Chapter 2068: Chapter 917: City Lord’s Conflict, Transcendence Realm_2

And from these words, he discovered places he couldn’t understand.

"Ruins Master Realm Venerate? This Realm Venerate, is it from the Taoist Spirit Chaos World?"

The Master of Origin nodded and said, "That’s right, the Ruins Master Realm Venerate is one of the eternal realm venerates of Taoist Spirit Chaos World."

"He is quite ancient, being the second eternal realm venerate after the Tao Spirit Realm Venerate."

"However, after becoming an eternal realm venerate, he left the Taoist Spirit Chaos World and his whereabouts remain unknown."

"Thousands of years ago, when the Burial Calamity Realm Venerate departed from Taoist Spirit, the Eternal Pillar was shaken, causing the Ruins Master Realm Venerate to send an awareness to Taoist Spirit."

"The Ancestral God followed this awareness to find the Ruins Master Realm Venerate, requesting his assistance. The Ruins Master Realm Venerate agreed."

"Hence, there is the current arrangement."

Han Yi’s face trembled, processing this information.

He didn’t expect that the current events were somehow related to his past actions in Guanghan Dao Domain where he killed the Jade Venerable and Jixuan Venerable.

Because he killed these two venerables, it prematurely triggered the Lord Guanghan to release the seal on the Burial Calamity Realm Venerate, leading to the Master of Heaven attacking the Eternal Pillar, causing turbulence in the Chaos Realm.

Subsequently, when the Ruins Master Realm Venerate, who had been missing for countless Chaos Eras, sensed the disturbance in the Eternal Pillar, he sent an awareness to the Taoist Spirit Chaos World.

Ultimately, it led the Ancestral God to invite him to help in the struggle for the position of Cangyun South City Lord.

"Clan Leader of Origin, how many eternal realm venerates are there in Taoist Spirit Chaos World?" asked Han Yi.

This query had remained in his heart for a long time, and now he had the opportunity to ask it.

"There were originally seven, but now there are only six left."

"At the beginning of the Chaos Realm, Tao Spirit was the eternal realm venerate, followed by Ruins Master, Fu Heng, Burial Calamity, Heavenly Destiny, Ancestral God, and Tao God."

"Ancestral God and Tao God are the most recently born eternal realm venerates in the Taoist Spirit Chaos World."

"Among these seven, the Burial Calamity Realm Venerate was tempted and rebelled against Tao Spirit, sealed together by Tao God and Ancestral God. Thousands of years ago, Guanghan leveraged the power of Tao Tomb and the pollution of Burial Calamity to release Burial Calamity, Master of Heaven attacked the Eternal Pillar, allowing Burial Calamity and Guanghan to escape."

"Additionally, Tao Spirit lost himself in the outer domain ancient times ago, before the birth of Tao God and Ancestral God."

"Fu Heng and Heavenly Destiny were sealed away, with their sealing locations known only to a few eternal realm venerates."

The Master of Origin explained.

The seven realm venerates he described spanned from the dawn of the Taoist Spirit Chaos World to the present, with the information in a few words being incredibly astounding.

From this, Han Yi finally gained some understanding of all the eternal realm venerates of Taoist Spirit Chaos World.

Previously, he knew of Tao Spirit, Heavenly Destiny, Fu Heng, Burial Calamity, Ancestral God, and Tao God, but not the Ruins Master Realm Venerate. Now, he had completed the final piece of the puzzle.

And he had finally digested the Master of Origin’s words.

Initially, due to the Burial Calamity Realm Venerate breaking free from the seal, the Master of Heaven burned his life force to attack the Eternal Pillar, which drew an awareness from the Ruins Master Realm Venerate.

This allowed Tao God, who was guarding the Eternal Pillar, to confirm the position of the Ruins Master. Subsequently, Ancestral God went to request his assistance.

With the Ruins Master Realm Venerate’s agreement, it meant that two eternal realm venerates from Taoist Spirit Chaos World would participate in the struggle for the position of Cangyun City Lord.

And if someone could become the Cangyun City Lord, Tao Spirit’s crisis could be significantly alleviated, even if the crisis erupted in the end, they could transfer to Cangyun South City, preserving Tao Spirit’s heritage and tradition.

Coincidentally, Han Yi participated in the Suyun Mountain Realm battle, broke through mid-way, followed the advice of the Master of Purple Mountain, and came to seek the Master of Origin, inadvertently getting involved.

Everything is interconnected.

Han Yi’s understanding of this phrase deepened considerably.

Immediately, he thought of another crucial issue.

"In the struggle for the position of City Lord, what do we need to do?"

According to his understanding, the struggle for the position of City Lord should solely be fought by eternal realm venerates. Origin and Taichu were all half-step transcendence realm venerates.

Compared to the true transcendent eternal realm venerates, half-step transcendence realm venerates were still too weak.

"To control the intensity of the combat, the remaining six city lords of Cangyun South City has devised rules."

"For the city lord struggle after seventy thousand years, apart from the eternal realm venerates, half-step realm venerates are also needed."

"Half-step realm venerates from Illusion World, Nirvana Realm, and True Realm each have a battlefield. Ultimately, a comprehensive assessment will select the seventh city lord."

The Master of Origin continued explaining.

Seeing the confusion in Han Yi’s eyes, he added,

"Ah, you probably don’t know the division of the half-step transcendence realm yet."

"Since it helps, I’ll also explain that."

"Half-step transcendence realm cultivators also have different realm divisions."

"Those who can basically wield the power of chaos world are called cultivators of Illusion World. Cultivators who achieve a nirvana through the power of chaos world are called cultivators of Nirvana Realm."

"Cultivators of Nirvana Realm who go through nine nirvanas to become the chaos true body are called cultivators of True Realm."

"Illusion World, Nirvana Realm, and True Realm make up the three realms of half-step transcendence."

"Among them, the majority of cultivators are from Illusion World and Nirvana Realm, while only a few are from True Realm."

"Among the few here, Origin, Taichu, and Tian Yuan are from Nirvana Realm, while Murong is from Illusion World."

"In the Taoist Spirit Chaos World, there are only two True Realm cultivators. The previous clan leader of Origin is one of them. The other is in Dao God Sect."

"True Realm cultivators are theoretically capable of challenging the eternal realm."

"..."

As the Master of Origin’s explanation went deeper, Han Yi finally gained a comprehensive understanding of the half-step transcendence realm.

What he mentioned as ’chaos world power’ is boundary power, a force that can only be sensed and utilized after ascending to half-step transcendence.

Beneath half-step realm venerates, any respectable figures theoretically cannot perceive the existence of boundary power.

Of course, this is in theory. There are exceptions, like Murong Yi of the Yellow Spring Divine Race, who after refining the Cangyun Divine Embryo, developed the mysterious ability to sense boundary power.

This ability was given to Murong Yi by the Tao Embryo.

Han Yi’s heart stirred. In fact, before he ascended to peak venerable on the immortal path system, even his divine race system had reached peak godly venerable. He still couldn’t independently sense boundary power, only relying on panel tips to recognize its existence.

But after he ascended to peak godly venerable, he gained the ability to sense boundary power, although it was very weak. During his fight with the Lord of Kuiluo and recently against the Master of Cyan Shadow, he could sense boundary power without relying on panel tips.

Under normal circumstances, the condition to sense boundary power is to climb the Eternal Pillar; thus, only half-step transcendence can sense boundary power.

The nature of boundary power is the strongest force in the Chaos World. Only by leveraging the highest mysterious place in the Chaos World, the Eternal Pillar, can one establish a connection with this power.

After thirty minutes, the Master of Origin finally stopped, and Han Yi not only knew about the realm venerates, about eternal, about some information on the Chaos World but also learned about the general arrangement for this time’s struggle for the position of Cangyun South City Lord.

Although the struggle would still take seventy thousand years, they, a few Ancestral God Stars, arrived early for precaution.

After thirty thousand years, half-step transcendence members of Dao God Sect would also arrive at Cangyun South City.

Ultimately, the power Taoist Spirit Chaos World would invest in this city lord struggle would include two eternal realm venerates and thirteen half-step realm venerates. Of course, this was the plan before Han Yi’s appearance.

With Han Yi’s appearance, his combat power was roughly equivalent to a half-step realm venerable of Illusion World, thus adding another aid to Taoist Spirit Chaos World.

"Seventy thousand years."

Han Yi suddenly realized that he had no issues with this timeline. Coming to Cangyun South City this early didn’t feel like a waste of time.

After reaching half-step transcendence realm venerate, a million years pass in the blink of an eye, even a long-term closed cultivation could last a Chaos Era.
