Start getting stronger by modifying your breathing method

Chapter 532 The Boundary Tower [Part Two]

The reason why it cannot be modified or improved.

It's not that the modified value is insufficient.

Rather, it is the special nature of the second realm of Dao Lord, the Dao Scene.

Hu Qi's gaze followed.

A line of tiny text appeared in the background.

(Scenery rendering progress: 0%)

The Dao Jing is the manifestation of the Dao, a projection that influences reality, and an essential leap in the realm.

The key lies in the resonance between the inner self and the manifestation of the Tao.

To break through this level.

In addition to sufficient modification values.

There is another requirement that needs to be met.

In at least one or more real worlds, not their own spiritual lands, in the universe, leave behind an indelible marker or foundation stone containing the true meaning of their own Great Dao.

in short.

It requires spreading one's influence, and doing so for a sufficiently long time.

The stronger the influence, the easier it is to break through the Dao realm.

For example, the Black Disc Starfield where he was previously located.

The mythical image of 'Pan' as the creator of heaven and earth and the embodiment of all things has been deeply ingrained in people's minds.

Perhaps each civilization and race has different myths and legends, resulting in some differences.

But there is one thing they have in common.

It will become the creator of all beings' faith in various forms.

The reason why the information about a Daoist master has been spread so widely is precisely this.

To break through the Dao realm and accelerate the reflection process.

In some ways, this is very similar to the professional advancement ritual in the ten-star novel world created by the Reincarnation Bookstore.

Only when a certain condition is met.

Only then can the modified value be improved.

However, due to the unique nature of the Divine Limit Heart Technique, coupled with the scarlet panel, it is difficult to obtain the necessary materials.

Hu Qi doesn't need to be like other Dao Lords.

To create a world, leave behind legends, and wait for billions of years.

All he needs to do is ensure that his influence spreads and that the progress of the reflection reaches 100%.

At this time.

His eyes moved.

It's like I noticed something.

Look inward at yourself.

Within his body, layers of grotto-heavens unfolded, like a miniature universe.

The grotto world at this moment consists of three different areas, nested one inside the other, which is extremely mysterious.

The uppermost layer is the realm where the spiritual land and the Dao seed reside.

Compared to that small patch of black soil, the landscape is now vastly different.

Since the Divine Limit Heart Technique broke through to the ninth level, this black soil has continued to expand and evolve.

Looking at it now, it has transformed into an endless continent, with pitch-black soil stretching to the horizon.

In the center of the continent, a mountain-like ridge stands majestically, its surface covered with spiderweb-like cracks.

It seemed as if it would burst forth from the earth at any moment, giving birth to earth-shattering creations.

In the black spiritual soil.

The root of energy extending from that infinite Dao Seed coiled like a dragon, its roots piercing through the void and reaching the lower level of the grotto-heaven.

Thousands of aerial roots intertwine to form a net, enveloping the entire cave world within it.

In the middle layer of the world, the dark golden Yin-Yang Reincarnation Disc floats silently.

Compared to before, it is much larger in size, with intricate runes flowing across its surface, exuding an aura of vicissitude and antiquity.

Green dots of light floated and surged within it.

This place is the place of reincarnation for all living beings in the grotto-heaven world, and it is mysterious and unfathomable.

This 'Dream Eye' was originally created using the power of the Black Banner.

The world has changed dramatically.

Its essence is sublimated, and it blends seamlessly with the original rules of the cave world.

The chains of rules manifested here, transforming into a dazzling band of light that flowed around.

Looking at the entire cave world, it resembles a chaotic egg wrapped in two membranes.

The outermost layer is a net woven from the roots of the Dao seed, while the middle layer is a barrier formed by the condensation of the power of rules.

The innermost area is the vast and boundless main body of the cave, where stars flow and circulate, like a miniature universe.

At this moment, the cave world was completely stabilized.

Its area is even more vast than that of the Black Disk Galaxy.

However, the area is still slowly expanding outwards, just not as rapidly as before.

However, that's not what Hu Qi cares about.

It's something else entirely.

As the master of the grotto-heaven world.

Hu Qi has absolute control over the cave world.

He could clearly perceive the changes in the cave world.

The Cave Heaven World was originally a special space created by the Secret Martial Artists who reached the Void Saint Lord level through the extraordinary system.

Therefore, it is impossible for matter and life to exist in this place.

The world within it was all plundered and devoured by him through various means.

But it is different now.

He clearly sensed wisps of gas and solid particles floating within this celestial world.

These things are also known as cosmic dust.

Given enough time.

This can lead to the evolution and birth of celestial bodies.

This scene occurred.

This also means that the Cave Heaven World has become a real world, no, it would be more appropriate to say it is a universe.

A constantly growing, cosmic world.

Only one thing.

Even the Dao Lord seems unable to create a soul out of thin air.

It still requires the power of the spirit world, or more precisely, the power of the Gate of True Spirits, to accomplish this.

"Soul?"

Hu Qi muttered to himself as he reached out and grasped at the air.

It was as if countless points of light, formed from the light of souls, were flowing through my fingers.

One day.

He will master this power.

I suppressed these thoughts and didn't dwell on them any further.

Hu Qi glanced around.

Then, he chose a direction and took a step.

The figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

……

The entire Origin Realm is incredibly vast.

Even with the power of the Dao Lord's soul, it would be impossible to cover it up.

Because the entire Origin Realm is constantly expanding outwards.

In some respects, this is somewhat similar to the situation in his own grotto-heaven world.

We left the outer reaches of the Black Disk Galaxy.

It was an absolutely desolate blank area, which the Black Disk Galaxy called the Chaos Ruins.

It symbolizes a desolate, barren place devoid of any life.

The nearest galaxies are billions of light-years away.

This is why this happens.

This is due to the inhomogeneity of the early universe.

The universe after the Big Bang contains tiny quantum fluctuations, which are amplified by the expansion of the universe, creating density differences, such as high-density and low-density regions.

Another reason is the gravitational amplification effect.

High-density regions attract more matter through gravity, gradually forming galaxies, galaxy clusters, and filamentary structures.

The material in the low-density areas is 'removed,' leaving a void.

In short, over this long period of time, due to gravity, or the 'disk' itself, these celestial bodies came together and all became part of the Black Disk Galaxy.

This has led to the emergence of such areas.

Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult to cross such a vast distance.

There are dangers even in such a vacuum region.

Although it is called a blank area, it is not devoid of matter.

Not to mention the various terrifying rays.

The dark matter or uneven gravitational field that may be hidden in the void region alone could cause deviations in the spacecraft's orbital calculations, or even tear it apart.

Or, for example, there might be cosmic dust or meteorites that travel at extremely high speeds and could easily penetrate spacecraft.

However, none of this is a problem for Hu Qi now.

His figure was unimpeded.

Every step you take.

Their figures appeared as if they had been teleported, in the far distance.

It's far beyond what the speed of light can measure.

If he wants, he can leave here quickly.

But Hu Qi didn't do that. He simply maintained a certain speed and continued forward.

In the process, it also swallowed up several sources of calamity and ash fog along the way.

However, it may be because there are no celestial bodies or living beings for it to absorb.

The spread of this source-cause gray fog was not particularly fast, and the star beasts within it were quite weak.

A single source of calamity and ash fog can only provide him with less than 100,000 modification points.

However, Hu Qi didn't care.

Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are.

After being promoted to Dao Lord, Hu Qi no longer felt the same sense of crisis as before.

Although the source of the haze exists.

However, with the Crimson Panel, he could continuously adjust his own status, so he wasn't in a hurry.

Just consider it a break for yourself.

At the same time, it also helps to stabilize the cultivation level that has increased too rapidly.

……

half year later.

In the empty vacuum area before me, stars of various colors reappeared.

This means he has successfully left that empty starry sky area.

The anomaly in the status column on the panel is due to the high-latitude erosion progress increasing from 0.1% to 0.2%.

It only grew by 0.1% in six months. To reach 1%, it would take at least five years to reach 100%.

It will take at least five hundred years.

However, the conversion is not actually done that way.

Based on what the other party said in previous exchanges with 'Pan'.

The progress of the pollution and erosion caused by the source of disaster may be affected by various factors.

The further along you go, the longer it takes.

After all, the Dao Lord realm is the pinnacle of the Spirit Realm system.

Ultimately, they are not ants that can be crushed at will.

For the erosion process to reach 100% completion, it would take an even longer time, at least millions of years.

However, there is no essential difference.

For an existence like the Dao Lord, time itself has lost its meaning.

Even if it takes tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years, we will eventually arrive.

Cases like Hu Qi, who rose from humble beginnings to the pinnacle in less than ten thousand years, are extremely rare.

The other Dao Lords, which one of them did not go through at least tens of millions of years to attain the Great Dao?

For beings like them...

Death should have been far away long ago, but due to the erosion of the source disaster, it once again faces the danger of falling.

Under such circumstances, regardless of other Dao Lords...

Or perhaps Hu Qi himself would find it difficult to accept.

No one is willing to face death directly.

The higher one climbs, the more powerful one becomes, and this is especially true for those who are truly formidable.

After spending 100,000 modification points to restore the erosion rate to 0.1%, Hu Qi stopped interfering.

As long as there is a modified value.

The source of the disaster could not possibly corrupt him.

However, this is ultimately a stopgap measure.

To eradicate it completely, we must wait until we are powerful enough to find the gate to true spirit before we can devise a solution.

Hu Qi then traveled a further distance.

"Fellow Taoist, please stay!"

A voice suddenly rang out.

The next second, a figure shrouded in light appeared in front of Hu Qi, blocking his path.

The light gradually faded, revealing a white-robed man holding a folding fan.

He had a refined and scholarly appearance, wore a snow-white mink coat over his shoulders, and had a warm and lustrous yellow jade pendant hanging at his waist, just like a noble young master from an ancient family.

His aura was deep and composed, clearly indicating that he was a Dao Lord.

Hu Qi felt a sense of familiarity with this person's aura.

This reminded him of one of the two pairs of eyes that had been watching him when he destroyed the Suiwa Dao Domain.

However, now that he has been promoted to Dao Lord, he naturally has no need to be wary of the other party.

In his perception, this person's strength seemed to be somewhat weaker than his own.

He's probably only at the Spirit Earth Realm.

Moreover, it doesn't seem to be the actual entity.

Since that's the case, he naturally doesn't need to give the other party a friendly look.

"Fellow Daoist, what is the meaning of blocking my path?"

Hu Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, his face expressionless.

The other person's familiar words.

It suddenly reminded him of a character named Shen Gongbao from a mythological drama he had watched on Earth.

Whenever the other party says this, the person being stopped is usually about to meet their end.

Regarding Hu Qi's thoughts.

The man, of course, had no idea.

He closed his folding fan and bowed slightly.

"Fellow Daoist, let me introduce myself. My name is Huo Yao, the Master of Gu!"

Fellow Daoist's advancement to Dao Lord is truly a great blessing for our Origin Realm.

I've come here to invite you to join the World Tower. What do you think?

When saying this.

Huo Yao was somewhat surprised.

Because when facing Hu Qi.

Within his own body, his natal Gu worm sensed a dangerous aura emanating from the person before him.

As Huo Yao is connected to the origin of his natal Gu worm, he can naturally perceive this feeling clearly.

But how is this possible?

The other party was merely a newly promoted Dao Lord of the Spirit Earth Realm.

Whether or not one has stabilized their own realm is another matter entirely.

How could I have made him feel this way?

But no matter what.

The warning from one's natal Gu worm is absolutely infallible.

This person is not simple.

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but take it seriously.

Then, his aura changed, becoming even more composed.

It was as if some unknown method had been used, and the main body had descended into this clone.

Regarding the changes in Huo Yao.

Hu Qi saw it all.

But nothing was said.

He understood that the other party's presence here must be because 'Pan' had leaked his information.

This was within his expectations.

"I'm willing to join, but I'm not very clear about the current situation of the Boundary Tower and the Origin Realm. I wonder if you could enlighten me?"

Hu Qi did not refuse the other party's invitation.

I agreed directly.

Joining the Boundary Tower was exactly what he needed to do next.

"Of course!"

Huo Yao smiled.

"Then let's talk as we walk!"

Hu Qi then briefly stated his name.

After that, the atmosphere eased considerably.

Both of them are cunning old foxes.

A few words later.

The unfamiliar address of "fellow Daoist" was quickly removed, and "Brother Huo" and "Brother Hu" were used instead.

In this process.

This also gave Hu Qi a clearer understanding of the current situation in the Origin World.

The Origin Realm is vast and boundless, and nearly a hundred Dao Lords have been born in the long river of time.

However, times have changed, and to this day, due to various reasons, only fifteen Dao Masters remain in the world.

Of these fifteen Dao Lords, two chose to transcend worldly affairs.

The remaining thirteen all joined the Boundary Tower.

Now Hu Qi has joined, becoming the fourteenth member of the World Tower.

He is also the only remaining sixteenth Dao Lord in the Origin Realm.

The boundary tower among them.

It was created by many Dao Lords within the Origin Realm at the same time.

A powerful artifact used to prevent the Void Sea from eroding the Origin Realm.

Although they are both towers.

However, it is far more powerful than the Xuanhuang Pagoda in the Black Disc Starfield.

At this moment, Huo Yao, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up.

"Brother Hu, we've arrived at the Boundary Tower!"
