Chapter 922 Eight Million Years Old
Chapter 922: Eight Million Years Old
Long Hao and Han Yu unleashed their magic power, striking at the black mist, hoping to disperse it, but their power was instead nullified.
They were shocked, only able to watch as Qin Ling was swallowed by the black mist, which then vanished instantly, leaving no trace of Qin Ling before their eyes.
"What's going on?"
Han Yu frowned, greatly flustered.
Qin Ling was his grand-disciple, whom he had watched grow up, his most beloved person!
Long Hao looked at the Ancient Desolate and said, "Qin Ling must have been dragged in. For now, we can only go in and see."
Han Yu immediately rushed into the Ancient Desolate without hesitation.
Long Hao followed closely behind.
The two successively plunged into the Ancient Desolate, disappearing into the vast mist… In the boundless void, the Great Dao Pagoda slowly advanced, with cities and islands on all sides seemingly escorting it, creating a magnificent sight.
Inside the pagoda.
Zhou Fan stood before a giant bronze mirror, with Mo Fuchou beside him.
The scene displayed in the mirror was precisely the Ancient Desolate.
Mo Fuchou asked, "You’ve been staring at this Ancient Desolate for several days. What exactly are you looking at?"
Zhou Fan came back to his senses and chuckled, "From the outside, the Ancient Desolate doesn’t seem particularly special, but for tens of thousands of years, prodigies have often gone missing near it. With my talent, I’m afraid I’d also disappear if I went."
Mo Fuchou rolled his eyes. This fellow was so conceited.
"Compared to your master, what kind of prodigy are you?" Mo Fuchou said, annoyed, emphasizing the word ‘master’.
Zhou Fan immediately felt awkward.
He had previously concealed his relationship with Han Jue, which greatly displeased Mo Fuchou, who now frequently used it to needle him.
Zhou Fan coughed lightly and said, "Compared to Master, I certainly don't amount to much, but compared to the Chaos beings, I am indeed a prodigy. Although there is the Heavenly Emperor's call this time, I still need to be careful. I always feel that something big is about to happen."
Mo Fuchou asked curiously, "Does your master know about this?"
Zhou Fan said, "Of course he knows, but his target is the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit. Currently, it's a time for us small fry to contend. Only when the great war draws to an end will it be time for peerless mighty figures like them to make their move and decide the victor."
He spoke of how Han Jue had turned the tide in several past Heavenly Dao tribulations.
Mo Fuchou was filled with emotion after hearing this.
"He's still the same. Back when the Yuqing Sacred Sect and the Demonic Sect fought, he didn't actively intervene either. Only when the enemy reached the mountain gate did he strike to eliminate them."
Mo Fuchou's words made Zhou Fan nod.
"Although I don't agree with this method, from Master's perspective, he just wants to cultivate in peace. It's others who cause him trouble. It's already very good that he's willing to act," Zhou Fan said, shaking his head with a wry smile.
Mo Fuchou asked, "Do you mean that the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit must reach the Heavenly Dao before Han Jue will act?"
Zhou Fan nodded and said, "Exactly. So before that, it's our time to shine. Nowadays, it's not just the Heavenly Dao that wants to deal with the Ancient Desolate; mighty figures from all sides of the Chaos have this ambition, even the Dark Forbidden Lord. In my opinion, the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit may not necessarily reach the Heavenly Dao, and Master has foreseen this outcome, so he doesn't care."
Mo Fuchou thought that made sense… Time flew by.
Inside the cultivation chamber, Han Jue, who was meditating, saw three lines of text appear before his eyes:
【Detected that you are eight million years old. Your life has taken another step forward. You have the following choices】
【One, immediately exit seclusion and annex the seven supreme rules. You will receive a Great Dao Fragment, a Primordial Fragment, a Creation Spirit Stone, and a Heavenly Dao Spirit Stone】
【Two, cultivate discreetly, staying away from trouble. You will receive a Great Dao Fragment, a Primordial Fragment, and a Creation Spirit Stone】
Annex the seven supreme rules?
Han Jue couldn't help but shake his head.
Wouldn't that be courting death? The Ancestor of the Heavenly Ruins tried to do that and was stopped by me.
If he went, would the Creator Daoist take action?
How could the Ninth Chaos sit idly by while someone annexed his Chaos?
Han Jue silently chose the second option.
【You chose to cultivate discreetly, and received a Great Dao Fragment, a Primordial Fragment, and a Creation Spirit Stone】
A new round of collecting Primordial Fragments had begun!
Han Jue wasn't bored at all; he was quite looking forward to it.
He took out the Creation Spirit Stone and merged it with a ball of Fiendcelestial Qi.
While merging, he paid attention to the Primordial World.
Fiendcelestial Qi could naturally nurture Chaos Fiendcelestials, but the gestation period was long. However, ever since he achieved the Ultimate Origin Fiendcelestial, the nurturing speed of the Fiendcelestial Qi had become faster and faster, and Han Jue could already feel their vitality.
"Perhaps I should save the Creation Spirit Stones in the future."
Han Jue thought silently.
Plans couldn't keep up with changes. The Fiendcelestial army was no longer that important, but this was also the best outcome.
If Han Jue needed to rely on the power of the Fiendcelestial army, it meant he was already weak or in a desperate situation.
The three thousand Fiendcelestials were still useful; they would help him manage the Primordial World and protect the Heavenly Dao in the future.
The current Primordial World was incredibly vast and would sooner or later catch up to the Chaos.
However, the Primordial World was independent within his soul and still couldn't escape the Chaos. To surpass the Chaos, it was likely that the Primordial World and the Chaos would eventually clash.
But that was all for the future!
First, get stronger!
Han Jue suddenly remembered that Han Huang's one millionth birthday was also approaching.
He immediately sent a voice transmission to Han Huang.
Soon, Han Huang arrived at his cultivation chamber and bowed.
"Father, the Ancient Desolate is causing more and more commotion in the Chaos. I heard that the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit wants to flatten the Heavenly Dao, and the Chaos is debating who is stronger, you or the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit. What do you think?"
Han Huang asked excitedly, clearly having learned about the Chaos situation through the Great Dao Gate.
The Divine Robe Daoist was truly a chatterbox.
This was good too; it was a good thing for Han Huang to understand the Chaos in advance.
Han Jue said, "I don't think much of it. Let's talk about it when the fighting starts."
Han Huang followed up, "I heard that many Chaos prodigies have been captured by the Ancient Desolate, including Heavenly Dao Sages. Oh, and one of your descendants was also captured. The Divine Robe Daoist told me. He said his name was Han Yu? Yes, Han Yu!"
Upon hearing this, Han Jue frowned.
Although he usually didn't think of Han Yu, Han Yu was ultimately his descendant and a Sage he had supported. How could he stand by and do nothing?
He pulled up his social network to check and found that Han Yu's avatar was still there.
He then checked his emails.
Not just Han Yu, but Qin Ling, Long Hao, Zhou Fan, and Mo Fuchou had also been captured.
【Your disciple Long Hao has been possessed by your enemy, the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit, and his will has been sealed】
All the emails were similar.
Just like Dao Zhizun.
What did the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit want to do?
Did he really want to command the Chaos prodigies to fight for him?
Han Jue asked in his mind, "After the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit possesses the prodigies, will he kill them?"
【One hundred trillion years of lifespan need to be deducted. Do you wish to continue?】
Continue!
【No】
Indeed.
The Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit wanted to control the Chaos and become its master, so naturally, he couldn't kill all the Chaos prodigies.
Han Jue wasn't afraid. When the time came, he would capture his disciples back and use the system's absolute purification to restore them.
"Father, what are you thinking? Are you going to deal with the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit? When? Where? I want to watch!"
Han Huang asked excitedly. If the Ancient Desolate Divine Spirit, who struck fear into the hearts of Great Dao Sages, were to die by his father's hand, how majestic would that be!
