Above the Great Dao-Chapter 1511 - 702: Daluo Interception and Assassination

Chen Shi led twenty thousand soldiers towards the nearest Star Gate. When they were still over a hundred miles away, a floating continent suddenly appeared above the army. The verdant mountains and the suspended long rivers seemed so close that they could be touched by merely stretching a hand.

This continent exuded various strange Great Dao auras. Dao Images of various sizes floated between heaven and earth, suggesting it was a Dao Realm, and the area was extremely vast.

The aura it emitted was unsettling, seemingly not only containing the Immortal Dao but also various Outer Daos.

The many soldiers all looked up, examining this Dao Realm with mixed feelings of surprise and uncertainty.

Among them, there were also those with a Dao Realm, but the Dao Images they formed seemed very different from those of this Dao Realm.

"Aren’t Dao Images supposed to be the same?" someone asked in confusion.

At this time, Chen Shi’s voice came through: "Fellow brothers, the path ahead is feared to be perilous. Please hide within my Dao Realm for safety." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

The soldiers of the various battalions lined up neatly and flew towards the Dao Ruins one after another.

When the last group of Immortals entered the Dao Ruins, Chen Shi’s mind moved slightly, the space slowly closed, and the Dao Ruins disappeared.

Little Dun inquired, "Husband, do you think someone will ambush us on the way?"

Chen Shi replied, "To ruin the Ancestral Court, the Supreme has been laying plans since eight hundred years ago. Now that Immortal Wencheng is dead and Kun Dulun has been captured by me, ruining his grand scheme, such a great feud cannot go unavenged. The journey to the Heavenly Court will undoubtedly be fraught with danger."

Little Dun puzzledly said, "You are an honored minister of the Great Heavenly Venerate. Would the Heavenly Venerate sit by and watch you die at the hands of the Supreme? If you were killed by the Supreme, how could he command respect?"

Chen Shi laughed, "The Great Heavenly Venerate, of course, won’t allow me to die at their hands. He will certainly send experts to rescue me. But the problem is, the Great Heavenly Venerate also wants me to die, so I become one of his Heavenly Dao Divine People."

He smiled slightly, "They will probably strike when my life is hanging by a thread, save me, and then announce that I’m beyond saving. Forced to face death, I would have no choice but to become one of the Heavenly Dao Divine People. This move maintains the dignity of the Heavenly Venerate while successfully making me one of His Divine People -- it’s a win-win for Him."

Little Dun said angrily, "You are a meritorious minister; isn’t the Great Heavenly Venerate’s action chilling your heart?"

Chen Shi laughed, "I am left with no recourse but to become one of the Heavenly Dao Divine People. I have no other choice. As for heartbreak? Those Jie Sect members in the Heavenly Court, which of them is not heartbroken? Yet aren’t they still at the Heavenly Court’s beck and call?"

Little Dun’s eyes turned, and she smiled, "Husband, won’t you rebel against the Great Heavenly Venerate and establish another Heavenly Court?"

Chen Shi laughed heartily without answering, saying, "The Heavenly River Crossing is within the Great Heavenly Venerate’s domain."

Little Dun said no more.

The two entered the ferry and boarded a Star Shuttle.

This place was at the edge of the Earth Immortal Realm and close to Han Valley Pass, making it sparsely populated. On the Star Shuttle, there were only them and the boatman.

The Star Shuttle advanced by harnessing Star Power, heading towards the Earth Immortal Realm.

This journey would take more than ten days; Chen Shi and Little Dun watched from the ship, and beneath the shuttle, countless specks of light resembling flowing water were the endless stars.

The power of the stars gathered on the Star Shuttle, granting the ship amazing speed.

Chen Shi withdrew his gaze and continued to cultivate the Undying Immortal Method.

He had never seen the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill before, but with guidance from Immortal Master Erlang, he continued using the Undying Immortal Method as his foundation. After days of cultivation, he had elevated this technique to the True Immortal Realm.

The Undying Immortal Method was created by Wu Qi, who had limited contact with Immortal Law, thus being less influenced by it. This technique had extraordinary uniqueness.

The most distinctive feature of the Undying Immortal Method lies in Inner Refining, inscribing all of one’s information onto every bone and piece of flesh.

Thus, even with just one bone or flesh remaining, Wu Qi could revive, though at an extremely slow pace.

The Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill, however, affords a faster recovery rate, complementing their respective shortcomings when combined.

Another shortcoming of the Undying Immortal Method is in Body Refinement, where its cultivation speed is also not on par with the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill.

The third shortcoming lies in transformation, a domain where the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill excels; it can alter the body’s structure, appearance, physique, race, and even objects.

With Chen Shi’s revisions, the Undying Immortal Method focused primarily on Body Refinement, then recovery speed, leaving out the Transformation Skill, striving to streamline this cultivation technique as much as possible.

Wu Qi’s slow cultivation led to extreme precision in utilizing the nature’s spiritual energy and his own Primordial Qi during Body Refinement, but Chen Shi, carrying the Purple Heaven Vine with him, was akin to carrying a small Taiqing Holy Land.

Additionally, with the world’s top-grade Yuqing Dao Spring on Golden Turtle Island, his revised Undying Immortal Method aimed for bold and swift advancement during Body Refinement, with speed as the priority.

This highlights the difference between Immortal Law and Witchcraft. Witchcraft imprints oneself, while Immortal Law draws from heaven and earth, reflecting a significant ideological divergence between the two.

Yet, both Immortal Law and Witchcraft have their flaws. Even the Undying Immortal Method, which amalgamates their strengths, has inherent defects.

If an opponent finds the Dao Realm, they can devise against the Dao Images within the Dao Realm to detect the flaws of the other party, thus potentially killing them, preventing the Undying Immortal Method from reviving them.

As Chen Shi cultivated, a sudden thought struck: "If I integrate Zhong Erniu’s internal world into the Undying Immortal Method, wouldn’t this perfectly reconcile the shortcomings of Immortal Law and Witchcraft?"

His heart pounded with excitement.

Achieving this would be akin to attaining a nearly perfect undying body!

"Zhong Erniu is a real treasure," he mused.

Zhong Wuwang’s internal world also possesses numerous deficiencies, with the greatest being the limited extent of its territories compared to the vastness of the Harmonization Heaven and Earth, and its Heaven and Earth Dao Power is not as grand as the true heaven and earth.
