Chapter 444: Chapter 355: Eye of Calamity, the Profound Yellow Elder, the Profound Yellow Realm’s True ’Guardian God
"It’s like entering a whole new world."
Xu Qing mused to himself.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Xu Qing turned and walked away. Instead of heading to the Extreme Martial Arts Hall, he found a decent inn in town called the Honglou Inn and checked in.
Inside his room.
HUMMM!
Xu Qing sat cross-legged on the bed. With a thought, his consciousness connected to the Encyclopedia of All Things. Deep within his mind, the Encyclopedia of All Things shimmered with a brilliant glow.
The next moment,
using the power of the Encyclopedia of All Things, Xu Qing sensed the existence of the Beastman Mini World. This meant he could travel to the Beastman Mini World at any time.
"Teleport!"
HUMMM!
Xu Qing didn’t hesitate. With a single thought, he activated the Encyclopedia of All Things and initiated the teleportation. His entire body transformed into a white light and vanished into thin air.
The scene shifted.
Xu Qing arrived in the Level 26 Beastman Mini World, a world that had reached the equivalent of a normal Level 6. After nearly half a month had passed, it had accumulated a massive amount of Experience Points.
...
[Beastman Mini World Level 26: 240 Billion / 320 Billion Jing Experience Points (...)]
...
’I’m just short eighty billion Jing Experience Points. It’ll only take eight days in the Profound Yellow Realm. With a time flow rate of one hundred thousand times, I can accumulate enough Experience Points to raise the Beastman Mini World to Level 27.’
Xu Qing mused.
Furthermore,
millions of years had passed in the Beastman Mini World, and beings in the Transcendence Realm had long since emerged. However, every being who stepped into the Transcendence Realm was pulled into the Celestial Dao Space by the Heavenly Dao Power that Xu Qing had established. There, each of these Transcendence Realm life forms was sealed away and forced into a deep slumber.
One could say that,
as Xu Qing’s Beastman Mini World continued to advance, the day it became a true Origin World, these Transcendence Realm beings would experience an explosive leap in growth. They would become Xu Qing’s most loyal subordinates, a part of the Power at his command.
Of course,
if the Beastman Mini World truly became a genuine Origin World, the Power Xu Qing could wield by controlling its Celestial Dao would be unimaginable.
’Chaos Sword Dao.’
HUMMM! HUMMM!
Xu Qing closed his eyes and entered a state of Meditation, beginning to practice and contemplate the Chaos Sword Dao. Instantly, countless strands of Chaos Sword Qi materialized around him.
...
[Experience +1]
...
[Experience +1]
...
His Experience Points rose rapidly.
Meanwhile,
outside Xuanhuang Guardian City.
"Junior Brother Kunlun."
The old man before him, whom Kunlun Daoist Monarch respectfully called ’First Senior Brother’, was none other than the City Lord presiding over Xuanhuang Guardian City. He was also known as the Profound Yellow Elder and the Lord of Profound Yellow City.
"Cough, cough..."
The Profound Yellow Elder coughed several times. He had stood guard over Xuanhuang Guardian City for countless ages, even living through several Eras of Chaos. To this day, this strongest expert of the Profound Yellow Realm, the true Guardian God who had protected the realm for multiple Eras of Chaos, was now like a lamp running out of oil.
Evidently,
the Dark Forbidden Land and the Death Forbidden Land...
Or rather,
the Forbidden Land Life from the Nine Great Life Forbidden Lands...
were all just cowards who preyed on the weak and feared the strong.
The only reason the Dark Forbidden Land and the Death Forbidden Land dared to target the Profound Yellow Realm was that its true Guardian God, the Profound Yellow Elder, who had protected it for several Eras of Chaos, was on the verge of death.
In other words,
once the Profound Yellow Realm lost the protection of the Profound Yellow Elder, it would be unable to stop the advance of the Dark Forbidden Land and the Death Forbidden Land. The realm would become a tasty prize for the Forbidden Land Life to devour.
There was another point.
After several Eras of Chaos, the Profound Yellow Elder had failed to advance any further, and in the entire Profound Yellow Realm, no other member of the Human Race had managed to reach his level.
Among the masters of the Nine Great Sacred Lands,
only Sect Leader Chen Wangu of Shu Mountain had one foot in the Profound Yellow Elder’s level. But it was just one foot; he hadn’t truly crossed the threshold.
Now,
Chen Wangu had previously gone to the Dark Forbidden Land alone, slaying many of its servants, but was injured in the process. He was now in seclusion to recuperate.
"First Senior Brother, have you found anyone promising among these people?"
Kunlun Daoist Monarch asked.
"It’s not a matter of finding someone promising or not."
The Profound Yellow Elder shook his head. "Even if their aptitude is excellent, even if it surpasses my own, it’s already too late. There isn’t enough time."
"Most importantly,"
"I can’t hold on for much longer."
"When the time comes,"
"the Chaos Great Tribulation will descend, and I will not be able to escape death. Therefore, before I die, I must leave behind one final barrier for the Profound Yellow Realm. I will not allow it to become a hunting pasture for those Forbidden Land Life forms."
"Therefore,"
"I will choose a successor from among these juniors, someone suitable for the Profound Yellow Dao. I will directly infuse the power of the Profound Yellow Dao into their body. Combined with the Xuanhuang Guardian City, which I have spent several Eras of Chaos refining, we will surely be able to guard the entrance to the Profound Yellow Realm."
"Even if the Forbidden Land Life attacks, they won’t be able to break through the Xuanhuang Guardian City easily. Finally, with the rest of you defending it together, I believe there is hope of surviving this tribulation."
"But..."
Kunlun Daoist Monarch’s expression changed. "First Senior Brother, if you infuse the power of the Profound Yellow Dao into one of those juniors, what will happen to you? How will you survive the Chaos Great Tribulation?"
"Hm?"
Suddenly,
the Profound Yellow Elder’s expression faltered. At the exact moment Xu Qing used the power of the Encyclopedia of All Things to teleport out of Xuanhuang Guardian City to the Level 26 Beastman Mini World, the Profound Yellow Elder had faintly sensed a fluctuation.
"First Senior Brother, what happened?"
Kunlun Daoist Monarch asked.
HUMMM!
The next moment,
the Profound Yellow Elder waved his right hand. Countless images instantly appeared before him, displaying every scene within Xuanhuang Guardian City.
Unfortunately,
even after performing a divination, the Profound Yellow Elder couldn’t calculate anything or capture the slightest clue. This led him to doubt his senses.
"This..."
The Profound Yellow Elder frowned. ’Did I sense it wrong?’
"First Senior Brother, what is it?"
Kunlun Daoist Monarch asked.
"It’s nothing."
The Profound Yellow Elder shook his head, saying no more.
"How is Chen Wangu’s condition?"
the Profound Yellow Elder asked.
"Sect Leader Chen is still in seclusion."
Kunlun Daoist Monarch replied, "Sect Leader Chen was too impulsive. To think he dared to go to the Dark Forbidden Land alone. Although he killed many of its servants, he himself was gravely injured and still hasn’t recovered."
"What’s more,"
"even his own Direct Disciple was targeted by the Dark Forbidden Land. However, we turned their plot against them and used Xu Qing as bait, successfully slaying a Supreme God of the Divine Race."
"You are mistaken,"
the Profound Yellow Elder said gravely. "Chen Wangu is no reckless fool. His reason for going to the Dark Forbidden Land alone wasn’t simply to take revenge out of anger."
"In fact,"
"Chen Wangu already has one foot in my realm, but that final step is not so easily taken. That’s why he went to the Dark Forbidden Land alone. He intended to place himself on the brink of death to be reborn, to use the power of the Dark Forbidden Land to force out his own potential and break through that final step, truly entering my level."
"This..."
Kunlun Daoist Monarch looked astonished. "Is that really true?"
"Mm."
The Profound Yellow Elder nodded. "And the fact that Chen Wangu was able to return safely means he has likely already made some gains. Of course, achieving true success is not so simple."
"Regardless,"
"I still hope that Chen Wangu can take that step and reach my Realm. If he does, the burden on my shoulders will lighten considerably!"
"If Sect Leader Chen can truly break through, that would be wonderful,"
Kunlun Daoist Monarch added.
