Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” Chapter 499: An Enormous Amount of Dao Origin! The Transformation of the True Name Jade Disc
Previously on Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”...
Song Cai commanded the Transaction Dao Principle, alternatively known as the Wealth Dao Principle.
All things across the world could serve as items for trading, encompassing rules, laws, matter, and energy alike. Upon attaining a stage where Dao Principles themselves might be traded with ease, one would stand mere steps away from the Chaos Dominator realm.
Sensing the myriad incredible applications of the Transaction Dao Principle, Song Cai's gaze brimmed with shock.
This Transaction Dao Principle surpassed his wildest expectations in potency. It enabled him to exchange goods with heaven and earth either conditionally or without strings attached, producing effects akin to conjuring objects from nothingness.
He was capable of compelling a trade for someone else's very life, slaying them utterly without leaving any mark!
The Path of Wealth stretched boundless and deep; the greater the riches one amassed, the mightier the strength they wielded!
It struck Song Cai abruptly that his Master too governed the Transaction Dao Principle, and such a grand trading endeavor would generate an enormous influx of Dao Yan Coins. His Master's fortune would soar to inconceivable heights. How formidable would the battle prowess he could deploy become?
Yet this represented only the surface of his Master's true might.
Song Cai stepped down from the Heavenly Dao Platform and turned his sight to the remaining platforms.
Then, he noticed Su Yuan (Abyss) descending from the Heavenly Dao Platform precisely then.Su Yuan (Abyss) emanated the powerful surge of a Dao Venerable aura, evidently having just achieved a breakthrough moments ago.
"Congratulations on advancing, Commander Su!" Song Cai remarked with a grin.
Su Yuan (Abyss) displayed a rare grin in return. "Congratulations all around! Congratulations all around!"
"Shall we exit together? I must report to the Master!"
"Excellent!"
Right as the pair prepared to depart.
Two rays of light pierced skyward from deep within the Heavenly Dao Platform.
They glanced that way and discovered the Void Great Emperor and Star Dust Elder ascending to Dao Venerable at the same instant.
Their breakthrough energies intertwined, their presences holding firm without any shortfall.
Moments passed.
The twin lights faded away, and Voidless along with Star Dust emerged, both offering warm greetings.
"You've made it too?"
"Haha, it's thanks to the Dominator's benevolence!"
The quartet exchanged felicitations and bowed multiple times toward the Seven Stars Dao Palace, each expressing deep thanks for Su Yuan's aid.
The group lingered briefly. Noting no further breakthroughs imminent from the others, they proceeded to exit as one.
Emerging beyond the barrier encircling the Heavenly Dao Platform, they were instantly met by billions of cultivators encircling them. Every gaze held feelings of envy, awe, reverence, and the like.
As they advanced, a roaring chorus of praises crashed over them like ocean swells.
The clamor shook the heavens themselves.
"Congratulations on your triumphant Dao Venerable ascension!"
Song Cai and his companions shared looks before ascending to the Dao Venerable Pavilion in unison.
Following that, Song Cai set off solo, making his initial stop at the Seven Stars Dao Palace for the report.
Seven Stars Dao Palace.
Song Cai presented the enormous haul of Dao Yan Coins from the extensive trades to Su Yuan.
Su Yuan accepted them and scanned with his divine sense. Within lay Dao Yan Coins and Dao Yan Crystals stacked like an entire realm, prompting even Su Yuan to arch a brow in astonishment.
"Master, this expansive deal has produced a total of one hundred and twenty billion times one billion Dao Sources!"
Su Yuan verified the count, finding it accurate down to the four thousand trillion Dao Sources in loose remnants. Truth be told, grasping such a colossal fortune left Su Yuan's palms tingling with warmth.
Su Yuan gestured casually, extracting the four thousand trillion Dao Sources as the scraps and passing them to Song Cai.
"Employ these to manage the Seven Stars Dao Palace. Should you harbor your own plans, feel free to deploy these Dao Sources toward them!"
"Song Cai comprehends!"
Song Cai adopted a determined look.
"Mm, you're dismissed for the time being!"
"Understood!"
Song Cai exited.
"Aligning with a faction truly brings immense advantages. In this instance, I've reaped such staggering riches effortlessly!"
Though Su Yuan would subsequently assist others in sparking their insights individually, that posed no expense. Rather, Su Yuan could claim extra Chaos rest periods as "standard expenditure" from the process, reaping further gains.
Hence, this stood as a pure and absolute boon.
He had anticipated the Miluo Dao Lord might intervene to halt him, yet she refrained, permitting the wealth accumulation.
"Does it stem from the assurance of a Seventeenth-order Fused Dao Venerable?"
Su Yuan ceased musing on the matter.
Currently, armed with this immense resource trove, he was compelled to allocate it wisely. Three avenues presented themselves: the Chaos route tied to the True Name Dao Principle, the Chaos route where a Twelfth-order Fused Dao Principle had already merged, and finally, channeling them to elevate traits!
Su Yuan turned his palm, summoning the True Name Jade Disc into view.
This relic that had journeyed with him through his evolution remained enigmatic and unfathomable as always.
After deliberation, Su Yuan reached a choice.
He summoned with a motion, drawing the vast reservoir of Dao Sources around him into the True Name Jade Disc.
The True Name Jade Disc welcomed them greedily, voraciously consuming the Dao Source Crystals. Each instant, a trillion Dao Sources vanished into the True Name Jade Disc.
Upon hitting one thousand trillion, Su Yuan started to feel eager.
At one billion times one billion, Su Yuan experienced mild surprise.
Once consumption climbed to ten billion times one billion Dao Sources, even Su Yuan sensed a twinge of distress.
Nevertheless, having progressed thus far, he had every incentive to press on.
As the devoured Dao Sources hit one hundred billion times one billion.
The True Name Jade Disc at last stirred with transformation.
The whole True Name Jade Disc shifted hue anew, turning pristine white and translucent. Crucially, the True Name Jade Disc's quality appeared to have elevated yet another notch!
Before, it managed to forge Chaos Traits, though not quite attaining Chaos Dominator stature.
Now, having ingested one hundred billion times one billion Dao Sources, the True Name Jade Disc had fully evolved.
It had risen to the rank of Chaos Dominator Artifact!
The leftover twenty billion times one billion Dao Sources underwent direct refinement into twenty Chaos Jades.
Slabs of jade mirroring the True Name Jade Disc's composition, harboring enigmatic fluids within.
Chaos Jade's efficacy naturally outstripped Dao Sources by far. While Dao Sources might influence Dao Venerables at best, Chaos Jade could impact even Chaos Dominators!
Though Su Yuan hadn't ascended to Chaos Dominator yet, mere contemplation revealed that aids potent against Chaos Dominators were exceedingly scarce, their value outrageously high.
And presently, the True Name Jade Disc could convert Dao Sources to Chaos Jade, thereby reaching Chaos Dominators. This was utterly against the heavens!
The True Name Jade Disc persisted as an support-oriented Dominator Artifact, yet its value rivaled other Dominator Artifact varieties; in fact, it proved even rarer.
Should he cultivate using Chaos Jade now, he could swiftly attain the Chaos Dominator realm!
Precisely then, the True Name Jade Disc relayed a message to him.
[Ding, Dominator Trait activated. Please select one of the following three traits as the Dominator Trait]
Absorbing the True Name Jade Disc's message, Su Yuan felt a touch of surprise.
He examined the options presented by the True Name Jade Disc.
[Dominator of Force]: Grasp the core of every force, establish the basics and expressions of force.
[Dominator of Qi]: Grasp the core of every qi, establish the basics and expressions of qi.
[Dominator of Will]: Grasp the core of every will, establish the basics and expressions of will.
