The Path of the Martial Arts BOSS-Chapter 1240 - 265: Take It Slow

Purple Cloud Palace, the place where the Dao Ancestor teaches the Dao.

In the past, it was here that Emperor Zhenwu and others listened to the Dao and took their first steps into Martial Arts.

However, compared to those days when anyone with talent could come and listen, the threshold of the Purple Cloud Palace has now become much higher.

Even a Divinity Realm martial artist needs to report in advance to enter, and the only ones who can freely come and go are the strongest.

Ren Piaomiao slightly raised his eyebrows, watching the Daoist pass straight by him, then entered the Purple Cloud Palace.

As soon as he entered the palace, Ren Piaomiao said directly, "The Dao Ancestor is indeed well-hidden, a supreme being who has hidden until now."

The Daoist just now was a genuine supreme being, even slightly stronger than Pei Dongliu.

Although he tried his best to hide his aura, how could he hide it from Ren Piaomiao?

For Ren Piaomiao's straightforward words, the Dao Ancestor didn't even move his slightly closed eyes, only said faintly, "Even the Buddha has left behind a supreme being like Shi Jue, how could I not have my own Taoist supreme being?"

Nowadays, the high-level combat power of the Taoist depends entirely on a foreign supreme being, Pei Dongliu, as the mainstay, which really doesn't match the millennial foundation of the Taoist. But today, upon seeing this, Ren Piaomiao knew that the Taoist was indeed the most ancient Daoist orthodoxy, even though it has suffered splits, it still has a profound foundation.

"He is not the same as Shi Jue."

Ren Piaomiao sat cross-legged, a cloud carrying him up to be on the same level as the Dao Ancestor sitting on the Dao platform, "Shi Jue is a supreme being cultivated by the Buddha, while the one just now achieved it through his own hard cultivation.

He was probably a supreme being before the great calamity. The Dao Ancestor is indeed well-hidden."

Even Qing Yu, who once united the Taoist, didn't know that such a big crocodile was hidden in the door, he thought all the Taoist supreme beings had died out.

"The Buddha was able to leave many hidden hands, why can't I?"

The Dao Ancestor said faintly, "Although I was momentarily careless and was sealed by the Heavenly Dao, in the following ten thousand years, I had many opportunities to communicate with the world.

Both the Ghost Emperor and the Three-faced God have traded with me, do you think the hidden hands I left behind would be few?"

Naturally, they would not be few.

Even Qing Yu has encountered many of the Dao Ancestor's hidden hands, such as Elder Shiming and Xuan Du.

However,

Among these hidden hands, not a single supreme being appeared. Even Xuan Du, only had a supreme state because of the Dao Ancestor's possession.

Thinking of this, Ren Piaomiao was also enlightened and said, "In those days, there were ten supreme beings on the Heavenly List, but there weren't only ten supreme beings, it seems the one just now was someone who has always hidden without revealing himself."

"No matter how unrevealing, it can't compare to being shamelessly strong," the Dao Ancestor suddenly said.

This statement was a bit pointed, evidently, the Dao Ancestor hadn't overlooked Ren Piaomiao's shameless demeanor above the gates of White Jade City.

"If the Dao Ancestor had an avatar with cultivation below the Tao Realm, you could also participate in the Debating Conference," Ren Piaomiao still maintained an air of calm, his expression without a ripple.

"I'm not as shameless as you," the Dao Ancestor continued in a faint tone, "Besides, although the cultivation techniques of the Mystical Sect are good, they ultimately fall within the realm of Qi Cultivators.

The seat of the Mystical Sect, giving it up doesn't matter. To me, your newly created Demon Sect orthodoxy poses a greater threat.

The technique of refining the Divine Demon Body is more suited to the future environment."

Due to the Human Emperor's final act, although the amount of Primordial Qi between Heaven and Earth is increasing, its inertia is also gradually increasing.

The Mystical Sect and Qi Refining orthodoxy are systems created imitating the operation of Heaven and Earth, using the manipulation of Heaven and Earth's power.

But in the future, as the inertia of Primordial Qi grows stronger, besides the Divinity Realm warriors, other martial artists will have restricted ability to manipulate Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, unable to mobilize large-scale Primordial Qi.

This will greatly limit the lower-level disciples of the Mystical Sect in the future. In reality, the most important thing for the spread of an orthodoxy is its grassroots. Without universality, no matter how strong the inheritance, it is hard to pass down through the ages.

Compared to the Mystical Sect, which manipulates the power of Heaven and Earth, the Demon Sect techniques, combined with the martial arts methods recorded in the Now Tathagata Sutra, although displaying traces of Blood Refining Martial Way, transcend it, and are more adaptable to the future environment than other martial arts.

Compared to other martial arts that need to sense Primordial Energy and absorb it, the Divine Demon Body Refining Technique of the Demon Sect only needs to eat.

Whether eating common grains or heavenly materials and earth treasures, as long as the body's consumption is met, one can stride forward. Although it does consume a lot of resources, the future world is not lacking in resources.

After all, the Primordial Qi has not diminished, instead, it is in continuous increase, only rendered more inert due to the Human Emperor's act.

Therefore, both the Dao Ancestor and the Buddha place more importance on the Demon Sect orthodoxy.

"Though the Mystical Demon is one body, I do not want to see Divine Demon Body Refining Technique widely spread within the Mystical Sect's territory. This is one aspect I hope you can remember, otherwise, both the Buddha and I would not hesitate to take action." The Dao Ancestor warned.

"Instead of worrying about this, you should be more wary of the Buddhist Sect," Qing Yu jabbed, "The Golden Body Technique and Dharma Body of the Buddhist Sect are not overly reliant on sensing Primordial Qi.

All divine skill changes are self-contained, as the Buddha himself stated."

At the heart of the matter, the increased inertia of Primordial Qi affects the True Qi Martial Way the most. Currently, breaking through from True Pill Realm to Divinity Realm has become more difficult and is far from reaching the greatest difficulty.

In the design of the Human Emperor, the future state of the Divinity Realm is less and less, hopefully none. This way, the general populace can have the safest living environment, free from the disaster of being caught in the aftermath of a Divinity Realm martial artist's exchange of blows.

"About this, I have my own considerations." The Dao Ancestor's eyes slightly closed again, spoke in an indifferent tone.

"Then I'll see what means the Dao Ancestor has," Qing Yu smiled faintly and turned to float out of the Purple Cloud Palace.

'Good, it seems the Dao Ancestor and the Buddha want to play slowly,' Qing Yu thought silently after turning away.

Not rushed, not slow, this is Qing Yu's impression of the Dao Ancestor and the Buddha, and also the harvest from these days of probing.

For immortals of such realms as the Tao Realm, time is the least valuable thing. The Dao Ancestor has all the time in the world to slowly play with the other two.

The struggle between orthodoxies cannot be decided in one day or night.

This span of time may be decades, hundreds, or even thousands of years.

Therefore, even with Ren Piaomiao's avatar of the Tao Realm personally stepping in, neither the Dao Ancestor nor the Buddha were too concerned, because a temporary victory does not equate to eternity.

Moreover, at this moment, Mystical Demon has the greatest advantage as a fact, and the Dao Ancestor and Buddha also plan to slowly weaken Qing Yu's strength.

This meeting of the Debating Conference was actually just to strike at Mystical Demon, not intending to eliminate them from the beginning.

'Unfortunately, I don't intend to play a game with you for hundreds or thousands of years. However, your intention aligns perfectly with mine.'

Ren Piaomiao, with satisfied thoughts, gracefully left the Purple Cloud Palace.
