Chapter 688: Breakthrough! Perfection!

"Then how do you know it wasn't a Buddhist scheme, offering you an opportunity to become a Buddha?" Han Jue asked, unconvinced by Chu Shiren's words.

Chu Shiren replied, "I grew stronger because of that opportunity, and only later, by chance, did I join the Buddhist sect. I didn't join them immediately after receiving the opportunity."

Han Jue remained silent.

Chu Shiren said earnestly, "Grandmaster, I'll soon attain the Quasi-Saint realm. Please let me go out. You've nurtured us for so long; surely you don't just raise us for nothing. You must need our help. Once I attain Sainthood in the Chaos, I will surely return to lead the Hidden Sect to its peak. What you said is right: to eliminate suffering in the world, it's not as simple as abolishing cultivation. Instead, we need absolute power to suppress all greed!"

"I am willing to follow Grandmaster, ascend to the strongest position, and create a truly peaceful and beautiful world!"

His values instantly sublimated.

Han Jue was speechless. "Say what you will, but why are you flattering me so much?"

He said, "Since that's the case, then go. I'm just worried that the Chaos is too dangerous. In the future, if all my disciples go to the Chaos and encounter trouble, I won't be able to save each and every one of them."

Chu Shiren was touched and said earnestly, "Don't worry, Grandmaster. I will never be a burden to you. Besides, I won't flaunt my treasures or compete with others, so I generally won't encounter danger. Even if I do, I can handle it on my own."

With nothing more to say, Han Jue told Chu Shiren to prepare.

Fortunately, no other direct disciples wanted to leave with Chu Shiren.

That day, Han Jue sent Chu Shiren away.

After checking the Immortal World and his emails, Han Jue once again entered cultivation… Two thousand seven hundred and thirty-one years later.

Han Jue finally broke through!

[Name: Han Jue]

[Lifespan: 234841 / 9407, 9999, 9999, 9999, 9999, 9999, 9999]

[Race: Primordial Fiendgod (Boundless Emperor)]

[Cultivation: Perfect Primordial Chaos Realm (Perfect Saint)]

[Cultivation Method: Primordial Samsara Grand Dao (Grand Dao level), Zhou Tian Body Tempering Method]

[Grand Dao: Grand Dao of Life and Death, Grand Dao of Karma, Grand Dao of Extreme Origin]

… Watching his long string of lifespan, Han Jue felt pleased.

When he broke through to a Grand Dao Saint, his lifespan would surely gain two more digits. Just thinking about it felt great.

Han Jue continued to consolidate his cultivation.

It took a full fifty years for his cultivation to completely stabilize.

Han Jue did not improve his divine powers but instead checked his emails.

[Your friend, Evil Heavenly Emperor, was attacked by your enemy, Jade Bodhi, and suffered severe injuries.]

[Your son, Han Tuo, was suppressed by your enemy, Jade Bodhi, and his will was forcibly erased.]

[Your disciple, Zhou Fan, merged with the Grand Dao Pagoda, and his physical body transformed into a Grand Dao Body, greatly increasing his luck.]

[Your friend, Pan Xin, was afflicted by a mysterious curse.]

[Your grand-disciple, Chu Shiren, obtained a Chaos Relic, and his Dao cultivation greatly increased.]

[Your friend, Peacock Divine Monarch, was attacked by your enemy, the Cursed Fiendgod.]

[Your friend, Empress Houtu, revived the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and the Witch Race's luck greatly increased.]

… Jade Bodhi!

Very good!

It's you!

Han Jue took out the Book of Misfortune and immediately began to curse.

Having just broken through, killing an enemy to celebrate was a good thing.

He wasn't afraid of his identity being exposed. If other Grand Dao Saints guessed it, it would just serve to deter them from constantly targeting Han Jue's close ones.

Five days later.

Han Jue's lifespan began to rapidly decline.

On the other side.

In a brightly lit hall, majestic Buddha statues stood, their height immeasurable.

On a circular platform, two old Daoists sat in meditation.

They were Jade Bodhi and Jieyin.

Jieyin frowned and asked, "He's still cursing?"

Jade Bodhi gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, the power of the curse suddenly intensified."

Hearing this, Jieyin sighed and said, "You had to scheme against the Heavenly Court. Didn't you consider that if the Heavenly Court had no backing, how could the Evil Heavenly Emperor rise? The previous Karma Heaven, did you really think it had no connection to the Heavenly Court?"

"The Dark Forbidden Lord is very likely the existence behind Han Jue. Han Jue cares about the Evil Heavenly Emperor, and among the Immortals and Gods you captured is Han Jue's son. How could Han Jue not hate you?"

Jade Bodhi's face was grim. "How was I to know Han Jue had such great influence over the Dark Forbidden Lord?"

Back then, when he knew Han Jue, Han Jue was like an ant. How many years had it been since then?

Another strong wave of curse power struck, almost drowning Jade Bodhi's will.

Jieyin also felt it, and his expression changed drastically.

Damn it!

How could it be so strong?

It was much stronger than the last time he cursed Zhunti!

Could it be that the Dark Forbidden Lord was also getting stronger, or had he found more sacrificial beings?

Jade Bodhi asked in a deep voice, "What should we do? I feel like I can't hold on!"

Jieyin said, "Be direct. Self-destruct. I will preserve a trace of your primordial spirit and revive you and Zhunti when the Grand Dao Immeasurable Tribulation descends!"

Jade Bodhi felt unwilling.

He never expected things to suddenly escalate to this point.

"Alright!"

Jade Bodhi readily agreed, directly destroying his body and soul, leaving only a wisp of his remnant soul for Jieyin… [Your enemy, Jade Bodhi, self-destructed his Dao cultivation due to your curse, leaving only a wisp of his remnant soul.]

When Han Jue saw this email, the power of the curse also fell flat.

That fast?

I only consumed less than ten billion years of lifespan!

Han Jue inexplicably had a misconception that he had become much stronger.

But then he thought, it must be because the other party had experience.

But why couldn't he continue cursing when only a wisp of remnant soul remained?

Could it be that the other party used some secret technique?

Or perhaps this was what a Grand Dao Saint was: as long as a breath remained, they would be immortal.

Then how was Dao Buvang killed by Ancestor Xitian before?

No matter what, Jade Bodhi wouldn't be able to cause trouble again for a short time.

Han Jue stopped thinking and began to comprehend divine powers.

On the other side.

Inside a mysterious palace.

Han Tuo and Yi Tian were imprisoned in a cell, surrounded by hundreds of Immortals and Gods.

Yi Tian said mockingly, "Brother, let's make a bet. Will Jade Bodhi die an unnatural death this time?"

Han Tuo rolled his eyes and said, "Do you really think we're that lucky every time?"

Yi Tian shook his head and said, "It's not luck. I think, in the dark, there's a transcendent existence protecting us. Even a Grand Dao Saint is no match for it. You can guess who it might be."

Hearing this, Han Tuo immediately thought of Han Jue.

But he wasn't sure.

Was Han Jue really that strong?

Last time he dreamt, Han Jue repeatedly warned him that he could only rely on himself, so he had to be careful.

This behavior didn't seem like that of a powerful existence who doted on its juniors.

Han Tuo smiled helplessly. What was he thinking?

If he really believed Yi Tian's nonsense, they were still prisoners now, and whether they could survive was still up in the air.

Just then, a powerful aura swept in from the darkness outside the cage, stirring up a strong wind.

The Immortals and Gods were startled and stood up, only to see a figure appear before the cage, waving his hand and directly destroying the cage's restriction.

It was the Evil Heavenly Emperor!

"Your Majesty!"

The Immortals and Gods were pleasantly surprised.

Han Tuo's expression was strange. Yi Tian patted his shoulder and smiled, "See? I guessed right. I just don't know who has such great influence."
