Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” - Chapter 483: The Disciple's Secret
Miluo Heavenly Palace.
Three figures hurriedly arrived.
“Soul-Constraining requests an audience with the Miluo Dao Lord!”
“Ji Ning requests an audience with the Miluo Dao Lord!”
“Niro requests an audience with the Miluo Dao Lord!”
“Enter!”
The Miluo Dao Lord said calmly.
The three figures stepped into the great hall.
One by one, the three of them bowed to the Miluo Dao Lord.
Afterwards, Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable was the first to speak. “Dao Lord, we have heard that you have granted the newly joined Seven Stars Dao Court eighteen cultivation quotas for promotion to Dao Venerable!”
“That is indeed the case,” the Miluo Dao Lord said, her beautiful eyes resting calmly on Soul-Constraining. “Do you have an objection?”
Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable instantly felt a deathly gaze upon him.
The terrifying pressure of a seventeenth-order Dao Venerable made Soul-Constraining, an eleventh-order Dao Venerable, feel immense strain.
“Please calm your anger, Dao Lord. I simply do not understand. The Seven Stars Dao Venerable has just joined the Dao Court and should have yet to render any merit. Why is he able to receive such a massive tilt of resources? Even if it’s a share for his disciples, four at most would be more than sufficient!”
Soul-Constraining spoke with gritted teeth.
Dao Venerable Ji Ning beside him also spoke up. “If too many favors are granted to Seven Stars, the other Dao Venerables may become discontent!”
Dao Venerable Niro also nodded. “Such preferential treatment is excessive. For the Seven Stars Dao Venerable himself, it may not necessarily be a good thing.”
The Miluo Dao Lord looked at the three of them calmly and said, “Seven Stars’ disciples have the potential to break through to Dao Venerable. Granting them promotion resources is a matter of course. If you also have juniors capable of breaking through to Dao Venerable, you may apply to me as well. If the success rate is above 30%, I can provide resources without limit.”
Upon hearing this, the three Dao Venerables—Soul-Constraining, Ji Ning, and Niro—were all shocked.
Dao Venerable Niro was especially astonished by the Miluo Dao Lord’s partiality. This didn’t seem like her usual style!
Dao Venerable Soul-Constraining immediately sensed something was wrong. He glanced at Ji Ning and the other, but still said, “Dao Lord, the probability of a Dao Venerable breakthrough is difficult to predict. Before the breakthrough, no one can say for sure what the actual success rate will be. Even if Seven Stars Dao Venerable’s disciples possess the bearing to achieve the Dao, the final outcome remains uncertain. If Seven Stars Dao Venerable makes grand claims but ultimately fails to meet the 30% standard, I’m afraid it would be rather hard to justify!”
The Miluo Dao Lord said placidly, “Then we shall wait and see.”
She did not mention Su Yuan’s previous information. The so-called independent space-time was still an unknown matter. Before its authenticity could be confirmed, there was naturally no need to reveal this reason.
In truth, the main reason the Miluo Dao Lord showed such favor to Su Yuan was primarily due to his lifespan.
She could see that the lifespan Su Yuan had experienced was extremely brief. To reach such a realm in such a short time was something only seen in the experiences of Chaos Dominators throughout history.
This was why she held Su Yuan in such high regard.
Soul-Constraining and the others naturally knew nothing of this. Hearing the Dao Lord’s concession, they had already made preparations in their hearts. Once the results came out, if they were unsatisfactory, they would have plenty to say.
Their goal, of course, was to obtain more benefits for themselves. If they could carve out a certain share from Su Yuan’s portion, that would be perfect.
Heavenly Dao Platform.
There were eighteen platforms in total!
Zhou Hao, Lin Feng, Ye Fan, Xuan Huang; Huang Gu, Duan Gu, Wuzhong, Voidless; Su Li, Su Si, Su Yuan (Abyss), Su Qian; Song Cai (old steward), Gu Qingzhu (old sect leader), Nangong Xianweng (old elder), Lan Si (old valley master), Yin Xing (the first Golden Immortal elder to join), Star Dust Daoist (the first Hunyuan elder).
A total of eighteen cultivators simultaneously entered the Heavenly Dao Platforms.
Eighteen beams of light rose simultaneously, forming a layer of opaque light shields that isolated the inside from the outside!
From the outside, one could only see blurry figures suspended within.
Around the periphery of the Heavenly Dao Platform, a large number of Dao Court cultivators had gathered.
They communicated with each other through voice transmissions, discussing fervently.
“The Heavenly Dao Platform… it’s actually been opened all at once! This is a rare sight!”
“I heard these eighteen people are all disciples or subordinates of the newly joined Dao Venerable. They get to use the Heavenly Dao Platform right after joining?”
“Shh, how can we question such matters? The higher-ups surely have their reasons!”
“I wonder if any of them, one or two perhaps, can actually become Dao Venerables?”
Everyone was very curious about this.
From the success rate of these people’s breakthroughs, they would be able to gauge a part of the quality of the newly joined Seven Stars Dao Venerable!
The higher the success rate, the stronger the Dao Venerable’s teaching ability, and generally, the stronger his own strength would be as well!
This was a natural conclusion!
Therefore, they were very curious about how many of them would actually succeed in breaking through.
Sitting atop the Heavenly Dao Platform, Zhou Hao instantly felt the bottleneck that had been holding him back melt away like ice and snow!
“Huh? It seems the restriction has vanished!”
Zhou Hao’s eyes lit up. He couldn’t help but look into the depths of his consciousness.
There, he saw a black pearl, divided perfectly into twelve equal segments!
On three of these segments, the markings were almost completely lit up!
“Divine Beast Pearl! It’s time to show your true power!”
Zhou Hao was extremely excited in his heart. This was his companion treasure, the Divine Beast Pearl. Each segment contained a Divine Beast Dao Principle, making comprehension extremely easy!
Zhou Hao opened his eyes, glanced at the ball of Chaos Flame in his left hand, then at the Dao Yan Crystal in his right, and finally at the cultivation guidance from a Chaos Dominator floating before him, with all sorts of treasure resources piled like mountains around him.
Everything was ready!
“Originally, I only planned to master three Dao Principles and be done with it! But now it seems, with such excellent conditions, comprehending three more in one go might not be difficult either!”
A surge of boundless ambition rose in Zhou Hao’s heart. He immediately immersed himself in comprehending the other three Divine Beast Dao Principles! He needed to master six Dao Principles in one breath, then, utilizing the characteristics of the Divine Beast Pearl, preliminarily complete the fusion of Dao Principles!
Zhou Hao, who possessed a great secret, had hopes of breaking through to the Chaos Dominator level!
On another side.
Lin Feng was also breaking through.
His eyes were filled with the intent of slaughter!
Before coming to this Chaos, Lin Feng had already slaughtered countless lives from the allied armies. The Kill Count he had accumulated reached an unimaginable magnitude. He had never used it, waiting precisely for this moment to arrive!
Chaos Flame in his left hand, Dao Source Crystal in his right, all sorts of treasures were complete. He had even obtained the inherited path of a Slaughter Dao Venerable.
Slaughter Dao Principle, Sword Dao Principle, Wind Dao Principle, Thunder Dao Principle, Extremity Dao Principle, Abyssal Dao Principle, Light Dao Principle, Darkness Dao Principle!
Eight Dao Principles could all be fused. If he could find a perfect ninth Dao Principle piece to complete the puzzle, there was also hope of breaking through to the Chaos Dominator level.
“Since that’s the case, this time, I’ll directly master eight Dao Principles first! Then I’ll slowly fuse them and search for the ninth!”
Lin Feng’s ambition was not small either. He hoped to rely on the assistance of the Heavenly Dao Platform to smoothly master eight Dao Principles, achieving it all in one step. The fusion could come later, taken slowly!
With a sea of Kill Count, Lin Feng had this confidence!
