Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant Chapter 2507 - 238: Breakthrough (Part 2)
Previously on Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant...
Yin Tianzhi paused briefly, shaking his head before continuing:
"A little over a century ago, word spread that the Four Realms had assembled a sizable group once more."
"Rumors also say nearby domains fell under the Supreme True Buddha’s control. They claim that the Future Buddha’s disciple ‘Wisdom Fate,’ though not at Mahayana, has power exceeding typical Great Bodhisattvas thanks to the Tianshang Buddha’s careful guidance... We grew worried for a time, yet oddly, the Supreme True Buddha’s forces haven’t troubled us since—likely wary of the Ruins Master."
"Oh, and the Cloud Sky Realm extended an invitation too, but with you still in seclusion, we turned it down courteously."
"Later, that black fur monster started snatching people, and the cultivators who ventured out have vanished without trace, cutting off most outside news."
Wang Ba’s expression shifted subtly at these words:
"The Future Buddha’s disciple, Wisdom Fate? You’re certain that’s what you heard?"
"Well... I don’t think I misheard. It was a hot topic back then; they say he personally slew a peak Eighth Tier Evil Dragon and tamed a peak Eighth Tier divine beast, outshining disciples of other Buddhas."
Yin Tianzhi thought it over, then shook his head and remarked.
"Unexpectedly, it’s not Junior Brother..."
Wang Ba looked surprised, mulled it briefly, then nodded and instructed:
"Dispatch some from your group to the Four Realms for intel and check the situation."
"Also, try to warn those in the Four Realms; even knowing the Tianshang Buddha nears Cultivation Ascension, they must hold back—there’s trickery afoot."
"Move fast, depart right away."
Noting Wang Ba’s grave look, Yin Tianzhi didn’t hesitate and affirmed solemnly:
"I’ll head there myself!"
With that, he departed.
But as Yin Tianzhi exited, Wang Ba paused, then flung him a Top-Grade Flying Tao Treasure and a Token bearing the Escape and Dissolve Divine Power symbol, while also dispatching Wu Monkey King with some orders.
Wu Monkey King possessed great might, at Eighth Tier late-stage, and excelled in spell battles; with him along, even against that black monster, safe return seemed assured.
As Yin Tianzhi and Wu Monkey King departed, Wang Ba’s face took on a pensive cast.
Right now, he lacked ways to reach the Master of Quiet Cave or Heavenly Monarch Chao, holding only a communication Dao Treasure for Xiahou Demon.
Yet he didn’t know their status; contacting rashly might endanger them.
He could go personally, teleporting via the prior Escape and Dissolve Divine Power mark near Soul Falling, then proceed to the Cloud Sky Realm.
Still, after weighing it, he chose not to venture out probing just yet.
For one, at his current level, facing the Tianshang Buddha again meant certain defeat.
Even gaining outside knowledge wouldn’t help him much.
Secondly, insights from the Realm Sea of Origin now fueled rapid Dao Domain expansion, impossible to hold back.
"Looks like I must depend on my own efforts for now."
Sensing the Dao Domain surging in his Primordial Spirit, Wang Ba wasted no more time.
With a single thought.
His True Spirit body materialized.
It manifested as a Glazed Jade Dragon, matching the one from the Realm Sea of Origin.
He parted his jaws, breathing out a small globe of Water of Origin—just enough for a teacup.
As soon as the Water of Origin emerged, it scattered everywhere, eager to blend into the surroundings.
Throughout the immortal cave, wherever the Water of Origin flowed, countless Spirit Plants sprouted and flourished wildly from the earth...
"What incredible generative power!"
Wang Ba exclaimed in true awe; though this side effect surprised him, he was ready for it.
With a sleeve sweep, a pink rabbit and a white-maned horse-bodied Alien Beast floated into view.
These were Disaster Plague Immortal and Fu Gui, embodiments of rules.
Disaster Plague Immortal’s rank remained mysterious but equaled at least Eighth Tier early-stage, while Fu Gui had advanced to Eighth Tier middle-stage.
The instant these two beasts appeared and spotted the drifting Water of Origin, their gazes burned with intense longing.
Wang Ba let them be, allowing the pink rabbit and white-maned horse-bodied Alien Beast to each gulp some Water of Origin, draining roughly a third of his stock.
Once the Water of Origin settled in their bellies.
Suddenly, the pair of rule embodiments went berserk, crashing downward as myriad rules erupted across their forms.
Disaster Plague Immortal’s rules shone with pure ‘Plague Toxin,’ while Fu Gui’s were intricate, weaving Yin and Yang alongside the Five Elements—all fully manifested.
Bathed in Water of Origin’s nurture, thin membranes formed around each Alien Beast, encasing them.
As leftover Water of Origin spread, Wang Ba’s True Spirit drew it back, reclaiming every stray drop.
At the same time, Wang Ba’s fleshly body settled into cross-legged meditation, eyes gently shut.
A faint Primordial Spirit shadow hovered over his crown, like a devouring black hole.
Above this Black Hole Primordial Spirit.
The Dao Domain bloomed gradually, petal by petal like a lotus.
Yet it failed to hide the vast, tangled web of rules inside.
Beside these rules, the encircling Dao Domain resembled sluggish flesh lagging behind surging sinews and skeleton.
Distinct rules twisted, intertwined, expanded, and stretched visibly...
Every rule Wang Ba grasped in the Realm Sea of Origin’s void now manifested within his Dao Domain.
