Chapter 723: Dao Seed!

"This 【Nether Flame】 is truly extraordinary..."

"Cough, cough..."

In the room.

The old Daoist Fa Ran's complexion had become somewhat pale.

"However, my 【Severing the Millennium】 is not weak either."

He chuckled, his laugh carrying a hint of pride.

That battle.

Although his cultivation was mostly ruined, falling directly to the mid-stage of Soul Transformation, the Liang Clan Xueying Laozu was even more miserable; his originally certain path to the Body Integration realm was forcefully cut off by the old Daoist Fa Ran, and wanting to enter the True Monarch realm again would be harder than ascending to heaven.

Using a late-stage Soul Transformation to trade for a True Monarch.

How could he not be proud?

This is the domineering nature of the Dao of Time.

It is not without reason that the old Daoist Fa Ran could rank so high on the Earth Register.

This was still because he hadn't been able to comprehend Immortal Qi, and his potential was too low; in terms of combat power, his ranking should have been even higher.

Li Rui was helpless: "Senior, is there any possibility of recovery?"

The old Daoist Fa Ran was very casual: "A human life is at most a thousand years; in another two hundred years, I will have to go into the ground with this cultivation, so it's better to fight for it, and I've long had the thought of scattering my Dao."

"I'll just cultivate for another lifetime."

Li Rui sighed.

He had guessed correctly.

The old Daoist Fa Ran had thoughts of reincarnation.

How many people in the world ascend to immortality in one lifetime?

Few.

Too few.

Even someone as stunning as Jiang Linxian went to reincarnate, didn't he?

This was the old Daoist Fa Ran's first lifetime; as long as his luck wasn't bad, who knows, he might be able to prove the True Monarch position in his next life.

Thinking about it, this old Daoist fighting so desperately must have made up his mind long ago.

A flash of cunning crossed the old Daoist Fa Ran's eyes.

He opened his palm slightly.

In the center of his palm, there was unexpectedly a trace of pitch-black.

Seeing that flickering flame, Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly.

It was actually a fragment of the Liang Clan Xueying Laozu's Dao Seed!

The old Daoist Fa Ran smiled and said: "This old man doesn't count as having lost; I used the Dao of Time to intercept a trace of his Dao Seed origin, and carrying this fortune into reincarnation, there's an eight or nine out of ten chance I can comprehend Immortal Qi; by then, won't I be able to enter that Body Integration realm?"

Li Rui couldn't help but gasp.

【Nether Flame】

This old Daoist Fa Ran was truly domineering.

Not only did he sever the future Dao path of a half-step True Monarch, but he even had the leisure to snatch a fragment of the Dao Seed origin.

"This is a good thing."

Dao Seed origin is something almost only True Monarchs possess.

Besides the primordial spirit, this is one of the very few things that can be carried into reincarnation.

Precisely because of this, after a True Monarch reincarnates, their potential is often far beyond other reincarnated guests.

The Dao Seed is of utmost importance.

Missing even a trace won't do.

In the path of cultivation, this concerns the Great Dao; even a biological son wouldn't be given it, so a True Monarch naturally wouldn't give it to others.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, only True Monarchs can carry Dao Seed origin into reincarnation.

The situation with the old Daoist Fa Ran is extremely rare.

It was forcefully snatched away.

A spark drifted from the 【Nether Flame】 and landed on Li Rui's palm.

"This thing is useless if you have too much of it; just take it."

The old Daoist Fa Ran grinned.

Li Rui felt the pure power of the Great Dao in his palm.

This gift was truly too heavy.

Dao Seed origin, even True Monarchs don't have enough; how could there be any such thing as it being useless?

And unlike the previous Dao Fruit fragments, this was forcefully snatched from a living half-step True Monarch, making its preciousness even higher.

The old Daoist Fa Ran was actually willing to gift it to him!

Li Rui bowed solemnly to the old Daoist Fa Ran and asked abruptly: "Does Senior have an illegitimate child?"

"..."

The old Daoist Fa Ran was almost choked to death by Li Rui's words, rolling his eyes: "This old man has never leaked his primordial yang in this life; where would an illegitimate child come from?"

"Then why is Senior so willing?"

Li Rui couldn't help but be curious.

Originally, he thought the old Daoist Fa Ran was arranging his affairs.

The old Daoist Fa Ran: "No one can be sure about things like reincarnation; I'm just thinking that if one day you become a Dao Lord, you might still remember this cause and effect and come to enlighten this old man."

This time it was Li Rui's turn to be choked.

Dao Lord...

The old Daoist Fa Ran truly thought highly of him. ===== CHAPTER 724 =====
