Chapter 868: Chaotic Dao Mark! Peerless Ten Consecutive Tries! (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Shi Xuan took back Shi Qianhan, he checked his physical condition and realized that Shi Qianhan’s cultivation level had been greatly damaged. The nine Law Dao Marks of the Water Origin had all dissipated, and his tens of thousands of years of bitter cultivation were gone. His face instantly darkened.
However, he did not say a word. He only took a deep look at Han Zhao before transforming into a golden rainbow that carried Shi Qianhan’s body and flew into the depths of the wilderness.
In an instant, Shi Xuan disappeared from the range of Han Zhao’s divine sense.
After confirming that Shi Xuan had left, Han Zhao completely dispersed the Reincarnation Spirit Domain and bowed respectfully to Lan Luo, who was sizing him up. “Junior Han Zhao thanks Senior for your help!”
“Fellow Daoist Han is quite impressive. Since ancient times, you’re probably the first person to threaten the Dao Ancestor with an Immortal Monarch Realm cultivation. Even Zhong Yin back then was not as bold as you.”
Lan Luo smiled faintly as if he treated Han Zhao as his peer and didn’t put on the airs of a senior.
“Senior, you must be joking. The reason why I’m so bold is because I have you backing me up. I’m just using you to intimidate others,” Han Zhao said seriously.
Seeing that Lan Luo didn’t take it seriously, Han Zhao immediately changed the topic and asked, “May I know who Zhong Yin is?”
“You really don’t know?” Lan Luo’s gaze was deep.
“Should I know?” Han Zhao was stunned.
“Zhong Yin’s Daoist name is ‘Marvelous Light’. He once killed the Dao Ancestor of Time, Sikong Ling, and became the new Dao Ancestor of Time, an existence that gave the entire Supreme Immortal Court a headache. Since you’re from the Heavenly Realm and have his inheritance, you should know more about him.” Lan Luo looked at Han Zhao with a faint smile.
Without waiting for Han Zhao to explain, he continued, “Although you tried your best to hide it, the way you operate the Reincarnation Spirit Domain is extremely special. Only those who have cultivated the Chaos Star Map can do it.”
“I’m indeed from the Heavenly Realm, but I was lucky enough to obtain Dao Lord Marvelous Light’s inheritance. I don’t know much about it,” Han Zhao said seriously. He was not surprised that Lan Luo had seen through his identity.
Although this encounter was different from the situation in the simulation, it did not affect the outcome.
“You don’t seem surprised by my arrival. Or… did you already know that I was coming?” Lan Luo changed the topic.
“I happened to know about the Eternal Life Alliance’s scheme to deal with you, so I guessed that you might appear here. Anyway, I’ve already formed a deadly feud with the Eternal Life Alliance. It doesn’t matter if I have too many grudges. Why don’t I take this opportunity to get rid of Shi Qianhan and help you get rid of a problem? I might be able to obtain your protection.” Han Zhao’s attitude was very humble.
With his current strength, he could still fight an ordinary Dao Ancestor, but he was still not strong enough to fight a Dao Ancestor who cultivated the Origin Law.
Be it the Water Origin Dao Ancestor Lan Luo in front of him or the Lightning Origin Dao Ancestor Shi Xuan who had just left, their strength was so strong that even with the tenfold increase in combat strength from the Heavenly Dao War God Destiny, Han Zhao would probably find it difficult to win.
There were three thousand Great Dao. As Dao Ancestors, there were also differences.
The Dao Ancestor Origin Law’s strength far exceeded that of Dao Ancestors of the same level who cultivated branch Laws.
Just like the Myriad Forms Heavenly Demon he had killed in the simulation. Although it was extremely powerful, it was much weaker than Lan Luo and Shi Xuan.
At the very least, he had to wait until his cultivation reached perfection and condensed several Chaotic Dao Marks. Only then would he have the ability to fight with the true experts of the Dao Ancestor Realm.
“Fellow Daoist Han, you think too highly of me. With my strength, it’s alright for me to fight Shi Xuan. However, your strength far exceeds your peers, and you cultivate the Reincarnation Law. I’m afraid you won’t be willing to become a subsidiary Law vassal of Dao Ancestor Reincarnation. At that time, Dao Ancestor Reincarnation will definitely treat you as his mortal enemy. The strength of the Supreme Law Dao Ancestor is beyond your imagination. I’m far from being his match.” Lan Luo shook his head and laughed.
“But Dao Ancestor Reincarnation is already injured and is in seclusion, isn’t that right?” Han Zhao said seriously. He knew that this was Lan Luo’s probing, but being so serious showed the sincerity of the other party’s cooperation.
“Looks like Fellow Daoist Han is really confident!” Lan Luo praised.
“I’m just doing my best and leaving the rest to fate. I won’t sit still and wait for death.” Han Zhao’s attitude was firm.
“What a good saying! Do your best and leave the rest to fate. It’s the same even for us Dao Ancestors. It’s hard to go against fate.” Lan Luo’s eyes seemed to be a little lonely, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
“In that case, Fellow Daoist Han is destined. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Han has already obtained Fellow Daoist Marvelous Light’s Time Seal?”
After Lan Luo finished probing, he changed the topic and went straight to the point.
Han Zhao was stunned by his straightforwardness, but he had no intention of hiding it. He immediately replied, “Yes.”
As he spoke, Han Zhao stretched out his right hand, and a golden seal with a pure white halo appeared in his palm.
Lan Luo carefully sized up the golden seal in Han Zhao’s palm and his gaze focused. “It’s indeed the Time Seal! I didn’t expect that after Fellow Daoist Marvelous Light left, someone would be able to control the Time Seal again.”
“Fellow Daoist Han, aren’t you afraid that I’ll snatch it?”
“No!” Han Zhao shook his head, “Senior won’t do that. Besides… if I want to escape, even the Space Dao Ancestor can’t stop me.”
Lan Luo nodded slightly. “I believe that, but there’s one more thing that Fellow Daoist Han needs to be careful about.”
“Senior, please enlighten me,” Han Zhao said seriously.
“Currently, the position of the Law of Time Dao Ancestor in the Ancestral Immortal Realm is vacant. However, there are a few half-step Dao Ancestors who cultivate the Law of Time. The strongest among them is the current palace master of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, Sikong Xue. She has inherited Sikong Ling’s legacy and has half a time treasure. Her strength is so strong that she surpasses many Dao Ancestors, causing the originally declining Jade Pool Heavenly Palace to regain its prestige and dominate several states in the North Heavenly Domain. Even if she encounters us, the Dao Ancestors of the Origin, Sikong Xue will have the strength to fight.
With her grasp of the Law of Time, if Fellow Daoist Han encounters her, it’s best not to use the ‘Time Seal’ easily. Otherwise, there’s the risk of it being snatched away,” Lan Luo reminded.
