In this world, there are canyons and streams, high mountains and waterfalls, and jade slips are scattered randomly throughout this world.
This is a special world created by the powerful beings of the Dao Alliance. It is very mysterious. Every holy city has such a world, which is called the "Dharma Realm" by cultivators.
The countless jade slips scattered throughout this world contain various supernatural powers and secret techniques, ancient Taoist scriptures, and even the inherited methods of the Eternal Emperors. However, the more powerful the method, the higher its price.
Xia Mangqing searched the Dharma Realm for a period of time before finally finding his target: the Nine Great Secret Techniques created by the Myriad Gods Dao Lord.
The nine secret techniques are: Nine Sources of Divine Water, Nine Sources of Divine Fire, Nine Sources of Divine Wood, Nine Sources of Thick Earth, Nine Sources of Profound Metal, Nine Sources of Divine Wind, Nine Sources of Divine Thunder, Nine Sources of Divine Light, and Nine Sources of Void.
The Nine Source Secret Techniques with the Five Elements attributes are the cheapest, but each one still requires one million cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid.
The three types—wind, thunder, and light—require 1.5 million cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid, with the void being the most expensive, requiring 5 million cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid.
"That's too expensive, I'll just buy the first part first."
Xia Mangqing thought to himself, the nine secret techniques are all divided into two parts. The first part is suitable for cultivation at the World Realm level and requires the assistance of divine objects at the Chaos level. The second part is suitable for cultivation at the Life and Death Dao Lord level and requires the assistance of divine objects of the Dao.
If it were the entire book, Xia Mangqing could only afford one or two types, but if it were just the first part, the price would only be one-tenth of the entire book, and he could buy it all.
"Purchasing the entire first part would require 1.45 million cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid, but Chaos Divine Objects are cheap, so even if you add them all up, it wouldn't even cost 10,000 cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid."
Xia Mangqing thought to himself that the reason for buying them all was that once all nine secret techniques were mastered, they could be further combined to make them even more powerful.
It should be noted that mastering the first part of any one of the Nine Source Secret Techniques is enough to suppress the peak of the World Realm. If all nine are combined, it is enough to rival the Life and Death Dao Lord.
Of course, Xia Mangqing values the profound mysteries even more. He plans to follow the path of chaos, and he intends to comprehend and study the Five Elements, wind and thunder, light and darkness, time and space, etc. In particular, he also wants to pass on the nine secret techniques to Perfect World. Even if it is only the first part, it is still nine supreme secret techniques, enough for the Golden Crow Primordial Spirit there to use for a long time.
Xia Mangqing said, then he picked up the nine jade slips and found a puppet guarding the Dharma Realm. The puppet glanced at them and said, "Nine scrolls of secret techniques, totaling 14.5 million cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid."
I will only buy the first part.
Xia Mangqing added, and the guardian puppet nodded: "A total of 1.45 million cubic meters of Chaos Spirit Liquid."
"Here you go." Xia Mangqing handed over a jade bottle.
After the guardian puppet investigated, it gently touched the three jade slips, and a small part of the restriction immediately dissipated. Xia Mangqing penetrated into them with his consciousness and then memorized the first part of the nine secret techniques.
"I've already noted it down."
"7
Xia Mangqing spoke, and the guardian puppet nodded. Then, with a wave of his hand, the restriction was restored, and the nine jade slips transformed into streams of light, flying back to the depths of the Dharma Realm.
Afterwards, Xia Mangqing also left the Dharma Realm and headed towards the place where treasures were traded in Tianmu Holy City. There were three places for trading treasures in the Holy City, but only Feiyu Tower was controlled by Tianmu Sect.
The other two places were established by two powerful emperors. They had close ties with Emperor Tianmu and the Dao Alliance, which allowed them to establish such trading grounds in the Holy City.
He came here naturally to buy Chaos Divine Objects. The Five Elements Chaos Treasures were the cheapest, each costing about ten units of Chaos Spirit Liquid. Light, Wind, and Thunder each cost about thirty units, while Void each cost about one hundred units. In total, Xia Mangqing spent two thousand four hundred units of Chaos Spirit Liquid.
After obtaining the Chaos Divine Artifact, Xia Mangqing immediately returned to the cave dwelling he had rented.
Then, he began to cultivate the Nine Source Divine Fire.
The Golden Crow Technique has similar methods. He has an avatar that uses a similar smelting method to cultivate a Chaos Divine Fire.
However, a single Chaos Divine Flame poses little threat to those at the World Realm level; since he reached that level, it has become completely insufficient.
What makes the Nine Source Divine Fire special is that it uses a method similar to alchemy to fuse nine kinds of chaotic divine fire, thereby unleashing even greater power.
Mastering even one technique would grant one the status of a supreme being at the peak of the World Realm, but the price alone is enough to deter countless cultivators.
"The source of divine fire is complete."
Within Xia Mangqing's body, in a corner of the Golden Core Chaos Space, nine kinds of divine fire had been refined by Xia Mangqing into the source of divine fire, radiating a profound aura.
Every chaotic divine object possesses the essence of the Dao, just as the "inextinguishable fire" created by Suirenshi is a manifestation of the Dao, albeit in a different direction. The same applies to chaotic divine objects.
The nine chaotic divine flames represent nine directions in the path of fire, some chilling, some blazing, some filled with destructive aura, and some brimming with boundless life force—
At this moment, they all transformed into the source of divine fire and formed an array. The Myriad Gods Dao Lord was exceptionally talented. The core of these nine secret techniques is alchemy, but in addition, they also require the assistance of the Great Dao techniques such as weapon crafting and array formations.
This is the formation that has been formed at this moment.
Moreover, this step is actually the simplest; the real challenge lies in fusing the nine divine flames to form a complex secret technique seed.
Xia Mangqing wasn't particularly skilled in alchemy, but he had cultivated the Azure Flower Space, which allowed him to cheat using the power of the Azure Flower Mist. This was exactly what he was doing at the moment. He activated the Azure Flower Mist, entered the Golden Core Chaos Space, and easily controlled the nine divine flames, beginning to refine them step by step through countless steps.
The nine divine flames continuously changed and merged, eventually transforming into a golden divine flame under Xia Mangqing's control. Finally, with a roar, the golden divine flame fell and transformed into an incomparably mysterious mark within the formation, which was the seed of the secret technique.
From then on, he could mobilize nine kinds of chaotic divine fire with a single thought, and emit golden divine fire through this secret technique seed.
That golden divine fire was the Nine Origin Divine Fire, a domain secret technique that could instantly envelop the vast void, easily burning even those at the World Realm Perfection stage to death.
After mastering the Nine Sources Divine Fire, Xia Mangqing first replenished the power of the Azure Flower Mist, and then, following the gourd drawing technique, gradually cultivated the remaining eight secret arts.
Boom!
The cave prepared by Tianmu Holy City had a vast interior space, a world unto itself. In the blink of an eye, Xia Mangqing unleashed nine secret techniques simultaneously. The five elements, wind and thunder, light and void instantly overlapped, transforming into a vast domain. Under the explosive power of the nine divine artifacts, the entire world trembled, as if about to be destroyed!
"Such power could probably be suppressed even by an ordinary Dao Lord at the first step," Xia Mangqing sensed the power of this domain and made a rough judgment.
The strength of the Dao Lords of Life and Death is related to the core Dao they broke through. The one who broke through with the Heaven-Stealing Life and Death Pill was the weakest. With the help of the first part of the Nine Source Secret Technique, Xia Mangqing was fully confident in killing him.
Secondly, there are ordinary Dao Lords of Life and Death, who are the most numerous Dao Lords in the Endless Territory. As for Dao Lords who broke through using the Heaven-Stealing Life and Death Pill—they are not even considered true Dao Lords of Life and Death in top-tier forces such as the Dao Alliance and Mangya Kingdom.
Being able to suppress an ordinary Dao Lord at the first step is considered monstrous in the World Realm.
"With the ability to rival Dao Lord Yibu, I can now explore many ancient lands more boldly. It's a good time to earn more resources. I don't need to buy the entire Nine Great Secret Techniques, but I should at least buy the Nine Origin Divine Fire and Divine Thunder."
He has gained the deepest understanding of these two paths, and by transforming them into the perfect path, he can also verify them with the precious techniques and supernatural powers he cultivates, such as the Golden Crow Technique, which may enable him to achieve further evolution.
Thinking of this, Xia Mangqing immediately left the cave and went to Feiyu Tower to buy some information about ancient ruins. Then he temporarily left Tianmu Holy City and headed towards an ancient place.
The Heavenly Ruins Realm, a sacred land of immortals.
Xia Mangqing cultivated in his personal cave, comprehending the Dao and Dharma of Yongchen Daojun, and verifying it with what he had learned and cultivated.
"town!"
One day, Xia Mangqing suddenly opened his eyes and took a step out, suppressing a piece of void. The terrifying power he possessed actually reached the threshold of the second-step Dao Lord!
This was based on the Qilin Step, incorporating some of the Void Dao Mysteries of Yongchen Daojun, some of the spatial mysteries of the Gu Clan's Treasure Technique, and then refined by Xia Mangqing's own many insights into the Dao of Space, ultimately leading to its derivation.
In fact, this ultimate Qilin Step is a manifestation of the secret technique of his Dao One Void Sealing. If he wished, he could also create other supernatural abilities and secret techniques to manifest it.
"This—should be considered a relatively strong path, right?"
Xia Mangqing thought to himself that if he were to use the strongest Dao, he could be completely comparable to an ordinary second-step Dao Lord. However, at this moment, the power of the Qilin Step was only barely at the threshold level of a second-step Dao Lord.
This is the limit that a stronger path can reach. However, even in Mangya Kingdom, reaching this level would make one a unique being in the world realm, with titles such as "Sword Lord" and "Heart Lord".
"The practice session went well."
Xia Mangqing was not dissatisfied. The ultimate path of chaos was destined to be a long journey. Void Sealing was the first path he created, but it was definitely not the last.
"Next, I will continue to study the Daoist techniques of Daoist Yongchen, half of the Gu Clan's treasured techniques, and the Qilin Technique, extract their essence, transcend them, and create my own unique Dao."
Xia Mangqing thought to himself, in fact, if he could fully comprehend the Qilin Technique to the level of creating a Dao, he would at least be the strongest Dao, if not the strongest one.
Moreover, the Qilin Technique has never appeared in the Wilderness before. If he comprehends that level, it can be considered as his own creation.
But—this is not his path.
Just as he created the Void Seal based on the Qilin Step, only his own true Dao and Dharma can allow him to go further. After all, the Qilin Dharma also has its limits. If he cannot transcend it, he will find it difficult to move forward in the future.
"Share it with other clones first."
With this thought in mind, Xia Mangqing's soul traveled to the Wilderness via the Ancient Chaos Road and then quickly returned. He could simply share the memories, and the perfect avatar of his original body would proceed to the next step.
Afterwards, Xia Mangqing left this sacred land of immortals.
Even without considering the time acceleration, he had already spent over ten thousand years there, but this amount of time was far too short for the entire Heavenly Ruins Realm.
After Xia Mangqing came out, he was about to teleport back to the temple he had come from, where the beings who participated in the trial could contact the black-armored youth guarding the first level.
"Brother Qingxuan?"
But the next moment, a figure emerged from the void, none other than the Moon Robe Immortal.
"Fellow Daoist Yue Chang," Xia Mangqing nodded calmly, "You wish to enter this Land of Creation?"
"That's right." Yue Chang looked surprised because she clearly saw that Xia Mangqing had just come out of this land of creation. He had only been in the Heavenly Ruins Realm for ten or twenty thousand years. Could it be that he had already obtained a great fortune?
"What level can you reach in the realm of spatial manipulation?"
Xia Mangqing countered, as far as he knew, Yue Chang's main focus was on illusion magic, and her mastery of spatial magic should not be very high.
"Barely able to reach the World Realm level."
Yue Chang didn't hide anything. After Xia Mangqing said that, she roughly understood what the trials in this blessed land were related to.
"Not enough." Xia Mangqing shook his head: "You need to reach at least the Perfect World Realm in the Dao of Space, and also have a deep enough understanding of the Dao of Restrictions, before you can possibly obtain the fortune within."
"Then, Brother Qingxuan, you—"
Yue Chang's gaze dimmed slightly. In the past ten or twenty thousand years, most living beings have been running around, searching for such a place of creation that they can enter, but they have not been lucky enough to open it.
"I have already obtained it and gained some insights. I am planning to go and find that guardian." Xia Mangqing said frankly. With his current strength, he can do whatever he wants on this first level. Whether he hides this matter or not is not important.
"Looking for that guardian?!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Chang's eyes widened immediately: "Brother Dao, you have already pioneered a path?"
Xia Mangqing nodded calmly, and Yue Chang immediately gasped. How long had it been?
In less than 20,000 years, Xia Mangqing actually created a path. How amazing and monstrous!
"Brother Dao—may I go with you to take a look?"
Yue Chang pleaded, wanting to witness it firsthand. If Xia Mangqing was truly a peerless prodigy, then there was no need to fight for the opportunities and fortunes within the Heavenly Ruins Realm; it would be better to find a way to leave as soon as possible.
"Whatever." Xia Mangqing said calmly, then teleported through the void towards the temple.
Before long, he arrived outside the temple. Through the exchange of divine thoughts, a figure emerged from the void—it was the black-armored youth.
"What do you want with me?" the black-armored youth asked. Although he was in charge of guarding the first floor, he was not omniscient, so he did not know Xia Mangqing's purpose in coming to him.
"Senior, I have created a path. Please verify it and see which level I can reach," Xia Mangqing said directly.
"What?!"
The black-armored youth was taken aback. Although he was a puppet, he was no different from a real living being and had his own thoughts. He remembered Xia Mangqing clearly; he was the first person to walk out of the temple.
But—how long has it been? Less than 20,000 years, and they've already created a path?!
"Or is he the kind of peerless prodigy that Master hopes to wait for?" The black-armored youth thought to himself. The Heavenly Ruins Emperor created the Heavenly Ruins Realm to select his personal disciples, so naturally he wanted to find the most talented and monstrous cultivators.
In fact, even the being who entered the third level was considered quite ordinary by the black-armored youth, who neither met nor had any hope of meeting the standards of the Heavenly Ruins Emperor.
But Xia Mangqing in front of me seems to have a real chance of achieving that!
