Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7003

Chapter 6913: First-Order Dao Ancestor

Over a hundred years passed, and finally, at a certain moment, the Listening to the Dao token at Li Tianming’s waist transformed into a beam of emerald light, enveloping him.

Li Tianming had already exited his cultivation state when this change occurred. The emerald light flashed, and when Li Tianming’s vision cleared, he was already beneath the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar.

Clearly, he had been sent out by the Listening to the Dao token, and like Senior Sister Yu Shang, he had been pushed down.

“Forced to leave? It seems at least two people have surpassed my Emperor Points,” Li Tianming said.

He already knew this rule, so Li Tianming wasn’t surprised; he could always fight back later.

The Listening to the Dao token had completely disappeared after teleporting him off the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar.

“This time, I’ve gained a lot, receiving many useful insights into the Great Dao, but I still need to digest them further before I can truly integrate them.”

“I’ll go back to the Burning Spirit Realm first, and digest them slowly when I get back,” Li Tianming decided.

Under normal circumstances, there was no need to stay at the Heavenly Emperor Sect; the Young Emperor Trial, the Battle of Ten Thousand Emperors, and now the Listening to the Dao were all unavoidable circumstances that forced him to stay longer.

So now, laden with his spoils, Li Tianming prepared to return home.

He ascended the Line Source Plank Road within the Heavenly Emperor Sect and quickly returned to the Heavenly Fate Palace, located within the Illusionary Heavenly Emperor City and under the jurisdiction of the entire Su Yan Palace.

The moment he entered the Heavenly Fate Palace’s isolation array, he immediately said,

“Yin Chen!”

“Oh, I understand!”

Yin Chen instantly understood.

An eternal purgatory realm, burning with raging flames, unfolded from his symbiotic space, completely enveloping Li Tianming’s body.

At the same time, a spatial rift appeared before him, and he stepped directly into it, instantly plummeting.

Swoosh!

…

Burning Spirit Realm.

Wei Sheng Mo Ran was sitting idly, watching the treetops swaying gently in the breeze within the Burning Spirit Realm, appearing quite relaxed.

After receiving Yin Chen’s notification, she activated her World Planet, and the small phoenix totem between her brows transformed into a miniature eternal purgatory realm, unfolding.

The flames dissipated, and Li Tianming emerged from it.

Jiang Feiling was also nearby. Seeing Li Tianming appear, she blinked her golden eyes and asked curiously, “Brother, how is Xiao Jiu doing?”

Li Tianming replied helplessly, “For now, it doesn’t accept our symbiotic relationship, but in terms of its situation, it’s safe for the time being and can communicate.”

Jiang Feiling said thoughtfully, “It seems it still needs some time, or more likely, a catalyst before it accepts you.”

Li Tianming sighed, “Never mind, I’ll communicate with it whenever I go to listen to the Dao. As long as I persist, I believe there will be a result.” Jiang Feiling nodded,

“Yes, I believe Xiao Jiu will be moved by your persistence, brother. Now, in a way, you’re cultivating together. Wouldn’t that be considered a kind of symbiotic cultivation?”

Li Tianming chuckled, “I hadn’t thought about it from that angle. However, it can only be called ‘co-cultivation,’ since we don’t actually communicate.”

Xiao Jiu was digesting dark matter energy, which should also be considered cultivation for it, while Li Tianming was listening to the Dao on the steps, which was also a form of cultivation.

After discussing Xiao Jiu, Sui Shenyao and An Ning dismounted from Li Tianming and went to chat with Jiang Feiling and Wei Shengmo.

The ancient chaotic beasts within the companion space also came out for some fresh air.

Although Meow Meow was usually a sleepyhead, after being possessed by Xiao Jiu, it became somewhat more listless.

Yinghuo dragged the peacefully sleeping Meow Meow to a tree.

“Rest well, Meow Brother, I’ll probably have to keep bothering you later,” Yinghuo said helplessly.

In its sleep, Meow Meow smacked its lips and mumbled, “It’s okay, as long as Ninth Brother is back, Meow. It will try to minimize its influence on me, I can feel it.”

After chatting with everyone and learning about the current situation of the people in the Burning Spirit Realm, Li Tianming also prepared to cultivate.

Currently, everything is progressing steadily. Zi Zhen and Lin Xiaoxiao continue their cultivation, Wei Sheng Mo Ran studies Dao formations, and Jiang Fei Ling sometimes rests in the Burning Spirit Realm and sometimes continues searching for clues about Mu Qing Qing’s original soul in the Lesser Chaos Milky Way.

However, after so much time, it seems there are still no leads, which is strange.

Li Tianming directly entered the Tai Xu Refining Star Tower, found a place to sit down, and prepared to cultivate.

Although Aurora was happy to watch Sui Shen Yao and the others chat, she couldn’t join in, so this time she accompanied Li Tianming in her Chaos Sword Maiden form, entering the Tai Xu Refining Star Tower together to accompany him in his cultivation.

The Dao sound of the Eternal Heavenly Emperor, this kind of nourishment for the Great Dao, is not an immediate improvement, but a gradual transformation.

Right now, Li Tianming is like someone who has overeaten, needing time to digest.

After calming down, he slowly comprehended and absorbed these insights.

Time slowly passed, and gradually, all the Primordial Dao within him actually began to grow!

His Emperor Primordial Dao, Destiny Primordial Dao, and various other Daos from his companion beasts all saw improvements!

The Dao principles Li Tianming absorbed while listening to the Dao were integrated with the actual situation, gradually completing all ten Daos.

Finally, without even using the Heavenly Venerable Dao, he directly broke through two realms, reaching the first-tier Dao Ancestor!

Boom!!

The Primordial Divine Seed within him surged, undergoing astonishing changes, and the depth of his Cosmic God Power skyrocketed!

This was a breakthrough to the next major realm!

Although the size of his Cosmic God Body remained unchanged, the change in his life level led to a dramatic transformation in his combat power.

Li Tianming exclaimed in surprise, “The effect of this lecture is so good that it can directly improve one’s cultivation level?”

Aurora smiled and said, “Many people break through when they first hear the lecture on the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Pillar, but it’s rare for someone like you to break through two levels in just one hundred years of listening.”

“So, the effect you achieved mainly depends on your own comprehension. Other disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Sect couldn’t do it.”

Li Tianming said with burning eyes, “In that case, this lecture was tailor-made for me. I’ll make good use of it whenever I have the chance.”

He then pondered, “However… there are other things to do right now.”

“I was worried about Xiao Jiu and was determined to meet her before conquering the star system. Now I’ve gotten my wish, and I also promised Governor Wei that after I break into the top 100 of the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking, I will fight alongside her.”

“Of course, more importantly, conquering star systems is also a test for my Imperial Path. No matter how much I improve by listening to the Dao, I still lack practice. Only by combining theory with practice can I obtain a more solid Imperial Path.”
