Chapter 285: The Dao Canon is Not a World Wonder

Ye Tian stared at this Bronze Ancient Coffin without hesitation and pried it open directly.

At this moment.

He only then discovered that the interior space of this Bronze Ancient Coffin was very large; it actually contained a space, rather than being only that small like an ordinary coffin.

Whoosh!

Ye Tian flew directly into the interior of the Bronze Ancient Coffin and stood within a void.

"The space here is a full several dozen miles in radius!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

This should be some fragment that was integrated into this Bronze Ancient Coffin by that True God.

At this time.

Ye Tian's gaze was completely drawn by a corpse; this corpse was precisely the corpse of that True God.

This True God's corpse was that of a very aged True God, with the body connected to countless rays of light; these rays of light were transporting energy to him, but many rays were already dim and lusterless, presumably on the verge of shattering.

After all, the Rebirth Great Array had already been destroyed, and this True God's corpse was still absorbing energy; it was entirely this Bronze Ancient Coffin maintaining the energy supply for the True God's corpse, but this certainly could not be maintained for long.

Whoosh!

Ye Tian arrived before this True God's corpse; the other party radiated a terrifying aura, but this kind of aura could no longer threaten the current Ye Tian.

He was examining this True God's corpse; both hands were gripping a Small Shield and a Long Spear, the body was wearing a set of Gray Battle Armor, and the head wore a Golden Crown.

These four items were not ordinary weapons, but Divine Artifacts.

A mere corpse stored four Divine Artifacts; one could see just how wealthy this True God was.

By comparison, the current King of Xia was much more shabby.

Of course.

The King of Xia still had room for improvement, and it would naturally not be difficult to obtain Divine Artifacts in the future.

"These four Divine Artifacts are mine now!"

Ye Tian took away the four Divine Artifacts, then looked toward the distance.

"Six stalks of Divine Medicine!"

Near these six stalks of Divine Medicine was also a pile of powder, clearly the powder left after Divine Medicine had decayed.

"It seems that each stalk of Divine Medicine went through the cycle of ages, decayed, turned into seeds, and continued to grow; it is already quite good to have preserved six stalks of Divine Medicine!"

Ye Tian took away these six stalks of Divine Medicine.

Next, he investigated the surroundings but did not discover any other treasures.

A True God could not possibly have only four Divine Artifacts and a few stalks of Divine Medicine.

Then, there was only one possibility: this True God did not place all of their treasures here, but placed them in other locations; otherwise, if their treasures were all taken in one fell swoop, that would be too great a loss.

"These True Gods are not stupid either. If they put all their treasures here and they were taken by someone, even if their past-life memories were restored later, they would have no way to retrieve these treasures. If they store them separately, even if other places are found, as long as one treasure-hiding place still exists, then it is not too much of a loss!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

Outside the Ancient Fragment.

Ye Tian came out and saw the King of Xia.

"Ye Tian, how was the harvest?"

The King of Xia asked.

"Obtained four Divine Artifacts and six stalks of Divine Medicine!" Ye Tian did not hide it and said.

"Four Divine Artifacts, you are truly lucky. Rest assured, the Divine Artifacts you obtained are yours; keep them yourself. With your current cultivation, you can actually unleash a portion of the power of the Divine Artifacts, which is enough to improve your strength quite a bit," the King of Xia said.

Ye Tian nodded slightly.

Suddenly.

The King of Xia said: "Ye Tian, the Dao Canon will open again next month. You haven't contemplated the Dao Canon in these ten years; you can go and contemplate it. You have comprehended laws, so you can see the other side of the Dao Canon!"

"The other side of the Dao Canon?"

Ye Tian was puzzled and did not understand what the King of Xia meant.

The King of Xia said: "Ye Tian, do you perhaps think that the Dao Canon only has the function of allowing people to contemplate Divine Abilities and comprehend Dao Techniques? If it were only this, it wouldn't make a group of True Gods covet the Dao Canon. But even they cannot know the true value of the Dao Canon."

"True value?" Ye Tian was very curious.

The King of Xia introduced: "The Demigods on Earth who have comprehended laws all know this secret; only a few Ordinary Demigods who have not yet comprehended laws are unaware. Although you are not a Demigod, your strength has already reached that of an Invincible Demigod, and you have comprehended multiple laws; contemplating the Dao Canon once, you will discover the difference in the Dao Canon. So, it doesn't matter if I introduce it to you now."

"The Dao Canon is actually not a World Wonder!"

This sentence from the King of Xia shocked Ye Tian.

The Dao Canon is not a World Wonder???

Ye Tian asked: "How is this possible? Isn't it said that the Dao Canon is Earth's number one World Wonder?"

"No, it is not a World Wonder!" the King of Xia stated firmly: "It should be said that the Dao Canon transcends World Wonders; in fact, the Dao Canon is a Fragment of Dao!"

"A Fragment of Dao?"

Ye Tian still did not quite understand.

The King of Xia continued: "You have comprehended laws, and once laws reach Consummation, if you want to break through again, you must comprehend Dao! It is said that at the beginning of chaos, there was no Dao in the world, but as more people practiced, it caused the world to give birth to various Daos. For example, Sword Dao; as more people practiced Sword Technique, the world naturally gave birth to the Dao of Sword. The Fire Dao, Earth Dao, Wood Dao, and so on—all exist in the world. And laws are merely an external way of operation of Dao, which we have comprehended, and only then can we mobilize the power of laws. And the Dao Canon was formed by the transformation of a fragment of Taiji Dao, forming the Dao Canon."

"Taiji Dao!"

Ye Tian was lost in thought.

The King of Xia continued: "Taiji gives birth to two forms, two forms give birth to four images, four images give birth to eight trigrams. Therefore, Taiji Dao is also a very top-tier Dao and can contain all things, so contemplating the Dao Canon can be helpful for any Divine Ability or Dao Technique. And contemplating the Dao Canon is helpful for comprehending Taiji Dao. But we people haven't even fully comprehended laws, so naturally, we aren't qualified to comprehend Dao! But in the Earth Cave World, there exist True Gods who have comprehended Dao; these True Gods are the truly invincible ones."

"In addition, Dao is also divided into strong and weak. Like Taiji Dao, it is a relatively powerful Dao, but weak Daos do not mean there is no terrifying progress. After all, any Dao changes according to cultivation; if one is strong enough oneself, even a weak Dao can be cultivated into a powerful Dao."

"And besides being able to allow people to comprehend Taiji Dao, the true use of the Dao Canon is to assist in breakthroughs. If there were no help from the Dao Canon, my hope of successfully breaking through to True God would be very low. Furthermore, the Dao Canon also helps in breaking the bottleneck of laws, but mobilizing the true power of the Dao Canon consumes a great deal of God Stone and the origin of the Dao Canon; it cannot be used privately without cause."

"Lord King of Xia, I understand!"

Ye Tian was even more expectant of the Dao Canon at this moment.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

On this day.

Ye Tian arrived at the headquarters of the Global True God Council to comprehend the Dao Canon here.

At this time, he saw many Demigods.

In the past, whenever he saw these Demigods, he had been filled with great awe.

But at this moment, he felt that these Demigods were truly weak, posing no threat at all.

This was the change in mindset brought about by strength.
