Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”

Gu Qingzhu’s actions were proceeding like a raging fire.

At this moment, Su Yuan had finally stepped into the deepest part of the Miluo Dao Court, arriving at the court’s most secret treasury.

Standing at the treasury entrance, Su Yuan could feel a sharp, lethal killing intent locking onto him. The slightest unusual movement would immediately invite a thunderous strike!

Su Yuan even felt a threat to his life!

Su Yuan secretly activated his Chaos Trait, [Great Power Bearing], which was sufficient to ignore most damage. Yet, he still faintly sensed a sliver of unease; the [Duty in Peril] trait was still sounding an alarm!

This showed just how terrifying the hidden protective measures were.

Su Yuan took out a crystal and said, “I have received a reward from the Miluo Dao Lord, granting me permission to choose any single item from the treasury!”

The Guardian Spirit, Little Star, appeared out of thin air, expressionless, and said, “Authentication passed. You may enter.”

Su Yuan felt that lethal killing intent finally recede and go dormant.

A portal materialized before Su Yuan and opened.

Su Yuan composed himself and stepped through in one stride.

What met his eyes was a nine-story pagoda. On the pagoda’s body were displayed various treasures. Each story held nine treasures. The nine-story pagoda thus contained a total of eighty-one treasures, all laid out before Su Yuan.

The Guardian Spirit appeared before Su Yuan again and said, “You may take any one of the treasures above.”

Su Yuan curiously examined these treasures. Suppressed under the nine-story pagoda, they all appeared rather ordinary and unremarkable. If not for being in this treasury, he would have absolutely overlooked them.

“True Name Dao Principle, activate!”

Su Yuan invoked the power of the True Name Dao Principle, first enveloping the first item.

The True Name Dao Principle began to obtain this treasure’s true name and its possessed effects.

[Source of Thunder]: The first Chaos Thunder born from Chaos, fused with eight Dao Principles: Lightning Dao Principle, Destruction Dao Principle, Life Dao Principle, Creation Dao Principle, Light Dao Principle, Energy Dao Principle, Time Dao Principle, and Supreme Yang Dao Principle. Refining it allows comprehension of Eighth-order Fused Dao Principle insights. This treasure can be used to deduce a ninth compatible Dao Principle for fusion, offering the potential to condense a perfect Ninth-order Fused Dao Principle and break through to Chaos Dominator.

The very first item made Su Yuan look at it with great interest.

This was actually the first wisp of thunder born in the Taihao Chaos, naturally fused with eight Dao Principles. Adding just one more offered the potential to condense a complete Chaos Dao Path.

This was truly a rare and precious treasure in the world.

“So precious?” Su Yuan couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

The information he had probed was already enough to stir one’s heart.

Su Yuan suppressed his inner astonishment and looked at the second treasure.

The True Name Dao Principle activated once more, inspecting the treasure’s information.

[Dream Crystal]: A one-time-use natural Dao Artifact. Using it allows one to experience the lifetime of a Twelfth-order Fused Dao Principle powerhouse, potentially gaining that powerhouse’s cultivation insights. However, there is also a risk of losing oneself and transforming into that powerhouse.

Another special treasure. With proper preparation, one could gain all the cultivation insights of a Twelfth-order Fused Dao Venerable out of thin air. This was practically no different from ascending to heaven in a single step.

Such a treasure was enough to forge a powerful cultivator, yet it was left here in the treasury gathering dust.

Su Yuan sighed, “Such good things… It’s truly a vexing choice. Being able to pick only one is such a pity.”

Right at this moment, the True Name Jade Disc within Su Yuan’s mind suddenly emitted a faint glow.

Su Yuan was immediately startled and looked towards the True Name Jade Disc. He saw its light shining upon a treasure on the fifth story of the pagoda.

Su Yuan locked his gaze onto that treasure.

The power of the True Name Dao Principle enveloped it, obtaining its basic information.

[True Name Treasure Record]: A catalog recording the myriad treasures of the world. After obtaining a wisp of a treasure’s aura, one can use the True Name Treasure Record to simulate effects ranging from one hundred-millionth to one percent of the original treasure’s power.

On the surface, this treasure didn’t seem particularly exaggerated. Being able to simulate up to one percent of the effects of myriad treasures seemed very underwhelming.

One didn’t need to guess to know that the better the treasure, the worse the simulated effect would be. Especially since it required obtaining the corresponding treasure’s aura first, making it even more underwhelming.

But since it could be placed in this treasury, its effects definitely couldn’t be considered poor.

Most crucially, this treasure’s name was also named with the words “True Name”!

Su Yuan pointed at this treasure and said to the Guardian Spirit, “What is this treasure called?”

“This treasure is called the Book of Replication! It can replicate the effects of other treasures, capable of replicating up to the power of a Twelfth-order Fused Dao Artifact!” Little Star explained.

“I want this treasure!” Su Yuan declared.

“May I confirm, are you certain?”

“Confirmed!” Su Yuan replied calmly.

The Guardian Spirit offered no further persuasion. The suppressing effect on the treasure from the pagoda body gradually weakened.

This book-shaped treasure immediately erupted with a dazzling, brilliant glow, revealing its extraordinary quality.

Su Yuan’s True Name Dao Principle power immediately flowed into the book.

The book very compliantly flew towards Su Yuan and vanished into Su Yuan’s True Spirit.

Guardian Spirit Little Star immediately expelled Su Yuan from the treasury.

Su Yuan suddenly found himself back outside the treasury.

That faint, almost imperceptible sense of crisis once again enveloped him.

Su Yuan smiled slightly, took a step, and instantly left the place.

In the blink of an eye, he had returned to his own Seven Stars Dao Palace.

He turned his senses inward to observe his True Spirit.

He saw that the True Name Treasure Record had already drawn close to the True Name Jade Disc.

A special connection seemed to have been established between the True Name Treasure Record and the True Name Jade Disc.

Strands of mysterious power transmitted from the True Name Jade Disc into the True Name Treasure Record.

Su Yuan curiously observed the changes in the True Name Treasure Record.

He saw the treasure information recorded on it begin to change, gradually revealing information about some Dao Principles.

Su Yuan looked closely and was surprised to discover that the Dao Principles recorded were not just the ordinary ones commonly seen, but also included some fused Dao Principles!

Su Yuan grew expectant. Could it be that this treasure would become a precious book recording the myriad Dao Principles?

Time flowed slowly.

When the changes concluded.

Su Yuan eagerly checked the results.

The treasure’s name had changed first, evolving from [True Name Treasure Record] to [True Name Dao Record].

What it recorded was indeed all the Dao Principles of the world, including single Dao Principles and all fused Dao Principles!

Within it, he even saw the Miluo Dao Lord’s fused Dao Principle.

[Fused Dao Principle]: Miluo Fused Dao Principle

[Grade]: Seventeenth-order Fused Dao Principle

[Ranking]: Forty-third in the Taihao Chaos

[Composition]: Boundless Heaven Dao Principle, …
