Chapter 528
528 Tianyan Formation Disk, The Collapse of Time
Jiang Ming had now understood that the so-called Great Dao Alliance wasn’t the rival of the Heavenly Demonic Beasts at all. Therefore, the members of the alliance could only remain hiding while furtively accumulating power.
What Gu Cheng said about the need of sacrificing numerous Sea of Chaos to train up a military team was thereby nonsense.
Not long later, all the members of the Great Dao Alliance had rushed over. There weren’t many of them, there were merely 240 of them.
There was a formation disk in the Palace of Fortune. It was called the Tianyan Formation Disk, which was left behind in ancient times. Once the members left their imprints on the formation disk, they could return easily by spending Hongmeng Coins.
Returning would use up lots of Hongmeng Coins, but it was the most costly to descend to defined places. In fact, it was 100 times more costly to places than returning. Hence, they would use it only when the alliance sensed the appearance of Dao Breaking Expert with the aim of inviting the new Dao Breaking Expert to join them. Other than this purpose, no one would use it.
The more Jiang Ming learned about the alliance, the more he respected the alliance. Although it was a lenient organization and needed resources to operate, it didn’t impose much on its members.
However, whenever members traded among themselves, they would have to pay a certain amount of Hongmeng Coins to be used as the alliance’s operating cost. All the members did it willingly because they knew that they would become stronger only with the support of the organization.
None of them would escape even when they had to face the Heavenly Demonic Beasts. It was because they clearly understood that if the Dao Great Alliance was to be done for, they wouldn’t survive long as well.
Therefore, the Great Dao Alliance was an organization which appeared to be lenient, but the members were all united.
Nevertheless, Jiang Ming felt rather a headache because this alliance was not of a great help to him. It was truly useless to him because he didn’t need trading nor did he need any techniques, special abilities and experience. Moreover, he didn’t really need support from others during the war.
‘Fortunately, there’s a good benefit that I can gain from this alliance. It’s the corpses of those Heavenly Demonic Beasts!’ Jiang Ming, however, didn’t voice out his thoughts because he didn’t think it was the right time for him to do so yet.
This gathering lasted for three months. After the meeting, some left while some cultivated in retreat. There were also some members who had left to hunt down weaker Heavenly Demonic Beasts.
Jiang Ming left after he left an imprint on the Tianyan Formation Disk. After he had left, Jiang Ming turned to look at the Palace of Fortune from a distance. It was an extremely enormous palace akin to the size of a great chiliocosm. While revolving in the void, it extracted the endless power of the void.
With a swipe in the air to cut the space, Jiang Ming leaped into the land of nothingness.
Such was the way to enter the land of nothingness. It seemed both easy and difficult because one would have to achieve the standard of One Dao Force.
Jiang Ming didn’t rush back. Instead, he carefully observed and felt the condition of the land of nothingness.
It wasn’t anything at all in the land of nothingness. There wasn’t any material nor laws. In fact, materials such as Chaos Supreme Treasures could be present but they would be consumed by an inexplicable power along with time, leaving not a trace behind.
‘This is the power of nothingness, the power of void and the power of emptiness!’ Jiang Ming recalled the words of Gu Cheng and felt that it was reasonable.
Following that, Jiang Ming swiped, cracking the void and streams of violet light flew out from within. As soon as he grabbed it, he oscillated, and it was refined into Hongmeng coins.
In just a blink of an eye, there were already a couple of Hongmeng Coins in Jiang Ming’s hands.
‘One Hongmeng coin is enough to build the foundation of a Saint!’ Jiang Ming couldn’t help but smile. ‘From now onwards, I can bless whoever I want to become a Saint.’
As Jiang Ming was thinking, he evoked the World Projection. Laws run through it while oscillating and twisting, forming an absolute tide of power. In an instant, void cracks appeared in a radius of ten thousand miles, and a large number of violet lights descended from it.
As Jiang Ming kept mobilizing his consciousness, he continuously was refining those violet lights. It could be seen that Hongmeng Coins were falling down like heavy rain. If Gu Cheng was to see such a scene, he definitely would be surprised.
‘They seem a lot, but not useful for me anyway!’ Jiang Ming shook his head and decided to stop refining the Hongmeng Coins. He was good with only having some of them because he didn’t feel worthy to refine more. He thought he might as well slaughter those Heavenly Demonic Beasts.
Jiang Ming stopped after he had spent a day and accumulated a small mountain of Hongmeng Coins.
Following that, Jiang Ming called out his Human Path Record to return to his Sea of Chaos. But he stopped because of an idea that popped out in his mind.
The World Projection reappeared, this time it neither focused on anything nor shrank. Jiang Ming could exert greater power with a smaller projection range. However, Jiang Ming blurred the projection so that the projection range swiftly expanded out.
It expanded out to a light year, 100 light years, 10,000 light years and 100 million light years before it finally stopped expanding.
‘It’s difficult to teleport in the land of nothingness, let alone to make a big shift. I wonder if this method works!’ As Jiang Ming thought, he had his spatial law run through the projection and disappeared with a flutter. Upon reappearance, he was a light year away.
‘With the projection, I can actually teleport myself. It’s just that the resistance is too terrifying.’ Jiang Ming was surprised.
The distance of a light year was too short. When Jiang Ming shrank the projection range of the World Projection, the power gathered was gradually strengthened.
For a couple of times Jiang Ming had experimented, he finally discovered the furthest distance he could teleport. It was 1,000 light years.
‘It’s still too short. It’s not so useful since the land of nothingness is too enormous!’ Jiang Ming shook his head rather helplessly.
If Gu Cheng was to learn about Jiang Ming’s ability of teleporting in the land of nothingness up to a distance of 1,000 light years, Gu Cheng would definitely be stunned. It was in fact, an impossible miracle. Yet, Jiang Ming was dissatisfied.
‘I’m still too weak indeed. I think when I become stronger after I finish digesting those Heavenly Demonic Beasts and 49 hearts of Chaos, I should be able to teleport a trillion light years away at a time. And this distance would be just nice!’ As Jiang Ming thought, he called out the Human Path Record and returned to the Chuyang Peak.
‘I wonder which level is this Human Path Record?’ Even now, Jiang Ming still couldn’t manage to speculate the Record’s level. It was obviously beyond the range of the Dao Breaking Realm.
“Senior brother!” As soon as Linglong saw Jiang Ming’s return, she lunged herself into Jiang Ming’s embrace and replaced her worries with happiness.
Jiang Ming put away his avatar and patted on Linglong’s back. “No worries.”
“Senior brother, can you tell me now what’s actually happening?” Linglong raised her face towards Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming gave her a kiss and told Linglong everything about the Heavenly Demonic Beasts, land of nothingness, the Great Dao Alliance and the likes without holding back.
“What…” Linglong was stunned. “The Great Dao Alliance? Even the Dao Patriarchs are not qualified to be the member? Yet the alliance is still being pinned down by the Heavenly Demonic Beasts? Senior brother, that’s why you have been worried all these while. It turns out that there is such a horrifying power of evil out there.”
“That’s right!” Jiang Ming also exclaimed. “I thought a Dao Patriarch is the strongest. But it seems that a Dao Patriarch can dominate within the Sea of Chaos only.”
Jiang Ming couldn’t help but smirk as he said so.
“I wonder what would those Dao Patriarchs think when they learn about it?” Linglong chuckled. Following that, she unbuttoned Jiang Ming’s clothes. “Senior brother, in this case, I’m even weaker now. Let’s have an intimate communication so that you can help me to sanctify my Dao.”
Jiang Ming, “…”
The duo began to do what Linglong had just requested. However, Jiang Ming realized one thing that made him feel extremely bad.
The time reversed space could no longer carry his power and collapsed. The greater the number of times of the time reversed, the more difficult it was for him to maintain.
‘Is this the disadvantage?’ Jiang Ming couldn’t help but whimper.
It was at this moment that Jiang Ming recalled the advantages of the exclusive cultivation space within the Supreme Pagoda.
After Jiang Ming had enjoyed the intimacy with Linglong, he went into the depth of the Sea of Chaos because he wanted to cultivate quietly for some time.
As for cultivating in the Chuyang Peak? Jiang Ming was afraid that the aura he accidentally leaked out would lead to the destruction of the entire Tianyuan Realm. Even though he could support the barrier he formed continuously, he didn’t dare to take the risk.
In the depth of the Sea of Chaos, Jiang Ming arranged for a great formation for time reverse. The formation was to accelerate the time by 10,000 times only. If Jiang Ming were to make it faster, the power of the time would be contorted and collapsed.
‘The life of creation within me is so strong that even Time Laws would collapse!’ Jiang Ming had no other alternative to further accelerating the time. ‘I wonder how far I can achieve from this cultivation?’ As Jiang Ming thought, he started his retreat.
