Villain: Capture The Loli Sword Spirit At The Beginning

Listening to the arrogance in Tian Xingdao's words, and seeing the vast number of sacred artifacts around, Chen Xi finally understood what it meant to have profound heritage.

With these numerous sacred artifacts, Tian Xingdao could indeed gather a large number of strong saints in a short period of time and become a powerful force in the Immortal Domain.

"It has a profound heritage and can be considered a giant in the Immortal Domain. But..." Chen Xi pondered for a moment, carefully considering his words.

"But it is still not on par with those truly powerful forces, right? After all, the role of sacred artifacts is minimal in the face of the Dao Realm." Tian Xingdao knew what Chen Xi wanted to say.

Chen Xi nodded and then stared at Tian Xingdao.

He didn't come here to chat and reminisce with Tian Xingdao.

Tian Xingdao waved his hand lightly, and various powers of the Great Dao appeared around the palace.

The power of guarding, the power of concealment, the power of earth, the power of space...

Various powers of the Great Dao surrounded the Heavenly Palace, causing it to temporarily disappear.

At this moment, even a Dao Realm expert passing by would not be able to explore the interior of the Heavenly Palace.

This was also the reason why Tian Xingdao had just concealed himself beside Chen Xi without being discovered.

"Before that, I have one more question to ask you." Tian Xingdao's expression became serious.

"What?" Chen Xi also became serious.

"Do you know the method of transcendence?" Tian Xingdao stared at Chen Xi and asked word by word.

This is the ultimate dream of all cultivators.

Although it is possible for the Saint Realm and the Dao Realm to survive the collapse of the era.

But they are like a flat boat sailing on a stormy sea during the collapse of the era.

They can survive, but the probability is extremely low.

Only by reaching the Dao Realm can one truly possess the ability to resist the collapse of the era.

The former is survival.

The latter is resistance.

If the goal of the latter is only survival, it is almost without any difficulty.

"I know." Chen Xi didn't expect Tian Xingdao to ask this question. His heart beat faster. "First, it requires accumulation, pushing one's understanding of the Great Dao to the limit, and adjusting one's internal state to its peak. Second, it requires true mastery of a Great Dao, not borrowing. Third, it requires the recognition of the rules in the depths of the universe."

These three conditions correspond to the personal level, the cosmic level, and the true rule level that transcends the universe.

For the current Chen Xi, all of them are as difficult as reaching the sky.

His understanding of the Wheel of Reincarnation is still limited and requires time to accumulate. His physical state has not reached its peak.

As for mastering a Great Dao, it is even more distant.

As for the recognition of the rules in the depths...

He has no clue at all.

"The thing in my hand can help you reach that realm." Tian Xingdao said, without continuing to keep Chen Xi in suspense, he took out the purple gemstone containing infinite power again.

A purple light instantly spread out, occupying all the space inside the "Heavenly Palace".

The light reflected on Tian Xingdao's face, giving it a somewhat eerie appearance.

Chen Xi couldn't help but ask, "What is this exactly?"

"The essence of an era," Tian Xingdao's mouth curled slightly, "When an era collapses, the fruit formed by all the powers between heaven and earth under special conditions, containing all the powers that have ever been born in this era."

So it's power!

Upon hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't control his expression. He looked at Tian Xingdao and the purple gem in disbelief.

"How is this possible!"

His vast memory made him aware of the truth behind the collapse of an era.

Under normal circumstances, it was nothing more than the inability of the heavens and earth to support an increasing number of strong individuals, causing the rules from the depths of the universe to intervene and overturn the existence of this world, allowing those strong individuals born between heaven and earth to return to the heavens and earth once again.

The immense power returned to the heavens and earth, and then reshaped them, giving birth to a new era.

But he had never heard of such immense power being condensed into such a small gem.

This was unheard of in his memory.

"The terrifying power contained within the essence of an era is enough to instantly elevate a cultivator who has just entered the Dao realm to the peak. Tell me, can't this be considered a good thing that can help you transcend?"

"Being able to reduce millions or even billions of years of accumulation is indeed a rare good thing. However... it seems that it can only solve this one problem. Also, why don't you use it yourself if it's such a good thing?"

Tian Xingdao smiled, seemingly not surprised that Chen Xi would ask such a question.

He casually poured a cup of tea for himself and Chen Xi from the teapot on the table.

He didn't ask Chen Xi to drink it, but took a sip himself, looking relaxed and at ease.

"You and I are both geniuses among geniuses, anomalies among anomalies. They contain profound insights into the immense Dao. With our talents, we are capable of delving into the chosen Dao to the deepest level, and then wielding the immense power within it to control that Dao."

This is enough to solve the first two problems of transcending this realm, isn't it? As for how to gain the recognition of the rules from the depths of the universe, that's another problem altogether, isn't it?"

Chen Xi's brows gradually furrowed and then relaxed. "You make sense, but you still haven't explained why you don't use it yourself and choose to share it with me. As far as I know, our relationship isn't that good, is it?"

"I don't use it myself because my current realm is still not enough. I'm just a small Saint Realm cultivator. Although I consider myself quite powerful within the Saint Realm, I still can't bear the power of the essence of an era." Tian Xingdao said somewhat helplessly.

The thing is good, but he simply can't withstand it.

The limitations of the Saint Realm realm still restrict his abilities.

"As for why I'm sharing it with you, it's because I see potential in you and want to cooperate with you. Join the Heavenly Palace and become a formidable member of my Heavenly Palace, how about it?"

"What if I refuse?"

"If you refuse, then you refuse. It's just the end of our cooperation. I won't do anything to you." Tian Xingdao said with a smiling face.

Chen Xi looked at Tian Xingdao, and Tian Xingdao also looked at Chen Xi.

To join the Heavenly Palace and be subordinate to others, this was something he couldn't accept.

But he was indeed very tempted by what Tian Xingdao had in his hands.

"Alright, let's make a deal. If you help me improve my strength, I will do my best to help you with three things within my abilities."

"Three things?"

Tian Xingdao narrowed his eyes, seemingly considering whether this was a worthwhile deal or not.

After a long time, Tian Xingdao nodded.

A golden piece of paper slowly floated down from somewhere in mid-air, finally appearing in front of Chen Xi.

"The Dao Artifact, Heavenly Contract. It materializes the contract of the Great Dao. If either party violates the contract, they will be punished by the presence of the Great Dao."
