Terran Guardian - Chapter 3925

Chapter 3901 The Legacy of the Primordial Dao Lord

He broke through to the eighth-tier, second-grade Grandmaster level in weapon crafting.

This news was known only to a few high-ranking members of the sect. Other cultivators, though aware of the divine weapon’s emergence due to the heavenly tribulation, were unaware of the specific details.

After this breakthrough in weapon crafting, Shen Changqing continued as before.

Eight million years had passed,

and the strength of the Seven Profound Dao Sect steadily increased.

With the foundation of the Heavenly Lan Sword Pavilion as a safety net, and the Seven Profound Dao Sect now being the chosen one of the Taiyuan Prefecture, most of the resources of its vast territory fell into Shen Changqing’s hands.

Therefore ,

it was difficult for the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s strength not to rise.

Moreover,

due to the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s reputation and status, many geniuses from the Star Luo Immortal Domain became its disciples.

As more and more geniuses joined the sect, the Seven Profound Dao Sect’s strength naturally increased significantly, and the sect’s fortune also steadily rose.

The higher the fortune ,

the stronger the disciples!

The stronger the disciples, the more prosperous the sect’s fortune!

This was a virtuous cycle.

Of course,

this improvement was not without its limitations.

Just like a cultivator’s cultivation, there are also bottlenecks in improving one’s fortune.

But when fortune reaches a bottleneck, it can only be accumulated little by little. After accumulating to a certain level, it can break through the limit and then transform into a higher level.

Now,

the fortune of the Seven Profound Dao Sect has reached its current limit. To

go further,

advancement requires a long period of accumulation.

Such a breakthrough cannot be achieved by adding a few more Immortal Emperors.

Even adding a few more Half-Saints might not be enough to break through the fortune.

“It’s a pity that although there are many records about fortune, some key secrets are difficult to find out.

Otherwise, I could figure out what level the sect’s fortune is at right now—”

Shen Changqing muttered to himself.

Over the years, he has been secretly paying attention to information about fortune.

But unfortunately,

Shen Changqing cannot know much about the secrets of fortune.

So far, he can say that he understands a lot about fortune, but he can’t say that he has a deep understanding of it.

Just then,

another thunderclap rang out.

Blood rain poured down

from the clear sky once more. A strange aura permeated the heavens and earth.

The moment this aura appeared, the Soul-Destroying Sword, which had slumbered for millions of years without any movement, trembled slightly.

Then,

its divine sense revived.

This change was immediately noticed by Shen Changqing.

“Senior—”

“The aura of a demon!”

Jiu Ye’s calm voice slowly came out, with a hint of solemnity in its tone.

When Shen Changqing heard this, his expression also became much more serious.

“A demon… Senior means that another great demon has appeared in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm!”

A great demon!

How could Shen Changqing be unfamiliar with such beings?

Two great demons had appeared in Shenfeng Prefecture. The first great demon caused the Ziyang Domain to fall, and even caused the Supreme Being to bleed.

If Jiu Ye hadn’t personally intervened and killed that great demon, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The second great demon was even more terrifying.

The enemy unleashed a calamity that caused the fall of most of Shenfeng Prefecture, resulting in the deaths of countless powerful individuals, including forces of the caliber of the Six Sects, Nine Dynasties, and Thirteen Holy Lands.

Later, the calamity spread to numerous Immortal Prefectures, causing immeasurable casualties.

Ultimately,

all forces paid a heavy price to finally slay the great calamity.

Now,

another great calamity has appeared.

Shen Changqing naturally understood the severity of the problem behind this information.

Jiuye said, “This is the aura of a malevolent spirit. I cannot be mistaken. Great malevolent spirits have existed since the beginning of chaos.

For countless ages, our war against them has raged.

In the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, many ancient battlefields remain.

Some of these battlefields harbor immortal malevolent spirits, while others even seal passages to other realms!”

“The power contained within these seals is terrifying. Logically, even after countless ages, it should be difficult for time to weaken or erode them.

But there are always exceptions. If a great calamity erupts, and cultivators fight, it’s not impossible for someone to break through these seals and release the malevolent spirits that have been sealed for countless ages.”

Jiuye

paused before continuing,

“If it’s just releasing a malevolent spirit, that’s fine. But if it opens a passage to another realm, that’s the real trouble!”

“A passage to another realm?”

Shen Changqing looked puzzled. He vaguely understood what a passage to another realm was.

Sure enough,

just as this thought crossed his mind, Jiuye’s voice rang out.

“Another Realm!”

“That’s where the evil spirits reside!”

“You don’t need to ask me why the Other Realm exists, because its origins are difficult for anyone to ascertain.

You only need to know that the Other Realm is the territory of the evil spirits, where many powerful evil spirits dwell.

Any powerful evil spirit emerging from the Other Realm is a devastating disaster for all living beings.”

Hearing Jiu Ye’s words, Shen Changqing’s expression turned solemn.

At the same time

, he silently memorized what the other party said.

The Other Realm!

Shen Changqing buried these two words deep in his heart.

Jiu Ye said, “Evil spirits exist for destruction. Since the emergence of evil spirits, countless chaotic realms have been destroyed, and countless beings have perished.

Prodigies have shed blood, cultivators have died!

Among the powerful beings of the chaotic realms throughout history, countless have perished in the fight against powerful evil spirits…”

By the end,

Jiu Ye’s tone had become more sentimental.

From his few words, Shen Changqing could almost see the scene of fighting the Great Demon.

“So, the reason why Great Demons are rare in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm now is because the ancient powerhouses have suppressed them?”

“Yes, and no—”

Jiu Ye’s voice came again.

“The rarity of Great Demons in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is certainly due to the suppression by ancient powerhouses, but in reality, our war against the Demons has never ceased.

It’s just that the true battlefield is not in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

It is because many predecessors resisted the Great Demons that you are spared from their calamities.

Otherwise, the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm would have already fallen!”

Jiu Ye’s words silenced Shen Changqing.

The true battlefield!

At this moment, he understood where the battlefield the other party spoke of truly came from.

“The battlefield you spoke of, senior, must be the place where those Great Dao Lords reside!”

“You’re right. That place is called the Primordial Immortal Realm, and it also has another name: the Outer Heavens. With your talent, you should be qualified to go to the Outer Heavens in the future.

However, for now, the Outer Heavens are too far for you.

Even Immortal Emperors cannot set foot on such a battlefield.

Even a Half-Saint is nothing more than a slightly larger ant in the Outer Heavens!”

Jiu Ye clearly didn’t intend to elaborate on the Outer Heavens, and Shen Changqing didn’t press further.

After all, some things, if the other party wanted to say, would naturally say; if not, it simply wasn’t the right time.

Asking further would be pointless.

Therefore ,

Shen Changqing changed the subject.

“Senior, do you know what level of existence this newly emerged great evil spirit is?”

“It’s hard to say, but it’s at least at the Dao Venerable level.

However, I am not at my peak now, so I can’t explore too much. But the foundation of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is not as simple as you think.

Even if a great evil spirit has emerged, there should be other powerful beings to deal with it. Besides… the Chaos Heavenly Dao here is no longer as incomplete as it used to be,

and it won’t allow too strong an evil spirit to appear. At most, it’s only at the level of a Chaos Ruler!”

Jiu Ye’s words made Shen Changqing fall silent again.

A Chaos Ruler!

He had only heard of such an existence.

But even a Dao Venerable level evil spirit was enough to cause a calamity affecting many immortal states, causing countless powerful beings to perish.

If a Chaos Ruler level evil spirit really appeared, the turmoil it would cause would be unimaginable.

Perhaps.

Only an existence like Jiu Ye would be so indifferent to a Chaos Ruler.

But from Jiu Ye’s words, Shen Changqing also heard another meaning.

“Senior, are you saying that the Chaos Heavenly Dao was once incomplete?”

“That’s right!”

Jiu Ye said.

“In extremely ancient times, the Chaos Heavenly Dao became incomplete for some reason. Because of this, powerful evil spirits took advantage of the situation.

Many top experts perished in that era, and I was also severely injured during that time—”   Jiu Ye paused

.   ”Later, a powerful figure stepped forward, sacrificing himself to become the Dao, ultimately mending the incomplete Heavenly Dao and perfecting the Three Thousand Great Daos, which led to the present state!”   ”Who was that powerful figure?”   ”His name is the Primordial Dao Lord!”   ”The Primordial Dao Lord—”   Shen Changqing’s heart trembled upon hearing this name.   This was the second time he had heard the name of the Primordial Dao Lord.   The Primordial Immortal Body he possessed came from this Primordial Dao Lord.   Jiuye said, “The Primordial Immortal Bodies of every generation are favored by the Heavenly Dao. Although each generation of Primordial Immortal Bodies ultimately perishes, the heights they reach are unmatched by ordinary Innate Immortal Bodies.   Other Innate Immortal Bodies may not have a chance to shine before being completely buried in the dust of time.   But the Primordial Immortal Bodies are different… There are no mediocre Primordial Immortal Bodies in any generation.   The reason for this is the legacy left to you by the Primordial Dao Lord!”   These words   resonated deeply with Shen Changqing, like a resounding bell.   So that’s how it is!   Now that Jiuye has revealed such a secret, Shen Changqing reflected on his own path. Although there were dangers, he had always managed to overcome them.   Now it seemed that he too had inherited the legacy of his predecessors.   To be precise,   he had inherited the legacy of that Primordial Dao Lord.   The other party transformed themselves into the Dao, mending the flaws of the Heavenly Dao, thus rendering a great service to the Chaotic Heavenly Dao. I, as the Primordial Immortal Body of this generation, am naturally favored by the Heavenly Dao.   What is the Chosen One?   The so-called Chosen One is ultimately a product of a certain era.   Compared to the legacy of creation left behind by that Primordial Dao Lord, they are utterly insignificant.
