Chapter 1222 Fellow Daoist

The violet bamboo swayed, and the sound of thunder swept out in waves.

In the radiant glow of the copper ring, a slender figure in a white dress was gradually outlined, ethereal and illusory.

Lin Xun was stunned.

It was the headless figure in the blood-stained dress!

However, at this moment, her dress was as clean as snow. Although the figure was blurry, one could still make out her long, silky black hair. Her head was still there!

Lin Xun’s mind shook as he finally dared to confirm that the copper ring that had soundlessly appeared in his hair had come from this woman.

Who is she?

As the woman fully appeared, the trembling forest calmed down, and the thunderous sounds toned down, once again becoming pleasing and ethereal. The atmosphere was once again clear and holy.

“Follow me,” she said and started walking. Her voice was like the sound of the flute, clear and ethereal.

Lin Xun instinctively got up. Suppressing all the doubts in his heart, he followed her closely.

Before long, the grass hut appeared, surrounded by vines, flowers, and trees. The atmosphere was refreshing and peaceful.

The woman stood before the hut in a long silence before letting out a long sigh.

“Please sit,” she said.

In front of the hut was a stone table and two stone chairs.

The woman casually sat down. Her aura was ethereal, and her figure still illusory and so feeble that it was impossible to see her face clearly.

Sitting down on a chair, Lin Xun finally couldn’t hold back and said, “Senior, may I ask…”

The woman cut him off, “I’m just a fragmented will, so there’s no need to address me as a senior. Not to mention…” She paused a little before saying, “Since you possess the Omega Door, you are one of us, so just call me fellow daoist.”

The Omega Door!

Lin Xun’s heart tumbled in shock.

This was the first time that anyone ever saw through him and discovered the existence of the Omega Door in his possession!

He took a deep breath and asked, “Fellow daoist, may I ask why you guided me to this place?”

This woman in front of him was extremely unusual. Although she was only a fragment of will, how could she be simple when she was able to recognize the Omega Door in his sea of consciousness?

“Because of an unfulfilled wish, I remained here. I calculated using divination and learned that when the great age arrives, it will also be time for me to leave.”

She waved her sleeve, and a violet bamboo teapot along with two cups appeared on the stone table.

She picked up the teapot and tilted it, pouring a stream of crystal clear violet tea. The tea emitted a refreshing fragrance that intoxicated one’s soul.

One sniff, and Lin Xun was startled as he felt refreshed all over. His mind was now clear of all distractions.

“It’s a blessing to be able to meet you before I leave, fellow daoist. I would like to use tea in place of wine and have a drink with you.” The woman raised her violet bamboo cup.

Lin Xun raised his cup and drank with her. As soon as the tea entered his throat, a sweet and fragrant energy spread all over him. He felt as if he was floating with the clouds.

“Great tea!”

His eyes lit up. Come what might, he just completely relaxed at the moment and was not in a hurry to inquire about the doubts in his heart.

The woman put down her cup and said, “Fellow daoist, there are many karmic ties on you. I wonder if you have ever thought of leaving the Ancient Wasteland Domain one day?”

Lin Xun shook his head. There were indeed many karmic ties on him, due to which he couldn’t yet consider leaving the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

“The great age is extremely splendid, carrying the luck of countless eras. However, after prosperity peaks, there is ultimately a time of decline. When you leave the Supreme Realm, you will understand that even if you become a Saint, your cultivation has already reached its end if you don’t jump out of the cage.” The woman’s voice was calm and indistinct. “However, now is indeed not yet the time you should consider this.”

Hearing this, Lin Xun’s heart surged with emotions!

He wasn’t sure why she was talking to him about this, but her words made him realize a problem.

After stepping into the Saint stage, if one did not jump out of the cage that was the Ancient Wasteland Domain, their path of cultivation was destined to be cut off!

Lin Xun couldn’t help but think of Burning Immortal Chen Linkong.

Back then, Chen Linkong had led a thousand eight hundred and eight gods to conquer the heavens, and then left his legacy in the Burning Immortal World in order to keep it alive after he left.

Since this was the case, had Chen Linkong and the others also realized that if they didn’t leave, their dao paths would be cut off in the Ancient Wasteland Domain?

“Fellow daoist, in order to jump out of the cage, must one pass the Ancient Nebula Road first?” asked Lin Xun.

“Indeed.” The woman nodded.

Lin Xun understood.

He even had this bold thought, suspecting that the Supreme Realm had been created by powerful ancient-era experts who had left the Ancient Wasteland Domain!

The purpose might be the same as Burning Immortal Chen Linkong, to keep their legacy and inheritances alive for the next generations!

Why were there so many opportunities and fortunes in the three thousand worlds and the nine upper realms?

The answer was simple. Many had been left behind by the supreme cultivators who had been qualified to step onto the Ancient Nebula Road!

“Is it true that after you leave, you will never be able to come back?” Lin Xun couldn’t help but ask.

The woman shook her head. “There might be hope, but it’s very slim.”

Hearing this, Lin Xun was more and more certain of his speculation. Experts like Burning Immortal Chen Linkong must have all realized that after leaving, they most likely wouldn’t be able to return. Only then would they leave all of their legacy and inheritances behind.

This was the fundamental reason.

Arriving at this conclusion, Lin Xun quickly discarded all thoughts on this topic as it was still too far away from him. Even if he knew more about this, it still wouldn’t mean much.

He simply asked, “Fellow daoist, my friends…”

“They all have their own fortunes. As for how much they can obtain, it’s all up to their own abilities. You don’t have to worry about them.” The woman pointed at the violet forest and said, “There are three thousand violet bamboos, each harboring a fortune that is either an ancient technique, cultivation tips, or a legacy.”

Lin Xun gasped. Only now did he realize that they had greatly underestimated this Thundering Violet Bamboo Forest!

They had thought that the bamboos were only top-class divine materials, but every single one of them actually contained a great fortune!

This was just too incredible.

“You are tempted by them as well, fellow daoist?” the woman asked.

Lin Xun nodded. Are you kidding? Who wouldn’t be? Any cultivator would be tempted!

The woman said, “Let me ask you, how do you view the daos and arts that you have mastered?”

Lin Xun was stunned. He then replied, “Different from the ordinary, learned from the method of the ancients, and I will walk my own path.”

The woman nodded and followed with another question, “In that case, are you confident to surpass the ancients and pave a path that has never been seen before?”

Lin Xun didn’t dare to answer this question presumptuously. He had only just stepped into the Supreme King stage, so how would he dare to underestimate the wisdom of the ancient sages?

He took a deep breath and answered with determination, “I can’t say for certain now, but it won’t necessarily be the case in the future.”

The woman stood up and pointed at the bamboo forest. “Back then, there was someone who was just like you, who wanted to set a precedent for the paths of dao. And so, with her own cultivation, she suppressed the inheritances in the three thousand bamboos.”

“Who?” Lin Xun’s heart trembled, but then, he looked at the woman in realization. “It’s you…”

No wonder she would tell him to consider her as a ‘fellow daoist’ and treat her as a peer.

Just like him, she sought an unprecedented dao path!

However, she was obviously from the ancient era and had never set foot in the Supreme King stage.

But it was certain that she had been an earth-shattering character!

The woman neither confirmed nor denied Lin Xun’s speculation. She only said, “If you can do it, then I’ll let you take a look at my dao and techniques.”

Lin Xun was instantly tempted.

This meant that if he could suppress the inheritances in the three thousand bamboo plants, he would be able to see and study the woman’s dao and techniques!

This was no different from a grand, opportunistic fortune that would be of immeasurable benefit to his cultivation in the future!

Lin Xun wanted to learn from the method of the ancients and walk his own path.

So he could imagine how beneficial it would be if he could study the dao and technique of a ‘peer’ who had done just that.

“So, would you like to try?” asked the woman.

Lin Xun finally understood what she meant by ‘fellow daoist.’ It was not a title in terms of seniority but instead it was her approval of his path and that she regarded him as a friend who walked the same path!

These two words now held a different meaning to Lin Xun because this woman was the only ‘fellow daoist’ that he had encountered so far in the path of cultivation!

“Yes!” How could Lin Xun refuse? He stood up and strode toward the bamboo forest without hesitation.

The woman swung her sleeve.

Buzz~

Instantly, the violet forest in Lin Xun’s vision changed. Each bamboo plant now exuded a completely different kind of might and aura.

It was as if a supreme expert was standing in its place, mighty and extraordinary with their own dao and techniques!

It was as if three thousand great heroes from different eras who had stood at the peak of their generation were shining together and illuminating the ages.

Lin Xun took a deep breath and cleared his mind, his gaze firm.

He had unshakable faith in his own path!

Boom!

The bamboo plant closest to him suddenly shook and transformed into a tall illusory figure of a middle-aged person.

“My dao is undefeated in battle, unrivaled in the world. Do you dare to discuss the dao with me?”

The voice of the figure was bold and resonant, emitting an unspeakable might.

Lin Xun’s dao had manifested into ethereal streams of light flowing around him. He cupped his fist and said, “I’m willing to try!”

Discussing the dao meant to interpret their daos and arts in order to show the strength and weaknesses of their paths.

In short, it was to spar!

“Then, let’s!”

The middle-aged figure was imposing and proud. As they rushed forth, endless dao light erupted and spread like a tidal wave.

And in their hand, a bronze war spear streaked out with a ruthless killing intent!

The momentum was unrivaled and overbearing.This chapter is updated by (F)ire

Lin Xun showed no expressions and no sign that he planned to dodge. He even rushed to the attack and clashed with it.

With a boom, the battle erupted like two suns were colliding. As the saying went, ‘Two suns could not exist in the same sky,’ so how could one back down on the battle of daos?

The opponent was powerful, but Lin Xun was no less overbearing!

In front of the hut, the woman sat down again. She picked up the violet bamboo teapot, poured a cup for herself, and gently sipped the tea, without ever taking her gaze off Lin Xun.

From the moment she had first seen him, she had known that he was a ‘fellow daoist.’

But he was a more fortunate one who had stepped into an unprecedented Supreme King stage.

This was also the only regret that she could never make up for…
