Chapter 2501 Immortal Dao Laws

The furnace roared, erupting in radiant brilliance. Lin Xun sat solemn and unmoving, his presence growing sacred. It was as though he could remain seated in silent meditation for days on end.

Eventually, all the mysteries of the great dao were fully infused into the furnace, transforming into a dormant, primordial essence, becoming nourishment for the Great Dao Furnace Art.

In the past, the furnace merely housed hundreds of scriptures. Now, the furnace had refined those hundreds of scriptures. Through ultimate integration and sublimation, they had been elevated into ‘one,’ becoming an Emperor scripture forged by Lin Xun.

This was a scripture that carried the legacy of the past and carved a path for the future!

As the waves of chanting, dao sounds, and scriptures recitation gradually faded, the brilliance receded. Stillness and silence returned to the hall.

“The lower five cultivation stages form a single chapter: Building the Dao Chapter.

“The nine levels of the Longevity Tribulation King Stage form one chapter, known as the Longevity Chapter.

“The profound secrets of the Saint Stage form the Saint Dao Chapter.

“The Quasi-Emperor Stage, as the key to entering the Emperor Stage, can form a separate chapter called the Emperor Ascension Chapter.

“The Emperor Stage spans nine realms, each a heavenly barrier. This forms the Emperor Path Chapter.

“Unfortunately, I still lack the comprehension of two realms in the Emperor Stage: the Dao Harmonization Realm and the Ancestral Reversion Realm...”

Lin Xun muttered to himself.

During the refinement of the inheritances, he had yet to fully grasp the mysteries of the final two realms of the Emperor Stage. Although the Great Dao Furnace Art had now been completely refined and sublimated, it was not yet perfect in the truest sense.

After all, the Emperor Path Chapter remained incomplete.

Even so, Lin Xun had reaped tremendous gains from refining the scripture. Though his cultivation had not advanced, his entire dao foundation underwent a profound transformation, a seamless and perfect integration of the dao and the arts.

The creation of the Great Dao Furnace Art was the ultimate fusion between all the daos and the arts he had cultivated. His understanding of both was thus transformed and elevated.

Shua!

Seated atop the bluestone, Lin Xun opened his eyes. The grievous wounds and depleted cultivation he had suffered in the previous battle had been completely restored, and he had returned to his peak condition.

The only issue was that his five dao bodies had been utterly destroyed. All that remained were fragments of their origin powers. He had no idea how long it would take to rebuild them.

In other words, at least for now, he would be unable to rely on the five clones in battle.

Despite that, Lin Xun was not concerned. In fact, he saw this as a rare opportunity to reshape and temper his five dao bodies.

As the saying went, there was no making without breaking. Only through destruction could one rebuild something stronger.

Lin Xun couldn’t help but feel anticipation. If the five dao bodies were reforged from the very start using the secrets of the Great Dao Furnace Art, just how terrifying would their powers be in the future?

Shua!

Suddenly, a streak of white light flashed through the ethereal mist in the distance. It was the mysterious Jade Disk of Fortune. However, this time, it did not vanish. Instead, it hovered in place, as if silently staring at Lin Xun.

His heart stirred. He remained seated on the bluestone platform, quietly gazing back at the jade disk.

Buzz—

Before long, the Jade Disk of Fortune began to emit a soft hum.

At almost the same time, within the Omega Secret-Realm suspended in Lin Xun’s mind sea, an illusory snow-white feather emerged.

It was no larger than a newborn’s palm and appeared to be woven from strands of immortal light, pure and ethereal, and emanating a mysterious, transcendent aura. This was the feather left behind after Wei Mingzi’s spirit was slain in the third trial of the Great Azure Cloud Path, the Hundred Battles Secret Realm.

It was the first time this mysterious feather had revealed itself in all these years!

Shua!

Before Lin Xun could react, the snow-white feather shot out from his mind-sea, transformed into a strange symbol, and merged directly into the Jade Disk of Fortune hovering in the distance.

Swoosh—

A shower of radiant light burst forth from the jade disk, as if it had found its long-lost core and undergoing an extraordinary transformation.

Faintly, mysterious scenes of immortal dao laws surged forth, sketching the outline of a vast and boundless immortal world. Within it resided countless immortals. There were immortal kings who reigned supreme over the heavens, ancient gods and demons who traversed the cosmic void, commanding the winds and clouds...

After a long time, one by one, the scenes faded away like mist.

When Lin Xun looked again, the Jade Disk of Fortune had become crystal clear, its surface flowing with mysterious light and swirling shadows. Compared to before, it now radiated an indescribable charm and extraordinary spiritual aura.

Almost instinctively, Lin Xun extended his hand. The Jade Disk of Fortune turned into a stream of white light and gently fell into his palm. It glowed gently with no resistance at all.

Boom!

At the same time, Lin Xun felt a vast and turbulent torrent surging out from the jade disk, transforming into a stream of ancient memory that flooded his senses. It was a memory imprinted in the Jade Disk of Fortune after the fall of the epoch.

In the ruins, Wei Mingzi stood holding the Jade Disk of Fortune and said coldly, “The entire Taiyi Immortal Sect had been destroyed, but the fiend in the Demon Sealing Well still lives. What a cruel irony!”

Not far away stood an ancient well, shrouded in swirling mysterious mist. Divine and demonic roars echoed from its depths, each one chilling to the bone. Next to the ancient well, a sword lay thrust into the ground at an angle, its blade soaked in blood.

“Old Dishen, you’ve been suppressed by the Taiyi Immortal Sect for a million years. Now that the epoch has collapsed, everything of the past has perished in the great calamity. In other words, within the Taiyi Immortal Sect, only you and I remain.”

Wei Mingzi looked at the ancient well and said indifferently, “If you offer up the heartblood imbued with your will and cultivation, I’ll grant you a chance to escape your imprisonment and serve me.”

From the chaos-shrouded depths of the ancient well, a deep and cold voice rang out, “Wei Mingzi...15th generation disciple of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, a so-called legend who reached the Immortal King Realm after cultivating for ten thousand years, once hailed as the successor to the sect leader of the Taiyi Immortal Sect...”

Before the voice could finish, Wei Mingzi chuckled lightly, “Indeed, I am now the sect leader of the Taiyi Immortal Sect. I intend to establish the Taiyi Immortal Sect anew in this epoch. Old Dishen, if you submit to me, you’ll become a founding pillar of the new Taiyi Immortal Sect.”

The cold voice known as ‘Old Dishen’ spoke irritably, “Why didn’t you let me finish?”

“Alright, go on,” Wei Mingzi said.

“I was going to say...you’re nothing but a fart!”

Dishen sneered with utter contempt, “When I was conquering the world, you hadn’t even been born, yet you dare to ask me to serve you? The epoch has collapsed, and the seal on the Demon Sealing Well is already loosening. Once I regain my power, I’ll break free on my own. Why would I ever need your help?”

Wei Mingzi’s expression darkened.

Then the scenes shifted.

Clang!

A new scene began to unfold. The sword embedded at an angle in the ground beside the mysterious well suddenly erupted with a terrifying surge of will power and transformed into a man with a distinctive yet refined appearance.

𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

It was none other than the sect leader of the Taiyi Immortal Sect who Lin Xun had seen in a previous vision!

“Sect Leader!” Wei Mingzi exclaimed in shock.

“Wei Mingzi, you have disappointed me far too deeply. From this moment on, the Jade Disk of Fortune will no longer be yours. If someone is fated to inherit it in the future, I will let it be so.”

As the sect leader of the Taiyi Immortal Sect spoke, he traced a finger through the air.

The Jade Disk of Fortune that was originally held in Wei Mingzi’s hand broke free in an instant. It turned into a streak of white light and vanished without a trace.

“No—!”

Wei Mingzi’s eyes bulged with rage and he roared furiously, “Old man, the entire epoch has already collapsed, and yet you still insist on going against me. Fine! I’ll obliterate what remains of your will power myself!”

Boom!

With that, he launched an attack.

Then, the scene collapsed.

Only Wei Mingzi’s frenzied voice remained, echoing in the void, “Old man, as long as I hold the key to the Jade Disk of Fortune, no one, no matter who they are, will ever obtain it!”

All scenes disappeared completely.

Having witnessed all of this, Lin Xun’s expression shifted as countless thoughts churned in his mind. After a long while, he finally pieced together some things.

First, after the collapse of the epoch, only two people from the Taiyi Immortal Sect had survived: Wei Mingzi and the fiend sealed at the bottom of the ancient well in the Taiyi Immortal Sect. The fiend’s name was Dishen and had been suppressed for a million years!

Secondly, an immortal sword named Taiyi lay inserted into the ground at an angle beside the ancient well. Within it lingered the remaining will of the Taiyi Immortal Sect’s sect leader. It was this will power that caused Wei Mingzi to lose control over the Jade Disk of Fortune.

However, Wei Mingzi still possessed a secret key capable of commanding the Jade Disk of Fortune.

Back then, when the Omega Lord arrived at this place and defeated Wei Mingzi, he chose to suppress Wei Mingzi's primordial spirit within the Omega Secret-Realm, all for this key. Unfortunately, the Omega Lord still failed to obtain it.

Countless years later, after passing the trials of the Omega Secret-Realm and slaying Wei Mingzi’s primordial spirit, Lin Xun had unexpectedly acquired a mysterious feather. The feather was none other than the key to controlling the Jade Disk of Fortune!

When Lin Xun, Xiang Xiaoyuan, and Yue Duqiu first entered the forbidden area, the Jade Disk of Fortune had clearly sensed the feather’s presence and so it revealed itself and guided them into the ruins of the Taiyi Immortal Sect.

Even the dangers on the ninety-nine levels of stone steps was likely a test laid down by the Jade Disk of Fortune. If Lin Xun failed to pass, he wouldn’t be allowed to enter the Great Taiyi Hall and never have uncovered these hidden truths.

More importantly, he would fail to obtain the Jade Disk of Fortune!

After understanding all of this, Lin Xun’s curiosity only deepened. What kind of secrets did this Jade Disk of Fortune contain, that Wei Mingzi would rather die than surrender the key to it, and that even the Omega Lord had coveted it?

Lin Xun suddenly recalled what the Taiyi Immortal Sect’s leader once said:

“This treasure was handed down by our sect’s founder. It contains the supreme, unfathomable power of immortal dao laws...”

Immortal dao laws!

Lin Xun’s expression changed as he lowered his gaze to the Jade Disk of Fortune resting in his palm.

He attempted to infuse it with his own power, and in an instant, an immortal world unfolded before his eyes like an ancient scroll.

It was vast, magnificent, and brilliant, divided into four thousand and nine hundred continents. Each continent was comparable to a world of itself, teeming with countless living beings... Throughout it, mysterious and unfathomable immortal dao laws flowed and converged, silently sustaining the operation of the entire immortal world.

Without a doubt, this was a vision of the immortal world from the last epoch! Lin Xun could see it, but not touch or experience it.

Just then, the nirvana law power within the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron quietly emerged, like a strange lotus slowly blooming. Wisps of law aura unfurled, enveloping the Jade Disk of Fortune.
