Great Tomb of Eternity.
In a dark tomb passage, a streak of light sped past.
"Damn it..."
Guiyi Dao Lord's face was gloomy, and a raging fire of anger was rising in his heart, making him extremely frustrated.
It was so close!
He was just a hair's breadth away from seizing the Chaos Primal Spirit, which would greatly advance his cultivation and significantly increase his chances of breaking through to the Immeasurable Realm.
But fate had other plans; he missed his chance to meet the Chaos Primal Spirit by just one step.
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became. Suddenly, he let out a muffled groan, his face turning slightly pale, and he angrily said:
"... Mystery Lord! Supreme Star Venerable!"
"Those two old bastards!"
Just now, he felt his soul imprint left in the " Reverse Light Jade Disk " being forcibly destroyed.
Without a doubt, this was the work of the Supreme Star Venerable and the Mystery Lord working together.
"This risky move not only resulted in a complete waste of effort, but also led to the loss of a primordial Innate Dao Artifact."
"This is an absolute rip-off!"
Guiyi Dao Lord's expression grew increasingly gloomy.
Not only did they fail to steal a chicken and lose the rice instead, they also inadvertently made two major enemies.
No, maybe three!
He recalled the Wanjie Dao Lord and his incredibly powerful law force, and a rare sense of regret welled up in his heart.
"If this child doesn't die, he will surely advance to the Third Step in the future!"
"My actions this time have made me his mortal enemy!"
Thinking of this, he felt extremely troubled.
He wanted to strike first and eliminate this threat beforehand, but that was impossible.
If he dares to make a move after returning to the Great Wilderness, the Mystery Lord and the Supreme Star Venerable will definitely join forces to beat him up.
"Why..."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh deeply:
"Forget it, let's explore the Great Tomb of Eternity for a few thousand years and lay low for a while."
Beyond the Great Tomb of Eternity.
The entrance to the tomb remains unchanged, still shrouded in a deep, dark gloom, seemingly Eternity unchanging.
Until a certain moment:
"Buzz!" "Buzz!"...
Three streaks of light shot out one after another, causing the black current at the entrance of the tomb to flicker erratically.
"Call!"
Chen Qingyu let out a long breath, revealing a hint of relief:
"They're finally out."
The three of them returned along the same route, which was much faster than venturing deeper into the Great Tomb of Eternity.
On the way, they encountered many Heavenly Remnant Corpse Lord. Most of them were dealt with by Chen Qingyu, while the few troublesome ones were killed by the Mystery Lord and Danyang Ju.
As a result, Chen Qingyu also obtained another token to enter the Great Tomb of Eternity.
" Star Sovereign, Little Qingyu."
The Mystery Lord looked at the two of them and said with a smile:
"We were able to achieve our goal of obtaining the Chaos Primal Spirit thanks to the great help of the two of you."
"I need to return to seclusion to cultivate and refine the power of the Chaos Primal Spirit, so I'll take my leave now."
"If there's an opportunity in the future, we can join forces again to explore this Great Tomb of Eternity."
"Good."
Danyang Ju nodded slightly.
Chen Qingyu, standing to the side, also bowed and said:
"Farewell, Mystery Lord."
The Mystery Lord laughed heartily, his figure transforming into a pale white streak of light as he soared upwards.
Goodbye!
After the Mystery Lord left:
Chen Qingyu turned his head, looked at Danyang Ju beside him, and asked:
"Master, we've repaid the favor to the Mystery Lord, but what about the Lord of Time?"
"Do we have to come back again?"
He hadn't forgotten:
Back then, Danyang Ju had personally requested nine " Azure Longevity Fruit " from the Lord of Time for his sake.
This is a favor, not too big, not too small, and it needs to be repaid eventually.
"That's not necessary."
Danyang Ju waved his hand and casually said:
"The favor I owe the Lord of Time isn't as great as the one I owe the Mystery Lord; there's no need for me to accompany him on this adventure to the Great Tomb of Eternity."
Nine fruits are nothing.
As he spoke, he complained:
"This time, I really suffered a huge loss."
"I accompanied him deep into the ancient tomb, killed many Heavenly Corpse Lords, and was almost besieged by other Third-Step Dao Lords, but we got nothing, not even the Heavenly Holy Water."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu said somewhat embarrassedly:
"It's my fault for dragging Master down with me."
Danyang Ju accompanied the Mystery Lord here solely to repay a past favor, essentially working for free.
Unlike him, who received a large portion of the benefits from the invitation from the Mystery Lord himself, even acquiring Innate Dao Artifact.
"Alright."
Danyang Ju patted his shoulder and smiled slightly:
I'm already very happy that you've had a fruitful trip.
"At my level, apart from the ' Chaos Primal Spirit ' and the ' Primordial Qi,' everything else is practically useless."
Chen Qingyu nodded and said:
"Then, Master, let's go."
soon:
Danyang Ju and Chen Qingyu transformed into two streaks of light, soaring into the sky and passing through the bottomless abyss where dark currents converged.
"Buzz!"
Chen Qingyu's soul trembled, and he saw his surroundings clearly again, realizing that he was in the sky near the Wanjie Dao Palace.
"You're back..."
Chen Qingyu looked up and immediately determined the timing.
Within the Great Tomb of Eternity, all paths were silent, and even the passage of time was difficult to discern, seemingly not corresponding to the outside world.
"Several months can pass in the outside world in a single trip."
Chen Qingyu's thoughts shifted, and he looked westward:
"It's time to pay a visit to that Infinite Dao Lord."
" The Heavenly Rule Divine Ruler should be obtained as soon as possible."
Several days later.
Within the Nine Peaks Domain, in the Infinite Dao Palace.
"Um?"
The Infinite Dao Lord, who was sitting cross-legged and silently comprehending the laws, suddenly opened his eyes.
He wore a light gray robe and a Zhengyang crown, and looked to be in his early twenties, with a dashing and debonair appearance.
The Infinite Dao Lord is not only the leader of the Nine Peaks Alliance, but also a renowned figure throughout the Great Wilderness, being one of the strongest Second Step Dao Lord.
At that moment, he seemed to sense something, and his expression shifted slightly:
" The Wanjie Dao Lord?"
"This person actually came to visit me..."
He paused for a moment, pondering, when he heard a clear voice enter the Dao Palace:
"I have come from Wanjie to pay my respects, and I hope that Brother Wuxian will not hesitate to grant me an audience."
Upon hearing this sound:
The Infinite Dao Lord stood up, flicked his sleeves, and said loudly:
"Brother Wanjie Jie, please wait a moment."
He hurried to the gate of the Dao Palace and saw a handsome young man in white robes waiting there with a beaming smile.
"Brother Wanjie Jie."
"Greetings, Brother Wuxian."
After the two exchanged greetings, Infinite Dao Lord invited Chen Qingyu to the main hall.
In the main hall:
After the two took their seats as host and guest, and exchanged pleasantries, Infinite Dao Lord inquired:
"Brother Wanjie, you have traveled across countless realms; what brings you here?"
Chen Qingyu smiled slightly and said:
"To be honest, fellow Daoist, I've heard that you possess a Innate Dao Artifact called the ' Heavenly Rule Divine Ruler '."
"This artifact is of great use to me, as it relates to my path to enlightenment."
"I am willing to exchange another Innate Dao Artifact for the ' Heavenly Rule Divine Ruler.' I wonder what Brother Wuxian thinks?"
You provided the starting sign-in rewards for the legendary Zhuang Shisan, featuring Chen Qingyu from the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Transformations Zhuang Shisan.
