Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” - Chapter 447: Returning to the Primordial Chaos!
Beneath Su Yuan’s feet, another Other Shore Ark condensed once more.
Then, Su Yuan, piloting the Other Shore Ark, stepped into “Nothingness”.
Looking back, the vast Seven Stars Chaos was only the size of a fruit, truly astonishing.
Moreover, if he did not possess the Status of Chaos Continent Lord, he actually wouldn’t be able to see the Seven Stars Chaos at all.
After Su Yuan piloted the Other Shore Ark for a mere two steps, he abruptly vanished into the Nine Stars Land!
Only when Su Yuan’s true body successfully reconnected with the Avatar he had left behind did he realize that barely any time had passed—perhaps not even an instant!
He could clearly sense everything within the Seven Stars Chaos, even manipulate it all. And right after he re-established the connection with his Avatar, the flow of time between the two Chaos realms synchronized.
With a thought from Su Yuan, the time flow within the Seven Stars Chaos accelerated over ten thousand times compared to the Primordial Chaos.
Originally, Su Yuan thought this wouldn’t consume any resources, but suddenly, he discovered his Dao Source was actually beginning to deplete!
Su Yuan was taken aback: “Accelerating the growth of a Chaos actually consumes Dao Source?”
Put another way, Dao Source could actually be used to speed up a Chaos’s growth. It truly lived up to its name as Dao Source!
This ability of the True Name Dao Principle to obtain Dao Source was unexpectedly monstrous.
The entire Primordial Chaos continued to operate according to its established rules.
Su Yuan did not suffer any sudden attacks from powerful beings.
“Hah, I’m only a Fourth Stage Dao Lord right now, probably not enough to attract the attention of the Primordial Chaos’s Dominator,” Su Yuan pondered. “My main goals in the Primordial Chaos now are to obtain Dao Source, acquire Dao Artifacts, nurture Dao Lords, and finally, to uncover the secrets of the Chaos Dominator.”
At this moment, Su Yuan already had a way out. His true body had already transferred to the Seven Stars Chaos. No matter how recklessly he acted within the Primordial Chaos, he couldn’t die!
The Primordial Chaos and the Seven Stars Chaos appeared adjacent, but within “Nothingness,” space did not exist. The two were absolutely non-intersecting, guaranteeing safety.
“If the Lord of the Nine Nether and the others truly reach the level of ten Dao Principles, what exactly would happen?” Su Yuan was very curious.
[Ding, Fame Points +1,000,000]
Before Su Yuan, a massive stream of Dao Source Fame Points notifications continued to be generated.
They came from the Four Great Dao Venerables and the Dao Lords under their command, and from Lin Feng.
These were already meals on the plate, just waiting to be consumed.
Meanwhile, Su Yuan set his sights once more on those hidden Dao Lords!
With a thought.
Su Yuan condensed an incarnation, instantly traversing an endless distance to arrive outside an utterly ordinary island in the Chaos.
He knew that within this place, there must be an Absolute Domain hidden, with a Dao Lord concealed inside!
Su Yuan cupped his hands in a salute and said, “This humble Daoist, Seven Stars, happened to pass by this place and sensed a fellow Daoist residing here in seclusion. I have specially stopped to request an audience!”
On the island, scattered rocks lay about, appearing desolate and uninhabited, not at all like a place where a Dao Lord might live in seclusion!
Yet Su Yuan continued to cup his hands, smiling slightly. “This humble Daoist is not of the ilk of the Lord of the Nine Nether or Jiuqing, and disdains suppressing Dao Lords to reach the so-called Chaos Dominator level. Therefore, fellow Daoist, please do not be overly cautious. This humble Daoist enjoys trading with others. Might fellow Daoist have any idle treasures for trade? I can use Dao Source for the exchange. To show sincerity, I specially offer ten thousand units of Dao Source as a greeting gift!”
Su Yuan materialized ten thousand points of Dao Source Fame Points into ten thousand crystals, then tossed them onto the island!
“In seven days, this humble Daoist will visit again!”
After saying this, Su Yuan vanished.
The ten thousand Dao Source crystals tossed onto the island rapidly disappeared.
Within an Absolute Domain.
A man with Dao Lord cultivation was toying with the Dao Source in his hand.
“So this is Dao Source?”
Clearly, this man already knew of Dao Source’s existence!
“To think I was discovered despite hiding so well. What does this Seven Stars Dao Sovereign mean by this?”
Once the Dao Source entered the Absolute Domain, he felt his own craving!
Not a psychological craving, but his own essence’s craving for Dao Source.
When he tried absorbing a single point of Dao Source, he felt his mastery over his second Dao Principle increase by an imperceptible sliver!
This sliver wasn’t much, practically negligible, but he hadn’t improved his realm by even a shred in three hundred Kalpas!
This tiny improvement was like breaking a shackle, letting him see hope of breaking through to Dao Venerable!
The moment the bottleneck was broken, he continued comprehending the Dao Principle. Under accelerated time, he advanced significantly again, equivalent to a hundred times the improvement from that single point of Dao Source, before falling into another bottleneck.
So, he used another point of Dao Source without hesitation.
And so, before long, the ten thousand points of Dao Source were completely consumed. His mastery over his second Dao Principle had increased by a small notch.
“Dao Source! It’s truly a good thing. If I had ten trillion Dao Source, I could directly master the second Dao Principle! Even just three trillion Dao Source would allow me to slowly master it! Good stuff!”
At this moment, he was utterly and completely tempted by the trade Su Yuan had mentioned.
By now, seven days had passed in the outside world.
Su Yuan’s figure appeared as promised!
Su Yuan cupped his hands towards the island. “Fellow Daoist, may this humble Daoist come ashore for a chat?”
“Seven Stars Dao Sovereign honors us with your presence, please enter!”
On the island, a heaven-shaking, earth-overturning transformation suddenly occurred. It turned into a majestic and imposing immortal mountain blessed land, with pavilions, towers, and terraces dotting the landscape. Immortal Beasts and spirit birds soared amidst coiling clouds and mist, mysterious and elegant.
Thousands of spirit birds fluttered their wings, forming a feathery path composed of multicolored plumage, leading straight to Su Yuan.
At the path’s end, a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament saluted Su Yuan. “Esteemed guest, please enter the island for a chat!”
Su Yuan stepped onto the multicolored feather path, and his figure automatically entered the island.
Along the way, he felt himself stepping into a strange Absolute Domain. This was a world opened by the other party’s Dao Principle, their absolute home ground.
However, the scope of this Absolute Domain was somewhat small. If the Nine Stars Land were to clash and consume it, the other party wouldn’t be able to hold out.
“Seven Stars pays his respects. May I ask how fellow Daoist is addressed?” Su Yuan said with a smile.
“I am Jiemeng, master of the Wish Dao Principle,” the middle-aged man introduced himself.
“So it’s Dao Lord Jiemeng!” Su Yuan praised. “The Wish Dao Principle, this is a powerful Dao Principle, not inferior to Time or Space! Fellow Daoist’s ability is truly astounding!”
Su Yuan hadn’t expected that a Dao Lord hidden in a remote corner would actually control the Wish Dao Principle!
The power of wishes was a major path of cultivation. There were once cultivators who proved the Dao through wishes, first making a vow to attain the Hunyuan realm, then fulfilling that vow. This was one manifestation of the Wish Dao Principle’s power! It had a feeling of reversing cause and effect!
Similarly, faith-based cultivation was also a derivative cultivation path of the Wish Dao Principle, one of the ultimate goals of Deity cultivation!
This Dao Principle paired very well with the True Name Dao Principle and the Causality Dao Principle! It could even connect with Reincarnation and Star Dust.
To be honest, Su Yuan had taken a fancy to it!
