Chapter 4890: The Great Perfection of the Taoist Master

A billion years passed.

Nine Dragon Immortal Island, located in the northwest of the Nine Dragon Immortal Realm, is its largest market city. It is a bustling hub with numerous merchants and travelers, and abundant immortal cultivation resources. Many human cultivators could be seen on Nine Dragon Immortal Island, where shops lined the streets.

The door to a secret chamber opened, and Wang Qingling emerged with a smile. Wang Qingshan, Wang Qingfeng, and others used the Enlightenment Stele to comprehend the Grand Dao, each spending tens of millions of years. Their insights were then sent to the Nine Dragon Immortal Realm for Wang Qingling and Wang Qingxiao to study. After years of secluded cultivation, Wang Qingling comprehended two more Supreme Daos, bringing her total mastery to four. Wang Qingling is currently at the late stage of Dao Venerable, mastering 2,100 Grand Daos.

She walked out and saw Wang Qingxiao sitting in a stone pavilion, speaking into a small mirror that flickered with white light. Wang Qingxiao currently masters 2,000 Grand Daos, including four Supreme Daos.

"Qingxiao, are you contacting Ninth Uncle?" Wang Qingling asked.

"No, it's Chuanming," Wang Qingxiao replied. "He has collected some maps of the Land of Return to Emptiness." Wang Changsheng had long ago instructed Wang Chuanming to gather intelligence on the Land of Return to Emptiness, with maps being the top priority.

"Have Ninth Uncle and Ninth Aunt emerged from seclusion?" Wang Qingling asked, puzzled.

"I don't know," Wang Qingxiao replied. "The last time I contacted Qingfeng, Ninth Uncle and Ninth Aunt were still in seclusion."

Wang Qingling took out a small mirror flickering with white light and cast a spell. On the mirror's surface, Wang Qingshan's face appeared.

"Tenth Sister," Wang Qingshan said, "you and Qingxiao should come to Profound Heaven Immortal Island in the Profound Heaven Immortal Realm. Ninth Uncle is preparing to take us to the Land of Return to Emptiness to search for treasures."

"Understood, we'll be right there," Wang Qingling agreed.

"Ninth Uncle wants us to go," Wang Qingling said. "Qingxiao, tell Chuanming to come too! With the maps, it will be more convenient for us."

Wang Qingxiao nodded and said to Wang Chuanming on the mirror, "Chuanming, you should also go to Profound Heaven Immortal Island! We'll meet there."

"Yes, Ancestor Qingxiao," Wang Chuanming agreed.

Wang Qingling and Wang Qingxiao changed their appearances and departed.

In the Divine Spirit Continent, there was a secluded manor. Ji Yue, Ji Ting, Ji Lei, and over thirty other Dao Venerables were seated in a green stone pavilion, discussing something.

"I hope this time we can find the origin of the last Grand Dao," Ji Lei said excitedly. "Once the Old Ancestor refines it, he will be able to master all three thousand Grand Daos." Although he had cultivated with the Enlightenment Stele for many years, he had only comprehended four Supreme Daos. However, upon entering the Chaos Ruins, he obtained one Supreme Dao Origin.

"The Dao Venerables of the three great clans will certainly enter the Land of Return to Emptiness," Ji Ting said with a frown. "The Wang family's Dao Venerables might also go."

"The Land of Return to Emptiness is vast," Ji Yue said. "Whether we encounter them is another matter. Let's just hope we find the origin of the last Grand Dao!" Ji Yue then conjured a red-glowing flying boat and stepped onto it. Ji Ting and the others quickly followed. Ji Yue cast a spell, and the red flying boat immediately emitted a dazzling red light, flying towards the sky and departing from the area.

In the Myriad Chaos Continent, within a vast manor, Xi, An, and dozens of other Dao Venerables had gathered.

"This time, we must find the origin of the last Grand Dao," Xi said gravely.

"Yes, Old Ancestor," the numerous Chaos Beasts replied.

Xi nodded and led them away.

Profound Heaven Immortal Realm, Profound Heaven Immortal Island.

In a secluded manor, Wang Changsheng, Wang Ruyan, Wang Qingfeng, Ye Haitang, Wang Mengbin, Wang Yidao, Wang Yingjie, Wang Qingshan, and over a dozen other Dao Venerables were seated in a green stone pavilion, discussing something.

"Let's scout ahead first," Wang Qingshan suggested. "We'll slowly explore the Land of Return to Emptiness, and Ninth Uncle and Ninth Aunt can go later." Wang Qingshan currently masters 2,700 Grand Daos, including four Supreme Daos.

"There's no need for that," Wang Changsheng said. "We'll go together. It will be easier to handle dangers if we're together." He currently masters 2,998 Grand Daos, but has not yet mastered the Samsara Dao.

"We will very likely encounter Dao Venerables from the Asura clan," Wang Qingfeng said. "Dao Venerables from the Heavenly Demon clan and Chaos clan will definitely go too." He is currently at the late stage of Dao Venerable, mastering four Supreme Daos.

"The Asuras certainly want to destroy us," Wang Ruyan said. "However, the Grand Elders of the Chaos clan and Heavenly Demon clan may not necessarily join forces with them. At their level, ordinary things can no longer pique their interest. It would be too difficult to get the Grand Elders of both clans to unite with the Asuras against us." She currently masters 2,950 Grand Daos, mastering five Supreme Daos.

"Let's go in together!" Wang Qingfeng said. "That way, we can look out for each other! Madam Ji and her group will also enter the Land of Return to Emptiness." Wang Qingfeng took out a red-glowing dharma plate, cast a spell into it, and a joyful expression appeared on his face. "Tenth Sister and the others are coming," he announced. He quickly walked towards the courtyard gate, opened it, and Wang Qingling, Wang Qingxiao, Wang Chuanming, and Wang Qingbai entered.

"Ninth Uncle, Ninth Aunt, you've both reached the Grand Perfection of Supreme! That's wonderful!" Wang Qingling exclaimed. Wang Qingling felt the powerful spiritual pressure emanating from Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan, and her face lit up with joy.

"You've also reached the late stage, good," Wang Changsheng asked. "How many Supreme Daos have you mastered?"

Wang Qingling and the others truthfully informed him, and Wang Changsheng gained a deeper understanding of their strength.

"Excellent," Wang Changsheng said with approval, "mastering four Supreme Daos is not weak at all." It was already very impressive that Wang Qingling and the others were able to comprehend four Supreme Daos using the Enlightenment Stele. Some Dao Venerables of the Wang family had spent tens of millions of years comprehending the Grand Dao with the Stele, yet only managed to comprehend two Supreme Daos.

"Ninth Uncle, have you mastered six Supreme Daos?" Wang Qingxiao asked.

"No, we have only mastered five Supreme Daos," Wang Changsheng replied.

"Ninth Uncle, Ninth Aunt," Wang Qingling asked, puzzled, "why are you suddenly going to the Land of Return to Emptiness to search for treasures? Wouldn't it be safer to wait until you've mastered six Supreme Daos?"

"Actually, we didn't want to go to the Land of Return to Emptiness so soon," Wang Changsheng said with a frown. "However, Madam Ji contacted us, and the Dao Venerables of the three great clans all intend to enter the Land of Return to Emptiness to search for treasures. If they find the last Supreme Dao, then we'll be in trouble." He had a premonition that mastering all three thousand Grand Daos would mean mastering everything in the world. If the Grand Elders of the three great clans mastered all three thousand Grand Daos, the Wang family would suffer a great calamity.

"They have set off, we cannot just wait idly," Wang Ruyan speculated. "Mastering all three thousand Grand Daos might allow one to control the Daos of all beings and become the One True Dao." When a Dao Ancestor advances to Dao Venerable, they can create a world, becoming the Dao of that world. If a Dao Venerable advances further, they might be able to control the Daos of all beings.

"The One True Dao?" Wang Qingling murmured, slightly stunned.

"Or perhaps it means becoming transcendent," Wang Changsheng added, "transcending all Grand Daos and surpassing all other Daos. It's getting late, let's depart!"

They left the manor. They no longer cared if other cultivators discovered their true identities. Upon leaving Profound Heaven Immortal Island, Wang Changsheng conjured a green dragon boat and stepped onto it. Wang Ruyan and the others followed closely. Wang Changsheng cast a spell, and the green dragon boat immediately emitted a dazzling green light, flying towards the sky and quickly vanishing.
