A blue light arrived, fulfilling the thousand-year pact.
Boom.
His voice startled the nearby great worlds.
However, before those worlds could react, the voice of the Yin Yang Dao Master echoed, "This is indeed true, but why are you alone?"
At that time, there were clearly only two of them.
The blue light respectfully replied, "Dead."
"A pity."
The Yin Yang Dao Master spoke.
He said "a pity" aloud, but his heart was filled with excitement.
Simultaneously, the Yin Yang Dao Master boomed, "The thousand-year pact is successful, and the experiment has succeeded. Since you have come, this Dao Master will not be stingy. Two unclaimed seventh-tier great worlds are bestowed upon you."
At these words, the blue light was overjoyed.
He was merely a fourth-tier rogue cultivator; even ordinary fourth-tier worlds were a luxury for him.
His thousand-year wait was worth it.
"Thank you, Dao Master." The blue light knelt in the void.
"Wait where you are, someone will bring them to you soon. Also, from today onwards, you may enter any eighth-tier great world in the South and choose freely. This is what you have earned by upholding the thousand-year agreement."
A thousand years to gain two unclaimed seventh-tier great worlds.
With his fourth-tier cultivation, he could easily reach the peak of the sixth tier.
The rest would require his own comprehension.
More importantly, he could join an eighth-tier great world.
He had achieved in just a thousand years what countless people dreamed of.
For a moment, the blue light was overwhelmed with excitement.
...
The matter of the blue light was a minor one.
At this moment, the Yin Yang Dao Master was eager to discuss the Dao.
"Fellow Daoist, your methods are impressive."
This time, it was the Yin Yang Dao Master who actively connected the power of yin and yang to contact Chen Fan.
"You flatter me, Dao Master,"
Chen Fan replied humbly, "Does this Dao align with your perception, Dao Master?"
Yin Yang Dao Master: "..."
What do you think?
If it wasn't acceptable, would I have contacted you proactively?
The Yin Yang Dao Master spoke softly, "Since Fellow Daoist has shown your Dao, this Dao Master will not be stingy either. Fellow Daoist... please watch."
Boom.
Yin and Yang opened again.
Unlike Chen Fan's reversal of yin and yang, the Yin Yang Dao Master's Dao was grander, filled with a majestic radiance.
As yin and yang flowed, within the endless chaos, yin and yang energies were drawn out, converging, and ultimately forming a world. Da Feng Novel Network
This world, from primal ignorance to enlightenment.
The Yin Yang Dao Master was creating the heavens.
Chen Fan was shocked and couldn't help but exclaim, "Your Yin Yang Dao is far grander than mine."
Creating the heavens.
Opening the heavens with yin and yang.
The Yin Yang Dao Master's voice echoed, "There is no inherent strength or weakness in a Dao. A small Dao of Illusory Transformation, with sufficient comprehension, can also dominate the Chaos."
This was the truth; there were no weak Daos, only weak individuals.
A moment later, the Yin Yang Dao Master dispersed his own Great Dao.
"Please."
The Yin Yang Dao Master became much more polite.
The two Yin Yang Dao Masters, separated by the void, began their discussion of Yin and Yang.
"Yin and Yang originate from Chaos and return to Chaos. In my view, the ultimate end of Yin and Yang is time..."
Chen Fan spoke eloquently.
His Yin and Yang carried a trace of the power of time.
The end of the Dao was time.
In this world, everything could decay, but only time was eternal, so... his goal was time.
The Yin Yang Dao Master responded, "The creation of heaven and earth, you are not wrong. But the power of Yin and Yang is more than this. Every thread and strand is Dao, and any Dao is accompanied by time. Yin and Yang..."
The two of them couldn't stop their discussion.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
Yet, they seemed tireless.
At this moment, both had long forgotten about time.
Discussing the Dao had entranced them.
...
A lot had happened in the Tenth Land this past month.
The South and West... powerful figures had attacked the East, initiating a struggle for its dominion.
In this situation, the name of the Dragon King rose.
The Dragon King, leading the Chaos powerhouses brought from the Thunder Domain, gradually ascended from weakness to supremacy.
Various factions clashed.
The Vast Sea Realm, the Five Elements Thunder Realm, the Demon Realm, the Five Realms Alliance, and the newly emerged Dragon King – these five forces had thrown the entire East into disarray. Battles erupted daily.
People died constantly.
In this short month alone, ten eighth-tier beings had fallen.
Chaos had already emerged in the East.
Countless neutral worlds, or smaller worlds, fled from the East.
This place was no longer habitable.
If they stayed any longer, they would inevitably be caught in the conflict.
Flee.
It was the best option.
One day...
Boom.
On the lands of the East, a battle erupted once more.
The combatants were a group of Chaos Beasts and a group of figures radiating demonic energy.
The Chaos Beasts and the Demon Realm were fighting.
"Buzz."
From afar, another group of powerhouses appeared.
The Five Realms Alliance arrived. They did not aid either side but attacked both.
This was a three-way melee.
A while later, the Vast Sea Realm and the Five Elements Thunder Realm also arrived.
The battle intensified.
Time slowly passed, and another year went by.
The East had completely transformed into a hellish abyss. The previously weaker Dragon King's side was suddenly bolstered by a group of Sword Dao powerhouses. With their convergence, they instantly became a top-tier force.
"Jian Yi."
Chi Lian and Jian Zhu met in the Chaos.
Both Chi Lian and Jian Zhu now possessed much stronger auras than when they first met.
"Why are you helping a group of Chaos Beasts?" Chi Lian's eyes blazed with anger.
Just yesterday, Jian Zhu had slain an eighth-tier Great Emperor from the Five Realms Alliance.
This was why Chi Lian had sought him out.
Jian Zhu smiled faintly, "The Chaos Beasts are pitiable. The Nine Heavens and Ten Lands are all occupied by humanity. What harm is there in giving the Chaos race a territory to survive?"
This was his genuine thought.
"Hmph."
Chi Lian the Great clearly did not agree. "They are merely beasts. They are enough as food. Why do they need territory?"
Jian Zhu shook his head. "A summer insect cannot speak of ice."
The brief conversation ended.
However, Chi Lian soon revealed the purpose of his visit and asked again, "News has come from the West saying you and the Dragon King originated from the Thunder Domain. Is this true?"
"Believe it if you will, or dismiss it if you don't," Jian Zhu did not give a definitive answer.
Did it matter?
Hadn't you already believed it?
Explaining was useless.
"Heh heh."
Chi Lian sneered, "So, you admit it?"
Jian Zhu shrugged.
"Since that's the case..."
A hint of greed appeared in Jian Zhu's eyes. "Today, you will not be leaving. If you can lead a group of ordinary sixth-tiers in and out of the Thunder Domain, you must possess a method for safe passage."
Boom.
As the words fell, powerful auras emerged.
At this point, there was no room for reason.
"Alas."
Jian Zhu sighed, "Must it come to this?"
Among the five major forces, the Dragon King's side and the Five Realms Alliance were the weakest at the beginning.
The two sides had cooperated many times, and the cooperation had been pleasant.
Now, it seemed the cooperation... had to end.
"It is you who are ungrateful."
Chi Lian reprimanded, "Jian Yi..."
"Call me Jian Zhu. You... are not worthy of the name Jian Zhu. Return the name Jian Zhu to me." Jian Zhu's voice grew deep.
"Therefore, today... we shall fight."
Boom.
From behind, one powerful figure after another emerged.
