Entering the Quasi-Saint Realm, Great Dao of Hiding!

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan fell into thought once more. Penglai Immortal Island, in the hands of East King Duke, was truly a waste of a divine gift. As the foremost of the Three Immortal Islands, it contained supreme treasures like the Yellow Middle Plum, one of the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots.

But what a pity—East King Duke was a fool. Having obtained Penglai Immortal Island, he died before he could make a name for himself, with only a wisp of True Spirit escaping into reincarnation.

As for who made the move to save him, Ye Xuan did not know. Whether it was the Dao Ancestor who acted, or Queen Mother of the West, the Head of Female Immortals who was nurtured alongside him in West Kunlun, it no longer mattered. By the time he returned from reincarnation, the boundless Innate Spiritual Qi had long since degenerated into Acquired Spiritual Qi. Only by joining the Human Teachings and becoming one of the Eight Immortats did he gain a shred of strength.

He was originally one of the Innate God-Demons, and among the strongest of them.

In his hands, he even held a Powerful Innate Spiritual Treasure.

The Dragon Head Staff!

Though it was an Innate Spiritual Treasure and not classified as a supreme treasure, it contained a thread of the Great Dao of Strength within it. Wielding it, one could break all laws with sheer force, possessing endless mysteries.

He also obtained a scroll of formation diagrams, allowing him to set up the Myriad Immortals Great Formation. But before he could use it, he died, and then joined the Human Teachings as a third-generation disciple—truly a disgrace to the Innate God-Demons.

Look at the other Innate God-Demons—each one shook the world with their fame. Especially Daoist Randeng, who rose from behind.

Among the three thousand Innate God-Demons, he had no reputation at all, a world apart from East King Duke. First, he joined the Exposition Sect, took advantage of the Great Tribulation to obtain the twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls, then defected to the Buddhist Sect, opened up the Twenty-Four Heavens in one go, became a Past Buddha, and stepped into the Realm of Quasi-Saint Great Perfection.

"Pathetic!"

Ye Xuan shook his head. Though he looked down on East King Duke, he could not involve himself in this matter.

Only by obtaining the Yellow Middle Plum in Penglai would the other party dare to arrogantly wage war against the Heavenly Court. If he intervened, it would not be a good thing for him.

As for the Three Immortal Islands of Penglai, Ye Xuan also had a trace of covetousness.

Legend had it that the Three Immortal Islands of Penglai were a fragment produced when Pangu split the heavens, as the boundless Chaos Qi suffered a heavy blow.

Once integrated into the Three Thousand Heavens, it would bring a massive boost to oneself, even allowing Ye Xuan to advance his Method of Becoming a Sage in Dreams to the next level, rising straight into the realm of Golden Immortal of the Origin.

But though he coveted the Three Immortal Islands of Penglai, Ye Xuan suppressed the thought. He had his position, and he couldn't take it away either. His full strength was only at the Realm of Quasi-Saint—he still needed to play it safe!

Looking at the second choice, Ye Xuan spoke directly.

"Choose the second—ignore it."

A Great Dao Demon God, one-tenth of its Origin Power—how formidable was that?

A hint of anticipation gleamed in Ye Xuan's eyes.

[Ding Dong!]

[The host has chosen to ignore it. One-tenth of the Origin Power of the Hidden Demon God is being distributed. Please check it yourself.]

Another Electronic Sound rang out, and a mass of Origin Qi entered Ye Xuan's hands.

"It's been sent down?"

Hearing this, Ye Xuan's face showed a moment of bewilderment. Staring at the nothingness in his hand, he frowned.

"The Hidden Demon God—who is that? Among the Three Thousand Demon Gods, this one isn't very famous, is it?"

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xuan used a thread of the Power of Karma to activate the Sky-Probing Instrument, wrapping it around the mass. Only then did he see that there truly was a ball of gas in his hand.

"I'm already a Quasi-Saint, yet I couldn't see it. I had to rely on the Power of Karma and a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Sky-Probing Instrument, just to inspect it!"

Ye Xuan sucked in a sharp breath. The Sky-Probing Instrument, though a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, had only one mystery, but once activated, even a Sage could not see through it.

As for the Power of Karma, it was even more profound and mysterious—one of the supreme Great Daos!

Looking at the mass of Origin Qi in his hand, a strange light flickered in Ye Xuan's eyes.

"The Hidden Demon God, though not famous among the Three Thousand Demon Gods, still has some skill."

Turning his palm over, Ye Xuan used the Power of Karma to merge it into his physical body.

The moment it fused, Ye Xuan's aura vanished entirely, as if he no longer existed in reality.

Another three thousand years passed, and Ye Xuan's entire aura surged wildly, advancing directly to the next level.

A look of great joy filled his eyes.

"The Great Dao of Hiding—so profound is it!"

"Once it reaches great completion, it can even contain a trace of the Power of Time?"

Ye Xuan finished inspecting this Great Dao from beginning to end. Throughout the entire text, there was only one word.

Hide!

Once it reached great completion, Ye Xuan could hide himself from the endless River of Time. Once hidden, every living being's impression of Ye Xuan himself would also be concealed.

In battle, once he turned invisible, he could take advantage of the opponent's confusion to strike them with full force from behind.

The Great Dao of Hiding—one level higher!

Once he hid himself, even the Power of Karma and the Power of Destiny would be ineffective against him.

When attacking an opponent, if only the opponent existed, and he himself did not, how could any effect be produced?

Moreover, if he was injured in battle, by hiding that segment of time and space, his wounds could also be healed.

This was only part of it—the same principle applied to others as well.

Once perfected, it could even conceal the force of another's attack.

When the need arose, one could retrieve it and wield it as a personal technique.

Back when the world was first split open, relying on his own Great Dao, the Hidden Demon God managed to withstand two axe strikes from Pangu.

The first axe was fortunate—by virtue of his Great Dao, a trace of subtlety allowed him to conceal it. But when the second axe came, it failed. "One force breaks all laws" was no empty boast; power beyond compare was not to be trifled with. Not only did he fail to block the second axe, but the first axe's concealment also unraveled. Under Pangu's full-strength blow, he perished outright.

"What a Hidden Demon God—a single Great Dao of Hiding, yet it held a trace of the subtlety of time."

"After attaining sainthood, to advance further, one must merge the other Three Thousand Great Daos into one's own Great Dao?"

Ye Xuan's gaze revealed a flicker of curiosity.

But after a moment's thought, Ye Xuan shook his head again, his expression turning solemn. "Forget it. I have not yet become a saint. The matter of Dao Lord is still too far off. What matters now is my own strength."

After entrusting his Good Corpse, Ye Xuan had obtained a Fragment of the Dao of Karma, but he had yet to master it.

In his hands, he also held a mass of the Hidden Demon God's origin—the most precious treasure of a Great Dao Demon God. Once fully integrated into himself, his combat power would rank among the foremost of the Innate God-Demons, and his Innate Foundation would ascend another level, standing above countless Innate God-Demons.
