519 Jiang Ming Was Taken Aback
Within the Chaos Primordial Land, rivers of spiritual liquid were formed and there were even wisps of innate spiritual essence as well. The goodness and beauty of the environment here was far beyond imagination.
Jiang Ming held his junior sister in his arms as he paced through the skies and walk through sea of flowers, leaving their unique aura wherever they went pass; that or they’d stay around lakes with myriad luminance brimming, frolicking within and leaving traces of their essence and so on.
It didn’t matter if it was mountains or rivers, forbidden lands or dangerous territories, nothing could stop their strides.
On this day, they arrived at the Heavenly Venerate Dao Square.
!!
The owner of the Heavenly Venerate Dao Square was an ancient being, who had existed since a very long time ago. He was a Quasi-Dao Patriarch Expert. Other than the Dao Patriarch, there were very few who could compare to him. Hence, he had an extraordinary status.
Within the Dao Square, there were naturally numerous experts within.
“This is your master’s sect.” Jiang Ming pointed ahead and smiled as he said so.
“My master’s sect!” Linglong felt a little complicated.
When she first obtained the Heavenly Order, she obtained a lot of inheritance from it, which was somewhat helpful towards her cultivation.
By now, she had long understood the truth. The Heavenly Order was an object of channeling. Once a person passes the trial, the expert would be considered to have passed the test and would be guided over, allowing him or her to descend into a simulated Dao Square to conduct their cultivation.
The Dao which this Quasi-Dao Patriarch had comprehended was the True Illusion Dao. Although he wasn’t comparable to a real Dao Patriarch, he was able to achieve some unimaginable means through the Heavenly Order.
“Dao Patriarch of Soul!” Heavenly Venerated paced over in the air, clasped his hands and gave Jiang Ming a bow. This was a sign of respect for Dao Patriarchs.
He sensed Jiang Ming’s arrival and naturally had to come out to meet him.
“Heavenly Venerate!” Jiang Ming clasped his hands as well. “We are kind of destined by fate.”
“Heavenly Venerate!” Linglong took out the Heavenly Order.
“Never would I have thought that we had such fate to meet each other.” The Heavenly Venerate was quite surprised. When he looked at Linglong, he felt his scalp tingling. “It seems that Fellow Daoist’s cultivation realm is actually no longer weaker than mine. No, you’re already stronger than me. This is unbelievable! Truly unbelievable!”
“It’s all because of Senior Brother’s help.” Linglong revealed a smile on her face.
“This is even more unbelievable!” Heavenly Venerate exclaimed.
Jiang Ming nodded his head.
To have nurtured an existence up to the pinnacle stage of the Lord Saint in such a short time was more than unbelievable. It was simply beyond common sense.
The two of them did not stay much longer. After chatting for a while more, they stepped off into the air and continued on their journey.
A few moments later, several people appeared beside the Heavenly Venerate.
“Upon advancing into the Dao Patriarch Realm, he managed to suppress two Dao Patriarchs already. He possesses the supreme power of suppressing the whole Chaos Primordial Land. Master, is that the Dao Patriarch of Soul?” inquired a white-clothed disciple who was shocked to his soul.
The Heavenly Venerate nodded and continued, “That person by his side is Linglong. She obtained the Heavenly Order about 100 years ago and once did her cultivation within. Now, she has already reached the pinnacle stage of Lord Saint Realm.”
“Reach the pinnacle stage of Lord Saint Realm in just a hundred-year time? How is that possible?”
“Nothing is impossible. The Dao Patriarch of Soul himself is a person full of miracles. Those around him naturally cannot be regarded by common sense. In any case, with this relationship of his, if you encounter difficulties while wandering throughout the world, you can go ask for help from the Tianyuan Sacred Land.”
Somewhere far away, Jiang Ming was smiling while asking Linglong, “Girl, I thought that you might enter the Heavenly Venerate Dao Square and put on a good show! Never thought that we would just stay for a little while. This didn’t seem like your intention.”
“It doesn’t feel very interesting either. Not as meaningful as this trip of ours!”
“Alright then! Let’s go!”
“Senior brother, how about we just lie in white clouds together? With you below and me on top, we’ll flow along with the white clouds and wander throughout the Chaos Primordial Land.”
“Goodness! To think that you’d actually have such wild thoughts!”
“Is that a yes or a no?”
“Asking me if it’s a yes? You’re just asking for a beating.”
There was naturally nothing that couldn’t be discussed among a young couple.
Time flowed by slowly.It was almost time for the late Dao Patriarch’s cultivation site to open itself.
Yet, both Jiang Ming and Linglong did not care about it at all.
Over on the northern side of the Chaos Primordial Land however, there were a large number of experts gathered. The weakest among them were even of the Saint Realm and there wasn’t a lack of Lord Saints as well. This was because all of them wanted to head into the cultivation site of the late Dao Patriarch for a look and to see if there were any wordings left behind by the Dao Patriarch about the Chaos Realm.
On this day, the Jiang Ming and Linglong stopped by on a mountain top.
A living being could be seen sitting cross-legged at the peak of the mountain. There was a tea table in front of him, with mists rising above the already brewed teapot. Surprisingly, this even evolved into a phenomenon unique to the rules of the Chaos.
This living being was a Chaos Expert, the Dao Patriarch of Darkness. He was a being who sanctified the Chaos Dao of Darkness.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, Dao Patriarch of Soul. I thought you would pass by my place before, but instead you went further and further. I had no choice but to come over and stop you on your tracks.” Dao Patriarch of Darkness laughed. “Both of you, please!”
Jiang Ming sat himself down and couldn’t help but ask, “Dao Patriarch of Darkness, the fact that you were looking for me. Are you wanting to ask if I sanctified my Dao through the Supreme Pagoda?”
“That’s right!” Dao Patriarch of Darkness’s eyes lit up, “It’s only within the Supreme Pagoda that you are able to grow up at such a rapid pace. That place is connected to the boundless Sea of Chaos after all. With countless geniuses and peerless experts within, one would be able to gather boundless resources if utilized properly. Even more so, if the person becomes the Group Admin, he or she can even travel into the Hongmeng Primordial Land for their cultivation.”
“If that’s the case then we’re actually considered to be from the same clan!” Jiang Ming remarked. “I was the Group Admin not long ago. Since my combat ability was extremely powerful, I managed to collect more than tens of millions of points there.”
“God damn! Tens and millions of points?” The Dao Patriarch of Darkness lost his cool. “Back in the year, I was extremely gifted and managed to overwhelm countless geniuses of the Sea of Chaos. I became the Group Admin of the Mortal Group and also the Immortal Group. With my heaven-defying combat ability, I managed to forcibly break through the Battle Towers, condense my Saint Soul. The points I accumulated back then were only a few million. I thought that my achievement was already a record that can’t be broken by those of the past nor would it be possible for those of the future. Who would’ve thought that you were able to accumulate that many points. It’s no wonder that you grew up so fast. You’re really a monster. That’s not right…”
He paused for a while before hesitantly asked, “If that’s the case, advancing to the Lord Saint Realm would already be the limit. However, you managed to sanctify the Chaos Realm in such a short period of time. Fellow Daoist, you have also traveled into the lands of the Masters, right?”
Jiang Ming shook his head. “No I didn’t. It’s just that I’ve acquired other great fortunes, that’s all. Fellow Daoist, what kind of existence is the master?” Beyond the Sea of Chaos? The legendary Hongmeng Chiliocosm?”
“Other great fortunes!” The Dao Patriarch of Darkness pondered for a while but didn’t ask in detail. To ask further would be overstepping the person’s boundary already.
“Alas, the Master’s territory!” There was a rather complicated look on Dao Patriarch of Darkness’s face. “I guess it doesn’t hurt to talk to you about it. That place is an incomparably huge world. The cultivation environment is far better than that of the Chaos Primordial Land. Other than the Center Zone, when you look around all directions, all the other parts are filled with boundless dangers. However, these dangers seem to have been set up specifically to temper us. There are a lot of experts there and were all brought over after passing the Supreme Pagoda’s test. But once you get there, you will never be able to return unless you sanctify the Chaos Realm.”
“Such harsh conditions?” Jiang Ming was surprised. “Isn’t it divided into the core, inner and outer sects?”
“It is!” Dao Patriarch of Darkness nodded his head and continued, “Because of the distinction, the cultivation environment is naturally different. Some examples would be the concentration of the Chaos Spiritual Essence, the sensitivity of enlightening the Great Dao and many more.”
“Is there existence beyond the Chaos Realm? ”
“There isn’t any there. However, I’ve heard from some of the seniors that there were quite a number of existences of the pinnacle stage of the Chaos Realm. However, those experts have long since disappeared. Perhaps they’ve transcended the Chaos Realm.” As Dao Patriarch of Darkness continued to explain, he was also in slight confusion himself. “Where would we end up after transcending the Chaos? Planar world, small chilicosom, middle chiliocosm, great chiliocosm and then the Sea of Chaos. What would the existence that transcends from here on out? Upon transcendence, is there a realm of higher level of heaven and earth?”
This wasn’t something that the Dao Patriarch of Darkness was confused about, but it was the common confusion among all of the experts who had achieved a certain degree in their path of cultivation. It felt the same as opening a nesting doll, no one knew if there was an end to it.
“Alas, transcendence beyond the Chaos. Let’s just take one step at a time and see how it goes.” Jiang Ming would find himself confused at times. However, he had his junior sister with him and felt that it was best to grasp onto the current moment. “Can you still return?”
“I can! It’s just that it takes an interval of ten thousand years to do so. When the time comes, I could come and go anytime.” As the Dao Patriarch of Darkness said so, he blurted a remark that was somewhat eccentric. “That place is known as Tianyuan Realm, exactly the same name as your Dao Domain.”
“Tianyuan Realm?” Jiang Ming was taken aback.
