77: Three Thousand Avenues

Time flew by, and a month had passed in a flash. The Xu Family's strength, as Xu Qing had anticipated, saw an emergence of many powerful individuals.

Currently, the Hall Masters of each hall and the Branch Leaders of each branch are all powerhouses above the Sealed Venerable.

[Host: Xu Qing]

[Age: Seventeen]

[Identity: Young Master of the Xu Family]

[Cultivation: Tian Zun Consummate]

[Aptitude: Eternal]

[Physique: Chaos Dao Body]

[Luck: Golden]

[Force: Heavenly Venerable Family]

[Family Luck Spirit: Three-Clawed Golden Dragon (2800 zhang)]

[Talents: Investment Return, Plunder Luck, Heavenly Secret Obscuration, Heavenly Venerable Pressure!]

After utilizing his cultivation, Xu Qing himself broke through to Profound Venerable Perfection. Within this month, he comprehended the rules of Five Elements and Myriad Thunder to Perfection, and imprinted his rule mark upon the Heavenly Dao rules, thus successfully breaking through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

Under the accumulation of various Heaven And Earth Treasure, he quickly broke through to the Tian Zun Consummate Realm.

For Xu Qing, breaking through the Venerable Realm posed no difficulty. As long as resources were sufficient, he could continuously accumulate power until Divine Venerable Perfection. What he lacked was only comprehension of the rules.

What he currently lacks is to perfect three rules, and use the power of these three rules to break through to the Divine Venerable Realm.

However, these three rules are not simply about comprehending any three rules. The three rules comprehended must have one primary rule and two secondary rules.

There are three thousand Great Daos, but three thousand is merely a symbolic number; the Dao does not truly have three thousand paths, and there are strengths and weaknesses between Daos!

The foremost are the Four Supreme Daos: Chaos, Space-Time, Grandmist, and Annihilation.

Below them are the Ten Supreme Daos: Strength, Time, Space, Fate, Reincarnation, Karma, Life and Death, Destruction, Yin and Yang, and Five Elements.

Further down, they are divided into Upper, Middle, and Lower ranks.

Upper-tier Great Daos, such as Soul, Light, Stars, Immortal Dao, Devouring, Ruthless Dao, Sword Dao, etc., number around three hundred!

Middle-tier Daos include Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, etc., numbering around three thousand.

Lower-tier Daos are branches of Middle-tier Daos like Lightning, Blazing Fire, and Cutting. As for how many types there are, no one knows.

The Universe is vast, and the Dao laws are naturally endless!

The strength of the Dao is also reflected in the Martial Artist. Different Daos comprehended by a Martial Artist result in a disparity in strength!

Without exaggeration, a Martial Artist who masters one of the Ten Supreme Daos, even if it's only one Dao, can still crush a Supreme who has mastered several Upper-tier Daos. Otherwise, how could they be called Supreme Daos!

Currently, the simplest path for Xu Qing to break through would be the Dao of Thunder.

He has comprehended the Myriad Thunder rule, and only needs to comprehend two more lightning rules, making the Myriad Thunder rule primary, to construct a powerful Heavenly Venerable Domain.

Although the Dao of Thunder is one of the three hundred Upper-tier Daos, Xu Qing is not satisfied. After all, he has already comprehended two Supreme Daos, so how could he be content with an Upper-tier Dao?

He, Xu Qing, possesses the Chaos Dao Body, Cultivates the Chaos Sutra, and wields the Great Chaos Technique. If he cannot comprehend the Chaos rule, then he would rather not break through.

[Ding! Detecting a significant increase in the Xu Family's strength, triggering a System mission!]

[Ding! The Mystic Ancient Divine Hall has been destroyed. Please send out powerhouses, unify the Profound Ancient Thirty-Six Domains, and have the powerhouses from each Domain come to the Xu Family to pay tribute!]

[Mission Rewards: One Tian Zun Consummate Cultivation, Ten Profound Venerable Consummate Cultivations, Fifty Sealed Venerable Consummate Cultivations, One Hundred Tian Wang Consummate Cultivations!]

[One Heavenly Venerable Identity Card, Ten Profound Venerable Identity Cards, One Hundred Sealed Venerable Identity Cards, One Thousand Heavenly King Realm Identity Cards, One Family Battle Tower!]

"Since that's the case, it's time for my Xu Family to emerge! The map confiscated from the Mystic Ancient Divine Hall will come in handy!"

Xu Qing said softly.

Outside. East of Xuan Gu Holy City, a ten-thousand-zhang mountain peak!

"Rumble!"

The heavens and earth suddenly changed color, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and an invisible vortex suddenly appeared in the Void Realm. A terrifying aura erupted from within the vortex.

That terrifying pressure, spanning tens of thousands of miles across the sky, attracted the attention of many powerhouses.

It was at this moment that an ancient and magnificent mountain range slowly drifted out from within the vortex, pressing down upon the summit of the ten-thousand-zhang mountain peak.

This mountain range was incomparably vast, like a giant Dragon, with its head and tail connected, nine peaks standing tall, and a hundred peaks surrounding it, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.

The surface of the mountain range was covered with a faint layer of clouds and mist. Under the sunlight, nine-colored divine light shimmered within the clouds, like a mysterious immortal mountain, inspiring awe in those who beheld it.

The appearance of the mountain range caused the entire world to tremble.

And that colossal Heavenly Gate, cutting through eternity, made all the powerhouses' hearts tremble. They felt an irresistible force.

"It's the Xu Family, they've appeared!"

Although a month had passed, seeing the Xu Family's Cloud Mist Mountain again still caused everyone to tremble. After all, the once immensely powerful Mystic Ancient Divine Hall was annihilated by the Xu Family, making them the uncrowned kings of the Profound Ancient Thirty-Six Domains.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Twenty figures walked out from the South Heaven Gate, each exuding a terrifying aura.

"Hiss!"

"Venerables! They are all Venerables!"

"Is this the Xu Family's foundation? I thought that the forces dispatched that day were the Xu Family's entire strength, but I didn't expect..."

Remotely gazing at these twenty terrifying figures, the surrounding Martial Artists all changed color and felt a chill down their spines.

These people were all Venerables, especially the first three, each exuding the aura of Sealed Venerable Perfection.

Such terrifying strength, this is the Xu Family!

Fortunately, during the month the Xu Family disappeared, they did not make any private moves, otherwise, the current force alone would be enough to sweep across the entire Profound Ancient Thirty-Six Domains.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

These twenty terrifying figures quickly vanished into the Void Realm, leaving behind only the mysterious, ancient mountain range pressing down there.

The disappearance of these individuals caused panic among the surrounding Martial Artists, who quickly sent messages back to their respective factions.

From then on, the news of the Xu Family's reappearance and the disappearance of twenty Venerables spread throughout the Xuangu Domain at an extremely fast pace, shocking the major forces of the Xuangu Domain and causing a wave of panic.

However, a message soon spread, explaining the reason for the Venerables' departure.

It turned out that the Xu Family was preparing to invite all powerhouses above the Heavenly King Realm from the Profound Ancient Thirty-Six Domains to attend the Xuanhuang Immortal Assembly prepared by the Xu Family.

Besides a banquet, this Xuanhuang Immortal Assembly also included a trading fair, where various forces could bring out treasures to exchange for their desired items.

Furthermore, the Xu Family guaranteed that within the Profound Antiquity Province, if anyone dared to intercept the treasures traded at the assembly, they would be pursued by the Xu Family's powerhouses, ensuring the safety of the participants.

As the hosts, the Xu Family would also bring out various Heaven And Earth Treasure, and at this assembly, the Xu Family would offer a Thousand Longevity Pill for trade.

As soon as the news broke, it alarmed many old monsters.

The Thousand Longevity Pill is a top-tier Profound Venerable Medicinal Pill that can increase the Lifespan of a Venerable Realm mighty figure by at least a thousand years. If it's of excellent quality, it can even add three thousand years.

One must know that even Venerables, mighty figures of the Venerable Realm, have a Lifespan of ten thousand years. Ordinary Hundred Longevity Pills are already useless to them; only Medicinal Pills like the Thousand Longevity Pill can have an effect on them.

It's just unknown what quality of Thousand Longevity Pill the Xu Family has prepared this time.

But no matter what, for those old monsters whose Lifespan was nearing its end, this would be an Opportunity. Therefore, they all issued decrees, instructing their subordinate forces to collect treasures.

The stronger a powerhouse is, the more they fear death. The ultimate goal of most people's Cultivation is to achieve Eternal life.

Even the most ordinary Thousand Longevity Pill can allow them to live for a thousand years. A thousand years is enough time to change many things, and if they encounter an Opportunity, there is a possibility of further Breakthrough.

So these old monsters emerged from seclusion, quietly awaiting the Xuanhuang Immortal Assembly a month later.
