The Strongest Cultivator Is a System Maker!-Chapter 86 - - Dao Field!
Chapter 86 - 86 - Dao Field!
"Dao Field" Hengsheng knows this word; it was mentioned in the basic formation master knowledge. He did not know the details, since the knowledge he got was solely to motivate beginners to advance to a higher rank as formation master.
The Dao Field was a term referencing an area where the Dao of Heaven and Earth was so concentrated that it caused a phenomenon of Dao Field manifestation—a phenomenon that caused the Dao to manifest itself into an earthly world, creating the Dao Field core aka Dao Monument and emitting Dao Rhythm throughout the Dao field's area.
Unseen able Dao became visible that could be sensed and seen by an ordinary mortal's naked eye, allowing cultivators to comprehend the Dao of Heaven and Earth with little effort.
In appearance, it looked resemble to the Dao Domain of Tribulation Saint Realm cultivators—force fields that project the manifestation of a Tribulation Saint cultivator's Dao into surrounding space, empowering them or even suppressing the other.
However, the Dao Field was not a manifestation of an individual Dao but a manifestation of the Dao of Heaven and Earth itself.
A Dao Field could be formed using a high-level formation, which required a high-rank formation master to create, something far beyond Hengsheng's current ability and knowledge.
He didn't even know what rank a formation master needed to be able to form an Artifact Dao Field. However, forming a Dao Field this way resulted in an incomplete Dao manifestation, meaning cultivators could not utilize it—or had only limited use—for Dao comprehension.
The Natural Dao Field that Jian Zixuan mentioned was a Dao Field formed by a natural formation. This kind of Dao Field was pure and complete since it was created by Heaven and Earth itself.
All beings could use it to comprehend the Dao of Heaven and Earth. Even mortals without a spirit core could comprehend the Dao within a Natural Dao Field if they were talented enough.
Unlike an Artifact Dao Field formation, a Natural Dao Field is unable to move and can't be destroyed, as its formation flag is the realm itself.
Hengsheng agreed to Jian Zixuan's offer. Jian Zixuan then led him through the inner pagoda on the first floor.
Soon, they entered the center of the pagoda—The plain area was covered with short grass and enclosed by a wall from all sides in the shape of a pentagon. From above, Hengsheng could see through the other floors of the pagoda, all the way up to the top level ceiling, decorated with the pentagonal emblems of the Five Phases.
The Dao Monument at the center of the Dao Field was a large, five-colored, pentagon-shaped stone tablet that emitted a Dao Rhythm covering the entire plain area.
Hengsheng observed the scene before him; many disciples of the Golden Sword sect sat cross-legged around the Dao Monument, attempting to comprehend the Dao Rhythm emanating from it.
Not only did the disciples sit around, but Hengsheng also found that there was some kind of formation surrounding the whole place; he recalled all the formation knowledge he had, and then he thought that it was some kind of control formation, one that was used to isolate and suppress the Dao Field area.
He nodded in understanding; narrowing the Dao Field area by the control formation to further increase the concentration of the Dao of Heaven and Earth within the Dao Field, and make the Dao manifestation and Dao Rhythm even more potent.
"Fellow Daoist Lan, you can step inside," Jian Zixuan said.
"Can I bring this one with me?" Hengsheng said, and he pulled out the small cat, showing her to Jian Zixuan.
"Meow?" Yunsu meowed. Then she sniffed the Dao Field in front of them, and then she noticed that the Dao Field seemed to resonate with her bloodline.
"Mew!" She cried with excitement.

Jian Zixuan, who smiled as usual, observed the cat in close range, and then his eyes turned narrowed and sharp as he felt the powerful bloodline hidden within the small body of Yunsu.
"W—What is this..? Fellow Daoist Lan, your beast companion seems to have a very strong bloodline," Jian Zixuan said. He felt an intermediate effect from the Bloodline power that was emitted from the demon beast in front of him.
"That's right. She was a talented cat," Hengsheng said; it was the first time someone seemed to notice Yunsu's formidable power, and he could not help but show off.
"You can bring her inside, but please be careful," Jian Zixuan said. Hengsheng understood what he meant, "Don't let your cat hurt my junior."
With the permission of the person in charge, Hengsheng turned himself toward the direction of the Dao Field.
He observed it closely, then he found the thin line in the middle of the air that divided the Dao Field area and the outside area.
Without hesitation, he stepped forward.
Suddenly, the sensation on his skin changed, and his eyes saw the element in the air become visible.
Countless translucent bubbles floated around, and he observed one of them with a divine sense; he found it contained many elements inside.
If he was not mistaken, they were manifestations of the Dao of Heaven and Earth.
In his arms, Yunsu seemed to see the same sight as him; she slapped her paws at the bubbles as she was curious about their nature.
Hengsheng stepped forward, intent on making his way toward the stone tablet. One after another, with each step he took, he could sense the Dao of Heaven and Earth much more clearly as he got closer to the stone tablet.
The Dao Rhythm waved through his body one after another. This sensation reminded him of when he was under the divine tree a few months ago; at that time, he had tried to comprehend the Dao for the first time.
However, the Dao Rhythm emitted from the Dao Field core was on whole another level compared to what he experienced from the divine tree's Dao Rhythm.
What he sensed at this moment was as if an Immortal cultivator were preaching the Dao to him, unveiling its mysteries through the very flow of Heaven and Earth.
Hengsheng looked for an available space to sit. While doing so, he also observed the Golden Sword disciples—there were only 14 of them, and he could feel the law aura emitting from their bodies.
He guessed that these disciples were among the best, aside from Jian Zixuan. Even though he did not sense the Dao Heart aura from them, they were still talented enough to comprehend the law at a low-level cultivation realm.
Hengsheng settled close to the stone tablet. This spot was quite distant from the other Golden Sword Sect disciples.
He brought out two cultivation mats for himself and Yunsu, placed them on the grass floor, and sat in a meditative position.
He closed his eyes, trying to sense the Dao of Heaven and Earth with his Dao Heart open and his divine sense scanning the surroundings.
The Dao manifestation made it easier for him to sense and comprehend. He carefully examined the translucent bubbles.
There was no need to guess—it was obvious from the Dao Monument's appearance alone that this was the Dao Field of the Dao of Five Elements, or aka. the Dao of Five Phases.
It was a powerful Compound Dao that represented many things, such as balance, cycles, and even the fundamental matter of the universe.
From his knowledge, the Dao of Five Phases was composed of the Dao of Fire, the Dao of Earth, the Dao of Metal, the Dao of Water, and the Dao of Wood.
Hengsheng's divine sense penetrated deeper into the translucent bubbles. As he predicted, he found five components that made up the bubbles. Ignoring four of them, he extended his divine sense toward the one that he felt familiar—the Dao of Fire.
It would be useless for Hengsheng to try to comprehend the Dao of Fire directly, as such a feat was only possible for Dao Threshold Realm cultivators and above.
Even if he managed to do that and somehow succeeded, he still wouldn't be able to contain the Dao power within his body since he lacked a proper Dao container.
What the disciples of the Golden Sword Sect were doing was not actually comprehending the Dao itself directly but rather comprehending the smaller units that assembled together to form the Dao—
The Laws.
The Dao was eternal...
The Dao was the truth—this was the term cultivators used to describe it. It was not an empty word, as it had been proven through time. However, truth could not exist without a foundation, and that foundation was the laws.
The Dao of Fire itself was a combination of many laws, such as the Laws of Heat, Explosion, and Combustion.
If he managed to comprehend these laws well, he could use them to condense the Dao of Fire immediately, when he entered the Dao Threshold Realm.
