Chapter 526: The Heavenly Dao Has a Spirit, Yama is Shocked [monthly vote Requested]

"Hmph, primordial violet qi. Just how many strands of primordial violet qi do you Saints actually have? I only came here to repay the Karma of the Demon Race, not to obtain your primordial violet qi. Let this matter end here."

Thousand Mad Demon shook his head and spoke with a resolute tone.

The Saint fell silent and said no more.

After Thousand Mad Demon left, the dark clouds looming over the Hundred Peaks Immortal River suddenly dispersed.

Han Jue watched him leave and did not make a move either.

Since the other party was sensible, he would let it go.

Han Jue wasn't afraid of the other party attacking anyway. The Dao Field's Formation had already been upgraded to the Free and Unfettered Saint level; whom should he fear?

"After the Three Pure Ancestors were defeated, someone still dares to invade? The opponent is a Pseudo-Saint and can't be someone without experience. There must be someone plotting behind the scenes, offering something that made him willing to take such a risk."

Han Jue thought silently.

The only thing that could move a Pseudo-Saint was primordial violet qi.

Could it be that the Saints were swindling people again?

Let's calculate!

Han Jue immediately used the System to deduce: "I want to know who sent Thousand Mad Demon here."

[4 billion years of lifespan will be deducted. Do you wish to continue?]

Continue!

A figure then emerged in Han Jue's mind.

It was him!

Qiu Xilai!

Han Jue frowned. On the surface, he was on good terms with Qiu Xilai. Why was Qiu Xilai so impatiently plotting against him?

Based on his understanding of Qiu Xilai, the man was not as reckless as he appeared on the surface.

"I want to know why Qiu Xilai told Thousand Mad Demon to come find trouble with me."

[10 billion years of lifespan will be deducted. Do you wish to continue?]

Ten billion years of lifespan!

This was no longer the price of a Heavenly Dao Sage!

Han Jue's interest was piqued. Could there be a new enemy?

He chose to continue!

He subsequently entered the Evolution Illusion.

This was Qiu Xilai's Dao Field. Qiu Xilai, whose body resembled a golden Buddha, sat motionless like a divine statue.

Han Jue landed in the hall and looked at Qiu Xilai.

It had to be said that Qiu Xilai's image was truly holy. At first glance, it was hard to believe he was an evil existence; he seemed to represent the justice of great benevolence and Divine Might.

Qiu Xilai suddenly opened his eyes.

He asked, "Who is it?"

Han Jue looked around but saw no one else. He couldn't help but be startled. Could Qiu Xilai be talking to him?

That would be far too terrifying!

Qiu Xilai frowned and said, "This fluctuation of aura… No, it's not an aura, but Heavenly Dao fortune."

His expression immediately shifted as he asked in shock, "Heavenly Dao? Dao Ancestor?"

An indifferent voice rang out: "An anomaly has appeared in the Heavenly Dao. I hope the Saint can save the Heavenly Dao."

Han Jue was stunned. What on earth?

The Heavenly Dao?

Qiu Xilai's brow furrowed deeply as he asked, "Are you the Heavenly Dao or the Dao Ancestor?"

"All things can have spirits; why can't the Heavenly Dao? The Dao Ancestor has long since departed. The Heavenly Dao is the Heavenly Dao."

The indifferent voice rang out again, causing Qiu Xilai's expression to change.

Han Jue was also startled.

If the Heavenly Dao had sentience, wouldn't that be a huge problem?

Why was the Heavenly Dao considered perfectly impartial?

Precisely because the Heavenly Dao was emotionless and would not favor anyone.

Now that the Heavenly Dao had its own sentience, wouldn't it easily develop its own emotions and judgments?

Not just Han Jue, even Qiu Xilai felt his skin crawl.

The reason they, the Saints, stood so high and mighty was that the Heavenly Dao was like an empty shell that would not control them.

Now… Qiu Xilai's face turned grim as he asked, "What do you want to do?"

The Heavenly Dao replied, "Eliminate the anomaly and restore order."

"Who is the anomaly?"

"The newly ascended Saint, Han Jue."

"The Dao Ancestor said he was a variable…"

"A variable is an anomaly. Because of him, the previous Immeasurable Calamity ended very quickly."

Qiu Xilai's face turned ashen.

At this point, the scene shattered.

Han Jue's consciousness returned to reality, his mind in disarray.

"I want to know if the Heavenly Dao has truly birthed sentience."

[10 billion years of lifespan will be deducted. Do you wish to continue?]

Continue!

[Yes]

Han Jue's heart went cold.

"Can the Heavenly Dao kill me?"

[10 billion years of lifespan will be deducted. Do you wish to continue?]

Continue!

[The Heavenly Dao currently does not possess the ability to attack autonomously; it can only communicate with living beings.]

So that was how it was.

No wonder it sought out Qiu Xilai.

Han Jue breathed a sigh of relief.

"Does Qiu Xilai suspect that I am the Dark Forbidden Master?"

[4 billion years of lifespan will be deducted. Do you wish to continue?]

Continue!

[Yes]

Damn it!

Han Jue frowned, suddenly feeling the urge to kill Qiu Xilai.

But on second thought, even if Qiu Xilai thought so, the other Saints might not believe it.

Besides, even if all the Saints believed it, what could they do to him?

As long as Han Jue did not leave the Dao Field, the Saints and the Heavenly Dao could not harm him!

"How annoying. I don't want to provoke anyone, yet people always come looking for trouble."

Han Jue sighed helplessly.

He would focus on Cultivating and surpass the Heavenly Dao as soon as possible. When that time came, he would capture the Heavenly Dao and keep it as a pet!

…Underworld, Netherworld.

Yang Tiandong sat in the hall, yawning out of boredom.

Two rows of ghost guards stood motionless. Black and White Impermanence escorted in another soul that had committed sins.

Those who could enter the hall for interrogation were all those who had committed sins and had heavy Karma during their lives; ordinary beings would go directly to the Bridge of Helplessness upon death.

Yang Tiandong looked at the soul in the hall and was momentarily stunned.

The soul being escorted by Black and White Impermanence was none other than Han Jue's son, Han Tuo.

Yang Tiandong was one of the few who had seen Han Jue's true appearance. Looking at Han Tuo's handsome face, he felt for a moment as if he were seeing Han Jue.

Han Jue's appearance was so extraordinary that no second person in the world could resemble him.

Yang Tiandong frowned and asked, "What is your name? State your origin."

Han Tuo's expression was grim as he said in a deep voice, "My name is Han Tuo, born of the Human Race. My lifespan has not reached its end; rather, someone used a Spell to extract my soul and cast it into the Underworld."

Yang Tiandong asked, "What are your parents' names?"

Han Tuo hesitated for a moment before saying, "My father is named Han Jue, and my mother is named Qing Luaner. Yama, I am truly innocent. My lifespan still remains. I have learned that in my situation, the Underworld should not accept my case!"

After so many years, his parents were long dead, so it was fine to say it.

White Impermanence scolded, "Impudent! You dare to give orders to King Yama?"

"Shut up!"

Yang Tiandong slammed the table and stood up, shouting angrily, causing Black and White Impermanence and Han Tuo to tremble.

"Your father's name is Han Jue… How is that possible!"

Yang Tiandong's expression shifted between shock and disbelief.

What a coincidence!

This youth looked extremely similar to Han Jue and had the same surname… Yang Tiandong pinched his fingers to deduce but found that he could not calculate the Karma of Han Tuo's father at all.

Could it be… Yang Tiandong said in a deep voice, "Black and White Impermanence, withdraw!"

Hearing this, Black and White Impermanence exchanged glances and hurriedly floated out of the hall.

Han Tuo was nervous, his brow furrowed, not knowing why Yang Tiandong was so agitated.

Yang Tiandong asked, "Can you tell me about your parents?"

Han Tuo fell silent.

Since childhood, he had felt his parents were extraordinary, especially his mother, who had taught him a Body Refining technique to rise to power. To this day, he believed that he owed everything he had to that Body Refining technique.

With no other choice, Han Tuo could only tell the truth; otherwise, he would enter Reincarnation, and everything would turn to mist.

He still had a grudge to settle!

He could not let things end like this!

Thus, Han Tuo began telling his story from when he was a child.

The more Yang Tiandong listened, the more shocked he became.

This Han Jue's Heart-Nature was far too similar to his Master's.

Equally cautious… equally prudent!
