When the last branch of the Chen Clan took root in the Southwest Danxia Valley.
Chen Sheng laid the "Danxia Vein Protection Array" for them using Yin Yang Dao Principle and watched as his descendants constructed the initial outlines of their abode relying on the spirit veins in the valley. He finally sighed with relief.
For decades, although he went through several fierce battles, he laid down dozens of foundations for the Chen Clan in the Spirit Realm.
These branches, like scattered stars, would begin to spread out rapidly from these foundations.
The safety of the next reincarnation improved significantly!
The taut string in Chen Sheng’s heart finally loosened, and his state of mind beca peaceful and clear, with no trace of restlessness.
He returned to the Four Seas Grotto Heaven, directly entered the Enlightennt Platform, sat cross-legged, subrged his Primordial Spirit into the sea of consciousness, and no longer deliberately operated spiritual power but emptied his heart spirit, quietly comprehending the transformations of the Small Thousand World.
The birth and death of the alternation of day and night, the cycles of day and night, the balance of the changing seasons; countless mysterious Dao Principles and doctrines surged into his sea of consciousness like a tide.
In such deep contemplation, three years passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the Four Seas Grotto Heaven suddenly stirred with unusual fluctuations. Black and white spirit light naturally surrounded Chen Sheng’s body, initially flowing slowly, then gradually becoming as turbulent as a waterfall.
The Path of Yin Yang Annihilation Sword, which had stayed at the Second Realm Perfection, silently broke through the invisible bottleneck after countless insights!
"Buzz—"
At the mont of Dao Principle breakthrough, a clear Dao sound resonated in the sea of consciousness, and countless profound insights surged like a flood breaking a dam.
"Life is annihilation; annihilation is life!"
His control over the "Path of Annihilation Sword" reached a new height, allowing him to integrate the rhythm of yin-yang cycles into the sword light, greatly enhancing its lethality.
The breakthrough in Dao Principle also strengthened his Primordial Spirit, which had been light gold but was now as solid as amber, with a slight Sword Dao mark appearing at the middle of his eyebrows.
"The Dao Principle breakthrough again, but the cultivation still falls short."
Chen Sheng’s cultivation remained at the Divinity Transformation, still a small distance from the late stage of Divinity Transformation.
He extended his palm, with black and white spirit light swirling in his palm. Though the total amount of mana hadn’t increased, it was several tis more solid than before, and the compatibility of Dao Principle and spiritual power was elevated to a new level.
There was no trace of regret on his face; instead, he had a knowing smile: "Cultivation is rely the water flowing when a canal is ford; understanding of Dao Principle is the key."
He understood the true essence of cultivation in the Spirit Realm. A Divinity Transformation cultivator’s lifespan is nearly ten thousand years. As long as there is enough spiritual energy and ti, leveraging elixir pills or secret realm cultivation, advancing to Divinity Transformation Perfection is not difficult.
However, to break through from Divinity Transformation to Void Refining and condense one’s unique Dao Domain, the core lies in the comprehension of Dao Principle.
If the Dao Principle tier is insufficient, no matter how high the cultivation is, the Dao Domain cannot be condensed; if the Dao Principle realm is inadequate, the Dao Domain will be incomplete.
Many Divinity Transformation Perfection cultivators were trapped at the bottleneck of Dao Principle for their entire lives, ultimately perishing in silence when their lifespan was exhausted, ending up as re dust in the Spirit Realm.
His Path of Yin Yang Annihilation Sword has now reached the Third Realm, and the cultivation can be steadily accumulated.
Chen Sheng was about to operate his spiritual power to stabilize the Dao Principle when a familiar fluctuation suddenly ca—The Communication Talisman from Chen Xihua.
With a flick of his finger, the pale golden Communication Talisman turned into a stream of light and rushed into his brow, and Chen Xihua’s calm voice followed:
"Fellow Daoist Life-Annihilating, long ti no see. In seven years, the Three Extres Dao Assembly will be held. This is a once-in-ten-thousand-years event in the Three Extres Domain, and you must not miss it."
"Three Extres Dao Assembly?"
Chen Sheng raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes. Over the years, he had been focused on setting up branches, knowing little about the Spirit Realm’s grand gatherings, having only heard scattered rumors.
As he pondered, the Communication Talisman added:
"This Dao assembly is for Divinity Transformation cultivators under three thousand years old in the Three Extres Domain. The winner can receive High Grade Dao Artifacts, Dao Principle Enlightennt Scrolls, and the chance to be accepted as a direct disciple by an Integration Dharma Master."
...
Half a month later, in the Celestial Capital Immortal City.
The walls were engraved with flowing Void Runes, defending against external enemies and gathering Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
The city streets were wide, bustling with a continuous stream of cultivators coming and going.
Golden Core cultivators were seen everywhere, Nascent Soul cultivators were also common, and occasionally Divinity Transformation cultivators could be seen flying across the sky, a scene of prosperity.
Chen Sheng stood in the center of the super long-distance teleportation array, engraved with ancient Void Runes, and the runes flowed with dense spatial spiritual power.
This teleportation array could span several State Mansions, with its transmission distance asured in trillions of miles.
He had just embedded a teleportation Spirit Stone into the array hub when a cheerful voice ca from beside him.
"Fellow cultivator, so young and extraordinary, could it be that you are going to participate in the Three Extres Dao Assembly?"
The speaker was an old Divinity Transformation cultivator dressed in a gray robe, white-haired and wrinkled, but with sharp, wise eyes, taking a keen interest in observing Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng’s heart moved, and he asked fluently: "Oh? What makes you think so?"
The old Divinity Transformation cultivator stroked his beard proudly and pointed to the cultivators entering the teleportation array successively:
"You may not know, in the past month, almost nine out of ten young Divinity Transformation cultivators coming to use this super long-distance teleportation array are going for the Dao Assembly."
"This assembly, held only once in ten thousand years, is sothing many people never encounter in their lifeti. Even an old guy like who exceeds the age limit wants to join the excitent and see the style of the young generation."
He paused and added in a lower voice:
"Besides, I heard that the specifications of this Dao assembly are far beyond the past, with as many as a hundred spots for the Creation Treasure Realm, twenty more than the last session!"
"It is said to be a treasured place of enlightennt passed down from the ancient period, and once entered, comprehending the Dao Domain is almost a certainty, sothing countless Divinity Transformation cultivators dream of."
Chen Sheng’s heart moved. His understanding of the Three Extres Dao Assembly only stemd from Chen Xihua’s Communication, knowing it was a grand event in the Three Extres Domain for Divinity Transformation cultivators under three thousand years old with rich rewards to be won.
Now, hearing the old cultivator’s words, he realized the weight of the assembly was much heavier than expected.
Seeing that the old cultivator had a boastful nature, just in ti, Chen Sheng needed to understand more of the assembly’s details, so he put on a humble and inquisitive expression:
"Old sir, knowledgeable and experienced, this junior knows little about the Three Extres Dao Assembly. Could you share its background and any specifics?"
Seeing Chen Sheng’s humble inquiry, the old cultivator beca even more enthusiastic, explaining with great animation:
"The origin of the Three Extres Dao Assembly is quite ancient, tracing back to the Self-dissolution of the Mahayana Venerable of the Three Extres Taihuang Mansion in ancient tis."
"The Three Extres Taihuang Mansion completely split, forming the current Beiji Immortal Mansion, Antarctic Immortal Mansion, and Supre Immortal Mansion..."
"In the struggle for the Creation Treasure Realm left by the Taihuang Supre... the three factions fought relentlessly... even a few Integration stage cultivators fell."
"Later on, after the Tribulation Crossing Daoist Monarchs from the three sects negotiated peace, they jointly set the rules to jointly govern the Creation Treasure Realm and host the Dao Assembly, both to select talents and to resolve regional conflicts..."
"Eventually, the scale of the Dao Assembly kept expanding, no longer limited..."
The old cultivator talked endlessly, from the origins of the Dao Assembly to the top forces participating, and then to the exciting duels of past sessions...
Chen Sheng listened quietly, occasionally nodding in response, his understanding of the Three Extres Dao Assembly becoming increasingly clear.
At this mont, the Void Runes in the teleportation array suddenly lit up, and dense spatial spiritual power began to surge.
The old cultivator coughed and stopped:
"Alright, the teleportation is about to begin."
"Know your opponent; if you plan to compete, you must understand the popular contestants of this session. I have a fairly detailed piece of intelligence here, only ten Dao Crystals."
Chen Sheng: "..."
