After choosing to continue, Han Yan entered the illusion.
He opened his eyes and came to an extremely dark and mysterious space. In front of him was a ball of red light that was changing between light and dark. It was a terrifying red.
He saw Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan was in that ball of red light. He was entangled by black tentacles covered in spikes, and only his soul was left.
This is...
Han Yan frowned and looked up. This ball of red light was extremely vast, like a star field. It was filled with a scarlet aura, and he couldn't see any living beings or dead souls.
He looked at Zhou Fan. Those black tentacles didn't look like real bodies, but more like illusions. However, they were indeed absorbing Zhou Fan's soul power.
Just as Han Yan was wondering where this place was, a line of words appeared in front of him.
[Blissful Purgatory: A chaotic land formed by the will of an ancient Chaos Fiend God. Those who enter will be immersed in the blissful illusion until their soul and body are devoured.]
An ancient Chaos Fiend God?
Han Yan frowned even more.
The illusion shattered. He opened his eyes and asked, "Who schemed against Zhou Fan to enter the Blissful Purgatory?"
[Ten billion years of lifespan will be deducted. Continue?]
Continue!
A figure appeared in Han Yan's mind.
The Darkness Saint!
It was indeed him!
The Darkness Saint was the only Chaos expert who had been coveting the Heavenly Dao recently!
This fellow was courting death.
Zhou Fan was formed by Shichido Sei's Dharma Idol. Wasn't this a slap to Shichido Sei's face?
Judging from the lifespan consumed by the evolution, the Darkness Saint couldn't be Shichido Sei's match.
Han Yan put aside his distracting thoughts and continued to cultivate.
It was really dangerous to leave the Heavenly Dao. In any case, Zhou Fan had Shichido Sei's backing. There was no need to trouble him personally.
...
Decades later...
[Detected that you have reached 60,000 years old. You have taken another step forward in your life. You have the following choices:]
"One, immediately come out of seclusion, preach the Dao, and seize the providence of the Heavenly Dao. You can obtain a Great Dao fragment."
"Second, cultivate in a low profile and form your own Dao. Stay away from karma, right and wrong. You'll be able to obtain a Grand Dao Fragment, a precious treasure, and a Heavenly Dao Spirit Stone."
Han Yan opened his eyes and couldn't help but sigh. Time had passed so quickly.
Fifty thousand years old seemed like just yesterday.
The system behaved itself and didn't put Han Yan in a dilemma.
However, this reward was too meager.
Han Yan silently chose the second option.
[You chose to cultivate in a low-profile manner. You have obtained a Great Dao Fragment, a supreme treasure, and a Heavenly Dao Spirit Stone.]
[Congratulations on obtaining the Supreme Treasure of Freedom — Killing Dao Token]
[Killing Dao Token: A supreme treasure for killing. By sacrificing one's lifespan and providence, it can be used to kill enemies. Words are law. You are not allowed to kill living beings who have no karma with you. It cannot be used unless in battle.]
Han Yan raised his eyebrows.
It looked so awesome!
Han Yan immediately took out the Killing Dao Token. This token was different from what he had imagined. It was more like an unsharpened sword. It was three feet long and completely blood-red. There were traces of fluorescent light flowing around it. As he held the token, a terrifying killing intent surged toward him, causing his black hair to flutter in the wind.
Incredible!
Han Yan began to recognize it as his master.
After half a year, he finally succeeded in subduing the Killing Dao Token.
This was the first time he had put in so much effort. If it wasn't for the system, he might not have been able to subdue this treasure at all. He might even have been devoured by it.
Han Yan immediately entered the simulation trial and began to use this treasure.
The lifespan consumed in the simulation trial was fake. Hence, he could squander it as he wished.
Against Heavenly Lord Lawlessness, he sacrificed one trillion years of his lifespan and spat out the word 'kill'. Heavenly Lord Lawlessness turned into ashes on the spot.
So domineering!
Han Yan's heartbeat quickened.
He didn't even need to sacrifice his lifespan to deal with ordinary Sages. He could kill them instantly.
This was the supreme treasure for killing?
Han Yan's heartbeat quickened. It was equivalent to a different type of Book of Misfortune!
However, the Book of Misfortune walked the path of persistence, while the Killing Dao Token walked the path of dominance.
The Book of Misfortune had a wider range of uses. It could kill people without leaving a trace. However, the Killing Dao Token had to be used in battle. Han Yan couldn't hide in the Daoist temple and use the Killing Dao Token to ambush his enemies.
Han Yan began to challenge Patriarch Xi Tian. Even though he had the Killing Dao Token, he was still killed instantly. This was because he didn't dodge at the beginning.
'I will directly sacrifice 300 trillion years of my lifespan to try!'
Han Yan silently thought. He then entered the simulation trial again and directly sacrificed his lifespan.
"Kill!"
Han Yan spat out the word. The Killing Dao Token trembled in his hand and burst out with red light.
Patriarch Xi Tian, who was high and mighty in the distance, suddenly turned into ashes.
Han Yan was pleasantly surprised.
I succeeded?
I can finally wrestle with a Sage of the Great Path?
At this moment, Han Yan saw Patriarch Xi Tian's figure condense again. Then, he spat out a word, "Kill."
Han Yan died on the spot.
He couldn't resist at all!
Han Yan opened his eyes with a face full of lingering fear.
'I must not provoke Patriarch Xi Tian. Otherwise, even if I use the Freedom Treasure and sacrifice all my lifespan, I won't be able to kill him.'
Han Yan calmed himself down.
He almost became arrogant.
He couldn't help but feel grateful to Patriarch Xi Tian.
Although Patriarch Xi Tian didn't know, he had always encouraged and warned Han Yan.
He was really a Sage!
Han Yan took out the Heavenly Dao Spirit Stone. He suddenly had a bold idea.
Why don't I upgrade the Book of Misfortune and upgrade the Killing Dao Token instead?
He immediately tried.
[Do not upgrade the Killing Dao Token. Once this treasure is upgraded to the Great Path level, it will devour you and give birth to a Great Path Spirit.]
When he saw this line of words that suddenly appeared, Han Yan was so frightened that he stopped.
He almost flipped over!
A Dharma treasure could become a spirit?
Han Yan had no choice but to obediently upgrade the Book of Misfortune.
In the end, the Book of Misfortune was upgraded from a Heavenly Dao Treasure to a Freedom Spirit Treasure.
Holding the Book of Misfortune, Han Yan could clearly feel that the aura of misfortune was very strong.
Unknowingly, he had nurtured an extremely terrifying evil creature.
"Should I curse a Sage to death to liven things up?"
Han Yan had another thought.
Forget it.
He didn't want to cause another Immeasurable Calamity. It was quite good now. The Sages didn't provoke him, and they could still maintain the order of the Heavenly Dao and protect the Celestial World.
If the Sages didn't manage the Heavenly Dao, how could Han Yan cultivate in peace?
It was not easy to determine whether one was an enemy or a friend.
Han Yan put away the Book of Misfortune, perked up, and continued to cultivate.
He was getting closer and closer to the late-stage Golden Immortal realm of Primordial Chaos Daluo!
He was confident that he could break through within 10,000 years!
After that, he would reach the perfected Golden Immortal realm of Primordial Chaos Daluo within 100,000 years!
His cultivation speed was not bad!
...
In the Buddhist Daoist temple in the 33rd Heaven.
In the hall, Qiu Xilai was meditating on a lotus seat. Golden light lingered around his body, forming a pillar of light that looked sacred and dignified.
A light shadow appeared in front of Qiu Xilai.
"I can feel that Han Yan has become stronger again."
The spirit of the Heavenly Dao said in a low voice, his tone filled with uneasiness.
Qiu Xilai didn't even open his eyes. "It's not surprising. His talent is ridiculous. Moreover, I have no way to deal with him now. Let's talk about it after I reach Dao Integration."
The spirit of the Heavenly Dao said, "Even if you reach Dao Integration, you might not be his match, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless you obtain the power of Daozu."
"Daozu has been missing for a long time. Do you know where he is?"
"I don't know, but I know his three corpse clones. If you can obtain one of them, you can easily kill Han Yan."
