Invincible Starts From Dao Fruit-Chapter 698 - 507:

The One Origin Immortal Court was bustling with activity.

True Immortals gathered, and the most elite fourth-order cultivators of Shenzhou were all assembled here.

What people discussed the most was still ’Zhou Zu’, or the ’Zhou Sect’.

In Shenzhou, Zhou Zu held immense prestige, far surpassing even the founder of the One Origin Dao Sect and Master of Shenzhou Heaven and Earth.

People affectionately called him ’Zhou Zu’, showing utmost respect.

The ’Zhou Sect’, along with ’Zhou Yan’s followers’, was a haven that everyone admired and aspired to join, including the True Immortals.

In this sect, led by Zhou Yan, all forty-eight Direct Transmissions were True Immortals, with twenty being Third Realm True Immortals, encompassing half of the One Origin Dao Sect.

Going further down.

There were over a thousand Third Generation True Immortals.

Even through Fourth Generation, Fifth Generation, Sixth Generation, there were plenty of True Immortals.

The Dao Sect flourished.

It reached its peak with the Zhou Sect.

After four million years, with the old generation of True Immortals like Yuu Cheng Ancestor retiring, it was now the era of the Zhou Sect.

Among Zhou Zu’s disciples, the chief disciple Shen Qingyi, was now the current Emperor of the One Origin Immortal Court and the current Sect Leader of the One Origin Dao Sect.

His Daoist abilities and prestige were unparalleled.

With the backing of Zhou Sect’s many immortals, Shen Qingyi’s position as Sect Leader and Emperor was firmly secured.

This session of the ’Dayan Victory Conference’ was hosted by her.

...

"In the blink of an eye, the younger generation has grown up."

At the peak of Nine Heavens.

Fu Danzi, now in the Fourth Realm, looked at the grand event of the ’Dayan Victory Conference’ below, seeing the ’Green Robed Emperor’ seated at the head, and couldn’t help but sigh.

When he was the Daoist Sect Leader, Shen Qingyi had just proven True Immortal. By the time he stepped into the Fourth Realm two hundred years ago, Shen Qingyi was still a Second Realm True Immortal.

Now looking again.

Even Zhou Yan’s disciples had reached the True Immortal Third Realm, the level he had remained at for tens of millions of years. Fu Danzi sighed and felt gratified.

Not only Fu Danzi.

Beside him.

Other four Ancestor Masters of One Origin Dao Sect were also present.

Yiyuan Ancestor Master.

Taisu Ancestor.

Zhengg Yuan Ancestor.

And Chen Jichuan, the ’Dongqi Ancestor’.

The five gathered here.

Among them, the first four were Fourth Realm True Immortals, except for Chen Jichuan, who was still Third Realm. But whether in the Dao Sect, within Shenzhou, or in Jade Toad Great Heaven and Earth or across the universe, Emperor Dongqi Zhou Yan’s reputation was far more resounding than these four, even surpassing the Yiyuan Ancestor Master, the Master of Shenzhou.

Fu Danzi felt emotional here.

Taisu Ancestor smiled and said, "Who would have thought that Shenzhou and the One Origin Dao Sect would have such prosperity today."

Eighty thousand True Immortals!

This was the top-tier force in Jade Toad Great Heaven and Earth.

The development of One Origin Dao Sect in recent years had been so fast that even Taisu Ancestor felt a bit surreal.

At this rate, matching those ancient forces that appeared since the cosmic collapse, it was only a matter of time.

Taisu Ancestor looked forward to that day.

But, as for now, despite the One Origin Dao Sect being at its zenith and having many True Immortals, after all, it was a new rise within four million years, and its foundation was still shallow compared to those ancient forces inherited for billions of years across Jade Toad Great Heaven and Earth or other great heavens.

"As the number of True Immortals in our Dao Sect increases, conflicts with top forces like Qingzhu Palace, Eternal Hall, Star Universe Immortal Sect in Jade Toad Great Heaven and Earth have intensified."

"In recent years, these forces have intended to join forces to kill Dongqi and annihilate our Dao Sect."

"If Dongqi had not personally gone, blocked their gates for ten thousand years, severely injured twenty-seven Fourth Realm True Immortals of the nine major forces, and taken away six Ancient Immortal Instruments, stabilizing the entire Jade Toad Great Heaven and Earth, the war might have already erupted."

"However, in a few years, when ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’ opens, top forces like Qingzhu Palace, Eternal Hall, Star Universe Immortal Sect will undoubtedly seize this opportunity. In ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’, these people will probably not let their chance slip and continue targeting Dongqi."

Zhengg Yuan Ancestor saw clearly.

The rise and fall of the Dao Sect now rested on Zhou Yan alone.

As long as Zhou Yan is eliminated, the Dao Sect would not only lack successors but also lose many newly risen True Immortals.

Moreover, in terms of peak combat strength, one Origin Dao Sect, with only four Fourth Realm True Immortals, would struggle to maintain the large-scale situation in Jade Toad Great Heaven and Earth.

Qingzhu Palace and other top forces had tried to deal with Zhou Yan, but he alone suppressed them.

That battle made Zhou Yan famous in Jade Toad.

Peak True Immortals.

Leading forces.

They were all helpless against Zhou Yan, with several attempts causing severe losses.

However, Qingzhu Palace, Eternal Hall, and others remained ancient, and their exploration and understanding of the ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’ were undoubtedly far beyond the Yiyuan Ancestor Master and the One Origin Dao Sect.

This time might be their chance.

Using ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’, to eliminate Zhou Yan and perhaps even wipe out the other four Fourth Realm True Immortals in the One Origin Dao Sect.

Zhengg Yuan Ancestor was cautious, vigilant.

On the eve of the ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’, he became even calmer.

"Indeed." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Beside him, Yiyuan, Taisu, and Fu Danzi all nodded.

Yiyuan Ancestor Master looked at Chen Jichuan, "Our Dao Sect now occupies fourteen second-class Cosmic Strange Lands, of which ten are guarded by you, causing each side to retreat. If you were to have a lapse, the rest of us could not maintain them."

Yiyuan Ancestor Master’s tone carried a touch of humor.

But his words were not a joke.

This cosmos had many treasured lands and dangerous terrains, each offering wonders that even True Immortals marvel at, thus termed ’Cosmic Strange Lands’.

These ancient forces divided them according to the degree of danger into six classes.

In Cosmic Strange Lands, danger and opportunity coexist.

The first-class sites are places so perilous that even Peak True Immortals must be cautious, exploring with care, but reaping significant rewards.

Even Ancient Immortals must treat them with caution.

The second-class sites are slightly less dangerous, but Peak True Immortals can still benefit from them, with chances of falling.

The third-class corresponds to the level of ordinary Fourth Realm True Immortals.

Going further down, the fourth, fifth, and sixth classes respectively correspond to Third Realm True Immortals, Second Realm True Immortals, and First Realm True Immortals.

Throughout the cosmos.

The first-class Cosmic Strange Lands, such as ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’ and ’Sky-reaching Mountain’, are often associated with Ancient Immortals, with some even requiring Ancient Immortals to be cautious, filled with dangers and fortunes.

The former had many Peak True Immortals perish within.

Such as Yiyuan Ancestor Master and Taisu Ancestor.

During their first entry into the ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’, they were engulfed by overwhelming evil energy, both perishing, each losing a carefully cultivated True Body of Dharma Domain, suffering immense loss.

And this was considered lucky.

In ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’, losing a True Body of Dharma Domain was not uncommon; even Peak True Immortals exploring with avatars faced disasters affecting their true bodies outside, leading to both body and avatar’s demise.

The number of Peak True Immortals falling was not few.

Such is the first-class Cosmic Strange Lands.

The second-class, like those of Yiyuan Ancestor Master and other Peak True Immortals, still required cautious exploration, as their dangers posed lethal risks, albeit not as severe as ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’.

These strange lands aid the cultivation of Peak True Immortals or nurture various rare treasures, or have other functions, resulting in competition among forces and Peak True Immortals.

The newly risen One Origin Dao Sect occupied fourteen such second-class Cosmic Strange Lands.

Yiyuan Ancestor Master, Taisu Ancestor, and others cultivated there, making considerable progress in recent years.

But among the fourteen second-class lands, ten were guarded by Chen Jichuan, each defended by an avatar. If Chen Jichuan faced any mishap in ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’, these lands would be lost, delivering a severe blow to Yiyuan Ancestor Master and others’ future cultivation.

Therefore, they could not be too cautious about this journey to the ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’.

The path has no end.

True Immortals have numerous means, with ancient inheritances and relics above them. No one knows what cards those ancient forces still have hidden.

In ’Immortal Fall Battlefield’, such an environment might be the best time to deploy them.
