Above the Great Dao

Chapter 1218 567: Twin Male and Female Fiends (Part 2)

He felt the grandeur of the True God and the ethereal nature of the Immortal Dao, summoning the Immortal Dao aura within him!

"Am I sensing the Earth Immortal Realm?"

Chen Shi suddenly felt his body becoming lighter and hastily opened his eyes, only to see a splash of rosy clouds above him, descending upon him from an unknown origin.

Within the rosy clouds came a guiding force, resonating with the Immortal Dao within him, seeming to lead him to another world!

"Ascension rosy clouds!"

Chen Shi had seen such rosy clouds, in Jueyangzi's minor world, there was similar ascension rosy clouds, but because Jueyangzi ascended with Evil Qi, he was slashed by a sword light from the Earth Immortal Realm.

Zhong Wuwang also had rosy clouds come from another world to guide him before his ascension.

"I don't have a Harmonization minor world, nor a Void Great Realm. Why am I being guided by the Earth Immortal Realm?"

He was puzzled, then spirited up, "Doesn't this mean I can go to the Earth Immortal Realm and undergo Harmonization again?"

A hint of anticipation arose in his heart.

He ceased the Heavenly Human Sensing, and the ascension rosy clouds gradually faded away.

Chen Shi returned to the underworld and arrived outside Houde Palace, just about to enter when he suddenly felt something and looked up to the sky.

"What is Your Majesty looking at?" Lady Houtu's voice came.

Chen Shi withdrew his gaze and said, "It's nothing. Lady, I encountered something strange today."

He recounted his inability to sense the minor world due to not undergoing Harmonization, which even Lady Houtu had never encountered. After a cultivator undergoes Tribulation Crossing and Harmonization, they become an Immortal. If their minor world is destroyed, their realm would fall; this was common knowledge.

But Chen Shi's situation was rare in the world.

"It was probably because you relied on the Outer Heaven True God at the time, letting the Heaven and Earth Great Dao resonate with you, and when the Outer Heaven True God died, the power resonating with you dissipated, causing you to fall from the Golden Immortal realm," she guessed.

Chen Shi said, "Godmother's words make sense. However, this doesn't explain the Dao Pattern."

Lady Houtu was stumped and said, "The Dao Pattern forms the Great Dao Phenomenon in the Immortal Dao realm, like the Jade Court, the thirty-two Heavenly Children, all formed by Dao Patterns. The principles contained in Dao Patterns naturally transform into these Dao Images. Different Dao Images symbolizing each Dao Realm. However, the Divine Dao is different from the Immortal Dao, and I can't explain the changes in you. Since Your Majesty cannot sense the Void Great Realm or Harmonization, is it possible to open the Great Realm again and undergo Harmonization once more?"

Chen Shi recounted his plan to undergo Harmonization in the Earth Immortal Realm, and Lady Houtu smiled, "Indeed, it is a better choice. The Earth Immortal Realm is part of the Immortal Dao world, far better than the West Bull New Continent by many times."

She said this and then thought of the Qianyang Mountain Holy Land discovered by the Purple Heaven Vine, hesitating.

The Qianyang Mountain Holy Land contains Taiqing Purple Qi, so undergoing Harmonization at Qianyang Mountain might not be much worse than in the Earth Immortal Realm.

"However, the Earth Immortal Realm offers more choices and more Holy Lands for Harmonization. Perhaps you might find a better one," she silently thought.

Chen Shi glanced up at the sky again and followed Lady Houtu into Houde Palace.

Lady Houtu said, "The kind person we are visiting this time goes by the Daoist name Qian Yi, who is an Immortal in the Heavenly Immortal Realm."

Chen Shi asked, "What good deeds has Qianyi Taoist done?"

Lady Houtu said, "When he was still a mortal, he hadn't done many good deeds. But after his ascension, he committed to them significantly. Once ascended, he wanted to stand out in the Earth Immortal Realm, so he exploited his ancestral land, plundered Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and sent many old friends and family to the underworld for reincarnation. There are many complaints against him in the Lord of Mount Tai's office."

She glanced at Chen Shi, with a half-smile, "People, once they gain power, inevitably become greedy and forget what they once were. Isn't that right, Your Majesty?"

Chen Shi was stern and said, "I will remember Godmother's teachings."

Lady was very pleased and laughed, "You are now a True King and still introspective, which is rare. Qianyi Taoist grows Immortal Grass and Immortal Medicine, the best of which is called Langya Red Pearl, which is quite rare. He found this treasure in the Xuanhuang Sea by chance."

Laughing and chatting, the two entered Qianyi Taoist's minor world.

Lady was eager and said, "This time I'll do it, and Your Majesty will be on the lookout for me."

Chen Shi agreed. Before he finished speaking, Lady Houtu rushed out like a gust of wind, leaping into the air.

"Robbery!" she shouted loudly.

In Qianyi Taoist's minor world, thousands of cultivators were working, some were florists, and some were Qianyi Taoist's disciples. Hearing the shout, everyone looked toward the sound. Someone laughed, "Where did this crazy girl come from? Wearing a veil and causing trouble."

Everyone ignored her and continued with their own work.

Lady Houtu helplessly looked at Chen Shi, who cleared his throat, raised his hand, and endless dark clouds filled the sky, with Thunder roaring, darting back and forth through the clouds. Suddenly, a Thunderbolt struck down, smashing a Immortal Palace in the small world into pieces!

The cultivators in Qianyi's minor world were shocked, looking up into the sky.

"Robbery!"

Chen Shi's voice was like a bell, echoing throughout the minor world, "We, the male and female terrors, have never hurt or killed anyone. We only seek some wealth, and once we've taken it, we leave. But if you resist, the last one who dared to resist spent a long time being served by us, and his bones still hang on the tip of my knife!"

Lady Houtu understood, looked down, and smirked, "Don't blame him for being ruthless, if you fall into my hands, even after rebirth, I'll find you and kill you!"

The two slowly descended from the sky, landing beside the spirit field.

Lady Houtu kicked one of Qianyi Taoist's disciples, knocking him away, and shouted, "Get lost!"

Chen Shi lifted his palm, and countless Thunder in the sky crackled, converging into his five fingers, with Thunder dancing at his fingertips.

"Aren't you leaving? Planning a counter-robbery?" Chen Shi said with a gloomy face.

"Clatter!"

The cultivators inside and outside the fields scattered in panic, fleeing in panic.

Chen Shi was quite pleased and said, "Godmother, you could be a bit harsher next time."

Lady Houtu rubbed her calf and said, "I just kicked that person in arrogance, and I feel sorry for him. This leg has lost merit."

Chen Shi said, "I'll keep watch, and you go gather medicine, Godmother."

Lady Houtu immediately set aside the matter of lost merit, took out a flower hoe, bamboo basket, and other tools, and excitedly went to dig Immortal Grass.

Chen Shi stood in the field, constantly watching the surroundings.

Suddenly, a grand voice rang out: "What demon spirit dares to intrude into my Dao Realm and steal my treasures!"

Chen Shi felt a jolt, "The victim has come for us!"

He looked toward the sound and saw a Daoist, wearing a green Daoist robe, white undershirt inside, a pair of cloth shoes on his feet, and an horsetail whisk in hand, exuding a celestial aura, not resembling a villain.

Chen Shi was about to brace himself and step forward to buy time for Lady Houtu when suddenly, from the spirit field, Lady Houtu, carrying a flower hoe, flew out to meet Qianyi Taoist, swinging the hoe with reckless abandon.

Qianyi Taoist saw her menacing approach, ready to resist, but suddenly his footing slipped, and he found himself hoisted onto the hoe, like a rootless grass, helplessly swaying in the wind.

"What kind of Daoist Skill is this? No Dao Pattern can be seen!"

He panicked, then saw a sky full of hoes descending upon him.

"So you are Qianyi Taoist, are you? So you are the one doing evil deeds, are you? So you are the one oppressing your homeland folks, are you?"

Lady Houtu shouted and cursed while beating, soon turning Qianyi Taoist over, beating him black and blue, rolling on the ground.

Qianyi Taoist tried to use Immortal Law to escape, but as he transformed into a gust of Immortal Wind, he was scooped back by the hoe, finding himself standing on the hoe again before enduring another beating.

Lady Houtu, exhausted from the beating, finally left Qianyi Taoist, returning to gathering medicine.

Chen Shi watched, his heart pounding, thinking, "No wonder the lady is so mad. There must be many wronged spirits in the underworld complaining about Qianyi Taoist. The lady was overwhelmed and thus so furious."

Suddenly, he felt something again, involuntarily looking up at the sky.

"What is Your Majesty looking at?" Lady Houtu finished collecting Immortal Herbs, carrying a basket, and kicked Qianyi Taoist twice with her toes as she passed by.

Chen Shi's expression grew increasingly peculiar, "I don't know why, but I can always sense my ascension rosy clouds stirring, as if they want to guide me to the Earth Immortal Realm."
