You still insisted on making time: "Let me out, I need to take care of some important business with your great-great-great-grandfather!"
[The 4827th generation granddaughter of the Northern Divine City Lord left with a pout.]
[The city lord will end his seclusion in three minutes and will be waiting for you outside the manor.]
You always feel awkward being with someone's great-great-grandfather and their great-great-great-granddaughter.
Although you are simply discussing the profound mysteries of the Great Dao.
Although it was a mutually agreeable arrangement, and none of the three people objected, you still feel awkward.
"You've come at the perfect time!" The city lord said solemnly. "I was also in seclusion, but the Starry Sky Palace just sent me an urgent notice!"
"A tremendous change has occurred among the Dao Beasts, those savage and unintelligent strange creatures!"
In the interstellar universe, due to the circulation of "Crystals of Dao Principles," a form of hard currency, even True Immortals sometimes go into seclusion.
This behavior will not occur elsewhere (end of chapter 825).
The original lord of Beishen City knew he lacked certain Dao principles, but he was troubled because wild Dao beasts did not possess those principles, and the corresponding environment for establishing a Dao temple was difficult.
Therefore, the only option is to take out those manifestations of the Dao principles, place them in front of oneself, and use the Dao principle crystals to enter a state of seclusion.
[But after you added points to his stats, not only did his combat power double, which is equivalent to gaining an extra resonance, but he also permanently reached the Dao Integration stage!]
[His original plan was to continue his seclusion for hundreds of millions of years to allow himself to resonate with the universe more frequently, thereby greatly increasing his strength. However, an unexpected event has occurred. The Starry Sky Palace has issued him a most urgent notice, demanding that he arrive immediately!]
[Starry Sky Palace is a supreme power jointly established by True Immortals on Earth. Regardless of race, whether human or beast, any True Immortal who breaks through to the seventh realm through normal cultivation will automatically join after entering the resonance stage.]
When you arrived at the scene, the atmosphere was incredibly gloomy. It wasn't until you displayed your "24th level" cultivation that they regained some of their vitality.
"There are actually experts at the twentieth level! I originally thought this level only existed in legends!"
"Then we should have hope, right?"
"Twenty-fourth rank...that's tens of thousands of times stronger than the nineteenth rank Radiant Dragon Emperor!"
"Our immortal beings on earth are saved!"
[Although your origins are unknown, the power you have displayed proves that you are a true immortal, not a Dao beast. You have been invited to the Supreme Conference Room, a place only those at the eighteenth level or above are qualified to attend.]
The city lord of Beishen City also benefited from your presence, getting to meet those big shots.
[Although he felt that in another hundred or eighty billion years, he would be able to catch up with those beings he could only look up to before.]
[In the conference room, according to the number of Dao principles, that is, the level of strength, each True Immortal sat in order from lowest to highest. The Palace Master, at the level of 18.8 billion, sat at the very top, and you sat above the Palace Master.]
Don't worry about the minor details; what we're about to discuss is the important part.
"Gentlemen... according to our latest intelligence, a strange change has occurred within the Dao Beast race!"
The Palace Master spoke slowly.
"We are beings from the underground, who, through diligent cultivation, ascend to immortality and are thus able to come to the surface to live and seek enlightenment."
"Billions of years ago, when our ancestors first broke through the earth's crust and stood on the land, they discovered that the ground was not empty, but filled with wild beasts—the Dao Beasts."
"Thanks to the wisdom of living beings, we have now occupied vast territories on the earth, suppressing those primitive and mindless beasts!"
【"but!"】
The palace master's tone revealed fear and unease.
"They...have begun to possess intelligence!"
"Underground, the birthplace of all living beings, is the most primordial planet."
"On those planets, the first life forms were single-celled organisms, which evolved into multicellular organisms, giving rise to fish, plants, and beasts... Finally, at some point, intelligent beings evolved, who knew how to use tools and how to cultivate themselves."
"And so, the planet's inhabitant appeared."
He paused slightly, his expression solemn.
"Now, intelligent races have also emerged among those Dao Beasts!"
"That was an absolute, ultimate qualitative change, a cataclysmic event that would destroy us, the true immortal cultivators! A terrifying catastrophe that would sweep across the entire surface and even underground!"
"Taoist!"
The Palace Master slammed his hands on the table, creating a deafening roar: "In at most two hundred billion years, they will far surpass us True Immortal cultivators and rule over both the earth and the underworld!"
"They have become immortals, and we mortals who have transformed into immortals are only fit to be their food!"
The Palace Master turned around: "Please stand for a moment, thank you."
You (stand up): "Oh."
"Even though this Daoist has only just been born, in just two hundred years he will surpass every one of us here!"
"Because they are—"
"The innate Dao body, eternally united with the Dao!"
【you:"……"】
[Lord of Beishen City: "..."]
That's it?
