Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant Chapter 2370 - 192: Changes Within the Domain
Previously on Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant...
"Has the Little Cang World truly broken through its boundaries?"
"He has actually done it!"
The Chongyuan Patriarch stared at the Black Realm ahead, which had expanded manyfold and was greedily absorbing the immense Chaos Origin Substance nearby. Even though he had taken part himself, the sight of this still filled him with an overwhelming sense of awe that words could barely capture.
He had long known that mighty cultivators could reshape worlds without much effort. Yet, to rewrite the fate of a whole realm was an incredibly uncommon feat, one that completely upended his deeply rooted beliefs.
Right then, as he watched Wang Ba organizing the Domain, a faint spark of realization dawned on him.
The Domain's rules are incredibly complex and deep, going far beyond what any single cultivator can grasp. Their profound connections and tight weaves keep them concealed, so it's usually tough for cultivators to draw lessons from the Domain. It takes the Domain turning into a lifeless shell for cultivators to probe its remains and claim its last offerings.
Still, a living Domain differs vastly from one that's dead.
Everyone could see the full sequence of Little Cang World shattering and rebuilding, boldly challenging the heavens to alter its path, surpassing its bounds, and rising to a Great Realm—all guided by Wang Ba. Thanks to his ties to the Dharma Lineage, nearly all the Domain's rules appeared through him.
The ways they function, shift, and blend with other rules, harmonizing to form a full Domain...
Many onlookers grasped only bits and pieces, some gained deep understandings, and just a handful of cultivators hit a flash of insight, a true breakthrough moment!
With their thoughts churning in astonishment, certain individuals shut their eyes right there to ponder intensely.
Some remained motionless, yet their consciousness had fully dived in...
The Qitian Patriarch and Chongyuan Patriarch, both long stalled right before the mid-stage of Crossing Tribulation, needed only a final push to advance. Taking part in Little Cang World’s ascension and seeing so many rules unfold right in front of them offered huge gains. Without their lingering wounds, they would have retreated into isolation to break through at once.
Beyond those two Patriarchs, even Gan Xiong, Qiao Zhongxu, Taoist Master Yingyuan, and fellow rule-touchers all felt a surge, sparking endless new comprehensions.
The trio of original Taoist Masters from the Sea of Chaos Realm sensed it the strongest.
Achieving transcendence to rules in the unique Sea of Chaos Realm setting, attaining the Wonderful Feeling Realm, owed much to the Three Great Realms and ancestors' efforts, yet each of these three boasted unmatched Talent, shining brighter than their equals.
Hampered by their surroundings and blocked from finishing breakthroughs, seeing Little Cang World’s process up close made their rule insights gush like an endless fountain.
Besides rule-comprehending cultivators, plenty of Perfect Practitioners from the Cloud Sky Realm’s Wanxiang Sect, Holy Desecration Realm, Jade Pot Realm, and Double Body Realm also caught glimpses, to varying degrees, of what lay beyond the Dao Domain...
By contrast, Little Cang World’s cultivators advanced at breakneck speed, short on solid groundwork. Even top talents like Zhao Feng only caught a hazy impression.
Wang Ba observed the shifts in all the gathered cultivators, yet a sense of powerlessness weighed on him inside.
Grasping rules hinges completely on personal groundwork and Talent, with the second only emerging from the first.
Since Little Cang World set off on its journey, they'd surged ahead in a mere one or two millennia. A lot came from Immortal Blood perks, the Realm Sea conditions, and the Triple Layer of Suffering. But their base buildup lagged far behind typical cultivators.
Side-by-side looks at Dao Domain and Primordial Spirit hid the gap before, but it showed clearly now.
Even so, a seed was planted in Little Cang World’s cultivators. Once they've built sufficient groundwork, looking back on this day will let it grow and flourish naturally...
"Boom!"
In that instant, one figure's aura sparked a ripple across the nearby void, carrying a rule that felt raw but clearly defined!
This pulled the focus of those cultivators close by.
Wang Ba sharpened his sight, his eyes lighting up abruptly, struck with real surprise:
"Master?"
Yao Wudi posed boldly amid the void, face relaxed, as his Seventh Tier Yellow Dao Domain roiled around him, apparently gathering several rules simultaneously...
"This disciple possesses incredible Talent!"
The Chongyuan Patriarch couldn't hold back his shocked expression.
He easily identified this junior disciple and knew of his bond as Wang Ba's master.
He hadn't foreseen that, with Wang Ba's rare gifts, his own Master would prove equally exceptional.
Wang Ba reflected inwardly:
"The Dharma Lineage..."
The Dharma Lineage path starts tough and smooths out later. It's akin to rolling a massively heavy cart, brutally hard at the outset, where most cultivators can't even start. But after passing a key point, the cart rolls quicker and quicker, outpacing all others in the end.
Earlier, when Wang Ba first broke down Little Cang World’s rules in the Realm of Immortal Ascension, it stemmed from the Dharma Lineage's vast scope, letting various essences, Dao Laws, and Dao Domains verify one another.
And Master Yao Wudi’s smooth grasp of rules now clearly backs up this view.
He knew full well that Master Yao Wudi’s Talent and smarts stood unmatched in his Wanxiang Sect generation, where even Shao Yangzi and Xun FuJun drew high hopes, showing his standout quality.
That said, in the Wanxiang Sect's wider past, he wasn't one-of-a-kind, but his rule comprehension let him outstrip peers and elders alike, underscoring the Dharma Lineage's power.
