Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” Chapter 509: True Name Dao Record

Su Yuan ventured into the Miluo Treasury, confronting its lethal guardian intent before gaining entry with authenticated permission from the Miluo Dao Lord. He inspected the eighty-one treasures within a nine-story pagoda, revealing their immense powers through the True Name Dao Principle, including the primordial Source of Thunder and the risky Dream Crystal. Guided by his True Name Jade Disc, Su Yuan claimed the Book of Replication, which merged into his True Spirit and transformed into the True Name Dao Record, encompassing countless single and fused Dao Principles.

"I've had close, personal contact with the Miluo Dao Lord, intercepting a strand of her aura right then and there. Through that, I gained direct knowledge of her fused Dao Principle."

A flash of understanding struck Su Yuan.

Once more, he examined the various fused Dao Principles listed in the tome and noticed that numerous ones were the inherent fused Dao Principles embedded in the treasures mentioned earlier.

For instance, the Dream Crystal and Source of Thunder that he'd encountered previously; the True Name Treasure Record had extracted their essences before.

Having advanced to the True Name Dao Record now, it unraveled the fused Dao Principles inside these two items and inscribed them straight away, letting Su Yuan inspect them whenever he wished!

By this means, Su Yuan might as well have claimed these treasures for himself. At minimum, he could now delve into their fused Dao Principles without restraint.

Yet these represented only two such items. Every other treasure from the vault was cataloged in the True Name Dao Record. Furthermore, the True Name Dao Record had earlier captured countless treasures from the Miluo Dao Court, compiling an ocean of fused Dao Principle insights.

It was like an immortal codex paving the path straight to Chaos Dominator realm, brimming with colossal amounts of inheritance wisdom!

He might even draw on these fused Dao Principle details to manifest such treasures from nothing.

Su Yuan had grasped the Dominator Trait from the Dominator of Will, which let him shape and control the core of Dao comprehensions!

Paired with the True Name Dao Record, this power could be fully realized to its utmost!

"I can craft these fused Dao Principle treasures on the spot, emerging as the unparalleled Treasure Refinement Master above all others!"

The benefits were utterly overwhelming!

Su Yuan could scarcely credit it himself.

A spark ignited in Su Yuan's gaze. With one stride, his form disappeared in an instant, leaving no sign behind.

His next appearance placed him squarely in his personal abode.

In a blink, he plunged straight into the heart of the Nine Stars Land.

Carving through the void, he forged an isolated realm shielded completely from any interference. Afterward, Su Yuan produced a vast array of resources.

Items like Wind Breath Amber infused with the Wind Dao Principle of Dao Venerable rank, plus Time-Space Rings holding the essence of Time and Space.

All these treasures reached Dao Venerable caliber. They included Su Yuan's earlier hoards, along with the inheritances from the five deceased Dao Venerables of the Blood Moon Dao Court.

In the past, Su Yuan had overlooked these because they served no purpose for him.

However, armed now with the Creation Dao Principle, the Dominator of Will, and the True Name Dao Record, Su Yuan planned to try forging a fused Dao treasure!

He avoided jumping into elaborate fused Dao treasures, opting first for a basic two-fused Dao Principle.

Drawing forth the Heaven-Earth Cauldron, Su Yuan flung in the two essential components—one bearing the Wind Dao Principle, the other the Thunder Dao Principle—into its depths.

Right away, Creative Fire blazed inside the cauldron, commencing the smelting of the pair of materials.

Guided by the Creative Power and the Dominator of Will, the materials slowly melted down into twin pools of fluid. Thick streams of Dao Principle might swirled within the fluids.

Next, Su Yuan pulled out the stored fused Dao Principle blueprint from the True Name Dao Record and merged it with the two fluid pools.

Through the Dominator of Will's command, the Dao Principle energies in the liquids slowly blended with the blueprint, forming a true two-fused Dao Principle. As the Dao Principles merged, the materials fused seamlessly too.

Su Yuan molded the artifact into wing-like forms, etching a unique Dao Principle mystic art upon them. Thus, whoever wielded them could activate the art without needing to grasp it first.

As soon as the artifact completed, thunderous winds howled from the wings, radiating the presence of a second-order Dao Venerable treasure. What's more, its quality stood out as top-tier even among two-fused Dao artifacts!

Joy lit up Su Yuan's features. "It truly worked!"

Su Yuan gazed at the fused Dao treasure clutched in his grasp. For any second-order Dao Venerable focused on the Wind-Thunder fused Dao Principle, it would prove a flawless companion. With it, they could wield strength rivaling a third-order Dao Venerable!

Such was the terror of a fused Dao treasure!

In the Chaos originally, no man-made fused Dao treasures existed; all arose from nature. Yet Su Yuan had now demolished that age-old belief!

Should he forge a seventeenth-order fused Dao treasure for the Miluo Dao Lord, her might would surge to new heights, ranking her among the scarce eighteenth-order fighters in Chaos!

Su Yuan's thoughts churned. He withdrew twelve varieties of resources, exactly those needed for the twelve Dao Principles in his personal twelfth-order fused Dao Principle.

Of course, the True Name Dao Record had duly archived his own fused Dao Principle.

Thus, he could craft a fused Dao treasure made just for him.

Time passed unhurriedly.

Through his careful forging, a twelfth-order fused Dao treasure crafted solely for him emerged triumphantly.

The item he shaped was a soaring blade. He wove in his old natal treasure, the Nine Stars Linked Pearl Sword, forging a supreme artifact bound to his blood and infused with his cultivation methods. Its rank soared to the pinnacle!

Wielding this blade, Su Yuan believed he could erupt with force two or three tiers beyond his prior limits!

Moreover, since his twelfth-order flawlessly merged Dao Principle already boasted exceptional potency, Su Yuan sensed his overall power had rocketed to inconceivable heights.

"Perfect, utterly perfect!"

Su Yuan contemplated his creation, his spirit brimming with thrill.

He itched to try out the exact level of might he could now display.

Right then, he at last checked the updates from beyond. He found that the Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable had earlier messaged him for help. He'd simply been absorbed in the forging and missed it till now.

Let us turn back the clock to a few hundred breaths prior.

Nine Stars Land.

Edge of the Miluo Territory.

The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable stood vigil at the frontier, ever watchful for foe incursions.

Since they'd seized this land so recently, stability remained elusive.

In that instant.

A tremendous, suffocating presence swiftly bore down from afar. The force of this presence crashed right into the city barrier.

Cracks spiderwebbed across the barrier at once, spreading like wildfire!

The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable's eyes narrowed. He invoked his Soul-Constraining Dao Principle, summoning scores of "spirit bodies" that soared to the barrier. Every "spirit body" projected Dao Venerable-level force.

The spirit bodies all pushed against the barrier together, countering the onrushing presence.

"Oh? Impressive, you've got talent!"

A distant voice drew nearer swiftly.

The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable eyed the source with utmost seriousness.

There, a youth mounted on a blaze of fire raced toward them.

He halted promptly, positioning himself beyond the barrier.

The inferno under the youth's soles pulsed with a shocking vibe.

Cautiously, the Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable probed with his divine sense. At once, a scorching pain assailed his sense, racing back through the probe.

He yanked back his sense immediately. The blistering heat wasn't imaginary; a fragment of his sense had vaporized outright.

The youth scoffed mockingly. "Overestimating your capabilities!"

The Soul-Constraining Dao Venerable's face grew stern. "You are Huo Linzi!"

"Oh? You recognize This Sovereign's identity!" The youth gave a faint grin and declared, "Your Miluo Dao Court has grown too bold, seizing lands across seven Chaos Kingdoms. Do you not fear swallowing more than you can handle? This Sovereign is fair-minded. Surrender territory equal to five Chaos Kingdoms. In return, I'll offer you recompense!"
