Chapter 513: Chapter 486: Dao Domain

What a scoundrel!

Wang Wu muttered to himself, but outwardly asked,

“What is a Dao Domain?”

“The current status of my senior brother is that he has formed a Dao Domain. You can understand it, sir, as a great enlightenment, a nirvana rebirth, releasing shackles, breaking obsessions, and having thoughts that are clear and unobstructed. Thus, the Dao formed by faith can resonate with the Divine Soul on a higher level, allowing one’s beliefs to transform like a knife, a sword, wind, or rain, and even leaving one’s beliefs on objects, such as writing a poem or playing a piece of music. Sometimes, even just a glance or a word can make others willingly follow you.”

“This is a Dao Domain, and our master possesses such a Dao Domain. It is unrelated to strength, yet closely tied to it. Those who possess a Dao Domain will no longer encounter Heart Demons and will no longer be affected by Divine Calculation. Sometimes, even outstanding mortals can form a temporary Dao Domain… Heavens, this is what we Taiyi True Immortals have long dreamed of!”

Zhuang Bufei was extremely excited, and Feng Muhai felt the same way.

But Wang Wu seemed to understand a bit.

By destroying the other half of Lu Tong’s Divine Soul, he also broke his obsession and Heart Demon, making him forget the past.

And his Divine Soul was shattered, only to be reassembled by Wang Wu, which seemed like a significant loss but was actually akin to a nirvana rebirth.

Especially when Wang Wu perfectly and correctly imprinted Lu Tong’s beliefs together, making him thoroughly enlightened with clear thoughts, how could he not advance?

Truly, an unexpected result.

However, he could not replicate the same situation for Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhai—saving Lu Tong cost him quite a lot, but at least he had the Five Elements Profound Yellow Array to compensate. What can you give me?

“You two, don’t be like this. Lu Tong’s nirvana rebirth and great enlightenment also came after unimaginable trials. After being punished, his fragmented soul pieces were extremely tragic, and it took me three years to barely piece them together. You need not risk yourself like this.”

“Additionally, the other half of Lu Tong’s Creation Immortal Body has been destroyed. I couldn’t preserve it, and the danger of that situation makes me shiver even now.”

“In the end, the reason Lu Tong could be saved by me and form a Dao Domain is because his Path of Vastness was very solid. Can you, upon self-reflection, say you have such a Dao?”

Wang Wu briefly described the matter. After all, the other half of Lu Tong’s body was witnessed by the three of them, and there needed to be a reason, right?

“We understand. Sir, you truly did your best! You saved our senior brother’s fragmented soul, and that’s the best result. Sir, please accept our ceremonial bows!”

Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhai truly bowed thrice to Wang Wu.

Wang Wu accepted it calmly, “Leave the follow-up matters to you, but Lu Tong will need to change his appearance in the future to avoid unnecessary trouble. I need some time to rest; perhaps fate will bring us together again.”

With that, Wang Wu was ready to slip away when he heard Lu Tong’s voice gently behind him.

“Sir, please stop.”

Damn!

That quick?

Wang Wu turned around in shock, only to see Lu Tong already standing there, alive and well, looking no different from a real person, despite being a Divine Soul. His recovery was incredibly fast.

In fact, both Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhai were startled, instinctively wanting to flee.

“Junior brothers, don’t worry. My Dao Domain is complete now and won’t affect you. I have something I’d like to ask you two for help with; my physical body is completely destroyed, so I need to reconstruct it. Could you, junior brothers, please help me with the arrangements?”

“Of course!”

Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhai hurriedly left. Lu Tong, with a Dao Domain, exerted significant pressure on them. Even though they knew Lu Tong wouldn’t harm them, there was an innate fear.

Because they had their own Dao too, crafted through hard effort, and they dared not let Lu Tong influence them.

Wang Wu, on the other hand, having not yet formed his own Dao, felt nothing.

“Sir, I have an immodest request. Would you part with those five hundred Vermilion Bird Array Stones?” Lu Tong smiled, his voice calm but carrying a certain rhythm that made one want to comply.

But Wang Wu just felt slightly uncomfortable and immediately shook his head, “A gentleman does not take what others cherish. Lu Tong, know when enough is enough.”

“Haha! The sir is indeed extraordinary. I was joking. The sir’s Dao is truly the Path of Cowardice.” Lu Tong laughed.

“What do you mean?”

“Nothing much, I mean to say, sir, your Dao is already taking shape. Those words earlier were spoken using the power of the Dao Domain, yet you were not affected at all. This shows something.”

“Sir, I have lost my physical body this time, and my estate has been impounded. I truly have nothing else to offer as thanks. How about I make a promise that wherever and whenever in the future, I am willing to do three things for you.”

“And now, I am willing to share with the sir the experience and some warning advice from my nirvana rebirth forming the Dao Domain this time.”

“Oh? Please tell.”

Wang Wu’s heart stirred, and he vaguely guessed something.

Sure enough, the next second, Lu Tong smiled and said, “After I formed the Dao Domain, I suddenly understood the purpose behind some of my master’s earlier actions, including Elder Hui from the Gray Domain, and those high-ranking Elders, because through the Dao Domain, one can quickly cultivate the Level 27 Divine Calculation.”

“May I perform the Level 27 Divine Calculation on you, my lord?”

“Is that appropriate? Probably not, I carry the Blood Curse Celestial Punishment.”

Wang Wu was actually quite curious, he had long admired the Level 27 Divine Calculation, and who wouldn’t want to foresee the future, even if just for fun.

Unfortunately, due to the Blood Curse Celestial Punishment, it’s likely that Lu Tong wouldn’t be able to see much.

“The Blood Curse Celestial Punishment, indeed, poses a problem, but it can be divided into two situations. One is when you’re unaware, and using the Divine Calculation naturally yields no changes, but if you personally agree, it’s still possible to deduce and foresee some clues. My lord, you can give it a try.”

Since Lu Tong spoke this way, what reason did Wang Wu have to refuse? He could treat it like a fortune-telling.

“Alright! Let’s give it a try.”

Wang Wu nodded, and quickly decided in his mind that for the next five hundred years, he would just cultivate diligently, going nowhere and doing nothing.

Just for fun!

The next moment, Lu Tong extended his index finger, and instantly a point of golden light landed on Wang Wu’s forehead, then it rippled like water. Within just three seconds, everything returned to its original state, but Lu Tong’s Divine Soul suddenly dimmed significantly, appearing quite transparent, clearly having expended a large amount of Divine Thought.

“My lord, there’s no need to worry about me. This is normal wear, haha, so this is it, the Level 27 Divine Calculation, truly marvelous. My lord, I saw some of your trajectory over the next five hundred years, not much, but it might be useful.”

“In the next five hundred years, you seem to encounter a woman named Qingxue. Your relationship is very good, and she may become your Dao companion.”

“Throughout the next five hundred years, it seems you’ve been cultivating all along. Haha, my lord, isn’t this what you just thought? I’m so silly, I actually thought of deducing for someone who might have mastered the Path of Cowardice.”

“Well, it seems that in the next five hundred years, nothing major will happen in the Frost Domain, otherwise, as the Lord of the Frost Realm, you couldn’t possibly just keep cultivating.”

“So, my lord, it’s better you ask the questions, as I can’t see much more from you. Your Path of Cowardice, I truly can’t simply provide suggestions or opinions.”

“The Path of Cowardice?”

Wang Wu thought curiously, not expecting that the path he had been seeking was always by his side, like looking for a donkey while riding it.

“Tell me about your Path of Vast Righteous Qi, what impact will it have on your future?”

“A great impact. In the future, as long as I’m not too unlucky, at the very least I can cultivate to the Taiyi Ninth Tier, which is Half-step Daluo. Of course, this process will be long, maybe taking ten thousand years or more, but the good news is, I can reincarnate, the next time you see me, my lord, I might be a different person.”

“What do you mean? Reincarnation?”

“Pretty much, it’s the best method. I now possess the Vast Righteous Qi Dao Domain, not reincarnating would truly be a waste, but even so, within the next five hundred years, even if I successfully reincarnate, the memories of my past life won’t awaken all at once, but will gradually resurface. Yet, my future self will no longer be the me of today.”

“Of course, rest assured, my lord, my future self will still be endlessly loyal to the Frost Domain, loyal to my master. The three tasks you have, my lord, I will still remember. Do you have any other questions?”

“You said your master’s path is the Path of Sincerity, what path does Elder Hui follow?”

“The Path of Deceit. Not every chosen path is necessarily great, glorious, and correct. It’s not only the kind and just that deserve to be called a path. Deceitful, evil, cold, murderous, all can become a path.”

“Also, a path is not deliberately sought, but is closely related to consistent behavior, principles of action, like Elder Hui’s Path of Deceit, which doesn’t mean every action is deceitful, there might be evil deeds, but equally some good deeds, just like my master’s Path of Sincerity. Virtue and vice have never been the standard; the key is internal consistency.”

“Of course, some paths are very extreme, like my Path of Vast Righteous Qi, where the belief imprint is very strong, but the effect is also excellent. I was able to achieve Nirvana Rebirth and Great Enlightenment this time, and it is related to this.”

“Conversely, if it’s Elder Hui’s Path of Deceit, even with experiences identical to mine, it would definitely not have the same effect. His Path of Deceit would only show advantages in different areas. Am I making sense, my lord?”

Wang Wu nodded, indeed, he now had a very clear understanding of what a path is.

Elder Hui’s Path of Deceit naturally grants him a high sensitivity to anything that might harm his interests.

Lu Tong’s Path of Vast Righteous Qi allows his divine soul to have more powerful healing capabilities, so he can go for reincarnation boldly. Thus, after repairing his remnant soul, he can actually gain such tremendous benefits, nearly becoming undying and imperishable.

As for the Frost Monarch’s Path of Sincerity, it probably allows him to recruit some loyal subordinates and disciples. In contrast, the deceitful Elder Hui’s disciples either die or flee.

Looking back at the Frost Monarch’s disciples, they’re all above the qualifying line.

Moreover, being kind to others should also be a manifestation of the Path of Sincerity.

Wasn’t he himself conquered by the Frost Monarch’s sincerity?

It’s just uncertain what effects Wang Wu’s Path of Cowardice will bring once it forms a Dao Domain. Interestingly, in this regard, the Path of Cowardice is very similar to Elder Hui’s Path of Deceit, no wonder they clash.
