Chapter 223 Heading to the Dark Holy Realm
"As expected of a saint, even though he is not particularly good at fighting, and even though he became a saint with a saintly position, he is still not someone that a quasi-saint can contend with. He could easily crush me."
"Those below the level of a sage are all ants; this isn't just empty talk."
On the Qiankun Continent, Xu Qiankun looked at the several treasures floating in front of him, his eyes flashing with divine light.
These treasures are none other than the innate supreme treasure Qiankun Cauldron, the acquired supreme treasure Po Kong Spear, the acquired supreme treasure Tianzhen Divine Palace, and the top-grade innate spiritual treasure Merit Golden Lotus.
It was sent by the avatar of the God of Heaven and Earth left on the Primordial Continent before its death.
"If I were to fight him while wearing the True Illusion Divine Armor, even if I couldn't defeat him, I could at least save my life. If I were to use the Qiankun Great World, I could indeed contend with him."
Xu Qiankun's eyes gleamed.
After his battle with Hongjun, he had gained a relatively accurate understanding of his own strength.
"The Celestial Dome is far less powerful than the Universe Great World, and the World Tree's avatar is far from having complete control over the Celestial Dome. However, if it were to truly fight against Hongjun, it would not be without the power to fight back, and Hongjun would not dare to actually attack the Celestial Dome."
Among all of Xu Qiankun's clones, the original body, who controls the Qiankun Great World, is undoubtedly the strongest, possessing combat power at the Saint level.
Besides the original body, the most powerful being the World Tree clone that controls the vast celestial world.
After all, besides its own Great Dao, the World Tree avatar also has the identity of the first World Lord of the Primordial Continent. The Celestial Great World it controls far exceeds the standard of the Great Thousand Worlds. It is extremely large even among the Great Worlds, and the power it can borrow is extremely terrifying.
More importantly, under Xu Qiankun's deliberate manipulation, the Celestial World is now teeming with countless living beings. Once the World Tree's avatar falls, the Celestial World will inevitably shatter, and all living beings within it will perish.
Given such a cause and effect, Hongjun dared not provoke it, otherwise he would surely be rejected by the Heavenly Dao.
If He attained enlightenment through the Primordial Chaos, then He wouldn't need to care about these things at all. He could confidently tell the Heavenly Dao, "If this place doesn't want me, there are plenty of other places that will."
Unfortunately, He attained enlightenment through sainthood, and if His karma becomes too heavy, He may be rejected by Heaven and fall from His sainthood.
Having finally achieved sainthood, Hongjun certainly wouldn't dare to gamble.
However, Hongjun dared not attack the Celestial Dome World, but his World Tree clone also dared not leave the Celestial Dome World, and the two were locked in a stalemate.
Let's leave it at that for now.
"Anyway, there's still plenty of time. As long as I can attain the Primordial Dao before Hongjun merges with the Dao, I'll be able to get my revenge."
"But I really should go out and explore, experience more battles."
Xu Qiankun thought to himself that after his brief encounter with Hongjun, he had discovered many problems.
First, they lack combat experience and are prone to making mistakes in life-or-death battles, being forced to fight desperately as soon as they engage in combat.
Secondly, he has too few methods. Although he has mastered many great divine abilities, and many of these abilities are extremely powerful, they are rather rigid and not applicable to all situations.
When facing an opponent at the level of a saint, neither the Five-Colored Divine Light nor the Five Elements Annihilation can affect them as much as a tickle, posing no threat whatsoever.
Even Xu Qiankun, whose power is the strongest, did not dare to use it on Hongjun, because it was impossible to trap Him.
"It seems I still have to follow the path of this world; I must create my own combat system."
Xu Qiankun looked towards the Qiankun Continent.
More than 1.1 million epochs have passed since he was expelled from the source world, which is more than 11 billion years in Earth time.
The diameter of the Qiankun Continent now exceeds 100 trillion light-years, and it has successfully integrated six major paths: the Qiankun Great Path, the Life Origin Great Path, the Space Great Path, the Five Elements Great Path, the Yin-Yang Great Path, and the Fire Path Great Path.
If he hadn't focused all his energy on clearing away the Chaos Origin Dao that had merged into the Great World of Qiankun, the seventh Destruction Origin Dao would have already been successfully integrated long ago.
Even so, the Qiankun Continent now lies in the Origin Continent, which looks like a basketball with a table tennis ball hanging on it. Although the difference is still obvious, it has already begun to take the shape of a twin world.
Moreover, as the Qiankun Continent continues to expand, the strength of the world barrier has become increasingly higher, not much worse than the Origin World. Safety is now guaranteed, and he no longer needs to be constantly vigilant, fearing that he might be targeted by a naturally primordial being if he is not careful.
"The Great World of Qiankun is indeed very important and cannot be taken for granted. Therefore, we should leave the strongest Qiankun God and Demon clone behind just in case."
"The fusion of the Great Dao is becoming increasingly difficult. The next seventh Great Dao will take at least 10 billion years to complete. There's no point in rushing it. So we'll just leave two clones to do this work."
Leaving one body behind to remain on the Origin Continent allows them to explore treasure lands while simultaneously comprehending the Great Dao and creating secret techniques.
The remaining clone left the Origin Continent, honing its skills through battles while gathering resources.
Xu Qiankun quickly made up his mind and then began to make preparations.
......
In the ancient kingdom of Thunder, Xu Qiankun found the progenitor of Thunder.
"My lord, do you intend to venture into the Dark Holy Realm?"
Upon hearing Xu Qiankun's words, Thunder Ancestor was immediately startled, followed by ecstatic joy.
Although he was initially somewhat afraid of Xu Qiankun, after all, Xu Qiankun's personality was indeed somewhat domineering, and he would kill people at the drop of a hat.
However, after so many years of getting to know him, he knew that although Xu Qiankun was domineering and had a bad temper, he was very principled. As long as he didn't offend him, there wouldn't be any problems.
Sometimes, they would even pay someone to ask them for information, although most of these payments came from his Thunder Kingdom, which speaks volumes.
If this person goes to the Dark Holy Realm, he and the Flame Wind Ancestor can curry favor with him. At that time, this person will receive the lion's share of the resources, and even if they only get a little soup, they will be able to eat their fill.
"Not bad," Xu Qiankun nodded. "I've never been to the Dark Holy Realm. Lei Ting, do you have any suggestions?"
Thunder Ancestor hurriedly said, "It just so happens that one of my clones, Flame Wind and I, is about to return to the Origin Continent. We will be back soon, and then you can come with us to the Dark Holy Realm."
Xu Qiankun knew that both the Dark Holy Realm and the Nine Rivers Holy Realm were extremely far from the Origin Continent, and it would be almost impossible for him to get there on his own.
There is only one way to get there, and that is through the teleportation channel that Yuan and the others left in the source world.
To activate the teleportation channel, a corresponding mark is required.
There are only two ways to obtain the mark: one is to have been to these two places, and the other is to be given it by Yuan and the others.
When Yuan met him, he didn't give him the corresponding mark, so obviously the second method wouldn't work. Therefore, he could only act with the Thunder Ancestor and the others.
Of course, you can also go to Di Qing.
Although Di Qing had never been to the Dark Holy Realm, he had been to the Nine Rivers Holy Realm. He could go to the Nine Rivers Holy Realm first and then transfer to the Dark Holy Realm.
However, since he could get there in one step, Xu Qiankun was naturally unwilling to take a detour. The main reason was that the power level of the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm was too low. Low-level Chaos Origin Life forms comparable to the Perfect God Emperor were considered strong, and Transcendent Level beings were extremely rare, so they were completely meaningless to him.
"it is good"
Xu Qiankun nodded in agreement.
He then began preparing for his trip.
The drop of blood that had been fused with the Primordial Dao of the Three-Tailed Hook Serpent had been refined into a secret treasure. This secret treasure looked like a pearl, but it was actually a domain.
Xu Qiankun named it "Three Absolute Domains".
Once this domain unfolds, thirty million black holes divide the space, and within the divided space, extinction light and annihilation light constantly appear.
Annihilation Light targets the physical body, while Extinction Light targets the soul.
Once the physical body is damaged, such as being shattered, it is nothing to cultivators, because once their strength reaches the ultimate realm, cultivators no longer have any vital points.
To kill it, you must either annihilate its will or obliterate all its energy.
However, if one is killed in this "Three Absolute Domains", the greatly diminished portion of their divine power will be devoured by the omnipresent black hole and used to enhance the power of this secret treasure.
Indeed, this is a treasure with potential for growth, but its growth potential is limited. It can only reach the level of a high-grade Hunyuan life form at its peak. There is no chance of it reaching the world-class level.
In addition to the "Three Absolute Domains", Xu Qiankun found four more treasures from the Infinite Treasure Vault and the Dream Domain.
The treasure obtained from the Dream Realm is a treasure called "Eye of Truth-Breaking". Its material comes from a high-level Chaos Origin life form called "Void-Breaking Being". This eye is its life core. After being nurtured by the Dream Realm for countless years, its power is extremely strong, enough to see through most of the hidden and changing methods below the world-level Chaos Origin.
The second item is a long spear, of no lower grade than the "Eye of Truth," containing extremely strong destructive power. It is called the Black Flame Spear and is the ultimate weapon of slaughter.
The third item is an hourglass called the "Time Hourglass," whose sole function is to freeze a region for a period of time, the length of which depends on the amount of power poured into it.
The last item, and the most valuable treasure Xu Qiankun obtained, was crafted from the horn of a world-class Chaos Origin life form and named the "Void Blade." Although this treasure possessed extremely formidable power, its primary purpose was not for combat, but for escaping.
Shortly after Xu Qiankun made his preparations, the Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor returned in their clones.
Xu Qiankun accompanied them to the Dark Holy Realm.
