Chapter 688 The Body of the Great Dao
Xu Chen remained expressionless as he listened to Qian Ming explain the power of the most powerful innate treasures.
"Let me put it another way. You know the Divine Tree, right? It can barely be considered a top-tier innate treasure."
"The difference between the most supreme innate treasure and an ordinary innate treasure is equivalent to the difference between an ordinary Grand Venerable and you now."
Upon hearing Qianming's explanation, Xu Chen looked surprised.
“Is the gap so big?”
"Of course, it is rumored that the most outstanding innate treasures have the opportunity to be upgraded to Xuanhuang treasures."
"But in my long river of time, the most important thing about the top innate treasure, the Divine Dao Tree, is that it has an owner, and I can't afford to offend it."
"Of course, you can go into the Divine Tree and pick a few fruits without any problem."
"But if you really want to shake its foundation, it will definitely attract the attention of the master behind it." Qianming hurriedly added when he saw that Xu Chen's expression was not right.
"So you feel that the treasure trove contains the most supreme innate treasures?" A glint of light flashed in Xu Chen's eyes.
"Yes, if I had one or two top-tier innate treasures, I might not have been in such a sorry state when I faced a powerful figure above the Great Dao."
Qianming's face showed a complicated expression. Back then, when he faced that powerful figure on the Great Dao, although he escaped, the price he paid was enormous.
"It seems that after I advance to the Saint Venerable level, it will be necessary for me to go with you."
As Xu Chen spoke, he gently waved his hand, and a giant sword called the Sky-Slaying Sword, forged from the embryos of more than a dozen innate sword treasures, appeared in front of him, radiating a majestic and terrifying sword intent.
"What level do you think this innate treasure is?"
The colossal sword that cleaved the heavens flew toward a thousand lives.
"It can be considered a mid-grade innate treasure. If an ordinary sword dao saint-level expert can bring out the full power of this innate treasure, he can hold his own against an invincible saint-level expert for a period of time."
"It's a rare treasure. If a battle breaks out in the future, how about I borrow it for a while?"
Qianming looked at the giant sword Zhan Cang and his eyes emitted a golden light.
We'll see when the time comes.
Xu Chen sheathed the Azure Sky-Slaying Greatsword and had a general idea of what innate treasures were, but he also had a question in his mind: why were the innate treasures he had refined in the Holy White Space all of them low-grade?
"Didn't you ever think about changing your body? The Xuanxue Clan has significant limitations. When faced with a powerful opponent who counters you, you have no way to resist."
Xu Chen gently raised his hand, and a wisp of holy light appeared in his palm.
The previously languid Qianming immediately sat up straight, looking at the holy light source in Xu Chen's hand with apprehension.
"There isn't a good alternative right now, we'll replace it when we find one."
"Also~"
A rift was torn open in the void, revealing a secret realm within.
"I was planning to tell you about this later, but since you're here today, I'll show you my recent masterpiece."
Qianming got up and led Xu Chen into the spatial rift.
Upon entering, Xu Chen saw the brain of the powerful figure on the Great Dao.
Within the minds of these powerful beings on this Great Dao, a special life force is pulsating.
"Aren't you afraid of attracting even more powerful figures on the Great Dao by cultivating something like this?" Xu Chen couldn't help but ask as he sensed the pulsating life force in his mind.
"Therefore, I will not release it unless I am completely confident in fighting against a powerful being above the Great Dao."
Qianming led Xu Chen to the very core of the brain.
An infant of an unknown race was enveloped in a transparent shield, and a special power surged from the brain of the child on the Great Dao and poured into the shield.
"You shouldn't have told me this. Just focus on nurturing it yourself."
Xu Chen examined the life form inside the protective shield and spoke.
"Given our relationship, it won't be a problem for me to tell you."
"Furthermore, the energy in the brains of powerful beings on the Great Dao can give birth to a second one."
"I used the first one as my main body. I originally thought of using the second one as my clone, but after thinking about it, I realized that I already have enough backup plans, so using this one as a clone would be a waste."
"I wonder if you'd be interested~"
"A body containing a trace of the Dao Source above the Great Dao is most suitable for use as an avatar, or for use as the main body in the future."
At this moment, Qianming was like a salesperson, telling Xu Chen about all the benefits of this body.
"Stop talking about the benefits, just name your price."
"Or tell me what you want?" Xu Chen saw through Qianming's thoughts at a glance.
"If the most supreme innate treasure is found in the treasure trove, give it to me," Qianming said, revealing his ultimate goal.
"I see, I see."
Xu Chen pondered for a moment.
"If I discover the most supreme innate treasure and control it first, I will exchange it with you after you have finished nurturing my body."
"If it were at any other time, there would definitely be no problem."
"If there really is a top-tier innate treasure, I would find it very useful. I need to spend some time in the early stages," Qianming said.
"Deal." Xu Chen's lips curled up slightly.
"Good~"
After the deal was completed, Xu Chen took his leave and returned to the Dao Gate Domain.
Outside the main realm of the Daoist sect, a newly created Great Venerable World is silently revolving around its main realm.
This newly added Great Venerable World is the exclusive cave dwelling of the Great Xu and the Two Xu.
As soon as Xu Chen entered, he sensed that Da Xu and Er Xu were chatting and drinking tea on a mountaintop.
"This scene is quite rare~"
On a snow-capped mountaintop, Da Xu and Er Xu were enjoying tea in a pavilion when Xu Chen emerged from the void not far away.
"The power above that Great Dao is truly terrifying. The protective array it constructed is as flimsy as paper and does not provide any resistance whatsoever."
"So Da Xu and I are brainstorming, thinking about whether we can refine or set up a barrier that can withstand the existence of powerful beings on the Great Dao." Er Xu put down his teacup, his expression complicated.
"The levels are different, it's impossible to withstand it, and this has nothing to do with the formation you set up."
Xu Chen sat down beside the two of them and handed them a tea set.
The two Xus naturally took it and started brewing tea.
"A grand formation set up by a typical innate treasure can only barely withstand an invincible Saint Venerable Realm expert."
"If we really want to withstand the powerhouses above the Great Dao, we need more and stronger innate treasure embryos."
As he spoke, Da Xu took out a spatial-type innate treasure embryo.
The spatial power emanating from this embryo is even stronger than that of ordinary innate spatial treasures.
"Even innate treasures are divided into levels, and the strongest and the weakest are worlds apart."
"If you were to refine this innate treasure embryo of the space element, it should barely qualify as a mid-grade innate treasure," Xu Chen commented.
“I know, this is the only time that Erxu and I have encountered a pre-heaven treasure embryo in all these years. I’m reluctant to use this one.” Daxu looked at the pre-heaven treasure embryo with a hint of affection in his eyes.
"Take your time to brainstorm, don't rush." "When I advance to the Saint Venerable Realm, I will visit the treasure trove of the powerful on the Great Dao. Perhaps there will be an even stronger innate treasure embryo there."
Upon hearing this, Da Xu's eyes lit up.
"Alright, then I'll be able to forge an even stronger innate treasure for you!"
"Then wait for me~"
After Xu Chen finished speaking, he left the cave world of Da Xu and Er Xu and began to wander in the Daoist Domain.
"Recover my mental state, advance to Saint Venerable, find the treasure trove, and locate the main realm of all races..." Xu Chen slowly planned what would happen next.
Thirty thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, Xu Chen's state of mind had returned to a state of complete peace.
Within the Holy White Space, forty-nine perfect Dao powers began to merge and impact Xu Chen's bottleneck.
Xu Chen's own Saint Venerable bottleneck was shattered as easily as glass.
But after the sprint, the power of the forty-nine Great Daos began to sublimate.
After the sublimation, each of the Great Dao powers began to mutually construct a Great Dao Body unique to Xu Chen.
However, during the construction, due to the overwhelming power of the forty-nine Great Dao forces, a resistance from within the Great Dao was felt as soon as they were integrated.
This resistance was so strong that Xu Chen suddenly felt a bit out of control.
'boom! ’
Xu Chen exploded into a blood mist, its terrifying shockwave capable of instantly melting even a Saint Venerable Realm expert.
With his consciousness revived, Xu Chen calmly began to review the mistakes he made when constructing the body that merged with the Great Dao.
"This path to enlightenment is truly difficult!"
Xu Chen carefully considered the path he had taken on the Great Dao. Without the help of the Holy White Space, he would never have dared to break through to such an extreme.
It's possible that at the very beginning, the hurdle of igniting the blood and qi to create the lamp of blood and qi was the one that got stuck.
"I wonder how many times I'll have to self-destruct before I can advance to the Saint Venerable Realm."
Having learned from his first self-destruction, Xu Chen attempted to break through again.
The bottleneck of the Saintly Venerable Realm seemed to be nothing, and it was easily broken through. However, when the power of the Great Dao after sublimation condensed into the body of the Great Dao, it was once again unable to control this power and self-destructed.
Xu Chen was resurrected and continued to review the game and make breakthroughs.
After hundreds of attempts, Xu Chen finally got a vague answer.
"With my own power of controlling the Great Dao, I can at most control thirty-six kinds of sublimated Great Dao power to condense the Great Dao body."
Xu Chen, in the Holy White Space, broke through the bottleneck this time with the power of 36 Great Daos, and then controlled the sublimated power of the Great Daos to condense the Great Dao Body.
This time it went extremely smoothly. Xu Chen broke through to the Saint Venerable Realm with ease and felt the great power of the Great Dao controlled by the Saint Venerable Realm.
However, this breakthrough was merely Xu Chen's way of verifying his own intuition.
"If you're going to use cheats, you have to go for the high-end version!"
Xu Chen once again attempted to break through to the Saint Venerable realm using forty-nine Great Daos within the Holy White Space.
As a result, after thousands of attempts, he became increasingly experienced in condensing the body of the Great Dao.
However, he still couldn't control the forty-nine kinds of Great Dao power after the sublimation.
Inside a beautifully decorated hall, Xu Chen humbly sought guidance from Qian Ming.
"Most Saint Venerable Realm experts can barely maintain a stable Dao Body when they first advance to the next level."
"Therefore, most powerful individuals spend a long time refining their own Great Dao Body after advancing to the Saint Venerable Realm. Unfortunately, the Great Dao paths they cultivate are different, and their Great Dao Bodies are even more unpredictable."
"The only thing I can tell you is that each sublimated Great Dao will not be dissolved into other sublimated Great Daos. To construct one's own Great Dao body, one must perfectly control these sublimated Great Daos, but for a being who has just broken through the bottleneck of Saint Venerable, it is certainly impossible to perfectly control them."
Qianming paused here and then led Xu Chen into the brain domain above the Great Dao.
"Will what you say later involve such a huge causal chain?" Xu Chen asked, looking at the great array that concealed causality set up outside his mind domain on the Great Dao.
"It is indeed involved. If this gets out and the gods find out, even the strongest on the Great Dao cannot protect them."
Upon hearing Qianming's words, Xu Chen became interested.
“I once traveled among a holy race that was dependent on the Hongmeng Clan, and I inadvertently learned some secrets.”
"When the Great Venerables of the Hongmeng Clan advance to the Saint Venerable level, they will use three mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining Great Dao forces to construct their own Great Dao Body."
"But the mutual generation and restraint involved in that sublimated power of the Great Dao are much deeper and broader, no longer the mutual generation and restraint of the Five Elements."
"Just like the path of body refinement, the path of holy yang, and the path of blood, the three paths after their sublimation are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining."
Just as Qianming was about to continue, a look of horror suddenly appeared on her face.
"That's all I can say. If I say another word, the divine punishment of the Hongmeng Clan will come down."
"The Great Dao, which is the result of the sublimation of these three, can be considered to be mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining."
"Anyway, you should give that opportunity a try. Trying more things can't hurt."
Qianming brought Xu Chen out of the brain domain above the Great Dao.
"If there are two top-tier innate treasures in that treasure trove, I'll lend them to you when you need to accomplish something important. I'll also lend you a set of mid-grade innate treasures," Xu Chen said to Qian Ming before leaving.
"No need for formalities, I'll definitely come to you if I need anything." Qianming smiled and waved goodbye to Xu Chen.
Within the Holy White Space, Xu Chen, who once again broke through to the Saint Venerable Ascension Dao with the power of 49 Great Daos, began to experiment with the mutual generation and restraint between the Great Daos after the ascension.
This attempt took millions of years.
As soon as Xu Chen returned to the main realm of the Great Stream Sect, all the powerful Saint Venerables of the human race came to his door.
"Advancing to the Saint Venerable realm is more difficult than I imagined, so I'll have to wait a while longer," Xu Chen explained to the human Saint Venerable realm experts who had arrived.
"The power of the Great Dao after its sublimation is indeed difficult to control. When I advanced to the Saint Venerable level, I risked my life to barely condense the body of the Great Dao."
"It took me tens of millions of years to refine my Great Dao Body at the Saint Venerable Realm," said the Profound Cauldron Saint Venerable, recounting the scene when he advanced to the Saint Venerable Realm.
"Don't rush, advance to Saint Venerable when you are confident." The Human Emperor said, taking out a jade slip.
"The essence of the Great Dao varies from person to person, so we have nothing to offer in terms of guidance."
"This contains the insights of human race's Saint Venerable Realm experts on condensing the Great Dao Body. You can refer to it."
Accompanied by the Emperor's voice, the jade slip flew toward Xu Chen.
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty the Human Emperor!" Xu Chen said gratefully as he accepted the jade slip.
"You're welcome~"
After entertaining the numerous Saint Venerable Realm experts of the human race, Xu Chen returned to his private cave dwelling.
At this moment, the whole family was waiting for him, all lined up neatly.
Looking at his family, Xu Chen decided that he wouldn't rush to break through to the Saint Venerable realm for the next ten thousand years, but would instead spend more time with his family first.
After the family finished their meal in harmony, they went to the garden to admire the stars at night.
"Chen'er, don't put too much pressure on yourself." Xu Qiangjia patted Xu Chen's shoulder. (End of Chapter)
