Chu Xuan continued, "Qin Ying has been reincarnated and is about to return."
"He is now my in-name disciple. I once promised him that no one above the Emperor realm would interfere in the fight for the fate treasures."
"You can be said to be the best among the Emperor realm experts. The fate treasures cannot fall into the hands of others."
Ding Yue patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Master. The most precious fate treasure will definitely belong to us."
"Master, are you saying that we should help junior brother Qin Ying?" Xiang Xing asked.
"He has his own plan. Whether you help or not is up to you. The fight for the fate treasures is also up to you. Qin Ying's strength will not be weaker than yours."
Chu Xuan pondered for a moment, then said, "You guys just have to do your own thing. Qin Ying has his own methods and backup plans. He may not need your help."
He waved his hand and said, "All of you go now. The Southern Region is about to be plunged into turmoil, so how can you all be absent?"
"Yes, Master!"
His disciples bowed respectfully and left.
"Thirteenth Brother, I'll go and take a look too," Chu Yun said.
"Go ahead."
Chu Xuan nodded. Although Chu Yun was relatively weaker, she was still one of the stronger ones among the Emperor realm cultivators.
Before Chu Yun left, she looked around the courtyard and shouted, "Little White, come quickly!"
On a mountain peak outside the Chu family's territory, the Heavenly Spirit Cat slapped Bai Shaokong and Xin Yuanfeng to the ground with its claws and stored away the comb and fan. Then, it disappeared from where it was in a flash.
Bai Shaokong and Xin Yuanfeng lay on the ground and panted. When they saw that the comb and fan were gone, their hearts ached so much that they could not breathe.
They had served the cat respectfully for such a long time. All they wanted were these divine artifacts. In the end, this cat did not even give them a chance.
They had been cat slaves for so long in vain.
Fortunately, this cat did not kill them.
They had to run away quickly.
Xin Yuanfeng and Bai Shaokong rushed off in a hurry. They would never dare to come again. There was something very wrong with the Chu family!
"Meow!"
The Heavenly Spirit Cat instantly appeared in front of Chu Yun. It widened its eyes and looked very cute.
"Little White, let's go out and play, okay?"
Chu Yun happily picked it up.
"Meow."
Chu Yun carried the cat and left.
She was clearly aware of her own strength, and also knew that the Heavenly Spirit Cat was not simple. With this cat around, what was there to be afraid of?
Su Xian'er stayed in the small courtyard.
"Aren't you going to watch the show?" Chu Xuan rubbed her head and said.
"I'll stay here to accompany you, Sir," Su Xian'er smiled sweetly and said.
"As you wish."
The courtyard fell silent, and the pocket dimension felt empty for once.
The disciples had all left, but Grandpa Zhang was still secretly protecting Hei Yue.
The twenty-year milestone had arrived.
Chu Xuan had been looking forward to this reward.
"You've been a shut-in for twenty years, and your heart is as stable as a mountain. You have been rewarded with a lump of chaotic energy."
The reward came.
A lump of chaotic energy!
Chu Xuan examined the reward.
"Chaotic energy which originated from primal chaos. It can evolve Dao principles, fuse Dao principles, temper Dao principles..."
Chu Xuan was pleasantly surprised.
It could evolve, fuse and temper Dao principles. The chaotic energy could accelerate the transformation of his Dao principles.
In addition, these were only the most basic functions of chaotic energy.
Chaotic energy had many more functions. It was a true treasure, especially for his Indestructible Chaos Body. It had the miraculous effect of increasing his cultivation speed.
Chu Xuan received the reward.
A fist-sized, hazy, chaotic, and indescribable ball of energy appeared in his hand.
Chu Xuan immediately absorbed the chaotic energy into his body.
As soon as the chaotic energy entered his body, a rumbling sound rang out. The Indestructible Chaos Body began to grow and become stronger.
The speed at which he absorbed Dao aura increased rapidly.
His Dao principles curled up and were absorbed by the chaotic energy. They actually fused into a small embryonic form of the Great Dao.
Furthermore, under the tempering of the chaotic energy, the Dao principles underwent a transformation and grew at a rapid speed.
Chu Xuan comprehended the changes brought about by the chaotic energy and the insights brought about by the fusion of the Dao principles into the embryonic form of the Great Dao.
The transformation of the Dao principles was a kind of sublimation.
Chu Xuan entered a wonderful state.
The Chaos Bell in his soul started spinning, emitting a hazy brilliance, as holding the Great Dao within it.
As Chu Xuan entered this state, the embryonic form of the Great Dao began to solidify. Under the nourishment of the Dao aura, it grew rapidly.
It gave birth to a completely new Dao principle, which was then absorbed by the chaotic energy.
The Strength Dao principle!
Three days later, Chu Xuan awoke from his wondrous state. His cultivation had successfully broken through from the first level of the Dao realm to the second level of the Dao realm.
His understanding of the Great Dao had become even more profound.
The chaotic energy spread throughout his body, and his Dao principles lingered within the chaotic energy. Sometimes they separated, and sometimes they fused.
From now on, Chu Xuan would be able to fuse and separate his Dao principles as he pleased.
Furthermore, his cultivation speed had become even faster, and the speed at which his Dao principles transformed was more than ten times faster than before.
As expected of energy that had originated from primal chaos!
Chu Xuan silently pondered on his cultivation speed. Breaking through from the second level of the Dao realm to the third level of the Dao realm, given his current cultivation speed, and even with the help of the chaotic energy refining his Dao principles, would still take decades.
For other Dao realm cultivators, breaking through one level in decades was extremely terrifying.
However, Chu Xuan was not satisfied with this.
Decades were too long.
Furthermore, this lump of chaotic energy was not something he had an endless supply of.
Every time his Dao principles underwent a transformation, they would consume chaotic energy. Given the size of this lump of chaotic energy, Chu Xuan reckoned that it would be completely used up after three to five transformations.
In order to shorten the time needed for a breakthrough, apart from sufficient chaotic energy, the Origin Dao Crystal was still the most important thing.
Only when the Origin Dao Crystal gained the ability to allow him to enter the Great Dao would he be able to quickly break through the levels of the Dao realm…
And progress toward the Daoyuan realm.
Chu Xuan's gaze turned toward the Origin Dao Crystal. With the addition of new members and the increased activity level of the Great Dao Communication Group, the rate at which the Origin Dao Crystal was transforming had been accelerating.
Still, it would still take quite some time before the transformation was complete.
Therefore, if he wanted to further accelerate the transformation of the Origin Dao Crystal and increase his cultivation level, he still had to rely on triggering the system's rewards.
The opening of the Asura Ancient Land would most likely provide him with many opportunities to do this.
In addition, the integration of the Heavenly Dao Talisman's laws into the Southern Region's laws of Heaven and Earth, and the subsequent encroachment over them, would also be a key opportunity to trigger the system reward.
Chu Xuan was silently devising and planning all this in his mind.
It was also very necessary to increase the number of Daoyuanrealm experts in the Great Dao Communication Group.
As long as there were enough Daoyuan realm experts, he could open a second group that consisted of only Daoyuan realm experts, which would allow them to exchange their experiences and insights with each other.
For Daoyuan realm experts, the chance to share and exchange knowledge and insights was invaluable. After all, there were too few Daoyuan realm cultivators.
Even the Chaos Dao Mirror found it difficult to locate Daoyuan realm cultivators.
Chu Xuan pondered over all sorts of methods that could trigger the system's rewards, so that he could accelerate the transformation of the Origin Dao Crystal.
He felt that it was necessary for him to take in a few more disciples.
Only in this way could he increase the chances of triggering the system's rewards. Moreover, these disciples had to be spread throughout the nine zones.
