Chapter 570: Sixty Thousand Years Old, Freedom Killing Supreme Treasure

Chapter 570: Sixty Thousand Years Old, Freedom Killing Supreme Treasure

After choosing to continue, Han Jue entered the Evolution Illusion.

He opened his eyes and arrived in an incomparably dim and mysterious space. Ahead was a red ball of light that shifted between bright and dark, eerie and horrifying.

He saw Zhou Fan.

Zhou Fan was right inside that red ball of light, entangled by black tentacles covered in spikes, with only his Soul remaining.

Where is this…

Han Jue frowned and looked up. This red ball of light was incomparably vast, resembling a Star Domain, permeated with crimson Qi, and no living beings or ghosts could be seen.

He cast his gaze onto Zhou Fan. Those black tentacles didn't look like physical entities; they seemed more like illusions, but they were indeed absorbing Zhou Fan's Divine Soul power.

Just as Han Jue was wondering where this place was, a line of words appeared before his eyes:

[Bliss Purgatory: A Chaos forbidden zone, transformed from the will of an ancient Chaotic Fiendcelestial. The consciousness of those who enter will be immersed in the illusion of bliss, unable to extricate themselves until their Soul and Physical Body are devoured.]

Transformed from an ancient Chaotic Fiendcelestial?

Han Jue's brows furrowed even tighter.

The Evolution Illusion then shattered. He opened his eyes and asked, "Who plotted against Zhou Fan to make him enter the Bliss Purgatory?"

[It requires deducting ten billion years of lifespan. Do you want to continue?]

Continue!

A figure surfaced in Han Jue's mind.

Dark Holy Monarch!

Indeed it was him!

The Chaos powerhouse who had been coveting the Heavenly Dao lately was none other than the Dark Holy Monarch!

This fellow is courting death.

Zhou Fan was transformed from the Dharma idol of the Seven Dao Saint. Wasn't this slapping the Seven Dao Saint in the face?

Judging from the lifespan consumed by the evolution, the Dark Holy Monarch could not possibly be the match of the Seven Dao Saint.

Han Jue set aside his distracting thoughts and continued to Cultivate.

Leaving the Heavenly Dao was truly dangerous. Anyway, Zhou Fan had the Seven Dao Saint as his backing, so there was no need to trouble him to make a move personally.

…

Decades later.

[Detected that you are now sixty thousand years old, and your life has taken another step forward. You have the following choices:]

[One, immediately come out of seclusion, preach the Dao across the heavens, and seize the Heavenly Dao fortune to obtain a great dao fragment.]

[Two, Cultivate in a low profile, form one's own Dao, and stay away from Karma and right-and-wrong to obtain a great dao fragment, a supreme treasure, and a heavenly dao spirit stone.]

Han Jue opened his eyes and couldn't help sighing that time passed really quickly.

Fifty thousand years old felt like just yesterday.

The System was well-behaved this time and didn't force Han Jue into a dilemma.

It's just that the reward was too shabby.

Han Jue silently chose the second option.

[You chose to Cultivate in a low profile and obtained a great dao fragment, a supreme treasure, and a heavenly dao spirit stone.]

[Congratulations on obtaining the Freedom supreme treasure — killing dao token.]

[killing dao token: A Freedom killing supreme treasure. Sacrificing lifespan and Luck can command it to kill enemies. Word is law. It cannot slay living beings who have no Karma with oneself, and it cannot be used outside of combat situations.]

Han Jue raised an eyebrow.

It looks so awesome!

Han Jue immediately took out the killing dao token. This token was different from what he had imagined; it looked more like an unsharpened sword, three feet long, entirely blood-red, with wisps of fluorescent light flowing over it. Holding this token, a terrifying Killing Intent rushed towards him, blowing his black hair into a dance.

Extraordinary!

Han Jue began to bind it as his own.

Fully half a year passed before he successfully subdued the killing dao token.

This was the first time he had exerted so much effort. If it weren't for the System, he might not have been able to subdue this treasure at all, and might even have been devoured by it.

Han Jue immediately entered the Simulation Trial and began to wield this treasure.

Consuming lifespan in the Simulation Trial was fake, so he could squander it recklessly.

Facing the Wu Fa Heavenly Venerate, he sacrificed one trillion years of lifespan, waved the token, and spat out the word "Slay". The Wu Fa Heavenly Venerate instantly turned to ashes on the spot.

So domineering!

Han Jue's heartbeat quickened.

To deal with ordinary Saints, he didn't even need to sacrifice lifespan; he could instantly kill them.

Is this a Freedom killing supreme treasure?

Han Jue's heartbeat quickened. It was equivalent to an alternative book of misfortune!

However, the book of misfortune took a sustained route, while the killing dao token took a domineering route.

The book of misfortune had broader uses and could kill people invisibly, but the killing dao token had to be used in combat. Han Jue couldn't hide in his Taoist temple and use the killing dao token to ambush enemies.

Han Jue began to challenge Ancestor Xitian. Even with the killing dao token, he was miserably killed instantly—this was under the condition that he did not dodge at the very beginning.

"I will directly sacrifice three quadrillion years of lifespan and give it a try!"

Han Jue thought silently, conducted the Simulation Trial again, and directly sacrificed his lifespan.

"Slay!"

Han Jue waved the token and spat out the word. The killing dao token trembled violently in his hand, and red light burst forth.

The aloof Ancestor Xitian in the distance suddenly turned to ashes.

Han Jue was pleasantly surprised.

Did it succeed?

Could he, your father, finally go toe-to-toe with a Great Dao Saint?

Just at this moment, Han Jue saw Ancestor Xitian's figure recondense and then spit out a single word: "Slay."

Han Jue dropped dead on the spot.

He didn't even have a shred of resistance!

Han Jue opened his eyes with a lingering fear on his face.

"I must never provoke Ancestor Xitian. Otherwise, even by relying on the Freedom supreme treasure and sacrificing all my lifespan, I still cannot kill him."

Han Jue reined in his mentality.

He had almost grown arrogant.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude towards Ancestor Xitian.

Although the Old Ancestor didn't know it, he had always inspired and disciplined Han Jue.

Truly a Saint!

Han Jue took out a heavenly dao spirit stone, and a bold idea suddenly arose in him.

How about not upgrading the book of misfortune this time, but upgrading the killing dao token instead?

He tried it immediately.

[Do not upgrade the killing dao token. Once this treasure is upgraded to the Great Dao level, it will backfire on you and give birth to a great dao spirit.]

Seeing this suddenly popped-out line of text, Han Jue was so frightened that he stopped.

He almost flipped over!

A Magic Treasure can even form a spirit?

Han Jue had no choice but to honestly upgrade the book of misfortune.

In the end, the book of misfortune was upgraded from a heavenly dao supreme treasure to a Freedom Spirit Treasure.

Holding the book of misfortune, Han Jue could clearly feel that aura of misfortune; it was extremely intense.

Unknowingly, he had nurtured an extremely terrifying evil object.

"Should I curse a Saint to death to liven things up?"

Han Jue had another thought.

Forget it.

Lest it provoke another Immeasurable Calamity. Things were quite good right now; the Saints didn't provoke him, and they could also maintain the Heavenly Dao order and protect the Immortal Realm.

If the Saints didn't manage the Heavenly Dao, how could Han Jue Cultivate with peace of mind?

Whether someone was an enemy or a friend could not be simply judged.

Han Jue put away the book of misfortune, perked up his spirits, and continued to Cultivate.

He was getting closer and closer to the Late Stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

He was confident of making a Breakthrough within ten thousand years!

After that, he would reach Grand Unity Golden Immortal Perfection within one hundred thousand years of age!

This speed of cultivation was alright!

…

Thirty-Third Heaven, Buddhist Daoist temple.

Inside the hall, Qiu Xilai sat cross-legged on a lotus seat, surrounded by golden light that formed a pillar of light, looking sacred and solemn.

A light shadow appeared in front of Qiu Xilai.

"I can feel that Han Jue has grown stronger again."

The spirit of the heavenly dao said in a deep voice, its tone filled with unease.

Qiu Xilai didn't even open his eyes as he said, "Not surprising. His Aptitude is outrageous to begin with. Moreover, I currently have no way to deal with him. Let's wait until I merge with the Dao."

The spirit of the heavenly dao said, "Even if you merge with the Dao, you might not be his match, unless…"

"Unless what?"

"Unless you obtain the Dao Ancestor's power."

"The Dao Ancestor has been missing for a long time. Do you know where he is?"

"I do not know, but I know his Three-Corpse Clones. If you can obtain even one of them, you can easily slay Han Jue."
