Chapter 542: Chapter 542: Celestial Dao Rule Domain
"Everything I said is true. I do like you, but I also genuinely hope you can help me in the future!"
Feng Chaoge spoke again.
"Me? Help you?"
Ye Tianling’s heart stirred.
Feng Chaoge nodded. "Yes. I like you, and I’ve told you why before. But now, I want to emphasize one more point—as a Law Enforcer of the Soul Race, I have some understanding of all the Laws under its command. My own Cultivation Technique, in particular, contains a form of destiny’s power.
Therefore, I can see through and comprehend the destinies of many Cultivators. But you are the one exception. I can’t see through yours, nor can I comprehend it. Our meeting was no accident; I arranged it.
If you’re willing to follow me, I will, of course, be wholeheartedly devoted to you. If you’re not, I won’t force you. But I hope we can still be very good friends..."
Ye Tianling was stunned. ’Even Feng Chaoge can’t see through my destiny?’
That was rather strange.
But after a long moment of contemplation, Ye Tianling nodded and said earnestly, "I believe you."
Feng Chaoge took a deep breath, his expression growing solemn. "If... if one day you truly grasp the Law of Destiny, then please, help me get my revenge."
Ye Tianling couldn’t help but gasp.
"Re... revenge? Help *you* get revenge?"
Ye Tianling found it utterly unbelievable.
’What kind of being is Feng Chaoge?’
’He’s the Law Enforcer for the entire Soul Race’s domain. What kind of Realm does that even represent? I have no idea! But I do know that compared to Feng Chaoge, those so-called Saints are less than ants!’
’And an existence like that wants *me* to help him get revenge?’
The whole thing felt completely absurd to Ye Tianling.
"It’s not absurd, nor is it an exaggeration. It’s simply the truth. As for the specifics... you will understand once you comprehend the Profound Meaning of the Life Law."
A flicker of memory appeared in Feng Chaoge’s eyes, making them look incredibly deep and complex.
Ye Tianling happened to see this look, and his heart was instantly moved.
"Alright. If that day ever comes, I promise I will!"
Ye Tianling took a deep breath, his promise sincere.
Feng Chaoge let out a sigh of relief. "The Secret Realm I’m taking you to is a Celestial Dao Rule Domain Secret Realm. It’s the same kind of place where I became a Law Enforcer. Because you resist me and are unwilling to be my Disciple, I can’t teach you the Law of Destiny. And without that, I can’t help you break the Venerable Soul Curse, which is a Curse rooted in the Law of Destiny."
"However, you can perform your own Establishment Dao and your own Enlightenment Dao. Once you can fully comprehend your current inheritances, breaking the Venerable Soul Curse shouldn’t be too difficult."
A chill went through Ye Tianling’s heart. "Alright, I’ll do my best. But I only have fifteen days. Will that be enough time? More importantly, there are two unresolved matters weighing on me, and I can’t find peace."
Feng Chaoge fell silent for a moment, then raised his hand and curled his fingers.
As he curled his fingers, countless blood-red Totems manifested above them. Ripples of crimson light burst forth, each one like the birth and death of innumerable Worlds, a truly terrifying sight.
After a moment, Feng Chaoge spoke softly, "The Forgotten Dust World? And Ji Yueqi?"
Ye Tianling trembled, his eyes filled with emotion.
He nodded. "Yes."
"The Forgotten Dust World has already aligned with the Law of Destiny. As the Inheritor of the Divine Hall of Destiny, you have the opportunity to unlock it with your own will. In this matter, I can no longer help you, as our destinies are not intertwined by the karma of master and Disciple. However, based on my calculations of your Life Chart, it’s impossible that you only have fifteen days to live, so there is still a chance."
"As for Ji Yueqi, her situation is..."
Feng Chaoge trailed off, a slight pause in his words.
Ye Tianling’s heart sank. "Is... is she in danger?"
Feng Chaoge shook his head. "Perhaps you will be disappointed. Or perhaps, you can change things. In the Celestial Dao Rule Domain Secret Realm, you can comprehend the Celestial Dao Rule Domain and the true Space-Time Law. What is the Celestial Dao Rule Domain? It is a type of access Law, a Universal Law that applies to all cosmoses, not just the minor Laws of a single cosmos."
"And the true Space-Time Law is called the ’Time Axis.’ It is something you can Control only after reaching a certain level of attainment within the Celestial Dao Rule Domain. The Time Axis is unique; throughout all of Heaven and Earth, from antiquity to the present day, only one being can ever master it at a time."
"And if you can Control the Time Axis... well, many things will be yours to command."
Feng Chaoge’s explanation was straightforward enough for Ye Tianling to understand.
But Ye Tianling also knew that Feng Chaoge was hiding a great deal.
’For instance, why did Feng Chaoge mention that the Time Axis is unique? That only one being can comprehend it?’
’And why did he say I might be disappointed in Ji Yueqi, or that I could change things?’
Ye Tianling wasn’t stupid, but he was unwilling to dwell on these questions.
’Because in this world, strength is the only thing that matters. All this thinking is useless. It’s better to focus on cultivation and become stronger!’
"I’ll do everything I can to comprehend the Celestial Dao Rule Domain! If I do that, then my cultivation Realm isn’t that important, is it?"
Ye Tianling asked after a moment’s thought.
Feng Chaoge nodded, then shook his head. "Moving from quantitative accumulation to qualitative sublimation is a more stable path. Realm is not only important, but you must also truly break through the limits of your Realm! Given your situation, this will be very difficult. But I’m certain you can do it!"
Ye Tianling’s heart stirred. He bowed deeply and said, "I understand."
Feng Chaoge gave a dashing smile. "As long as you understand. Now, let’s go."
Ye Tianling, of course, did not refuse.
Feng Chaoge lightly tapped a finger toward the rift in Space.
HUMMM—
The rift in the Void rippled like water, transforming into a brilliant, azure Starry Gate shimmering with Flowing Light.
Then, he enveloped Ye Tianling in a wave of azure Star Power and led him directly into the depths of the Starry Gate.
After passing through the rippling threshold, the dim sky immediately became exceptionally bright and clear.
It was as if they had suddenly been transported from a frozen wasteland to a paradise where spring had returned to the earth and a thousand flowers were in bloom.
Ye Tianling took a single breath and felt the Qi Blood Power within him surge.
The inexplicable feelings of depression, irritability, and anxiety that had been plaguing him instantly vanished, replaced by a sense of ease and comfort.
"This place..."
"This is just the periphery. Keep walking straight ahead, and don’t look back. This path will take you through the four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter. You will also see projections of life and death, much like the Forgotten Dust World, and Manifestations of future changes. No matter what happens, you must hold true to your original intentions. After you have endured the harsh winter and experienced spring once more, you will enter the true Celestial Dao Rule Domain Secret Realm."
"Here, this is a Star Disc. It can record spatial Star Power nodes. If you can master a certain amount of Space Power, you’ll be able to inscribe the coordinates of these nodes and traverse the Void."
Feng Chaoge took out a palm-sized Hexagram Array Disc and handed it to Ye Tianling.
