"The last holy land, and also the undisputed first holy land of our Tianxu Palace—the Ancient Holy Realm."
Daoist Qianfeng led Xia Mangqing to an ellipsoidal world that appeared to be only a hundred billion miles in diameter from the outside: "This Ancient Sacred Realm was obtained by the Palace Master from the Yu Xing Sea. It is rumored to be related to a powerful being from ancient times. It is a world of boundless potential and the strongest foundation of our Tianxu Palace."
"Originated from Yu Xinghai, and related to ancient times?"
Xia Mangqing's eyes flickered. If that were the case, it was highly likely to be related to the ancient war.
The so-called ancient war actually refers to the war between the cultivator civilization and the Sith race. Countless chaotic eras have passed since that war, and very few beings have actually experienced it.
Deep within the Star Sea lies a battlefield from the ancient war era, where countless rulers and lords of other universes participated. If this Ancient Sacred Realm is related to those powerful beings and has been preserved so completely, it is highly likely to be connected to the rulers and lords of other universes.
"The Ancient Sacred Realm is extremely vast, comparable to a territory. Disciples have obtained eternal divine weapons, imperial inheritances, divine fruits and elixirs, and so on from it. Moreover, a sacred fruit is born within the Ancient Sacred Realm, which can permanently increase the comprehension of living beings after consumption."
"Such a strange object exists?"
Xia Mangqing was quite surprised. There were many divine fruits and strange objects that could temporarily enhance one's comprehension, but permanent enhancement was extremely rare.
"Yes, however, the Ancient Sacred Fruit is only effective for beings below the Eternal Emperor level, and each being can only consume one at most."
O
"How was the result?" Xia Mangqing asked.
"The effects vary depending on the creature, and it can increase comprehension by about 10% to 60%," Daoist Qianfeng explained. The reason it only increases 10% to 60% is because the creatures that can obtain the Ancient Saint Fruit have, if not monstrous, at least top-tier talent and comprehension.
Ordinary Dao Lords and World Realm cultivators are not qualified to receive it.
Of course, this effect is already incredibly powerful. If it were given to those peak Dao Lords, it would greatly increase their chances of successfully merging with the Dao. Even Xia Mangqing was somewhat envious at this moment.
He knew of many treasures that could help one achieve enlightenment, such as the Separation and Union Stone Mansion Incense Burner and the Supreme Stone Platform, which could allow living beings to reach a state of sudden enlightenment and greatly increase their cultivation speed.
And each of these sacred fruits, which can permanently enhance one's comprehension, can drive countless Dao Lords mad.
"Senior brother, how can we obtain this ancient sacred fruit?"
Xia Mangqing asked, his comprehension was already very strong, if he could obtain an ancient saint fruit, even if it only increased his comprehension by 10%, his talent would undergo a transformation.
"Junior brother wants that too?"
Daoist Qianfeng smiled faintly: "However, the normal method won't work for the time being. The sacred tree that nurtures the ancient sacred fruit ripens once every 36,000 Chaos Eras, and each time 36 ancient sacred fruits can be harvested. There are still more than 20,000 Chaos Eras before the next ancient sacred fruit ripens."
"More than 20,000 Chaos Eras?!"
Xia Mangqing was taken aback. In such a long period of time, he might have obtained even more amazing fortune.
"Haha—Junior brother, you don't need to worry. The emperors of my Heavenly Ruins Palace should all have some of these ancient sacred fruits left over. You are the Palace Master's personal disciple, so the Palace Master will definitely give you one."
Seeing Xia Mangqing's expression, Daoist Qianfeng burst into laughter.
These words relieved Xia Mangqing. As long as he had some in stock, he would exchange it for one even if it required using treasures.
"Thank you for informing me, senior brother."
"You're welcome."
Daoist Qianfeng smiled.
Afterwards, Xia Mangqing first returned to the Ancient Scripture Pavilion and selected a Time-Space Dao inheritance from it. This inheritance originated from a top-tier emperor. In the Time-Space Dao, the strongest in the endless territory was none other than the Mangya Ruler. However, he was not the only one who walked the Time-Space Dao. There were also extremely eternal emperors who successfully merged with the Dao through this path.
One of them belongs to Tianxu Palace.
After receiving the secret techniques passed down by this emperor, Xia Mangqing went to the Star Sea.
By unleashing one's own Dao within the Star Sea, one can resonate with this star sea and thus condense the Great Dao Stars.
Xia Mangqing stood within it, and with a thought, an illusion array suddenly enveloped him.
Rumble—
Almost instantly, the starry sea trembled, and stars shone brightly. Many beings cultivating within the starry sea were shocked and all looked towards the direction where Xia Mangqing was.
"Another senior brother has broken through?"
"Who is it, Senior Brother Mo Yun, or Senior Sister Li Guang?"
"Huh—who's that? I don't recognize him."
"He's wearing a personal-inherited black robe; could he be a prodigy disciple recently taken in by some emperor?"
Many worlds were discussing that someone had created a new path, which was a major event, meaning that another Dao Lord of Life and Death would appear in the Heavenly Ruins Palace. Moreover, they had high standards and could see that the path created by Xia Mangqing was extraordinary and extremely powerful.
"His mental and magical powers are perfectly integrated. He has only cultivated for less than a hundred million years, yet he has created such a method. No wonder he was accepted as a personal disciple by the Palace Master." In a palace, Emperor Siheng looked through the void and saw the scene in the Dao Star Sea.
"Tsk tsk, truly amazing. Although the level of the Dao is somewhat inferior, with such a method, its power is no less than the strongest Dao. It is indeed stunning." Emperor Huangwu also praised.
Within the Star Sea, as Xia Mangqing cast the illusion array, amidst the resonance of the starry river, a dazzling star leaped out from the void, nearly ten thousand miles in diameter, its radiance spreading and illuminating a vast area of the void.
"Nearly ten thousand miles?"
"A diameter of ten thousand miles is an extreme value from the very beginning of the Great Dao. This senior brother is truly remarkable."
"It seems that another monstrous talent is about to emerge among the direct disciples of our Tianxu Palace."
Many worlds were amazed. Then they saw Xia Mangqing take a step, and suddenly the void of that sea of stars was suppressed. That was the transformed Qilin Step, and its power was equally impressive.
Moreover, during this long period of seclusion, he also incorporated the method of combining two forces, making its power almost the strongest.
"A second path?!"
Many World Realm disciples were shocked, and even some Life and Death Dao Lords appeared. When they saw that Dao Lord Qianfeng was also there, they couldn't help but gather around to ask about the situation.
"That's the Palace Master's newly accepted personal disciple!"
With just one sentence, many Dao Lords of Life and Death realized that things were not ordinary, and they all looked towards the Star Sea of Dao.
At that moment, a second star also emerged, emitting a dark and profound light.
"The Dao of Void, and its power is so immense!"
These Dao Lords had extraordinary insight and quickly noticed the clues. They made a judgment: that was a method of combining two forces, which was extremely precious. If it were a Dao Lord level, countless Dao Lords would probably fight over it.
Buzz—
Before anyone could calm down, Xia Mangqing changed his hand seal, and many phantom images of weapons appeared. Although they were phantom images, they still exuded astonishing power. In particular, the swords and sabers contained Dao charm that was no less than that of a strong Dao.
"The third way!"
"A method that perfectly blends divine power and mental strength!"
At this moment, even Emperor Siheng and Emperor Huangwu were somewhat amazed. Creating a perfect fusion method of mental power and magical power could perhaps be attributed to luck, but to create a perfect fusion method of mental power and divine power—that could only mean that Xia Mangqing had a very deep understanding of the method of combining the three powers.
"Perhaps he will become another Heart Sword Emperor in the future!"
Emperor Siheng sighed, "Emperor Xinjian is a legendary figure among the many emperors of the endless territories."
In terms of his understanding of swordsmanship, it is comparable to that of Emperor Huangwu in understanding of the way of the knife, but he has gone against the heavens and earth by integrating the method of combining the three forces into his own secret sword technique.
With such heaven-defying abilities, he even possessed terrifying combat power that was infinitely close to that of the three great rulers. Even the lords of holy cities such as the Heavenly Ruins Emperor were no match for the Heart Sword Emperor.
"No, he will surpass the Heart Sword Emperor!"
Emperor Huangwu stared wide-eyed at the void.
At this moment, Xia Mangqing unleashed the fourth secret technique, Void Creation and Annihilation, which is the manifestation of the strongest path!
"The strongest path!?"
"He actually figured out when that happened?"
Emperor Siheng was startled. Even Emperor Tianxu probably didn't know about this matter; otherwise, he would have told them when they contacted each other earlier.
"A peerless genius!"
"He will undoubtedly become one of the most dazzling Dao Lords in the endless realms!"
Emperor Siheng exclaimed in surprise, while Emperor Huangwu laughed loudly: "Old man, do you think Qingxuan can surpass Lixing in the future?"
"The Palace Master of Lixing Palace in Mangya Kingdom?"
Emperor Siheng paused slightly. Of course, he knew about Emperor Huangwu and Palace Master Lixing. He had witnessed Emperor Huangwu's defeat firsthand. Although Emperor Huangwu had readily admitted it, Emperor Siheng knew that he had always harbored regrets.
"Palace Master Li Xing is a heaven-defying Dao Lord who has perfectly fused the three strongest Daos. Even if Qing Xuan creates the Three Powers Unity Method now, he can only be said to be close to him."
"But—Qingxuan's comprehension is too monstrous, and the speed of his improvement is unprecedented in my long years. It is inevitable that he will embark on the path of fusion with the strongest, and in the future he should be able to rival Palace Master Lixing."
"As for whether they can win—even the three great rulers cannot presume to say who will win or lose against such heaven-defying Dao Lords. It's hard to say without a real battle."
The Emperor Siheng spoke very fairly and without bias.
Emperor Huangwu understood this principle as well, shook his head, and chuckled, "That's true, but it's really interesting. When the Palace Master built the Heavenly Ruins Realm, no one thought much of it, but unexpectedly, he actually found a peerless genius."
"Yes, perhaps this is fate."
Emperor Siheng smiled faintly: "In this era, our Tianxu Palace will not be content with being quiet. When we achieve the Great Dao of Azure Profound and truly show our prowess in the endless territory, it will surely be a spectacular event."
They dared not say whether Xia Mangqing could successfully merge with the Dao. No living being had absolute certainty about merging with the Dao, let alone a Heaven-defying Dao Lord who merged with the strongest Dao. Over the long years, there have only been three successful examples in the endless territory.
But what they are certain of is that Xia Mangqing, who shocked Tianxu Palace today, will inevitably become one of the most dazzling Dao Lords in the endless territory in the future, and will be able to compete with powerful figures such as Palace Master Li Xing.
At this moment, Xia Mangqing stood in the Star Sea, surrounded by four stars that shone with different brilliance and exuded different Dao charms. Those World Realm cultivators were already dumbfounded, and the Dao Lords of Death were equally shocked.
"This is the reward for condensing the Great Dao Stars?"
At that moment, four orbs of light appeared in the void.
This was Xia Mangqing's reward for condensing the Great Dao Star. Upon closer inspection, it consisted of three inherited treasures and a star-like fruit. With a mental probe, Xia Mangqing instantly understood the general situation.
The three heirlooms record the inheritances of three second-level Dao Lords of Life and Death, belonging to the Void, Formation, and Sword Dao respectively.
That fruit, named Star Dao Fruit, was not born from the Dao Star Sea, but was specially placed in the rewards by the Heavenly Ruins Emperor. It was extremely valuable and could be used to refine a heaven-defying pill at the Dao Lord level.
