Greatly Shelter All Under Heaven! Erase Eternal Sorrows! After the Matter, Brush Off Clothes and Leave
A New Life Dao Venerable in a fully awake state is indeed considered a true Ancient Realm Venerable in the entire Ancient Realm.
Not to mention that the Ancient Realm is still on the decline, with Spiritual Qi gradually waning and becoming scarce. Countless Ancient Realm cultivators are either starving for food or living in fear of disasters. At this time, they need a leader who can step forward and take charge of the overall situation.
Today, Chen Dengming has become this leader.
After Chen Dengming extended invitations to many Immortal Sect Dao Gate to relocate to the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm.
Some top sects are still hesitating and considering, but most of the medium and large sects and small sects immediately saw hope of getting out of their predicament and were overjoyed.
For most small and medium-sized sects, the most important thing to consider is how to survive and obtain cultivation resources when the world and cultivation environment change drastically.
At this time, Chen Dengming, this Dao Venerable, was willing to open his Dao Domain to accept them. His Dao Domain was rich in Spiritual Qi energy and had no shortage of Cultivation Resources. This was simply a gift from heaven, a good thing that you might not be able to find even with a lantern. Naturally, he immediately agreed.
Several days later.
Under Chen Dengming's personal use of his Daoist magic to guide people across Proximity to Heaven's End, one Immortal Sect Dao Gate Human World another in the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm.
Even more than ten ghost kings and Yin Spring Ghost Lord within the Ghost Realm actively responded and were successively led by Chen Dengming to the Eighteen Layers of Death Realm, willingly serving as the first wave of ghost messengers 'on call' in the Death Realm, specializing in guarding the ghosts, spirits, and evil spirits that have committed different sins at different levels.
In a short time, the once sparsely populated Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm gradually became bustling and noisy, with many regions seeing the arrival of Immortal Sect Dao Gate, and Cultivation Family.
The Longevity Sect dispatched more than a dozen teams of cultivators specifically responsible for dividing the areas, arranging various Immortal Sect Dao Gate, and Cultivation Family in designated areas to prevent them from setting up camps haphazardly and becoming mountain kings.
After settling in, these numerous Immortal Sect Dao Gate discovered that the Spiritual Qi content within the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm was indeed extremely rich, comparable to that before the great calamity struck the Human World, and even significantly higher than that of the wild Spiritual Qi in the Human World in most regions.
Many cultivators had already heard that the most precious thing in the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm was not the Five Phases Spiritual Qi, but the Immortal Spiritual Energy.
However, this resource of Immortal Spiritual Energy will not be available to many Daoist sects for the time being.
Many Immortal Sect Dao Gate in the mortal Human World who have not yet entered the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm see that many of their fellow practitioners have entered the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, and no one says they want to leave.
The sects that had hesitated for a moment became anxious and began to respond to the call, fearing that if they were late, they would miss out on good territory and resources.
"Junior Brother, by gathering so many people into our Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, won't the resources of the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm be squeezed out and become even scarcer in the future?"
Inside Chen Dengming's cave abode in the Longevity Sect, He Yingyu and two other women lay beside Chen Dengming on a fairy bed that resembled swirling clouds and mist, gazing into the distance. Su Yan Yan asked with a doubtful expression.
Chen Dengming smiled and gently brushed Su Yan Yan's hair aside, then shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the Five Phases Spiritual Qi in the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm is provided by the universe at all times. Even if all the cultivators from the Ancient Realm came in, it wouldn't be much consumed in thousands of years."
Furthermore, according to my rules governing the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, the Spiritual Qi of these cultivators dissipates into the heavens and earth after their deaths, and this Death Qi will transform into Life Energy, becoming nourishment for this realm and providing vitality to the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm. In this way, a cycle of resource reuse can be achieved, just like the Ancient Realm of the past."
In the Ancient Realm, when Dao Integration Dao Master has attained the Dao dies, his body and power dissipate into the world after his death and Dao is destroyed. They are then absorbed by the world and transformed into new Life Force and energy.
Just as fallen flowers turn into spring mud to nourish the flowers, there is also the saying, "When a whale falls, all things are born."
This phenomenon seems to be no different from the situation of the High Antiquity giants who created the world, whose bones and fur turned into mountains and forests, and Flesh and Blood turned into rivers, lakes and seas and many living beings after they died.
In short, all living beings are born from heaven and earth, and after death, they return everything they possess to heaven and earth.
The number of cultivators in the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm currently does not consume much of the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm's Spiritual Qi.
Ultimately, in Chen Dengming's eyes, these cultivators weren't particularly powerful; even if they ate freely, how much could they possibly consume?
The amount of Spiritual Qi consumed by a thousand Nascent Soul Cultivator in a day is probably the same as the amount of Spiritual Qi consumed by Chen Dengming in just a few breaths.
Hearing Chen Dengming's explanation, Su Yan Yan and the other women could understand.
Since their husbands could protect the world and they themselves weren't at a disadvantage, these women naturally had nothing to say. After all, he was their own man, and of course, only they cared about him.
Chen Dengming looked at the beautiful women in his arms and couldn't help but feel a little tempted. He smiled and said...
"How about we cultivate together for a while longer? After I finish this time with you all, I'm going on a long trip."
He Yingyu exclaimed in surprise, "Again?"
Little Array Spirit said shyly and embarrassedly, "Husband, your physique is too strong, and it's so hot, I can't stand it."
Chen Dengming laughed heartily. His Dao Body had now integrated the rules of the Five-Colored Divine Fire, making it stronger than any Dao Artifact. Of course, it was both fierce and fiery; if it were to unleash its power, it could burn a person to ashes.
However, he was Old Deng doted on his wives, a tough guy with a tender heart, and he would never hurt his wives. He would only cherish them. So he patted He Yingyu on the shoulder.
"Sister, you're the only one who hasn't broken through to the Spirit Transformation yet. You were cultivating so diligently just now, reaping the most benefits, but you still haven't broken through. You need to hurry up!"
Upon hearing this, He Yingyu immediately adopted a pitiful and charming demeanor, like a puppy wagging its tail and begging for mercy, saying, "I understand, thank you for your love, my Husband."
Su Yan Yan rolled her eyes. She couldn't stand He Yingyu's flirtatious and charming ways. Even someone as aloof as herself couldn't pull it off.
Soon, a dozen days later.
The Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm has guided more than 130 large and small Immortal Sect Dao Gate to join, including seven top sects such as the Shu Sword Pavilion, the Five Elements Escape Sect, the Bright Light Sect, the Divine Turtle Island, and the Red Lotus Sword Sect.
The number of ghost kings and Yin Spring Ghost Lord brought in from the ghost realm reached more than a dozen, and the number of ghost generals reached hundreds.
In addition to these cultivators, Chen Dengming also guided more than five million mortals into the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, which accounts for almost a quarter of the total number of mortals still stuck in the Human World.
After these cultivators and mortals flow into the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, they will become the humanistic force for Chen Dengming to build his Daoist land.
Whether it's the power of Incense and Faith needed in the Heavenly Court or the Death Qi needed in the Realm of the Dead, both are inseparable from humans.
The development of the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, is also inseparable from humanity.
By bringing these people to the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, they can escape the disadvantages of the dwindling resources in the Human World and the ghost realm, and reduce their suffering from calamities. It can be said that Chen Dengming has successfully achieved his grand ambition of protecting the world.
"You little brat Chen, Dao Venerable! You've practically emptied the Human World, and you haven't even left me a single soul!"
Heavenly Human Hall, Dongfang Huayuan, who had come to visit, looked down at the entire Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm and jokingly said, feigning annoyance.
Upon hearing this, Qu Shenzong laughed and said, "Dongfang, you're wrong about that. As the saying goes, people strive to rise higher, and water flows downhill."
Given the choice between the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, where the Venerable Longevity Dao Venerable resides, Human World or the Southern Search, I think most intelligent people would know to choose the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm.
My own Tiandao Sect is located in the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, not in my Heavenly God Realm where Spiritual Qi is scarce."
Chen Dengming laughed and said, "Dongfang, it's not like I didn't leave you some people. There are still quite a few mortals and Immortal Sect Dao Gate left behind in the Human World."
"I've taken some people with me, which will greatly enrich the Human World's resources. Those who don't want to leave the Human World should be temporarily relieved of their resource shortages. However, in the future, it will still require your great efforts as the Lord of Humanity."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Huayuan's face lit up, and he said, "Don't worry, those who are unwilling to leave will definitely receive better resources and development in the future. After all, the monument of blessings you left in this Human World is not just for show. In short, I still want to thank you."
"Hey!" Chen Dengming quickly waved his hand, his face showing displeasure as he teased, "When did you, Dongfang, become so sincere in thanking people? I'm really not used to you being like this."
Dongfang Huayuan's face darkened, feeling somewhat embarrassed, but also quite relieved.
To be honest, it would be a lie to say that Chen Dengming felt no pressure after breaking through to the Dao Venerable Realm. He even felt unnatural when trying to speak casually.
But after talking with them, I realized that the three of them still had the same comfortable and pleasant feeling when they interacted.
After some conversation, Chen Dengming mentioned the agreement with the Vast Sky Dao Venerable, and both Dongfang Huayuan and Qu Shenzong became solemn and serious.
"The most mysterious Dao Venerable in this New Realm has no ill intentions, yet he insists on you breaking through to the Dao Venerable before inviting you to go. I'm afraid he needs your help in some way."
Qu Shenzong frowned and pondered.
Dongfang Huayuan frowned and said, "This Vast Sky Dao Venerable is the most senior Dao Venerable in the New Realm, and his strength is unfathomable. What could he possibly want to do that Chen boy would have to do only after breaking through to Dao Venerable?"
Chen Dengming pondered for a moment and said, "Judging from the current state of the world, it is probably still related to the Eternal Great Tribulation."
The Eternal Great Tribulation of High Antiquity times mainly began in the Ancient Realm. At that time, there were not many Cultivation Star in the universe outside the Ancient Realm, so it was the least affected. That calamity ended when the Five Great True Immortals all fell in rank or perished.
The new Eternal Great Tribulation is now primarily focused on the tribulation of the entire universe, as the Ancient Realm has long since declined while the cosmos has flourished.
I believe that Vast Sky Dao Venerable needs me to join forces with him to overcome this tribulation!
After speaking, Chen Dengming explained in detail to the two of them the strange changes in the Tribulation Qi Dharma Idol.
Both of them were present when the Dharma Image was released to the other side of the curtain.
Upon hearing this, they all paled, never expecting that their past worries had actually come true, and had even become more terrifying.
Qu Shenzong sighed, his hands behind his back, "Nephew Disciple Chen, things have come to this point. You may indeed have become the key to averting disaster."
Unfortunately, neither Dongfang nor I were able to keep up with your pace, and now I'm afraid we can't help you much either."
These words made even the proud Dongfang Huayuan's face turn ugly, yet he had no choice but to admit the outcome.
Even now, thanks to that Five-Colored Golden Core, their strength has already reached the mid-stage of the Dao Integration realm.
However, compared to the Dao Venerable, he is still far inferior.
The memory of Phoenix Cry Dao Venerable severely injured them with a single Divine Ability is still vivid in their minds. The Dao Integration Dao Master is indeed no match for Dao Venerable.
Chen Dengming encouraged the two, saying with a smile, "The fact that you two stay in the Ancient Realm and help me take good care of it is already the greatest help you can give me."
In the Ancient Realm today, without the two of you, no one else can shoulder the responsibility. With you two here, I can leave with peace of mind!
Upon hearing this, Qu Shenzong laughed heartily and generously, "You can rest assured about that. It's nothing for us to go out, but in this small corner of the Ancient Realm, we can still protect our home well with our Dao Domain!"
Seeing that Dongfang Huayuan also nodded, Chen Dengming was also pleased.
"Then let's work together to protect the Ancient Realm and survive another Eternal Great Tribulation!"
"Very well! Let us weather the eternal tribulations together, and dispel the eternal sorrows together!"
The three men exchanged glances and burst into laughter, displaying a passionate and unrestrained spirit, as if they had shared life and death, that a promise was worth a thousand pieces of gold, and that they were brave and bold.
Several days later.
High in the clouds above the boundary between the Heavenly Human Life and Death Realm, the air was restless, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring.
Chen Dengming floated in the air, his mind and will locked onto the coordinates of the universe that Vast Sky Dao Venerable had once passed on to him.
Suddenly, his Divine Sense consciousness condensed into cold white beams of light in his eyes, transforming into two rainbows that shot fiercely into the air in front of him.
Rumble!!--
Under the impact of his incomparably powerful Dao force.
The void instantly twisted and became chaotic, gradually emerging to form a huge, constantly fluctuating curtain.
The screen seemed to be filled with countless ripples of water, changing wildly, representing the rapidly shifting spatial environments.
Chen Dengming calmly observed the countless rapidly changing spatial environments. With his current brainpower and mental calculation abilities, he was completely at ease dealing with the information flow that surpassed that of a capital city in an instant.
Especially within his Dao Domain, he is almost omniscient and omnipotent, able to see through everything, yet his expression remains completely unchanged.
At this moment, every minute detail of the fluctuations in the curtain in front of him was fed into his mind. Even the slightest abnormal turbulence or fluctuation in spacetime could not escape his mental calculation records.
In the next instant, he had already captured the coordinates of the deepest part of the universe that the Vast Sky Dao Venerable had once passed on to him.
The space where those coordinates are located is almost fleeting.
However, the blazing white beam of light that burst forth from Chen Dengming's eyes instantly transformed into a five-colored radiance. An astonishing heat, accompanied by the aura of rules, erupted, transforming into a dazzling and blinding heat stream that fiercely shot towards that fleeting moment in the grand scheme of things.
In just a moment!
That large node then silently melted open.
Chen Dengming quickly formed a hand seal and unleashed the Daoist supernatural Divine Ability "Close at Hand, Proximity to Heaven's End".
In the next instant, his figure vanished directly into the spacetime tunnel constructed from the Proximity to Heaven's End distance within the melting curtain.
In the vast expanse of space, a curtain of strange and ever-changing colors suddenly appeared in the starry sky, and then it was abruptly torn open, revealing a bizarre passage.
Inside the passage, Chen Dengming, dressed in a white robe formed from Dao power, with his white hair flying in the wind, took a step forward, and the rapidly fluctuating curtain behind him instantly closed and disappeared into the ripples of the starry space.
His gaze suddenly turned to the distance, his pupils narrowed slightly, and he saw a towering figure sitting cross-legged in the vast starry sky, whose size was even larger than the Cultivation Star, exuding an astonishing pressure and domineering aura that seemed to make the starry sky tremble.
"You've come!"
A deep, resonant voice, like a booming bell, came from that massive figure.
