Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” - Chapter 561: Extreme Dream's Refusal
Venerable Ranmeng, upon seeing the handsome and dashing Su Yuan, immediately lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
She knew all too well how absurdly capable a Chaos Dominator’s methods could be. It was entirely possible their earlier conversation had already been overheard by him. This was just too awkward.
Dominator Jiemeng, however, smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Seven Stars, this Sovereign has come specially to celebrate your achievement in attaining the Chaos Dominator realm! I later made a point of inquiring about your journey, and it was truly astonishing. The speed of your breakthrough is unprecedented in the Chaos!”
Su Yuan also smiled in response. “Fellow Daoist Jiemeng, you flatter me. My cultivation time was not actually short; it’s just that most of it was spent under time acceleration. The path of cultivation is arduous, a solitary trek. Every single step consumes immense mental effort.”
His conversation with Dominator Jiemeng was clearly transmitted to the ears of every cultivator attending the celebration.
Many cultivators showed expressions of sudden understanding, feeling these words were not mere modesty from the Seven Stars Dominator. Which Chaos Dominator could achieve their breakthrough simply and easily?
Dominator Jiemeng laughed heartily. “Fellow Daoist Seven Stars, there’s no need for such humility. Back when you fought Wudaizi, your realm had only just stepped into the quasi-Dominator realm, correct? Even under the fastest time flow, it wouldn’t have been that long.”
Su Yuan nodded at this point. “It seems you’ve seen through me. Indeed, I did break through to the Chaos Dominator realm in a relatively short period of time!”
As soon as his words fell, Dominator Jiemeng’s expression froze.
This admission left Dominator Jiemeng at a loss for words.
Venerable Ranmeng also stared at Su Yuan, utterly dumbfounded.
Dominator Jiemeng sighed with feeling. “Fellow Daoist, you are truly forthright!”
Su Yuan’s gaze calmly swept over the large number of cultivators participating in the celebration. He could see wisps of Fame Points continuously rising from everyone’s heads, rapidly converging towards him.
These Fame Points could not only be converted into Chaos Jade; more importantly, they provided direction for the enhancement of his True Name Power.
Every single wisp of fame added another brick to the edifice of his True Name Power, constantly accelerating his comprehension of the Chaos True Intent.
Especially from Dominator Jiemeng beside him. The Fame Points she provided were directly at the Chaos Jade level, and their cultivation boost for him exceeded the sum total of all other cultivators combined.
If the cultivation boost effect from all other cultivators was a multiplier of 1.3.
Then the Fame Points provided by a single Chaos Dominator alone could accelerate his cultivation by 2 times!
This was the significance of a Chaos Dominator! One individual was worth countless living beings.
Dominator Jiemeng was unaware of Su Yuan’s thoughts. Seizing the moment before the other Dominators arrived, she finally asked curiously, “Fellow Daoist Seven Stars, I have not heard that you already have a Dao Companion. I wonder if you would be willing to accept a female cultivator as your Dao Companion?”
Venerable Ranmeng immediately lowered her head, her face full of shyness.
Su Yuan gave a slight smile. “A Dao Companion is unnecessary. This Sovereign cultivates for a lifetime and has no need for a Dao Companion’s company. However…”
Dominator Jiemeng said regretfully, “However what?”
Su Yuan looked towards Ranmeng, and also towards all the cultivators present.
“This Sovereign has no need for a Dao Companion, but I can accept disciples. Any Dao Venerable who has the confidence to break through to the Chaos Dominator realm can apply to become my disciple. I will set up trials. Those who can pass the trials will be accepted as my disciples, and I will assist them with all my strength to break through to the Chaos Dominator realm.”
Su Yuan spoke slowly and clearly.
His words immediately caused all the cultivators present to be taken aback, followed by looks of pleasant surprise directed at Su Yuan.
A Chaos Dominator was actually willing to accept disciples!
That was a Chaos Dominator! As long as one could successfully become his disciple, not only would the possibility of breaking through to the Chaos Dominator realm in the future be higher, but one would also immediately possess the most top-tier background and status in the Chaos!
Countless people felt a deep yearning.
Among the attendees, the Blood Moon Dao Lord was moved.
He was currently a seventeenth-order Dao Venerable, but he could see no path forward for a breakthrough. If he could successfully become a disciple, wouldn’t he then have hope of breaking through to become a Chaos Dominator?
His heart was filled with anticipation, and he was very curious about what the so-called trials would be.
Only then did Su Yuan address Dominator Jiemeng. “Fellow Daoist Jiemeng’s daughter, Venerable Ranmeng, possesses exceptional aptitude. Many of her conditions also meet my requirements. I can accept her as my disciple.”
Dominator Jiemeng felt both amused and exasperated in her heart. She had wanted to find a Dao Companion for her daughter, not seek the backing of a Chaos Dominator.
She herself was a Chaos Dominator. Why would she need her daughter to become a disciple of another Chaos Dominator?
Dominator Jiemeng shook her head. “This matter is not something I can decide for Ranmeng. I will ask her privately later.”
Venerable Ranmeng also showed a hesitant expression. She was already at the quasi-Dominator realm. With her mother’s guidance, there really was no need to become a disciple of another Chaos Dominator. That would be too embarrassing for her mother’s reputation.
The two conversed for a while longer.
Outside the Dao Court, streaks of escaping light rapidly approached.
The other several Dominators had also arrived.
“Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Jiemeng, you arrived quite early!” Che Chi Old Man laughed loudly as he walked closer.
Su Yuan stepped forward to greet them. “Fellow Daoists, please take your seats!”
Che Chi Old Man, Wuyazi, the Stone Dominator, the Moon Dominator, the Taixuan Dominator, and the Heavenly Virtue Celestial Venerable all took their seats.
Eight Chaos Dominators gathered together in one hall, making a public appearance, astonishing all the cultivators participating in the celebration.
They all marveled at Su Yuan’s power, actually able to invite seven Chaos Dominators at once.
Che Chi Old Man was the first to ask curiously, “Just now, I heard Fellow Daoist mention wanting to open a path for accepting disciples. I wonder what exactly these so-called trials are?”
Su Yuan smiled slightly. “It’s very simple. I’ve heard that conflicts and battles occur between Dominator forces to determine the distribution ratio of Chaos Jade Marrow. Since that’s the case, I propose formalizing these conflicts, establishing a fixed killing battlefield for combat!”
He paused before continuing, “To become my disciple, one simply needs to obtain a certain amount of killing points within this killing battlefield. Different realms have different requirements.”
Che Chi Old Man said in surprise, “A killing battlefield? How would it be established? Since Fellow Daoist has proposed it, you must already have a plan, right?”
Su Yuan said calmly, “Using an independent time-space as the location for the battlefield, investing a large amount of resources into it, and letting cultivators fight and compete for them can form a killing battlefield. Actually, I drew inspiration for this matter from the three of you: Che Chi, Wuyazi, and the Stone Dominator!”
The Stone Dominator suddenly understood. “You’re talking about the struggle for opportunities on those nine Treasure Stars? That was indeed something the three of us set up!”
His words shocked the cultivators among the clouds. Only now did they learn that the Nine Extreme Treasure Stars were actually the handiwork of three Chaos Dominators!
Su Yuan nodded. “Correct. Therefore, I propose directly establishing the independent time-space where those Treasure Stars are located as the killing battlefield. It can be used to solve the problem of resource distribution while also nurturing talent. It serves multiple purposes at once!”
