Please be my partner.

It is important to know that for a true immortal to become a Dao Lord, everything must be perfected, including the physical body, soul, spirit, mind, immortal techniques, secret arts, cultivation, and so on. Only with these as the foundation and resources can one possibly bloom the most ultimate 'flower'!

If Mellen forcibly severs her soul contract with Spike, she will not only suffer severe soul damage, but may even suffer permanent damage to her soul, which means... completely severing her path to becoming a Dao Lord!

Despite the seemingly harmonious relationship between humans and demons in Yuheng Heaven, this is only due to the domineering suppression of the Golden Jade Immortal Sect. In the overall environment of the Immortal Realm, the human and demon races are still on opposite sides.

If there's a chance to cripple a human prodigy, why wouldn't the demon race do it?!

A single sentence achieved several objectives; this demonstrates strength, vision, knowledge, and an absolute information gap!

Spike didn't know if he was over-interpreting the Cloud God, but given the current situation, he had no choice but to think about it.

Countless thoughts flashed through Spike's mind, but he calmed down and his mind became peaceful and undisturbed.

We can ignore the schemes of the Cloud Soaring God, but we must not let them affect the young man!

Suddenly, a tiny flame ignited... a flickering arc of electricity flashed across the sky...

The radiance of pure gold rippled through Spike's mind, spreading like waves, burning like a wildfire, until... it devoured the heavens and the earth!

"Boom!~"

Spike was engulfed in a fierce golden flame, and wherever he went, all the demons and monsters turned into firewood. The invisible murmurs, the distorted images, and the foul-smelling slime were all burned to ashes in the fire.

Golden flames rose up, carrying the unshakable will of heaven and earth, and transformed into a gigantic golden warhound.

The entire secret realm began to shake. The first to change was the secret chamber. The runes inscribed inside the chamber and on the coffin suddenly shone brightly, then detached from their original form and merged into the Dharma.

Next came the secret chamber, where the rutile materials transformed into a misty haze that merged into the Dharma image.

Finally, throughout the entire secret realm, a continuous stream of pale golden light shot out from the void and flew into the Dharma Image.

Under these various blessings, the aura of the Dharma Image became more and more powerful and profound. Just by standing there, the aura it emitted caused dark cracks to appear in the surrounding space.

The corrupted immortal seemed to sense the danger, stopped in his tracks, and confronted the law.

After a moment of silence...

"Woof!"

Spike launched an attack, his massive claws tearing through the air with the power to rip the heavens apart as he lunged at the Corrupted True Immortal.

The corrupted immortal's body rose with a green light, transforming into a huge, twisted Dharma form. This Dharma form was composed of countless intertwined tentacles, which could be seen twisting and inserting into the void from time to time, extending out from other places.

"Boom!~"

The collision of the two powerful Dharma forms tore the secret realm apart, revealing an even more terrifying truth below. In the void, countless overlapping tentacles were everywhere, intertwining and devouring each other, densely packed together, a sight that made one's scalp tingle.

Upon witnessing this scene, the stone monkey was momentarily stunned, and then its body began to tremble involuntarily. This was not out of fear, but out of excitement!

Fighting stronger opponents has always been Stone Monkey's favorite thing to do. Now that he has such an unimaginable opponent, how could he let Spike, who is both an opponent and a friend, steal the spotlight?!

"Roar!~"

With a roar, the stone monkey transformed into a colossal beast that stood tall and imposing, joining the battle.

Chapter 709 Summoning and the Road

Under the battle of the three colossal beings, the secret realm of the War God Palace gradually crumbled, revealing an even more bizarre and terrifying scene deep within the void.

Countless tentacles twisted and overlapped, like maggots coiled together, gnawing at the last remnants of the War God Palace. Those War God Palace disciples who had died from the pollution had now been transformed into twisted monsters, fused with the tentacles, struggling and resenting in endless pain, trying to drag all things in heaven and earth into the same abyss as themselves.

But even amidst this endless distortion, a faint light still shines, resisting the corruption of the eerie forces.

The light seemed to sense something, and suddenly emitted a blazing golden light. The tentacles wrapped in the light turned to ashes under the golden light. The next moment, the light shot out like a meteor and crashed straight into Spike's avatar.

Spike's Dharma form paused slightly, then, as if receiving a tremendous blessing, it emitted an even more surging aura.

On the other hand, the corrupted True Immortal, illuminated by the golden light emanating from the radiance, experienced a brief reduction in the distortion on his body, and a glimmer of clarity appeared in his eyes.

Faced with Spike's golden attack, the Corruption Immortal suppressed his instincts, gave up dodging, and even actively dispelled all defenses, allowing the attack to land on him.

The True Immortal of Pollution was already extremely weak under the suppression of the Immortal Realm's rules, and could only rely on the protection of the secret realm to prolong his life. He was already exhausted and his life was nearing its end, and the power of that light also had a suppressive effect on him.

Therefore, under Spike's attack, the body of the corrupted immortal immediately collapsed and disintegrated.

Sensing the approach of death, a look of relief flashed in the eyes of the Polluted Immortal. He nodded slightly to Spike, as if giving his final thanks.

"Boom!~"

A corner of the sky cracked open, and a dog and a monkey emerged from the void in a sorry state. Behind them, dense tentacles tried to continue their pursuit, but these tentacles withered and decayed the moment they extended out of the void, turning into dust.

Moreover, without the cover of the War God Palace's secret realm, even though these tentacles were hiding in the void, they began to be affected by the rules of the Immortal Realm and were gradually eliminated.

The stone monkey got up from the ground, shook off the dust, and laughed, "It was really thrilling and exciting. It's a pity that this corrupted immortal is only looking for death, so we can't have a good fight."

"But it's fortunate that it is so. If it were a true immortal in perfect condition, the two of us wouldn't be enough to be crushed by a single finger of theirs."

Then, the stone monkey looked curious and asked, "Dog, it seems you obtained some treasure before."

Spike didn't hide anything. With a paw, the ball of light that had previously merged into its body was summoned out. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a golden seal.

The stone monkey looked left and right, its face full of curiosity.

Spike explained, "This is the innate spiritual treasure 'War God Seal,' which was once the treasure of the War God Palace."

"Wow!" the stone monkey exclaimed dramatically, "You mean the magical treasure is throwing itself into my arms?"

Spike thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps it's related to the supernatural secrets of the War God Palace that I used to practice."

After shouting and yelling for a while, the stone monkey said, "Next, let's continue to explore the other secret realms of the War God Palace. I think it's impossible for every secret realm to be like this, and it's even more impossible for every secret realm to have a corrupted True Immortal."

Spike paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Never mind, I have things to do next, so I won't go on this adventure with you."

The stone monkey's expression froze, looking as if he wanted to say something but couldn't, and he scratched his ears and cheeks in frustration.

Spike patted the stone monkey's leg and laughed, "All good things must come to an end. Keep up the good work, monkey. If I surpass you by too much, I won't play with you anymore!"

The stone monkey immediately jumped up and down: "You?! You dog, you're really too confident!! Let's have a match then, next time we meet, we'll definitely have a good fight!!"

Spike laughed and said, "Okay, it's a deal!"

After watching the stone monkey leave, Spike's eyes returned to calm. Regardless of whether its previous speculation was true or not, it was not suitable to continue acting with the stone monkey for a while. Spike had also received a summons from Melen, so it was not bad to part ways like this.

Beams of light shone from beneath Spike's feet, and as ripples spread through the space, Spike's figure vanished.

Looking at Spike who had appeared before him, Mellen asked gravely, "Something happened? Our soul connection had become almost nonexistent just now."

Spike nodded and briefly explained what had happened in the War God Palace Secret Realm, then added, "That strange power was of extremely high rank. Fortunately, it was suppressed by the Celestial Realm, otherwise it probably wouldn't have been as simple as just temporarily severing our connection."

Mellen's expression turned grave as he muttered to himself, "The Cloud Soaring God?!"

Spike nodded, then shook his head and said, "I'm not sure if this is Yunxiao Divine Lord's scheme, but that's normal. Given your status in the Golden Jade Immortal Sect, even Yunxiao Divine Lord wouldn't dare to tamper with things openly, so naturally he wouldn't leave any evidence."

Mellen let out a breath and said, "These kinds of things can be judged by one's own judgment. It's really troublesome. Although we have strengthened and supplemented the Wolf Tamer many times, its level is still a bit low. This strange power can sever the connection between us. If we encounter some powerful immortal techniques, it will probably have a similar effect."

"Otherwise, with the support of remote soul synchronization, even when facing the power of a True Immortal, the danger will be greatly reduced."

"It seems that a complete transformation is now imperative."

Putting those thoughts aside for the moment, Mellen looked at Spike and asked, "Although it was dangerous, it seems like the harvest was quite good."

Spike nodded and said, "Indeed, that secret realm is actually the War God Palace's secret vault. It is not used under normal circumstances. It is only given to the sect's seed when the War God Palace encounters a great calamity, so that the War God Palace can rise again."

As he spoke, Spike took out the innate spiritual treasure, the War God Seal, and continued, "This War God Seal is one of the three innate spiritual treasures of the War God Palace. It not only contains an innate divine power, but also has many divine powers and secret techniques of the War God Palace engraved on it. It is essentially a treasure of inheritance."

"Unfortunately, many treasures in the secret realm have been corrupted and distorted over the years. However, the good news is that the battle power contained in those treasures has not been completely annihilated. Instead, it has gradually become purer and more refined in the fight against the distortion and corruption."

"Finally, perhaps it was the corrupted True Immortal who secretly helped me, or perhaps the War God Palace divine power I had cultivated reached some kind of opportunity, and all the remaining battle power in the secret realm merged into my body, and even the War God Seal took the initiative to come to me."

"The power of battle can not only improve cultivation, but also enhance the divine abilities of the War God Palace. Just that power of battle alone can save me hundreds of years of hard work."

Mellen patted Spike's head and said, "Let's rest for a few days. Next, we need to bring over our last partner."

Several days later, in an unnamed valley.

Mellen finished outlining the last rune and nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the completed valley.

What Mellen is now planning to do is to summon the Forest Wolf, who is far away in the starry universe, to the Celestial Realm.

When Mellen first arrived in the Celestial Realm, his connection with the Forest Wolf was quite vague, like an old 2G network. Although it could transmit information, the amount was too small and the content was seriously incomplete.

As Mellen's strength gradually increased and Senlang completed the fusion with the Eternal Tree, the connection between the two became clearer and clearer, and now they can finally attempt to perform a cross-universe summoning.

However, just in case, Mellen also set up an ascension platform in the valley to guide the forest wolves.

The function of this Ascension Platform is actually similar to the Gate of Immortality in the Starry Universe and the Mountain and Sea Realm, except that Mellen's methods are incomparable to those of the two Dao Lords who created the Starry Universe and the Mountain and Sea Realm.

However, Mellen was only used as a supporting player.

Once everything was ready, the dogs scattered around Mellen to provide him with strength, while Mellen closed his eyes and began to sense the distant aura through his soul connection.

A universe of stars, a higher-dimensional world.

The once dense forest of divine trees has disappeared, replaced by a colossal divine tree that reaches the heavens and the earth. It does not sit on the earth, but floats in mid-air, its roots taking root in the void, penetrating into various worlds, drawing nutrients from these worlds to grow continuously.

Of course, the Eternal Tree does not only take, but also gives back to the world while absorbing rules and nutrients, helping the world to grow better and thus achieving a win-win situation.

Otherwise, if the Eternal Tree were truly just a parasite, it would have already faced a backlash from the world.

In the center of the canopy of the Eternal Tree, a wolf cub sleeps soundly. With each breath of the wolf cub, the Eternal Tree expands and contracts accordingly.

Suddenly, as if sensing some kind of call, the forest wolf slowly awoke from its slumber. It blinked in confusion at first, then realized what had happened and let out an excited howl.

Suddenly, the towering Eternal Tree swayed slightly, its enormous size began to shrink layer by layer, and even the roots that had been inserted into those worlds were pulled back.

To be honest, the Eternal Tree's act of pulling back its roots cannot completely reclaim them. Just like when trees are transplanted, some roots will always break off in the soil, which is a considerable loss for the Eternal Tree.

Moreover, this action caused turmoil in tens of thousands of worlds, leaving many mythical powerhouses in a state of confusion and even attracting the attention of the rulers.

However, the Eternal Tree didn't care at all.

Before long, the Eternal Tree transformed into a small sapling and landed on the Forest Wolf's head, like a tiny ornament.

Having completed this step, the Forest Wolf released its power, echoing its master's call, and a mini version of the Ascension Gate opened. The Forest Wolf jumped in without hesitation.

A moment later, the Gate of Ascension closed. After a while, nearby high-dimensional beings came to investigate and were puzzled to find that the Eternal Tree had disappeared.

The wolf, of course, paid no attention to any of that; it was now eager to see its master.

After a mysterious journey, the forest wolf felt a bright light before its eyes and arrived in a vast new world. But before it could do anything, it felt an immeasurable heavenly might pressing down on it, as if it would be reduced to ashes in the next moment.

Fortunately, this feeling came and went quickly. A familiar power enveloped the Forest Wolf, and the suppressive rules of the Immortal Realm slowly dissipated.

The wolf shook its dizzy head, looked up, and saw its owner and a group of companions looking at it with smiles.

After a long while, the wolf finally let out a soft cry: "Woo!" (I'm back!)

The process of merging with the Eternal Tree was not smooth sailing for the Forest Wolf; he was even nearly swallowed up by the madness and chaos contained within the Eternal Tree several times.

It was the bond of the soul contract that brought the hearts of its master and companions closer to it, which allowed the Forest Wolf to persevere.

So even though they hadn't seen each other for decades, Senlang didn't feel any sense of unfamiliarity. Instead, he felt a sense of peace, as if he had come home.

That's right, home is where your owner and friends are.

Mellen pulled the wolf into his arms, nuzzled its head affectionately, and laughed, "Welcome back!"

At this point, Mellen and his dogs had all assembled.

After a long-awaited reunion, we naturally had to put everything else aside and enjoy ourselves for a few days.

Then, in this small, nameless valley, a happy time was left behind.

After 'charging', it's time to get down to business.

In the valley, the other dogs sat obediently to one side, listening to Melen and Nasus's discussion, although they heard most of it but didn't understand it.

Nasus, dressed in a white lab coat and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looking every bit the researcher, said in a deep voice, "Merlen, [Wolf Tamer] touches upon your very core, so we must be extremely cautious about any changes, especially when it comes to incorporating such a powerful system as cultivation."

Mellen nodded and said, "I understand, but this step is necessary. Otherwise, with the current limit of the [Wolf Tamer], I can only reach the level of the ninth-order Supreme of the Starry Universe at most. Perhaps because I have integrated some other rule systems, I am half a step stronger than ordinary Supremes, but that's all. Let alone achieving the transcendent Dao Venerable, I can't even reach the Dao Lord of the Oneness of All Things!"

When Murron was in the starry universe, he once comprehended the power of the supreme being. It was the power of combining multiple rules that could cooperate with each other to their limits to create a cyclical force.

In fact, Mellen had been working in this direction all along, or rather, the original pinnacle of the [Wolf Tamer] was pointing to this path.

However, the Dao Lord's path of unifying all things, encompassing his physical body, soul, spirit, will, cultivation, immortal techniques, and so on into a single point, and blossoming into the ultimate 'flower,' is completely above the Supreme Being!

Only after achieving this step can one be qualified to transcend and become a Dao Venerable.

The outer universe is vast and boundless, and the number of universes is as numerous as the sands of the Ganges. Mellen believes that there is no other path to transcendence than the Daoist Master, but without a doubt, this is the highest path he can reach now, and for a long time to come.

Chapter 710 The Plain of Ten Thousand Immortals, the Stone Tablet of Ten Thousand Immortals, and the Unyielding Dao Heart

Of course, while the Great Dao of the Immortal Realm is excellent, it doesn't mean that the inheritances of other universes are useless.
