Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1469 - 681: Origin Returns, Evolution of the Void Realm (Part 2)
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
These natural Dao patterns encompass myriad laws such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, space, and time. They slowly flow, appear, and disappear, exuding an ancient and sacred aura, making the laws of the entire Void Realm increasingly perfected and stable, and enabling cultivators to comprehend the Dao with greater ease.
Elemental phenomena continued without interruption: spiritual rain poured down from the sky, washing away mundane dust and nourishing Dao Foundations; seven-colored auspicious clouds floated across the sky, with celestial cranes dancing and spiritual deer roaming on them, their cries echoing in all directions;
Within the void, the vague sound of the Dao’s chant arose, nourishing the Divine Soul like a heavenly tune; there also appeared the silhouettes of innate Spirit Treasures flickering within pillars of origin light, as if nurturing new life.
The Void Realm, once devoured and oppressed by the Tree of Eternal Life, broke free from decay and desolation in the instant of origin return, ushering in unprecedented revival and prosperity. Origin replete, spiritual energy surged, the continent expanded, Dao patterns spread, all things renewed, and the entire Void Realm transformed towards greater strength and perfection.
"What’s happening? What exactly is going on?"
"Yes, wasn’t the Void Realm’s spiritual energy revival said to have ended completely? Why is this happening?"
"Could there be more spiritual energy revival beyond the Void Realm’s limit?"
Numerous Void Realm cultivators were stunned, as they naturally saw various phenomena occurring across the world.
According to previous estimations, nearly all high-tier cultivators believed that the last spiritual energy revival in the Void Realm had already occurred, as the spiritual energy concentration had reached levels akin to the Ancient Era.
But now, the spiritual energy concentration could rise again, truly unbelievable.
This simply begins to surpass any era in the Void Realm, reaching unprecedented heights.
"Extremes meet, this is the principle of extremes meeting. Our Void Realm has remained dormant for so many years perhaps only to accumulate power to reach greater heights."
"If that is the case, then the cultivators born in our era have encountered the best opportunity, a cultivation environment never encountered by ancient-era cultivators."
"But why is this happening? Is something happening secretly that we cannot understand? It’s truly strange."
"Haha, what does it matter? There are countless inexplicable things in this world, and this is merely one of them."
"That’s right. We don’t need to understand the reasons, just knowing that these phenomena immensely benefit us is entirely sufficient."
"If the Void Realm continues to evolve like this, we all have significant hopes for advancing to Refining Void, even Integration, and perhaps even becoming Immortal isn’t impossible."
Many cultivators discussed fervently.
Each felt an immense joy.
They sensed the Void Realm brimming with infinite vitality, as if the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around them had come to life.
This also allowed their cultivation to progress swiftly, even breaking through bottlenecks became much easier.
No matter if they stayed in ordinary places, it was akin to Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands before.
This was a tremendous benefit to all cultivators.
However, to demons concealed in various places in the Void Realm, it was a catastrophe.
"What on earth is happening? Why do I suddenly feel that the suppression of Heaven and Earth on us has greatly intensified?"
"This is not an illusion, it seems the Void Realm’s Heavenly Dao has fully revived, just like when we first began invading the Void Realm, being targeted by the Heavenly Dao."
"Yes, in the midst of it all, we seem to be locked onto by the Void Realm’s Heavenly Dao. What exactly is going on?"
"Wait, I sense as if I have lost connection with those great ones, as if they were killed, but how is this possible?"
"Yes, those great ones should be immortal, even numerous Mahayana cultivators from the Ancient Era joining forces couldn’t kill them. How could they die?"
"The problem is we indeed lost contact with them. This is unprecedented and unheard of."
"Finished, it’s completely finished. Surely, something happened causing those great ones to have issues, so that the Void Realm’s Heavenly Dao fully revived."
"We must immediately leave the Void Realm, or we’ll be locked by the Heavenly Dao with nowhere to escape."
"It’s too late, we were already locked by the Heavenly Dao long ago."
Numerous ancient demons discussed fervently, their faces changing drastically, ashen.
At this moment, they felt catastrophe upon them.
In the midst of it all, they were locked onto by terrifying energy, like being locked by a Celestial Tribulation.
No matter where they fled, it was futile.
As long as they were within the Void Realm, it was impossible to escape.
Rumbling~~
As the Void Realm revived and overflowed with origin, more majestic Heaven’s mighty power quietly descended——the Void Realm Heavenly Dao, fully revived with the return of origin!
The originally incomplete Heavenly Dao will, under the nourishment of endless innate origin, reformed and emitted supreme pressure reigning over all Dao, shrouding the entire Void Realm.
With the awakening of the Heavenly Dao, the first in its sights were those ancient demons hidden across the Void Realm, borrowing the power of the Demon Tree.
Upon the heavens, the originally clear light condensed abruptly, replaced by gold-colored thunder clouds rolling and roaring, countless golden thunder arcs shuttled and collided in the clouds, producing deafening roars, which were the Heavenly Dao’s wrath, the power of the celestial punishment to purify evil.
Within the golden thunder arcs, purer Heavenly Dao laws and power of origin were contained, far more domineering than any worldly thunder technique, specifically overcoming all demons and evils.
"Boom——!!!"
The first golden thunder punishment thunderously fell, directly targeting the extreme north of the Void Realm’s deep sea—there lay an upper-tier demon that had lived for countless ages, which had devoured countless cultivators and refined the life force of half a continent using the evil power of the Tree of Eternal Life, always hidden, scheming to profit after the Demon Tree controlled heaven and earth.
The golden thunder pillar, like a reversed celestial river, instantly penetrated the sea demon’s restriction, struck upon the ancient demon’s body, causing it to emit a mournful demon howl, its body crumbling inch by inch amidst the golden thunder punishment, its demon core and remnant soul thoroughly purified by the thunder power, leaving no trace behind.
Immediately, golden thunder punishments fell like rain, accurately locking onto upper-tier demons hidden throughout the Void Realm: the Nine-tailed Demon Fox deep in the barren forest, the Mystical Water Demon Jiao in the deep-sea secret realm, the Bone-corroding Demon Commander in the extreme western desert, the Blood-winged Demon Peng above the clouds...
These demons were all profound cultivators, wicked in deeds, once reliant on the Tree of Eternal Life, they harmed countless lives and plundered resources. Now without the protection of the Demon Tree, and with the Heavenly Dao revival, they were all locked by the Heavenly Dao thunder punishment.
Each golden thunder punishment that fell was accompanied by the demons’ mournful wails.
Where the thunder power went, the demons’ techniques, bodies, and souls were all burned and purified, even if an upper-tier demon attempted to activate its life-bound demon treasure and tear through the void to escape, it was locked by the Heavenly Dao will, a more powerful golden thunder punishment followed swiftly, utterly annihilating it.
Those demons hidden in secret realms, relying on evil techniques to conceal themselves, were also tracked by Heavenly Dao patterns, the thunder punishment penetrated the barriers of secret realms, uprooting them completely, purifying without a trace.
"The might of the Heavenly Dao, truly lives up to its name."
This scene, naturally perceived in detail by Jiang Fan’s Primordial Spirit.
For his Primordial Spirit enveloped every corner of the Void Realm.
Like a Heavenly Dao perspective, he monitored all locations within the Void Realm.
As long as one was in the Void Realm, it was impossible to escape his perception.
At this moment, he understood how powerful the Heavenly Dao of the Void Realm was during its prime.
Any demon attempting to infiltrate the Void Realm would be detected by the Heavenly Dao, with a celestial thunder descending swiftly to obliterate the intruder.
However, many ancient demons managed to infiltrate the Void Realm’s Heavenly Dao without being exterminated, because the Heavenly Dao of the Void Realm had long been invaded by peculiar beings.
These peculiars suppressed the Void Realm Heavenly Dao’s power, causing its power to malfunction.
This is why powerful demons could act wantonly in the Void Realm.
