Houtu Grows Weary of War! Sights at the Blood Sea
It was alright inside his dojo; even the Power of the Heavenly Dao couldn't enter his dojo without his knowledge.
But outside his temple.
Ever since Hongjun merged with the Heavenly Dao, Ao Changsheng has been completely unable to detect whether Hongjun is investigating or not.
That old spy!
"They've come to deliver treasure, how can I not be angry, not be angry, not... how can I not be angry!"
Ao Changsheng snorted twice, slapped the shattered void back together, took the Great Dao of Water, and returned directly to his dojo.
"You've been scheming, haven't you!"
"This time, I'll play with you!"
Although he was angry at Hongjun's childish behavior, Ao Changsheng was still quite satisfied with the Great Dao of Water.
The moment he got his hands on it, Ao Changsheng thoroughly examined the Great Dao of Water.
Shouldn't one say he truly deserves to be called a master who is in harmony with the Heavenly Dao?
The method is so advanced that it can clearly imprint the complete Great Dao of Water directly into a mass of water.
This crystal-clear water sphere, containing the complete Great Dao of Water, would be incredibly valuable if it were obtained by a cultivator who practiced the Great Dao of Water in the Primordial World.
Even a Great Daluo, after observing and learning from this, would likely break through to Quasi-Sage at an incredible speed.
Then he advanced triumphantly all the way to the Quasi-Sage Great Perfection, or even to the point of becoming a Saint through the union of the Dao.
However, for cultivators above that level, whether it's Dao-Merging Sage or Hunyuan Daluo, the effect will be much less.
After all, regardless of whether one is Dao-Merging Sage or Hunyuan Daluo, the biggest problem in cultivation has never been whether one can clearly sense the Great Dao.
Rather, it is the interference between one's own perfected Great Dao of cultivation and other Great Dao.
Although Ao Changsheng and countless other powerful cultivators often talked about the Three Thousand Great Dao.
But in reality, many practitioners are aware of this.
There are no three thousand, or more, Great Dao in this world.
In the entire Primordial World, and even in the entire Chaos World, there is only one Great Dao, and that is the Supreme Great Dao of Chaos!
The Supreme Great Dao of Chaos evolved everything within the Chaos; therefore, everything in the world contains a portion of the Supreme Great Dao of Chaos.
These are great paths, such as the Great Dao of Water, the Great Dao of Fire, the Great Dao of the Five Elements, and the Great Dao of Great Dao of Space and Time.
It is merely a cultivator's partial understanding of the Supreme Great Dao of Chaos from a certain perspective, based on everything in this world.
The cultivation of Hunyuan involves constantly comprehending these great Great Dao, Revert to Root, Return to Origin, and in doing so, comprehending the complete Supreme Great Dao of Chaos.
Every perfect Great Dao signifies that the Great Dao perceived from that perspective has reached its ultimate point, with no further advancement possible.
Having already comprehended a complete Great Dao, one may wish to perceive Great Dao from another perspective, even if it is a similar or related Great Dao.
They will all be severely affected, making it difficult to understand.
In this respect, it pales in comparison to the Seed of the Great Dao that Ao Changsheng obtained through daily check-ins.
This Seed of the Great Dao grows into the Tree of the Great Dao, bearing Dao Fruit that contain the complete Great Dao. Once consumed...
Then one will directly comprehend the most complete Great Dao, and will not suffer such torment.
So...
Upon returning to the Daoist temple, Ao Changsheng did not rush to disperse his avatar. Instead, he took the Great Dao of Water and headed towards the Seed of the Great Dao.
Over tens of millions of years...
That once ordinary seed has grown, no, it has sprouted a tiny green shoot.
Looking at the Great Seed of the Great Dao rooted in the void before him, its speed of absorbing and releasing Innate Spiritual Qi was much faster than before.
He glanced down at the Great Dao of Water in his hand, which resembled a different kind of water sphere, and then tossed it over.
Wow~
The moment the Great Dao of Water touched the tiny sprout within the Great Dao, it was instantly absorbed at an incredible speed.
A blue glow surrounded the Seed of the Seed of the Great Dao.
A rich, profound sense of the Great Dao of Water emanates from this seed.
Moreover, as the owner of this Seed of the Great Dao, Ao Changsheng could clearly sense the changes in the Seed of the Great Dao at this moment!
If we say that the previous Seed of the Great Dao absorbed Innate Spiritual Qi, with one percent of Spiritual Qi used for its own growth and ninety-nine percent used to support the growth of the Great Dao...
Now, having absorbed the Seed of the Great Dao of the Great Dao of Water, the Innate Spiritual Qi it absorbs will be used to supply its own growth 100%.
"This rate of growth... it will bear the Dao Fruit of Great Dao of Water before the end of this era."
Ao Changsheng was fairly satisfied with this speed.
This is actually the correct way to cultivate the Seed of the Great Dao.
Of course, it's not necessary to directly invest in a complete Great Dao of Water like Ao Changsheng did.
With just a few fragments of the Great Dao, the Seed of the Great Dao can be guided to cultivate a Dao Fruit of a specific Great Dao, just as they are now.
While it won't be as fast as it is now, it will greatly accelerate the speed of the results.
As before, the freely growing Tree of the Great Dao would bear numerous Fruit of the Great Dao depending on where it took root.
Just as Seed of the Great Dao that takes root in the Primordial World will simultaneously bear Great Dao Fruit corresponding to the type of Great Dao in the Primordial World.
This greatly delays its growth and the speed of its results.
However, if it is Seed of the Great Dao rooted in Chaos, it will only bear one fruit, a Dao Fruit of the Supreme Great Dao of Chaos.
But... the time required for that kind of growth, Ao Changsheng estimated, would probably be measured in Boundless Immeasurable Tribulation.
Time flies! Like a white horse galloping past a crack in the wall!
Countless years have passed in the Primordial World.
Even some Daluo Immortals or Quasi-Sage probably don't remember how much time has passed in this era.
Only the Heavenly Court Calendar records the passing of time.
The Heavenly Emperor's Calendar is the 38,642nd Yuanhui.
Netherworld Blood Sea!
"Is this... the Netherworld Blood Sea?"
Houtu gazed at the crimson sea of blood, where waves of blood surged and no fish, shrimp, birds, or insects Blood Sea, and felt an overwhelming sense of unease.
How did I end up here?
Originally, he was traveling through the Primordial World to relax because he was annoyed by the struggle with the Demon Race, but when he saw the scarlet Netherworld Blood Sea...
Houtu couldn't help but think of the countless Demon Race who had died at her hands, and her heart became even more troubled.
Although she was feeling troubled, Houtu cultivated the profound and inclusive Great Dao of Earth, possessing an excellent temperament, and had no desire to vent her frustrations.
He simply sat cross-legged, staring blankly at the Netherworld Blood Sea.
"When will this war ever end?!"
More than 38,000 eras have passed in this era, and the Lich and Demon races have also fought for more than 38,000 eras.
Houtu truly loathed war.
Sometimes, Houtu even harbored a subtle sense of disgust towards the Witch Race.
This is also the main reason why Houtu left the Witch Race to relax in the Primordial World.
But after traveling through the Primordial World for tens of thousands of years, Houtu saw were the battles between the Wu and Yao races and the battles between their subordinate races.
The entire Primordial World seemed to be filled with the struggle between the witch and demon races.
"It's so quiet!"
Houtu was deep in thought, suddenly looked up and looked around, as if she had just noticed that this was not only happening in the Netherworld Blood Sea.
Even within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles surrounding this Netherworld Blood Sea, there are hardly any living beings.
"I never imagined that the most peaceful area in the Primordial World, free from the conflict between the witches and demons, would be near this Netherworld Blood Sea." Houtu couldn't help but chuckle self-deprecatingly.
Houtu the years, Tu traveled throughout the Primordial World and visited the vicinity of many powerful Primordial World's dojos.
However, wherever living beings exist near the dojo of any powerful being, there will be struggles, whether overt or covert.
The vast majority of these were caused by hostile wars between liches.
"When did the Netherworld Blood Sea, a place where the malevolent energy of heaven and earth gathers and is despised by witches and demons, become one of the few peaceful places in the Primordial World?"
Softly murmuring to herself, Houtu raised her head and looked at the gloomy sky. For some reason, she felt an urge to cry.
"Father God..."
Tears welled up in Houtu's eyes as she suddenly recalled the beliefs that her Witch Race upheld when they were born millions of years ago.
"What kind of protection is this, this 'protecting the Primordial World, protecting the world created by the Father God'?!"
Houtu's emotions suddenly spiraled out of control.
The Quasi-Sage's heart stirred, and heaven and earth lost their color.
At this moment, the celestial phenomena within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles suddenly turned extremely gloomy as Houtu lost control of her emotions.
A light drizzle fell from the sky.
And there are signs that the rain will continue to fall.
And at that very moment...
"Haha, that's great!"
Above the distant Blood Sea sudden roar erupted as two towering figures rose from beneath the surface.
One was a human with a thousand hands and arms, a blue-faced head with fangs, and was extremely ferocious; the other was a beast with a hundred heads and a thousand eyes, and looked even more terrifying.
These were none other than the two Asura Race Asura Race, the only race in the Netherworld Blood Sea.
Two towering Asura, ignoring the drizzle from the sky, clashed fiercely on the Blood Sea, causing a sudden upheaval and turbulent storm.
The blood-red waves surged and crashed against the shore.
The previously calm Netherworld Blood Sea became incredibly violent, and Houtu on the shore was also awakened by the commotion.
He quickly composed himself and stared expressionlessly at the two enormous figures locked in battle amidst the Blood Sea.
A faint hint of disgust flickered in his eyes.
The peaceful place she had finally found was shattered.
If Houtu hadn't been so disgusted with killing at that moment, she might have slapped them down and obliterated Asura instantly.
The two Asura Race, locked in fierce combat, were clearly unaware that they had unknowingly teetered on the brink of death.
Although they looked tall and ferocious, these two Asura were only at the Golden Immortal, so how could they possibly discover the existence of Houtu on the shore?
The battle on the Blood Sea gradually intensified.
However, these two Asura had clearly not just begun their battle, but had been fighting all the way from the depths of the Blood Sea to its edge.
The beast-bodied, hundred-headed, thousand-eyed Asura had already been severely injured by another human-bodied Asura with a thousand hands and a thousand arms.
They're just putting up a brave front right now.
The thousand-armed Asura clearly had no intention of holding back, laughing wildly as it launched a series of attacks, killing the beast-bodied Asura instantly.
Seeing this, Houtu's disgust became even more obvious, and she turned to leave.
And at that very moment...
The soul of the beast-bodied Asura floated out from its completely lifeless body.
"Amosa, you bastard, you killed me again!" the beast-bodied Asura soul roared, its voice filled with resentment.
But strangely, there was no anger or hatred.
"Haha, sorry! I couldn't stop again..." the thousand-armed Asura said, but with a smug smile on his face, he showed no intention of apologizing.
"Damn it, if you deliberately kill me again next time, I won't agree to fight you anymore." The beast-bodied Asura soul growled as it looked at the other party's smug expression.
Upon hearing the beast-bodied Asura's words, the thousand-armed Asura quickly dropped his smugness and replaced it with a fawning apology.
"Sorry, sorry! It won't happen again..."
One soul and one Asura, each speaking to the other, stepped into the Blood Sea together. The thousand-armed Asura even took the initiative to protect the other's soul, preventing it from being contaminated by the waters of the Blood Sea.
On the shore of the Blood Sea, Houtu stared blankly at the scene before her.
They were fighting tooth and nail without holding back just a moment ago, how come they're now... best friends?
What's going on here?
The previous disgust was no longer present in Houtu's eyes; instead, a strong curiosity arose within them.
