Chapter 1810 More Than Nine Paths
Li Yanchu's martial arts training progressed much faster.

His martial arts are not all-encompassing, but rather follow the simplest and most direct path, proving the way through force.

While this simple and direct method of enlightenment lacks variety, its advantages are quite obvious.

That's fast.

Li Yanchu became a Martial Dao Master in the shortest amount of time.

This is a kind of acquired path. Originally, there was no such path in the world. People tempered their bodies, honed their muscles and bones, and fought in close combat, which is how martial arts came into being.

While it is quick to comprehend lower-level Dao principles, their power is also limited.

After Li Yanchu mastered the Dao of Martial Arts, he possessed immense power in his battles against opponents.

Moreover, he does not only cultivate martial arts; his eight innate paths—cause and effect, reincarnation, primordial chaos, and Taiyi—are the highest-level paths in the universe.

Now that Li Yanchu has become the master of the Eight Innate Paths, probably no one is more exquisite in his transformations, so his martial arts are terrifyingly effective in enhancing combat power.

Since the creation of the alien universe and the Great Thousand Universe, no one has ever become a Dao Master through martial arts cultivation.
Li Yanchu was also the first martial arts master in the world.

When those Dao Lords from other realms first taught Dao techniques in the Hong Realm, although they chose some low-level Daos, they were still innate Daos such as earth, wind, water, and fire. They were just relatively low-level, so they were very easy to comprehend.

Now that Li Yanchu has cultivated to the level of a martial arts master, he exudes a solemn aura that he has never felt on any other path.

He was the first martial arts master in history, and since then, all martial arts practitioners have looked up to him.

"The inheritance of martial arts seems to be somewhat weak."

At this moment, Li Yanchu's mind was clear and he suddenly realized the evolution of martial arts.

There are quite a few martial arts practitioners, with a huge number at the bottom, but very few achieve anything significant.

Because once one's cultivation level improves, one will no longer be fixated on martial arts, but will instead cultivate other techniques, comprehend the innate Great Dao, and achieve success through this means. Martial arts is merely a means to an end in the early stages.

After Li Yanchu cultivated martial arts to the level of Dao Master, terrifying sounds echoed through the void with every wave of his hand.

His internal energy and blood had reached an extremely terrifying level.

For Li Yanchu, whether it is the innate Dao or the acquired Dao, the only difference in cultivation speed is that there is no real bottleneck.

Therefore, after he mastered martial arts, the power of his fists and feet increased many times over, which was enough.

Moreover, martial arts were not something he discovered through evidence; he had an excellent foundation. In countless life-and-death battles, although he used the innate Dao, the essence of martial arts was always present.

Therefore, Li Yanchu's martial arts cultivation was more solid, far surpassing that of other deduced Dao principles.

After Li Yanchu mastered martial arts, he did not act rashly, but instead attained Nirvana.

Instead, he turned to cultivating the two great Daos of time and space.

These two Great Daos are extremely profound and are not among the Nine Innate Daos, but Li Yanchu vaguely felt that these two Great Daos were definitely no less than the Nine Innate Daos, and were even more exquisite.

Throughout the entire universe beyond this realm, the most supreme ironclad laws of the Nine Innate Paths are prevalent, and Li Yanchu has no intention of defying these ancient cosmic rules.
He doesn't value that at all.

Nine paths it is, he doesn't care about these things, as long as it can improve his strength.

Soon, Li Yanchu successively cultivated the Dao of Time and the Dao of Space.

It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to attain enlightenment. It is already very difficult to cultivate even one of the nine innate paths, and the difficulty of cultivating even one of them is unimaginable.

However, Li Yanchu actually cultivated the Eight Innate Paths in a short period of time, and also became the only Martial Dao Master and Time and Space Dao Master since the creation of the world.
This talent is simply extraordinary.

After Li Yanchu attained the Dao of Time and the Dao of Space, he had some insights.

These two great paths had already been proven by others before him, unlike martial arts.
He is the only Martial Dao Master in this chaotic star sea region of the vast universe!
“I wonder who else in the Otherworld has cultivated the Great Dao of Time and Space, or perhaps they are not even in the Otherworld. What I sensed was not just the chaotic star sea region,” Li Yanchu thought to himself.

…………

The next step is the most important one: Li Yanchu intends to seek evidence-based annihilation.

The path to Nirvana is extremely dangerous to cultivate; others cultivate it in the order of the Nine Innate Paths.
Li Yanchu, fearing he would fall into a state of stagnation, stopped halfway through and, after mastering the Eight Paths, turned to martial arts cultivation.

He further cultivated the Great Dao of Time and Space as aids, which gave him the confidence to cultivate Nirvana.

The Great Dao of Nirvana is the most difficult and terrifying to cultivate, but for Li Yanchu, there seems to be no bottleneck in cultivating this Great Dao.

With the help of the Hongjie Universe's Annihilation, Li Yanchu has already cultivated to become the Dao Master of Annihilation.

However, at this moment, Li Yanchu not only saw the scene of Hongjie turned into ruins, but also the scene of the alien continent being torn apart and its life force being greatly reduced.

At this moment, he was perfectly clear-headed.

It turns out that was also the beginning of the Great Dao's annihilation. It was the calamity that propelled it from behind, using slaughter and destruction to ultimately evolve it into annihilation.

Soon, Li Yanchu achieved the Dao of Nirvana.

However, after Li Yan first cultivated the other Great Daos, he would create a cave abyss.
Within the cave abyss, there are all things, all composed of Li Yanchu's Great Dao, such as his Chaos Great Dao, Slaughter Great Dao, Calamity Great Dao, and the most profound Time Great Dao and Space Great Dao.

This cave was not a place that Li Yanchu found from beyond the heavens to rely on for his power, but rather one that he created within his body, where the Great Dao evolves into everything, like a universe.

In some ways, it is like the origin of the universe.

However, the true origin of the universe contains all kinds of great principles, while his abyss contains only one pure great principle.

However, after Li Yanchu cultivated the Dao of Nirvana, the situation became somewhat different.

After Li Yanchu became the Dao Lord of Nirvana, he did not cultivate any caves or abysses, but instead cultivated something extremely terrifying.

…………

At this moment, Li Yanchu had a being similar to the origin of the universe in front of him. However, the origin of the universe was full of boundless vitality, and its internal evolution was rich with various great Daos.

Li Yanchu cultivated the Origin of Annihilation, which was extremely terrifying, as if it could devour everything and turn it into annihilation, the exact opposite of the Origin of the Universe.

As for the Origin of Annihilation, Li Yanchu dared not put anything into it, as the power it revealed was terrifying.

In other words, Li Yanchu has not only mastered Nirvana, but also the Eight Innate Paths, Martial Path, Void, and Time, which is why he was able to suppress it and prevent any trouble from arising in the Great Dao of Nirvana.

“Cultivating these several Great Daos is not the end. I want to continue to try to verify these Great Daos on their own. When I take action, it will not be a single Great Dao, but several Great Daos, or nine or twelve Great Daos, will erupt at the same time.” Li Yanchu murmured to himself.

After mastering the Nine Innate Paths, he quickly discovered his problem.

The nine paths are relatively independent; he can only use two, or at most three, of the nine paths at a time.

Compared to other Dao Lords, this only means that his Dao power is more profound, and he has access to a wider variety of Daos and more methods.

Li Yanchu had a suspicion that this was definitely not the true power of cultivating all nine paths simultaneously.

When he made his move earlier, he had experienced a terrifying boost when he integrated the Great Dao of Calamity into Annihilation. He vaguely sensed that this was the true mystery of cultivating all nine Daos simultaneously. "Although my Dao power is much stronger than before, it is still far behind that of the three Dao Lords."

Li Yanchu has only refined the killing Dao of a dozen universes so far, which is even less than that of the ancient alien Dao Lords.

People like Jun Wushuang and Guo Huchan each refined at least dozens of them.

In terms of Dao power, Li Yanchu still has some shortcomings.

In his daily life, he strives to comprehend his cultivation and attempts to integrate the nine innate paths.

This is a very bold attempt.

Meanwhile, Guo Huchan, Jun Wushuang, and Tianyang Daozhu, who were outside, were unaware that Li Yanchu had actually come such a long way on the path of cultivation.

When Li Yanchu encounters difficulties in his cultivation, he doesn't get lost in them. He withdraws himself and enters the cave, where he also spends time with his Daoist partner.

The chaotic abyss within his body was the most expansive, a vast continent faintly resembling a small alien realm, incredibly sturdy, with layers upon layers of heavens also constructed.

On the continent lie numerous immortal mountains, their peaks and lakes all formed by the Great Dao of Chaos, no less magnificent than any sacred land in other realms.

His Daoist companions cultivated in the Ninth Heaven of the Cave Abyss, while the rest were either in the Immortal Mountain or in other heavens.

The fact that the Chaos Cave has been opened up to this scale demonstrates how profound Li Yanchu's understanding of the Great Dao of Chaos is, a truly terrifying level.

Li Yanchu also looked forward to the day when he could evolve life from chaos and create a universe. Then, what he controlled was a chaotic abyss or a chaotic universe?
Li Yanchu couldn't help but look forward to that day's splendor.

However, what he needs most right now is to improve his cultivation and survive in this foreign land.

Before the Jing Realm is destroyed, raise your cultivation to a level that no one dares to provoke, or kill all potential enemies, such as the three Dao Lords, or Jing Qing.

Even overseas envoys were very hostile towards him, and Li Yanchu was also very wary of that Dao Domain, so he had to make preparations in advance.

The Nine Paths of Innate Realm that he has now comprehended have an incredibly powerful effect on the Great Dao, and even a casual word or two of guidance can greatly benefit people.

Fang Youqing's cultivation improved the fastest.

That day, she sensed something, and the Great Dao began to stir wildly.

Taiyi is the ancestor of all paths. When ordinary people cultivate Taiyi, they sometimes first cultivate other innate paths, such as Yin and Yang, Creation, or wind, rain, thunder, lightning, water, fire, etc., in an attempt to make their Taiyi path more profound and fill in their framework.

But Fang Youqing is different.

Her starting point was too high; she directly observed Li Yanchu's Nine Innate Paths.

What she learned was the true teachings of Taiyi passed down by Li Yanchu.

That day, when she sensed the Taiyi Dao becoming turbulent, her Dao heart was stirred, and she immediately sent a telepathic message to Li Yanchu.
“My husband, I may be about to attain enlightenment.”

Li Yanchu quickly opened the Chaos Cave, and out of it emerged a woman of unparalleled beauty, her long dress trailing on the ground, exuding an air of elegance.

Even though this Empress of the Jing Realm lived in seclusion in the cave, her noble air was still impossible to ignore.

Li Yanchu said, "I am tainted by too much calamity, so whether I attain enlightenment in another realm or not will not have much impact. But you are different. I will go to the Star Sea with you."

Fang Youqing said softly, "Okay."

The two then left the Daosheng Palace at Longfeng Cliff.

Li Yanchu transmitted his voice to Tianyang Dao Master, Guo Huchan, and others.

"Fellow Daoists, I have something to attend to and will be leaving Dao Sheng Palace temporarily."

They quickly arrived in the sea of ​​stars, and with their current cultivation levels, the ferry guards naturally couldn't stop them.

The intensity of the inter-regional checks has weakened considerably. Now that they have arrived in the Star Sea, Fang Youqing has begun to attempt to prove his Dao.

Soon, the Taiyi Qi from the sea of ​​stars converged towards Fang Youqing.

However, at the same time, the Taiyi Qi from another realm also surged towards Fang Youqing.
"Ok?"

Li Yanchu raised an eyebrow slightly.

He himself cultivated the two Great Daos of Tribulation and Annihilation and was not afraid of getting entangled in karma. In fact, he was already within karma himself. However, he did not want Fang Youqing to get entangled in this karma.

However, I never expected that Fang Youqing would prove his Dao in the chaotic star sea today, and that he would still be the master of the Great Dao of another realm!
Fang Youqing also sensed something at this moment, and exchanged a glance with Li Yanchu, giving Li Yanchu a reassuring look.

The two had a great understanding; many things were conveyed through eye contact, without needing to be said.

Fang Youqing didn't want Li Yanchu to continue worrying. Li Yanchu had kept them in the cave, and Fang Youqing knew this was to prevent them from facing the calamity.

The situation remains the same, which shows that many things cannot be avoided at all costs; some arrangements cannot be avoided even if you try.

Fang Youqing focused all her efforts on comprehending the Great Dao of Taiyi.

The Great Dao of Taiyi contains traces of Li Yanchu's other eight innate paths, which are quite abundant.

Li Yanchu's teachings on the Taiyi Dao were also quite remarkable. Fang Youqing's cultivation began to surge at this time, and she soon became a Taiyi Dao Master.

A new Master of the Taiyi Sect has been born!

Originally, the Taiyi Dao Master of the other realm was Yun Taicang, whose Immortal Slaughtering Blade was a supreme weapon of slaughter, but he himself cultivated the Taiyi Dao.

Now that Yun Taicang has perished, Li Yan has just become the Taiyi Dao Master, and Fang Youqing has followed suit.

Fang Youqing's aura underwent a dramatic change at this moment.

"Husband!"

Fang Youqing was somewhat excited.

She also wanted to contribute to Li Yanchu's cause, instead of always hiding in the cave under Li Yanchu's protection.

She was extremely excited at that moment.

Li Yanchu smiled and said, "Congratulations."

Fang Youqing said, "Thanks to my husband's teachings, the Taiyi True Teachings you passed on are so amazing that they can help me become a Dao Lord in such a short time. It's simply unimaginable."

The evidence-based method that Li Yanchu passed down to her aligns with the principle that Taiyi is the ancestor of all paths and contains the true teachings of all paths.

Fang Youqing also made a breakthrough through this experience, and her heart was filled with excitement.

The two smiled at each other and returned to the foreign land hand in hand.

After returning to the Dao Sheng Palace at Longfeng Cliff, Li Yanchu introduced Fang Youqing to Jun Wushuang, Guo Huchan, and Tianyangzi.

Although the three were arrogant and haughty, they now followed Li Yanchu's lead and were very polite to Fang Youqing. Even the most domineering Guo Huchan did not show the slightest impatience.
