Chapter 734 - Prominent-grade Esoteric Art, Gaining Insights Into The Daoist Patterns Of Central Hea
The white gate opened majestically.
A surge of pristine aura diffused into the atmosphere, and the cultivators noticed a milky, puzzling world awaiting on the other side.
“Is this what the Central Heaven Daoist Ground looks like?”
“Every second counts. Hurry up and get in.”
Chu Kuangren and the Heavenly Imperials turned into rays of light and dashed into the Daoist Ground.
The group arrived at an empty and unpigmented world.
It seemed like the entire realm was hollowed out. However, on closer inspection, one could sense that the surroundings were flowing with countless mythical Daoist patterns.
The Daoist patterns seemed to contain the markings of everything within this world as if they were the source of the universe’s own existence.
“I can feel my insights into the Dao becoming clearer the moment I stepped into this space. In fact, it’s as clear as it’s ever been.”
“Me too…”
“Treasure the time and begin studying your own path of Dao.”
With that, the Heavenly Imperials began to sit with their knees folded.
Chu Kuangren did the same as well.
The Heavenly Imperials each found their spot to concentrate on the Dao.
Since Chu Kuangren possessed the strongest cognizance amongst them, he soon found the right state of mind.
As time flew by, two days had passed.
Daoist patterns began to orbit around Chu Kuangren, and its esotericism had already surpassed the limits of a Heavenly Imperial.
“Is this… the Prominent-stage Esoteric Art?!” The Daoist Celestials who were keeping watch on the Daoist Ground were shocked.
“He has already made history by possessing the Prominent-grade Emperor Core. I can’t believe he has also managed to derive a Prominent-grade Esoteric Art.”
One of the Daoist Celestials was in awe.
The rest shared similar sentiments. After all, they had been watching Chu Kuangren’s growth for a while now.
They just did not expect Chu Kuangren’s growth to outpace their expectations. In only a few years, Chu Kuangren has become a Heavenly Imperial who could slay a Daoist Celestial.
Although Bai Juexin had used a Daoist Celestial’s blood essence to elevate himself into the Daoist Celestial Realm, he was still a Daoist Celestial.
While Chu Kuangren may have used the Realm Origin to support himself in battle, it was an impressive feat nonetheless.
“He ascended into an Emperor through strength alone within the Slumbering Emperor Coffin. Tsk, that’s the same place that sealed the Chaos Daoist Celestial. I wonder if his Prominent-grade Emperor Core has anything to do with the Chaos Daoist Celestial.”
A Daoist Celestial said.
The rest of the Daoist Celestials immediately went silent.
“Alright, regardless of whether he’s related to the Chaos Daoist Celestial, let’s not talk about this any further. We don’t want to provoke a certain someone.”
Another Daoist Celestial said.
The Chaos Daoist Celestial seemed to be a taboo topic amongst them.
Thus, the topic was dropped completely.
“If it takes two days for him to derive a Prominent-grade Esoteric Art, who knows what surprise he’ll bring in another eight days?” said one of the Daoist Celestials with excitement.
“Let’s see.”
In the Central Heaven Daoist Ground.
Chu Kuangren felt that his insights into the Dao had reached its bottleneck after deriving the Prominent-grade Esoteric Technique.
Even with the help of the environment, the next milestone posed a crushing difficulty for him. As such, Chu Kuangren decided to awaken.
He lifted his hand and noticed strings of Daoist patterns circulating on his palm.
They were the manifestation of his Dao.
Now, his insights into the Dao were comparable to those of the Daoist Celestials. However, the only thing that set them apart from Chu Kuangren was their superior cultivations.
However, that was not a big issue. With the Universal Cauldron Physique, all Chu Kuangren needed was the resources before he would reach the Daoist Celestial Realm in no time.
Since the dawn of time, the Daoist Celestial Realm had always been deemed as an unattainable state by most in Firmament Star. Yet, it was now just another milestone to reach for Chu Kuangren.
“My insights are as good as the Daoist Celestials. Now, all I need is the resources necessary to enhance my cultivation.”
“There are still eight days left. I probably won’t achieve much if I continue my meditation. The Central Heaven Daoist Ground has been a let down so far.” Chu Kuangren shook his head in disappointment.
Then, he stared at the rest of the Heavenly Imperials.
They were racing against time to gain as many insights into their Dao as possible.
No one had the luxury of spare time like Chu Kuangren.
“Eight days left… Let’s see what else I can do around here.”
Chu Kuangren muttered.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the Daoist patterns that manifested in and out of existence in this realm.
Chu Kuangren’s interest was piqued. “Lil Ai, analyze the Daoist patterns of the Central Heaven Daoist Ground.”
“Yes, Master.”
The Omniscient Spirit began to churn out information. “Analyzing…”
Outside the realm.
The Daoist Celestials, who were keeping watch on the Central Heaven Daoist Ground, sensed something strange, and they looked uneasily at one another.
“Did you feel it?”
“What a strange sensation.”
“It’s almost like something is peeking into the Central Heaven Daoist Ground. But I can’t trace its root. I wonder what it is.”
The Daoist Celestials began to panic.
For many years, they stood at the pinnacle of Firmament Star’s cultivation, so very few things had ever gotten out of their hands.
Yet, they now sensed a peculiar change within the Central Heaven Daoist Ground, which disturbed them deeply.
“Let’s calm down. The Central Heaven Daoist Ground is a secret realm that dates countless eons back and cannot be spied on so easily. Perhaps this is just another strange manifestation of the realm.”
A Daoist Celestial said.
The rest nodded and attempted to loosen up.
In the Central Heaven Daoist Ground.
Chu Kuangren had an important realization after the Omniscient Spirit analyzed the Daoist patterns of this realm.
He realized that the Daoist patterns within the Central Heaven Daoist Ground bore a remarkable resemblance to his Heavenly Punishment Daoist Patterns. They both contained a strong presence of Heavenly Dao energy.
“If I study these Daoist patterns, it might just make my Heavenly Punishment Daoist Pattern much stronger,” Chu Kuangren murmured as his eyes glimmered with excitement.
The Heavenly Punishment Daoist Patterns were a key in defeating the gods.
Although the strongest gods were still sealed away, no one knew how long it would be before they broke free again.
As a result, Chu Kuangren was always eager to study his Heavenly Punishment Daoist Patterns further. How could he do nothing after coming across the Daoist patterns of the Central Heaven Daoist Ground?
With that, he began to study the realm’s Daoist pattern.
The Daoist patterns were both complex and intricate, which posed more challenges for Chu Kuangren to study compared to the Realm Origin.
Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren was not one to give up easily.
He compared his Heavenly Punishment Daoist Patterns with the Daoist patterns of the realm and analyzed them from there.
In two days, he made remarkable progress.
Soon, the ten days limit was almost up.
On this day, the Central Heaven Daoist Ground trembled, shaking all of the meditating Heavenly Imperials awake.
“What’s going on?!”
“Why is the Daoist Ground behaving so violently…”
The Daoist Celestials were shocked by the realm’s behavior as well.
They all tapped their visions into the Central Heaven Daoist Ground and noticed that the ancient Daoist patterns were beginning to change!
In fact, the Daoist patterns were flowing around Chu Kuangren. At the same time, lines of Daoist patterns also flowed out of Chu Kuangren’s body, which seethed with a majestic Heavenly Might and resonated with the Daoist patterns within the realm.
At this moment.
The Heavenly Dao of Firmament Star began to resonate with Chu Kuangren as well.
