Cultivation in Chaos! Yangmei's Schemes
Vast Chaos.
In a gap between Chaos currents of air, where there were no reference points, an old man with green hair and green eyes opened his eyes.
This must be none other than Great Immortal Yangmei who just escaped from Ao Changsheng's side.
Yangmei's expression was not good at this moment.
Of course, he wasn't frustrated because he had once again witnessed Ao Changsheng's escape.
Instead...
Ao Changsheng found himself in a difficult situation at this moment.
The more excited they were when they encountered Ao Changsheng in the vast Chaos, the more furious they were now at how troublesome Ao Changsheng was.
Given his relationship with Ao Changsheng, he naturally wouldn't be overjoyed to have encountered an old friend from the Primordial World.
After all, Yangmei didn't even know Ao Changsheng's name or Daoist title until now, so how could he be happy about something like this?
He would be excited because he had finally encountered a being from the Primordial World amidst the Chaos.
Back then, when he left the Primordial World, he was forced by Hongjun to make Great Dao Oath, promising never to reveal any information about the Primordial World in any way.
The coordinates and aura of the Primordial World must not be revealed to anyone, and absolutely no one should be taken to the Primordial World in any way.
This virtually eliminated Yangmei's hope of returning to the Primordial World.
Of course, there are treasures within the Chaos that can invalidate the Great Dao Oath, but...
That level of treasure was simply beyond his reach.
As for using information from the Primordial World to find powerful beings in the Chaos and exchange it for treasures that could exempt one from the Great Dao Oath...
The Primordial World resources were so precious that they could be exchanged for such treasures.
But...
Yangmei Mei dared not reveal any information about the Primordial World.
Otherwise...
It wasn't that the other party was exchanging treasures for information about the Primordial World; instead, they directly extracted information about the Primordial World from his Primordial Spirit and soul.
This kind of thing...
This is not unusual in the Primordial World.
In particular, Yangmei originally intended to exchange for a treasure that could exempt him from the Great Dao Oath.
Even with any treasure present, the Great Dao Oath cannot guarantee his safety.
Naturally... Yangmei dared not reveal any information about the Primordial World within the Chaos.
But...
He discovered another creature from the Primordial World.
A Primordial World being that knows the coordinates and aura of Primordial World.
One can imagine just how excited Yangmei was at that moment.
Even when Yangmei discovered that Ao Changsheng was a Hunyuan Daluo, although she felt somewhat troubled, she still didn't take it seriously.
As for Yangmei's initial message...
He simply wanted to inform a friend in the Chaos.
They summoned him and searched the soul of Ao Changsheng, whom they were about to capture, to find the location of the Primordial World.
Afterwards, she took him with her to the Primordial World.
As for the Great Dao Oath.
Yangmei didn't reveal any information about the Primordial World, and he didn't lead the way back, nor did he return voluntarily.
Instead, they were swept back; does this... violate the Great Dao Oath?
This was Yangmei's original plan, but...
Yangmei never imagined that a Hunyuan Daluo born in the Primordial World would be so powerful.
It's important to understand that once you reach the Hunyuan Realm, any further progress requires time to be measured in epochs.
Even if Ao Changsheng was Hunyuan Daluo born in some kind of precious land in the Primordial World, his existence was only for a short period of one or two eras.
How powerful can one become in such a short time?
In just one or two eras, even in a treasure land like the Primordial World, one could at most comprehend the second Great Dao.
Moreover, it was merely a realization.
The Primordial World is conducive to cultivation, but only to enlightenment. For Hunyuan Daluo to truly progress...
What is needed is to integrate the Great Dao that one has come to understand into one's own fundamental Great Dao, thereby strengthening one's own Great Dao.
However, the Primordial World can help one comprehend the Dao, but it cannot help one merge with the Dao.
Therefore, in Yangmei's mind, Ao Changsheng probably hadn't yet integrated the second Great Dao into his own fundamental Great Dao.
With that kind of strength, taking him down would be incredibly easy.
But...
Yangmei never expected that Ao Changsheng's strength was completely beyond his imagination.
Which method, let alone comprehending the second Great Dao and integrating it into the fundamental Great Dao.
Even if it were said that the other party had comprehended seven or eight Great Dao and integrated them into the Fundamental Great Dao, Yangmei would believe it.
Although in Yangmei's perception, Ao Changsheng's comprehension was likely limited to weak and not particularly powerful Great Dao.
However, the integration of seven or eight Great Dao into the fundamental Great Dao is a terrifyingly rapid advancement.
It's... frighteningly stupid!
A flicker of jealousy flashed in Yangmei's eyes.
The Primordial World treasure land, the innate talent for merging with the Dao... whichever it is, it's the reason why Yangmei is jealous of Ao Changsheng at this moment.
In particular, his talent for integrating the Dao was such that he comprehended seven or eight Great Dao in just one or two eras and integrated them into the fundamental Great Dao.
Such comprehension, such innate talent for integrating the Dao, would surely arouse deep envy and jealousy throughout the entire Chaos.
"It's a pity that such talent was born into a being who doesn't know how to cultivate."
Yangmei felt jealous, but also a little smug.
Having lived in the Primordial World for a long time, he was well aware that there was no tradition of cultivation in the Primordial World.
Or to be more precise, there is no cultivation lineage above the Hunyuan.
It was precisely because of this that a cultivator with astonishing talent embarked on a wrong path of cultivation.
That's right.
That means you've reached the wrong stage of spiritual practice.
It was not passed down in the Primordial World, but in the Chaos, everyone at the Hunyuan Realm knew about it.
The cultivation of the Hunyuan Daluo becomes increasingly difficult.
However, there are techniques involved in cultivating the Hunyuan Realm.
Although it is widely believed throughout the Chaos that by merging with the Three Thousand Great Dao, one can comprehend the complete Great Dao of Chaos.
But...
If one truly comprehends each of the Great Dao and integrates them into one's own Great Dao, then one can truly merge them into one's own Great Dao.
This is undoubtedly a dead end.
As one integrates more and more fundamental Great Dao into one's own cultivation Great Dao, and gains a deeper understanding of cultivation, the difficulty of comprehending new Great Dao increases dramatically.
Not to mention integrating the new Great Dao into one's own fundamental Great Dao.
This is not a falsehood, but a fact universally acknowledged by all demons and gods within the Chaos.
It's like after comprehending nine Great Dao and integrating them into one's own fundamental Great Dao, the difficulty of comprehending the tenth Great Dao will experience a leap.
The subsequent nineteenth, twenty-ninth, and thirty-ninth years all saw a price increase every tenth year. This was the result of countless powerful demons testing the law in the Chaos.
The true way of cultivation lies within Chaos.
Planning should be done from the very beginning.
In the initial stages, besides one's own fundamental Great Dao, one should try to choose those powerful and advanced Great Dao to cultivate.
It's like choosing to comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Dao, such as creation, destruction, yin and yang, the Five Elements, and reincarnation—these contain even more rules and secrets of the Great Dao of Chaos.
In this way, although it will be much more difficult in the early stages and the cultivation will be much slower.
But the growth in strength won't be much slower.
After all, the gains from integrating a higher Great Dao into one's own Great Dao are completely different from those from integrating a lower Great Dao into one's own Great Dao.
Moreover, as one integrates more and more advanced Great Dao, the difficulty of integrating simpler Great Dao in the future will not increase much.
For example, after comprehending the Great Dao of the Five Elements and integrating it into one's own Great Dao.
Even if the difficulty of comprehending the five Great Dao of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth increases dramatically in the future, with the Great Dao of the Five Elements as a basis, it will certainly not be too difficult.
Even more so, there are rumors in the Chaos that if one comprehends a higher Great Dao, one does not need to comprehend the Three Thousand Great Dao to perceive the Supreme Great Dao of Chaos.
This idea was very popular in the realm of Chaos.
Of course, whether it's true or not is uncertain.
After all, no demon god has ever emerged from the Chaos to come into contact with or comprehend the Great Dao of Chaos.
But without a doubt, in the Chaos, choosing to comprehend and integrate those weaker Great Dao in the early stages was considered a dead end.
Seeing a once-in-a-generation genius walk down this dead end, especially when that person was Yangmei's enemy.
Yangmei felt nothing but immense joy.
However, after the initial pleasure, Yangmei became troubled again.
Although Ao Changsheng has embarked on a dead end by merging with so many weak Great Dao, Ao Changsheng strength is absolutely unparalleled at present.
In particular, he suspected that Ao Changsheng had already integrated the ninth Great Dao into his own fundamental Great Dao.
This would cause the difficulty of comprehending and integrating the tenth Great Dao to skyrocket to a terrifying level.
However, after merging the nine Great Dao into his own fundamental Great Dao, even the weaker Great Dao were now beyond Ao Changsheng's ability to withstand.
Even...
Even Hunyuan Daluo who hasn't comprehended and integrated more than three advanced Great Dao might not be a match for Ao Changsheng at this moment.
"Does... we really have to go find those guys?" A hint of hesitation appeared in Yangmei's eyes.
The "guys" Yangmei was referring to were naturally the ancient and powerful Chaos Demon God from the primordial Chaos.
Although in the Primordial World, Yangmei and the other Chaos Demon God who existed when Pangu created the world were called the Three Thousand Chaos Demon God.
It seemed to be some powerful demon god, an existence that traversed the Chaos.
But in reality... among these three thousand Chaos Demon God, there are very few powerful and ancient demon gods.
As one of the most outstanding among the three thousand demon gods, Yangmei barely had any fame in the vast Chaos.
And...
It was only because of his ability to escape after combining the Great Dao of Space with the Great Dao of the Void that he had gained considerable fame in the Chaos.
In terms of combat power, both the Great Dao of Space and the Great Dao of the Void are considered to be quite Great Dao among the higher Great Dao.
However, Yangmei's cultivation level was too weak, merely integrating one Great Dao into his own fundamental Great Dao.
Compared to those ancient and powerful demon gods in the Chaos, Yangmei was far, far inferior.
Only...
Just as Yangmei had worried, those ancient and powerful Chaos Demon God were not easy to deal with.
Even the Great Dao Oath cannot forever bind any being, nor can they be used to make a deal with any powerful and ancient demon god.
Only Old Devil of the same level, like Yangmei, a Chaos Demon God, could cooperate with him, even if they had some great fortuitous opportunity.
It might be alright in the short term, but in the long run, it will probably disappear silently into the Chaos.
Especially in a treasure land like the Primordial World, any powerful demon god who obtains it would probably kill all those who know about it and enjoy the treasure land for himself.
This is not just speculation.
Rather, it was simply the understanding that Chaos Demon God possessed regarding his own race.
Only...
Yangmei thought of Ao Changsheng's strength, and then of the Primordial World, a treasure trove of cultivation, and her heart began to struggle.
After a long while, a resolute look flashed in Yangmei's eyes.
Compared to watching helplessly as his enemies grow stronger in some precious land of Primordial World, he felt a sense of superiority.
It would be better to spread the information about this Primordial World and let those Old Devil conquer Primordial World.
That way, he might be able to take advantage of the chaos and return to the Primordial World.
And...
Things are different now.
In this vast Chaos, he was not the only one who knew the location of the Primordial World.
If handled properly, he could sell Ao Changsheng for a good price and obtain a treasure that could exempt him from the Great Dao Oath.
After releasing oneself from the Great Dao Oath, planning for the Primordial World will undoubtedly be much simpler.
Having made her decision, Yangmei immediately stopped hesitating, closed her eyes, and lay back down.
Outside the Chaos gap, a figure with Yangmei quietly appeared within the Chaos and drifted away.
On the other side.
After the confrontation with Yangmei.
Ao Changsheng didn't take it too seriously. After erasing his own traces, he controlled the Water Dragon World to change direction and accelerate forward.
He knew that Yangmei would definitely scheme against him again.
But in the vast Chaos, to encounter it even once is already an extreme coincidence, let alone to encounter it a second time...
Even if Yangmei were to search specifically for it, it would probably take a considerable amount of time.
And during this period.
Given Ao Changsheng's background, he has probably made countless improvements over time.
Naturally, he wouldn't pay too much attention to Yangmei.
But I never expected this.
Yangmei was actually planning to sell him for a good price.
Although he knew that the Primordial World was extraordinary, he never expected that news of the Primordial World could fetch a price in the Chaos.
Ultimately...
Or perhaps Ao Changsheng's time in the Chaos was too short, and his understanding of the Chaos was far too limited.
In the past, the highest level of cultivation among the Chaos Demon God that Ao Changsheng captured in the Chaos Bell was only the Hunyuan Golden Immortal level.
Chaos Demon God at this level know very little about the information within Chaos, and their knowledge is only slightly more limited than that of Ao Changsheng.
The first Chaos Demon God of Hunyuan Daluo that Ao Changsheng encountered was a madman who cultivated the Great Dao of Disorder.
They are still being suppressed and annihilated, so naturally no information about the Chaos can be gleaned from them.
Therefore, while Ao Changsheng wasn't entirely ignorant of information about Chaos, he was fairly well aware of it.
Even now, Ao Changsheng is still unaware of the cultivation techniques for the Hunyuan level.
Although...
Ao Changsheng possesses the supreme treasure, the Tree of the Great Dao, so he has no need for such trivial techniques.
But...
This fully demonstrates just how scarce Ao Changsheng's knowledge of this Chaos is.
But that's normal.
After all, Ao Changsheng in this life is a super-reclusive dragon.
