Martial Saint!

Martial God Spear·Eastern Chanting!

Two years of seclusion, contemplation, and enlightenment were fully displayed in this spear strike. Past memories flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern. On the Martial Arts Tree, each leaf represented the pinnacle of his martial arts accomplishments; each bubble was the essence of Dao understanding.

When the accumulation is sufficient, cultivation is simply a matter of course. The most difficult stretch of the Dao Tree is thus crossed, ninety-eight thousand, ninety-nine thousand, reaching a hundred thousand zhang!

[Martial God Spear: Perfection]

[Divine Seed·Martial God Heaven (Ninth Rank)]

Effect 1: Soldier Wisdom Ninth Level, enhances more martial arts comprehension

Effect 2: Spear Dao Eighth Level, enhances more spear martial arts comprehension

...

Effect 9: Eastern Chanting, weaves a world of spears with the law of the world, a thousand meters in diameter, within which all things become spears, forming a dense spear defense that is immune to most physical attacks.]

"The Supreme Divine Skill 'Martial God Spear' is complete."

This ascension, on the one hand, is the original moves, with the power of killing moves elevated to a higher level. For example, [Star Falling Like Rain], which can gather four Martial Arts Stars. On the other hand, the move [Eastern Chanting] is a defensive technique that corresponds with [Dusk of the Gods].

Both are domain techniques, qualified to become a "Martial Arts Realm," but one focuses on killing and suppression, while the other emphasizes defense and survival.

Poof—

The grey-white [Chaos] bubble burst, all the bubbles within it also burst in an instant, transforming into a colorful floating glow, lingering around the treetop and not dispersing for a long time.

"Seeking Dao."

"Seeking Dao."

"Peeping Dao."

"The first three layers before the Dao, ultimately are just inquiring and peeping at the door of the Dao without stepping into the Daoist path. The fourth layer pushes open the Dao door, only then truly stepping into the domain of Dao, as the sages said... Entering Dao."

"Entering Dao is the ultimate pursuit of ancient grandmasters and great grandmasters, so when the sages fell, it was called [Entering Dao], but entering Dao is difficult, harder than ascending the blue sky."

"Especially in ancient times, when martial arts theories were not perfect, most Land Immortals stopped at [Seeking Dao] and [Seeking Dao], some Path-breaking Ancestors stopped at [Peeping Dao], before dying they unified heaven and man, and with peak grandmaster cultivation successfully [Entered Dao] only Zhang Ancestor. I, Lu Chenzhou, stood on the shoulders of predecessors and also accomplished it."

Lu Chenzhou increasingly admired Zhang Ancestor's greatness.

One must know that in the current era, even some Initial Realm Kings have not successfully entered Dao. 90% of Western Fighting Kings have not entered Dao. After entering Dao, his level of Dao would definitely rank among the top three hundred in this world.

There are only about three hundred enterers of Dao in the human world.

The prerequisite for a Heavenly King to give birth to a Martial Arts Realm is also to enter Dao, so that martial arts attainment and Dao understanding can manifest into a domain, within the domain, I am invincible!

Master Golden Light has not entered Dao.

Theoretically, having already generated the embryonic form of a Law Domain, Lu Chenzhou can give birth to a Law Realm at the grandmaster stage.

Buzz—the colorful light from the bubble-breaking flew towards the heavens, forming an illusory grey-white stone door floating between heaven and earth, and with a thought, he came to the front of the door, extending his finger to gently knock, his expression calm and confident.

With a creaking sound, the ancient door opened, and a wind of ages rushed towards him. He looked beyond the door...

Lu Chenzhou displayed a shocked expression.

It was indescribable; beyond the nine heavens, like the starry sky, deep and vast, in the boundless void floated a series of jade palaces, like heavenly palaces, like the abode of gods, so profound and mystical, ethereal and not something mortals can describe.

The palaces were connected and towering majestically.

On the plaques of many palaces seemed to be some faintly familiar writings, exuding an ancient aura.

As he wished to take a closer look, streaks of meteor light tore through the void, crashing down from the sky, accompanied by rumbling sounds, causing the palaces to collapse one by one.

The thousand palaces all turned to dust.

Amidst blood and fire, it seemed one could still see majestic and sacred figures, dissipating with reluctance and resentment.

Lu Chenzhou had an insight.

As the palaces collapsed, in a fleeting moment, he seemed to glimpse some things beneath the palaces, which had no concept or imagery, but to allow the masses to comprehend, they morphed into myriad bizarre shapes.

Burning bonfires,

Flowing springs,

Unyielding soil,

Lush sprouts,

Rusting ancient swords,

...

Too many too many, and that world-ending great mill hidden in the deepest darkness, these are the rules of the universe.

He had seen them before when uniting heaven and man, but unfortunately, this time it was just a fleeting glimpse and they vanished.

The nine skies surged in, obscuring his vision with floating clouds.

Everything was like a dream.

Looking again, before him was only a grey-white staircase exuding a chaotic aura, extending into the clouds. As he stepped onto the staircase, the sound of bells and drums resounded.

[Chaos: Fourth Rank (1%)]

He climbed step by step.

Soon, he reached the end of the staircase.

Ahead, the grey mist was vast and boundless.

He wanted to continue walking, but there was no road.

He had an intuition that if he could keep walking one day, he would be able to part the clouds and see the palaces again.

He also guessed who the owner of the palaces was.

Compared to the last time, this time the transformation of the Dao Tree at ten thousand zhang was completed quickly, as this staircase. Lu Chenzhou looked down, and there were words on the stair slabs.

[Chaos Dao]

[Pathfinder: Lu Chenzhou]

[Fellow Daoist: 0]

[Martyrs: 19,367]

[Wanderers: 23]

Lu Chenzhou understood its meaning.

"Throughout the ages, in the Three Thousand Worlds and the Great Wilderness, nearly twenty thousand have attempted to walk the World Dao... but the vast majority perished early, and in the universe, only I, Lu Chenzhou, have reached the Entering Dao Realm.

These martyrs are those cultivators who have fallen while attempting to cultivate the World Dao. The more numerous the cultivators, the more martyrs, making this path easier to tread.

Martyrdom also means paving the way!

Throughout history, countless cultivators have forged onward, using their Dao to connect with the Heavenly Dao, paving the way for generations!

Wanderers should be those still alive who cultivate the World Dao, though not yet entering the Dao, still lingering outside the door. So it is said, I am the head of this path, a pathfinder leading the way like the ancient path-breaking ancestors."

Lu Chenzhou left the gray-white stairway.

With a thought, another door emerged in the void. It was filled with stars, ancient and majestic, precisely the [Ultimate Strength Path]. As Lu Chenzhou's current main cultivation method, its progress was equal to the World Dao. Over the past two years, he delved deeply into the "Moving Mountain Scripture".

[Power Extremism: Fourth Rank (1%)]

Upon pushing the door open, it was still the gray-white stairway, but a branch extended to the left, penetrating into the gray mist and running parallel with the gray-white stairway.

[Power Extremism]

[Pathfinder: Yuan Jiugong (deceased)]

[Fellow Daoists: 9,856] Your support at MV^LEMP^YR keeps the series going.

[Martyrs: 1,132,193,67]

[Wanderers: 1,136,782]

"Master Yuan has fallen, but he was the pioneer of the Power Extremism, having traveled the farthest..."

"In comparison to the World Dao, cultivators of the Power Extremism are far more numerous. Among the Three Thousand Worlds, there are nearly ten thousand Dao entrants, with over a hundred million martyrs and millions of wanderers outside the entrance."

Notably, excluding certain special races, to cultivators, reaching a level of Dao generally means reaching the Grandmaster Realm. This is evidence of numerous powerful beings in the Three Thousand Worlds; if one could unify them, at the lower-to-mid-levels, the Three Thousand Worlds may not be inferior to the gods.

Three thousand is just figurative.

In reality, there are more.

And this is only the Power Extremism!

Currently, the biggest dilemma is a lack of leadership.

The Three Thousand Worlds are fighting independently.

"Moreover, the Power Extremism is somewhat niche. Although I have many Grandmaster and Great Grandmaster friends around me, not many cultivate this path... Among the Three Thousand Worlds, the innate natural paths like Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, and Wind and Thunder are the most common. For example, the entire Red Feather Divine Race follows the Fire Dao. Across the universe, Grandmaster experts are as numerous as grains of sand in the Ganges River."

Lu Chenzhou looked towards [Five Elements].

The Five Elements are the upper Dao of Gold, Wood, Water, Earth, Fire, and can be freely combined or separated. He curiously looked at [Fire].

[Fire Dao (not entered)]

[Dao Master: ???]

He then looked at the other four elements.

And found the situation similar to Fire.

"It can't be seen. One reason might be that I haven't entered the Dao yet; another might be the Five Elements path's special conditions." The end of most natural paths like Yin Yang, Five Elements, Wind and Thunder, Light and Dark is controlled by divine beings. Only divine beings have the qualification to be called Dao Masters, and those palaces are the Dao Palaces built by divine beings—they are the representatives of rules."

Lu Chenzhou realized.

Everything became clear.

The Divine Race and extraordinary races with blood ties to divine beings, True Spirits, and other powerful entities generally follow the natural paths, while some cultivators, to avoid being controlled by divine beings, choose the Acquired Dao. Essentially, both Innate and Acquired are existing cosmic rules, the only difference being if a divine being occupies the spot.

Human creation is also part of the universe.

Paths like the Fire Dao are classified as low class by cultivators primarily because they are controlled by divine beings, leaving less room for cultivators to maneuver.

"Theoretically, if the Four Emperors were given more time, they all have the potential to become Dao Masters..."

He looked at the Martial Arts Tree.

Two years of seclusion.

Entering the Chaos and Power Extremism.

Severe Poison, Withering and Flourishing, Penetration, Shadow at Third Rank.

Illusion, Five Elements, Wind and Thunder, Rotation at Second Rank. The other aspects have also grown due to progress in the Chaos Dao.

In terms of martial arts.

"Lu Wu Demon Cleansing Scripture" at the Fourteenth Layer.

Qi-Blood reaching 80,000, a Great Grandmaster End Realm cultivation, still 10,000 short of its limit, and 600 acupoints opened, leaving only the last 30 acupoints to Breakthrough Fifth and reach Sixth Layer.

"Tribulation Heart Scripture" also cultivated to the Thirteenth Layer, spiritual power reaching over 50,000 Prajna, reaching Great Grandmaster End Realm standards. Unknowingly, his spiritual embodiment walked out of Lantuo Temple, gained fame in the Hanhai Realm for twenty years.

"Five Elements Mixed Qi Technique" at the Sixth Layer, with the power of the Five Elements successfully elevated to the Heavenly Grade, combining with the Second Rank Five Elements path, enhancing all-around qualities.

"Hidden Essence Technique" at the Third Layer.

As for "Six Volumes of Grey Dragon" and "Mystic Turtle Sea Suppressing Fist," practiced when convenient, now mastered.

The "Nine Dukes Moving Mountains Scripture," following breakthroughs in the Power Extremism, gained mastery over [Nine Mountains Power], now transforming into [Power of One Sea], signifying the most significant achievement.

He also practiced numerous small techniques to enrich abilities and cover weaknesses, which need not be elaborated.

The Lighting Order flickered and the Northern Guardian King appeared.

"Chenzhou, you've finally emerged from seclusion."
