Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant Chapter 2463: 223: Reforging (Part 3)
Previously on Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant...
His body's exterior adopted the distinctive ashen shade typical of ancient trees, forming an elliptical outline, as though evolving into a domain.
Unlike the previous Little Cang World, this domain was considerably smaller, persistently undulating.
Myriad tiny apertures emerged across its surface, drawing in the nearby Chaos Origin Substance with ferocious intensity, creating what looked like swirling vortices.
As this unfolded, the diverse laws inherent to the Ancient Cyan Sky Wood manifested, expanded, and intensified… leaving Wang Ba's heart pounding in awe!
He had encountered ruined domains before and had meticulously organized domain laws himself, aiding the Little Cang World in surpassing its boundaries.
Observing a domain arise from utter void now provided him with a fresh perspective on laws.
The insights he gained from the Perfume Sea companionship and ascending Sumeru in the Eastern Glazed Buddha Realm at last linked together in this instant.
No one else beheld this scene, yet within Wang Ba’s Primordial Spirit's Dao Domain, the fundamental laws radiated outward like a vast tree's canopy blooming, nearly enveloping every root beneath… The Dao Domain appeared increasingly unable to hide its core laws.
Witnessing the Canlong Realm on the verge of emergence, True Man Gai prompted:
“The moment has arrived, Taoist Friend Chao.”
Without hesitation, Heavenly Monarch Chao expelled a stream of Primordial Spirit Essence Blood, which rushed into the pulsating Canlong Realm.
The laws deriving from the Ancient Cyan Sky Wood differed from the Canlong Realm's original laws, potentially ill-suited for Beast Control, whereas the primary strength of Canlong Realm rested in its facilitation of breeding, thriving, and advancing for countless Spirit Beasts and Divine Beasts, shaped by its domain laws.
By refining the Canlong Realm, Heavenly Monarch Chao gained command over the Realm Spirit and proceeded to alter the Canlong Realm according to his desires.
This rudimentary small domain of laws proved straightforward to tweak and revise, rendering Heavenly Monarch Chao’s adjustments relatively straightforward.
Within a little more than a year, the overhaul of Canlong Realm’s laws reached completion.
Although rough around the edges with certain inconsistencies, the basic structure stood firm; with diligent care and future advancements, the Canlong Realm could one day reclaim its past splendor.
Upon the triumphant rebirth of Canlong Realm, True Man Gai extended brief felicitations but departed swiftly, wary of Bai Lechan’s impending breakthrough, after depositing various elixirs and artifacts that might prove useful to Canlong Realm.
With True Man Gai's exit, Heavenly Monarch Chao turned his hand over and tossed the Silkworm Dragon Staff toward Wang Ba:
“Here, it's yours now.”
Stunned, Wang Ba questioned hesitantly:
“Master Chao, why not retain the Silkworm Dragon Staff within Canlong Realm?”
Heavenly Monarch Chao responded offhandedly:
“It brought rise, yet it caused the fall; relying on a Dao Treasure for a realm's fate is folly. In the past, choices were limited, but with Canlong Realm reborn, repeating that error is unthinkable. Besides, since Tianshang Buddha Lord is aware of the Silkworm Dragon Staff, Canlong Realm could never hold onto it. Better to downplay it as a common item than draw eyes… You hold it for now; your need is greater than mine.”
Wang Ba paused briefly but accepted without protest, storing it securely.
Subsequently, he soared alongside Heavenly Monarch Chao into the freshly forged Canlong Realm.
Inside this newly formed domain, the era of genesis had just begun, demanding extensive development.
At its heart lay a segment of Chaotic Ancient Land, where the influx of external Chaos Origin Substance and the primal Power of Creation from heaven and earth's inception rapidly birthed flora, fauna, aquatic life, avian species, and myriad beings one after another…
“We’re short on hands.”
Heavenly Monarch Chao remarked with a touch of nostalgia.
Wang Ba acted without delay, dispatching communications to Yin Tianzhi, Tao Bingji, and their companions in Zhang’s Ruins.
In the Yunhuo Realm of Tao Bingji's origins, plenty of cultivators and common folk remained; relocating some to dispatch to Canlong Realm was feasible.
Wang Ba pressed on:
“Should we ever access the Sea of Chaos Realm, we could transfer folks there too.”
Heavenly Monarch Chao nodded affirmatively, then surveyed the domain, his brow creasing faintly:
“The internal laws of the realm still harbor flaws; further refinements are necessary…”
Turning to Wang Ba with gravity, he continued:
“Regarding the Ten Thousand Beasts Unbridled Technique, seize this opportunity to consult me, lest my future ascension leave you to unravel it alone.”
His demeanor grew grave, tone earnest as he added:
“Buddha Tianyin has perished; the Three Great Realms no longer endanger the Supreme True Buddha. Should Tianshang Buddha Lord regain strength, their return remains unpredictable. Your power suffices to overpower Crossing Tribulation experts, yet it pales against Mahayana foes.”
“Opening Duanhai Cliff is another pursuit. Securing your personal supremacy demands priority.”
“Upon reflection, your path forward lies in harnessing the Ten Thousand Beasts Unbridled Technique to swiftly nurture a Ninth-Tier Divine Beast. Even a fleeting Ninth-Tier might lack combat prowess, but it could safeguard your survival.”
Tianshang Buddha Lord was undeniably powerful, yet a resolute Mahayana Cultivator bent on flight could elude even him. Thus, Mahayana Cultivators rarely met demise in the Realm Sea. Buddha Tianyin's fate was anomalous, as Tianshang Buddha Lord struck him down inside the Eastern Luli Buddha Realm. In such peril, yielding meant the whole Eastern Luli Buddha Realm's doom alongside him.
Wang Ba found himself in accord with this assessment.
Yet a crucial challenge arose.
Merging a Ninth-Tier Divine Beast via the Ten Thousand Beasts Unbridled Technique, even briefly, necessitated an Eighth-Tier late-stage Divine Beast as the core, something he utterly lacked.
Nevertheless, in that instant, an idea flashed through his thoughts, directing him toward a particular location.
