After listening to Hong Yuanchu's explanation of the Great Daoyuan calamity, Chu Xuan felt that the Great Daoyuan calamity might be one of the ways the Great Dao created balance.
After the destruction of all living things, new life forms would be reborn from the ashes. These life forms would not continue to grow and eventually surpass the Great Dao.
It was probably why it lured Dao realm cultivators into calamity as well!
After discovering this, Chu Xuan decided to…
Strive for great fortune!
Therefore, it was time for his disciples to make preparations for the Great Daoyuan calamity.
These fated children might be destined to enter the Great Daoyuan calamity.
Every time there was a Great Daoyuan calamity, a new race would suddenly rise up. Some of them would falter in the middle of their rise, while others would fight for a wisp of fate and become active in the nine zones.
The ghost race should rise up during this Great Daoyuan calamity.
If things went according to plan, the ghost race would become a powerful race during the next Daoyuan. There was even a chance that all living beings would turn into ghosts after they died.
However, this Great Daoyuan calamity was the ninth Great Daoyuan calamity. It was likely that it would not herald the beginning of a new Daoyuan, but would welcome a Great Dao calamity instead.
No matter what, Chu Xuan wanted to reap the benefits of his disciples fighting for great fortune in the calamity.
For this the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan was too important. This was one of the key methods he had to overcome the Great Dao calamity.
Honestly, Chu Xuan was not too worried about the Great Daoyuan calamity. What truly gave him a sense of danger was the Great Dao calamity after the Great Daoyuan calamity!
The Great Dao calamity was the true danger!
The Dao realm cultivators resided in the Desolate Ancient Primordial Land, but the Daoyuan realm experts did not.
Other than Shu Yang and a few Dao realm cultivators who had Daoyuan realm masters, the rest of the Dao realm cultivators did not know where the Daoyuan realm experts resided.
Hong Yuanchu hoped to find out how to leave the nine zones, and thus in order to curry favor with Chu Xuan's smurf, Shuai Potian, he revealed the secret of the Daoyuan experts' residence.
The Daoyuan realm experts still resided in the nine zones, above the Desolate Ancient Primordial Land, in an empty space separated by another barrier.
Thos was the place closest to the Great Dao.
Each Daoyuan expert established their own Daoist Hall in this empty space.
They stayed here for a long time, constantly comprehending the Great Dao, their Dao paths, and walking on the Great Dao.
The Daoyuan realm experts were even less likely to enter the nine zones. If they were tainted by the "turbid spiritual energy," the backlash they would suffer from the Great Dao would be even more severe.
Furthermore, the Great Daoyuan calamity would not affect Daoyuan realm experts anyway.
Chu Xuan came to a sudden realization. It was no wonder the demon race had been defeated by humans back then. It turned out that their Daoyuan realm experts could not interfere.
This also meant that no matter how many Daoyuan realm experts there were, it was useless. If they forcefully interfered, they would probably be punished by the Great Dao.
The Great Dao placed many restrictions on Daoyuan and Dao realm experts.
Chu Xuan felt that the waters of the Great Dao ran deep, and there were too many secrets behind it. What Hong Yuanchu knew was probably only the tip of the iceberg.
After all, he did not even know about the Great Dao calamity, which meant that there were obvious gaps in his knowledge of the Great Dao.
The Great Dao calamity would also affect Daoyuan realm experts. Chu Xuan felt that only those who truly transcended the Great Dao could ignore the Great Dao calamity.
Therefore, the path he walked was to strive for, and establish, his own Great Dao!
The smurf account, Shuai Potian, was active in the group chat, while Chu Xuan went looking for Huang Long for a private chat.
"Fellow Daoist Huang Long, have you ever experienced the Great Dao calamity?"
He did not beat around the bush and directly asked the question.
Huang Long was very surprised and asked, "Fellow Daoist Chu, what is the Great Dao calamity?"
Hearing Huang Long's reply, Chu Xuan now knew that Huang Long was born in the ninth Great Dao era, so he was unaware of the existence of the Great Dao calamity.
"The Great Dao calamity is after the Great Daoyuan calamity. It won't be too long now," Chu Xuan sighed and explained.
"It shouldn't affect me, right?" Huang Long asked somewhat unconfidently.
The Great Dao calamity sounded very terrifying.
Huang Long was a creature of the Great Dao, so Chu Xuan did not know whether he would be affected or not, so he had no way to answer.
He just asked Huang Long to pay more attention to the changes in the Great Dao and to inform him when there were any abnormalities.
Chu Xuan was sure that before the Great Dao calamity appeared, there would definitely be some abnormalities in the Great Dao. As a creature of the Great Dao, the Dragon Lord would naturally be very sensitive to such abnormalities.
After concluding his private chat with Huang Long, Chu Xuan took out the Chaos Dao Mirror.
The Chaos Dao Mirror was not only able to search for Dao realm and above warriors, but also had the ability to deduce information.
He wanted to deduce when the Great Daoyuan calamity would appear.
For some reason, Divine realm cultivators had suddenly left the Desolate Ancient Zone, which was probably one of the signs that the calamity was about to appear.
As for the Great Dao calamity, Chu Xuan was afraid that his current cultivation level was insufficient to deduce any information about the Great Dao calamity.
He extended his hand and tapped on the Chaos Dao Mirror.
Some images appeared on the mirror, and it was covered in blood.
Chu Xuan saw that on a dilapidated battlefield, there was a huge blood-colored lake.
It was formed from the blood of countless fallen cultivators.
This blood lake was much, much larger than the one in the Asura Ancient Land, but looked eerily similar nonetheless.
Since the beginning of the ninth Daoyuan, countless battles had taken place. Countless lives had been lost. If they were all gathered into this blood lake, how terrifying would that be?
To be more precise, this was not a blood lake, but a blood sea!
The dilapidated battlefield displayed in the Chaos Dao Mirror was undoubtedly a place where the nine zones had once fought. No one knew which spatial dimension it had fallen into.
The blood sea in the picture surged violently. Then, one creature after another walked out of the blood sea.
They had warts on their foreheads, ugly facial features, and an aura of bloodlust. The blood sea kept giving birth to more and more of them.
"The resentment of the ninth Daoyuan. They originated from the ninth Great Daoyuan calamity and are born from the blood sea. Those who possess bloodlust will not die. They are the bearers of the calamity, the Blood Fiend race..."
Information appeared on the Chaos Dao Mirror, which then disappeared. That was as much information as Chu Xuan's current cultivation allowed him to deduce.
Chu Xuan's expression changed. The blood fiends!
The blood fiends were born from the calamity and the blood sea. They bearers of the calamity who could be resurrected on the battlefield!
Terrifying!
There would never be a shortage of blood fiends on the battlefield. Could it be that they could not be killed?
As expected of the ninth Daoyuan calamity. It had given birth to such a terrifying race.
However, he did not know where the battlefield was.
Hopefully, it was not in the Northern Zone.
Chu Xuan felt a sense of crisis and urgency. After replenishing his spiritual power, he once again used the Chaos Dao Mirror, this time trying to deduce the location of the battlefield.
"It's not just in the northern zone, but the entire nine zones!"
The blood fiends were spread throughout the nine zones.
This also meant that there was more than one such ancient battlefield, and that one would eventually appear in the Northern Zone.
