Regarding the concept of being only one calamity away from death, Qin Wushuang and the others found it hard to understand. What exactly would it take?
Qin Yunran knew these kids did not know much about the Supreme Dao Stage as he laughed. “You all think that being a Supreme Dao warrior means immortality? Even if the body dies, the Divine Soul will live forever, right?”
“Isn’t this the way?” Qin Hao asked with a stuttering tone. They had longed for the Supreme Dao benefits of immortality.
If being at the Supreme Dao Stage would not make one immortal, then why would everyone spend so much time and bitter efforts to reach this advancement?
“Ha ha, this is only a form of misunderstanding the outside world seems to have. Theoretically, although a true Supreme Dao warrior will not die, but only if their Divine Soul is not deceased. However, Supreme Dao warriors can still face calamities. The situations faced by the Supreme Dao can come swifter and more fierce than ordinary martial artists. Have you ever heard about the saying of the Five Decay of Man and Heaven? The general idea is this: each time a Supreme Dao warrior passes a stage, there will be hardships. With the Coagulate Spirit, for example, there are three small hardships, then three medium, and then three that are much more difficult. The first six are reasonable; however, the Great Calamity is extremely difficult. If you don’t look for it, it will look for you. I am currently at the eighth one of the Coagulate Spirit stage. Third Chief is at the sixth of the Coagulate Spirit stage.”
This explanation was extremely clear. Qin Wushuang and the others were absolutely clear about it and had a general understanding.
“The Coagulate Spirit is only the initial gathering of the Divine Soul, but is not yet consolidated. Each calamity would consolidate the Divine Soul further. Therefore, a difference between strength of each challenge also exists. If I pass the ninth challenge, that is the last of them, so I can advance into the Transformation Supreme Dao Stage! The Divine Soul of the Transformation Supreme Dao is extremely consolidated and you can begin to evolve the Divine Soul and use it to kill people. Therefore, using the Divine Soul to murder people will not work for elite Supreme Dao warriors only at the Coagulate Spirit level. That includes me, an eighth calamity Supreme Dao warrior!”
“The Transformation Supreme Dao stage also has nine challenges, three sections. After the Transformation Supreme Dao warrior has passed these nine again, they would be at the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage! Of course, reaching the level of the Genuine Supreme Dao is something I cannot even imagine. I am afraid it would be the strongest existence in all of the Tian Xuan Land.”
“A Genuine Supreme Dao warrior is the strongest?” When everyone heard the sensitive words of the strongest, all of them shivered with cold. In the world of martial arts, everyone had a keen interest in the concept of what was the strongest.
“Yes, it’s because above the Genuine Supreme Dao, would be the Celestial Supreme Dao. Celestial Supreme Daos can break through the restrictions of the Tian Xuan Land and truly be above all the rules of the land, it would be soaring galaxia!”
“Soaring Galaxia?” Qin Wushuang could not refrain from raising his head as he looked towards the boundless night sky. The specks of many stars in the starry sky appeared so abstruse and mysterious.
“However, the Genuine Supreme Dao place above the rules of the Tian Xuan Land, yet the starry sky is their limit! Wushuang, Taichong, all of you listen well. In this universe, there are countless stars. Among each star, they is only an ordinary plane. For example, our Tian Xuan Land is only one of the stars in this boundless starry sky. It is only a dust that decorates the general outlook of the universe. Therefore, even if the Genuine Supreme Dao is the peak of existence at the Tian Xuan Land, when putting it into the greater vision of the universe, what exactly is the Genuine Supreme Dao? Honestly, I cannot say.”
As Qin Yunran said this, he laughed as if he was trying to cover up an embarrassing situation. “Of course, everyone should not think about it too much. Certainly it will be unusually ridiculous if we are to estimate the boundless starry galaxy with our intelligence. Like the frogs at the bottom of the well, they don’t know how vast the sky and land are. I am not expecting you guys to soar through the galaxy. I only hope for you guys that during the path of pursuing the Supreme Dao, you can gain more foresight, wisdom, and less conflict in your hearts. The Qin Clan must take back the seat of the Heavenly Emperor! Or else, the future of the Qin Clan will be bleak!”
This was the substantial material. The so-called soaring of galaxia was too distant from them. Since they had not even entered the Supreme Dao Stage, they should not think about that Genuine Supreme Dao or even the Heavenly Supreme Dao.
Per this estimation, certainly there would be levels above the Heavenly Supreme Dao. Only, the classification of stages would not be concepts already existing in their Tian Xuan Land.
It would be a waste of effort to think about it. There would be no answer.
Qin Yunran’s words had seemed to open a giant door for Qin Wushuang. He witnessed another wide clearing of heaven and earth that opened up his vision.
On the contrary, Qin Hao asked, “Second Chief, then what is the strength of the Heavenly Emperor?”
This was a question in which everyone was concerned about. Usually when they saw the Heavenly Emperor appear aloof and remote, everyone still revered him from the bottom of their heart.
“The Heavenly Emperor?” Qin Yunran laughed. “The strength of the Heavenly Emperor cannot be compared by ordinary Coagulate Spirit elite warriors. The Heavenly Emperor has at least reached the seventh or eighth challenge of the Transformation Supreme Dao Stage.”
“Then does it mean that the Heavenly Emperor will most likely be upgraded into the Genuine Supreme Dao?”
“It’s possible, but only possible. At the Transformation Supreme Dao, each calamity is tough. One will surely suffer untold hardships to upgrade. Whether he can break through, it would depend on Xin Tianwen’s luck. However, if he did breakthrough and entered the Genuine Supreme Dao, I am afraid it would be tougher to pry open the position of the Xin Clan’s Heavenly Emperor.”
When Qin Yunran said this point, he was also deeply moved. However, in the end, he was an optimistic person by nature. He blew his long whiskers and laughed. “Everyone should not undervalue yourself. The Qin Clan is also a sect that has great fortune. Although we are currently at a low point for now, per the reincarnation of the natural law, there will always be low points with the rise and fall of situations. Certainly there will be a comeback after this depression. If our Qin Clan is touched by the natural law, certainly someone major will appear and great fortune will follow. Once he has appeared, what about it if one is at the Genuine Supreme Dao?”
Great figure, great fortune!
These few words hammered heavily into the bottom of everyone’s hearts. Everyone here were sons blessed by the heavenly gods in the Qin Clan. Deep inside their heart, they hoped they would be that great figure, the person with great fortune and luck. They hoped they would be the “Son of Heaven” for the future of the Qin Clan and the exceptional genius that would reconstruct the glorious time for the clan.
Qin Wushuang was not an exception. However, he did not show it on the surface. Although he was moved by such ideas, he had evidence.
“If I can grasp all of the Seven Deadly Arrays Formation, the formation said that the owner will have the chance to place above the peak of the Tian Xuan Land. In other words, the height of the Seven Deadly Arrays Formation is higher than the Heavenly Emperor Mountain’s Heavenly Emperor. It could be the same as the totem clan, or even higher than it. After all, although the totem clan is powerful, they are not powerful to the extent of being above the rules of the Tian Xuan Land. Each totem clan of the five great Forbidden Spiritual Zones restricts one another!”
Just when Qin Wushuang thought of it this way, all of a sudden, a strong burst of motivation surged through his heart. He was filled with an unprecedented desire to pound against that Supreme Dao stage.
To be placed above the rules, meant to ignore all the rules. While you were to lower and raise your head, you would be the existence to ignore all other people, including the totem clan.
Or else, how could you be placed above the Tian Xuan Land? Ranking above the Tian Xuan Land meant you could soar the galaxy and explore a higher plane!
Upon thinking here, Qin Wushuang felt extremely curious. Just who was the original owner of the Seven Deadly Arrays Formation? Could it be the original owner had surpassed the totem clan with his position?
Questions filled Qin Wushuang’s head, but he could not find an answer. However, he was not stubborn enough to think through it. He already had the formation in his hand.
Currently, he was already at the Profound Void Martial Stage and already qualified to explore the Fifth Loop. He decided that as soon as he could return from the Illusion Heavenly Lake, he would go and explore the Fifth Loop formation!
The Fifth Loop was at the Endless Eastern Sea! It was the most mysterious, the most complicated, and the most vast Forbidden Spiritual Zone in the Tian Xuan Land! Qin Wushuang longed for it.
Suddenly, Qin Yunran laughed. “After talking so much, we seemed to have gone off topic. If I remember correctly, I looked for you because I am to talk to you about the Illusion Heavenly Lake.”
As everyone kept asking questions one after the other, indeed, they had turned the topic.
Qin Taichong laughed and said, “Yes, Chief, what’s going on and when we are going to this Illusion Heavenly Lake and the Karakorum Immortal Clan? Compared to the Xuan Yuan Clan, which one is stronger?”
“Regarding who is stronger or weaker among the totem clan, not to mention that you and me cannot explain it clearly, even the totem clan themselves cannot speak it precisely. Due to such an unclear situation, the totem clan also fight openly and maneuver covertly, striving for jealousy and benefits. Once, an elite warrior from the Karakorum Immortal Clan of the Illusion Heavenly Lake had come to challenge the Xuan Yuan Clan at the Xuan Yuan Mound.”
As he said this, Qin Yunran shot a glanace at Qin Wushuang and laughed. “Of course, the rumors that are widely spread in the outside world talk of how this challenge was caused by the entanglement of love and not a dispute of personal feelings. Alright, this is outside the topic, let’s not talk about it. I asked you guys to come here because I am to instruct you that you must remember one problem when we are heading to the Illusion Heavenly Lake. This is the most important problem.”
“What problem?” Everyone was curious.
“Remember, regardless if you meet a girl that tempts you, do not forget, you must not get involved with love and the female martial artists at the Illusion Heavenly Lake. You are forbidden to form connections with the disciples of the Karakorum Immortal Clan, the totem clan. You cannot touch any of the disciples from the six major Daoist sect. These six Daoist sects are equivalent to the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates of the Xuan Yuan Mound. They are almost all female martial artists. If any of you are to get entangled with one of the female disciples, you are in grave trouble!”
These young people all chuckled; however, Qin Wushuang was undisturbed. He already had Mu Rong Xu. Of course, he would not get involved with any other love conflicts.
For the others, for now they do not have any experience with love. They have spent their days in ascetic practices and were unaware of the things between man and woman.
Because of this fact, Qin Yunran had given this special instruction. It was because for people who lacked emotional experiences, the easier it was for them to be trapped in the whirlpool of love. Once they were trapped, they would become fervent about it.
Qin hao laughed. “Second Chief, I don’t understand this. Since their sects are dominated by female martial artists, it’s appropriate for them to form marriage alliances with the outside world. When joining in marriage, why would it be a great trouble?”
“It’s simple, the martial artists of the Illusion Heavenly Lake are holding precepts. They do not participate in marriage like the secular man and woman. If anyone breaks the innocence of the female disciples of the Illusion Heavenly Lake, this would be disastrous.”
Qin Yunran was definitely not making up these words to frighten them.
Qin Hao flashed his tongue:,”Is this serious?”
“It’s definitely going to be this severe. These women are crazy. The most fatal part is that they despise marriage, men, and yet they take the initiative to tease men. They are truly indecisive.”
“This… Isn’t this awkward?” Qin Hao mumbled to himself.
“They are this awkward. It’s because they are female and they get involved with the affectionate pass. The affectionate pass is the same as their barrier in the training. They seek men for the affectionate pass, to test their heart. Don’t forget, they are using it for training, it’s definitely not genuine love!”
When Qin Yunran talked about this matter, he withdrew his cheerful and witty tone. Instead, he was being serious and repeated it earnestly to show that he was not joking.
Upon hearing the Second Chief describe this situation, suddenly, a few figures had emerged in Qin Wushuang’s head. The painful experience he had at the Bowl Valley emerged in his mind once again.
A thought flashed across his head for could it be that those girls had come from the Illusion Heavenly Lake?
Regarding the concept of being only one calamity away from death, Qin Wushuang and the others found it hard to understand. What exactly would it take?
Qin Yunran knew these kids did not know much about the Supreme Dao Stage as he laughed. “You all think that being a Supreme Dao warrior means immortality? Even if the body dies, the Divine Soul will live forever, right?”
