Chapter 530 Advancement to Dao Lord [Part Two]

The moment the words fell, a line of golden runes suddenly appeared on the giant gate.

Lord of Infinity: A Synonym for Eternity and Infinity

At the same time, the entire giant door shook violently.

Several of the black lines that clung to it disappeared in an instant.

A golden halo appeared above the giant gate.

It dispersed some of the surrounding black mist.

The aperture is absolutely stunning.

Yet it also reveals an eternal stillness.

At the edge of that halo, decaying lines, like vines, began to coil around it.

hum!
This behavior seemed to have angered the giant gate, which trembled.

It burst forth with dazzling golden light.

next second.

The scene before my eyes shattered.

Hu Qi's consciousness began to plummet rapidly downwards.

Then, it returned to its own body.

Hu Qi was unaware of this.

The moment his true name, representing the Infinite Lord, was inscribed on that ancient door.

The entire primordial world trembled.

Amidst global upheaval.

Everywhere in the boundless realm of origin.

One after another, powerful and imposing beings were startled and raised their heads.

Look up at the starry sky at the top.

A golden streak appeared on it, like a shooting star streaking across the entire Origin Realm.

"Someone has advanced to become a Dao Lord? How is that possible?!"

……

This is a dazzling silver-white galaxy.

Above the vast and boundless starlight.

A simple wooden boat floats quietly, with a figure in a straw raincoat and hat sitting at the bow.

Holding a green bamboo fishing rod, a strand of silver thread hangs from the tip of the rod and disappears into the depths of the flowing starry river below.

suddenly.

The entire Milky Way shimmered with a ring of light, just like a real river.

The figure in the straw raincoat, who had been sitting motionless at the bow of the boat, suddenly raised his head.

A plain-looking middle-aged man's face was revealed. His cheeks were thin and his beard was unshaven, but his eyes seemed to hold the shimmering light of a silver river.

"The Lord of Infinity?! Interesting. There's no trace of this person in the River of Time. Is he a visitor from beyond destiny?"

"However, regardless of the circumstances, this is a good thing. The true name of a Dao Lord might allow the 'gate' to hold out a little longer and buy more time..."

He whispered to himself.

...

Beyond the origin realm, in the depths of the boundless void sea.

A viscous, wriggling sound emanated from within, as if some indescribable entity was exhaling chaotic energy.

In this dimension where even time is distorted, a colossal palace built from pale skeletons floats silently within.

The outer walls of the palace are covered with dark purple, vein-like patterns that seem to pulsate slowly in accordance with some special rhythm.

Inside the palace, on a crystal throne, sat a young man with hair as white as frost.

He was tall and slender, with snow-white hair and a face so exquisite it was almost otherworldly, making it difficult to tell whether he was male or female.

His skin was so pale it was almost transparent, and one could vaguely see that what flowed beneath it was not blood, but some kind of thicker, darker liquid.

His slender fingers lightly tapped the armrest, and his fingernails, like the throne, exhibited a translucent, crystalline state.

At that moment, those eyes opened and looked directly toward the direction of the Origin Realm.

"Lord of Infinity?"

The boy's lips curled up, but his voice seemed to echo with a thousand reverberations, reverberating throughout the hall.

Beneath the throne stood powerful shadows of varying shapes.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the crystal armrest.

The white-haired boy suddenly chuckled, his laughter carrying a kind of inhuman emptiness.

"The Origin Realm, riddled with holes, could still give birth to a Dao Lord. It's truly a miracle."

"Unfortunately, these are all futile dying struggles, and everything will eventually return to nothingness."

...

The chain reaction that comes after breaking through to the Dao Lord level.

Hu Qi was unaware of this.

At this moment, he sat cross-legged within the cave world.

Perceiving the changes that have taken place.

At this moment.

His power is far greater than before; he could even destroy his former self with a single thought.

No wonder the 'source' formed from the residual power of the Heavenly Evolution Dao Master in the Reincarnation Bookstore almost drove him mad just by standing in front of him.

The difference between the Dao Lord and the True God is like an insurmountable chasm; they cannot be considered the same kind of life form at all.

Hu Qi looked at the panel in front of him.

[Owner: Hu Qi]

[Status: Abnormal △ (Unknown high-latitude force erosion, progress: 0.3%)]

[Level of Life: Dao Lord]

[Bloodline: Taiyu Holding a Serpent]

[Talents: Devouring Spirit, Twisted Light (Heaven and Earth), Primal Eye △ (Crimson Sun Inferno), Eternal Ring]

[Divine Power: Heavenly Mandate Pivot, Ultimate Body, God-Slaying Realm]

[Skill: Divine Limit Heart Technique △ (Dao Lord Chapter Level 1: Spirit Earth Realm)]

【Heaven-Stealing Technique (Perfected) Trait: Stealing Heaven】

……

[Modified value: 2470010 (3%)]

The panel has undergone significant changes compared to before.

The "Taoist Rhyme" section has disappeared.

The modified value also increased automatically due to the nature of the cave world.

now.

His gaze swept around the room and landed on the status section.

The status indicates an error.

It should be noted that before being promoted to Dao Lord, one's condition should be clearly normal.

"Is it erosion by high-latitude forces?"

Hu Qi's gaze sharpened.

In an instant, he thought of the door he had just seen, hidden in the black mist and corroded by black marks.

Could it be that the appearance of one's real name on it, through which it was used as a medium, influenced one's own actions?

Only in this way can it be explained.

However, after carefully examining himself, he realized that with his current abilities, his control over himself had reached an extremely terrifying level. He could see everything clearly, no matter how small or minute the microscopic level was.

But there were no problems.

However, since it's already shown on the crimson panel, it's unlikely to be wrong.

"What are those black marks and black mist on it? Could they be related to the source calamity gray mist? What will happen if it is completely eroded over time?"

Hu Qi frowned slightly.

Various ideas flashed through his mind.

Unfortunately, there is still too little information available.

This is simply insufficient to draw conclusions about the current situation.

I thought about it.

Hu Qidao.

"Crimson! Clear the anomaly!"

hum!
The panel vibrated, and the modified value column instantly decreased by 300,000.

It felt as if an invisible force was sweeping over me.

Simultaneously.

A picture suddenly surfaced deep within Hu Qi's consciousness.

Above the towering gate he had just witnessed, the golden runes bearing the true name of the Lord of Infinity had, unbeknownst to him, had been slightly eroded by a strange black mark.

at this time.

A dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from the true name, burning the black marks that clung to it into wisps of blue smoke.

But the light lasted only a moment.

After the golden light dimmed and returned to normal, an even denser black shadow clung to it again like a malignant tumor, spreading out a little at its edge.

It looked like splashed ink.

The image fades.

Furthermore, the peculiar fluctuation caused by the modified value also disappeared simultaneously.

Hu Qi turned his gaze back to the panel.

[Status: Abnormal △ (Unknown high-latitude force erosion, progress: 0.1%)]

The anomaly in the status quo persists.

It's just that it's decreased by 0.2 compared to before.

Thinking back to what I had seen before.

It's not difficult to judge.

The corruption he suffered was definitely related to the black marks on that giant gate.

"Even modifying the value cannot completely remove it?"

Hu Qi frowned slightly.

He then revised it again.

Nothing unexpected.

The situation is the same as before.

After it was removed, the black marks reappeared.

And the erosion progress remains at 0.1.

See this scene.

Hu Qi's complexion was not very good.

This was the first time he had encountered something that even the Crimson Panel couldn't handle. And the amount of modification points it consumed was far too much.

On average, clearing 0.1% of the erosion progress requires 10 modification values.

Looking at the remaining two million modification values ​​on the panel, Hu Qi did not continue making changes.

Continuing in this situation would only waste the modified values.

To solve this completely.

Perhaps only by finding that giant door can we succeed.

He had a premonition.

That giant gate is real.

He wasn't sure of the exact location, but he wasn't in a hurry about it.

We can try contacting other Dao Masters to see if we can obtain information in this regard.

As for the issue of this unknown high-latitude force erosion...

Although it cannot be eradicated for the time being.

However, the presence of the Crimson Panel can alleviate the problem by periodically consuming some modified values.

Think of this.

Hu Qi turned his gaze to the panel.

A thought.

Two million modification points were used to upgrade the Divine Limit Heart Technique to the third level.

This time.

The area of ​​that originally pitch-black spiritual land is visibly expanding.

Even more noticeably, a barely perceptible bulge appeared on the originally smooth surface of the soil mound.

That is the place where the Dao seed resides.

Hu Qi could clearly sense that the life force of the Dao seed buried within was becoming increasingly vigorous.

……

outside world.

Zongshi Mountain.

As a powerful Dao Domain ranked ninth, it was now surrounded by countless terrifying figures.

These people are not other.

These were the powerful figures from the First Dao Domain's Sumeru Palace, the Third Dao Domain's Zhuxian Temple, the Fourth Dao Domain's Ancient Buddha Temple, and the Fifth Dao Domain's Heji Pavilion.

Upon arriving here, even the weakest beings are at the Martial Emperor level.

Behind these four major domains.

There were also figures from other Dao realms.

However, these people did not approach; they simply watched the scene from a distance.

"Zhang Huo! I need a reasonable explanation for this!"

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with a fair complexion, no beard, and a green mark between his eyebrows.

This person is none other than the sect leader of Mount Sumeru.

Beside him stood a pale-faced, weak-breathing young monk in plain clothes, who was none other than Xumizi, who had been severely injured by Jiang Jiu earlier.

The body that was originally only half a body now appears to have returned to normal from the outside.

Of course, this is only on the surface.

In fact, his injuries were extremely serious.

However, in order to get revenge.

The first thing he did after leaving the Azure Lotus Realm was to immediately return to the Sumeru Palace.

He then recounted the story of the two treasures Jiang Jiu had used previously.

Since both the God-Slaying Spear and the Xuanhuang Pagoda are in the other party's hands, the Sumeru Seal must also be in Zongshi Mountain.

However, Zongshi Mountain is ultimately the Ninth Dao Domain.

They really risked their lives, especially with the blessing of a supreme treasure.

Even if the Sumeru Palace can suppress it, it will likely cause enormous casualties.

To avoid this from happening.

The Sumeru Palace contacted several other major domains to come to this place, which led to this scene.

Facing this circumstances.

The peak masters of Zongshi Mountain all looked solemn.

But nothing was said.

They simply turned their gaze toward their sect leader.

After all, they were unaware of the existence of the five treasures.

However, regarding this...

Upon hearing this, Zhang Huo didn't even lift his eyelids, his face remaining completely calm.

He simply said:
"Explanation? You all claim that I, Zong Shishan, stole the treasure, but what proof do you have?"

At this point, he glanced at everyone present.

"You slander my reputation without any evidence, and make such a fuss about me. Don't be a pawn in this game without even realizing it."

Hear this.

Sumiko spoke coldly.

"I witnessed this with my own eyes, and there's no way I could be wrong."

Furthermore, my injuries were clearly caused by the God-Slaying Spear; I'm sure everyone at the God-Slaying Temple can discern this! It shouldn't be faked!

"That's right! I can prove that."

"Old Zhang, if your Zongshi Mountain sect is truly innocent, hand over that little girl so we can search her soul. The result will then be clear."

"At the Zhuxian Temple, an old Taoist priest in a gray robe spoke coldly."

His gaze fell upon Jiang Jiu, who stood expressionless in the crowd.

"Fuck your mother's fart!"

Zhang Huo started cursing right away.

"To search the soul of my disciple right in front of me? Do you really think my Zongshi Mountain is made of mud?"

"This is not up to you! Since you are unwilling, we will have no choice but to take action by force!"

The sect leader of Sumeru Palace, whose brow had a green vertical mark, spoke.

"Those treasures of yours, I took them all; they have nothing to do with Zongshi Mountain!"

at this time.

A sudden sound drew everyone's attention.

Follow the sound and look.

He was a young man dressed in purple.

It was Hu Qi.

At this moment, he calmly surveyed the many people from the Dao Domain around him.

"So it was you who stole our Dao Domain's most precious treasure?! You have some nerve!"

The one who spoke was the sect leader of Heji Pavilion.

A charming man whose voice alternates between male and female.

Although he said this, he did not take any action.

The person in front of me is very likely the culprit who destroyed the Suiwa Starfield.

However, now, several top Dao Domains have gathered here.

Even if the person in front of you is strong, as long as they are not a Dao Lord.

They could never be their match.

Hu Qi simply ignored it.

He just said lightly.

"You have three breaths. Either leave, or stay here forever!"

Throughout his journey, Hu Qi has surveyed countless worlds and only realized one truth.

That means all logic is false.

Might makes right.

What good would it do to steal their treasure?!

Once it's in his hands, it's his.

"Fine! How arrogant! What can you do if we don't leave?"

The Lord of Sumeru Palace laughed in extreme anger.

"Everyone! Charge together and suppress this man!"

Before he finished speaking, his aura surged, and he unleashed a palm strike!
Seeing this, the other powerful figures also attacked without holding back.

More than a hundred Martial Gods and Martial Emperors launched their attack simultaneously, and the violent energy tore cracks in the space itself.

"Three breaths have passed. It seems you have made your choice. What a pity."

Hu Qi sighed softly.

next moment.

It was as if an invisible wave was spreading out.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

These martial artists exploded one after another without warning, turning into clouds of blood mist.

Both the Martial Emperor and the Martial God vanished in an instant, like fragile bubbles.

Even the attacks were like that, collapsing like flying sand.

For an instant.

All the powerful figures from the four major domains were annihilated, not a single one remained.

A deathly silence fell over the surroundings.

Zongshi Mountain, and all the people from other Dao Domains who witnessed this scene from afar, were filled with astonishment.

They even wondered if they were hallucinating.

These were all top experts from various Dao Domains, and they died without any warning?

What a joke.

Zhang Huo was the same.

He had thought that Hu Qi's strength was enough to hold them off, but he hadn't expected that he could kill them all so easily.

Regarding these people's thoughts.

Hu Qi didn't interfere.

His gaze fell on Jiang Jiu, who stood silently to the side.

A slight smile appeared on his face.

A voice echoed through the area.

"I think we could have a good talk, what do you think? Let's go!"
