Chapter 1583: The Seed of the Six Paths Dream

Centered on the border regions near Jin Yu Zhi, Void Refinement cultivators breaking through realms were visible everywhere, and within several days Void Refinement cultivators kept emerging one after another, all developing the need to go out and putting it into action.

It was like a point, a point of nuclear fission, spreading like a soul plague virus.

These Qi Sect Void Refinement cultivators who went out to new realms did not rest or linger much, continuing on to the next realm, and infecting more Void Refinement beings like a plague, making them likewise develop the idea of leaving their own domain, hurrying off in a bustle.

Void Refinement beings went out,

Went out!

Went out!

Went out!

The Void Refinement beings around Jin Yu Zhi went mad, continuously going out, triggering Void Refinement cultivator realm-breaking celestial phenomena in all directions, thrown into utter chaos, as if executing some crucial campaign, arousing the intense vigilance of the Great Yin Yang Sword Realm, who all contracted their defensive lines.

Cloud Dream Domain.

This was a realm covered in swamps and mists, five realms away from Jin Yu Zhi, where a bird demon named Golden Eagle True Lord soared through the sky, flying toward the realm wall with a heavily wounded body.

Golden Eagle True Lord was a subordinate demon sect of Qi Sect; his ancestors had once produced a Dao Merging Divine Lord, who served as the mount of a Heavenly Person.

Although the name "mount" did not sound pleasant, in terms of true status it was higher than most Void Refinement sects; in the past, casually devouring an entire human Golden Core or Nascent Soul level sect for a taste of flesh was something no one would bother about.

Now, thirteen years had already passed.

During these thirteen years, the many Void Refinement cultivators of Qi Sect had gone mad, as if possessed, flying off in all directions without any regard, stirring up a great swath of chaos.

Deep within Golden Eagle True Lord's soul, a youth in blue robes watched the land of Cloud Dream Domain with an indifferent gaze.

Before him, a Six Paths of Reincarnation dream world slowly unfolded — this was part of the Immortal Gate Six Paths Grand Void Illusion Realm's results, heavily referencing the soul fragment achievements of the Ancient God Ancestor.

If the Ancient God Ancestor had copyright and sued for infringement, he could surely make Jiang Ding withdraw the patent, pay compensation, and in serious cases go to prison.

Of course, the Ancient God Ancestor in fact did not.

The ability of this Six Paths of Reincarnation dream world was to plant a "Dream Seed" within the souls of Void Refinement beings and those below, letting the beings be subtly influenced, their memories copied, and then under various reasonable pretexts move in the direction the master of the Six Paths of Reincarnation dream world desired.

Moreover, the Six Paths seeds had extremely strong transmissible infectivity, able to actively infect Void Refinement beings within a hundred-thousand-kilometer radius, automatically planting the Six Paths Dream Seed virus into these beings.

This planting and infection was nearly infinite — as long as it was not interrupted, it could keep infecting and spreading forever.

A World Cluster Sovereign was precisely such a heaven-destroying, earth-shattering existence.

If there were no Heavenly Persons,

He could easily annihilate all the strong under heaven, taking whatever he wished.

"Some seeds have been blocked…"

Jiang Ding looked toward the Six Paths Dream World.

Dozens of scattered starry points were dispersed in all directions, spread across dozens of realms; more than half of the Six Paths seed Void Refinement carriers were confined in place, unable to move, continuing to spread Six Paths seeds; some seeds' souls flickered between light and dark — they were likely undergoing inspections like soul-searching.

This must be the Dao Merging Divine Lords making their move.

If it were Void Refinement beings, without wearing targeted magic treasures or talismans, they would be infected in an instant, utterly unable to block these Six Paths seed carriers.

"It's a pity the Six Paths Dream can only do this much — it cannot remotely plant into a Dao Merging cultivator's soul."

Jiang Ding muttered to himself.

Of course, he also did not dare do so now.

Because if he jumped to that now, his threat level would skyrocket, drawing the direct attention of Qi Sect's Heavenly Persons, who would abandon other battlefields and rush here at all costs.

Qi Sect's Dao Merging Divine Lords had already begun to move.

They dispersed in all directions, controlling the frantic scurrying of their subordinate Void Refinement cultivators, and had begun developing targeted spells to counter the Six Paths seeds, already able to suppress the Void Refinement cultivators' agitation — or so they believed.

These agitated Void Refinement cultivators being controlled greatly reduced Jiang Ding's cover, bringing him ever closer to the edge of exposure.

For instance, ahead of Golden Eagle True Lord.

Jiang Ding looked into the distance.

There, a burly man with a bird's head and human body wore an angry expression, staring coldly in this direction.

"Wretched child!"

"Wake up at once!"

The burly bird-headed man coldly shouted.

This shout, like a sudden thunder, tore through sky and earth, instantly jolting Golden Eagle True Lord awake; he gave a start, looked at the burly man, and revealed a panicked expression: "Father!"

This burly man was none other than his father, Mysterious Eagle Divine Lord, one of the mounts of a Heavenly Person.

Within the demon race, things were always cruel — even between father and son, much of the natural world's law of the strong devouring the weak was displayed; Golden Eagle True Lord held respect for his father, but more than that, fear.

"Where are you going?"

Mysterious Eagle Divine Lord's divine sense descended as he said coldly.

"Reporting to Father,"

"Your son received a report from a subordinate that a human with a beast spiritual root talent was born several domains away, so I wished to bring them back to the sect for training and dared not delay…"

Golden Eagle True Lord dared not conceal anything, mumbling.

A human with a beast spiritual root talent was naturally attuned to spirit beasts; in the eyes of many powerful demons, after layers of processing and ten thousand years of cultivation, there was a chance to refine them into a "Heavenly Beast Pill," which could enhance a cultivator or demon's soul foundation and add a sliver of possibility for advancing to Dao Merging — extremely important to demon Void Refinement cultivators.

This was the reason he was rushing so urgently, not caring about consecutively breaking through realms or even his heavy wounds.

Such demon acts of devouring humans to refine pills were naturally an extreme taboo, especially to the human race — if not brought into the open, no one cared; the human race itself had many similar deeds in dark corners.

But if brought into the open, it would be a great crime; even Mysterious Eagle Divine Lord probably could not protect himself.

Seeing his father in such a state, Golden Eagle True Lord thought his affair had been exposed and was extremely terrified.

"Oh."

Unexpectedly, Mysterious Eagle Divine Lord did not rebuke him at all, merely replying coldly once, then clasping his hands behind his back and flying back.

Golden Eagle True Lord hurriedly followed.

"Father…"

After flying for a while, somehow Golden Eagle True Lord hesitated briefly and asked: "Father, where are we going?"

This was utterly abrupt.

In the past, the Golden Eagle True Honored One had been deeply reverent toward this father of his; no matter what the latter did, he never dared to interject, simply carrying it out respectfully.

"Hehe!"

The Mysterious Eagle Divine Lord's body paused, he turned around, and said with a playful tone: "Naturally, we are returning to the Thunder Flame Domain to pay audience to the many Heavenly Being seniors. What, you don't wish to go?"

"If you don't wish to go, just say so to me, it's fine."

"Father, I wouldn't dare!"

The Golden Eagle True Honored One's scalp went numb, and he said in a trembling voice.

At this moment, all stray thoughts vanished completely from his heart. He respectfully followed at the Mysterious Eagle Divine Lord's side, and borrowing the fierce wind stirred up by his father's wings, his speed far surpassed that of a Void Refinement cultivator as he flew off into the distance.

The Golden Eagle True Honored One did not notice one small thing.

The father in his eyes—wise, mighty, and boundlessly powerful—upon hearing that he no longer spoke words of objection, his taut body relaxed just a tiny bit.
