Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” - Chapter 455: The Supreme One’s Backup Plan
While Su Yuan was conducting transactions.
The Lord of the Nine Void, however, revealed a strange expression. He looked at Su Yuan’s intelligence regarding the Chaos Dominator, his face becoming peculiar.
“To think someone could break through the established cognition under the Dominator’s settings, truly miraculous!”
The Lord of the Nine Void chuckled softly within his absolute domain.
“It seems the task arranged by the Dominator, I finally have a chance to complete it!”
The Lord of the Nine Void looked expectantly towards the space beyond Chaos.
He was actually the Chaos manager arranged by the Chaos Dominator back then. Among the many tasks left by the Dominator, he had only just discovered this one now!
“Since that’s the case, I should be able to contact the Dominator now!”
He was excited. After so many years had passed, he finally had a chance to see the Dominator again.
Therefore, without hesitation, he pulled a Dao Lord he had secretly controlled into the Nine Void Land.
In this way, adding the three Dao Principles he himself controlled and the seven suppressed Dao Lords, the Nine Void Land met the requirement of ten Dao Principles!
The entire Nine Void Land trembled. Under the influence of some rule, the power of the ten Dao Principles began to converge within his body, allowing him to achieve a certain pseudo-Chaos Dominator realm!
His strength surged dramatically!
But the Lord of the Nine Void didn’t care about this phenomenon at all. He was anticipating the appearance of the Chaos Dominator!
This itself was a method to contact the Chaos Dominator!
He waited a full five breaths.
The originally expectant expression on the Lord of the Nine Void’s face turned to astonishment.
Another ten breaths passed.
His expression gradually darkened.
The Chaos Dominator did not appear!
His Dominator actually gave no response whatsoever.
Until one year later, he finally confirmed that the Dominator… was out of contact!
This was a situation he had considered before, one with extremely low probability, but he never expected it to actually occur.
To describe it in one sentence, the sky had fallen.
The Lord of the Nine Void regained his composure.
“Since that’s the case, then activate the extinction method left by the Dominator!”
The Lord of the Nine Void’s expression turned icy, a sharp killing intent gleaming in his eyes.
As the manager of Chaos and the loyal subordinate of the Dominator, he must protect the safety of Chaos, especially the sovereignty of Chaos. It must not be lost. A new Chaos Dominator must not appear to seize the master’s sovereignty.
As long as Chaos exists, the Dominator would not truly encounter irreversible calamity. One day, he would be able to see the Dominator again!
“Seven Stars Dao Sovereign’s breakthrough is too fast! Otherwise, I wouldn’t need to act so urgently!”
His gaze drifted towards the direction of the Seven Stars Realm Sea. Su Yuan’s realm advancement was truly unbelievable. To break through to the fourth-tier Dao Lord level already, reaching the twelfth tier in the future didn’t seem impossible either. It genuinely worried him.
“Hah, you think an absolute domain can keep you safe? How will you deal with the absolute domain left by the Chaos Dominator then?”
The Lord of the Nine Void chuckled lightly. The next moment, he activated the method left by the Chaos Dominator.
At that very instant.
From the origin of Chaos, an incredibly astonishing Chaos absolute domain instantly covered the entirety of Chaos!
Su Yuan sensed a trace of abnormality but had no time to react!
He saw his own body being forcibly stripped out from the Nine Stars Land.
All his Avatars, projections, and thoughts left in various parts of Chaos—everything representing Su Yuan’s consciousness—were skillfully yet forcefully stripped away by some power!
When he condensed his consciousness again, he found all his bodies had merged into one, containing vast Dao Principle power within. But he discovered he was already in another dimension separate from Chaos!
He could perceive the Nine Stars Land, even manipulate it, but his original body could no longer descend upon it. He could only control it through projected Avatars, and the power contained within the projections could at most reach the Great Emperor level.
The existence of the projections themselves was based on his body’s origin in this current dimension. If the origin of his body in this dimension dissipated, then the projections would naturally become rootless duckweed, unable to exist.
It was as if he had been isolated from the real world, arriving in a brand new dimension!
“What is this place…?”
Su Yuan looked around. A piece of information fell into his consciousness out of thin air.
This place was called the Dao Realm!
Living beings who have reached the Dao Lord level or above can only continue their cultivation within the Dao Realm and may not interfere with the development within Chaos.
“What on earth is going on?” Su Yuan was utterly astonished in his heart.
At this moment.
The Lord of the Nine Nether was both shocked and furious!
He saw that the six originally suppressed Dao Lords by his side had now regained their freedom!
The six Dao Lords, the moment they gained freedom, instantly fled hundreds of millions of miles away, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Most crucially, before leaving, they conveniently looted a portion of the Lord of the Nine Nether’s treasures.
What had just happened was too sudden. His first reaction wasn’t to focus his attention on the treasury.
And the Dao Lords and the treasury were detained together.
This led to an awkward situation. When he was forcibly expelled to the Dao Realm, his treasury was also relocated, but it was still some distance away from him.
Thus, just this slight delay caused such a serious incident.
“You just wait! Daring to snatch this Sovereign’s treasures, you won’t get away with this!”
The Lord of the Nine Nether collected his remaining treasures and chased in the direction of one of them, but immediately sensed the suppression force of this Dao Realm!
A terrifying suppression force, countless times stronger than the Great Dao’s Will of the Chaos Continent, immediately pressed down his body as it rose to a certain height.
Netherdark looked up and could sense that above existed a terrifying Chaos network, composed of all the Dao Principles in Chaos. The will pressure it formed made even him feel fear.
Such a method was simply impossible for any Dao Lord to accomplish. This was personally arranged by the Chaos Dominator!
“Chaos Dominator? Why suddenly disturb this one? What does he want to do? If you want to kill or punish, be direct. What’s the meaning of pulling me into the Dao Realm?”
These words, Netherdark only said in his heart, not out loud.
He took a deep breath and examined his current situation.
He found that the empowerment from the Nine Nether Realm had vanished. He was now just a third-tier Dao Lord, no longer having the Nine Nether Realm as his backing.
He even perceived that the Nine Nether Realm had become part of Chaos, transformed into a special dimensional world within Chaos. Living beings could now find ways to enter it, explore, occupy territory, and so on. Seeing this scene made his eyelids twitch.
Suddenly, Netherdark discovered something strange with surprise. Within the Dao Realm, he opened Seven Stars Dao Sovereign’s Transaction Platform!
“Eh, why can this Transaction Platform still be used? Logically, that Seven Stars Dao Sovereign was also pulled out of the Nine Stars Land!”
Actually, this Transaction Platform was built upon several Dao Principles, not within the Nine Stars Land. Those Dao Principles also existed within the Dao Realm. Without being actively restricted by the Dominator, it naturally could continue to be used.
Of course, building new ones now was impossible. With that Dao Realm Heavenly Dao monitoring from above, wanting to build one would require its permission, but clearly the Dao Realm Heavenly Dao would not allow it.
