Chapter 1001: Chapter 1001
Lu Chenzhou’s face darkened.
He extended a finger, and the green poisonous mist transformed into a small snake, injecting it into the golden thread.
Wang Changming led a Seventh Realm team, exploring an ancient battlefield.
Unexpectedly, an awakened ancient Demon Saint lurked here, with strength no less than a Second Step expert.
Currently at the peak of the Seventh Rank, he relied on an Eighth Rank top-grade Spiritual Weapon given by Lu Chenzhou, and his team’s array could barely hold their ground.
"Captain Wang, let’s retreat. We must temporarily abandon this place," said one of the Seventh Realm members.
"This Demon Saint has mastery of the Power Extreme Dao and is too strong. Our array can’t hold for long," someone said.
"Hahaha, I’ve been starving for countless years, finally, I can have a good meal," laughed the ancient Demon Saint, a lizard demon monster clad in heavy armor.
"It’s a pity, there should be clues to a Divine Artifact here. I’ll cover the retreat; you all withdraw. Next time, bring a Third Step to teach this beast a lesson," Wang said reluctantly.
He saw his disciple incessantly fighting at the front lines while he couldn’t make a significant impact, feeling a unique sense of anxiety in his heart.
Not everyone is like Little Ji, able to calmly accept their mediocre reality.
Thus, Wang aspired to achieve something and relieve some pressure from Lu Chenzhou.
Over the past few years, he found three clues to Divine Artifacts by himself, ranking among the top in the merit list, surpassing many in the Eighth Realm.
Bang! The large blade in the lizard Demon Saint’s hand sliced down, dividing the heavens and the earth. Wang blocked with his long spear, getting flung a thousand miles away.
Whoosh! The lizard Demon Saint swiftly flashed behind Wang through some divine skill, stabbing with a blade.
"It’s been a long time since I felt this overwhelming feeling," said the Demon Saint with a grin while battering Wang.
Wang calmly defended, watching his teammates retreat, searching for a chance to escape.
The gap between the Seventh and Eighth Realms was too vast.
It was unimaginable how Lu Chenzhou faced those demigods with just an Eighth Realm body.
At this moment, he empathized more with his disciple’s struggles.
"Boss, this human seems to be Lu Chenzhou’s master. We can’t let him go," a Demon Venerable shrieked.
"Good, kill this human, and the Holy Lord will surely reward me greatly," the Demon Saint said, his attacks growing increasingly domineering, like Mount Tai bearing down, continuous and unending.
It hadn’t noticed the faint red thread on its chest connecting to the golden thread on Wang Changming’s chest.
A green poisonous snake unseen by everyone instantly slithered into its chest along the thread.
The Demon Saint suddenly paused, incredulously gazing at its chest as green snakes broke out from its heart, slithering through its blood, spreading the concentrated late-Eighth Rank poisonous Dao Essence, its body beginning to dissolve, ultimately turning into a puddle of green slime.
Even its soul was slowly dissolving, transforming into a ray of light, flowing into Wang Changming’s golden thread.
Wang Changming stared dumbfoundedly at the suddenly dead Demon Saint, scanning his surroundings with his eyes.
Suddenly, Lu Chenzhou’s voice echoed in his mind: "Master, be cautious while training outside."
Wang Changming looked towards the Candle Dragon Order, finding the token still.
"Disciple, where are you?"
"I’m in Xia Realm, using the Causality Dao to speak with you across space."
"Is there such a method? Was it you who cursed the Demon Saint?"
"Yes, I learned that from Wangyue Demon Saint."
"Impressive, very impressive."
Wang Changming gazed at the void, his heart filled with emotion.
Cursing across realms, throughout history, only a few have such means.
This means the disciple has mastered the Causality Dao.
Among the many Daos, the Causality Dao may not be eye-catching in direct combat.
But in terms of support and utility, few can match it.
Long Yue wielded the Heavenly Origin Cauldron Sword, its dazzling brilliance shooting into the sky.
Not long ago, she also advanced to the Heavenly Realm, and Lu Chenzhou, after reforging the Cauldron Sword, bestowed it to Long Yue, making her one of the Hanhai Seven Sons.
Led by the Hanhai Sect Lord, they formed the most powerful Heavenly Separation Sword Formation team, achieving numerous feats, slaying two Demon Saints.
The Cauldron Sword proudly said: "Not bad, although your talent is slightly inferior to Lu Chenzhou’s, your Sword Heart is clear, and your Sword Dao will is strong. With my guidance, I wouldn’t say a Great Power, but reaching the topmost Third Step is certain. Your future achievements won’t be weaker than Wan Yan Old Ghost or the like."
The Cauldron Sword has now returned to Eighth Rank Spiritual Weapon quality, regaining its peak.
"Thank you, Senior Cauldron Sword, but is it appropriate to call the Hierarch directly by name?" Long Yue murmured softly.
"What’s inappropriate? Your Hierarch grew up under my watch. If not for me, he would have died at the start of the Great Catastrophe."
The Cauldron Sword boasted of its seniority.
"By the way, hurry and become stronger. I heard Lu Chenzhou is matchmaking, you still have a chance."
The Cauldron Sword teased about matchmaking.
Long Yue blushed and hurriedly said:
"Senior, please don’t say such things. It’s not good if Hierarch Lu finds out. With my current cultivation, I can’t even think about it."
"What’s there to fear? He’s in seclusion. He can’t hear us talk here, and so what if he does."
The Cauldron Sword raised its tone.
"Hahaha, Cauldron Sword, Cauldron Sword, you still talk so much."
Suddenly, a helpless laugh echoed in Long Yue’s mind.
In her Spiritual World, a figure in white robes appeared out of nowhere, observing the Cauldron Sword residing there.
"Greetings, Hierarch!" Long Yue reflexively saluted, suddenly sensing something amiss.
"Oh no, this is an illusion. The Hierarch is in seclusion; how can he appear here?" Long Yue drew her sword, looking around in confusion.
"It’s not an illusion. I found you through the Causality Line. Rest assured, I’m just experimenting with new abilities, I won’t invade your privacy... Also, Cauldron Sword, stop spreading nonsense outside."
Lu Chenzhou knocked on the Cauldron Sword’s head lightly, smiling faintly as he left.
The form the Cauldron Sword has taken in this lifetime is a little girl, looking lively and adorable.
After being hurt by Zhang Ancestor, she had long since locked her heart and sealed her love.
She stared blankly at the empty Spiritual World, muttering, "How does he know we are here?"
"Causality Dao, it’s said that if one can control causality, they can nearly know everything through the causal lines, killing enemies from afar. It seems to be true."
Long Yue’s face was flushed, gazing blankly at the sky.
When will she be able to see the view from the highest point?
The Cauldron Sword felt a little sad in its heart.
[Alas, if the Master were still alive, it would be great to introduce this Lu kid to the Master. With his protection, how could the Master have died.]
Lu Chenzhou watched as wisps of insignificant Dao Essence were transmitted through the causal lines from the Three Thousand Worlds into his internal world, being absorbed by him.
"The Causality Dao is too powerful," he marveled.
Curse killing from a distance is just one use; those generally with lower cultivation than him face nine deaths and one life.
Through causality, he can also check the status of friends and enemies related to him, and as long as their cultivation is not higher than his, he can find out.
If their cultivation isn’t significantly higher, he can even check them vaguely.
Of course, if they have special destinies, he cannot investigate them.
For example, the Dragon King is a mass of mist, invisible.
He can have conversations from afar, manifest in the Spiritual World of others; all this can be done.
Even when someone thinks of his name or remembers him, he can sense it, including detecting hostility.
Using this method, he successfully killed many spies in the Tianxia Civilization.
Those curse-killed from afar by causality, their Soul Dao Essence can still be remotely transported to the Martial Arts Tree.
Even the tiniest amount is still meat; accumulating bit by bit can enhance the speed of Dao Understanding.
In short, against those of lower realms, the Causality Dao is almost omniscient, a bug-level ability.
Of course, his Causality Dao cannot currently enter the Great Wilderness because the Great Wilderness still has some remnants of sealing unique terrains.
Moreover, the time flow in the Great Wilderness is different from that of the Three Thousand Worlds, which can also render causality ineffective.
But as long as it’s within the Three Thousand Worlds, he is like a divine being, omniscient and omnipotent.
He has termed this series of abilities [Red Dust Like Net], which belongs to top-level Great Divine Power.
"This shows the terrifying power of Lord Toad... Once it is enthroned as a god, it can curse-kill Tianxia’s strong from afar without descending."
Lu Chenzhou felt a sense of urgency inside.
He looked at the Martial Arts Tree, which already had two Ninth Rank Daos: Chaos and Causality.
However, Chaos is still some distance from the Ninth Rank Middle Stage.
Time flies, three years later.
On the Great Dao, the Holy Lord is refining the Dao Palace.
Suddenly, the Dao Palace trembled; he looked down, and beams of light shot up, flying towards him.
"A mantis trying to stop a chariot! A pile of junk, trying to stop a god."
The large snake raised its head high, tongue flickering, gray mist pervading the universe, transforming into countless poisonous creatures.
Ancient Divine Artifact Spirits, emitting mysterious syllables, encircled the Holy Lord.
Boom, boom, boom! Three towering Immortal of Colossal Spirit manifested, wielding Yin Yang Five Elements, Wind, Thunder, Frost, and Lightning.
"Immortal of Colossal Spirit... It feels like returning to that era."
In the Great Wilderness, Mr. Turtle gazed into the infinite heights, his face full of emotion.
By combining various Divine Artifacts, forming the Immortal of Colossal Spirit Great Array, it is a major weapon of the Divine Court against the stars, capable of battling a Great God.
However, these fragmented artifacts cannot even exert one-tenth of the real Immortal of Colossal Spirit’s power.
But they can hold the Holy Lord for a period of time, giving the junior brother and the Dragon King sufficient time to develop, which should not be a problem.
In the Divine Kingdom, the thoughts of the gods gathered. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ noⅴelfire.net
"The Divine Court’s backup plan is preventing the Holy Lord from refining the Dao Palace," said the Blood God.
"I suggest we uplift me to godhood first this time; you’ve seen the power of the Causality Dao. That Lu Chenzhou, by mastering causality, can curse-kill the demon saints of the Three Thousand Worlds from afar, causing us heavy losses. Many of our pieces have been unearthed by him," said Lord Toad.
The recent disturbances had already been sensed by it.
As the master of the Causality Dao, it could sense that Lu Chenzhou had mastered a branch of the Causality Dao.
If he continues to grow , he will inevitably conflict with its own great Dao.
It does not wish for its divine authority to be stolen by Lu Chenzhou.
"No one is uplifted." The Witch Master no longer wanted to do anything.
In the current situation, the more you do, the more mistakes you make; it is better to quietly observe changes, recuperate, and wait for the ultimate battle.
It had a strong premonition that it would face Lu Chenzhou personally.
This battle is unavoidable.
It intends to use Lu Chenzhou to complete its own path, ascending to the legendary Supreme Realm.
That is a realm beyond the divine, a power on the same level as the Great Cosmic Will.
Blue Mountain Buddha Country.
After a battle with the Demon Lord, the Buddha Country lay in ruins.
Blue Mountain sat cross-legged under the ancient temple, his form becoming more and more illusory.
Red Leaf quietly waited on the side.
On this day, a white-robed figure gently descended.
"Daoist Blue Mountain, are you ready for reincarnation?"
