Once he entered the Holy Domain's Divine Capital, he would be completely safe.
When Xiao Chen returned to his own courtyard, he heaved a sigh of relief. It was really a narrow escape from death this time.
He had only wanted to kill some mastiffs in the periphery, but someone had set up a trap and he had nearly died to the mastiffs.
Xiao Chen only wanted to nurture the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame and the Universe Origin True Flame. However, the moment he opened his eyes, the leaders of the four super factions targeted him.
Fortunately, there was no danger, and the harvest was not bad.
Now that Xiao Chen's cultivation reached peak Consummation, he could be considered officially a heaven-defying Sovereign Personage.
As a Sovereign Personage, one's Veritable Essence Energy and Soul Energy had already been cultivated to their limits. There was no more room for improvement.
Nurturing the Universe Origin True Flame and the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame was part of the plan. His cultivation was a pleasant surprise.
Normally, it would take at least a year or two of hard work to reach the peak.
This was because the Faux God World had an extremely dense environment in the first place. Furthermore, there were all sorts of resources that could be exchanged for with Faux God Coins.
The next direction of cultivation was to condense Divine Seals.
After forming the Divine Seal, the might of Xiao Chen's Soul Energy and Dao Domain would reach a whole new level. At that time, even if Fang Shaobai and the others worked together, Xiao Chen would not fear them.
In the Primal Chaos Flame Sea, Xiao Chen had to use a scheme to trick these four people away.
This was because the four were peak experts among half-step Sovereign Emperors. With the support of their Divine Seals, they were able to survive. Martial Techniques and Cultivation Techniques could bring out a might far surpassing that of a heaven-defying Sovereign Personage. It would be fine if one person worked together. However, if four worked together, Xiao Chen would not stand a chance of victory.
Forming a Divine Seal was the first step to breaking through to the Sovereign Emperor Realm. It was crucial to the Sovereign Emperor Realm.
Divine Seals were divided into different levels. The more Dao Domains that fused with the soul, the stronger the Divine Seal. The attributes of the Dao Domain would also affect the Divine Seal. For example, the Divine Seal formed by the Death Dao Domain was stronger than the Divine Seal formed by the Thunder Dao Domain. Of course, it would be much more difficult.
Right now, Xiao Chen only grasped one Dao Domain — the Saber Dao and the Ice Dao. He had yet to break through to the Dao Domain. As for reincarnation, he was still stuck at the level of will. He had yet to grasp the Dao of reincarnation.
If he had a choice, Xiao Chen would naturally choose to merge the Cycle Dao Domain with his soul and form a Divine Seal.
However, this was clearly unrealistic. The will of cycle was too difficult to cultivate. While Xiao Chen was confident of grasping the Cycle Dao, he did not know if he could break through to the Dao Domain.
This was because the Reincarnation Dao was too powerful. It had already surpassed time and space. It was an ability that even Faux Gods would find difficult to grasp.
Putting aside the Samsara Dao for now, Xiao Chen was not someone who was willing to be mediocre. He would definitely not just fuse a single Dao Domain with his soul.
If Xiao Chen could not break through to the Dao Domain in his Ice Dao and Saber Dao, he definitely would not form a Divine Seal.
"Next, I'll focus my cultivation on comprehending the Saber Dao and the Ice Dao."
Xiao Chen revealed a contemplative expression. It seemed that because he had merged with the Ice Fire Divine Origin, he felt that his Ice Dao could break through to the Dao Domain at any time.
On the other hand, Xiao Chen's specialty, the Saber Dao, was forever separated from the Dao Domain by a thin layer of fog. It felt very close yet very far.
He had once lost some things, and it was extremely difficult to find them again.
"Oh, right, I have not looked at my Ice Fire Lotus Platform in detail yet."
Xiao Chen had nearly forgotten about one of his greatest gains on this trip. With a thought, the Ice Fire Lotus Platform flew out of his storage ring.
The lotus platform consisted of a total of three hundred and sixty lotus leaves. It had a natural Dao and Spiritual Energy. With one look, one could tell that it was extraordinary.
As Xiao Chen looked at the lotus platform floating in the air, he entered deep thought. I probably won't be able to make out anything from just looking at it.
I don't know much about the Ice Fire Lotus Platform, either. I have to ask someone.
Let's go to the Hundred Treasure Pavilion!
The Hundred Treasure Pavilion was a place where one could exchange Faux God Coins for treasures. There were excellent appraisers there. They could appraise any treasure. Of course, that was on the premise that one had sufficient Faux God Coins.
After a while, Xiao Chen arrived at the Hundred Treasure Pavilion's appraisal area.
"This item does not need any special appraisal. Give me five hundred Faux God Coins, and I can tell you its origins and uses."
The appraiser was an old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion. His cultivation was unfathomable. He gave a price with one look.
Xiao Chen still had some Faux God Coins on hand, so he happily handed over five hundred Faux God Coins and waited for the appraiser's answer.
"This is the Ice Fire Lotus Platform, born in the Ice Fire Continent. The Ice Fire Lotus Platform has always been favored by the Buddhist sect's esteemed monks. Its greatest use is comprehending the Dao. Even the esteemed monks of the Buddhist sect can use this item to help them comprehend Buddhist principles … "
When Xiao Chen heard that, he felt excited. Indeed, Yuan Zhen had kept a trick up his sleeve.
How was this a lotus platform that esteemed monks used to show off their status? It was clearly a priceless treasure.
"For others, they can use this lotus platform to comprehend the Dao, Martial Techniques, and some mysteries. It can allow them to achieve twice the results with half the effort. It is similar to the Faux God prayer mats in the Comprehension Platform. However, as it is naturally formed, it is even better. "
The appraiser continued, "If this item is forged using a Buddhist sect Secret Technique, it can be refined into a Soul Tool that can be used to ward off lightning and undergo tribulations. The most important thing is that your Ice Fire Lotus Platform has a total of three hundred and sixty-eight lotus petals. The highest-quality lotus platform that appeared in the Ice Fire Wasteland only has one hundred and sixty petals. Its value is simply inestimable. "
I nearly got cheated. Xiao Chen thought to himself, I got lucky. Had I listened to Yuan Zhen, I would have cried myself to death.
Xiao Chen suppressed his excitement and asked, "Do I need a Buddhist sect Secret Technique to forge it? Can the Faux God World refine it? "
"No!"
The appraiser shook his head. Then, he looked at Xiao Chen and gave a negative answer. Then, he added, "You are a member of the Heavenly Alliance. Perhaps the Heavenly Alliance can think of something after you go out. After all, the Heavenly Alliance gathers all the grandmaster blacksmiths in the world. It might be possible. "
"Many thanks."
This gave Xiao Chen some hope that he could think of something after he went out.
The old man was very responsible. After saying that, he explained the many uses of the Ice Fire Lotus Platform to Xiao Chen. The old man even explained its origins in detail, including the strong Secret Treasures forged using it in history.
This made Xiao Chen feel that the five hundred Faux God Coins were worth it. After receiving the Ice Fire Lotus Platform, he thanked the old man again.
"Young Master Xiao, you are too polite. This is just this old man's duty," the old man said with a smile, feeling satisfied with Xiao Chen's politeness.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, feeling curious, "Senior, you know me?"
"Naturally. You broke the thousand-year record for the Trial Tower's first floor, and you broke the third floor's highest difficulty in history. How can I not know you? I remember that many Faux God bladesmen wanted to take you as a disciple back then. However, Senior Xi Mu stopped them, "the appraiser said casually with a nod.
The appraiser nodded slightly as he spoke casually. However, his words shocked Xiao Chen.
What?!
Back then, many Faux God bladesmen wanted to take me as a disciple, but this Senior Xi Mu stopped them?
Xiao Chen did not feel surprised when he heard that. Back then, he only thought that he was not too outstanding and did not overthink it. Unexpectedly, there was such a secret, which flabbergasted him.
"Is this true?"
"Of course. How can I speak carelessly about such a thing?"
Xiao Chen did not say anything more. He performed a cupped-fist salute and took his leave. When he walked out of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, he felt somewhat confused.
Why did Senior Xi Mu do this? Is it because I defeated his statue, so he hates me?
That's not right. If he hates me out of jealousy, he would not have given me the painting and let me obtain the Fiendish Saber inheritance.
Hah, the thoughts of that old senior are really unfathomable.
Xiao Chen sighed and stopped thinking. Then, he returned to the courtyard and took out the second painting that Lu Benwei once gave him.
The style of the second painting was different from the first one. It was very realistic.
It was a picture of a lake with ripples on the surface of the lake. A drop of water slowly fell from the sky.
Aside from that, there was nothing else.
Compared to the first painting, this second painting was even simpler and more ordinary, even harder to understand.
However, Xiao Chen comprehended All Things Rejoicing Together from the first painting. This second painting definitely had its mysteries.
Now that Xiao Chen's Saber Dao had reached a bottleneck, he placed most of his hopes of breaking through the bottleneck of the Dao Domain on this second painting.
"Perhaps it would be better for me to sit on the lotus platform and comprehend it."
As he thought this, Xiao Chen took out the Ice Fire Lotus Platform and sat down cross-legged.
Xiao Chen immediately sensed a profound and incomprehensible feeling coming from the lotus platform, filling his entire body.
It was just like when he comprehended at the bottom of the lake. Xiao Chen now understood. It turned out that he was already sitting on the vague form of the lotus platform at that time.
Let's not care about that for now. Let's see what exactly is so profound about this painting.
