Three Enclosures and Four Symbols
Chapter 311 Marks of the Gods, Preparation
On the Saint Ancestor Plain of the Abundant Continent, nine rushing rivers surrounded a gigantic city, protecting it in a pattern. This city was the most prosperous imperial capital of the Abundant Continent, “Saint Ancestor City.”
To the east of the city stood majestic, classical, and magnificent buildings stretching for hundreds of miles. The air was filled with the scholarly atmosphere and the aura of civilization, permeated by a spirit of righteousness that inspired awe.
This was the location of the Heavenly Academy of the Abundant Continent!
The current leader of the Heavenly Academy was a young man named Yang Ling, who had reached the Great Heavenly Realm in just a few years.
Some even rumored that he was a monster surpassing the previous leader, the Crown Prince. When he was at the Great Saint realm, he could already rival Heavenly Realm cultivators of the fifth or sixth grade. If he had been born in the same era as the Crown Prince, there would inevitably have been a fierce battle between dragons and tigers.
Of course, this was just the opinion of ordinary people. From Yang Ling's own perspective, cultivation was for longevity, and fighting was a last resort. In his heart, becoming an eternal god was the right path.
However, there was no doubt about his strength as the leader of the Heavenly Academy, and he was now unfathomable. However, he disliked fighting, and although he had obtained a supreme opportunity, he preferred to cultivate methods that increased lifespan.
"It's quite interesting that the Mark of the Gods fell into the hands of someone with this kind of personality." In a void, Jiang Xuan watched Yang Ling cultivating in seclusion, researching ways to increase his lifespan, and couldn't help but smile.
After arriving on the Abundant Continent, he tried to find the Mark of the Gods starting from the vicinity of Yandu City, and finally found it on Yang Ling, someone who should not have existed.
The Mark of the Gods was different from ordinary treasures. Even Jiang Xuan couldn't find its trace through any deduction techniques, and even the Civilization Disk couldn't deduce it.
However, Jiang Xuan had memories of his previous life, and his current cultivation was far beyond what the world imagined. In addition, some anomalies occurred when he used the Divine Elephant Prison Suppression Strength, so he naturally found Yang Ling.
This Yang Ling was very similar to the person with an uncertain fate in Jiang Xuan's memory. His fate couldn't be deduced. Jiang Xuan suspected that he was also a Void of Fate, but his origin was very weak. It was still unknown whether he could devour other creatures containing the aura of the Void of Fate and become a true Void of Fate.
Moreover, he didn't find a strong person named Yang Ling in the memories of those from the future, which meant that he hadn't reached the point where he could be recorded in ancient history.
Of course, it might also be due to his personality. After all, according to the current situation, this Yang Ling and Yang Qi were complete opposites.
The former would avoid fighting if possible, pursuing how to live longer, while the latter was decisive and ruthless, with great ambitions.
Jiang Xuan even suspected that after this guy shattered, he would find a place to hide and focus on researching how to live longer.
"But this kind of personality isn't bad."
Jiang Xuan smiled. It was indeed the right path for cultivators to be indifferent to fame and fortune, focusing on pursuing longevity rather than studying various techniques of killing and fighting.
Of course, that had to be in a suitable world. This world was obviously not suitable. The creatures of this world placed too much emphasis on benefits and opportunities, and didn't have Yang Ling's ability to cultivate quietly.
Even Jiang Xuan himself was almost the same.
"However, I've finally found the Mark of the Gods..."
Jiang Xuan thought. He had always felt a sense of disgust for the Mark of the Gods. This supreme treasure was indeed powerful, but for a path of cultivation, it shouldn't exist.
Even beings at the level of the High Priest and the Lord of Civilization would be enslaved. With the Mark of the Gods, it was as if the path to becoming a god was cut off. Whoever possessed the Mark of the Gods could enslave the gods, making the entire path of cultivation meaningless.
But now, Jiang Xuan could study how to crack the Mark of the Gods, but this would inevitably be an extremely difficult task. After all, the creator of the Mark of the Gods was himself a supreme powerhouse, and the rules and faith he condensed were even more astonishing. Cracking it would naturally be very difficult.
However, he wasn't in a hurry now. He had obtained many treasures and needed some time to comprehend them. Moreover, he wasn't in a hurry to become a god. After all, the situation was different now. Yang Qi didn't exist, and part of the Mark of the Gods was under his constant watch, so there was no need to be too hasty.
...
"The Civilization Disk, that's not bad. We might be able to draw on the many systems within to create 'protagonists'."
In the Chaos Space, Douluo Jiang Xuan was receiving memories, including research data on the various systems within the Civilization Disk.
"And the Divine Elephant Prison Suppression Strength. This technique is also very remarkable, but it's just a part of the supreme power. For us worlds that condense the origin of endless space, it's not very useful."
Doupo Jiang Xuan said. The Divine Elephant Prison Suppression Strength was a method of supreme power, but they could comprehend the essence of endless space and condense the Origin Body. As the infinite universes they created continued to evolve, their strength would also become stronger and stronger.
Moreover, the Origin Body was obviously more suitable for the infinite space they were in. Not to mention that the essence of the Divine Elephant Prison Suppression Strength was also very simple, nothing more than developing human body particles. At their realm, they could completely draw on this form and transform themselves into infinite universes. Each particle was a great universe, and it wouldn't be weaker than the Divine Elephant Prison Suppression Strength.
"The Divine Elephant Prison Suppression Strength is secondary. The Mark of the Gods is the key. If this kind of divine object can be created in other worlds, it's equivalent to blocking the path of cultivation and being able to enslave countless strong people."
Ghost House Jiang Xuan said. This Mark of the Gods was like the Investiture of the Gods in the Primordial World. Anyone who left a mark would be enslaved.
"Your thinking is a bit dangerous." Martial Extremes Jiang Xuan laughed. In fact, there were no longer any forces that could threaten them in these non-top-tier worlds.
Of course, it would also be difficult for them to continue to become stronger. At this level, no matter which world they were in, cultivation was measured in "billions" of years.
Moreover, at this realm, the role of energy and soul power became smaller and smaller. Just as a certain boss of the same origin as Saint King said, the realm was just a symbol. The more cultivation reached the ultimate, the more all tangible and intangible energy would be unable to measure the strength of a living being, let alone truly transform a living being.
After all, at a high realm, the energy within a living being could not be exhausted. The energy within the body was always in a state of equilibrium, and the energy was almost endless. Similarly, for high-level beings, no matter how much energy there was, it could no longer cause qualitative changes through quantitative changes like in low realms.
Of course, there must also be worlds like Saint King's. Unless one entered the final Non-Existence realm, it would be impossible to touch the essence of energy.
In fact, Jiang Xuan had tried something similar a long time ago. When Perfect Jiang Xuan opened up the world within his body, he had drawn on the ideas of the Five Primordial Essences.
Unfortunately, at that time, Jiang Xuan used the tangible to reverse the evolution of chaos, and then chaos evolved into the universe, rather than true creation from nothing.
"The most useful thing is still the Civilization Disk. These systems are worth studying." Desolate Jiang Xuan also said.
"Indeed... However, you should first think about the matter of Dao Integration. I don't want to lose someone next time." Saint King Jiang Xuan looked at Desolate Jiang Xuan and said.
The biggest difficulty in the cultivation of the Desolate World was the Dao Integration Tribulation. If you passed it, you would be eternally immortal. If you couldn't pass it, your true spirit would be annihilated.
"Don't worry." Desolate Jiang Xuan laughed.
He was walking the path of ultimate time and space in the Desolate World, which also involved the origin. It was the most difficult path.
Unlike other worlds, the Desolate World no longer valued energy from the World Realm. What was valued was the understanding of the Dao, which also led to him not being able to fully share the strength and soul of others before.
After all, they grew too fast, and their cultivation had already exceeded the limit of the Desolate Dao Lord. Once they shared their cultivation, he would have no time to deduce the Dao Fruit and would instantly enter the Dao Integration stage. Even with the insights of other Jiang Xuan, it would be a certain death.
After all, the duration of the Dao Integration stage was too short to allow him to deduce the complete Eternal Ultimate Time and Space Dao.
However, at their level, the Dao Fruit could not be deduced overnight. Even if he only focused on time and space, he would need to deduce it for endless years. Even with the help of time treasures, he had only succeeded in deducing it recently.
Moreover, this was only the Time and Space Dao Fruit. It should be known that most of the current Jiang Xuan's Dao Fruits were based on the All Heavens Dao Fruit of Panlong Jiang Xuan as a reference. They were all comprehending the essence of endless space to condense the All Heavens Dao Fruit.
But even those worlds like Douluo and Doupo that could already sense the essence had not yet fully deduced the All Heavens Dao Fruit.
After all, Panlong Jiang Xuan was different from them. Before the Celestial Venerable, he had the Reincarnation Tower to accelerate time, comprehending it for countless billions of years. After the Celestial Venerable, the main body and the incarnation cultivated at the same time, and the incarnation accelerated time by billions of times in the Reincarnation Tower, so he naturally comprehended it faster.
But they were different. Those worlds did not have time treasures that could bear them, so they could only deduce slowly.
Of course, with the memories and insights of Panlong Jiang Xuan, they deduced very quickly, but it would take a long time to completely construct the All Heavens Dao Fruit, just like the Saint King Jiang Xuan.
As for Desolate Jiang Xuan, he was originally cultivating the ultimate path of time and space, and the level of the Dao itself had already touched the essence, but this kind of Dao could not be comprehended, but only deduced by himself.
This was also what made Jiang Xuan extremely admire Ji Ning. Jiang Xuan himself had cheated, having the memories of other Jiang Xuan comprehending the essence of time and space. Although there were differences in each world, this made it easier for him to cultivate the ultimate path than others.
However, Ji Ning was different. He completely deduced the ultimate sword path without any reference, and even deduced the method of the true spirit being immortal. If it was a single Jiang Xuan, he admitted that he was inferior in terms of understanding.
"After Dao Integration, you can comprehend all the eternal ultimate Daos that maintain the operation of the Chaos Universe's origin. This may also be a way to condense the All Heavens Dao Fruit."
Desolate Jiang Xuan said. Moreover, the one condensed in this form was a pure Dao Fruit, composed of the most fundamental Dao, without any tangible things, and had many differences from the All Heavens Dao Fruit that Panlong Jiang Xuan condensed with all methods.
...
"Everything is ready, and it's time to prepare for Dao Integration."
In the Desolate World, inside the Dao Alliance, Jiang Xuan returned from the Chaos Space. This time, he went to the Chaos Space to understand the situation of other Jiang Xuans and to inform other Jiang Xuans that he was about to integrate with the Dao.
After all, there was no certainty in Dao Integration.
Of course, he now met the prerequisites for integrating with the Ultimate Dao, and next would be to integrate with the Eternal Dao. At that time, he would have no more worries and could have more time to cultivate.
"The Dao Heart is complete. These insights can also be turned into a method of Dao Heart." Jiang Xuan laughed. If he wanted to successfully integrate with the Ultimate Dao, too much was involved. Deducing the Eternal Ultimate Dao was only one of them. In addition, he must also meet the condition of a complete Dao Heart.
Previously, he used the time treasure to accelerate time, and with the help of other Jiang Xuans, he finally achieved true perfection. In his opinion, many insights could also be turned into a method, applicable to all living beings, which could be used to continuously improve their Dao Hearts, making them gradually complete.
"Tai Xuan, you're finally out of seclusion!"
A Dao Alliance Emperor Lord said in surprise. He felt the difference in Jiang Xuan. Even if his aura did not change much, the invisible aura made him feel uneasy.
The current Jiang Xuan held a position within the Dao Alliance, but he was an Ultimate Dao Lord, and also an Ultimate Dao Lord on the edge of Dao Integration. His combat power was infinitely close to the three great masters of the Endless Territory, so his status within the Dao Alliance was also very high. He was the third head of the Dao Alliance Immortal Palace in name, except for the two great Emperor Lords, Black Cloud and Jin Yu.
And the one in front of him was the Jin Yu Emperor Lord of the Dao Alliance Immortal Palace.
"Well, I've troubled Dao Friend Jin Yu to protect me this time." Jiang Xuan said with a light smile. Although there were many disputes within the Dao Alliance, the high-level executives did value the geniuses of cultivators.
Like Jiang Xuan, because he had comprehended the Ultimate Time and Space Dao, when he was in seclusion, at least one Emperor Lord's incarnation would sit in the place of seclusion, protecting him and maintaining time acceleration for him.
"Tai Xuan, you're too polite. This is what we should do." Emperor Lord Jin Yu said with a smile. The longer he spent with Jiang Xuan, the more he admired him. After all, Jiang Xuan had cultivated for too short a time, even adding the cultivation time in the time treasure, it was less than ten Chaos eras.
But now, he was already recognized as the strongest under the three great masters, and once he successfully integrated with the Dao, he was destined to surpass the three great masters, and might even be comparable to the legendary Supreme!
He was naturally happy to befriend such a person.
"By the way, Tai Xuan, what are your plans next?" Emperor Lord Jin Yu asked again. In the past, Jiang Xuan rarely came out of seclusion, but this time, it seemed a little different.
"I'm preparing to integrate with the Dao. I'll have to trouble you all to prepare a place for me to integrate with the Dao." Jiang Xuan said. He would not delay time. Once everything was ready, he would naturally integrate with the Dao and become an Eternal Ultimate Emperor Lord.
"Dao Integration?! Tai Xuan, you're preparing to integrate with the Dao?" Emperor Lord Jin Yu said in surprise. How many years had Jiang Xuan cultivated, and now he was preparing to integrate with the Dao?
"Well, it's almost time. I've reached the limit at the Dao Lord level. No amount of experience and insights can improve anything." Jiang Xuan said. Unlike what the outside world thought, his current strength was already stronger than the master. Even the original Ji Ning had never reached this level before he had integrated with the Dao. It could be said that at the Dao Lord level, he had indeed reached the point where he could not advance any further.
Emperor Lord Jin Yu was stunned, and then fell silent. Jiang Xuan's strength was indeed too strong. Even if they didn't know how strong Jiang Xuan was now, they should know that Jiang Xuan already had combat power close to the master before he went into seclusion, and this time he personally maintained time acceleration, cultivating for nearly five Chaos eras. He was afraid that he now had master-level combat power!
Such cultivation had reached an unprecedented height at the Dao Lord level. If such strength was not enough to integrate with the Dao, then that would be really strange.
