Chapter 721 - 721 Lie Tian
721 Lie Tian
At this moment, Chu Xuan hesitated. Should he absorb the Origin Great Dao into his body?
Dao creation was not as simple as creating a Great Dao. It had to have complete laws and possess the power of creation to be considered a Dao creation.
Chu Xuan’s gaze toward the head changed.
This person was actually a Dao Creation realm expert, yet he too was crippled.
The world beyond the chaos was truly dangerous, so he had to tread carefully.
The head glanced at Chu Xuan and continued, “The Dao I created was destroyed in the great battle. Now, I’ve fallen to the Transcendent Dao realm.”
“Furthermore, my foundation has been damaged. Even if I recover, I will probably not be able to enter the Dao Creation realm again.”
Chu Xuan glanced at him.
The head was obviously saying that since he was already crippled, he was no longer a threat.
“What about the realm above the Dao Creation realm?” Chu Xuan asked.
He had to understand the realms above his to know exactly which level he was at, and what level he should be striving to reach.
He should be invincible if he had the power to crush the master of the chaos, right?
“Above the Dao Creation realm is the Dao Supreme realm.”
“It’s said that there’s no way to go further after reaching this realm, which is why it’s called the Dao Supreme realm,” the head explained.
Chu Xuan raised an eyebrow.
“What about the master of the chaos? Was he also a Dao Supreme realm expert?”
“The master of the chaos is a Dao Supreme Ruler,” the head said with a bitter smile.
“It’s said that this realm is also within the Dao Supreme realm, but in the truest sense, it represents the limits of the Dao Supreme realm.”
“Of course, there are also some who say that the Dao Supreme Ruler realm is actually a higher realm.”
“Before the master of the chaos made his move, this realm had always been a legend, and was nothing but conjecture.”
Chu Xuan understood.
However, were there any stronger beings above the Dao Supreme Ruler realm?
It was hard to say.
“Legend has it that Dao Supreme Rulers usually don’t stay in the Heavenly Sun World or the chaos, but instead explore the void region,” the head continued after a moment of hesitation.
“The void region is vast and endless. It’s filled with too many unknowns.”
The head sighed.
At that level of strength, it was likely that only exploring the void region could arouse their interest.
Chu Xuan nodded.
In any case, he was a long way away from that realm.
He had to first reach the peak of the Transcendent Dao realm, and then break through to the Dao Creation realm.
Exploring the void region was something that would only happen many years from now.
“How should I address you?” Chu Xuan looked at the head and asked.
“Lie Tian,” the head sighed.
“I was famous back then in the Heavenly Sun World.”
“Hmm… it seems that you’ve lived for a long time, so you’re an old monster. I’ll call you Old Lie.”
Chu Xuan chuckled.
“…”
The muscles on Lie Tian’s face twitched. Then again, he was only left with his head, so it did not matter what he was called.
“Let’s get straight to the point. Old Lie, what are you thinking about now? Just say it.”
Lie Tian sighed.
“Since you’ve left the chaos, you’re not going to wander around the void region. You’re definitely going to the Heavenly Sun World.”
“My goal is simple. I want to leave this place.”
Chu Xuan looked at Lie Tian. Even though he was severely injured, he still possessed an almost equal strength to his own.
“With your strength, it shouldn’t be a problem for you to leave, right?”
Chu Xuan was puzzled.
“You don’t understand. I’m too heavily injured. I can only maintain my current state. I can’t pass through this void region and reach the Heavenly Sun World.”
“Once I stop using my secret technique to maintain my current state, I’ll fall into a deep sleep. If I fall into a deep sleep here, I’ll eventually dissipate into nothingness,” Lie Tian said helplessly.
“Therefore, I need someone to bring me out of here.”
Chu Xuan stared at him for a long time.
“I’m from the chaos. The Heavenly Sun World and the chaos are mortal enemies, right? How can I trust you?”
“There’s no enmity between us? Besides, who knows how many years have passed since that great battle.”
Lie Tian sighed.
“Moreover, there are humans in both the chaos and the Heavenly Sun World,” he continued, “Since you’re a human as well, there’s no need to fret over such things.”
“I’m still a little worried,” Chu Xuan said cautiously.
Bringing Lie Tian with him would be useful. He would be able to learn more about the Heavenly Sun World and the former’s experiences regarding the Dao Creation realm.
Lie Tian himself was not a threat, but he was worried that he would call over stronger experts to deal with him.
“You can impose restrictions on me, and I won’t be allowed to harm you. How does that sound?” Lie Tian said after a long time.
Chu Xuan said in surprise, “You’re willing to be controlled?”
“When you’re in a similar state as me, constantly suffering for countless years, you wouldn’t care about such things.”
“As long as I can get out of this miserable state, everything is worth it,” Lie Tian said with a bitter smile.
“I’m afraid your heart has been twisted by the torture,” Chu Xuan said warily.
“…”
Lie Tian did not know what to say.
He could not just beg, could he?
“Actually, it’s fine to bring you along. After all, with an old monster by my side, I can avoid unnecessary detours,” Chu Xuan said as he raised his hand.
Traces of the power of the laws formed a rune.
“Imprint this on your divine soul and everything will be fine.”
Lie Tian took a look and nodded.
It was normal to not trust him.
After all, there was no basis or foundation for such trust to exist.
The rune merged into Lie Tian’s divine soul, after which Chu Xuan could tell that he had gained control over the latter’s divine soul.
Chu Xuan was not worried about whether Lie Tian would be able to break free from the rune’s control.
He still had this bit of confidence in his strength.
“You can halt your secret technique,” Chu Xuan said.
Lie Tian’s head began to shrink. He stopped channeling his secret technique and returned to the size of a normal person.
At this moment, Lie Tian looked like a middle-aged man with a beard and a resolute face.
“Okay, it’s done. I won’t be able to maintain this state for too long and will soon fall into a deep sleep.”
Lie Tian floated in front of Chu Xuan.
“This is the direction to the Heavenly Sun World.”
The direction in which Lie Tian was pointing toward was where Chu Xuan had spotted that special corner when he had experienced transcending the chaos as part of the system’s reward.
So that was where the Heavenly Sun World was.
“I don’t know how the Heavenly Sun World is doing now. Back then, there were experts guarding the place where the Heavenly Sun World was connected to the chaos. You have to be careful when you reach that juncture.”
“Still, after the great battle back then, the Heavenly Sun World suffered greatly, so I’m not sure if there will still be guards there. Perhaps there will be Transcendent Dao realm cultivators there, but it would be wise not to rule out the possibility of encountering Dao Creation realm experts.”
Lie Tian explained a few things to take note of to Chu Xuan, most of which were about the things that might happen when he entered the Heavenly Sun World, as well as what to do.”
“If you’re really only 10 million years old, you’ll only be considered a teenager within the Heavenly Dao World, ” Lie Tian added.
“What?”
Chu Xuan was startled.
“The chaos is very special. The time flow there is different compared to the Heavenly Sun World. The living beings that come out of the chaos will undergo some sort of correction.”
“Some Dao Supreme experts claim that this is a return to reality.”
“However, I don’t know the exact details behind this matter.”
“What I can tell you is that ten million years in the chaos is equivalent to ten years within the Heavenly Sun World.”
Chu Xuan was really surprised by this phenomenon.
Ten million years within the chaos was equivalent to ten years within the Heavenly Sun World? Would this not make him seem like a freak of nature?
“That’s why I say that the chaos is special. It’s a forbidden zone, but it’s also a place with great opportunities.”
Lie Tian took a deep breath and continued, “There are rumors that Dao Supreme realm experts will give birth to their descendants in the chaos. They will grow up in the chaos. Once they reach the Transcendent Dao realm, they will return to the Heavenly Sun World.”
“Of course, this is something that only Dao supreme realm experts can exploit.”
