Chapter 1005: Chapter 1005: Dao Domain
"However, I only had a brief encounter with Little Black; it seemed to be pursuing something at the time," Meng Bingxue said.
Pursuing something? Yang Xiaotian wondered.
"It said it was going to the Chaos Domain," Meng Bingxue continued. "Now, Little Black is likely in the Chaos Domain."
Gone to the Chaos Domain?
Yang Xiaotian was taken aback.
What was Black Master doing in the Chaos Domain?
"Little Black’s trip to the Chaos Domain is probably related to the Demon Clan Holy Ancestor," Meng Bingxue mused.
Demon Clan Holy Ancestor? Yang Xiaotian pondered.
The night passed without incident.
The next day, Yang Xiaotian bid farewell to his Master and senior brothers and set off for the Primordial Continent.
On his last visit, the Duobao Venerable had left behind the Origin Divine Pearl, so Yang Xiaotian could fully open the Origin Palace.
When the Heaven and Earth Dominator learned that Yang Xiaotian was going to the Primordial Continent to enter the Origin Palace for cultivation, he said, "Since there are no pressing matters, I will come with you."
Yang Xiaotian knew his Master was concerned for his safety and shook his head, "There’s no need, Master. Ms. Meng will accompany me. There are still many things that need your attention at the Heaven and Earth Divine Mansion."
The Heaven and Earth Dominator pondered for a moment, "Very well, if you need anything, you can always reach out to your Master or your senior brothers."
Yang Xiaotian felt warmth in his heart and nodded, "I understand, Master."
The Heaven and Earth Dominator thought for a while and then asked, "Do you know the origins of the Origin Daoist?"
Yang Xiaotian was startled. "The Origin Daoist’s origins?"
He knew only that the Origin Daoist and the Primordial Universe Taoist were brothers, but he truly did not know about the Origin Daoist’s background.
Master Ding had never mentioned it to him.
"The Origin Daoist and the Primordial Universe Taoist do not hail from the Four Domains." The Heaven and Earth Dominator gazed deeply into the sky, "In fact, they come from the Dao Domain."
"The Dao Domain!" Yang Xiaotian exclaimed in surprise.
Hadn’t Master Ding previously mentioned that the Primordial Universe Taoist and the Origin Daoist’s sect was in the Chaos Domain?
Could that be incorrect?
"Yes, the Dao Domain!" declared the Heaven and Earth Dominator. "The Dao Domain exists above the Four Domains."
The Dao Domain, above the Four Domains!
Yang Xiaotian was utterly taken aback to learn that the Origin Daoist and the Primordial Universe Taoist hailed from the Dao Domain.
"The Dao Domain is the most mysterious domain in the Martial Soul World," the Heaven and Earth Dominator said thoughtfully. "It is harder to find than our Four Domains, but its resources are far richer."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaotian’s spirits were buoyed. "Then, Master, how can one enter the Dao Domain?"
"I do not know," the Heaven and Earth Dominator shook his head.
Do not know?
Yang Xiaotian was taken aback.
"However, it is said that the method to enter the Dao Domain is hidden within the Origin Palace. If someone could refine and assimilate it, they would learn the method to enter the Dao Domain," the Heaven and Earth Dominator explained.
Learning that refining the Origin Palace could reveal the method to enter the Dao Domain, Yang Xiaotian reflected. Master Ding had said that once his Origin Divine Body broke through the Twenty-One Layers, he could refine the Origin Palace and move it.
In other words, once his Origin Divine Body was cultivated to the Twenty-One Layers, he would know how to enter the Dao Domain.
"Twenty-One Layers," Yang Xiaotian murmured to himself.
When his Origin Divine Body broke through the Twenty-One Layers, he would be at the Divine Monarch Realm.
Moments later, escorted by the Heaven and Earth Dominator, Zhao Ming, and others, Yang Xiaotian and Meng Bingxue left the Heaven and Earth Divine Mansion, heading for the Primordial Continent.
Godslayer King, Red-Haired Old Demon, and several others followed Yang Xiaotian.
On the way, Yang Xiaotian asked Master Ding about the Dao Domain, including questions about the powers within it, the skill level of the experts, the presence of Middle Grade and even High Grade Chaos Spirit Veins, and enquired about the sects of Primordial Universe Taoist and Origin Daoist.
"Your master doesn’t know much about Origin Daoist," Master Ding said. "Primordial Universe Taoist and Origin Daoist actually have two sects, one in the Chaos Domain, the other in the Dao Domain."
Yang Xiaotian had an epiphany.
Like him, he had more than one sect throughout his journey.
He had one in the Desolate Domain, and now another in the Divine Domain.
"Of course, the Dao Domain has Middle Grade Chaos Spirit Veins, even High Grade Chaos Spirit Veins," Master Ding said. "The Chaos Domain has Fifty-Million-Year Divine Medicines, although rare, they do exist."
"But Divine Medicines of Sixty Million Years and above, the Chaos Domain doesn’t have."
"Even if you search all Four Domains, you wouldn’t be able to find Divine Medicines over Sixty Million Years, but the Dao Domain does!"
Yang Xiaotian was overjoyed: "The Dao Domain has Divine Medicines of over Sixty Million Years!"
"That’s right, the Dao Domain has them!" Master Ding said. "Once you’ve cultivated to the Divine Monarch Realm, only Divine Medicines of Sixty Million Years and above will be of use to you, and after you break through Divine Monarch, if you want to rapidly advance, you can only cultivate in the Dao Domain."
"Originally, I wanted to discuss the Dao Domain with you after you broke through to Divine Monarch, but since you’re asking now, it doesn’t hurt to tell you in advance."
"However, even if you refine and assimilate the Origin Palace and learn how to enter the Dao Domain, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be able to enter."
Master Ding’s words puzzled Yang Xiaotian.
"To enter the Dao Domain, you need to pass through the Heavenly Path," Master Ding said. "The Heavenly Path is not so easy to traverse: it is fraught with dangers."
"Moreover, the power of the Heavenly Path Prohibitions is very unstable. If you encounter a surge in prohibitive power, even if you’ve broken through to the Divine Monarch Realm, let alone the Divine Emperor Realm, you would not be able to make it through the Heavenly Path."
"In a hundred years, the prohibitive power of the Heavenly Path will weaken, presenting the best chance to brave the Heavenly Path. If by that time you have broken through to the Divine Monarch Realm, you will have a fifty percent chance of crossing, and then entering the Dao Domain!"
A hundred years?
Break through to the Divine Monarch Realm!
Yang Xiaotian’s face instantly darkened.
He was currently at the Fifth Layer of Divine King, not even a Divine Emperor, and now he was expected to break through to Divine Monarch within a century!
Before, for the sake of winning first place in the battle of the Heavenly Dao Mountain, he had valiantly broken through from the Dual Layer of Divine Master to the Fifth Layer of Divine King in forty years. Now, within a hundred years, he was expected to make the leap from the Fifth Layer of Divine King to Divine Monarch Realm, which was simply—impossibly ten times more difficult than before!
"What if I miss this chance?" Yang Xiaotian asked Master Ding.
"If you miss this opportunity in a hundred years, you’ll have to wait ten thousand years," Master Ding said. "Every ten thousand years, the prohibitive power of the Heavenly Path weakens once, and each time, it only weakens for a month."
Hearing that he would have to wait ten thousand years shattered the last bit of luck in Yang Xiaotian’s heart.
Well then!
Now, he had no choice but to break through to Divine Monarch Realm within a hundred years!
From now on, he had to cultivate more fervently than ever.
Yang Xiaotian immediately entered the secret chamber of the flying ship and continued devouring Divine Fruit to cultivate.
With unexpected smoothness, they arrived at the Origin Divine Palace, where he used the Origin Divine Pearl to open the palace and went to the Origin Great Hall. There, he used Lower Grade Chaos Spirit Veins to activate the Time Flux Array and entered it to cultivate.
In the battle at Severing Heaven Peak, after killing many elders of Invincible Sect and Four Clans, Yang Xiaotian collected numerous Lower Grade Chaos Spirit Veins.
Together with his previous Chaos Spirit Veins, he now had seventeen Lower Grade Chaos Spirit Veins on him, enough to sustain the refining of the three Forty-Million-Year God Medicines and thirty Thirty-Million-Year God Medicines he had acquired from the Heavenly Dao Mountain.
Yang Xiaotian sat cross-legged inside the array, ingesting a Forty-Million-Year God Medicine, and began cultivating with his four major Cultivation Techniques.
Day after day.
As Yang Xiaotian continuously transformed the medicinal power of the Forty-Million-Year God Medicine into Godhood Power, his strength steadily improved, and soon, he broke through to the middle period of the Fifth Layer of Divine King.
Then, the late period of Fifth Layer Divine King...
After Yang Xiaotian had refined all three Forty-Million-Year Divine Medicines, his strength soared, breaking through to the Seventh Level of Divine King Realm.
