1770 A Blank White Strand of Dao, The Eternal-tier Reward, The Divine Destiny Temple



Whoosh!

The King's Mark immediately turned into a ray of light and tried to flee.

However, Chu Kuangren snorted softly, and a mysterious Arch Gilded Intent flowed out from his body!

In that instant, the surrounding space and time froze!

It was a Space-time Arch Gilded Intent!

Under the effects of that Arch Gilded Intent, the King's Mark was trapped in mid-air and could not escape. Only its white light continued flickering in the air.

Upon seeing that, Chu Kuangren reached out and grabbed that white light.

Unexpectedly, that white light directly entered the palm of his hand, turning into the mark of a rune that later disappeared.

However, Chu Kuangren could sense an additional power inside his body!

"Lil Ai, I want a thorough analysis of this."

"Roger!" Lil Ai replied and started analyzing.

For the time being, Chu Kuangren left it be. His figure flashed the next instant and arrived at the Divine Sword Peak.

Following his arrival, the Spiritual Sword Tribe Prodigies looked at him with utmost respect. Chu Kuangren ignored them, shot a glance at the Sword God King, and said nothing.

The Sword God King was silent for a while before he said, "We handled the matter poorly, and that's what caused this misunderstanding. We're sorry, Heavenly Sword."

They initially thought that Chu Kuangren was impersonating the Heavenly Sword. That was why they allowed Gu Qingshan to take action without questioning him. Unexpectedly, Gu Qingshan ended up getting himself killed.

"There better not be a second time," Chu Kuangren said indifferently.

Actually, he was not too angry about it. After all, the Spiritual Sword Tribe was just a cover for him.

Besides, he could not ask for anything better than Gu Qingshan attacking him. It was only because of that he could get rid of one of the Nine Kings.

After dealing with Gu Qingshan, he did not return to the Central Heaven Temple immediately.

Instead, he returned to his cave residence in the Spiritual Sword Tribe. As he raised his hand, a white rune appeared in the center of his palm. It was the King's Mark.

After Lil Ai's analysis, Chu Kuangren managed to figure out what the King's Mark was. 

It was a… Dao!

That was right. It was a complete strand of Dao — a blank Dao!

The reason it was blank was that Dao could change its form to complement its user's Dao!

For instance, when Gu Qingshan had the King's Mark, that Dao was filled with immense sharpness!

Now that he was dead, the Dao returned to its blank state. 

"A blank Dao that can change its form according to the user and complement its user's Dao. No wonder the Nine Kings are so revered in this universe," Chu Kuangren mumbled.

However, he was not too interested in that strand of Dao.

He already had his own path of Dao, after all. If he were to refine the King's Mark, there was no telling what would happen then.

For Chu Kuangren, the King's Mark was nothing but another shackle.

The moment he refined it, it meant that he would be branded by this universe.

"Although I won't refine this, it shouldn't hurt to keep this with me for the time being."

He kept the item as it might be useful to him in the future.

Putting aside other aspects, he could use that strand of Dao to obtain a capable subordinate.

After keeping the King's Mark, he summoned the Fantasy Roulette.

"Congratulations, Host! You've obtained an Eternal-tier item, the Divine Destiny Temple!"

Boom!

Chu Kuangren's mind was blown!

'An Eternal-tier reward?!'

'Did I hear this wrong?!'

'It is an Eternal-tier reward!'

That was the first time Chu Kuangren had received an Eternal-tier reward since he transmigrated into the new body!

He even doubted the existence of such high-tier rewards. However, an Eternal-tier reward had found its way to him right now!

'Am… Am I dreaming?'

Despite Chu Kuangren having a rocksteady Daoist core, it shook a little.

He only had a handful of Transcendent-tier rewards so far. They were the Timespace Treasure, Tome of Physiques, Chaos Green Lotus, Lucky Halo, Omniscient Spirit, and Pocket Universe.

Any one of those rewards could send a whole universe into shock!

Each of them had provided tremendous benefits to him and was crucial to his cultivation journey, but now, he had obtained an Eternal-tier reward!

'What even is this thing?!'

Chu Kuangren took a deep breath and opened his inventory.

"Let's see what kind of item this Eternal-tier reward is."

Inside one of the grids in his inventory, the Eternal-tier reward called the Divine Destiny Temple was sitting there, brimming with bursts of golden brilliance. It was an extremely breathtaking and magnificent temple.

Chu Kuangren started to understand what the Divine Destiny Temple was the more he read its item description.

"I see."

"Alright. Retrieve the item," Chu Kuangren said calmly.

The next instant, Chu Kuangren disappeared into thin air.

The whole Central Heaven Universe trembled a little during that instant. A few great ones thought they sensed something, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces. 

"What's happening?"

"There was a change in the Great Dao earlier. However, I can't seem to trace the source of that change…"

The entire Central Heaven Universe's Great Dao trembled just now as if it was frightened of something.

Even some of the Primordial great ones felt uneasy about it.

It was just too terrifying.

Despite being Primordials, they could never transcend the restrictions of the universe's Great Dao. If something that could frighten the universe's Great Dao had appeared, what could it be?

Everyone had no idea.

Meanwhile, somewhere far away in an unknown dimension, a grand temple that had been forgotten over time suddenly radiated with dazzling light.

Waves of mysterious Daoist chimes came from within the temple, spreading in all directions across countless worlds and universes!

A few great ones who transcended the universe's Great Dao could sense something happening. Their gazes peered across countless universe barriers and dimensions and toward the direction of that divine temple. 

However, a magnificent surge of intent flowed out, and the prying gazes were dispelled.

Those great ones immediately became afraid, so they quickly retracted their gazes.

They only caught a vague glimpse of a corner of that divine golden temple. However, just the mere sight of that corner was enough to shock them greatly.

"The existence of that temple is certainly not something that could be observed from any universe!"

"This forbidden place is definitely beyond my comprehension."

Inside the Divine Destiny Temple, a figure suddenly appeared. It was Chu Kuangren.

"Is this the Divine Destiny Temple?"

Looking at the grand temple with countless ancient runes engraved on its structure, Chu Kuangren could not help but exclaim at its magnificence.

Every inch and every corner of that divine temple exuded an inexplicable sense of mystery.

"Welcome, Master."

At that moment, a crisp and pleasant voice echoed from within the hall.

Chu Kuangren was not surprised to hear that voice.

The second he arrived at the temple, his mind was filled with information about the place.

He knew the voice speaking to him now was the Divine Temple's Spirit. The Temple Spirit was a being that served and supported the Divine Destiny Temple Lord.

"Temple Spirit, how many incomplete Life Contracts does the temple have?"

"Master, there are still eighteen thousand Life Contracts that have not yet been completed," the Temple Spirit said.

The Life Contract was a certain kind of contract the temple had. 

The Divine Destiny Temple was a mysterious location that existed beyond countless universes. When those who received the temple's favors were dissatisfied with their destiny, they could come to the place and make a Life Contract with the Divine Destiny Temple Lord. They would usually exchange whatever they owned to receive the equivalent amount of favor from destiny.

However, there would always be greedy people who thought they could be the masters of their own destiny after receiving the Favor of Destiny from the temple. Those people were the ones who did not fulfill their Life Contracts.

That was the main reason the Divine Temple had so many incomplete Life Contracts.

Now that he had become the Divine Destiny Temple Lord, one of the things he must do was hand out punishment to the people who violated their Life Contracts and retrieve those Favors of Destiny from them.
