Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws
1935 Returning to the Soul Restricted Area Again, One Person Memorizes While the Other Comprehends
The Dao contamination qi was left behind during the ancient Immortal times. It was suppressed in various locations by the great ones in the past through different techniques.
Within the Immortal World alone, there were two known locations where the Dao contamination qis were sealed. They were the Spiritual Mountain and Nether Abyss Blood Ocean.
The Underworld River Forefather had set up several seals in the past that separated the Blood Ocean and forced it to exist in the Immortal World’s spatial rift.
One of the entrances to the Blood Ocean was where the Dao contamination qi was found.
With that, Chu Kuangren visited the Blood Ocean and did the same thing. Soon, he absorbed all the Dao contamination qi contained in that location.
Lastly, he returned to the Imperial Palace, hoping to study and understand the Dao contamination qi further.
Inside the Imperial Palace, Chu Kuangren was sitting with his legs crossed while Daoist laws were swirling around him. Two black beads could be vaguely seen inside his body.
Sealed within the two beads were the Dao contamination qi.
After some comprehension, Chu Kuangren sensed a familiar energy from the Dao contamination qi… It was the Great Dao’s energy!
“This Dao contamination qi is a remnant of a deadly calamity brought upon by the Great Dao to recover its strength. I guess it makes sense that the Great Dao’s energy is contained within it and that the Dao contamination qi can erode a cultivator’s Dao.”
“Eroding the Dao of living beings and then absorbing their energy to recover? Damn, the Great Dao is ruthless.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
However, the Great Dao had no emotion after all. It was like a machine, doing what was necessary to ensure it could operate as usual.
In other words, the Great Dao and the living beings in the universe had a symbiotic relationship.
The Great Dao gave rise to the birth of all living beings.
Meanwhile, the power of living beings could also boost the Great Dao’s power to a certain extent. However, it must be done so while not exceeding the Great Dao’s control. Otherwise, it would attract the attention of the Great Dao to take action.
An example would be the Chaos Supreme Treasures.
If all living beings could coexist peacefully with the Great Dao, the latter could operate normally. However, if an anomaly were to occur, the Great Dao would send a great calamity as a purge.
“If I want to completely get rid of the Dao contamination qi, I must first focus on repairing the Great Dao. Otherwise, even if I manage to absorb all the Dao contamination qi out there, more will eventually be produced naturally,” Chu Kuangren thought.
That reminded him of the Daoist Progenitor. After all, he was a being from the previous ancient Immortal era and the forefather of Immortal Dao. Perhaps someone like him would have a way of dealing with that.
With that thought in mind, Chu Kuangren decided to visit him to learn more.
However, he wanted to clear out all of the Dao contamination qi in the Immortal World before leaving it. After all, there was no way of telling when those things would erupt.
After sealing the Dao contamination qi from two locations, Chu Kuangren felt that he was developing a unique sense of tracking it.
Besides, with his control over the Immortal World, he soon discovered three more locations where the Dao contamination qi was sealed.
Those locations were quite familiar to him.
One of them was located in the Soul Restricted Area!
‘Interesting.’
Chu Kuangren became a little more interested in the Soul Restricted Area. After all, Heavenly Sword Chu Kuangren’s Soul Realm was now one step away from reaching the Chaos Realm. Perhaps comprehending more things related to Soul Dao would help.
When it came to Soul Dao, the most skilled tribe in the Central Heaven Universe would be the Nether King Tribe, whereas for the Pan Gu Universe, it would be the Soul Restricted Area.
For his visit to the Soul Restricted Area this time, other than dealing with the Dao contamination qi, Chu Kuangren also hoped to comprehend the profoundness of Soul Dao if he could.
His mind was linked with Heavenly Sword Chu Kuangren.
Hence, whatever he comprehended would naturally be comprehended by his other self, and he could do whatever he wanted.
…
Outside the Soul Restricted Area, countless seals and restrictions surrounded that location, preventing anyone from entering. As one of the most dangerous places in Pan Gu Universe, even a Great Perfected Arch Gilded Immortal would never leave that place alive upon entering.
However, to someone like Chu Kuangren, coming here was like a walk in the park.
The surrounding restrictions were non-existent to him.
“Who’s there?!”
At that moment, one of the Arch Gilded Immortals from the Soul Restricted Area noticed Chu Kuangren’s presence. He immediately yelled and charged toward him.
His Arch Gilded aura swept forward, locking onto Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren merely shot him an indifferent glance. His gaze was so chilling that the Arch Gilded Immortal cultivator felt as if he had fallen into an icy abyss, and shivers were sent down his spine!
“It’s… It’s Chu Kuangren!”
The Arch Gilded Immortal looked confused.
‘What’s going on?’
‘Why is he here in the Soul Restricted Area? Now that I think about it, we do bear a grudge against Chu Kuangren. Is he here to wipe us all out?’
If that were the case, there was no way they could survive his attacks.
“You should address me as your Immortal King!” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
Then, his body trembled a little, and an incomparably powerful Immortal King aura erupted at full blast. The Immortal King aura immediately swept across the entire Soul Restricted Area.
Everyone inside quickly noticed it.
In an instant, all of the Restricted Area’s elites rushed out and looked at Chu Kuangren with uncertainty on their faces. A feeling of fear began to creep up within them.
They, too, were afraid that Chu Kuangren was here to create trouble.
“Immortal King, can you tell us why you’re here?” The Soul Restricted Area’s Blue Ocean Tribe Leader took a deep breath and asked.
“I need to study some soul-based cultivation techniques. That’s why I’ve come here to peruse your records. Is that alright?” Chu Kuangren asked.
However, the magnitude of his Immortal King aura was not reduced in the slightest.
Some of the soul cultivators on the ground could not help but shudder with fear in the presence of his power.
The Blue Ocean Tribe Leader sighed helplessly.
‘Is that alright? Who are you kidding?’
Chu Kuangren might be asking them. However, the choice was not theirs from the very start. They did not even have the power to reject him.
“Since it’s the Immortal King, we will do our best to cooperate.”
“Very well.”
Chu Kuangren was quite satisfied with their behavior.
“Is the Supreme Soul Overlord here?” Chu Kuangren asked as he suddenly remembered something.
“The Supreme Soul Overlord is currently at the Void Battlefield. Because she joined Buddha Lei Yin and the others against you in battle at the Immoral Hall previously, the Daoist Progenitor sent her to the Void Battlefield. I hope you have not forgotten that, honorable Immortal King,” the Blue Ocean Tribe Leader replied gently.
“Oh, you’re right. If it weren’t for you, I might have really forgotten about that,” Chu Kuangren replied.
The Soul Restricted Area cultivators’ mouths twitched. They even began to wonder whether Chu Kuangren had intentionally said that to mess with them.
“Even an esteemed individual like the Immortal King can be forgetful sometimes.”
After that, Chu Kuangren arrived at the Soul Restricted Area’s library archives and began comprehending the thousands of cultivation techniques recorded there.
With his level of comprehension, learning those cultivation techniques was second nature to him. Besides, he did not even need to master them.
He only needed to remember them.
As for mastering those techniques, he only needed to leave it to Heavenly Sword Chu Kuangren.
Several years soon passed.
Within that time, he had almost read through the millions of books stored in the Soul Restricted Area’s library archives. The scale of what he accomplished was simply astonishing.
Far away in the Central Heaven Universe, Heavenly Sword Chu Kuangren rubbed his brows. “Sheesh, this guy only memorizes whatever he reads. Does he know I have to be the one to comprehend and master all of them?”
Fortunately, he had the Heaven Soul, Hell Soul, and Lil Ai, the wonderful helper with him. Otherwise, he would have a headache by now.
Having said that, he still spent quite some effort doing all that.
However, the results he obtained were great too.
Before this, the Soul Chaos Realm was only a vague concept to him, but he now had a clearer picture of it in his mind.
He already had an idea of how to progress his cultivation further.
Besides, he could also enter the Chaos of the universe at will, so he had eighty to ninety percent confidence in achieving the Soul Chaos Realm within the next thousand years.
If he had more help, that process would take less time.
On top of that, he had learned many cultivation techniques from the Soul Restricted Area.
Among them, there were powerful offensive techniques on par with the Violet Soul Bell, which greatly made up for his shortcoming of possessing powerful soul energy but not having any offensive technique to use it with. That gave him another trump card to use in battle in the future.
