144: Proving the Dao, Primordial Great Luo

Though his words were bold, Qing Wu did not show the slightest bit of carelessness.

After all, attaining the Dao of Primordial Chaos Great Golden Immortal within the Great Desolation was a first since the creation of heaven and earth.

Although they had previously traveled throughout the Great Desolation to comprehend the changes in the Laws of Heaven and Earth, and should now be able to easily master various Laws...

...the closer one gets to success, the less one can afford to be careless.

The two looked at each other and nodded. As their dao rhymes spread and intertwined in green and red, they achieved a communion of hearts and minds.

Immediately after, the auras around them gradually merged, transforming into a brilliant Hunyuan Divine Light that shot straight into the ninth heaven.

A phantom of a sky-propping Wutong tree manifested, with numerous Dao Principles flowing between its branches and leaves. Each leaf reflected the birth and death of a world.

Behind Yuan Feng, the Nanmingli Fire churned like a sea of crimson clouds. A Phoenix phantom let out a long cry, and the True Intent of Nirvana, having undergone countless transformations, burst forth from its feathers.

The auras of both individuals climbed to their peak in an instant; the process of attaining the Dao had begun.

Seeing this, Hongjun flicked his sleeve, and the creation jade plate suspended itself above their heads, shedding billions of rays of brilliant immortal light that enveloped the entire world.

In an instant, the heavenly secrets were muddled and Karma became obscured; no one could spy on the changes occurring within.

Hongjun's gaze shifted between the two, a hint of amazement in the depths of his eyes.

It wasn't because he was witnessing this attainment of the Hunyuan Dao.

After all, they had already received the recognition of the Heavenly Dao, and success was practically set in stone.

What truly caught Hongjun's attention was the sight of their attainment, so natural and complementary to each other.

The auras of Qing Wu and Yuan Feng merged so naturally, as if they were one at the dawn of time; now, they were merely returning to their Origin and evolving once more.

The intertwined green and red dao rhymes flowed through the Void Realm without the slightest bit of friction.

Qing Wu's Wood Origin transformed into thousands of threads of Dao Principles, each one precisely entwining with Yuan Feng's True Intent of Nirvana.

And the Nanmingli Fire, bolstered by the True Intent of Nirvana, did not burn these Dao Principles; instead, it nourished them like spring rain.

Hongjun saw clearly that this was no simple fusion of magical power, but a true resonance of the Great Dao.

The fluctuations of their true spirits actually maintained a perfect synchronization.

Whenever the Qing Wu tree phantom above Qing Wu's head trembled, the Phoenix phantom behind Yuan Feng would surely flap its wings in response.

When the True Intent of Nirvana burst from Yuan Feng's feathers, the Dao Principles among Wutong's branches and leaves would flow accordingly.

This level of unspoken understanding had transcended the scope of mere technique coordination; it was more like two Innate Great Daos naturally echoing each other.

Amidst the immortal light shed by the creation jade plate, the Dao Fruits of the two were slowly taking shape.

There was no Heavenly Tribulation to obstruct them, no Heart Demon to cause trouble, and not even the slightest repulsion between Laws appeared.

It could be described as—success coming naturally.

Furthermore, a wisp of purple gas circled around them; it was precisely the Primordial Violet Qi.

Hongjun thought to himself, "As expected, it turns out the Heavenly Dao has already granted them the Primordial Violet Qi."

As the Dao Ancestor who pioneered the path of the Quasi-Saint, Hongjun was naturally more than familiar with this Primordial Violet Qi.

In fact, he held seven wisps of Primordial Violet Qi in his own hands.

The Primordial Violet Qi was not just the foundation for becoming a Saint; it symbolized a form of recognition from the Heavenly Dao.

Yet, such recognition seemed to have no place to exert its influence at this moment, only able to drift on the periphery of their attainment.

Serving only to prevent an accident that likely didn't have even a sliver of a chance of happening.

Although their process of attaining the Dao had been concealed by Hongjun using the methods of a Saint...

...this world was so closely connected to them that wisps of Hunyuan aura still leaked out, like spring wind turning into rain, silently soaking into the land.

From the originally silent volcanic crater, rosy light suddenly erupted, and the spiritual energy of the earth veins surged like a tide.

The magma was no longer violent, instead transforming into crimson-gold spiritual liquid. As it flowed, it actually birthed many fire lotuses; the hearts of these lotuses contained the True Intent of Nirvana, available for all living beings to comprehend.

The vegetation on the mountain, nourished by the Hunyuan aura, underwent transformations one after another. Individual Acquired Spiritual Roots even showed signs of returning to their Innate state.

Jin Feng and Qing Luan suddenly felt the Bloodlines within their bodies boiling. They raised their hands to look; the intertwined green and red patterns upon them caused their Bloodlines to ascend to a higher level.

Ling Ling, who was in seclusion, suddenly felt a wave of clarity in her mind. Laws that were previously obscure and difficult to grasp were now understood as naturally as water flowing into a channel.

Tiangu was lying on the ground, letting out a lazy yawn, when he suddenly caught the scent of his master's aura.

He dashed off in a flash, wanting to experience it from a closer distance.

Although only a small amount of Hunyuan aura had leaked out, it had already brought immense benefits to the living beings of the Immortal Volcano.

Plants and creatures gained intelligence, Cultivators experienced Epiphanies and broke through their Realms, and even the mountain rocks faintly shimmered with spiritual light.

Throughout the Immortal Volcano, everyone received the lingering charm of the Dao attainment, a long-lasting blessing.

It could be said—when two people attain the Dao, even their pets ascend to heaven... The attainment had reached its conclusion; the Dao Fruits appeared, and the Primordial Chaos Great Golden Immortal Realm was achieved.

At this moment, the boiling Hunyuan aura around the two suddenly receded like a tide.

The brilliant divine light that had illuminated the world was now entirely withdrawn, with not a single bit leaking out.

The two stood quietly in the Void Realm, their auras as peaceful as those of mortals.

Qing Wu's green robes were simple and clean, with no more Dao Principles flowing through his sleeves.

The sky-propping Wutong tree phantom had vanished without a trace, leaving only a pair of eyes as deep as an abyss, with an occasional flash of chaotic green light.

Beside him, Yuan Feng was the same; the Nanmingli Fire that had scorched the Void Realm was completely drawn back into her body, and her crimson feathered robes appeared even more pure and flawless.

But when her gaze shifted, it seemed as if thousands of worlds were undergoing Nirvana and Rebirth in her eyes. Occasionally, as a strand of hair lifted, it would leave a faint Dao trace in the Void Realm.

Their state of returning to simplicity had transcended the level of "restrained pressure," truly reaching the Realm of "Dao follows nature."

Standing there, they were the embodiment of the Great Dao.

The attainment ended, and the seal enveloping this world was immediately lifted.

Many living beings drew closer to them; they had truly felt the aura dissipated during the attainment just now, and each had gained something from it.

"Our thanks for the Dao Venerable's blessing!"

The many creatures shouted in unison, the title of "Dao Venerable" echoing continuously.

Seeing this, the expression of the "Dao Ancestor" nearby changed slightly.

"Does Fellow Daoist wish to be the Dao Venerable of all living beings in the Great Desolation?"

"Since the two of you have now attained the Dao of Primordial Chaos Great Golden Immortal, in my humble opinion, the title of 'Dao Venerable' of the Great Desolation is not undeserved."

"If that is the case, I can..."

Hearing Hongjun speak more and more outrageously, seemingly intent on pushing them into the position of Dao Venerable, Qing Wu hurriedly stopped him.

"The Great Desolation has enough with a Dao Ancestor!"

Don't think he didn't know what this old Daoist was plotting again.

It was nothing more than wanting to use this title to make him shoulder more responsibilities.

Although he would do what needed to be done for their common goal...

...if he were saddled with such a hollow title, it would ultimately feel a bit like being kidnapped...
