Ownership of the Treasures

Zhou Zheng landed steadily on the Seven-Colored Chain. As he circulated the Life Technique to continuously change the aura of his soul True Spirit, he soon arrived at the other end of the chains.

Seeing this scene, the peak Dao Lord on the Rock Continent instantly felt a sense of powerlessness.

It's completely over!

They had only managed to break through "Dao Lord Cheng Tian's " move, which allowed him to freely transform his true form and Avatar, on this narrow continent. Now that he had come to a vast area, even disregarding his strength, they probably wouldn't be able to deal with him again based solely on that troublesome move.

With such a technique and his terrifying strength, there's no doubt they have no chance left! The three Dongming Jade Talisman falling into the hands of Dao Lord Cheng Tian is now a fact!

"A full three Dongming Jade Talisman!! Moreover, Dao Lord Cheng Tian's ambition is enormous. He hasn't used them yet, presumably because he's preparing to use them only after making ample preparations before merging with the Dao Merge."

Many peak Dao Lord were extremely envious.

According to the records of the Dao Alliance, the Dongming Jade Talisman can enable Second Level Heaven-Defying Dao Lord to completely simulate the Dao Merge once, while peak Dao Lord can simulate a considerable part of the Dao Merge process.

Three Dongming Jade Talisman can simulate Dao Merge three times, instantly increasing the success rate of Dao Merge many times over.

On the other side—

As Zhou Zheng stepped down from the Seven-Colored Chain, Ji Ning, dressed in white, flew over instantly.

"Master, congratulations!" Ji Ning's face was filled with surprise.

He had been worried about the recent battle, but unfortunately he couldn't enter the middle passage and could only watch from the outside, unable to do anything.

But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Zhou Zheng actually killed the Wine Saint and calmly walked out from the middle passage.

Most importantly, Zhou Zheng also obtained three Dongming Jade Talisman!

At this moment, although Ji Ning had already sensed that the Dongming Jade Talisman would not be of much use in achieving the Ultimate Dao Merge, he was clearly unaware of the true difficulty of the Ultimate Dao.

In Ji Ning's mind, even if the effect of the Dongming Jade Talisman was small, it would definitely have some effect. Three Dongming Jade Talisman would certainly be enough to increase the success rate.

That's why Ji Ning finally spoke up and said "Congratulations".

"It was all a coincidence!" Zhou Zheng shook his head slightly, then said:

"Now, only the right passage in the entire Yibo Realm is still unresolved. Let's Past and wait, otherwise, when Jiu Chen comes out, he might be blocked by the other peak Dao Lord!"

"Good!"

Ji Ning nodded immediately, but his expression was somewhat strange.

It seems that all the benefits of the entire Yibo Realm have fallen into the hands of these few people.

Of the five Dongming Jade Talisman, Jiu Chen used one, he had one on him, and his master received three.

He now possessed all nine Fruit Token, including the three tokens from the left passage. During the initial struggle, Dao Lord Hei Xiao and King Chen Ming had obtained a Fourth Command Token, but even their combined strength was no match for him. Ultimately, they were forced to hand over this token as well.

Needless to say, all three tokens in the middle passage ended up in his master's hands.

Although the right-side passage is not yet over, the peak Dao Lord have all chosen the middle passage. There are no competitors on the right-side passage, so the token will inevitably be obtained by Jiu Chen.

Jiu Chen had previously stated that he would use a token as a token of gratitude.

Indeed, all the treasures fell into their hands. The other nearly thirty peak Dao Lord and a large number of Second Level Heaven-Defying Dao Lord had gone through a lot of trouble to come here, but ended up with nothing.

Of course, it cannot be said that nothing was gained.

The two great methods of "Life Technique" and "Dao Heart" that the peak Dao Lord learned in the Chibo Palace are extremely precious. Being able to learn these two methods is not a wasted trip.

However, no matter what, the gains of others were far too meager compared to those of the master and his apprentice.

"My master and I have indeed improved at an astonishing speed!" Ji Ning thought to himself with some emotion.

He wasn't doing charity work; having obtained the treasure, he naturally wouldn't hand it over easily. What impressed him was that the two of them had unknowingly reached this level of strength, enough to go toe-to-toe with all the other peak Dao Lord.

It should be noted that when they first entered the Yibo Realm, they were actually only Dao Lord at the Second Level.

As time passed, Zhou Zheng and Ji Ning sat cross-legged at the entrance outside the right-hand passage, waiting for the Sect Master Jiu Chen to come out.

Both master and disciple were on the Ultimate Dao and had reached the third level. They would occasionally exchange ideas and each gained something from it.

Of course, none of these are significant gains. Ultimate Dao, one must find their own path; the paths of others can only serve as references.

Finally, on this day—

"Haha, I have fulfilled my mission!" The Sect Master Jiu Chen laughed as he walked out of the seven-colored passage, handing the three tokens to Ji Ning and Zhou Zheng respectively.

The tokens for the Sect Master Jiu Chen's passage are the three, five, and eight tokens.

Among them, Ji Ning obtained the Eighth Command Token, while Zhou Zheng obtained the third and fifth tokens. Zhou Zheng had already heard Ji Ning's thoughts about the Sect Master Jiu Chen, so he did not refuse at this moment.

Of course, the Sect Master Jiu Chen was indeed quite generous. The fruits represented by these tokens were something that even the Sovereigns would covet, and the fact that the Sect Master Jiu Chen could give them away without hesitation showed his character.

"Jiu Chen, this is for you!" Zhou Zheng suddenly threw out a stream of light, which was enveloped in a black mist. Apart from Zhou Zheng, no one knew what it was.

"What is this?" Jiu Chen asked, somewhat puzzled, as he took the item enveloped in the black mist.

In that instant, the Sect Master Jiu Chen knew what Zhou Zheng had given him.

"This, this..."

The Sect Master Jiu Chen's eyes widened, and he began to stammer.

"Dao Lord Cheng Tian, what are you doing?" The Sect Master Jiu Chen looked at Zhou Zheng, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Jiu Chen, what's wrong?" Ji Ning asked, somewhat puzzled.

"It's the Dongming Jade Talisman!" Jiu Chen transmitted his voice.

"The Dongming Jade Talisman?"

Ji Ning was stunned for a moment.

"In terms of actual value, the Dongming Jade Talisman is far inferior to these two command tokens!" Zhou Zheng explained with a smile:

"I do need these two tokens, so I won't refuse if you give them to me Jiu Chen. But in my heart, the help I gave you before is not worth these two tokens. Consider this Dongming Jade Talisman as my compensation to you!"

This was indeed Zhou Zheng's true thought. Zhou Zheng's help to the Sect Master Jiu Chen was only in helping him drive away the gang attack from Dao Lord Sijia and Dao Lord Xuehuan. As for what happened afterward, it was Zhou Zheng and Ji Ning who put in the effort.

Ji Ning's help to the Sect Master Jiu Chen was different. In the Second Layer World, Ji Ning risked being surrounded and beaten by more than twenty peak Dao Lord to hide the Sect Master Jiu Chen for ten years. Ji Ning's sacrifice was entirely worth the Eighth Command Token Talisman.

"But we are all Dao Lord, and the reason I was able to obtain these three tokens so easily is because Dao Lord Cheng Tian attracted the attention of other top-tier items!" Jiu Chen shook his head like a rattle drum. Perhaps the true value of the Dongming Jade Talisman was indeed not as great as any of the Fruit Token.

But for any Dao Lord, they would probably be willing to exchange nine command tokens for one Dongming Jade Talisman.

In Dao Lord's eyes, nothing is more important than Dao Merge!

Needless to say, Zhou Zheng had helped him before. Even if he hadn't, the fact that he exchanged two Fruit Token for one Dongming Jade Talisman was enough to make him feel extremely uneasy.

"We are indeed Dao Lord, but..." Zhou Zheng shook his head. The Sect Master Jiu Chen felt somewhat puzzled, wondering what Zhou Zheng wanted to say.

"Master, even if these Dongming Jade Talisman aren't very useful to us, three Dongming Jade Talisman together will still be useful, right?" Ji Ning asked through telepathy with some doubt.

"The effect of the Dongming Jade Talisman in simulating the Dao Merge is too weak!" Zhou Zheng also transmitted his voice:

"As far as I know, there is a treasure called the Dao Integration Fire Cloud Flower, which can enable peak Dao Lord to completely simulate nine Dao Merge. This is the real treasure that is useful to us!"

"To allow peak Dao Lord to fully simulate the nine stages of Dao Merge?"

Ji Ning was stunned. The Dongming Jade Talisman could only allow peak Dao Lord to simulate an incomplete Dao Merge once, but this so-called "Dao Integration Fire Cloud Flower" could allow peak Dao Lord to simulate nine complete Dao Merge.

The difference between the two is like heaven and earth!

"I have never heard of such an incredible treasure in the records of the Mangya Kingdom or the legends of the Endless Territory. However, since Master has mentioned it, it must exist!" Ji Ning suppressed his shock. He remembered the name "Dao Integration Fire Cloud Flower" and realized for the first time that Zhou Zheng must have a secret.

"Although I fought for the Dongming Jade Talisman, I only fought for it as an ordinary treasure. I didn't value it too much!" Zhou Zheng spoke again, and Ji Ning understood Zhou Zheng's thoughts.

Indeed, knowing about the Dao Integration Fire Cloud Flower, the Dongming Jade Talisman seems rather insignificant.
