Chapter 226: Three Flowers Summit? Destruction of the Supreme Hall
Ye Qiu’s name spread among the millions of living beings in Qin Chuan as the cheers below his feet rang out. It was like a ray of light in their despair, illuminating this world.
Ye Qiu frowned. He could slightly feel the changes in his laws.
“Hmm? What’s going on?”
Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment. He carefully sensed it. It seemed that to a certain extent, his comprehension of the laws had become deeper. The three flowers bloomed together, and there was a faint power of merit lingering in the prefecture sea.
After pondering for a long time, Ye Qiu finally understood something. “I see!”
Ye Qiu had heard before that every time a great calamity descended, there would be great fortune. The merit in his body just now was obtained by slashing at the strange giant and resolving Qin Chuan’s danger, saving a million living beings.
Although this power was very weak now, Ye Qiu only needed to accumulate a little more to attain the Dao and break through to the Emperor realm. However, this method wasn’t what he had imagined.
Ye Qiu pondered for a long time.
“Verifying Dao with merits is not my Dao. If I walk this path, wouldn’t everything I did before be for nothing?”
He had already reached the peak of the King-Ranked realm and was only a step away from entering the Martial Monarch realm. This step seemed close, but it was far away. If he didn’t have great fortune, Ye Qiu could only rely on his own comprehension to comprehend the Great Dao, fuse it with his body, and verify his Dao. Only by passing the test of the Heavenly Dao and obtaining the approval of the world could he break through to the Martial Monarch realm. Otherwise, this close, yet far, distance might not be something Ye Qiu could reach in his life.
And now, this opportunity has come. It was placed in front of Ye Qiu, but he hesitated. He fell into deep thought. Should he verify the Dao with his body, or use his sword to verify Dao, or use merit to verify the Dao and use great fortune to ascend to the Martial Monarch realm?
“Hmm…” With a soft groan, Ye Qiu seemed to understand something. He muttered to himself, “It’s indeed a very simple thing to use merit to attain the Dao after the calamity of the world. But, using merit to attain the Dao is not my Dao. If I really attain the Great Dao of the world like this, it will be disadvantageous to me.”
In the beginning, Ye Qiu’s idea was to verify the Dao with his sword and with his body. This was his initial thought, and he had already built a foundation. He could not help but hesitate when another path, which was the path of merit, appeared.
......
In terms of difficulty, verifying Dao with merit was undoubtedly the easiest, but it was also the weakest.
Therefore, Ye Qiu was very hesitant. His desire to become a Martial Monarch was indeed very great. However, in order to break through to a higher realm in the future and come into contact with higher domains, Ye Qiu was prepared to give up on this power.
Just as he was about to disperse it, suddenly, a ball of red light in his body slowly fused into a Dao Flower.
Ye Qiu was stunned.
“This… three paths opened at the same time?”
Ye Qiu was stunned. He suddenly remembered that there seemed to be three Dao Flowers in his body, right?
This third Dao Flower bloomed after Ye Qiu broke through to the King-Ranked realm. It was also blank now and he had yet to comprehend anything. It was like a piece of white paper. Ye Qiu didn’t have any law domain mixed in.
This first flower was opened by him to comprehend the Sword Dao. The second flower was used to comprehend Body Tempering when he was tempering his body. Therefore, it was mixed with the profundities of body tempering. This third flower had just bloomed and had yet to draw the path.
What Ye Qiu didn’t expect was that this power of merit actually directly entered the third Dao Flower. Moreover, their compatibility was so high that they successfully fused without any guidance from him. Not only that, this merit also fused with the Connate providence in his body and underwent some kind of fusion.
Judging from the aura, his potential was even greater. If he attained the Dao with merit, not only would he not be weak, but he would even be stronger?
Originally, when one attained the Dao with merit, they would cultivate the righteousness of the world. Coupled with the Connate providence, they represented the Heavenly Dao and instantly became incomparably fierce and domineering.
The two fused and underwent a tremendous change.
If Ye Qiu opened two more paths later on, he could use his sword to verify his Dao and his body to verify his Dao. He would open three paths at the same time and achieve the profundity of the Three Flowers Summit.
“Hiss…” Thinking of this, Ye Qiu instantly sucked in a breath of cold air. He didn’t dare to imagine such a terrifying change. If he could really succeed, he would probably not be comparable to a simple Martial Monarch realm expert. He would be at the Deva realm.
Any one of these three paths was invincible in the world, let alone three paths at the same time. If he wasn’t invincible, he might as well go home and raise pigs.
“Hehe… So this can be played like this. Interesting…” After thinking this through, Ye Qiu immediately became excited. He stopped rejecting the power of merit that he was going to give up on.
Just as he had imagined, the height of the Three Flowers Summit was unimaginable. However, it was very difficult to do this. It was hundreds of times harder than any Dao. It was very challenging, but Ye Qiu wasn’t afraid because he had a cheat.
“Hmm… I’m just so willful.” He couldn’t help but curse in his heart. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the north.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning tore through the sky and broke the silence of the night. Ye Qiu came back to his senses and stared into the distance. A million miles away, he could vaguely sense that there was an extremely powerful strange creature in that void domain.
This commotion attracted the attention of countless people. Everyone looked towards the source of the sound.
Someone exclaimed, “That’s the direction of the Supreme Hall. Could it be that… the Supreme Hall has been breached?”
“What!!!”
As soon as these words were spoken, a heated discussion instantly rang out. They looked at the extremely thick haze in the sky that swept over.
The sky where the Supreme Hall was located was filled with flames and mist.
Everyone immediately reacted. To be able to cause such destructive power, the last barrier of the Supreme Hall must have been broken.
Smoke and dust rose in the ruins. Someone sighed and said, “Sigh, what a pity! I wonder how many people died once the Supreme Hall’s mountain gate was broken.”
As soon as these words were spoken, it quickly caused many people to be dissatisfied.
“Hmph, the Supreme Hall deserves it! As soon as the riot broke out in the uninhabited region, they announced to the public that they had closed their sect and chose to protect themselves. They ignored all living beings in the world. And now, their mountain gate has been broken. Let’s see who can save them now.”
“Who among those abandoned would save them?”
Many people disliked the actions of the Supreme Hall. In the Eastern Wasteland, the Supreme Hall had always been very prestigious and respected by the world. However, this series of things had already broken the hearts of countless people.
A Holy Land that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years had now become a shameless existence in people’s hearts. It was nauseating. Clearly, most of the people present despised the Supreme Hall’s actions. They gloated when they saw them suffer.
However, someone asked in confusion, “That’s strange. Isn’t the Supreme Hall already sealed off? Why did it become the first place to fall?”
As soon as these words were spoken, it immediately attracted countless discussions.
“That’s right! Logically speaking, those ferocious beasts shouldn’t have discovered the Supreme Hall since they activated the concealment array. But now, the various Holy Lands are still safe and sound. Instead, Supreme Hall was the first to be broken through. This is indeed a little strange. Could it be that there’s a problem inside the Supreme Hall?”
Hearing the discussion below, Ye Qiu understood something. The corners of his mouth curled up into a strange smile. “Interesting. Did it look like Li? Old Mo…”
If there was a problem within the Supreme Hall, then this problem could only appear on Mo Yi. This old kid had gone all out for revenge. He had always been hiding himself and had never shown any thoughts of revenge.
Even an old fox like Qingmiao could not see anything wrong with him. He thought that it was his brainwashing that made him willing to sacrifice himself for the sect. Who would have thought that he had been enduring all this while, waiting for such an opportunity?
At this moment, millions of miles away, on a desolate mountain, as the guarding door was broken, the Supreme Hall was instantly broken by a million ferocious beasts and the Holy Land was instantly destroyed.
Standing at the top of the mountain and looking down at everything, Daoist Qingmiao was so angry that he vomited blood. He watched helplessly as the Holy Land was destroyed in his hands, and his blood surged.
“Pfft…”
“Master!” Lu Yan, who was at the side, was shocked. The Supreme Hall was in danger since the mountain gate had been broken and the battle had begun.
That old fellow, Gu Jianxuan, had fled with his precious disciple a second before the mountain gate was broken. Only Qingmiao could not bear to see his inheritance destroyed and defended the sect to the death. Now that he had fallen, who could the Supreme Hall rely on?
“Roar…”
A deafening sound came from the sea of flames as a huge beast charged over.
Lu Yan’s face turned pale. Fortunately, an elder saved him in time. However, he was also seriously injured. He dragged his heavy body and pushed Lu Yan out of the sea of flames.
Lu Yan roared and shouted, “Elder Li.”
Elder Li turned around and looked at him in despair, standing in front of the great ferocious beast. He roared, “As long as there’s life, there’s hope. Ignore me and bring the First Elder away from here. Protect the last spark of my Supreme Hall and rise again in the future!”
Elder Li generously died. After saying the last sentence, he rushed into the sea of flames with his tattered body.
Lu Yan clenched his fists and punched the air as he looked at Elder Li who had already died in the sea of flames. His heart was filled with grief and anger.
Most of the elders and disciples of the Supreme Hall were entangled by those ferocious beasts, and a small number of cowardly people had already thought of a way out and fled in advance when the sect was about to be breached. The best representatives of that were Gu Jianxuan and his little disciple.
“Damn it!” With a furious roar, Lu Yan carried his master and rushed out of the sea of flames. He carried the hopes of the Supreme Hall, tens of thousands of disciples, and elders. He could not die. As long as he was still alive, he could still rebuild the Holy Land and protect the inheritance in the future.
Under the protection of everyone, Lu Yan successfully escaped the encirclement and rushed out of the sea of flames towards the east.
