his head. “Fellow Daoist, you’re too extreme. Look at all things in this world, every life is trying hard to live, to make progress and to radiate their own splendor of life. All of them are competing to transcend themselves. Hence, how can it be a joke? Even though we are on top of the world, overseeing the world, and even manipulating the authority of the universe, we are in fact, just a member of the hundreds and millions of living things!”
“You are indeed the Dao Patriarch. With the extraordinary heart and attitude of yours, you should really be the model of my generation.” Jiang Ming chuckled.
With their current achievement, what else they couldn’t see through? Debating was merely to show the splendid discussion of Daoism. In fact, it was a petty matter to both the Dao Patriarch and Jiang Ming.
“Do you want to protect them?” Jiang Ming changed the topic of the conversation and turned to look at Yin Yang Saint Lord and the other two.
The three had almost recovered, which was the horror of the Saints in their own world. If it wasn’t because they were injured, they would have recovered to their best state.
Yin Yang Saint Lord and the other two Saint Lords’ hearts missed a beat. They were in fact, afraid of Jiang Ming. They had to pay attention to Jiang Ming whether because Jiang Ming had killed Reincarnation Saint Lord in an instant, or because Jiang Ming was capable of detonating Dao Vessels. They even saw Jiang Ming as an extremely dangerous person when they learned that Jiang Ming had taken the path of World Dao.
“They are my disciples!” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen grinned. “What about you letting them go for my sake?”
“Although you are the Dao Patriarch, you’re merely the Dao Patriarch of this world. Moreover, we’ve just met.” Jiang Ming shook his head.
Although the title of Dao Patriarch was of high status, it was not a valid title to Jiang Ming. Moreover, Jiang Ming knew that the Dao Patriarch wanted to kill him, as shown by the relationship value of -88.
“Why do you want to do so!” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen sighed. Following that, an aura surged from his body, evoking the power of the world’s origin in an instant to control the authority of the world.
He moved the stars, taking all of them to the endless space. The void distorted, and the laws changed.
“In this Xuanhuang Great Chiliocosm, I’m the Dao, the god, the law, the morality, the truth, the order, and the ultimate ruler.” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen showed an icy cold expression. He had an incomparably arrogant demeanor, incomparably strong aura, and incomparably icy-cold eyes.
......
“Everything in this great universe is in my control.” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen added, “Yin Yang and the other five were a step slower than I was in Dao sanctification. Even if they were just a step slower, they would be gradually becoming a lot slower than I do. I lured them with the method of sanctifying Dao, and oppressed them with invincible power, so that they had to bow down and recognise me as their master. When they bow down to me, I will take away part of their luck. With the support of their luck after they have sanctified their Daos, in addition to me gathering 40 percent of the world’s luck by preaching throughout the world, do you know what this means?”
Yin Yang and the other two Saint Lords had a change in their expression. Although they had guessed it, they had not heard from the Dao Patriarch himself. Now that they had heard it, they inexplicably felt chills run down their spines, and they felt the Dao Patriarch at this moment was very unfamiliar.
“Luck is intangible yet it exists.” Jiang Ming nodded. “Therefore, you managed to improve your cultivation base up to the perfect stage of the Saint Realm swiftly. Meanwhile, they can’t improve their cultivation base at a fast rate because you have taken away their luck. And for the 40 percent of luck you obtained from the world is akin to you as the child of the world.”
“Exactly.” The Dao Patriarch Xing Chen admitted. He then grinned, “It should be said that I’m of a higher status than the child of the world. I’m considered a representative of heaven, the leader of the world. Nevertheless, it’s still difficult for me to break the shackles of the world to improve further. However, I’m the only ruler here in this world. Even if the six of them were to join hands after all of them had advanced into the perfect stage of Saint Realm, they wouldn’t be my match. Fellow Daoist, do you think you are still confident in confronting me?”
“Why are you talking so much?” Jiang Ming had a strange expression flashed across his face. “I think you aren’t confident enough to deal with me, are you? After all, I’m a complete stranger to you, and you’re afraid of my combat power I’ve shown earlier. Hence, you thought of testing me through language to see if I will be a coward?”
Jiang Ming hesitated before he continued, “These are your secrets that you shouldn’t have told them. Yet, you revealed all of them. I think you want to abandon them, right?”
“Master!” Yin Yang Sain Lord was shocked, and retreated afar. Both Five Elemental Saint Lord, and Creation Saint Lord retreated too. They had a bad premonition when Jiang Ming slightly pointed out. After all, they were too familiar with their Dao Patriarch.
“Master, is what he said true?” Creation Saint Lord asked.
“We’re after all, of the master-disciples relationship. I have given you grace through preaching, but you can’t repay it. However, the principle of heaven and earth says that if you enjoy it, you must repay it.” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen grinned.
“Why? We didn’t do anything wrong, did we?” Five Elemental Saint Lord exclaimed.
“No!”
“Now that the enemy is here, with the three of us, don’t you have a better chance of winning?”
“Of course!”
“Then why are you abandoning us?”
“Because of the three of you, I have a better chance of winning. This kid not only has a mysterious background, his cultivation base is strong and his special abilities peerless. I don’t know what other trump cards he has. Hence, to play safe, I’ve a higher chance with you three around.”
“Then why…” The Creation Saint Lord chimed in but before she could finish her sentence, she realized what the Dao Patriarch meant. Her expression changed greatly. Both Yin Yang and Five Elemental were the same.
They were, after all, the Saints. Hence, they could easily understand why the Dao Patriarch wanted to abandon them with just some thoughts.
“Did you put something on them? Once evoked, you’d be able to completely manipulate them. Following that, you’d be able to use the life of the three to fully test my capability.” Jiang Ming speculated.
“What type of means do you need to manipulate the Saints for your own use?” Jiang Ming frowned as he pondered. “I think you’d have to take action before they manage to sanctify their Daos. Otherwise, it would be difficult.”
“You’re right!” Dao Patriarch Xing Chen clasped his hands. “To be able to speculate the means that I’ve used, you’re indeed an expert from the Sea of Chaos. Amazing!”
“Xing Chen!” Yin Yang Saint Lord gnashed his teeth in anger. “When you preached in the Star Palace back then, you said that there are six positions of Saint in the world. As long as we merge with the Hongmeng Qi, we can communicate with the Natural Laws of Heaven and sanctify the Saint Realm. As for the Hongmeng Qi, you said that it’s from the encounters you had after you sanctified Dao, and you prepared them exclusively for your own disciples! It turns out that Hongmeng Qi was your means?”
They recalled such a situation.
