Above the Great Dao-Chapter 1344 - 629: Hidden Dragon Ancestor_2

The realm inside the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace is extremely vast, forming its own world. Within this space of the treasure, there still remains the aura left by Creation Little Five's Harmonization.

Chen Yindou opened the wooden box he carried with him and carefully took out a tattered rag doll from it.

This rag doll was Creation Little Five, who was slain by the Heavenly Venerate in their battle.

Creation Little Five had the ability to resurrect, but this ability was based on Chen Yindou's understanding of the Creation Dao back then. At that time, Chen Yindou's understanding of the Creation Technique was far less profound than it is now, and he only used a Creation Talisman to construct Little Five's body.

After Creation Little Five was killed by the Heavenly Venerate, the Creation Talisman also shattered, rendering resurrection impossible.

"The Creation Technique is truly unfathomable. To this day, I still can't completely decipher the mysteries of the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace."

Chen Yindou's expression was somber as he placed the broken rag doll on the ground and whispered, "However, I will continue to try. If I still can't bring you back to life this time, there will be a next time, and the time after that. Don't worry, I will never abandon you!"

He soared into the air, flying out of the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace.

Standing outside the furnace, Chen Yindou activated his Daoist Skill, causing the massive Immortal Artifact to gradually illuminate with various Great Dao Textures on its surface.

The Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace was activated, and its interior lit up with brilliance from the four walls, with Dao Patterns coming alive, like fish and dragons, swimming down from the furnace walls, spiraling around Creation Little Five's Dao Realm, trying to complete the missing Dao Patterns within this Dao Realm.

The tattered rag doll also floated up on its own, hovering within the Dao Realm. The Dao Patterns of the realm were completed, and the missing Dao Patterns on its body were also replenished.

Once replenished, its broken parts began to slowly grow, gradually appearing to form a complete body.

Chen Yindou infused his understanding of the Creation Daoist Skill into the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace, attempting to recreate Creation Little Five. His head steamed with white vapor, having pushed his cultivation to the extreme. Yet when the broken Dao Patterns on the rag doll in the Immortal Furnace were repaired to ninety percent, Chen Yindou suddenly felt it hard to continue.

Feeling a wave of despair, he chose not to force it and gradually withdrew his power.

Inside the furnace, the nearly revived Creation Little Five shattered again, and the rag doll became tattered once more, falling down.

Chen Yindou's expression darkened slightly; this had happened countless times before, always ending the same way.

Even though he had comprehended eighty percent of the Creation Dao Patterns on the furnace walls, these eighty percent were the simplest and easiest to understand; the remaining twenty percent were the most difficult.

"If Little Five were here, working with me, we would have already unraveled the Creation Dao Patterns on the furnace walls."

Chen Yindou dismissed this unrealistic thought, preparing to pack up the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace and continue studying the Creation Dao Patterns. This had been his life for years, passionately driven, all for resurrecting Creation Little Five. As for researching the Maize that absorbs Dragon Qi and converts it to Spiritual Energy, it was merely a casual endeavor.

At this moment, a voice came through: "Young brother, using the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace this way won't achieve your desires. Much of your understanding of the Creation Dao Patterns is wrong."

Chen Yindou followed the voice and saw an old man leaning on a bamboo staff, a straw hat hung on his back, watching intently nearby.

The old man's attire resembled that of the nearby Tenant Immortals, yet Chen Yindou had never seen him.

Chen Yindou asked, "Do you understand the Creation Dao, elder?"

The old man laughed, "A little bit. This Immortal Furnace belonged to me in the past."

Chen Yindou was shocked and exclaimed, "Are you the master of the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace?"

The straw-hatted old man replied, "I lost a bet with someone, and I wagered this treasure, but they didn't want it, and since they didn't, I couldn't keep it either, so I tossed it into the Xuanhuang Sea."

Chen Yindou was stunned, asking if this man's reason for discarding the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace was really just losing a bet.

This Magical Treasure drifted in the Xuanhuang Sea for who knows how many years and even drifted into the Dark Sea, where it was used by a group of sea demons to attack the West Bull New Continent.

The straw-hatted old man smiled, "If you wish to learn the Creation Dao, you can apprentice to me now."

Chen Yindou bowed and said, "Disciple Chen Yindou greets Master."

The straw-hatted old man laughed, "My Dao title is Hidden Dragon, I'm the Right Heavenly Master of the Immortal Court, and a Dragon Immortal under the East Emperor. Chen Yindou, I'm here for you. Your insights into the Creation Dao have all been observed by me. Come with me; I'll teach you cultivation."

Chen Yindou was about to agree when Du Yiran and Hu Xiaoliang approached, saying from afar, "Old Chen, we've found Little Ten's whereabouts!"

Chen Yindou quickly asked, and the two discussed the Immortal Slaying List incident, saying, "It's rumored Little Ten is still in the Heavenly Court. Let's head there now; we might meet him."

Chen Yindou deliberated, ultimately deciding, shaking his head, "I can't go to the Heavenly Court. I need to follow Master to the Immortal Court and cultivate the Creation True Understanding to revive Little Five as soon as possible."

Du Yiran quickly asked, "What about Little Ten then..."

"Meeting him has to wait. Reviving Creation Little Five is more urgent."

Chen Yindou said, "This patch of Maize is yours. Having it will clear your path in cultivation."

Sha Qiutong emerged from the house, shaking his head, "Old Chen, we're going with you."

Hu Xiaoliang seemed torn and said, "What about our Maize field?"

Sha Qiutong laughed, "Could Immortal Court lack Immortal Spirit Qi? Just leave it here."

Hu Xiaoliang was still reluctant, quickly grabbing a few ears of corn from the field.

The four didn't pack; they immediately followed the straw-hatted old man, Hidden Dragon, to the Immortal Court.

"Master, could you relay a message to my grandson?"

Chen Yindou said, "My grandson is a Heavenly Soldier in the Heavenly Court."

The Hidden Dragon Heavenly Master laughed, "Why not? I'll have it sent for you."

Chen Yindou was delighted, hastily writing a letter, saying, "My grandson is named Chen Shi from the West Bull New Continent."

The Hidden Dragon Heavenly Master was surprised, "Chen Shi? The Chen Shi from the Immortal Slaying List?"

Chen Yindou cautiously said, "I think there must be some misunderstanding. My grandson has always been obedient; he couldn't have done such things."

The Hidden Dragon Heavenly Master laughed, "I understand. Don't worry. There's a chance you and your grandson might serve together in the future."

He called for a Golden Dragon, instructed it, and the dragon took the letter in its mouth and soared into the sky, quickly disappearing beyond the heavens.

Chen Yindou felt slightly relieved.

Chen Shi returned to the Heavenly Dao Residence and waited a few days, worrying as Chen Yindou hadn't come to find him. Then someone knocked on the door. Chen Shi opened it to see a brocade-robed man bowing, saying, "Are you Chen Shi, known as Chen Tianbing? I was ordered to deliver this letter."

Chen Shi took the letter, opened it, and saw it was from Chen Yindou.

The letter stated that the master of the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace, Hidden Dragon Heavenly Master, had come for him, and he had accepted apprenticeship and followed the master to the Immortal Court, urging not to worry.

The letter was brief, containing only that message.

Chen Shi read it several times over, asking the brocade-robed courier, "Thank you for delivering the letter. May I ask from whom?"

"Hidden Dragon Ancestor."

The brocade-robed man replied, "The Ancestor is a Taiyi Golden Immortal under the East Emperor Green Emperor, his Dao Realm has reached eighteen layers, incredibly powerful. He gained enlightenment back in the Great Shang Era—one of the top immortals among the Dragon Clan."

"Under the East Emperor Green Emperor?" Chen Shi pondered.

This Hidden Dragon Ancestor is under the East Emperor Green Emperor and also the Heavenly Master's in the Immortal Court; why did the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace end up in the Xuanhuang Sea?

"If it was truly misplaced, why seek out my grandfather?"

Chen Shi thought, "My grandfather has something he needs, so he's determined to bring my grandfather to the Immortal Court. Did the Hidden Dragon Ancestor discover my grandfather's talisman Dao Patterns? Yes, since the Qiankun Rebuilding Furnace is his Magical Treasure, he can monitor all my grandfather's actions through it."

Thinking this, he frowned; he had planned to return to the West Bull New Continent with his grandfather to live in glory, but now it seems it will be delayed.

"The Immortal Court is a place rife with danger. Grandpa, if there's a chance, you must find a way to escape!"
