Chapter 1540: Chapter 1560: Records of the Dao Ancestor

The night was deep, and Yusuf Zuck, after waiting for a long time without any strange sounds or movements, ordered Big Black to keep watch outside the door. Big Black did not refuse and fell asleep at the door.

Yusuf Zuck took out the booklet documenting the ancestors of Dao and opened it, starting from the first Dao ancestor.

In the disarray of heaven and earth, the universe, and all creations, following the consecutive falls of the Nine Major Heavenly Lords, heaven and earth were nurtured by the sun and moon, and after a long time, sentient beings emerged. The top-ranking Dao ancestor was an old tree transforming into a spirit.

This Dao ancestor was called ’Elder Longevity.’ It is said he transformed from a tree into a person, appearing as an elder from the very start. His rank was not due to being the first born Dao ancestor, but rather because before he became a person, the Nine Major Heavenly Lords had each fallen upon him.

He was a tree upon which the Nine Major Heavenly Lords rested and trained at his treetop, leading to the awakening of his spiritual wisdom and his use of Divine Skills, all naturally cultivated by the Nine Major Heavenly Lords. In other words, he concentrated the essence of the Nine Major Heavenly Lords.

This person’s virtue was that he never killed.

This person’s flaw was his fear of fire (though ordinary divine fire or strange fire could not harm him, only departing fire could!)

This was Myla Bell’s record of the world’s first Dao ancestor, Elder Longevity. The postscript also mentions that this person did not suffer oppression from Heavenly Dao like other Dao ancestors but mysteriously disappeared, with no news to this day.

The second-ranked Dao ancestor was called ’Sky-reaching Dao Ancestor.’ This Sky-reaching Dao Ancestor arose from a burst of essence in the void when heaven and earth first opened, thereby transforming into a god, achieving the supreme Dao ancestor status.

Legend has it that after heaven and earth were first opened, one day the void suddenly collapsed, forming a gigantic black hole that continuously expanded, threatening to swallow the entire world. Later, the Nine Major Heavenly Lords filled the black hole with the stone of merit, and at that time, a wisp of blue smoke inexplicably emerged from the black hole. Initially, the Nine Major Heavenly Lords didn’t mind it, but later, after the Nine Major Heavenly Lords perished, the smoke transformed into a person, who was the Sky-reaching Dao Ancestor.

This Sky-reaching Dao Ancestor was nearly flawless, with extensive Divine Skills and no fear of any attack. However, it is rumored that his greatest weakness is the fear of a certain day!

Indeed, it is the fear of a particular day. Every year, when this day arrives, he becomes entirely limp and powerless, with all his Divine Skills rendered useless.

And this day seems to be the day of his birth, but specifically, no one knows which day it is, as this is Sky-reaching Dao Ancestor’s greatest secret and weakness, also his greatest secret.

The Sky-reaching Dao Ancestor has also disappeared into the world, with no one knowing his whereabouts.

The third-ranked is called ’Real Person Rene.’ She is a woman, born in the northwest Vital Cave after the Primordial Era, rumored to be transformed from a wisp of Vital Qi from that cave.

Vital Qi is only found in the Vital Cave and emerged only when heaven and earth first opened, belonging to a legendary energy gas that no one has seen or trained with to this day.

Of course, excluding Real Person Rene.

This woman ranks third precisely because her Vital Qi is the most mysterious qi in the world. The Eight and Nine Profound Skills and the Art of Seventy-Two Transformations mentioned in the realms are self-cultivated and inherited by this woman, making her the ancestor of myriad transformations.

Some say this woman transformed into an ordinary woman to enjoy life, while others say she reincarnated as the Heavenly Emperor, and so on. In short, Real Person Rene is very mysterious, with the most legends about her.

But her greatest fear is of dogs!

Yes, the booklet only records that she fears dogs, without specifying which dog or what kind of dog, just that she fears dogs!

Ranked fourth is ’King of Eight Directions.’ This person was not born from essence but emerged from an egg.

According to legend, when heaven and earth first opened, this egg already existed and eventually hatched, giving birth to the King of Eight Directions. He singlehandedly created the Art of Tai Chi Eight Trigrams, Art of Eight Stars Divination, Art of Life and Death of Eight Gates, and many other mystical arts and Divine Skills with the word ’Eight,’ so people called him King of Eight Directions. This person was adept at calculations and predictions, knowing heavenly secrets and earth’s geography, forecasting past lives and future, foretelling fortunes and misfortunes dawn to dusk. Regarding worldly matters, there is nothing he doesn’t know.

This person has no flaws, although he is not as robust as the first three Dao ancestors and might not even be able to defeat the fifth-ranked Ben Berry. However, he can predict, always calculating crises and events ahead of time, so to date, no one has harmed him, as he foresees things divinely.

The fifth-ranked, Ben Berry, needs no further explanation.

The sixth-ranked, Master Timothy, is also the master of the Primordial Residence!

Yusuf saw this and immediately perked up.

The Master Timothy was transformed from a strand of Chaos Qi, calling himself Primordial. Also proficient in Divine Skills, he could control the most primitive Chaos Qi, possessing enormous strength, and was adept in the Eight and Nine Profound Skills. His strongest skill was the Art of The Origin, understood and trained by himself.

His virtue: ordinary appearance, uninterested in worldly matters.

His flaw: fearing... the wife!

Yes, the flaw is ’fearing the wife.’ Fearing the wife means being afraid of one’s spouse, and Myla Bell surprisingly described her husband this way.

However, Yusuf thought carefully and felt relieved; perhaps this was Myla Bell’s joke. Maybe Master Timothy truly feared her, but writing it in the booklet was obviously in jest.

"Haha, it’s practically unwritten!" Yusuf chuckled softly as the listed virtues and flaws of Master Timothy were equivalent to not being written at all.

Yusuf continued reading, and as he read, dawn broke, and the night passed swiftly.

He closed the booklet as he rose, and dozens of servants began bringing hot water, and even new clothes, food, and other treats as if attending to an Emperor.

He wasn’t shy and bathed, ate, then took Big Black to the Primeval Grand Hall.

Today, the Primeval Grand Hall seemed even more celebratory than yesterday, opulently decorated. A thin layer of Chaos Fog drifted on the hall’s floor, making it feel like stepping on clouds upon entering.

Myla Bell warmly approached, calling him Dao Brother with each breath. Compared to yesterday, her attire today was even more graceful, a ceremonial welcome. Moreover, a unique fragrance emanated from her, not overpowering, but pleasant to smell.

During the pleasantries between Myla Bell and Yusuf Zuck, Big Black joyfully ran off, as Myla Bell also prepared a grand feast for it today. It’s said dogs love gnawing bones, and at this moment, there was a separate table in the hall, full of things that Big Black loved to eat.

No one knew how Myla Bell managed to understand Big Black’s tastes so precisely to cater to its appetite.

"Dao Brother, it’s still early. How about I take you for a stroll in the garden?" Myla Bell continued politely, courteously bowing to Yusuf Zuck. As she bowed, her fragrance wafted like a breeze.

Yusuf didn’t mind, a woman liking pleasant smells is normal. Today is a good day, spraying floral scents counts as respect towards guests.

"Alright, then I shall trouble you, Madam!" Yusuf Zuck nodded and said.
