Chapter 110: Chapter 110: The Hate-Drawing Stain Sect

Three Perfected Lords manifested their Forms in the East, West and North. The sheer scale of the spectacle left Lü Yang speechless for a long time.

“This is the Battle for the Dao.”

“However, this particular Battle for the Dao is relatively small—only Qi Refiners are involved. In a truly massive war, even Perfected Persons must personally take to the field.”

“And you’re lucky. That group of sword-wielding lunatics from the South didn’t come.”

Beside him, Perfected Chong Guang also let out a deep sigh before explaining, “This star is actually an Outer Realm drifting outside the world.”

“Every so often, an Outer Realm will draw near. When that happens, the Perfected Lords will act, capturing an Outer Realm that would otherwise just brush past us. They will then begin Refining it, initiating a Battle for the Dao. It is then our responsibility to enter it and seize this Outer Realm on behalf of our Perfected Lord.”

“Whoever wins, gets the Outer Realm.”

“And the victorious Perfected Lord can use the Outer Realm as a piece, nailing it into the territory of any of the losing sides to expand the influence of their own Fruit.”

“The Outer Realm will then transform into a Marvel.”

At this point, Perfected Chong Guang seemed to recall something else and said with a smile:

“For example, that Mass Grave in the South was won by Yin Shan in the past. It was originally an Outer Realm, and the natives inside were quite formidable.”

“Unfortunately, those people were obstinate. Our Perfected Lord couldn’t be bothered to waste time to convert them, so the Lord had them all buried alive, and then slammed the Outer Realm into the territory of the South, creating that Mass Grave. Today, it serves as a bridgehead in the standoff between our Stain Sect and the Sword Pavilion.”

Lü Yang was captivated by what he heard.

After Perfected Chong Guang had explained so much, how could he not understand? These so-called Outer Realms were clearly small worlds, similar to the Simulation Realm!

“I thought only a Master of Dao possessed the kind of great power needed to control a small world,” Lü Yang couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Master of Dao…”

Perfected Chong Guang shook his head. “You’re talking about the Simulation Realm, aren’t you? That’s different… The Simulation Realm is created by a Master of Dao, not captured.”

.

The difficulty gap between capturing an Outer Realm and creating one was perhaps the same as the gap between a Perfected Lord and a Master of Dao. Lü Yang took a deep breath, quickly clearing his mind of stray thoughts.

’No point in overthinking it. I need to focus on what matters.’

Lü Yang’s expression turned serious as he asked again, “Sir, does that mean this Outer Realm might also contain natives with extraordinary powers?”

Perfected Chong Guang nodded. “That’s another thing you’ll have to deal with. Some natives are not to be trifled with.

Especially when the Outer Realm is captured by a Perfected Lord and senses its own impending doom, it will instinctively support its native inhabitants. The Child of Destiny it cultivates in this way will not be easy to handle.”

“However, defeating them is one of the victory conditions.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Perfected Chong Guang tapped a finger in the air and produced a scroll. The scroll depicted a scene of surrounding mountains, with a clear stream tumbling down from a peak.

“This item is called the ’Abyssal Assembly Map.’ It is the Treasure of Fruit Position belonging to our Stain Sect’s World Purger Fei Xue for this event.”

“The Perfected Lords from the Dao Court in the East and the Pure Land in the West will also each send a Treasure of Fruit of their own into the Outer Realm to serve as the standard for judgment.”

“What you have to do is destroy their Treasures of Fruit Position.”

“Alternatively, you can defeat the Child of Destiny within the Outer Realm, seize its ’Heavenly Number,’ and integrate it into our Treasure of Fruit Position. Accomplishing either one counts as a win.”

After explaining, Perfected Chong Guang handed the scroll to Lü Yang.

“Normally, this item is only entrusted to the strongest participant in the Battle for the Dao. Take it. How you use it and how you achieve victory are all up to you.”

“Additionally, this item is itself a Divine Mysterious Artifact. When unfurled, it can manifest a landscape of mountains and lay lines to serve as a fortress against enemies.

Any non-Stain Sect disciple who falls into the map will have their Cultivation immediately weakened by thirty percent, while any Stain Sect disciple fighting within the map will find their Abilities’ power increased by seventy percent.”

Lü Yang took the “Abyssal Assembly Map” and carefully put it away.

A moment later, the star captured by the three Perfected Lords suddenly flared with brilliant light. Then, Lü Yang’s Disciple Token trembled slightly.

Lü Yang could clearly feel a summoning force settle upon it.

It seemed that with just a thought, this summoning force would transport him to another, unfamiliar land.

“The time has come. Go.”

Perfected Chong Guang spoke at the opportune moment. “After entering the Outer Realm, everyone will be scattered randomly. Remember, rendezvous with the other Direct Disciples first.”

“Yuan Tu understands,” Lü Yang immediately nodded.

In the next instant, a strong beam of summoning light erupted from the Disciple Token, enveloping his entire body before carrying him down toward the Star Realm.

…..

「Within the Star Realm.」

As a small Outer Realm that had existed for an unknown length of time, it was greeted on this day by an unprecedented, massive meteor shower.

The East, the Celestial Wu Dao Court.

The West, the Deeply Joyful Pure Land.

The North, the Demonic Stain Sect.

Disciples from the three sects entered the realm together. They should have been scattered randomly, as Perfected Chong Guang had said, but this time, changes had appeared.

In a mountain forest within the Outer Realm, a Monk in a kasaya with a compassionate face landed. He took out an incredibly complex Talisman and activated it. Soon, several streaks of light flashed, and three more figures with powerful Qi traces appeared beside the man.

“You monks certainly have a lot of tricks up your sleeves.”

One of them revealed a pleased expression. “This ’Talisman of Bounding’ is truly extraordinary. With this, we can gather ahead of schedule.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Another man, a powerfully built figure in Black Armor standing with his hand on his sword, spoke in a low voice, “There’s no time to lose. I need to assemble my troops immediately.”

Hearing this, the Monk placed his palms together. “Amitabha. Indeed, we cannot allow the Demon Dao to run rampant any longer.”

The man in Black Armor was named Wang Jinting, the “General of Expedition” appointed by the Dao Court. For this event, he had brought an entire Defender Army to participate in the Battle for the Dao.

To put it bluntly, he was the leader of the Celestial Wu Dao Court’s side.

The Monk’s name was Guanghai. He was the disciple of a newly ascended Arhat from the Deep Bliss Pure Land and a candidate for the position of Dharma Protector Vajra. He was likewise the leader for the Pure Land.

The Dao Court and the Pure Land had long been in collusion!

In the last Battle for the Dao, Perfected Yin Shan hadn’t even achieved Foundation Establishment, yet his Abilities were unstoppable. He gave the Stain Sect a decisive upper hand in the battle, even allowing them to push into the South.

This time, the Dao Court and the Pure Land had secretly colluded to initiate another Battle for the Dao, precisely to suppress the Demon Dao’s arrogance.

In the next instant, Wang Jinting took a scroll from his robes.

As the scroll unfurled, Wang Jinting formed a hand seal and pointed. A hazy mist immediately rose up, coalescing into a magnificent spectacle of mountains and rivers.

In addition, red dots flickered across the map.

“This item is called the ’Panorama Map.’ It can detect all Qi traces, large and small, within the Outer Realm. By consuming Qi, it can then transport people to designated locations.”

The Talisman of Bounding, the Panorama Map.

These were the Treasures of Fruit Position that the two Perfected Lords from the Dao Court and the Pure Land had specially created for this Battle for the Dao. Their effects were, without a doubt, highly targeted.

The former could quickly gather disciples who were supposed to be scattered randomly. The latter could instantly locate the dispersed disciples of the Stain Sect.

This would allow them to concentrate their forces, outnumbering their foes in combat. If used well, it could be enough to secure victory from the very beginning!
