Chapter 3061: Chapter 3059: Karma Flames Daoist and the Virtuous Network

When Song Shuhang first saw the ‘Dark Giant’ manipulating the ‘Domination Secret Method No. 2 Mark,’ he was worried that the fat ball lord might have part of its Heavenly Dao Authority usurped…

Because of the fat ball lord’s poor performance in the later stages, it really couldn’t be trusted.

But when he saw the ‘Dark Giant’ had been waiting in the darkness for tens of thousands of years, Song Shuhang knew that the ‘Dark Giant’ would never witness the moment when the ‘Domination Secret Method’ took effect!

The ‘Domination Secret Method No. 2 Mark’ on the fat ball lord was likely taken away by the Confucian Sage.

[Was this also within the calculations of the Confucian Sage?]

Speaking of which… When he once entered the dream of the ‘Fairy Creation’ in the past, Song Shuhang was captured by the Confucian Sage.

At that time, while in a dreamland state, Song Shuhang made a choice—he tried to convey a hint to the Confucian Sage: “Don’t compete for the Heavenly Dao.”

The hint was successfully conveyed, but the outcome of the battle between the Confucian Sage and the fat ball lord remained unchanged.

[If the Confucian Sage really did swallow the ‘Domination Secret Method No. 2 Mark’ from the fat ball lord… and then recalling how Daoist Senior inherited the 8.5 Heavenly Dao so smoothly, without encountering any obstacles… could there be a connection between the two?]

For instance, did the Confucian Sage use the effect of the ‘Domination Secret Method No. 2 Mark’ to lay out in the ‘Confucian Classic’ a path for Daozi, leading him toward the ‘8.5 Heavenly Dao Authority’ he was to assume?

Of course, this is just Song Shuhang’s speculation at the moment.

Whether the Confucian Sage’s calculations are really that formidable is still unknown.

…

…

In a vision similar to a dream, the darkness had still not dispersed.

“One hundred thousand years have passed, failed, failed, failed…” the ‘Dark Giant,’ who had been waiting bitterly for one hundred thousand years, was on the verge of turning into a Husband-Gazing Stone Statue.

Finally, after pulling an all-nighter for one hundred thousand years without rest, the ‘Dark Giant’ finally gave up.

Although it did not know which part of the plan went wrong, it vaguely guessed that its plan had mysteriously failed once again.

Because it is impossible for a ‘Battle for Heavenly Dao’ to last a full one hundred thousand years!

There can be an ‘ownerless’ transition period for the Heavenly Dao, but it absolutely cannot be this long.

“Are all these guys toxic?” the Dark Giant thought bitterly but could not express it.

The beautiful figure that had tricked him twice before—at least he knew how he had been tricked by the other, and he was clear about the process.

But this time, with the Confucian Sage and that spherical guy, he had no idea how he was tricked or which part went wrong; the Dark Giant was completely clueless.

If he knew the process, he could specifically improve the ‘Domination Secret Method’ to lay the foundation for the next success.

But without knowing the process, how could he improve the secret method?

“Next time, it will be the ninth cycle of Heavenly Dao succession. Failure is not an option.” The voice of the Dark Giant grew lower and lower until it finally sank into a long slumber again.

After entering the state of slumber, several types of magical techniques within it began to operate.

These were gathering the energy for the ‘Domination Secret Method.’

This process was extremely lengthy and required tens of millions of years.

Song Shuhang took a brief look at the process and memorized the flow, preparing to hand it over to the reliable senior powers for in-depth study afterward.

[It’s about time.] Song Shuhang thought to himself.

The ninth ‘Battle for Heavenly Dao’ had not yet begun.

The Dark Giant would need some time before its next ‘awakening.’

So Song Shuhang estimated that it was about time for him to exit from the ‘Dark Giant’s vision mode.’

Truth be told… if possible, he would really like to see the situation of the ‘ninth Battle for Heavenly Dao,’ which would be an event occurring in the distant future.

Whoosh~

Song Shuhang’s consciousness began to quietly separate from the ‘Dark Giant Vision Mode.’

The entire process was smooth and silent, causing not even the slightest reaction from the Dark Giant.

“Next time, when the Dark Giant awakens again, it will be the decisive moment of the ninth ‘Battle for Heavenly Dao,’ or perhaps the ascension of the Ninth Heavenly Dao, right?” Song Shuhang opened his eyes and murmured softly.

And they must obtain the ninth Heavenly Dao for themselves, he and Senior White.

“`

Even if it is impossible to achieve “two different individuals attaining immortality at the same time,” at least one person should attain immortality first and then plan further.

“In other words, Senior White and I might encounter the awakening Dark Giant when proving the ‘Ninth Heavenly Dao’, and it’s possible that this fellow might secretly perform a ‘Domination Secret Method’ from behind the scenes and forcefully bestow us with a secret technique.”

This is not what Song Shuhang wanted.

Therefore, it is necessary to topple the Dark Giant’s table and smash his dish.

“Has the absorption of the ‘Sub-immortalization’ of the skull and face been completed? With a state similar to ‘entering dreamland,’ making contact with the vision of the Dark Giant can also speed up the digestion of ‘Sub-immortalization’?” Song Shuhang wondered, calculating the time with his fingers.

After a brief calculation, he realized that from the beginning of ‘entering a dream-like mode’ to opening his eyes, a month had already passed.

In the past, entering dreamland would only require a single dream for tens of thousands of years.

This time it might be a low-end version, consuming a month in one go… Fortunately, this is the ‘Heavenly Dao Time Secret Realm’.

“If the digestion is complete, then I should hurry to meet up with Senior White. While the ‘Dark Sun’ is still sealed, I should try to shear the sheep multiple times and complete the ‘Sub-immortal’ state for my whole body.” Song Shuhang hurriedly prepared to get up and meet Senior White.

Additionally, the intelligence regarding the ‘Dark Giant’ hidden behind the scenes needs to be informed to all the seniors.

The research on the ‘Domination Secret Method’ also has to be prioritized.

Mister Tyrannical Song is very busy today as well.

Boom~~

Just as Song Shuhang got up, the entire ‘Heavenly Dao Time Secret Realm’ suddenly started shaking violently, as if an earthquake was occurring.

Song Shuhang: “???”

Could it be? Just by standing up, did I trigger the shaking of the entire secret realm space? Am I that heavy?

“It’s not due to you; the Time Secret Realm has been interfered with by an external force.” Chu Pavilion Lord’s Dumb Hair replied.

Even the ‘Sub-immortal Face’ couldn’t block the transmission of information from Song Shuhang’s expression.

“Who dares to attack a secret realm space created by the Heavenly Dao? Do they not want to live?” Song Shuhang immediately contacted Daoist Senior.

…

…

On the other side.

In the ‘Heavenly Dao Dimension World’ situated above all the myriad realms.

Daozi furrowed his brows.

In front of him was the Stellar Destruction Virus, still being reverse-engineered.

Daozi had always been sparing time to research a solution to reverse the ‘Stellar Destruction Virus.’

This time, the experiment seemed to have some clues, but in the very last step, the ‘Stellar Destruction Virus’ was successfully reversed and began disintegrating.

Unexpectedly, the nascent form of the disintegrating Stellar Destruction Virus suddenly exploded.

The power of the explosion was enough to destroy a star.

What’s the difference between this and a direct detonation?

…

…

At the same time.

As the reverse-engineered ‘Stellar Destruction Virus’ exploded in Daozi’s hands, in the myriad realms, a figure engulfed in karma flames sensed something and squeezed out from a crack in space.

The raging karma flames covered his aura.

He looked towards the location above the nine heavens.

Shortly after.

He arrived at the vicinity of the ‘Time Secret Realm Space’ personally crafted by Daozi.

Raising his hand, he punched out gently.

This punch wasn’t forceful, otherwise, with a single punch from the Karma Flames Daoist, the Time Secret Realm might be blasted apart.

“`

“`

He only needed to knock using his fists, letting the current ‘Heavenly Dao’ sense its arrival.

After all, this ‘time-distorted secret realm’ was a creation of the Heavenly Dao. Knocking outside the secret realm should have drawn the attention of the Heavenly Dao.

It wasn’t Daozi who appeared immediately, but rather Song Shuhang, who had the Scarlet Heaven Sword and the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber tied to his waist, stepping out of the ‘time-distorted secret realm’ and appearing right in front of the Karma Flames Daoist.

“Is it you?” Song Shuhang looked at the charred daoist.

If he hadn’t guessed wrong, this outer shell of charred coverage caused by the karmic flames should be that of the former Sixth Heavenly Dao, Daoist Priest Virtue, right?

Hum～～

As soon as Song Shuhang finished speaking, the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’ at his waist unsheathed itself, slashing towards the charred Karma Flames Daoist!

Back then, it was because of the other party that the ‘numbers’ of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber had reset to zero, and everything had had to start all over again!

“Crack crack…” The Karma Flames Daoist made a dry sound from his mouth, just hearing it made you feel like his throat had been dried out.

At the same time, he reached out a hand to lightly block.

Ding～

The Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber cut straight through the karmic flames, slicing onto the daoist’s arm.

The charred cover on the arm of the Karma Flames Daoist broke slightly, revealing the skin inside—compared to the charred shell, the skin beneath seemed exceptionally pale and tender.

The Karma Flames Daoist didn’t resist and with a light flick, sent the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’ to the side.

The karmic flames wrapping his body quickly recovered, and soon a new charred shell was burned over the open cut.

Clearly, the charred shell enveloping his body was deliberately burned onto himself by the Karma Flames Daoist.

“White…” The Karma Flames Daoist looked towards Song Shuhang, then tilted his head to search.

But he didn’t find ‘White’ anywhere.

So, he lowered his head as if sinking into meditation.

Having not seen ‘White,’ the red gleam in his eyes grew more intense, and his consciousness seemed as if it would once again fall into madness.

Song Shuhang: “!!!”

This state could be described in one sentence—Not good, will I die without having seen ‘White’?

“Senior, are you alright?” Song Shuhang asked cautiously.

At the same time, he immediately began contacting Senior Daozi.

Currently, only Daozi could barely suppress the Karma Flames Daoist.

“Crack, not… good.” The Karma Flames Daoist spoke with difficulty.

It seemed like his consciousness was blurring again and he was on the verge of losing control.

“Shall I take you to see Senior White?” Song Shuhang tentatively asked.

Maybe after seeing Senior White, the Karma Flames Daoist’s condition could return to normal?

“No…” The Karma Flames Daoist resisted.

The red glow in his eyes intensified.

“Virtue?” He looked up, his eyes burning red as he gazed at Song Shuhang.

“Oh, right, the light of virtue!” Song Shuhang suddenly understood. Last time they met, it was suppressive virtue power that helped the Karma Flames Daoist recover somewhat.

Thus, Song Shuhang willed the virtuous lamia to appear with a thought.

Great, rich, and pure light of virtue began shining from Song Shuhang.

The karmic flames enveloping the daoist’s body were oppressed by the power of virtue, like a wronged little wife being forcibly squeezed out.

“Crack…” The Karma Flames Daoist let out a low cry, involuntarily stepping back several paces.

“Senior, don’t lie down, let me cover you with the light of virtue,” Song Shuhang reminded.

“Don’t…” The Karma Flames Daoist struggled to squeeze out a word.

Song Shuhang looked puzzled: “???”

“`

Karma Flames Daoist backed up a few steps, then looked at Song Shuhang and said, “Virtue, eternity, pseudo-eternity, weak eternity.”

On Song Shuhang’s body, there was a vast power of virtue, a fat whale golden core with the properties of eternity, a pseudo-eternity body, and a sub-immortal face.

What a complex man.

Karma Flames Daoist stared at Song Shuhang, the red glow in his eyes flickering continuously.

No one knew what he was thinking.

At this time, Song Shuhang really wished he could transfer his ‘face-reading’ skill to the other party without charging any copyright fees.

“Do not, research, virus,” Karma Flames Daoist finally seemed to use all his strength to squeeze out these few words.

Having said that, he turned around and began to run away into the distance.

Just like when he had originally run out from his ‘Tomb of Immortality’, in a pitiable and crazed state, eyes blood-red, and with a strange smile at the corners of his mouth.

[Don’t research the virus? The Stellar Destruction Virus? I’m not researching it.], Song Shuhang thought puzzledly.

However, other seniors might be researching this thing.

Senior Daozi, Senior White two, three-eyed junior, and Father Goudan might research the virus and go through the reversal process.

From the hint given by Karma Flames Daoist, could there be potential dangers in researching the ‘Stellar Destruction Virus’?

“Senior Daozi?” Song Shuhang called out.

“I heard you,” Daozi’s voice responded.

“Will there be any hidden dangers?” Song Shuhang said—he was somewhat worried that Karma Flames Daoist’s current appearance might be related to his contact with the ‘Stellar Destruction Virus’. From the previous ‘Immortal Daoist Restarting the Myriad Realms’ plot, the Immortal Daoist had once collaborated with the ‘Dark Sun Giant’ and researched the ‘Stellar Destruction Virus’.

“I’ll open the Heavenly Dao Authority in a moment and conduct a thorough appraisal again to see if there’s any underhanded work. It’s just… if we don’t research it, how can we deal with these Stellar Destruction Viruses?” Daozi massaged his temples vigorously.

“Right, regarding the ‘Dark Sun Giant’, I have also discovered another piece of the inside story.” Song Shuhang utilized the Sound Transmission function to describe the existence of another ‘Dark Giant’ lurking behind the scenes to Senior Daozi.

In the Heavenly Dao Dimension World, Daozi rubbed his temples even harder.

His head ached; the Dark Sun was already challenging to deal with, and there was unexpectedly another ‘Dark Giant’ lurking in the background.

If I ever get the chance, I will surely uproot you completely and scatter your ashes!

“I’ll go talk to a few masters about this matter,” Daozi replied.

His intent withdrew from Song Shuhang’s side and moved to next door, where three-eyed junior and Father Goudan were.

“Let’s go too, let’s go pluck some more immortal wool,” Song Shuhang grabbed the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber that was still angry in the void.

Just as Song Shuhang was getting ready to open a spatial passage, not far away, a figure crossed through space and arrived—it was the long-unseen ‘Almighty Merchant’!

At this moment, this big-shot wore a complicated expression as he looked at Song Shuhang from a distance.

“Hi, Senior Almighty Seller~” Song Shuhang greeted warmly.

The Almighty Merchant did not respond to Mister Tyrannical Song’s enthusiasm.

He slightly crouched down, adopting a ‘starting run’ posture.

The next moment, his figure shot forth like lightning, turning into a gust of wind and rushing towards Song Shuhang.

One-thousandth of a second later, he brushed past Song Shuhang.

At the same time, he seemed to have tossed something onto Song Shuhang… and then, with a look of disgust, he ran far away.

Song Shuhang looked puzzled: “???”

He looked down at his chest.

There, a seed formed by pure virtue power, imbued with strands of the aura of eternity, was stuck on his chest.

Through this seed, Song Shuhang could vaguely sense that ‘virtuous network’ spread across the myriad realms.
