Chapter 220: Chaos Dojo (Fifth Watch)

However, Yin Qingcheng must have her own purpose in doing so.

What does she want to do?

Lu Ye pondered for a while but couldn't come up with any clear ideas.

No matter!

As long as Yin Qingcheng doesn't descend from the Seventh Heaven to appear before him and slap him to death, Lu Ye isn't afraid of any other means!

Cultivate, cultivate!

Third level of Karma Realm!

Fourth level of Karma Realm!

After cultivating for so long, the resources Lu Ye obtained from the Jiang family still show no sign of running out.

One can only say, the Jiang family is truly wealthy!

Time passed minute by minute.

Second Heaven.

Yue Hongling held on!

Although Bai Qiulan's words were aimed at making Yue Hongling absorb a large amount of Extreme Yin Poison for her, they did strengthen Yue Hongling's Dao heart.

Since her Fearless Dao was dependent on her senior brother, she would spare no effort to bring him back.

But it really hurt!

Yue Hongling felt herself constantly cycling between life and death. Even if she broke down, she couldn't show it because she was completely frozen.

It hurt so much!

Senior brother, senior brother!

Hong Ling was really wrong, I truly can't live without you!

Despite such torment, Yue Hongling endured and took a full six months to finally catch her breath.

Bai Qiulan also suffered immense pain. She wanted to transfer all the Chaos Venom to Yue Hongling, but the Lunar Marrow Worm's advancement this time triggered too much Extreme Yin Poison, nearly overwhelming Yue Hongling.

There was no choice—she had to bear the excess herself.

At times, Yue Hongling almost hated Shen Xitong to death. If Shen Xitong hadn't given Chanu's Extreme Yin Manual to Sun Ruowei, how could she have learned this technique?

Without this technique, she wouldn't have been able to save Bai Qiulan and would have had to watch her perish in tears.

Now... Yue Hongling felt she might die before Bai Qiulan.

Not just might—definitely!

After enduring an immense ordeal, both of them finally reached the peak of the Heavenly God Realm.

Without much hesitation.

Tribulation crossing!

Chu Ling watched from afar, her cultivation having already reached the peak of the eighth heaven of the Celestial God Realm.

Only a single step away from the ninth heaven.

She had initially considered compressing her realm or breaking through the shackles to reach the tenth heaven of the Celestial God Realm. However, as she continued cultivating, this thought gradually weakened until it vanished entirely.

Reaching the ninth heaven of the Celestial God Realm in such a short time was already an extraordinary feat.

For now, she would focus on catching up to the Young Master’s footsteps as soon as possible!

"Boom!"

Tribulation clouds gathered, and lightning streaked across the sky.

The two of them each faced their tribulation, confronting the heavenly thunder.

Given their strength, overcoming the tribulation was naturally not an issue. In fact, the early stages of heavenly tribulation—whether extremely strong or exceptionally weak—were relatively easy to pass.

The most dangerous were the average tribulation crossers.

Not strong enough, yet not too weak either.

These were the ones most likely to perish in the tribulation. A very obvious example was Sun Ruowei!

Sun Ruowei had only recently arrived in the second heaven and could no longer keep up with the main group. She also missed out on the freshest gossip.

But Sun Ruowei didn’t really mind.

Because she had already learned that Bai Qiulan, Yue Hongling, Shangguan Huanling, Chu Ling, and Shen Xitong—all of them—were Lu Ye’s dao companions!!!

This kind of relationship, how should she put it?

Sun Ruowei felt that she wouldn’t need to indulge in gossip for at least ten years—no, at least fifty years.

She was truly stuffed!

There was still something she was extremely curious about, though. These people, including Lu Ye, seemed to…

She couldn’t quite describe it accurately.

It was as if… as if they were reincarnated cultivators starting anew.

If she could uncover the full story behind this, she felt she wouldn’t need to seek out any more gossip in this lifetime!

Bai Qiulan and Yue Hongling successfully crossed their tribulations.

Both ascended!

Their eyes brimmed with anticipation and longing.

"Senior brother (husband), we’re coming!"

After entering the third heaven, they naturally searched everywhere for traces of Lu Ye, just as Shangguan Huanling had.

However, they were much smarter—they knew to visit teahouses, taverns, and bustling markets to gather rumors and hearsay.

Although more than a decade has passed since that incident, it remains a hot topic of conversation to this day.

The Jiang family!

How many years has it been since such a powerful family was annihilated in the Third Heaven?

"First, the Unity Realm experts of the Jiang family died, then the Three-Life Realm, followed by the Karma Realm!"

"And in the end, that Lu Ye commanded over fifty Unity Realm cultivators to jointly break through the ancestral artifact's defenses of the Jiang family!"

"There was a woman named Jiang Die, who offended Lu Ye back in the Second Heaven—she was the spark that ignited the feud between Lu Ye and the Jiang family!"

"When the ancestral artifact's defenses shattered, Lu Ye and Jiang Die stood facing each other, exchanging bitter words. In the end, Lu Ye, now a full-fledged Asura, a god of slaughter, struck—and Jiang Die was reduced to dust with a single blow!"

*Crash!*

Yue Hongling's wine bowl fell to the ground and shattered.

"You're saying... Jiang Die is dead too?" Yue Hongling stared at the storyteller and asked.

"Naturally. Since all grievances began with Jiang Die, it was only fitting that they ended with her!"

"This is what they say—good and evil will always meet their retribution, Providence moves in cycles. If you doubt it, just look up—has Heaven ever spared anyone?!"

"Bravo!!!"

The audience erupted in applause.

Yue Hongling's eyes were vacant, her heart struck by another wave of shock.

The Vermilion Bird was dead!

Now Jiang Die was dead too!

Senior brother... senior brother has become far too ruthless. Does he intend to kill all eight of them?

Was the hatred truly that deep?

Couples quarrel at the head of the bed but reconcile at its foot—so why...

Suddenly, Yue Hongling slapped herself hard across the face. The sharp sound immediately drew the attention of those around her.

What was wrong with her?

At this moment, Yue Hongling despised herself.

Why?

Why was she blaming senior brother again?

Jiang Die had already tried to ambush and kill senior brother—was it wrong for him to retaliate?

Of course not!

Then why was she still blaming him in her heart?

Was she out of her mind?!

Bai Qiulan also felt heartache. Every woman Lu Ye killed meant he had let go of a part of himself.

Two had already fallen—how much lingering affection still remained in his heart?

"Boom!"

Another deafening roar echoed across the sky.

At that moment, a wordless epiphany dawned upon countless minds.

The Great Dao!

A nascent Great Dao!

A pure clash of Dao, a grand contest spanning the Nine Heavens.

The Chaos Dao Field had fully opened!

Every cultivator felt it—if they so desired, their own Dao could instantly leave their bodies and journey to that alluring realm.

A certain group of people, the moment this phenomenon appeared, immediately retreated to their secluded chambers, closed their eyes, and let their Dao merge into the void, drawn away by an unseen force.

These were the ones who walked the Path of Invincibility.

Lu Ye ceased his cultivation.

His Path of Seeking the Dao was still weak, needing nourishment—the Chaos Dao Field would serve well.

Perfect timing. He could also take this chance to confront the Jiang Clan's powerhouses in advance and shatter their Dao hearts beforehand!

In an instant, countless rays of light erupted from Lu Ye's body.

The hues were not just similar to those manifested by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth—they were identical.

Chaos Dao Field, here I come!
