940: Using the Chaos Treasure Bottle to carry the Dao Fruit
“Father…”
Upon seeing Gu Qing, Gu Nian felt a chill throughout her body. The Gu Qing sitting on the Great Dao Golden Lotus had no human aura whatsoever, resembling a supreme Great Dao origin.
“You shouldn’t have come.” Gu Qing opened his eyes, a flicker of emotion appearing in them before quickly turning to indifference.
“Father, you’ve already assimilated with the Dao, how could I not come?”
Gu Nian’s voice was choked with sobs. She wanted to enter the Great Dao Golden Lotus to embrace Gu Qing, but she was blocked by Gu Qing’s Great Dao laws.
“You can’t help me. Go back.”
Gu Qing looked at her, yet no emotion stirred within his heart, as if he were facing a stranger. Gu Nian was no different from the countless living beings.
“Father is so powerful, he should be able to dissolve the Dao Ancestor Dao Fruit, right? Mother and the aunties are constantly hoping for your return.”
Gu Nian bit her red lip, trying to awaken the seven emotions and six desires within Gu Qing’s heart.
After all, Gu Qing loved them so much. Compared to Starry Sacred Mother and his many women, their three sisters were more like an unexpected blessing.
“They…”
Gu Qing’s voice paused, and his calm heart rippled, his eyes glowing with emotion.
Turning to look at Youmeng beside him, Gu Qing seemed lost in thought.
Gu Qing remembered why he became a Dao Ancestor.
When he was a Ninefold Perfected Dao Master, Gu Qing had already awakened from his enlightenment, but he still decisively and resolutely stepped into the Dao Ancestor realm.
Gu Qing had already deduced that Chaos had Netherworld Forces. Under the Limitless Netherworld Force, all living beings below the Dao Ancestor realm would be annihilated by the Netherworld Force.
Even Dao Ancestors faced the risk of falling.
Furthermore, if he didn’t become a Dao Ancestor, he would lose Youmeng, Zhi Meng, and Jiang Yu.
As he thought, boundless Dao rhyme surged into his mind, almost drowning his rationality, turning him into an emotionless Great Dao puppet.
Gu Qing didn’t have time to think further. He immediately used his backup plan, forming hand seals, and a Limitless Netherworld Force aura emanated from his body.
This was a backup plan he had prepared before his breakthrough, refining a Netherworld Force seed that had been absorbing the power of his Dao Fruit to grow.
Even if Gu Nian hadn’t come to him, the Netherworld Force seed would have erupted at Gu Qing’s predetermined time, eroding his Dao Fruit and awakening him from his emotionless and desireless state.
Of course, Gu Qing refining the Netherworld Force seed was not for suicide. The Netherworld Force seed was merely to awaken his rationality.
Once rationality returned, Gu Qing had his own methods to save himself. This was also the confidence he had to dare to break through to the Dao Ancestor realm.
“Netherworld… Netherworld Force…” Gu Nian retreated frantically, her expression filled with shock.
Netherworld Force was an existence that could annihilate Great Dao laws, and it was a catastrophe for all living beings. If she were to touch even a trace of it, she would instantly disintegrate and her Dao would vanish.
After all, Netherworld Force was the power of all destruction, and Gu Nian had once entered the Limitless Secret Realm to comprehend it.
She had even gained an initial understanding, but she dared not go further.
Because the deeper she understood, the faster she would die. Netherworld Force did not distinguish between friend and foe; it destroyed everything.
However, Gu Qing actually controlled Netherworld Force, which almost overturned her understanding.
Perhaps this was what the Old Scoundrel had called “special.”
Gu Qing mastering Netherworld Force, wasn’t he the only Variable?
Thinking of this, Gu Nian was overjoyed, her excitement evident.
Originally, she had intended to use herself as a vessel to refine Gu Qing’s Dao Fruit. After all, she was Gu Qing’s bloodline and could perfectly bear his Dao.
Then, she would extract a wisp of Gu Qing’s true spirit, allowing Gu Qing to reincarnate and reunite with her mother and the aunties.
One person’s sacrifice for the happiness of the entire family.
Buzz!
Gu Qing seemed to be enveloped by an illusory yet real bottle, melting his own being.
This was the Chaotic Treasure Bottle.
Having been refined by Gu Qing until now, it had already grown into a half-step Chaotic Supreme Treasure.
It was perfectly suited to seal and carry his Chaos Unmeasurable Dao Fruit.
Moreover, the Chaotic Treasure Bottle, having absorbed his Dao Fruit, would definitely grow into a true Chaotic Supreme Treasure, possessing infinite growth potential.
Everything happened as Gu Qing had deduced. The Chaotic Treasure Bottle devoured his Dao Fruit, and since the Chaotic Treasure Bottle was his destined Supreme Treasure, he could use the Dao Ancestor’s power at will.
“It’s done!”
Gu Qing was overjoyed, his spirits soaring, his face beaming with delight.
“Father, boo hoo hoo…”
Seeing this, Gu Nian threw herself into her father’s arms and burst into tears.
She had suffered too much over the years, bearing everyone’s hopes.
Every time she saw Starry Sacred Mother’s anxious and sorrowful expression, her heart was torn.
Now, she finally didn’t have to bear the pressure she was supposed to. She could live freely.
Gu Qing gently stroked her back, knowing that his daughter had indeed suffered over the years, enduring too much pressure.
After Gu Nian had cried enough, Gu Qing pushed her away. Looking at his soaked clothes, Gu Qing’s face showed a hint of disdain.
“Ugh, you’re a big girl now, still crying and sniffling? Aren’t you ashamed? Go away, go away.”
Gu Nian’s eyelashes still held glistening tears. She looked at her father with confusion, as if asking why he pushed her away.
But upon hearing Gu Qing’s words, her eyes went blank for a moment, then she angrily pounded her father.
“Father, you’re annoying, so annoying! I don’t want you to be my father anymore…”
She was truly furious.
How could there be such a scoundrel of a father in the world?
She had suffered such great grievances; couldn’t he let her cry for a bit? Couldn’t he let her indulge just once?
Gu Nian suddenly wanted to switch fathers, to switch to a father who doted on his daughter.
“You’re turning the tables on me…” Gu Qing kneaded her small face with both hands, playing for a while.
Seeing her emotions stabilize, Gu Qing smiled, “Nian’er, not bad! You actually broke through to half-step Dao Ancestor.”
“Hmph, do you even need to say that? If not for the Great Dao’s indifference, I would have already broken through to Dao Ancestor.” Gu Nian snorted, turning her head away, with an expression of “I’m angry, come and coax me.”
She wasn’t boasting.
Half-step Dao Ancestor was merely the result of her suppression. If she hadn’t suppressed it, she would have already grown into a true Dao Ancestor.
“Do you want me to help you lower your cultivation level?”
Even a half-step Dao Ancestor was still a Dao Ancestor. That boundless and immense Dao power was already affecting Gu Nian’s mind.
“Hmph, whatever you want.” Gu Nian’s heart secretly rejoiced, but on the surface, she still feigned reluctance, not wanting Gu Qing to look down on her.
Seeing her proud and aloof demeanor, Gu Qing wanted to tease her more, but he still had things to do, so he had to give up. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future to make Gu Nian understand that her father was still her father.
Gu Qing pointed at her glabella, a ray of light bursting from his fingertip, knocking her down from the half-step Dao Ancestor realm to the Ninefold Perfected realm.
And he sealed Gu Nian’s origin.
Because Gu Nian’s origin was too heaven-defying. It would naturally evolve, and even without cultivation, one day her Dao Fruit would evolve into a Dao Ancestor Dao Fruit.
“Go back quickly. Tell them I’m fine and not to worry. I’ll be back very soon.” Gu Qing waved his hand.
“Oh!”
Gu Nian glanced at Youmeng beside her and reluctantly said, “Then come back quickly. We’re all waiting for you.”
“Mm!”
After Gu Nian left, Gu Qing used his Dao Pupil to check Youmeng’s condition. After a moment of contemplation, Gu Qing reached out and stroked her, awakening her rationality.
