Within the main hall of the Zhaixing Mansion, a thousand "cocoons" as tall as a person lay quietly in the main hall. A thousand doppelgangers of Zhou Tong were being nurtured within them.
The entire process was similar to when Zhou Tong had first been born in this world, nurtured by the heavens and earth.
Given Zhou Tong's background, if he had been born on the Sun Star or in the primal chaos, he would have easily become a True God the moment he was born. This nurturing process was a simulation of his birth. Although it was a little slow, it was the best method for Zhou Tong, who didn't have many resources on hand.
"Boom!"
Primal chaos surged, continuously fusing into the Zhaixing Mansion and the thousand "cocoons" formed by the Golden Sun Flames. The power of primal chaos and the Golden Sun Flames continuously nurtured each of Zhou Tong's doppelgangers, causing their strength to grow rapidly.
It wasn't just the divine body and spirit that were growing. Even the Pure Yang Golden pill was growing.
This nurturing process took a full ten years. After ten years, all the cocoons finally dissipated, and the thousand Zhou Tong successfully broke out of the cocoons.
"After ten years of nurturing, I've finally mastered more than half of the second level of the Thousand Bodies Sutra … all that's left is the problem of heartforce," Zhou Tong silently said to himself.
His divine body, Golden pill, and spirit had all reached the level of his true body. Only heartforce was still scattered.
However, these years of nurturing had improved the heartforce of each of his doppelgangers quite a bit. Although it hadn't reached the level of his true body, once these doppelgangers merged into one, his heartforce would definitely become even stronger.
Of course, this was only a quantitative increase. In terms of quality, he was still at the Third Realm — the Sovereign Realm.
"Now it's time to go out and take a look. I wonder what the situation in the Three Realms has been like during this time!" One of Zhou Tong's doppelgangers stood up and walked out of the Zhaixing Mansion. The other 999 doppelgangers remained in the Zhaixing Mansion, comprehending the Heavenly Dao and the Great Dao.
The greatest advantage of having many doppelgangers, especially when the doppelgangers had reached the level of the main body, was that they could comprehend the Great Dao as well. Every additional doppelganger was equivalent to doubling the speed of one's comprehension. 1,000 doppelgangers represented 1,000 times the speed of one's comprehension.
After leaving the Zhaixing Manor, Zhou Tong immediately rushed over to where Chi Ming Daozu was.
The speed of the golden sunbeam was unparalleled. In the blink of an eye, Zhou Tong had traversed more than half of the Three Realms and appeared near Chi Ming Daozu's dojo.
"Oh, you've already comprehended the Space Grand Dao and the Time Grand Dao? A thousand clones. Their comprehension of the Dao is really fast. How long has it been? They have comprehended another Grand Dao. Moreover, it is a Grand Dao of Space and Time. " As soon as he arrived near Chi Ming Daozu's dojo, Zhou Tong was stunned. He had actually comprehended the Grand Daos of Space and Time in such a short period of time?
Still, it made sense. Given his own insights into the Dao of Space and Time, he should have been able to comprehend them quite quickly. In addition, during the few centuries he had spent in Undermoon Lake, World God Northrest had left behind some sword-arts related to the Dao of Spacetime. After meditating on those sword-arts, he had gained a deeper understanding of the Dao of Space and Time.
This, combined with the fact that he had just created a thousand doppelgangers, meant that his training speed had increased by a thousand times.
For him to be able to comprehend the Grand Daos of Space and Time in such a short period of time was normal.
Zhou Tong was in a good mood as he entered Chi Ming Daozu's dojo.
After receiving the invitation from the Celestial Immortal who had received him, he prepared to go to Chi Ming Daozu's tallest mountain peak. During this journey, he had also gained insights into the Grand Dao of Wildthunder, the Grand Dao of the Blood Sea, the Grand Dao of the Nebula, and many other Grand Daos.
"The reason why I was able to gain insights into the Grand Daos so quickly isn't just because of my doppelgangers. It's also because of how sturdy my foundation is." Zhou Tong pondered for a moment, then began to understand many things.
According to what World God Northrest had left behind, different chaosworlds had different ways of operating the Heavenly Daos. Thus, many cultivators, after gaining insights into the Heavenly Daos of a chaosworld, would find it difficult to adapt to the Heavenly Daos of another chaosworld.
However, for the countless truly powerful experts, so long as they had a sturdy foundation, they would be able to gain insights into a large number of Daos in an extremely short period of time, no matter which chaosworld they entered. In this world, the so-called 'sturdy foundation' referred to the corresponding 'Force of X', such as swordforce, abyssforce, fire-force, and other such things.
This was why the most powerful figure of the Three Realms, Nüwa, had been able to gain insights into so many Daos.
In the Three Realms, there were a total of 108,000 Daos, and Nüwa had mastered 84,000 of them.
Within Chi Ming Daozu's training hall. Zhou Tong made his way forward without any obstructions at all. In fact, before he even reached the central mountain peak, Chi Ming Daozu had already led his own disciples out to welcome him.
After reaching the True God level, Zhou Tong was now on equal footing with Chi Ming Daozu. Upon Zhou Tong's arrival, Chi Ming Daozu naturally had to personally rise to his feet to welcome him. Only then would he be courteous.
Zhou Tong swept the area with his gaze. Amongst the disciples of Chi Ming Daozu, he saw a few familiar faces. For example, there was Xiamang Xun, as well as Ji Ning, who was mixed amongst Chi Ming Daozu's disciples.
By now, Ji Ning had already overcome his Empyrean Tribulation and had officially become an Empyrean God. In addition, he had also officially become a Pure Yang True Immortal in the Dao of Ki. His foundation was truly astonishing.
"Eh?! The divine ability I transmitted to him seems to have undergone some changes? The body in front of me isn't his original body? "Zhou Tong's heart stirred as he sensed something.
This Ji Ning in front of him had most likely trained in some sort of cloning divine ability, similar to the [Thousand Bodies Sutra] divine ability which Linley had.
The divine ability which Zhou Tong had transmitted to him last time wasn't something which a human could train in; it required Zhou Tong's assistance in order to train in it. Thus, Zhou Tong could clearly sense that some changes had occurred to his divine ability, and these changes were similar to the changes which had occurred after he had formed clones.
"Can it be that this is the stone stele of the Pangaea chaos-kingdom from the original novel?" Zhou Tong had a vague guess.
In the original novel, this item had always been in the hands of the Youngflame clan of the Grand Xia. Ji Ning had only acquired this treasure after slaying Youngflame Freak of the Youngflame clan. From it, he had acquired seven techniques, one of which was a cloning technique.
Although Zhou Tong knew of this opportunity, he hadn't been able to completely kill Youngflame Freak, who had trained in a cloning technique. Thus, he hadn't taken action.
Youngflame Freak had eighteen clones, all of which were hidden in different locations. Without a special method to lock onto him, even if one or two of his clones were killed, one wouldn't be able to completely kill him.
But now … it seemed as though this treasure had fallen into Ji Ning's hands.
"It should be that while I wasn't here, Daozu over in the Three Realms helped him lock onto Youngflame Freak …" Zhou Tong mused to himself. Only Daozu, who had gained insights into a Dao of the Heavens, had such an ability.
