Perfect World: The First Dao Body in the Chaotic Era!

"From now on, it will be called—Life Devourer!"

Chapter 188 Returning to the Village

He channeled divine power into the Life-Devouring Spear, his eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand to slash forward fiercely.

laugh--

A terrifying spear beam shot out, horrifyingly carving a huge gash in the hard volcano in front of it, with lava gushing out from the gap.

But the slashing force remained undiminished, flying over the sea and stirring up a row of towering water columns.

"Great gun!"

Li Dao's eyes gleamed. He played with it for a while longer, familiarizing himself with it before putting it away and looking around.

Seeing that there was nothing missing, he took a step, turned around, and disappeared from the spot.

On the vast, boundless sea, a ghost ship drifts aimlessly.

Li Daoju, having already left the forbidden sea area, has arrived at the sea area where the mermaids reside.

The journey was very smooth, without seeing a single living creature. The entire North Sea seemed to have turned into a dead land, a forbidden zone for living beings.

"This is the sea area where the mermaids live. As long as we take the teleportation array, we can go back quickly."

This place is tens of millions of miles away from the Stone Kingdom. If he were to walk back alone, it would take him an unknown amount of time to arrive. Only by using a teleportation array could he return quickly.

The moment Li Dao's aura appeared, several patrolling merfolk cultivators surrounded him.

"Who goes there? You have trespassed into the waters of my mermaid clan. Please leave immediately."

A merman male cultivator with a face as handsome as a woman stood in front of Li Dao, holding a bone fork and shouting, his eyes full of warning and solemnity.

Clearly, they were wary of Li Dao. His imposing presence was concealed, and the ominous aura emanating from the ghost ship beneath him made them uneasy.

Li Dao didn't make things difficult for them and directly stated his purpose. Upon hearing this, the merman male cultivator hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Please wait a moment, I will go and report immediately."

With that, he vanished underwater and disappeared from sight. Li Dao was not in a hurry and exchanged glances with the remaining merfolk cultivators.

Seeing that they were all trembling, he was a little puzzled. He had clearly restrained his power, so why was the sense of oppression still so strong?

Little did they know that after entering the Inscription Realm, their Dao essence was naturally formed, and the pressure of Dao essence that they inadvertently emitted still existed even when their cultivation was hidden.

That invisible pressure had a great deterrent effect on the merfolk soldiers.

Before long, the two sisters, Qingwei and Qingsu, arrived.

One woman, dressed in a palace gown, exuded a gentle and graceful aura, while the other, in a pink silk dress, radiated a bright and cheerful charm.

Both men were delighted to see Li Dao, and Li Dao also felt a surge of joy at seeing his old friend again.

"Brother Li, what brings you here? Were you injured at the Kunpeng Nest?"

Qing Su, who was the most impatient, immediately came to Li Dao's side, asking all sorts of questions, and took Hei Sha from his shoulder into her arms.

Hei Sha instinctively felt enveloped in softness, raised his eyes slightly, and let Qing Su knead him.

Li Dao greeted them and answered their questions in detail. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, he told them the purpose of his visit.

"It's nothing, we've got it covered!" Qing Su said, patting his burgeoning chest.

Qingwei, who was standing to the side, also smiled and nodded.

Immediately, Li Dao followed them into the Mermaid Palace.

The Mermaid Palace is located on the seabed. Entering it is like entering another world. Various rare marine treasures are scattered all around, and the rich essence nourishes the entire world.

Although it is on the seabed, there is no seawater, as if it exists in another world.

When the elders of the merfolk learned that the two princesses' saviors had arrived, they brought out many of the merfolk's treasures.

Unable to resist the enthusiasm of the mermaids, Qing Su and he spent several more days exploring the Mermaid Palace.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Princess. I don't know when we will meet again. I hope you two will take good care of yourselves and we will meet again in the future."

Li Daozhen spoke solemnly to the two women in front of him, while Heisha, who had become quite plump from being fed, looked at them with reluctance.

Qing Su's eyes welled up with tears. Although she was very reluctant to part with him, she knew that Li Dao would eventually have to go back. With tears in her eyes, she said:

"Brother Li, remember to come back and visit. I will definitely cultivate diligently!"

Li Dao smiled and nodded. After bidding farewell to the two, he stepped onto the teleportation platform. With a flash of white light, his figure gradually disappeared from the spot.

Seeing Li Dao leave, Qingwei looked at her trembling younger sister who was nestled in her arms, feeling helpless and unsure how to comfort her.

On the other side, Li Dao felt that time and space were distorting before his eyes, as if a long time had passed, yet he also felt that only a moment had passed.

As the light brightened, they found themselves in a primeval forest.

He patted Black Demon's head and said:

"You've only been in the merfolk's territory for a few days, and you've already gained so much weight that I can hardly see your face anymore."

Upon hearing this, Hei Sha's gaze immediately darted away, as if embarrassed. After letting out a tiger's roar, it grew larger in front of him, returning to its previous domineering appearance.

They began traversing the dense forest with Li Dao, covering 300,000 miles of primeval mountains in half a month, and returned to Golden Feather Village.

Looking at the Golden Feather Village, shrouded in the glow of the sunset, which resembled a fairyland fallen to earth, a deep sense of longing flashed in Li Dao's eyes.

It has been more than two years since I left Jinyu Village, and I can't help but feel a little uneasy.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of Jinyu Village, a powerful array immediately rose up.

Nourished by the essence and energy, the array relying on the spiritual herb garden has become increasingly powerful.

"Xiaodao is back! Xiaodao is back!" A villager spotted him and immediately shouted.

Li Dao also entered the village with a smile. The village had changed a lot. With a sweep of his divine sense, he could feel dozens of blood-moving auras and several powerful cave heavens.

The original stone houses have now been transformed into two- or three-story wooden houses made of iron and wood.

Seeing the changes in Jinyu Village, he felt quite pleased.

Before long, Li Kai, Li Kaixin, Erniu and others came over, and Xiaohua was the happiest of them all.

Its body was covered in colorful feathers that shimmered with divine light, and its aura had reached the Spirit Transformation Realm. Its wings were even more powerful, clearly indicating that it had gained a lot from its last transformation.

"Boss, waaaaah, I missed you so much, boss!"

"Why have you been gone for so long! If you hadn't come back soon, I wouldn't be able to live!"

Upon hearing this, Li Kai's lips twitched slightly. If the other party hadn't been secretly eating the precious herbs from the herb garden every day, he would have believed it.

He shook his head and said no more. He went to Li Dao's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a face full of satisfaction:

"It's good that you're back. You've had a hard time, child."

After being nourished by this rich essence, Li Kai's life force became even stronger, and his complexion became much rosier.

Li Kaixin and Erniu also came forward to greet him.

Seeing the two of them each holding one of the two children's hands, a look of astonishment appeared on their faces.

Unexpectedly, these two, who had been rivals since childhood, ended up together.

"Hehe, Erniu said that we two cultivators from the Cave Heaven realm were born with better aptitude..."

Li Kaixin touched his nose, somewhat embarrassed, while Erniu beside him also blushed.

Li Dao smiled and nodded, then took out a bright blue bead from the sea. This was a gift from the mermaid race, and wearing it for a long time could subtly cleanse the marrow and improve one's aptitude.

Consider it a gift for the little one when we meet.

After greeting everyone, he arrived at the place where he had previously cultivated.

Back in Jinyu Village, he needed to carefully analyze what he had gained from this trip.

Chapter 189 Yesterday's Cause, Today's Effect: The Rain Clan's Settlement

With a wave of his hand, a precious cauldron, a precious furnace, and a precious halberd appeared in mid-air.

The furnace is the furnace of creation, the cauldron is a large cauldron containing precious pills, and the halberd is the trident of the sea god held by Mo Shang.

These three items are the three most valuable treasures obtained on this trip, but the greatest gains are the Heavenly Desolation within the Divine Refining Furnace and the Kunpeng Treasure Technique.

Besides these things, he also obtained many precious medicines. Even if he shared some with the village chief and the others, the remaining resources would be enough for his cultivation.

He retrieved the precious cauldron and halberd, and looked at the Creation Furnace in front of him, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"It was originally intended to be integrated into the God Refining Furnace. I think integrating it into the God Refining Furnace would also have many benefits for Tianhuang. Why not ask Tianhuang for help?"

"If Tianhuang helps, the fusion process could be much faster."

Thinking of this, he brought the Creation Furnace to Tianhuang. Before he could speak, Tianhuang's voice came over.

“In the past, the master explored the way of Yin and Yang and forged this cauldron. I never expected that this cauldron would fall into your hands.”

"Although this cauldron was forged when the master was young, it is sufficient for you. Fusing it with this immortal furnace will also promote the growth of the immortal furnace."

After saying that, Li Dao released the Creation Furnace from his hand and it landed beside Tianhuang.

With a slight tremor, an unparalleled power emanated from the Heavenly Wasteland, and the Creation Furnace slowly merged into the Divine Refining Furnace.

As the Creation Furnace was integrated, new runes were also generated.

Li Dao sensed the changes in the Divine Refining Furnace and was overjoyed. He stopped disturbing it, took out the divine essence obtained from refining the Sea God's phantom, and withdrew.

In his palm was a golden prismatic crystal, emitting a faint divine light.

This is the divine crystal obtained from refining the Sea God. The rich divine essence and profound insights it contains will surely help Li Dao's cultivation advance further.

With a thought, an altar rose beneath his feet. He sat cross-legged in the center of the altar, preparing to comprehend and absorb the divine crystals, improve his cultivation, and sort out what he had gained on this trip.

Without hesitation, he slowly closed his eyes, assuming the posture of facing the sky with his five hearts facing upwards. The divine crystal in his arms emitted a dazzling divine light, and strands of golden threads slowly seeped into his pores, refining his physique and enhancing his cultivation.

Li Dao's mind was clear, and all sorts of accumulated insights surged into his heart. The divine halo behind him rose up, pulling him into the starry space.

Within the starry space, runes surged like the sea, and the Dao essence emanating from his body made him seem like an innate deity, wholeheartedly comprehending the Great Dao.

While Li Dao was cultivating in seclusion, every villager in Jinyu Village received a considerable amount of resources and all immersed themselves in cultivation.

Even Xiao Hua, who didn't like cultivation, began to cultivate in seclusion after seeing that Hei Sha's cultivation was about to surpass hers again.
