Master of Untold Daos

Chapter 478 - Tough Choice

Chapter 478: Tough Choice

With the scriptures he was packing, he’d have smooth sailing until the Immortal realm. After which, he’d have to go out collecting again.

“Increase my realm to Chakra stage.”

“Ding! 12 million merits required. Continue?”

Chen Ming did the math, 20 years of merits will be gone just like that?

Thanks to his disciples getting busy with raising beasts, their cultivation was stuck at the Transcending realm, with a few lucky exceptions that became immortals. He only got about a million merits a year, most of which was from his legacy disciples while the others were having the time of their lives(slacking).

Those disciples’ heads grew bigger and now the 2nd stage Heart Enlightenment Fruits are as useful as feeding them to the dogs!

At least dogs get to be immortal beasts!

He took a deep breath. If even with the help of these fruits the merits income wouldn’t change, he would prepare a special surprise for these blokes.

“Continue.”

Inside his Dao Furnace, each page on the scripture had extra lines written. The golden book ebbed and sent out sounds of Dao that surrounded the entire Yan Mountain branch.

The disciples were cultivating in their courtyards when they heard them, “Master must be increasing his power.”

“What scriptures did he comprehended this time?”

“Listen, the sounds of Dao calms the heart.”

“Yeah!”

“Get to cultivating. I don’t think Master was lying when he said about having head senior sister educate us!”

“There’s also a huge gap between seniors and us. Even fifth senior brother is better than us!”

No Dao Palace existed in Chen Ming’s body, his foundation was the Dao Furnace. It bore thousands of scriptures.

And his Dao Seeds were permeated by these scriptures inside of it.

He, the perfect Limitless Dao Body is quite interesting. I’m more like a magic item now.

The Dao Furnace changed while the body stayed the same since only his realm went up.

“Increase my cultivation to Emergence stage.”

“Ding! You triggered an advancement mission, please kill a Gold Immortal. Reward: cultivation release.”

Chen Ming frowned, Kill a Gold Immortal?

The same scamming system lady as always, not one even a bit of a discount!

Then again, this mission didn’t say he had to do it himself. As for who had the best Gold Immortals to bully? Why Heavenly Court, of course. Step right up please, the best Gold Immortals to bully are Heavenly Court’s at a low, low price! Need only flip your hand and you’re done!

Didn’t Duan Shou say almost no Gold Immortal can handle him?

Yep, it’s time we have some fun.

Chen Ming went to ask him, “Duan Shou, what Gold Immortal under Nr. 6 is easiest to bully?”

Duan Shou thought a moment, brows knitted in concentration.

Kid, didn’t you say you’re among the best Gold Immortal out there? What’s with the frown?

You’re telling me Nr. 6’s Gold Immortals around here are a pain?

Duan Shou thought some more as if trying to make a clear distinction. After fifteen minutes, he said, “Sire Faceless, I think they all are. But it’s such a tough choice.”

Chen Ming: ...

Is this how the strong think?

When the eagle watched ants, it didn’t consider which was big or small, since they were all tiny...

Chen Ming continued, “Then chose one who is vile and evil. I am a good man, an altruist, and can’t go kill people willy-nilly.”

Duan Shou zoned out again. Scratching his head as he was clearly using all his faculties to come up with a perfect candidate.

No way! Are they all saints? Although our dear Immortal Master Chen flaunted himself as a bad man, he still had a sliver of conscience.

Chen Ming cut his focus short, “Doesn’t matter. Heavenly Court is our enemy and this is the path they chose. When we get to fighting all of this matter little.”

Duan Shou said, “Regarding who is evil, they all are. It’s such a hard decision. Take the Radiant Constellation’s Daoist Radiant for example. He is more than 3,000 years old and still sends his men to kidnap women, wanting to enjoy a virgin each day. He’s been doing this for a hundred years now!”

Chen Ming’s heart trembled, No wonder this Immortal Master is still single! This rotten bastard went and stole all the women! This has gone too far!

Duan Shou continued, “There’s also Prosperous Constellation’s Daoist Thriving, who likes virgin males. He raises them then...”

Chen Ming dismissed him, “Enough. We’ll go get the drop on Radiant Daoist and do Heaven’s work!”

Duan Shou looked dubiously at him, “Sire Faceless, you can’t use others in a fight between Faceless.”

“What are you taking my words for? Am I that kind of man? Do I look the part?”

“No!”

“Then it’s fine. At worse, we’ll just have to leave our name after killing him. This way we won’t break any rule. Great, let’s be off!”

“If we are to assassinate, Lu Qingxuan is better at it. He’s an assassin after all! ”

Chen Ming looked him in the eye, “Assassination? Stealth? Are you making it hard for Lu Qingxuan on purpose?”

Duan Shou nodded, convinced, “Then let’s go.”

Chen Ming went off in a black mist and landed on his shoulder, “Sire Faceless, I am more than enough. There’s no need for you to risk such dangers.”

Chen Ming shook his head, “How can I? This abomination will be personally dealt with by me, or I won’t be free of this hatred!”

The two toiled hard for a month before reaching Radiant Constellation. Duan Shou dressed up as a righteous cultivator with his Daoist robe and began to act the part.

Since it was a hit, Duan Shou had to be cautious. Arriving at Radiant Constellation River Office, Chen Ming was perched on his shoulder as Duan Shou entered a tavern to tune in on the latest gossip.

Chen Ming thought a Gold Immortal’s location was hard to get his hands on, but he overestimated the man as he got it in no time at all.
