Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant - Chapter 1678: 136: Beginning of Fusion

Chapter 1678: Chapter 136: Beginning of Fusion

As the Taoist field was established, Wang Ba did not linger and soon returned to the sect.

“Ashamed, we couldn’t help at all.”

Liang Wuji said with slight embarrassment.

After being severely injured by Han Yanzi, Liang Wuji barely managed to recover with the help of several Immortal Ascension cultivators from Wanxiang Sect. Now residing near Wanxiang Sect, he felt a bit more restrained and cautious than before.

It wasn’t that Wanxiang Sect made things difficult for him; it was just human nature and circumstance that made even someone as experienced as Liang Wuji unable to avoid conventionality.

Wang Ba sincerely said:

“Taoist Friend Liang, without the undying divine tree your sect lent, the Taoist field’s promotion might not have had such excellent results.”

Zhao Feng also spoke:

“Our two sects are brothers in alliance; there’s no need for such formality.”

Liang Wuji forced a smile at these words.

Wang Ba saw it and sighed slightly in his heart.

The Longevity Sect pledged allegiance to Wanxiang Sect, but the relationship between the two sects was indeed unusual, and now it was truly challenging to navigate the intricacies of their interaction.

However, these are minor details, and Wang Ba did not want to elaborate for now. After informing Zhao Feng and the elders about the method to open the Taoist field, he shared his plans:

“I will leave the sect for a while again, but if any changes occur, I will return immediately.”

Hearing Wang Ba’s words, everyone felt a slight relief in their hearts.

Whether it was the previous battle with Martial Ancestor Wang Xu in Zhongsheng Continent or earlier, Han Yanzi’s sneak attack on the Longevity Sect, both incidents made them deeply realize the sect’s plight due to the absence of top-tier cultivators.

Although Hui Yunzi Ancestor was present, he was in slumber and might not be able to intervene timely.

And Wang Ba was now considered the most elite among entire Jin, apart from Hui Yunzi Ancestor; no one of his peer or predecessor could compare.

Thus, with Wang Ba’s assurance, at least they need not worry about being as passive as before.

However, Wang Ba’s next words left them stunned.

“Cultivate well, do not compete for victory, if necessary, temporarily endure… I perceive the impending calamity is close at hand if we do not conserve our essence and Qi properly, it might be difficult to cope.”

Wang Ba said solemnly.

All cultivators were filled with awe upon hearing these words.

Wang Ba’s cultivation now stands at the pinnacle of Jin, yet even he speaks so gravely, how could they dare underestimate the situation? Especially since Wang Ba’s previous predictions for the Longevity Sect had been validated, so everyone was privately attentive.

Wang Ba observed this, nodded slightly, and then bowed to the crowd, Divine Patterns emerged, and his figure instantly disappeared.

Northsea Continent.

At the bottom of the Northern Ice Abyss.

In the dark cold wind blowing repeatedly, a Divine Pattern emerged, followed shortly by a figure appearing in this icy cave.

Clad in green, standing with hands behind his back, there was no doubt it was Wang Ba.

“Young friend, you’re here?”

Below, on the large, fierce turtle’s head, the youthful figure of Xuan Yuanzi quietly formed, smiling as he looked at the suddenly arrived Wang Ba.

Wang Ba, with a hint of politeness, greeted Xuan Yuanzi with a bow:

“Wang Ba greets senior.”

Xuan Yuanzi nodded with a smile but suddenly exclaimed lightly, his gaze narrowed as he looked at Wang Ba, seemingly noticing something, with surprise in his eyes:

“… In such a short time, you seem to have improved quite a bit.”

“Ashamed, only at Dao Domain Perfection of Class I now.”

Wang Ba responded with a faint smile without any joy.

Upon hearing Wang Ba’s words, Xuan Yuanzi shook his head:

“No, I’m not talking about your Dao Domain, but…”

He furrowed his brow and then said:

“I don’t know how to put it. It feels like there’s something different about you compared to before… Let me put it this way, before, your progress was fast, but it seemed you hadn’t ‘achieved Dao,’ whereas now, you seem to have the flavor of ‘achieving Dao.’

“Achieve Dao?”

Wang Ba was slightly stunned.

Then he smiled knowingly.

He understood Xuan Yuanzi’s meaning; to achieve Dao, to some extent, is to know the rules of the world’s operation, to know how to wield them, how to learn from them, and even how to fuse them into one’s being.

He had merged with the realm membrane for over a hundred years, day and night observing, analyzing those black and white nodes. Although now only at Dao Domain Perfection of Class I, in reality, he had a far superior understanding of cultivation Dao Domain than his current realm.

With a high vantage point, he naturally had a very clear direction for his subsequent cultivation.

From this perspective, Wang Ba had indeed ‘achieved Dao.’

Just merely initial ‘achievement’ of Dao, and someday when he fully comprehends all the rules inside Little Cang World, he will truly have achieved Dao.

And when Xuan Yuanzi sensed the significance in Wang Ba’s smile, his heart tinged with excitement, and his expression couldn’t help but reveal eagerness:

“Have you truly ‘achieved Dao’? How did you accomplish this? You’re merely at Immortal Ascension, why…?”

Yet Wang Ba did not keep secrets either, instantly sharing his feelings and insights after Body Merging with Heaven and Earth.

It wasn’t just the cultivation of Dao Domain, it was also the comprehension of the underlying rules of Little Cang World, formed by a variety of ‘Dao.’

Xuan Yuanzi, with such cultivation realm, naturally sensed the sincerity without concealment in Wang Ba’s words.

A trace of joy appeared on his face.

However, it wasn’t long before this trace of joy turned into amazement and helplessness, seeing Wang Ba still continuing, he interrupted with a bitter smile, shaking his head:

“I don’t quite understand what you’re saying; enough… I deserved to be trapped here.”

Wang Ba was slightly startled, then reacted as well.

If Xuan Yuanzi could ‘achieve Dao’ and comprehend Little Cang World’s rules, then with his cultivation realm and so much time, it would be impossible to remain trapped here.
