Chapter 873: I Surpass the Free and Unfettered Saint

After hearing Peerless Jiang's words, Liu Bei fell into deep thought.

Han Jue had already promised him that he would be the one to build this Universe in the future, so he would think about this issue whenever he was free.

It had to be said that Peerless Jiang's suggestion was quite good.

No one would be allowed to return to the Lower Realm after Ascension; this would prevent the strong from monopolizing cultivation resources and harming future generations.

Liu Bei said, "I think it's feasible. We can enforce Undergoing Tribulation; upon reaching a certain Realm, one must undergo a tribulation."

Peerless Jiang smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad."

The reason he befriended Liu Bei was not just because this Universe belonged to Liu Bei, but also because Liu Bei's personality made him feel comfortable, even thinking of him as a fellow traveler on the Dao.

The more the two talked, the more excited they became.

At the same time.

Outside the Star Universe, billowing black mist was surging over, as if darkness was swallowing space, which was extremely terrifying.

Inside the Daoist temple of the Third Dojo.

Han Jue had not yet entered a state of cultivation when he noticed the black mist outside the Universe.

With one glance, he saw that within the black mist were countless vengeful spirits, silently roaring.

Inauspicious Evil Spirits?

After reaching the Great Dao Supreme Realm, those invisible Inauspicious Evil Spirits had nowhere to hide in Han Jue's eyes.

Hmm?

Han Jue suddenly spotted a person among the Inauspicious Evil Spirits. He was different from the others; he possessed dharmic power, and his life force was hidden deep within his soul.

This person seemed to be the leader of the Inauspicious Evil Spirits, with a cultivation at the Early Stage of the Free Primal Chaos Realm, which wasn't considered powerful.

Han Jue didn't make a move, as he could use the Inauspicious Evil Spirits as a whetstone for Peerless Jiang.

Constant bitter cultivation could easily lead to stagnation; experiencing combat once in a while was also a good thing.

Not long after, Peerless Jiang and Liu Bei sensed the enemy attack and arrived outside the Star Universe.

Peerless Jiang frowned. This wasn't the first time he had encountered Inauspicious Evil Spirits. The dense inauspicious aura within the black mist made him very uneasy.

Liu Bei was the same.

Whenever they had encountered Inauspicious Evil Spirits before, they had chosen to flee, so their expressions were now extremely unsightly.

"What should we do?"

Peerless Jiang asked. He wanted to flee, but since the two had just been discussing how to build the Universe, he felt quite ashamed.

Liu Bei said, "Let's fight. No matter where we go, we might encounter Inauspicious Evil Spirits, unless it's a powerful expert's Domain."

He took a deep breath, not worried at all, since Han Jue was there.

However, Han Jue hadn't acted yet, perhaps because he was in seclusion, so Liu Bei could only hold them off himself for a while.

Peerless Jiang looked at Liu Bei in surprise.

He already knew Liu Bei's character; to put it bluntly, he was afraid of death.

Liu Bei forced a smile and said, "There must be a goal to work towards, otherwise, what is the purpose of cultivation?"

These words made Peerless Jiang's mind tremble.

That's right.

What is the purpose of cultivation?

Peerless Jiang wanted to resurrect his Master, but that was only a goal added later. Before that, he just wanted to become stronger.

But only after he Attained the Dao did he realize that a Saint was not the end.

After coming to Chaos, he learned that there is always someone better and a higher heaven.

cultivation has no limit, and there is never a peak.

And what should he Cultivate for?

To be the strongest?

Peerless Jiang lacked confidence.

He had heard that the Chaos Demon Gods had all been exterminated by the Divine Authority Generals!

Peerless Jiang suddenly thought of the Divine Might Heavenly Sage of the Heavenly Dao.

The Divine Might Heavenly Sage was also a being who cultivated bitterly all year round, but in Chaos, many cultivators were puzzled as to why he wanted to protect the Heavenly Dao.

The Heavenly Dao was created by Pangu and then merged with the Dao by the Dao Ancestor. No matter how strong the Heavenly Dao became, its Luck would not fall upon the Divine Might Heavenly Sage.

At this moment, Peerless Jiang seemed to understand.

Just like Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's voice drifted over: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, can you fight a battle with me? If we really can't win, we can flee then."

Peerless Jiang hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.

He twisted his neck and stretched his limbs, smiling. "Then let's fight. I haven't fought for hundreds of thousands of years."

The two smiled at each other and then charged together toward the black mist deep in the Void Realm.

Soon, the battle broke out!

Inside the Third Dojo.

Under the tree, Qing Luaner suddenly stood up and looked up at the starry sky.

The over one hundred transformed living beings did not notice the crisis outside the Star Universe; they were still playing around.

Because they were not of the Human Race, their growth cycle was extremely long. Even after ten years, they were still in a juvenile state.

Qing Luaner, who already had a God Realm cultivation, could see the Void Realm outside the Star Universe. She saw Liu Bei and Peerless Jiang performing Divine Abilities within the black mist.

Her beautiful eyes widened, and she hurriedly returned to the Daoist temple.

"Husband, outside…"

Seeing that Han Jue had not yet started cultivating, Qing Luaner said urgently.

However, she realized that Han Jue's cultivation was stronger than hers and he must have noticed, so she didn't finish her sentence.

Han Jue chuckled softly and said, "Those two are protecting this Universe."

Qing Luaner was stunned.

Protecting?

"That black mist is the Inauspicious Evil Spirits. They are evil vengeful spirits in Chaos that specifically attack living beings. They cannot be seen, and their aura cannot be captured."

Han Jue introduced them, making Qing Luaner feel incredibly amazed.

Qing Luaner asked curiously, "Who are those two? Didn't you say only you were here?"

Han Jue smiled and said, "One of them is a Clone I created in the past, and the other is a disciple I want to nurture. By the way, this disciple of mine thinks I'm dead."

Qing Luaner became even more curious and hurriedly asked more questions.

Han Jue didn't hide anything and explained the origins of Liu Bei and Peerless Jiang.

Liu Bei was fine, being formed from the Physical Body of an enemy.

But Peerless Jiang's experience was truly amazing.

Hundreds of thousands of lifetimes.

How many years would that add up to?

Qing Luaner could hardly imagine it.

"They are so powerful. Are they Grand Unity Golden Immortals?" Qing Luaner asked curiously.

In the Immortal Realm, she had heard of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal, which was the peak of Immortals.

Han Jue smiled and said, "They are Saints. That disciple of mine has even surpassed the Saint Realm."

Saints?

Qing Luaner was amazed once again.

Han Jue said, "Above the Immortal Emperor is the God Realm, above the God Realm is the Grand Unity, and further up are the Quasi-Saint, Saint, and Free and Unfettered Saint."

Qing Luaner asked in surprise, "Your disciple has already reached the Free and Unfettered Saint Realm, yet you still lied to him. Aren't you afraid he'll get angry and take revenge on you?"

How could Peerless Jiang, who had gone through hundreds of thousands of lifetimes, treat a Master who had only been with him for two or three lifetimes as a close relative and be completely obedient?

Han Jue said, "Because I surpass the Free and Unfettered Saint."

Qing Luaner's beautiful eyes widened.

Han Jue saw her change in expression and felt secretly pleased.

He looked up at the battle outside the Universe and smiled. "This disciple of mine has some skill. It seems I won't need to act."

"Husband, just how strong are you now?" Qing Luaner grabbed Han Jue's arm and asked curiously.

Han Jue acted profound and said, "I can't tell you, for fear of discouraging you. Just Cultivate well, and one day you will reach my height."

Qing Luaner turned and asked, "What about Tuo'er?"

"He? He's also a Free and Unfettered Saint."

"My son is that powerful?"

Qing Luaner was incredibly excited, even more surprised than when she learned about Han Jue's cultivation.

Han Jue curled his lip, feeling a bit jealous.

As expected, this girl still cares most about her son.

Qing Luaner followed up by saying, "Husband, let's have another child. Tuo'er only stayed with me for twenty years; he might have already forgotten what I look like."
