Chapter 1943
1943 Daoist Progenitor Sacrifices Himself To Mend the Dao, It’s A Long Journey Ahead, Farewell, Daoist Progenitor
Hanba Tribe Leader retracted his power and looked at Drought Maiden’s confused expression. The rest of the Jiangshis were also on guard, afraid that she might suddenly go mad.
However, Chu Kuangren observed her quietly with an indifferent expression.
Just a moment ago, he contacted Heavenly Sword Chu Kuangren and sought his help to get Lil Ai to analyze the Four Blood Supreme Pill to save the Drought Maiden. Although Lil Ai had not seen the Four Blood Supreme Pill herself, she could deduce its properties based on the information provided by Chu Kuangren.
The Supreme Pill could indeed drive one mad, but that would only happen when one absorbed the excessive berserk Yin qi contained in the pill.
Jiangshis were the evilest creatures, and their blood essence was the epitome of Yin.
Although the Four Blood Supreme Pill, refined from countless Jiangshis’ blood, had the Drought Demon True Flame suppressing its Yin qi, when the True Flame merged with the supreme pill to a certain extent, the Yin qi would devour the user’s rationality and enslave him, like the Jiangchen Tribe Leader who transformed into the Hou Beast.
However, the Jiangchen Tribe Leader had absorbed most of the berserk Yin qi contained in the Four Blood Supreme Pill that Chu Kuangren obtained.
He was akin to a filter that filtered out the berserk Yin qi in the Four Blood Supreme Pill.
Although most of the power within the pill had been consumed, the current Supreme Pill had no side effects!
Color soon returned to the Drought Maiden’s pale face, and her vitality rose steadily.
Everyone kept their eyes on her.
A while later, the Drought Maiden’s aura gradually stabilized, and she showed no sign of going mad. Everyone instantly felt a weight lifted off their chests.
“Drought Maiden, how do you feel now?” asked the Hanba Tribe Leader.
“I feel great, better than ever before.” Drought Maiden was amazed when she sensed the surging energy in her body.
Then, she looked at Chu Kuangren with admiration. “Thank you, Immortal King. I knew you couldn’t bear to watch me die.”
The corner of Chu Kuangren’s mouth twitched.
‘What a narcissistic Drought Maiden.’
However, he did not take it to heart as the Four Blood Supreme Pill was useless to him, and giving it to Drought Maiden could exchange him a favor.
“Thank you, Immortal King.”
Hanba Tribe Leader also expressed his gratitude.
He was surprised that the Jiangshi clan did not know the specific function and effect of the Four Blood Supreme Pill, which was a taboo of the Jiangshi clan, yet Chu Kuangren was confident it could save the Drought Maiden.
Could it be that the man’s research on Jiangshis surpassed theirs?
“How can you be so sure that Drought Maiden won’t go mad, Immortal King?” The Hanba Tribe Leader could not help but ask.
Then, Chu Kuangren explained the situation to him briefly.
“So does it mean Drought Maiden has profited from the tragedy? Not only has her power risen to the next level, but she has also gained some of the Hou Beast’s energy!” the Hanba Tribe Leader said in amazement.
“That’s right.” Chu Kuangren nodded.
Many Jiangshis looked at the Drought Maiden with envy, while some others from the Jiangchen Tribe felt sad.
The Supreme Pill that they painstakingly refined had been taken away, and their Tribe Leader had become a tool that helped to filter out the Yin qi in the pill.
The Drought Maiden really got lucky this time.
“Perhaps we had it coming,” a Jiangchen Tribe Jiangshi lamented.
After that battle, the status of the Jiangchen Tribe in the Jiangshi Restricted Area dropped even lower. Although the mastermind was the Jiangchen Tribe Leader, as his slaves, they would be affected as well.
Chu Kuangren did not bother himself with how Hanba Tribe Leader and others would deal with the Jiangchen Tribe because his trip here was mainly to resolve the Dao contamination qi. Since the issue had been resolved, he could leave anytime soon.
After staying for a few more days, Chu Kuangren left the Jiangshi Restricted Area under the reluctant gaze of the Drought Maiden.
“Apart from the Dao contamination qi that had somehow disappeared, other matters are pretty much settled.”
“Now, should I make a trip to the Void Battlefield?” Chu Kuangren thought to himself.
Then, he suddenly sensed something and looked puzzledly toward a certain direction in the universe.
…
Somewhere in the Chaos, an elder in a purple Daoist robe surrounded by mysterious Daoist Rhyme emerged.
He was the Daoist Progenitor.
As he looked into the void, he saw three figures fighting against each other and emitting terrifying bursts of power that shattered the Deep Void!
Various dazzling Daos interweaved, and each Dao had reached a level so powerful that it surpassed what ordinary Embodiers could achieve.
As those Daos converged with each other, an immensely astonishing power erupted. It was a battle at the level of Chaos!
“Brother Wu Han is almost at his limit,” the Daoist Progenitor mumbled.
Then, he looked at the starry sky and took a deep breath. “It’s time to settle this matter.”
“In the past, I used your power to repel the invaders, but it also injured you, and you have yet to recover until this day.
“Now, let me cure you.”
Then, he soared into the sky, releasing billions of Immortal Sparks, and countless mysterious ancient runes surrounded him.
The radiance released by the Daoist Progenitor not only illuminated the cold, dark universe but also seemed to shine upon the past and future.
As a mysterious energy fluctuation spread from him, all the elites in the universe sensed it.
“It’s the Daoist Progenitor!”
“What is he doing?”
Stunned, everyone sent their Immortal Consciousnesses out to find out what happened.
That was when they saw the holy and dazzling Daoist Progenitor enveloped in Immortal Sparks and surrounded by runes. Then, bursts of Daoist chimes spread from him and resounded throughout the universe.
Before the crowd could figure out what the Daoist Progenitor was doing, the Great Dao’s vital force suddenly emerged in the universe and surged from all directions. Soon, the force enveloped the Daoist Progenitor and gradually turned him into nothing.
Was the Great Dao’s vital force devouring the Daoist Progenitor?
No! Wait a minute!
It was the Daoist Progenitor who was merging himself with the Great Dao’s vital force.
Some elites made the guess, and Chu Kuangren also noticed the scene.
His previous conversation with the Daoist Progenitor constantly replayed in his mind, and he finally understood where the strange feeling was.
It turned out that the Daoist Progenitor was making some arrangements for his death.
At that moment, the Daoist Progenitor’s gaze seemed to traverse countless starry skies and met Chu Kuangren’s gaze. He smiled faintly and said, “Brother, I’ll leave the remaining matters to you. It’s a long journey ahead, and I’m sorry I can’t accompany you.”
As soon as he said those words, his figure began to dissipate.
Once he disappeared, the entire universe trembled, and some Embodier elites could sense the changes in the Great Universal Dao.
The initially flawed Great Dao… was perfect now!
“It’s perfected. The Great Dao, which has been flawed flaws since the great calamity in the ancient Immortal times, is now perfected!”
“The Great Dao energy has been restored. We no longer have to worry about it bringing calamity in order to regain its strength.”
“It’s the Daoist Progenitor. The Daoist Progenitor must have done this!”
“The Great Dao perfected itself after the Daoist Progenitor disappeared. He must’ve used his power to make up the flaws in the Great Dao!”
Somewhere in the universe, Chu Kuangren stood in the air with mixed feelings. Then, he bowed in the direction of the Daoist Progenitor’s last location. “Farewell, Daoist Progenitor!”
