All at once, the Three Pure Ones looked at each other.
"Eldest Brother, this thing issued a task, asking me to lecture my disciple on the Dao. Only when my disciple comprehends it will the task be considered complete. And moreover... moreover, it's Path of Artifacts Palm Dao!" Yuanshi transmitted, his voice filled with shock. After all, since transforming, he had comprehended the Path of Artifacts and knew all too well how difficult comprehending the Great Dao was!
Even with the help of Chen Tian's Dao Charm, he had only reached the great accomplishment stage. Without several Yuanhui, he probably wouldn't be able to reach Palm Dao!
And now, someone could reach Palm Dao in a single go? Just what level of existence was the Dao Venerable Hongmeng? And wasn't his disciple far too incredible? He had actually made the system created by the Dao Venerable Hongmeng so close to him? Was being the Son of the Great Dao really that amazing?
"Eldest Brother, second brother, I'll give it a try and find out!" Tongtian transmitted at that moment.
"This... all right." Laozi hesitated for a moment. After all, they had no idea what this expert wanted to do. Thus, Laozi and Yuanshi had concentrated their divine senses on Tongtian, deeply afraid that if the expert found him displeasing, he would kill Tongtian on the spot.
However, they both knew that someone capable of effortlessly implanting this thing into their sea of consciousness could kill them far too easily.
"Disciple, are you bored? How about I explain the Path of Arrays to you?" Tongtian asked with a grin as he looked at Chen Tian.
Chen Tian rolled his eyes. "Third Master, are you stupid? I've already reached Palm Dao in the Path of Arrays." With that, a profound light appeared in Chen Tian's hand. Within it was actually a sphere resembling a Small World!
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled within the sphere, while earth, water, wind, and fire raged. On the surface of the sphere were dark-golden Dao patterns! These were... Array Dao patterns!
"Gasp..."
Tongtian hurriedly took a step back and sucked in a cold breath. Damn...! Even I, a quasi-saint, wouldn't dare play around like this. How dare you?
Though it was only a small array, it was already nearly one with the Dao! Even if a quasi-saint entered it, there would be no danger of death, but they would need Chen Tian's permission to get out!
But... Chen Tian was only at the peak of the Taiyi Profound Immortal realm! How could a Taiyi Profound Immortal deal with a quasi-saint??
Heavenly Dao, I want to report this! Someone's cheating!!!
Ding—task completed. Reward: Array Dao Palm Dao!
At the same time, a voice appeared in Tongtian's mind. Then, countless insights into the Path of Arrays entered Tongtian's sea of consciousness!
Tongtian was greatly startled. He then sat down cross-legged and began comprehending and absorbing these insights into the Path of Arrays...
Laozi and Yuanshi were completely dumbfounded! Just like that... he had reached Palm Dao in the Path of Arrays?? Was this a joke?!
"Third..."
"Disciple, don't disturb my third brother. He's currently comprehending the Dao and must not be disturbed!"
Chen Tian had just wanted to speak when Laozi hurriedly transmitted to him.
Chen Tian nodded. The three of them then continued flying while waiting for Tongtian to finish comprehending the Dao.
Soon, forty years passed. Tongtian opened his eyes, and Dao patterns seemed to flicker within them. A Chaos Storm lay ahead, when suddenly a great array appeared before them, sweeping across the entire Chaos Storm!
In an instant, the Chaos Storm dissipated...
Laozi and Yuanshi were greatly shocked. Even they had not dared to face the Chaos Storm head-on, and could only avoid its sharp edge and take a detour. Yet at this moment, it had actually been swept up and dispersed by an array!
"Third Master, you're finally awake." Chen Tian smiled. "By the way, Third Master, I sensed that you've reached Palm Dao in the Path of Arrays. You had only reached the minor accomplishment stage before, so how did you advance so quickly?"
"Third brother, don't tell the disciple, or you'll be killed." Just as Tongtian was about to speak, Yuanshi hurriedly transmitted to him.
Tongtian nodded and smiled. "This comprehension of the Dao was all thanks to you, disciple. If you hadn't let me see the rules of Palm Dao, I wouldn't have been able to comprehend the Dao."
"Am I really that powerful?" Chen Tian said skeptically.
Tongtian coughed twice. It was his first time lying, and he felt a little embarrassed~
But he still nodded.
"All right." Chen Tian pretended to think for a moment, then sat down again and waited to reach Purple Firmament Palace.
"Third brother, have you reached the stage of slashing the second corpse through this comprehension?" Laozi continued flying while transmitting.
Above the Daluo realm, one cultivated the Three Thousand Great Daos. At present, the momentum of Tongtian's attainment of Palm Dao in the Path of Arrays had already reached the level of slashing the second corpse! In other words, he had reached the middle stage of the quasi-saint realm!
"Eldest Brother, I haven't slashed a corpse yet, but if I want to, I can slash one!" Tongtian transmitted. He had yet to slash a corpse, but his aura had already reached the middle stage of the quasi-saint realm! Clearly, he could do so whenever he wished.
"I see. It seems the Dao Venerable Hongmeng didn't deceive us. Then again, the Dao Venerable Hongmeng is an existence who has transcended the Great Dao. He wouldn't deceive us." Yuanshi nodded inwardly and sighed.
He had never expected that the Three Pure Ones would encounter such an opportunity! Perhaps attaining Sainthood through Three Corpses was no longer far away.
The path of attaining sainthood through slashing the Three Corpses was viable, but according to the original course of events, aside from Dao Ancestor Hongjun, everyone else had an unstable path to sainthood!
Most of them attained sainthood after slashing one or two corpses through boundless merit. At most, there was Laozi, who attained sainthood through the merit of creating the world only after slashing all three corpses. That was why he was the strongest saint beneath Hongjun.
But this also had its drawbacks. Without merging the Three Corpses into one, it was impossible to advance to a higher realm! Chen Tian naturally knew this, which was why he had given them the subsidiary systems. Although the three old fools often beat him up, they were still very good to him.
"Excellent. Once we return to Kunlun, we'll do the tasks. This task has no time limit." Laozi smiled and nodded as he transmitted.
"Wonderful!" Tongtian and Yuanshi both nodded. They were certainly willing to teach their disciple, and they would even receive good things for doing so!
Chen Tian looked at the three old fools and smiled. "Heh heh heh heh, this is all thanks to me. Forget it, I'll break through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm first. That way, I'll have ten more chances to choose from the system."
With that, Chen Tian sat down cross-legged and began to break through. Breaking through was a simple matter for Chen Tian. After all, he had already been able to break through three thousand years ago, but he had suppressed himself for three thousand years to condense his magic power.
Now, he was fully capable of breaking through. However, after returning to the Prehistoric World, he still had to break through his Immortal Dao Body to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm.
The moment Chen Tian began his breakthrough, the Chaos Qi around him formed a vortex. In the end, strands of it entered Chen Tian's body!
Seeing this, the Three Pure Ones immediately protected Chen Tian as he cultivated. Yuanshi even circulated his magic power to compress the Chaos Qi. The Chaos Qi was absorbed by the Chaos Gods and Demons; only after being compressed and gradually transformed into Innate Spiritual Qi could it be absorbed!
Precisely because Yuanshi compressed the Chaos Qi, Chen Tian's physique was also tempered by it. What he absorbed into his body was pure Innate Spiritual Qi!
A hundred years later.
"Buzz, buzz...!"
In an instant, a Solar Star and a Lunar Star appeared in Chen Tian's Dantian! This signified that Chen Tian had already reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm!!
When Chen Tian opened his eyes, they had already arrived at Purple Firmament Palace...
