Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” - Chapter 503: The Entry of Various Forces
The news quickly reached Su Yuan.
Su Yuan naturally instructed everyone to be cautious and take protective measures.
The cultivators of the Miluo Dao Court immediately changed their aggressive expansion methods and became careful and vigilant.
Outside the Nine Stars Land.
The Miluo Dao Court’s large-scale entry into the Nine Stars Land was still detected by other forces.
The Miluo Dao Court did not have any internal leaks or spies revealing secrets.
Other forces were able to discover the Miluo Dao Court’s unusual movements simply through various profound Dao Principles, thereby uncovering the abnormal situation.
The Blood Moon Dao Court, being the closest to the Miluo Dao Court, was the first to discover the anomaly.
The Blood Moon Dao Lord was proficient in the Dao Principle of Prophecy. Under the mobilization of a large number of cultivators and Dao Venerables from the Miluo Dao Court, his Prophecy Dao Principle became exceptionally clear.
He soon received the latest prophecy, and it was an extremely detailed one.
[The Miluo Dao Court has discovered a brand new independent space-time and is currently conducting an occupation operation. This space-time is named the Nine Stars Land and has a total of nine entrances. One of the entrances is located at…]
“So that’s what the ‘Nine Stars Calamity’ referred to!”
The Blood Moon Dao Lord suddenly understood.
His previous prophecy had been vague and confusing, leaving him puzzled for a long time. Now, with this precise prophecy, he finally understood what the previous prophecy was about.
This prophecy did not explicitly state whether it was dangerous or not. However, combined with the word “calamity” from the previous prophecy, one could guess that this independent space-time was not safe.
“There aren’t many independent space-times within Chaos. Currently, twenty-seven are known. My Court has established outposts in sixteen of these independent space-times. For the other space-times, we missed the opportunity and had no chance to get involved. Now that this brand new independent space-time has emerged, and my Court has gained the initiative, we should give it a try.”
The Blood Moon Dao Lord was not disturbed by the word “calamity.” As the saying goes, misfortune lies where fortune depends; fortune and misfortune are inherently intertwined.
He immediately gave the order to summon the Dao Venerable Elders.
Soon, over a hundred powerful Dao Venerables appeared in the great hall.
The Blood Moon Dao Lord stated bluntly, “This Sovereign has prophesied a new independent space-time. Currently, the Miluo Dao Court has already taken the lead by sending people to enter. We will be the second batch to enter. Who among you is willing to go and explore? The dangers of this exploration are unknown. Be mentally prepared!”
A Dao Venerable’s eyes lit up. “A new independent space-time? That sounds like a good place to seek battle! I am willing to go!”
“I am also willing to go!”
Soon, thirty people submitted their applications.
“Very good. You will lead your respective cultivators to go and explore first. This Sovereign will remain in the Dao Court, awaiting your good news!” the Blood Moon Dao Lord said calmly.
The thirty Dao Venerables immediately took action, gathered their disciples, and rushed to one of the entrances prophesied by the Blood Moon Dao Lord, breaking into the Nine Stars Land.
After the Blood Moon Dao Court took action.
The chain reaction caused by the actions of the two Dao Courts grew even larger. Those proficient in deduction immediately deduced more details.
Soon, third and fourth parties detected the news and quickly headed towards the Nine Stars Land.
Only a hundred years had passed.
The city Su Yuan materialized from the void was successfully constructed.
The city was nine trillion light-years long and five trillion light-years wide.
Inside, it was divided into ninety-nine layers of city gates, demarcating one hundred layers of concentric ring-shaped zones. Furthermore, the further inward the zone, the taller the buildings, with the highest point reaching nine hundred billion light-years.
The city contained countless array foundations that connected with the starry sky, linking to the territories of the surrounding seven Chaos Kingdoms, forming a super-large array. This essentially marked the complete occupation of this entire region.
At the border, one hundred layers of superimposed city walls were formed, sufficient to block the vast majority of crises.
These city walls were all condensed by relying on the power of the grand array, with their foundation being the city Su Yuan constructed.
As long as the city remained standing, the city walls could be generated infinitely.
And to break the city, one must first break through the city walls.
This formed an unbreakable, rock-solid defense system.
If other forces arrived a step later, trying to break this defense would be extremely difficult, leaving them with no chance of occupation.
This was the largest territory the Miluo Dao Court had ever occupied within an independent space-time, covering an area as vast as seven Chaos Kingdoms. It was truly immense.
Originally, they could have occupied even more. Unfortunately, other forces had already entered the scene.
Su Yuan arrived atop the border city wall. In the distance, he could see a similarly massive, blood-red wall spanning the stars.
The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable appeared beside Su Yuan and said, “That’s the grand array of the Blood Moon Dao Court. They’ve occupied the territory of three Chaos Kingdoms. They’ve also made a huge gain!”
Su Yuan nodded, then looked in another direction.
The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable casually introduced, “To our south is the territory occupied by the True Knowledge Dao Court. They were the third to enter and have occupied a total of two Chaos Kingdoms’ worth of territory.”
“The territory we currently occupy is situated right between these two forces. Currently, there are no forces connected to our east and west.”
Su Yuan nodded and asked, “Have there been any results from the exploration within our territory so far?”
The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable replied, “Most areas have been explored and understood, and outposts have been established. However, some places harbor hidden dangers, so we haven’t rushed to explore them yet. Additionally, evil spirits occasionally invade within the territory. This is what troubles me the most.”
“I will find a way to deal with the evil spirit matter. I’ll trouble you to hold the fort here. The Blood Moon Dao Court is not one to be trifled with!” Su Yuan said.
“For them to think about invading us? That’s a pipe dream!” The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable sneered, then added, “The evil spirit matter, I leave it to you!”
Su Yuan chuckled inwardly. The so-called evil spirits were, of course, Little Cai.
During this period, Little Cai had been causing trouble everywhere, and the calamities she brought were sufficient for her to achieve a breakthrough.
At this moment, within the Miluo Dao Court’s Heavenly Dao Platform.
The area where Little Cai was located happened to be erupting with soaring spiritual light, illuminating the heavens and earth of the Miluo Dao Court.
The Calamity Dao Principle fluctuated, heralding the emergence of a Calamity Dao Venerable!
The disciples waiting outside the Heavenly Dao Platform were already shocked to the point of numbness.
Their expectations had now shifted from wondering who could break through to the Dao Venerable realm to wondering who *couldn’t* break through.
Clearly, the breakthrough probability for those belonging to the Seven Stars Dao Palace had reached an absurd, friendless level.
Little Cai excitedly stepped out of the heavenly light pillar and looked back at the top of the Heavenly Dao Platform.
She scanned the remaining people.
Zhou Hao, Lin Feng, Ye Fan, Xuan Huang, Huang Gu, Duan Gu, Gu Qingzhu.
Then, Little Cai’s gaze locked onto Gu Qingzhu.
She felt the others could all break through. It was only this Gu Qingzhu who seemed to be struggling.
Everyone else was meditating with their eyes closed, comprehending. Only Gu Qingzhu was still staring with dead fish eyes, glaring intently at Little Cai’s location.
Even though separated by the array membrane, Little Cai could still see the look of utter disbelief on Gu Qingzhu’s face.
Little Cai rolled her eyes speechlessly and walked over, knocking on the heavenly light pillar.
Gu Qingzhu controlled the platform’s array, allowing sound and images to pass through inside and out.
“Su Si, you actually broke through!” Gu Qingzhu exclaimed in shock.
Little Cai rolled her eyes again. “Why are you so shocked? I am Master’s most beloved Little Cai. It would defy all reason if I *didn’t* break through, okay?”
“Teach me! I want to break through too!” Gu Qingzhu said miserably.
“What Dao Principle are you comprehending?” Little Cai asked, puzzled.
