"Young boy Su. The Great Dao Realm is not as simple as you think or see it. Let me solemnly tell you, today, Gu Tianmiao, who fought against you, didn't even use one-tenth of his strength," Zhao Funí said calmly.
"What?" Su Chen couldn't believe it. How could that be possible? He clearly felt Gu Tianmiao was fighting fiercely, and yet only one-tenth?
"Young boy Su, don't doubt it. You should know about the World Will's limitations on the Great Dao Realm in the Minor Thousand Worlds, right?"
"I do know."
"Therefore, the Great Dao Realm, in theory, should not make a move in the Minor Thousand Worlds; otherwise, it would provoke the Heavenly Dao Will, and terrifying methods like Heavenly Punishment that could put a martial cultivator's life at risk," Zhao Funí's face grew more serious. "So, in the Minor Thousand Worlds, the Great Dao Realm generally doesn't make a move. Even if they do, they won't fight using Great Dao Rules!!!"
"Great Dao Rules?" Su Chen raised an eyebrow.
"Great Dao Rules represent the Great Dao Realm. Any martial cultivator who enters the Great Dao Realm will comprehend at least one Great Dao Rule," Zhao Funí said slowly. "The ultimate combat power of the Great Dao Realm is to incorporate Great Dao Rules into all combat techniques, multiplying the power of these techniques many times over. Take Gu Tianmiao, for instance; with his mastery of Great Dao Rules, once utilized, the power of his combat techniques can increase at least tenfold."
"Tenfold?" Su Chen felt a chill down his spine.
So, that's how it is. This explains it. Initially, Su Chen thought the Great Dao Realm wasn't all that. Although the Great Dao Realm is extremely powerful, he could currently resist it by surpassing levels.
In the deepest part of his heart, Su Chen somewhat looked down on the Great Dao Realm, not expecting...
"So today, you were quite lucky. Although Gu Tianmiao was almost driven mad by you, he ultimately retained a sliver of sanity and never used the Great Dao Rules. Otherwise, you would've been dead already," Zhao Funí snorted. "You have no idea how much risk you took today."
"I could feel Gu Tianmiao's extreme hatred for me. In such circumstances, he managed to hold back and not use the Great Dao Rules? Why?"
Su Chen was a bit puzzled. He thought if he were Gu Tianmiao, he would have definitely fought against the Heavenly Dao Will and used the Great Dao Rules to obliterate himself.
"If he had used the Great Dao Rules, the Heavenly Dao Will would directly unleash Heavenly Dao's Thunder Punishment. Even if he didn't die, he would be severely injured for ten thousand years. He didn't dare. Despite hating you to the bone, he knows that if he dies or gets severely injured for ten thousand years, the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion would be doomed," Zhao Funí's eyes showed a hint of seriousness and fear. "The Heavenly Dao's Thunder Punishment is extremely terrifying."
"Isn't the Great Dao Realm supposed to transcend the Heavenly Dao? Why can't they withstand the Heavenly Dao's Thunder Punishment?" Su Chen asked curiously.
"Indeed, the Great Dao Realm is beyond the Heavenly Dao. But the problem lies in us stubbornly staying within the world of the Great Luo Heaven's Heavenly Dao Will. You're on someone else's turf, in their home ground, understand?"
Zhao Funí sighed. "Unless you reach the Ninth Level of the Great Dao Realm, the Great Luo Heaven's Heavenly Dao Will, with its home ground advantage, can wipe out or severely injure us in the Great Dao Realm."
"Is that so?" Su Chen nodded, gaining a clearer understanding of the Great Dao Realm.
Deep inside, he was also relieved. He encountered quite a few martial cultivators from the Great Dao Realm, including Dugu Nantian, the Floating Demon Old Woman, Zhang Shidian, and Gu Tianmiao.
It turns out none of them dared to use the Great Dao Rules; otherwise, he would've died many times already.
Then Su Chen asked again, "Senior, since Gu Tianmiao didn't dare to use the Great Dao Rules, even if I leave the Xuanshi Divine Pavilion, wouldn't he be unable to do anything to me like today?"
"It's not the same. Today, he didn't dare to use the Great Dao Rules, but that doesn't mean he won't dare in the future." Zhao Funí suddenly stopped speaking, turning her head to stare deeply at Su Chen. "Young boy Su, do you know that the Heavenly Dao Will of the Great Luo Heaven seems to be encountering some trouble..."
"What do you mean?" Su Chen was a bit confused. Heavenly Dao Will encountering trouble? He didn't understand!
"It means that moving forward, as time progresses, the Heavenly Dao Will might not have much deterrence over us in the Great Dao Realm. Soon, we might all dare to use the Great Dao Rules," Zhao Funí's tone grew increasingly serious. "So, I suggest you improve your realm quickly, preferably reach the Great Dao Realm. Otherwise, once the Heavenly Dao Will's deterrence is gone, all the Great Dao Realm cultivators will dare to use the Great Dao Rules again. It will be very, very, very difficult for you to fight a martial cultivator from the Great Dao Realm by surpassing levels..."
Su Chen nodded.
He was now paying attention.
Indeed, his realm was somewhat low.
The Sixth Layer of the Fixed Character Eternal Domain is indeed too low.
"You now have the Nine-Tailed in your possession. Once you reach the Great Dao Realm, you can immediately devour the Nine Great Dao Rules within the Nine-Tailed, rapidly boosting your strength," Zhao Funí continued, not knowing that Su Chen only had eight tails, having given one to Shen Yiyao.
"Do I have to reach the Great Dao Realm before I can devour the Great Dao Rules?" Su Chen frowned. He had initially planned to devour them right away.
"Yes." Zhao Funí nodded without hesitation:
"If you're not in the Great Dao Realm, although devouring the Great Dao Rules still has some effect, it's tantamount to wasting extraordinary treasures at will."
"But once you reach the Great Dao Realm and then devour the Great Dao Rules, you can increase the number of Great Dao Rules you have mastered."
"Do you know what it means to add nine Great Dao Rules once you reach the Great Dao Realm? It almost allows you to enhance three minor realms within the Great Dao Realm directly."
"I am considered one of the strongest in the Great Luo Heaven, yet I currently only master just over thirty Great Dao Rules, which I've accumulated over ten million and two hundred thousand years."
"Take Gu Tianmiao as an example. He's the Pavilion Master of the Taiyuan Divine Pavilion, but he currently only masters about twenty Great Dao Rules, also taking nearly ten million years."
"So, you compare horizontally, and tell me what nine Great Dao Rules signify?"
"More crucially, obtaining Great Dao Rules in the current Great Luo Heaven is extremely, extremely, extremely difficult. To my knowledge, in the past three million years, the entire Great Luo Heaven, combining all martial cultivators, might have acquired only about ten or eight Great Dao Rules altogether. Otherwise, how could Gu Tianmiao hate you to the bone?"
......
After listening to Zhao Funí for so long, Su Chen finally understood some secrets. He knew that after visiting the Xuanshi Divine Pavilion this time, he couldn't leave the Xuanshi for the time being but should remain there to enhance his strength. First, as for Yu Qing's side, it would be better to notify her in other ways.
"Thank you, senior," Su Chen expressed his heartfelt gratitude.
