Chapter 1211

"Of course, the competition for the Nine-Turn Jin Dan is still limited to the Alchemy Dao."

"Twelve people each refine an elixir, and let the Fruit Position of the Nine-Turn Jin Dan choose one of the elixirs to descend upon."

"This elixir can then complete the final turn and become a true Nine-Turn Tai Shang Jin Dan."

Now, Qian Chen finally knew where the endless supply of Nine-Turn Golden Cores in the Tushita Palace came from!

A true Nine-Turn Jin Dan is like an immortal divine medicine; both are brand-new elixir formulas.

A complete breakthrough for the Jin Dan Great Dao, equivalent to achieving a Dao Lord in an alternative way on the Jin Dan Great Dao, is required to refine it.

But he did not expect that the Jin Dan Great Dao could also be pieced together, gathering the feedback of practitioners who have cultivated Golden Cores in the cosmic realms, to also give birth to a Great Dao corresponding to a Dao Lord.

"The superior-class Fruit Position born in the Sensory realm is the Hunyuan Fruit Position, also known as the Hunyuan Dao Fruit."

Lü Buwei smiled bitterly: "It can be considered feedback from the Hunyuan Dao Fruit!"

"Only one person from our Immortal Dao, one from the Heavenly Court, one from the Tai Shang Dao, one from the Primordial Dao, one from the Lingbao Dao, one from the Ancient Qi Refiner lineage, and one from the Fomen can participate in the competition for the Hunyuan Dao Fruit."

"In this way, the Inspiration Dao Fruit of that person from the Fomen probably doesn't get much nourishment."

"Since I founded the Immortal Dao, a total of thirty-seven Hunyuan Dao Fruits have been produced. Among them, my Creation Dao obtained twenty, twelve of which were refined into Immortal Qin Golden Men."

"The remaining seventeen."

"The Heavenly Court obtained four, the Demon Dao obtained one, the Dao Sect obtained eight, and four were obtained by the Fomen."

Qian Chen said solemnly: "Doesn't that mean that every 120,000 years, just based on the Hunyuan Great Dao, there is one more Dao Lord?"

Lü Buwei laughed: "How could it be the turn of Nascent Soul practitioners to become Dao Lords!"

"These Nascent Soul True Immortals come to compete for superior-class Fruit Positions, and when they return, they all offer them to the Dao Lords of their respective families."

"Either they are refined by the Dao Lords to supplement their Dao Fruits, or they are refined into spiritual treasures. Only those geniuses who have condensed their own unique Dao Seeds can be bestowed one or two. They rely on superior-class Fruit Positions to break through to Dao Lord!"

"Just like the superior-class Fruit Position of the Tai Shang Jin Dan, if used in the Boundary Sea, it can give birth to a world."

"Let the Nascent Soul True Immortal plant the Dao Seed, and gradually merge their body with the Heavenly Dao of that Great World, operating the various laws of the Great World. Only after the Great World goes from birth to destruction, and after millions or billions of years, can the Dao Seed condense into a Dao Fruit."

"The Hunyuan Dao Fruit can also help practitioners master a property of primordial qi."

"If taken in the heavenly realm, it will naturally form a Dao Palace. In the Dao Palace, it will evolve a kind of primordial qi for the ten thousand realms, and then gradually operate that primordial qi until the Dao Fruit condenses. Only then can one master that Dao Palace and achieve a Dao Lord."

"These superior-class Fruit Positions that can achieve Dao Lords are all the most precious resources of the cosmos."

"My six pillars of realms: the Sensory realm has the Hunyuan Dao Fruit; the Qi Refinement realm still has the Hunyuan Dao Fruit; the Penetrating the Law realm has the Primordial True Talisman; the Jin Dan realm has the Tai Shang Jin Dan; the Yin Spirit realm and Yang Spirit realm have Pure Yin True Water, Pure Yang Dao Fire, Yin-Yang Dao Rhyme, or Divine Dao Industry Positions and Super-Rank Life Patterns."

"This realm is relatively complex and borrows too many perfect Dao Fruits, so the superior-class Fruit Positions produced are also extremely unstable. Sometimes they might even be deliberately distorted by the Dao Fruits behind them..."

Qian Chen heard about so many superior-class Fruit Positions, endured and endured, before he couldn't help but say: "The superior-class Fruit Positions of the Yin Spirit and Yang Spirit have both Yin-Yang Dao Fruits and Divine Dao, and even involve fate."

"Very good... the Yin-Yang Fan did well!"

"And the superior-class Fruit Position produced by the Sensory realm, which should have been mastered by the True Illusion Dao Fruit, was annexed by the nearby Hunyuan Great Dao, is that right?"

For so many years, Qian Chen didn't even know what the superior-class Fruit Position of the True Illusion Dao Fruit was!

Lü Buwei hesitated slightly, but still said kindly: "It was only after you used the Dao Dust Bead, Fellow Daoist, that we knew that the True Illusion Dao Fruit had always been in the Dao Dust Bead, one of the Three Treasures of Tai Shang. Entrusting it to a spiritual treasure like this, the Dao Fruit was hidden and could not establish a Dao Palace in the heavenly realm, which is why there was no feedback from the Great Dao of the ten thousand realms."

"But just like all kinds of perfect innate Dao Fruits, the True Illusion Dao Fruit is also innately perfect and does not need to borrow that feedback to evolve the Great Dao."

"Forty-nine innate Great Daos, once proven, are proven forever; they are the foundation of the universe and will never fall from perfection."

"And there are no Dao struggles..."

"So, this superior-class Fruit Position, whether it exists or not..."

"The difference is huge!" Qian Chen said solemnly: "That is the Fruit Position of this Venerable, it is my money. They took my money, do they expect me to be grateful?"

"Other spiritual treasures, why can they be entrusted to the heavenly realm and open up Dao Palaces?"

Qian Chen had just spoken when he reacted.

"Oh! They have the Samsara Heaven!"

"Perfect spiritual treasures all have Samsara Heavens. Imperfect spiritual treasures will not produce superior-class Fruit Positions at all. They aren't even perfect themselves, so how dare they split the Great Dao to give birth to superior-class Fruit Positions? I fear they wouldn't even dare to produce middle-class Dao Seeds! Only lower-class Fruit Positions, which are themselves anchors carrying the Great Dao, are they happy to see!"

"That Ou Yezi is also an ancestor of the Immortal Dao and has feedback from the Great Dao."

"Every time he refines a sword weapon that can carry a Dao Fruit, it is one of his superior-class Fruit Positions. He can naturally split it out to help others refine a sword weapon entrusted with a Dao Fruit. But every time he splits it out, he has one less Dao Fruit spiritual treasure himself."

"Who would split it?"

Lü Buwei shook his head: "Ou Yezi actually did split it out. As the ancestor of the Sword Dao, he has several times helped Dao Lords of the Sword Dao refine their own natal sword weapons."

"This kind of Creation, when gathered together, is also two superior-class Fruit Positions!"

Qian Chen paused for a moment, only to hear Lü Buwei say: "Even this Dao Fruit of Heavenly Principles of mine, the superior-class Fruit Positions born through various realms, didn't they also refine the Twelve Golden Men, the Great Wall of the Boundary Sea, the Epang Palace, the Imperial Road, the Mother Embryo of Dharma Money, and the weights and measures for the Immortal Qin?"

Qian Chen then let out a long sigh of relief and said: "Lü Zi is right, it is I who was obsessed!"

"The various Dao Venerables and Dao Ancestors, by letting the Great Dao they master give birth to superior-class Fruit Positions, originally had the intention of helping many Dao Lords achieve the Dao."

"The great powers of the cosmos have a tacit understanding. Anyone who can condense their own unique Dao Seed, when they reach the pass of achieving a Dao Lord, will be given a chance to compete for a superior-class Fruit Position. This Hall of Heavenly Principles of mine has had many Nascent Soul True Immortals who are not true transmissions of the Three Teachings, but merely lean toward various Dao lineages, step in and have a chance to compete for a superior-class Fruit Position."

"There is no lack of people who have achieved Dao Lords."

"In these years, nearly ten Dao Lords have walked out of this Hall of Heavenly Principles of mine!"

"Conversely, if one fails to condense an extremely self-centered, unique Dao Seed, even if one refines a superior-class Fruit Position and barely achieves a Dao Fruit, so what? It is nothing more than a worm of the Great Dao that is suppressed by the innate Great Dao and perfect Dao Fruits, and can only rely on constantly refining superior-class Fruit Positions for progress in this life!"

"In the various Dao lineages, there were still such people in the early years. After the Immortal Dao was opened, these people were all sent to the Heavenly Court to be conferred as gods and merge with the Dao."

"There is no longer any chance!"

Qian Chen nodded in realization, only to hear Lü Buwei change the subject: "And since you have already mastered the True Illusion, Fellow Daoist, then the Fruit Position of the Sensory realm should have a spot for you. Let me think, the three spots of the Dao Sect..."

"Keep them, and kick out the Fomen, the Heavenly Court, and the Ancient Qi Refiners!"

Qian Chen said lightly.

Lü Buwei smiled: "How about this, I will give you one of the spots from the Fangxian Dao, Fellow Daoist, and keep the spot for the Ancient Qi Refiners?"

"After all, although there are not many Dao lineages that prove the Nascent Soul through the path of Qi Refinement, the source is complex and is one of the roots of the Immortal Dao, so it should still be respected."

Qian Chen said indifferently: "Since you are providing the spots, I will naturally listen to you."

"There is also the Jin Dan Great Dao. The six spots of the Tai Shang Dao originally had two fixed for the Louguan Dao."

"But in recent years, the Louguan Dao has declined in the Earth Immortal Realm, and its many great powers in the heavenly realm usually bestow these spots upon practitioners of the ten thousand realms. Hmm! Including two spots for the Jin Dan Great Dao, one for the Qi Refinement Great Dao, and three for the Yin Spirit and Yang Spirit!"

"Now that you are the Sect Master of the Louguan Dao, Fellow Daoist, this portion of the spots is naturally decided by you!"

Qian Chen thought for a moment: "The Louguan Dao does not belong solely to the Dao lineage of the Earth Immortal Realm. Such spots naturally depend on the situation. This Dao Master also does not want to cut off the path of seeking the Dao for the Nascent Souls of the Louguan Dao lineage in the ten thousand realms."

"I wonder when the next competition for a superior-class Fruit Position will be?"

Lü Buwei smiled: "It's a coincidence, it's exactly the Fruit Position of the Jin Dan Great Dao!"

"It is the Nine-Turn Elixir Assembly, where many Nascent Souls refine Golden Cores to carry the Fruit Position, in... eighty-some years in the Earth Immortal Realm!"

"Then there is the competition for the Fruit Position of the Yang Spirit Great Dao in 2,600 years. It is a Dharma battle to respond to a tribulation! Many Nascent Souls descend into a Great World, complete the tribulations within it, eliminate other Nascent Souls, and the remaining one carries the Fruit Position."

"Fellow Daoist can recommend two people and one person respectively to participate."

Qian Chen realized slightly. Superior-class Fruit Positions are extremely important for Nascent Soul True Immortals who are impacting the Dao Lord realm, but for him—it's just so-so!

What is truly important is the authority of the Great Dao usurped by the Hunyuan Dao Fruit.

"Now it seems that the Hunyuan Great Dao is the heavenly realm, and the heavenly realm is the Hunyuan Great Dao. If one wants to anchor Hunyuan, one must seek a Hunyuan Dao Fruit. The Twelve Golden Men are all refined from the Hunyuan Dao Fruit; if the Golden Men are united, perhaps the path to Hunyuan can be opened."

Qian Chen secretly noted this hatred.

I can't beat Hunyuan yet, but when I can, I will definitely settle the score!

Lü Buwei stood between the Hall of Heavenly Principles, facing Qian Chen with his hands behind his back, and said: "Since you have already understood the many principles of the Dao Fruit, Fellow Daoist, you can try with me the method of fighting in the Dao Lord realm."

With just a casual wave, countless principles intertwined within the Hall of Heavenly Principles.

On those six pillars of realms, fuzzy Dao Fruits stood out one by one, reflecting in Lü Buwei's pupils.

When the Dao marks intertwined by several Dao Fruit imprints finally settled, Lü Buwei pressed down with one palm, and countless divine chains of laws emerged, and traces of the Great Dao spread, framing Qian Chen.

For a moment, the laws and order around Qian Chen were all reshaped, as if the entire world was controlled by Lü Buwei.

"Establish Heavenly Principles!"

Lü Buwei shouted in a low voice. Qian Chen just took a light step forward, turning truth into illusion, and escaped the suppression of the Hall of Heavenly Principles.

Lü Buwei shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Every Dao Lord is the strongest within their own Dao Fruit."

"Reaching the pinnacle of the cosmic realms!"

"Therefore, the conquests of Dao Lords are often based on their own Dao Fruits; this is called standing in an invincible position. Trying every means to pull an opponent into one's own Dao Fruit can often lead to suppression with a flip of the hand. My Dao Fruit of Heavenly Principles is miscellaneous and not specialized; it seems to exhaust the Great Dao, but in reality, within my own Dao Fruit, I am not standing at the absolute height."

"Sweeping away the small fry and bullying the weak is naturally favorable, but if I encounter an existence that possesses its own Dao Fruit, I can often only slightly weaken the foundation of their Dao Fruit, and it is difficult to cover their strongest point."

"If I encounter someone like you who masters a perfect Dao Fruit, it is even more impossible!"

Just at this moment, a light flickering with five colors, sharp and carrying the intent of killing, struck without warning. It was heavy and sharp, the five colors of immortal light intertwined, one giving the feeling of a giant axe striking back at the heavens, one like a flying knife of extreme sharpness, and others like hooks, blades, and halberds!

It broke through the gloom and split the chaos. The five immortal lights intertwined, transforming into a great battle-axe like an axe, a blade, a hook, and a halberd, slashing toward Qian Chen.

"The Five Weapons of Heavenly Punishment?"

Qian Chen struck back with the Dao Dust Bead, colliding with the killing move fused by the Five Weapons of Heavenly Punishment.

The two collided, and the Dao Dust Bead also used its full strength to shatter this strike from Lü Buwei.

"Another way for Dao Lords to fight is to use supreme great divine powers created by predecessors. Those supreme great divine powers are all mixtures of many Dao Fruits by existences that transcend Dao Lords. Their principles have already transcended simple Dao Fruits and are manifestations of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth."

"For example, this Five Weapons of Heavenly Punishment of the Wang Mu of the West is a fusion of the Disaster Dao Fruit, the Tribulation Dao Fruit, the Destruction Dao Fruit, the Conquest Dao Fruit, the Annihilation Dao Fruit, the Greed Dao Fruit, and many other perfect and imperfect Dao Fruits."

"It transcends both the heavenly and human paths and was the supreme great divine power that the Wang Mu of the West prepared in the past to go against the heavens and conquer Hao Tian!"

"To truly cultivate this kind of supreme great divine power, one needs the permission of the Wang Mu of the West, gathering boundless greed and anger from the human path... to strike against the heavens with the human path, strike back against the five elements, and refine a certain Dao reversal of the Ancient Five Emperors Great Dao, only then can one truly slash out the Axe of Xing Tian!"

"Unfortunately! The Wang Mu of the West no longer allows this supreme great divine power to appear in the world."

"This move of mine is only simulated by maneuvering Creation, and it doesn't even have one-hundredth of its power..."

Qian Chen took back the Dao Dust Bead and sensed the strike he had made with all his strength. Although it shattered the Five Weapons of Heavenly Punishment, it could no longer threaten Lü Buwei, so he couldn't help but sigh: "One-hundredth of the power is already so terrifying. If Lü Zi were to use these Five Weapons of Heavenly Punishment, I fear you could split the Dao Fruits of ordinary Dao Lords, right?"

Lü Buwei smiled and did not answer.

Qian Chen became more cautious. The Five Weapons of Heavenly Punishment, or rather the Axe of Xing Tian, is the supreme great divine power of the Wang Mu of the West.

Lü Buwei opened up the path of Yuan Yuan Tiangang and Earthly Fiends, so he must also have a supreme great divine power that gathers the various Dao Fruits of the Yuan Yuan Tiangang and Earthly Fiends.

Just like Xu Fu's overturning of heaven and earth.

This great divine power is his true means of relying on conquering Dao Lords.

But Lü Buwei clearly had no intention of exposing this supreme great divine power. He just lifted the Dao Fruit of Heavenly Principles, within which countless principles intertwined, and a golden, round Dao Fruit that looked like a Jin Dan clearly manifested.

It smashed toward Qian Chen!

Clang!

Amidst the sound of metal clashing, the Jin Dan paused, dissipating the endless golden rays. The sharpness of the extreme condensation of the immortal golden nature was blocked by two fingers.

Qian Chen stretched out the two fingers of his right hand, twisting the Dao Dust Bead, blocking the phantom of the Jin Dan.

Drops of golden blood slid from the fingers that clamped the Jin Dan, dripping into the void.

Inside, countless Dao marks manifested, as if gestating and opening up a world!

Qian Chen's eyes drooped, erasing the spirituality in the golden blood and turning it into nothingness.

Only then did he see Lü Buwei nod and smile: "The third method of Dao Lord conquest is to borrow the status of other Dao Fruits, just like when you killed the Black Emperor of the Heavenly Court, you used Xiang Yu's Destruction Dao Fruit."

"Annihilation Dao Fruit, Destruction Dao Fruit, Disaster Dao Fruit..."

"There are always some Dao Fruits in the world that stand at the highest point in certain directions of destruction. These Dao Fruits can directly target the Dao Fruits of Dao Lords and pull them down!"

"Just like in the past, even though my Immortal Qin declined, there were still several Dao Lords suppressing the foundation."

"But once Xiang Yu proved the Destruction Dao Fruit, he beheaded several Immortal Qin Dao Lords in succession!"

"My Dao Fruit of Heavenly Principles is not good at other things, but it can borrow the Fruit Positions left by innately perfect Dao Fruits such as the Jin Dan Great Dao, the Talisman Great Dao, the Hunyuan Great Dao, and the Yin-Yang Great Dao! Manifesting the corresponding Dao Fruit and borrowing the power of one strike."

"Just now, I used a middle-class Fruit Position of the Jin Dan Great Dao to borrow the manifestation of its Jin Dan Dao Fruit!"

Qian Chen looked at the gradually disappearing Jin Dan and couldn't help but sigh: "A Fruit Position equivalent to a Dao Seed, striking one blow. Lü Zi, if the Nascent Soul True Immortals of the cosmic realms knew of your actions, they would definitely scold you for wasting heavenly treasures!"

Lü Buwei smiled: "If I couldn't bear to part with this bit of Dao rhyme, how could my Dao Fruit of Heavenly Principles rank among the Great Fangshi?"

"Let alone a middle-class Fruit Position, even a superior-class Fruit Position should be used when it's time to use it. Borrowing an innate Dao Fruit is equivalent to a full-strength strike from a perfect Dao Lord. If the timing is grasped well, it is not difficult to strike down the Dao Fruits of one or two Dao Lords."

Qian Chen smiled: "If Lü Zi wants to use a superior-class Fruit Position, then I won't compare, I'll just turn around and run..."

Lü Buwei sighed: "Facing me, Fellow Daoist can escape, but can you escape facing the Long Huang?"

"I originally had the intention of using a superior-class Fruit Position to demonstrate to you, Fellow Daoist, the true power of the Long Huang's strike..."

Qian Chen complained: "Don't... If the Long Huang is truly fully resurrected and can strike, then we won't even mention blocking the Long Huang! Leave it to the Dao Venerables of the cosmos! If the sky falls, the tall ones should hold it up. The Long Huang's resurrection is not a pot for me alone to carry!"

Lü Buwei laughed loudly: "But Fellow Daoist should at least block two moves!"

"Having taken so many benefits from the Immortal Qin, if you don't block two moves, are you still human?"

Qian Chen said decisively: "It's a deal, two moves it is!"
