Chapter 519 - 519: Hunting Gods of the Great Dao
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Dao Yan’s arrival did not immediately affect the Endless Void. Only a few experts knew about their arrival. The 3000 worlds in the calamity were still filled with killing intent and resentment.
As the Immortal Dao was located outside the Xuanhuang Great World, it was not completely involved in the storm of the great calamity. However, Hell had grown crazily due to the great calamity, and an endless stream of souls surged into Hell. As a result, the Head of Punishment had no choice but to urge the Celestial Emperor to develop the Immortal Dao.
As the reincarnation cycle of the Immortal Dao strengthened, the talent of people born under the Immortal Dao improved generation after generation, causing the entire Immortal Dao to improve rapidly.
Ever since Mu Lingluo attained the Taiyi Realm, Great Immortal Wang Chen followed closely behind. His breakthrough was not surprising. After all, he was the leader of the Earth Immortals and held the supreme treasure of the Dao Ancestor.
Just as the Heavenly Court and the cultivation world were looking forward to the next Taiyi Realm expert, the Celestial Emperor and the Heavenly Mother jointly created the Taiyi True Scripture and created an inheritance stone tablet in the Mental Wander Realm, shocking the cultivation world.
The Taiyi True Scripture was about how to attain the Taiyi Realm.
After that, the Celestial Emperor descended on the Spirit Mountain of Heavenly Jing and created the Taiyi Divine Monument on the mountain, obtaining the merit of the Heavenly Dao. A huge amount of merit fell from the sky and landed on the Celestial Emperor, shocking the citizens and cultivators of Heavenly Jing.
After the Jiang Clan’s imperial bloodline and Dao Lord Nirvana, the Celestial Emperor was the next person to obtain the merit of the Heavenly Dao. Even though the cultivation world did not know what the use of the merit of the Heavenly Dao was, they felt that it was definitely not simple with so many mighty figures fighting for it. As a result, more and more cultivators began to establish a sect and preach the Dao. Unfortunately, no one obtained the merit of the Heavenly Dao.
In the blink of an eye, another thousand years passed.
In the past thousand years, the biggest incident was when the Celestial Emperor announced that the God -Investiture Ceremony would be extended to once every three thousand years. This incident caused a considerable commotion in the human world. The cultivators in the mortal world felt that the Heavenly Court looked down on them, but there was nothing the Celestial Emperor could do. The quota for the legitimate gods on the Investiture of the
Gods began to be scarce, mainly because powerful martial artists from the Xuanhuang Great World had joined. Right now, it was not only those from the Immortal Dao who wanted to be conferred as gods.
There were also advantages to a powerful martial artist switching to immortal cultivation. In the Kunlun Field and the Heaven Realm, true qi and martial origin could be directly converted into spiritual energy, saving the boredom of accumulating Qi. Before reaching the corresponding realm, one only needed to comprehend the realm. However, there were also drawbacks to a martial artist switching to immortal cultivation. That was the limitation of their ideologies, which was hard to reverse.
33rd Heaven, Purple Cloud Palace.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes, and the Eye of the Great Dao on his forehead was faintly discernible. He calculated with his fingers and realized that this seclusion lasted for more than 1,100 years. During this period of time, the Immortal Dao had not been invaded by powerful enemies.
He woke up because someone was waiting for him outside the Kunlun Field. He was not in a hurry. He would first calculate the strongest expert within the system’s range.
[Requires 627 Heavenly Dao incense points. Do you wish to continue?] Good lord!
Compared to a thousand years ago, the highest strength value record had nearly doubled.
Jiang Changsheng felt that something was amiss and continued to calculate the second and third strongest experts.
The second strongest expert’s strength value exceeded 400 Heavenly Dao incense points, and so did the third strongest expert. The difference between them was not huge. When he calculated the fourth strongest expert, he was the existence whose strength value was at 344 Heavenly Dao incense points from a thousand years ago.
As he continued to calculate, the number of experts with strength values more than 200 Heavenly Dao incense points overturned his understanding. There were actually more than a hundred of them. This was definitely a massive change.
No wonder the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor suddenly came to find him.
Could it be that the martial artists from the Inner Void had arrived?
However, if the martial artists in the Inner Void were so powerful, why would Cangshi Heaven dispel the luck of the Martial Dao?
They could just directly suppress the opposing Great Dao forces.
As Jiang Changsheng calculated, he probed his spiritual will into the Kunlun Field and locked onto the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor who was waiting on a meteorite.
It had been thousands of years since they last met, but the strength of the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor had not improved. This was also a reflection of the vast majority of high-level existences. In a situation where their talent was insufficient and their luck was insufficient, it was possible for their strength to stagnate for ten thousand years or even a million years.
“What is it?”
The anxious Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor finally heard the Dao Ancestor’s voice and the uneasiness in his heart instantly dissipated.
He hastily said, “A transcendent force from the inner void has descended. The Yin Yang God was also attacked by a mysterious expert. Even though we were lucky enough to escape, I had wandered with him for thousands of years. Just two hundred years ago, the Yin Yang God was suppressed again by an even more powerful existence. Before he was suppressed, he helped me escape and asked me to send you a message. He said that there was a terrifying existence hunting the Gods of the Great Dao. He could not escape, and neither could you.” Hunting the Gods of the Great Dao?
Jiang Changsheng was surprised and thought to himself, ‘I’m not a God of the Great Dao.’
According to his understanding, when the calamity arrived, the 3000 Great Dao would manifest their divine power and transform into a god. Before the end of the calamity, they would be known as the Gods of the Great Tribulation. Only those who survived the calamity could be regarded as Gods of the Great Dao. The Yin Yang God was not a real God of the Great Dao. Perhaps the other party had the confidence to let the Yin Yang God live until the end of the calamity. “Doesn’t that mean you have nowhere to go now?”
Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded and the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor revealed an embarrassed expression.
Jiang Changsheng was very hesitant about taking in the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor.
The Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor could escape from the terrifying existence that had captured the Yin Yang God. To be honest, he felt that there might be something fishy going on.
However, on second thought, the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor had already arrived. If it was really aimed at him, it would be too late for him to hide.
He immediately disappeared from the hall and appeared beside the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor out of thin air. The Heaven and Earth Laughing
Ancestor seemed to have sensed something and subconsciously turned around. Coincidentally, he met the Eye of the Great Dao and froze, his eyes losing their luster.
As Jiang Changsheng read his memories, he used his spiritual will to examine his physical body and soul.
No one knew how long had passed.
When the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor woke up, he discovered that he was above a sea of clouds.
“This is…”
The Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor frowned and muttered to himself. He tried hard to recall his previous memories. Just as he was conversing with the Dao Ancestor, he suddenly saw a golden vertical eye.
“This is the Heavenly Court. Go and find the Celestial Emperor and become an Immortal God before heading to the Heaven Realm. Remember, don’t conserve your strength. This will determine your position in the Immortal Dao in the future.’
Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded in the Heaven and Earth Laughing
Ancestor’s ears. The Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor immediately smiled.
It seemed like the previous eye was the Dao Ancestor’s. Perhaps the Dao
Ancestor was worried about him. In any case, he finally had a place to stay.
Previously, when he worked for the Yin Yang God, he had offended most of the forces in the Endless Void. Now that the Yin Yang God was suppressed, he could only rely on the Immortal Dao.
He had long been interested in the Immortal Dao.
The Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor saw the South-Heaven Gate from afar and immediately flew over.
On the other side, Jiang Changsheng, who was in the Purple Cloud Palace, was recalling the memories of the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor.
It turned out that the reason why the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor escaped was because the Yin Yang God sensed the danger in advance and sent him into the turbulence of time and space, allowing him to avoid a calamity.
Of course, the Yin Yang God did not have good intentions. He probably wanted to tell Jiang Changsheng the news so that he could make preparations in advance. Perhaps by doing so, the Yin Yang God would have a chance of survival.
According to the conversation between the Heaven and Earth Laughing
Ancestor and the Yin Yang God, Jiang Changsheng learned that the Yin Yang God thought he was a God of the Great Tribulation. That was why the Yin Yang God asked the Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor to send that message.
The Heaven and Earth Laughing Ancestor did not see the scene of the Yin Yang God being suppressed with his own eyes. Just feeling that the shackles of Yin and Yang on him had disappeared, he determined that the Yin Yang God was suppressed.
“How powerful is the existence that captured the Yin Yang God?” Jiang Changsheng asked internally.
[Requires 344 Heavenly Dao incense points. Do you wish to continue?] NO!
It seemed like it was that powerful existence from a thousand years ago.
Jiang Changsheng had a feeling that this expert with a strength value of 344 Heavenly Dao incense points was working for the expert with the strength value of 627 Heavenly Dao incense points. This was an extremely powerful force.
He began to sense the thoughts of the believers of the Xuanhuang Great World and did not notice such a huge beast. At present, the influential figures in the 3000 worlds were the Supreme Kunlun of the Supreme Dao and the Emperor Rong of the Emperor Clan. The two of them had fought several times and it was hard to determine the winner. They were the most dazzling existences in the calamity.
It seemed like that mysterious force did not intend to stir up the situation of the great calamity. At least not for the time being. Their goal was to capture the Gods of the Great Dao.
Jiang Changsheng picked up the Purple Crystal Gourd and probed it with his spiritual will.
The God of Misfortune and the God of Inner Demons were still holding on. However, they had been silent for a long time and did not have the strength to curse.
“Do you know which force will hunt you?”
Jiang Changsheng’s voice resounded throughout the Purple Crystal Gourd and the two gods who were meditating immediately opened their eyes.
“Hunt us? How is that possible!”
The God of Inner Demons subconsciously retorted, but he seemed to have thought of something and his expression changed drastically.
The God of Misfortune also thought of something and his body trembled.
This surprised Jiang Changsheng. The two gods had not been so afraid after being tortured by him for so long. Now, they were scared out of their wits just by thinking of a certain force?
Jiang Changsheng added, “The Yin Yang God has been captured. Before he left, he informed me that the Gods of the Great Dao are in a very dangerous situation. Are you still unwilling to reveal it?”
The God of Inner Demons sighed and said, “We, Gods of the Great Dao, are above all living beings of the Great Dao. Those who can hunt us are naturally those beings above the Great Dao.”
Beings above the Great Dao?
Jiang Changsheng was frightened. He was still so far away from the end of the Great Dao, but now, he needed to face beings above the Great Dao. At that moment, he already had many places to run to.
The God of Inner Demons continued to narrate. It turned out that a long time ago, a group of experts came to capture them. They claimed to be from an orthodoxy where the Great Dao reigned supreme, and their name was Dao Yan.
At that time, it was an era where the Ancient Arts reigned supreme. Just as the calamity arrived, the experts of the Ancient Arts regarded the Dao Yan as invaders and started a huge war. Ultimately, they expelled the Dao Yan at an extremely tragic price. However, the forces of the Ancient Arts orthodoxy were greatly weakened as a result. Nine out of the ten top experts died, giving other ambitious forces an opportunity. Ultimately, the Ancient Arts was defeated and the Martial Dao rose.
According to the God of Inner Demons, the Dao Yan was an orthodoxy. Although these invaders were not above the Great Dao yet, they had the strength to sweep through the Endless Void.
Hearing this, Jiang Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that they were not above the Great Dao.
However, the other party’s background was so powerful that they could not be provoked.
Jiang Changsheng decided to imitate Martial Dao and wait for the Dao Yan to leave before coming out.
The Dao Yan’s experts were only here for the Gods of Great Dao and were not interested in controlling the Endless Void. They probably looked down on it.
Now came the problem.
The Yin Yang God believed that he was a God of the Great Dao. Would the Dao Yan also think so?
Jiang Changsheng asked, “The Yin Yang God believes that I am also a God of the
Great Tribulation. What do you think?”
The God of Misfortune sneered and said, “How is that possible? Are you even worthy of competing with us? The Yin Yang God has just been born, and he can’t distinguish the essential difference between the powers of the Great Dao and Great Dao Divine Spirits.. You’re merely a mortal with the help of the powers of the Great Dao!”
