Chapter 1097: The Cursed Immortal Dao (1/2)

“What is this?” Everyone in the Tomb of Heaven and Earth paused, staring blankly at the white flowers floating down around them. No one knew the reason for the phenomenon.

“These flowers… seem to be the Dao Flower of the worlds,” murmured a cultivator from a sacred land when he closed his hand around one. The crystalline flower in his hand slowly faded away.

“You’re wrong, the Dao Flower doesn’t belong to the worlds, it belongs to the chaos.” A sacred palace cultivator shook his head.

“Huh? Then why does the Dao Flower appear in the worlds?” the sacred land cultivator asked with bafflement. As eternal overlords, they could naturally see that the Dao Flower had taken root in the worlds.

The sacred palace cultivator shook his head without responding.

……

“He did it.” Six magnificent figures standing in the void outside the tomb smiled at the immortal dao surging into the structure.

“The seeds of immortal dao have finally taken root in the chaos!” The Nirvana monarch almost trembled from the force of his emotions. “This means we can finally practice the immortal dao and use it to ascend beyond the chaos. We won’t have to be afraid of the energy of the worlds anymore!”

“Indeed, we’ve finally succeeded.” The other palace monarchs smiled happily as well.

They carefully protected the light of the dao from the world of immortals, deathly afraid that something would disrupt it. Sacred power bloomed as the six highest orders shielded the radiance of immortal dao and concealed it.

“So what is it that supports the nine sacred lands from the shadows?” Leize asked. “The creation seed is a harbinger of mayhem and turmoil in the chaos. Thank goodness there’s only the nine sacred lands. If there were ten or eleven of them, then they’d be the masters of the realm.”

The expressions of the other five monarchs turned unpleasant when the sacred lands were mentioned.

When Leize had destroyed the water elemental land, he’d actually wanted to make use of the opportunity to get rid of them all. However, a terrifying existence would’ve destroyed him if he’d continued his rampage then.

Therefore, while the sacred palaces had always displayed a domineering attitude toward the sacred lands and kept them underfoot, they didn’t actually dare consider razing the sacred lands from existence.

Continuously taking their sovereigns and assimilating these experts into the sacred palaces was the most they could do. When it came to the worlds, the six palaces could only stand by and watch as the sacred lands launched their offensives and set their schemes in motion.

All of this had to do with the creation seed that the entire chaos viewed as the ultimate treasure, and its eleventh was born today!

If it wasn’t for another great master supporting the sacred palaces, the one behind the creation seed likely would’ve broken the six palaces long ago.

……

Lu Yun’s cultivation level was now at High Immortal of the Great Firmament. The colossal power that his dao fruit had collected flooded into his body, propelling his cultivation upwards.

Golden Immortal of Grand Unity, Arcane Immortal of the Nine Heavens, and Supreme Immortal of Original Order!

And further breakthroughs, again!

The ingress, primordial, and principal realm!

Lu Yun cultivation finally stabilized at peak principal realm—corresponding to fourth level mortal realm in the chaos.

Though his cultivation level had been finalized after the refinement of his dao fruit, his eyes remained close. He was becoming one with his past self—all of its experiences, feelings, everything it’d ever weathered flowed into Lu Yun’s heart.

All of this was his to begin with, so it very naturally became part of him again.

“I had thought that my past self had brought the immortal dao into the mythological realm, but it turns out that the immortal dao comes from Hongmeng, or the even more sophisticated fourth realm.” Lu Yun suddenly opened his eyes.

He’d finished becoming one with his past self and fully grasped everything he’d ever encountered.

“You had quite a difficult time of things too.” Lu Yun smiled ruefully at the little fox.

“Eh? What happened?” The little fox sprang away from him like a startled rabbit.

“You don’t know what you did?” He glared at her. When she’d opened the passageway to the past and future, she’d also sent a bit of her soul force through to keep the Lu Yuns company.

“Nope!” She shook her head resolutely. “I sent my soul force over only to teach you how to refine your own body as a dao fruit, so how did I become Mistress Tushan Miao to her?!”

She actually wanted to cry about the situation. Lu Yun looked at her blankly, taken aback.

“Master got drunk once and kept calling out for Mistress Qing Yu, then took you to his bed…” Qing Han clarified awkwardly.

Lu Yun’s expression immediately darkened and he glared ominously at Qing Han. She tucked her head in and stuck her tongue out at her master.
