Chapter 1580: Re-exploring the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm

Setting aside the girl's astonishment, after leaving, Li Zhangsheng continued his journey around the world riding Aixi.

The Seeking Dao Jade Pendant was currently merging with the fragments obtained from the well; due to the larger size of the fragments, the fusion required a certain amount of time.

By the time the second lap was completed, three more fragments had been obtained in this circuit, including the one from the well; there was one large and two small ones, with the two small ones only the size of an infant's fist.

At this moment, the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant completed its fusion with the three fragments, its volume increasing slightly once more, and it emitted an even clearer, brighter radiance.

This time, the effect of the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant received a significant boost, and the light point representing the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant drew even closer to the pinnacle of a Supreme Langhuan Treasure.

The most important thing remained the top ten Great Daos; this time, another top ten Great Dao named the Great Time Technique reached perfection.

As the name suggests, the Great Time Technique represents the Great Dao of the time category, occupying a leading position even among the top ten Great Daos.

In this way, nine of the top ten Great Daos have already reached perfection, leaving only the final Great Destiny Technique.

As for the Great Daos outside the top ten, there were also over two thousand, and the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant was increasingly trending toward perfection.

Regarding the Great Time Technique, Li Zhangsheng had no intention of comprehending it for the time being; compared to the Great Five Elements Technique, the Great Time Technique was even harder to comprehend, and crucially, Li Zhangsheng did not want to divide his energy at the moment.

However, he could let Zhulong comprehend it; although it would inevitably be time-consuming, it was ultimately a path for growth.

Li Zhangsheng had already decided that as long as a Demon Pet reached the Emperor Rank, it could choose a Great Dao that matched its own attributes to comprehend.

Previously, with powerful enemies at his side, Li Zhangsheng had misgivings and dared not let his Demon Pets be distracted, but now that the internal enemies had all been resolved, this restriction could be lifted.

As for the extent to which the Demon Pets could comprehend it, that would depend on their own efforts and aptitude.

Li Zhangsheng gripped the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant and continued his third journey around the world, which was also the final one.

Until nightfall, when Li Zhangsheng returned to the starting point, he had only obtained two fragments on the third lap, and the largest was only the size of an adult's fist.

Contrary to Li Zhangsheng's expectations, he had originally thought these were the last two fragments, but only after fusing them did he discover that things were not as he had imagined.

After fusing these two fragments, not only was the Great Destiny Technique still incomplete, but there were nearly five hundred Great Daos that had not been filled in.

This meant that the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant was still not complete, yet Li Zhangsheng was very certain that he had finished exploring the Fairy World.

"Could it be in the deep sea, or perhaps it fell into the extremely deep underground due to crustal movement?"

Li Zhangsheng thought to himself, though he felt the probability was extremely slim, especially since the sensing range of the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant had further increased after fusing eight fragments.

As long as it was within a radius of several hundred miles, Li Zhangsheng could sense it, and he had even specifically tested it by burying a fragment ten thousand meters underground; even when he was at an altitude of over ten thousand meters, he could still sense it, so it surely couldn't be even deeper than that.

Even if there was only a glimmer of hope, Li Zhangsheng did not give up and continued to travel around the Fairy World.

This time, Li Zhangsheng moved almost flush against the ground or the seabed, and he actively narrowed his range significantly.

Unfortunately, it still ended in failure.

Li Zhangsheng did not give up; he even used the Earth Escape granted by the Great Five Elements Technique to dive deep underground, traversing the inside and outside of the Fairy World, even passing through the area near the crust, but he still did not find any extra fragments.

After returning to the surface, Li Zhangsheng's expression was not good; anyone who had spent three days without getting the result they wanted would naturally not have a good expression.

Li Zhangsheng thought of another possibility; he felt that the semi-planes attached to the Fairy World also existed as a possibility, though the probability was not just low.

Additionally, it was also possible that the person who possessed the fragments had left the Fairy World; if that were truly the case, the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant might never be able to reach perfection.

As for hiding the fragments in a Space Ring or sealing them, the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant could still sense them.

Li Zhangsheng appeared in Outer Space and began to shuttle continuously; one semi-plane after another passed by in a Fleeting Moment, and occasionally he would encounter a Secret Realm; given the size of these Secret Realms, he did not need to forcibly break into them, he only needed to travel around them once.

Unfortunately, Li Zhangsheng traveled through the Outer Space of the Fairy World several times, but still found nothing.

"Actually, there is one more possibility!"

Although he had checked the semi-planes and Secret Realms attached to the Fairy World, there was one place he had not inspected, and that was the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.

It was possible that the Seeking Dao Jade Pendant had been shattered by the Heavenly Dao; furthermore, the Heavenly Dao had a habit of collecting ownerless treasures, so such a possibility really existed.

Now, there were still several months until the next opening of the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, and Li Zhangsheng was naturally still within the scope of the 'conscription', but he had other ways to enter the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.

Li Zhangsheng possessed Authority second only to the Heavenly Dao, and the gap between him and the Heavenly Dao was not very large, so he naturally possessed some special privileges within the Fairy World.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng emptied his mind, and his consciousness seemed to appear in a mysterious and profound space.

This was the core of the Fairy World, and also the place where the Heavenly Dao was conceived.

Generally speaking, the Heavenly Dao basically stayed here and rarely left.

Without any surprises, Li Zhangsheng met the Heavenly Dao and conducted a conscious exchange with it.

After some negotiation, the Heavenly Dao finally agreed to open the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm for Li Zhangsheng, allowing him to designate and select three treasures as a reward for Li Zhangsheng's efforts toward the world's advancement.

Some time ago, Li Zhangsheng used the Nine Cauldrons to re-stabilize the Jiuzhou, which solidified the Fairy World, especially after the Nine Cauldrons became Merit Spirit Treasures, exerting even better effects.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng appeared at the Ends of the Earth.

Li Zhangsheng stared at the Ends of the Earth for a long while; he could feel that the Ends of the Earth also counted as a rare treasure, but it was of no use to him.

In his negotiations with the Heavenly Dao, Li Zhangsheng temporarily obtained the ability to shuttle at will within the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.

That is to say, the random teleportation within the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm no longer had any effect on him, and he could explore the entire Heavenly Dao Secret Realm completely.

Li Zhangsheng began to explore the outer Heavenly Dao Secret Realm and saw a dazzling array of treasures, but none of these treasures reached the level of a World Wonder.

He felt that the grade of the missing Seeking Dao Jade Fragment might not reach the level of a World Wonder, which was also the reason he was searching in the outer Secret Realm.

The outer Secret Realm was very large, possessing over a hundred Floating Islands, and it was not difficult for Li Zhangsheng to explore.

Unfortunately, there was no harvest in the outer Secret Realm, which also made Li Zhangsheng begin to gradually go deeper into the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.

"Eh!"

In the great hall where treasures were contested in the past, Li Zhangsheng's gaze fell upon a treasure pillar holding a giant dragon's head.
