A Half-Saint Descends, Three More Great Daos Achieved
"Ah--!!!"
The Netherworld Immortal Venerable let out an extremely shrill scream!
His dark Great Dao, faced with this extremely powerful and destructive thunder and fire force, was like encountering its nemesis, instantly melting away like ice and snow!
Immediately afterwards, the seventh-tier immortal artifact [Netherworld Ghost Domain], which sealed off heaven and earth, also let out a mournful cry under this terrifying impact, unable to bear the burden.
"Snap!"
The magical artifact... is shattered!
"No! Spare me! I am..."
Before the Netherworld Immortal Venerable could finish pleading, he was completely engulfed by the torrent of thunder and fire!
Physical body vaporized!
The Primordial Spirit collapses!
The Great Dao has collapsed!
Immortal Venerable of this generation didn't even have a chance to escape; he perished completely under this attack!
The thunder and fire dissipated in the Xukong.
With a casual gesture, Dongfang Yueming seized a wisp of the Netherworld Immortal Venerable's remaining essence and his storage ring.
"Soul Search!"
[Ding! Absorbed Immortal Venerable- level insights...]
[Progress of "Origin Immortal Art: Immortal Venerable Chapter": 60%...80%!]
[Progress of "Origin Immortal Art: Immortal Saint Chapter": 20%...30%!]
"Phew... not bad."
Dongfang Yueming nodded in satisfaction.
He turned around and looked at Jiang Liuli, who was already dumbfounded.
Jiang Liuli was looking at him with the eyes of someone looking at a monster, her body stiff, not daring to even breathe.
"Now, it's time to fulfill your promise."
Dongfang Yueming stretched out his hand.
"Fragmentary map."
"Ah? Yes... yes!"
As if waking from a dream, Jiang Liuli hurriedly took out the [Relic Fragment Map] she had won and respectfully handed it to Dongfang Yueming with trembling hands.
At this moment, how could she dare to harbor even the slightest bit of arrogance befitting a "prodigy"?
The man before me kills Immortal Venerable like slaughtering dogs!
Moreover... there are two Great Dao!
This is clearly a... Half-Saint disguised as Immortal Emperor!
"Very good."
Dongfang Yueming put away the map, but suddenly frowned.
His Perfection [Superior Law of Space] sensed an extremely terrifying aura tearing through space and rapidly approaching!
That aura contained a dual fluctuation of "force" and "space"!
"Half-Saint?"
Dongfang Yueming glanced at Jiang Liuli.
"Looks like the help you called has arrived."
Jiang Liuli's face paled, and she was about to explain.
It's alright.
Dongfang Yueming said calmly, "For the sake of the incomplete map, I will spare your life."
"However, I have no interest in having tea with your elders."
"They're gone."
The words had barely left his mouth.
[Perfection, Superior, Law of Space] activated!
Dongfang Yueming's figure blurred instantly, merging directly into the deeper Xukong turbulence and disappearing without a trace.
Looking at the empty Xukong, Jiang Liuli's legs went weak, and she almost collapsed to the ground.
In her mind, countless clues began to connect wildly.
[The Great Dao of Lightning...]
Not long ago, the Divine Firmament Sect was wiped out by a mysterious powerhouse who mastered the dual Great Dao of 'Thunder' and 'Strength'...
[And this person before me possesses the power of 'thunder' and 'fire'...]
[Furthermore, he also possesses a fragment of the Divine Firmament Sect's map...]
Jiang Liuli suddenly covered her mouth, her eyes filled with horror!
"Wait, could it be... he's the ruthless man who destroyed the Divine Firmament Sect?!"
"But... wasn't he rumored to only know lightning and power? How come now... he has a new Great Dao of Fire?!"
"Three... three Great Dao?!"
"Wouldn't that mean... Junior Immortal Saint?!"
This speculation left her feeling suffocated!
Just then!
"Boom--!!!"
The space above the Ghost Market was forcibly torn apart by a giant golden hand!
A vast, boundless, and terrifying pressure, capable of suppressing all ages, descended upon this place!
Half-Saint!
A middle-aged man, clad in golden armor and possessing a towering, mountain-like physique, emerged from the crack, his surroundings distorting like ripples in water.
Giant God Heavenly Palace - Giant Spirit Half-Saint!
He has mastered the [Great Dao of Force] and the [Great Dao of Space], making him a rare combat force within the Giant God Heavenly Palace!
"Liuli!"
The Giant Spirit Half-Saint's gaze was like lightning, instantly locking onto Jiang Liuli below.
When he saw the broken fragments of the seventh-tier immortal artifacts around him, and the terrifying aura of lightning and fire remaining in the air, his expression instantly became extremely solemn!
"This is... a phenomenon signifying the fall of Immortal Venerable?!"
"And Immortal Venerable wielding a seventh-tier Celestial Artifact?!"
He strode up to Jiang Liuli and asked eagerly:
"Liuli, are you alright? Who did this?!"
Jiang Liuli looked at her elder, gave a wry smile, and pointed in the direction where Dongfang Yueming had disappeared.
"Elder... you're too late."
That person... is gone.
"He's... terribly strong."
A temporary cave dwelling deep within the Xukong void.
Dongfang Yueming toyed with the three fragments of the map that exuded an ancient aura in his hands.
The moment the three fragments of the map came into contact, without any external force, they merged into one like long-lost lovers reunited!
"Buzz--!"
A strange spatial fluctuation flashed by.
The fragmented map disappeared, replaced by an ancient token made entirely of the bone of an unknown animal, with the words "Eight Desolations" engraved on its surface.
[Eight Desolations Token]!
"With this token, one can sense the coordinates of the ruins at any time and open a teleportation channel."
Dongfang Yueming probed with his divine sense and immediately grasped how to use it.
"However, there's no rush."
He tucked the token away, his gaze hardening.
Sharpening your axe won't delay your woodcutting.
"During this trip to the black market, I collected a massive amount of Law Crystal. Now, it's time to convert them into combat power!"
With a wave of his sleeve, several tightly sealed jade boxes floated in front of him.
"Let's start with... gold!"
A [Higher Law Crystal - Gold] radiating extreme sharpness burst forth from the box!
"Absorb! Point Allocation!"
[Ding! Consumed... [Advanced Law of Geng Metal] Perfection!]
At this moment, he already possessed three Perfection high-level metal-type laws.
"The Three Elements Return to One, the Great Dao of Metal... Condensation!"
"Clang--!!!"
A clear and resounding sword cry exploded in his Sea of Consciousness!
Three golden Higher Law runes were forged and recombined amidst that endless sharpness!
A supreme state of mind, "indestructible and indestructible," was born with a roar!
[The Great Dao of Metal] -- Success!
Dongfang Yueming flicked his fingers, his fingertips not touching the Xukong, but the space in front of him cracked open with a neat cut, as if it had been cut by some invisible blade.
"Again! Wind!"
[Higher Law Crystal - Wind] Shattered!
Absorb, Point Allocation, and Perfection!
The three superior wind-elemental laws have converged!
"The wind rises!"
Dongfang Yueming gave a low shout.
"Call--"
Within the Sea of Consciousness, a fierce wind arose! This was no ordinary wind, but a bone-chilling, soul-consuming gale from the heavens, an all-pervasive wind of the Xukong!
Three storms converged and transformed into a cyan Dao seed!
[The Great Dao of Wind] -- Achieved!
Next up is the most tedious but also the most anticipated... darkness!
"Darkness is often purer than light."
Dongfang Yueming waved his hands repeatedly.
First, two [Mid-Level Law Crystal - Dark]!
Absorb, Point Allocation, and Perfection!
With the addition of the mid-level dark law he already possessed, he now has three mid-level laws at his disposal!
"Melt!"
A jet-black [Advanced Dark Law] rune, seemingly capable of swallowing light, was born!
Immediately afterwards, two more [Higher Law Crystals - Dark] appeared!
Absorb, Point Allocation, and Perfection!
At this moment, the three superior dark-elemental laws, like three bottomless black holes, floated deep within the Sea of Consciousness.
"The ultimate darkness is... nothingness!"
"The Great Dao... returns to its rightful place!"
"Boom--!!!"
A chilling wave of darkness erupted, instantly extinguishing all light within the cave. Even divine sense that probed into it was instantly swallowed up!
[The Great Dao of Darkness] -- Completed!
at last.
He took out the [Higher Law Crystal - Water].
Absorb, Point Allocation, and Perfection!
At this point, he possessed two Perfection superior water-based laws within his body.
"Call..."
Dongfang Yueming stood up, his body radiating Daoist energy, like the master of all Dao!
He looked inward at himself, gazing at the dazzling array of laws on the panel, his heart filled with boundless pride!
[Current Law Status]:
The Great Dao (8): Fire, Earth, Thunder, Strength, Wood, Metal, Wind, Darkness!
Superior (2): Water (Double Superior), Space (Perfection).
Median (1 item): Healed (Perfection).
"Eight Great Dao..."
"According to the Taiyi Immortal Dynasty's classification, mastering seven Great Dao qualifies one as... Advanced Immortal Saint!"
"And I, with only the cultivation of Immortal Emperor Perfection, have already mastered eight Great Dao!"
"If word got out about such a foundation, even the Immortal Saint of the Supreme Immortal Domain would be terrified!"
After calming her excitement, Dongfang Yueming turned her gaze to the final "blind box".
That's... the storage ring of the Netherworld Immortal Venerable!
"A Immortal Venerable, or a tycoon who has controlled the black market for countless years, his wealth will definitely not disappoint me."
He probed with his divine sense and violently broke through the restriction.
"Splash--!"
Endless precious light instantly filled the entire cave!
[Low-grade Immortal Stone: 3,000,000,000!] (3 billion!)
[Mid-grade Immortal Stone: 20,000,000!] (20 million!)
[High-quality Immortal Stone: 30,000!]
"Hiss--!"
Even though Dongfang Yueming was used to sudden wealth, he couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.
"Thirty billion low-grade immortal stones alone?! Did this old ghost carry the entire Ghost Market's liquid assets with him?"
"And this immortal gold..."
[Sixth-Tier Immortal Gold: 20 pieces!]
[Seventh-Tier Immortal Gold: 2 pieces!]
"We've struck it rich! We've struck it rich!"
Dongfang Yueming's lips curled into a wild smile.
Just as he was about to put away these treasures, his gaze was suddenly drawn to an inconspicuous blue jade box in the corner.
There were no powerful restrictions on the jade box, but it exuded an extremely pure and moist aura.
A thought struck him, and with a flick of his wrist, the jade box fell into his palm.
Open.
"Buzz--!"
A crystal, entirely azure blue, as if containing a vast ocean, lay quietly within.
[Higher Law Crystal - Water]!
"This is..."
Dongfang Yueming was stunned for a moment, then burst into hearty laughter!
"Hahaha! This is truly heaven's help!"
"I thought the Great Dao of Water wouldn't be completed until later, I never expected this old ghost to have such a hidden trick up his sleeve!"
"With this one, my Higher Law... are complete!"
"Nine paths..."
Nine is the ultimate number!
"If the Great Dao of Water were also possible..."
"I will then reign supreme over the world with... the invincible power of the Nine Great Dao!"
