Chapter 1886 - Chapter 1886 Chapter 828 Reunion with Houtu Three Visits to

Chapter 1886: Chapter 828: Reunion with Houtu, Three Visits to Ten Thousand Travel Chapter 1886: Chapter 828: Reunion with Houtu, Three Visits to Ten Thousand Travel Houtu still looked the same as before, but the aura emanating from her was no longer that of the first step in the Tao Realm; she had ascended to the second step, that is, the Daoist Fruit Realm.

Han Yi could tell her Realm at a glance, and his eyes also lit up slightly.

It seemed that near the Transcending Tao Trace, with Lei Yan Heavenly Venerate protecting the path, the comprehensions Houtu gained must have been unimaginably rich, and with a Heavenly Venerate by her side, whether it was for cultivating Tao Crystals or acquiring other resources, there would be no problem at all.

As to why a Heavenly Venerate would become a protector for an ordinary cultivator of the Tao Realm, and this ordinary cultivator of the Tao Realm, coming from the Ancient World no less, theoretically should not be connected to the Destiny Tao Palace.

This point, Han Yi could not comprehend for the time being, and it was not appropriate for him to ask.

But he knew that what the Destiny Tao Palace did was definitely not without purpose.

Amidst fleeting thoughts, Han Yi nodded with a smile, “It’s me.”

Houtu’s gaze grew even brighter, but then she suddenly realized that the aura on Han Yi was profound and towering, like a God Mountain that reached into the sky, and even without intention, it emanated a breath that made her heart tremble.

“Han Yi, you, your Realm, Outer Path, no, Harmonization, no also, have you ascended to Heavenly Venerate?”

“No, that’s still not right, this aura, it’s not Immortal Path, it’s Divine Clan cultivation; I remember you were in the Infinite Realm, have you already broken through to Godly Venerable?”

In Houtu’s gaze, there was no awe, only pure joy.

Han Yi said with a smile, “First I became Godly Venerable, and now I’m also a Heavenly Venerate.”

He glanced over at Lei Yan Heavenly Venerate, who had quietly retreated a great distance, then retracted his gaze to focus on Houtu. At that moment, his aura changed once more, completely concealing the Divine Venerable Aura, only leaving the Heavenly Venerate’s aura manifest.

At this, Houtu exclaimed once again.

“You have ascended to Heavenly Venerate after becoming a Godly Venerable.”

“Too, too, too unbelievable.”

“What in the world have you experienced over these years, to have become so powerful?”

“I thought I had caught up with you by ascending to the Daoist Fruit Realm, but the gap is still so significant.”

Houtu’s eyes were shocked, staring at Han Yi, her gaze bright and full of sincere joy for an old friend.

This time, Han Yi waved his hand and isolated the surrounding area so that even Lei Yan Heavenly Venerate, who had retreated quite a distance, couldn’t hear, because he felt that what he was about to say next was better not heard by another Heavenly Venerate.

“These years have indeed not been easy, but they’ve been extraordinary.”

“After parting with you back then, I returned to the Ancient Great World, and a Dao Ancestor from the True Holy Palace actually pursued into our realm, appearing near the Age Candle Immortal Court.”

“At that time, I struck with all my might and drove him away…”

Han Yi spoke slowly, as if describing another cultivator’s life of cultivation, his language without ripples, but the content was like a surging tide, extremely tumultuous, causing Houtu to subconsciously sweat.

Ancient Great World, Dao God Sect, Chaotic Ancient Dao Domain, ambush, Primordial Demon Dao Domain, remnants of the Ashen Mountain, Chaos vortex, Taoist Spirit Seventh Stele, Battle of Ten Thousand Travel, Ancestral God Star, Demon Witch Mountain, Ancient Battlefield of Xi Skill…

Han Yi simply mentioned what he could tell.

And each of his encounters seemed to Houtu a major life and death trial.

After Han Yi finished speaking, Houtu’s expression revealed complex emotions; if it were her, she wouldn’t have survived so many great calamities–she probably would have perished within a few thousand years in one of them.

After a while, she sighed and said:

“Truly, a terrifying yet respectable journey.”

“Not easy at all.”

Han Yi did not let the mood of ‘difficulty’ spread and continued, “Seven thousand years ago, near the Transcending Tao Trace, I saw you and Lei Yan Daoist Friend.”

“It’s a coincidence this time too; I encountered Lei Yan Daoist Friend, which gave me the opportunity to see you again.”

As he said this, Houtu, the Taoist Ancestor, snapped back to reality, her complexion showing a hint of amazement, and she said, “Right, the Hall Master of the Destiny Tao Palace’s Heavenly Battle Hall, that Baili Venerate, is he still pursuing us?”

She quickly shifted her gaze to Han Yi.

“Was it you who took action?”

Han Yi nodded without hiding anything, “Yes, I have already driven that Hall Master Baili Xi away.”

Houtu was not surprised.

“I guessed it was you. Since you have advanced to both Godly Venerable and Heavenly Venerate, your combat power must far exceed that of an Initial Stage Heavenly Venerate. It should not be difficult for you to fend off that Heavenly Venerate.”

In Houtu’s memory, it seemed inevitable that Han Yi could fight beyond his level.

“By the way, how have your experiences been over these years?” Han Yi asked in return.

Houtu shrugged her shoulders, the gesture adding a touch of Spiritual Nature to her, then said,

“My experiences over these years seem rather ordinary compared to yours.”

“After parting from you, I encountered Hall Master Lei Yan near the Transcending Tao Trace. At that time, seeing me alone, the Hall Master took me to cultivate near the Transcending Tao Trace.”

“A few thousand years ago, I comprehended the True Meaning of the Daoist Fruit Chapter and had the opportunity to ascend to the Daoist Fruit Realm. With that, Lei Yan Hall Master brought me back to the Heavenly Destiny Continent and I successfully ascended to the Daoist Fruit Realm.”

“But the Palace Master had said before that I could not return to the Destiny Tao Palace unless I became a Heavenly Venerate. So, even though I am now at the Daoist Fruit Realm, I still planned to return to Fu Heng. The Hall Master also suggested taking me back, and I agreed.”

“As soon as I stepped into the Fuheng Taoist Area, I was ambushed by Baili Venerate and taken into the Heavenly Venerate World by the Hall Master. When I reappeared, I saw you.”

Houtu did not hide anything; her experiences, compared to Han Yi’s, were truly too simple and even the pursuit by Baili Xi was just a minor ripple, really seeming ‘quite unremarkable’.
