"Owner."

A young man in blue robes, Dominator the aura of Eternal Emperor, respectfully approached the most majestic and tallest palace in the triangular area.

Quiet room.

There stood a bald old man in a long black robe—'Supreme Hongran '.

Two fleshy whiskers swayed on the head of the Supreme Hongran, and a pair of golden eyes were staring at the figure in front of him.

It was a gray sphere the size of a head, with countless patterns on its surface.

Supreme Hongran's fleshy beard swayed, and his eyes were full of excitement as he reached out and gently touched the gray sphere.

Wow~~~

Countless patterns on the gray sphere began to change instantly, and a terrifying power was brewing.

"Wrong."

Supreme Hongran shook his head, then extended his pale right hand and gently touched the gray sphere, restoring it to calm.

"Owner."

A second shout came from outside.

"Xian'er, what has bothered me?" Supreme Hongran finally realized what was happening and asked.

The young man in blue robes outside the palace seemed hesitant, but considering that Lord Dafeng had said that the two leaders of the Flame Dragon Domain Dao Alliance had repeatedly assured him, and that the Three Great Sovereigns had jointly guaranteed his safety, he finally spoke:

"Lord Dafeng has sent word that there is a Changsheng Dao Lord in the Flame Dragon Domain whose strength rivals that of Lord of Alien Universe, far surpassing that of an ordinary Dominator..."

The young man in green wasn't very confident, and he thought he would be scolded by his master as soon as he opened his mouth, so he spoke softer and softer.

Before he could finish speaking, the palace gates suddenly opened, and a tremendous force swept in, pulling him directly into the palace.

"Da Feng really said that? Dao Lord's strength is comparable to the Lord of Alien Universe?" Supreme Hongran grabbed the young man in blue with his two pale hands, his two fleshy whiskers almost touching the young man's face.

"Yes," the young man in blue replied. "I also thought it was unlikely, but Lord Dafeng said that the two leaders and the Three Great Sovereigns of the Flame Dragon Domain Dao Alliance all said the same thing and were even willing to make a life-bound oath, so it shouldn't be false."

"Could it be that a cultivator has mastered the Eternal Ultimate Dao?" The two fleshy whiskers on the head of Supreme Hongran suddenly stood straight up, and his golden eyes widened in disbelief.

"Master, Master..." The young man in blue felt as if his neck was about to be snapped.

"I told you long ago to cultivate your divine body properly. You're only at the level of a top-grade Eternal Divine Weapon, yet you're so weak." Supreme Hongran loosened his grip, leaving the boy in blue behind.

I... do you think I'm like you?!

The young man in blue muttered to himself, but dared not speak it aloud. Instead, he said, "Master, that Changsheng Dao Lord has sent a message through the Dao Alliance, saying he wishes to see you."

The message from the Dao Alliance is that Zhou Hao wishes to see the Supreme.

Since the ancient war with the Sith Clan, most of the Supreme cultivators have been elusive and their whereabouts are difficult to find.

Only Supreme Hongran was most fond of studying the Sith Clan civilization, especially Sith Clan weapons, which is why he settled in his cave for a long time. He was the most easily accessible Supreme to the higher-ups of the cultivators below.

That's why the young man in blue said that.

"Want to see me?" Supreme Hongran nodded. "You should see me."

The cultivators below are unaware that even the Supreme beings have their own division of labor.

Supreme Hongran had initially agreed to let him be in charge of contacting the Emperor Dominator, acting as a bridge so that any major events involving the Dominator Emperor, and other cultivators could be quickly relayed to him.

He then notified the others.

If a prodigy who has mastered the Ultimate Dao appears, even for extremely important matters, let alone coming to see him, it would be only right for Supreme Hongran to personally go and see Zhou Hao.

Looking at the gray sphere in front of him, Supreme Hongran was somewhat troubled.

Having studied tens of thousands of Chaos Eras, he had finally made some progress in his research on this Sith Clan war weapon component, and he was unwilling to give up now.

"The Ultimate Dao of merging with the Dao is so difficult; without guidance, it's almost impossible to succeed. That little fellow named Changsheng must have embarked on the Ultimate Dao on his own, and he wants to see me hoping to receive guidance."

At this moment, Supreme Hongran also realized what was happening.

As one of the earliest Supreme in the Cultivator Civilization, he has seen far too many monstrous geniuses over the years.

I have seen and encountered dozens of people who have paved their own way to the Ultimate Dao purely through their own efforts.

Some even received personal guidance from him and other Supreme, but without exception, they all ultimately failed to achieve Dao integration, their true spirits collapsing and they died.

"He can now rival the Lord of Alien Universe, so he must have reached the edge of the Dao Integration stage, and the Ultimate Dao he has comprehended is quite powerful in battle. Yes, that must be it. The lifespan of Dao Lord is 108,000 Chaos Eras, so a little longer won't make a difference."

Thinking of this, Supreme Hongran instructed the young man in blue, "Xian'er, tell Dafeng that I am willing to see that little fellow. Tell him the location of this cave and let him come here himself. When he arrives, treat him well. I will see him after I have repaired this treasure."

After giving his instructions, Supreme Hongran turned his gaze to the gray sphere in front of him, staring intently at the countless patterns on it.

"Let him come over himself?" The young man in blue was speechless.

Master, do you consider him Supreme?

You want a Dao Lord to come here on his own... even if his lifespan is about to end, he probably won't be able to come.

But seeing that Supreme Hongran was engrossed in his research, he dared not disturb him any further and quietly withdrew from the palace.

"Let Dafeng go there himself and bring that Changsheng Dao Lord here." The young man in blue shook his head and contacted his friend Lord Dafeng.

When the message was first sent, it was delayed because of the vast distance spanning more than a dozen realms. The Dao Alliance had to wait until Lord Dafeng was no longer in seclusion before they could report the message. In addition, Lord Dafeng and the young man in blue were so surprised that they had to ask more questions to verify its authenticity. It took more than a hundred years for the message to reach Supreme Hongran.

Now that Supreme Hongran's reply has been sent back, Lord Dafeng and the Dao Alliance are waiting for it, so it will naturally be soon.

Within half a day, Emperor Jin Yu of the Flame Dragon Domain Dao Alliance received a reply and immediately rushed to the Scarlet Snow Holy City.

"The Changsheng Dao Lord".

Emperor Jin Yu met Zhou Hao in the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace.

Back then, in the Scarlet Snow Devil Palace, all the great demons at the Emperor level were executed. As for the lesser demons at the Dao Lord and World Realm, apart from a few heinous ones who were casually killed by Zhou Hao, the rest had already scattered and fled.

The Scarlet Snow Devil Palace has now been renamed the Changsheng Dao Palace, becoming Zhou Hao's new Daoist temple within the Dao Alliance.

Only the name of the Scarlet Snow Holy City remained unchanged by Zhou Hao, as the entire Holy City was constantly shrouded in pale red snowflakes.

"Jin Yu." Zhou Hao's Second Primordial Spirit avatar received Emperor Jin Yu in the main hall of the Dao Palace.

Emperor Jin Yu had seen Zhou Hao's Second Primordial Spirit avatar before.

In his memory, compared to Zhou Hao's white-robed true self, his Second Primordial Spirit clone, dressed in black robes, had a slightly weaker aura and lacked the imposing presence of the cosmic origin in his every move.

But now, seeing him again after only a hundred years, Emperor Jin Yu was surprised to find that Zhou Hao in black robes had changed. His temperament had become more reserved, like an ordinary mortal, yet he possessed a certain extraordinary quality in his bones, and even had a special charm that was hard to describe. Upon seeing him, Emperor Jinyu couldn't help but feel a desire to get closer to him.

"It's been a century since we last met. Emperor Jin Yu, Dao Lord must have made great progress again." Emperor Jinyu exclaimed and bowed in admiration.

"You have made some progress." Zhou Hao, dressed in black, smiled and gestured to the seats below the main hall. "Sit down and let's talk."

"Lord Dafeng just replied that Supreme Hongran has agreed to meet Dao Lord and has sent over the location of the Supreme's cave." Emperor Jin Yu flipped his hand and took out a jade slip, respectfully handing it to Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao scanned the jade slip with his divine sense and saw that it contained an enormous star map.

The Flame Dragon Domain, which is vast and boundless even to Dao Lord, occupies only a small area in this star map.

"So far?" Zhou Hao frowned.

I originally thought that the Supreme that Lord Dafeng could contact should have his cave dwelling within the territory of the Sixteen Domain Alliance. But now, looking at the location of the Supreme Cave Abode marked on the star map, even if you go straight from the Flame Dragon Domain, you would have to cross hundreds of domains.

This doesn't even include the dark void between realms.

Some of the dark voids between realms are as large as dozens of Flame Dragon Domain, so the distance between hundreds of realms is terrifying.

"Since the ancient war with the Sith Clan, the whereabouts of several Supreme have been difficult to trace, and the Dominator have almost no way to contact Supreme! It is only because Lord Dafeng an extraordinary status and made great contributions in the ancient war that he has some influence with the Supreme Supreme and is able to interact with their disciples and confidants, and thus be able to contact Supreme Hongran," Emperor Jin Yu explained.

"It's such a long distance. If I were to travel there, it would probably take several Chaos Eras," Zhou Hao shook his head.

If the original body were present, it could tear through the void with the help of the origin of Small Universe, and its speed would be no less than that of the Supreme. It is estimated that it could arrive in a dozen years at most.

However, my main body is currently comprehending a vast number of magical techniques in the Blue Flower Cave Abode and cannot leave in a short time. Relying solely on my Second Primordial Spirit to travel would be much slower.

He wanted his Second Primordial Spirit to cultivate Small Universe just like his original self. Therefore, even though he was confident that his understanding of the Ultimate Taiji Dao was perfect enough and that he could easily merge with the Dao now, Zhou Hao did not allow his Second Primordial Spirit to merge with the Dao.

He always had a feeling that if he succeeded in achieving the Dao, the Ultimate Taiji Dao of his Second Primordial Spirit would become eternal within this Chaos Universe. In that case, even if he comprehended Blue Flower's ten layers of chaotic restrictions, he would no longer be able to cultivate Small Universe.

Therefore, although the Second Primordial Spirit is much stronger than the Dominator, it has not yet surpassed the Eternal Emperor in terms of life level, unlike the original body, which is above all Eternal Emperor and can be compared with the Supreme.

"Traversing hundreds of realms in just a few chaotic eras?" Emperor Jin Yu thought to himself.

Traveling from one realm to another is too far and difficult.

The most common way is to slowly travel through the void, which usually takes a long time.

Only Eternal Emperor can do this; ordinary Dao Lord can't even step out of the confines of a single domain in their entire lives.

Because the territory was too vast, and the Dao Lord were weak and short-lived.

Only the Eternal Emperor, because he has no lifespan limit, will enter the Dark Void after he gets tired of staying in one realm, and slowly travel to another realm.

Better than slowly traversing the void, there are time-space travel treasures like the ' Domain Flying Boat '.

With the help of the Domain Flying Boat, even an ordinary Eternal Emperor can traverse most of the interdimensional realm in a single space-time traversal, making travel much faster.

However, Domain Flying Boat are rare, and even among the Dominator, only a small number possess them.

Without sufficient strength, those weaker Dominator would most likely be killed and have their treasures stolen, unable to defend the Domain Flying Boat.

Even faster than the Domain Flying Boat is the Lord of Alien Universe who travels using the 'Origin of the Other Universe'.

However, doing so would consume an enormous amount of the 'Origin of the Other Universe', and the farther away from the Other Universe, the more the consumption would double. Therefore, the Lord of Alien Universe were unwilling to do so.

Therefore, the Lord of Alien Universe generally travel by using Domain Flying Boat boats.

Thinking of this, Emperor Jin Yu smiled and said, "Dao Lord, there's no need to rush. Lord Dafeng has sent word that he will come over and personally escort Dao Lord to the Supreme Cave Abode. However, Lord Dafeng has lent his Domain Flying Boat to his disciple, so it will probably take several thousand years before the journey can take place."

"Thousands of years? I understand." Zhou Hao had also seen records of the Domain Flying Boat in the Daoist scriptures and knew its speed.

Even if it takes thousands of years, it's still much faster than traveling on your own.

"Please tell Lord Dafeng that there's no need to rush. I'll be waiting for you in Scarlet Snow Holy City," Zhou Hao added. "Also, I know that using the Domain Flying Boat to travel through time and space consumes a lot of energy. Lord Dafeng Lord Dafeng come all this way specifically for this purpose. Tell him that I will prepare a sufficient price to ensure that Lord Dafeng doesn't suffer any losses."

Some Dominator own Domain Flying Boat usually take on inter-realm transportation businesses to earn treasures.

Lord Dafeng may not have gone to such lengths, but he did come all this way specifically for this purpose.

Having reached his level, Zhou Hao preferred to use some treasures as 'travel expenses' rather than incur favors from others, rather than forming karmic ties with them.

"Understood." Emperor Jin Yu nodded, turned and left the Changsheng Dao Palace to return to the Dao Alliance to deliver the message.

He could certainly use his Dharma Body left in the Dao Alliance to transmit messages, but that wouldn't make his hard work stand out.

Even the smallest favor is still a favor. If it can earn the Changsheng Dao Lord a little appreciation for my efforts, then it's all worth it.

Zhou Hao didn't think much of Emperor Jin Yu's little schemes; his mind was almost entirely focused on the Blue Flower Cave Abode.

However, since we still have to wait for thousands of years in Scarlet Snow Holy City Scarlet Snow Holy City, we might as well let Master Houyi Ji Ning come here to cultivate.

This is one of the eight Holy City of the Dao Alliance, with thousands of Dao Lord residing here and countless World Realm. The city also houses the Dao Alliance's Treasure Pavilion and Dao Treasury Hall, making it far superior to ordinary Eternal Realms in terms of cultivation resources and atmosphere.

The Zhouguang Eternal World, the Zhou Guang City.

Changsheng Dao Academy, which was originally the City Lord's Mansion but was converted into a secluded courtyard Zhou Hao's Dharma Body, which had been in seclusion, emerged from the quiet courtyard.

"Master of the Dao."

Upon seeing Zhou Hao, the two Golden-Robed Disciples of the World Realm who encountered him hurriedly knelt down and bowed to him by the roadside.

A hundred years ago, Zhou Hao's incredible feat of annihilating the City Scarlet Snow City Lord Scarlet Snow Holy City and twenty-three Eternal Emperor in the Battle of Scarlet Snow Holy City had already swept across the entire Flame Dragon Domain like a hurricane.

In the Zhouguang Eternal World and the Damo Eternal World, the Changsheng Dao Academy has attracted no fewer than ten thousand World Realm disciples in the past century. This is the result of careful selection by their masters, the Sanqing and the Daoist Damo.

Without screening or restrictions, given his current reputation, it would be easy for him to attract millions of the World Realm disciples.

Besides the World Realm disciples, there were also dozens of Dao Lord and three Eternal Emperor who came to join him. Zhou Hao arranged for them to go to Scarlet Snow Holy City to help the Second Primordial Spirit with miscellaneous tasks.

Wow~~~

Zhou Hao's divine sense instantly enveloped the entire Zhou Guang City.

My master, the Sanqing, is in the Dao Treasury Hall.

Rulai and Fuxi-shi are playing chess.

Ji Ning...

"Whoosh." Zhou Hao moved, traversing the void to appear atop a High Mountain.
