Chapter 1719: 782: Dao Light (Part 3)
Daoist Qing Yang and Huan Shu stood dumbfounded, their minds felt as if undergoing a tribulation crossing, rumbling loudly.
Is the Immortal Dao nothing but emptiness?
They wanted to refute it, thinking the Immortal Dao grants eternal life, how could it be empty?
They harmonize with heaven and earth, possess divine skills, achieving the unachievable, borrowing heaven and earth Dao power from the Dao realm, enhancing themselves.
Upon cultivating to the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm, they could even bloom dao flowers, three blossoms atop their heads, possessing unfathomable abilities.
Upon reaching Daluo Golden Immortal, they could even create new worlds, transforming them into Dao realms!
What cultivation is this? What Daoist practice is this?
How could it be all for naught?
But what lay before them, undoubtedly said to them, the Immortal Dao is empty.
What they cultivated and practiced were mere Dao Patterns. The so-called Harmonization with heaven and earth, verifying Dao skills, seemed powerful, but what did it have to do with themselves?
Failed to cultivate the physical body, failed to refine the primordial spirit.
“Cultivation immortality without cultivating oneself, like a dog biting a fish bladder, vain joy,” Daoist Qing Yang said sorrowfully.
Chen Shi murmured, “Yes, cultivation immortality without cultivating oneself, is like a dog biting a fish bladder. My primordial talisman, although it changed the underlying structure of the Immortal Dao, rewrote the Immortal Dao, it didn’t change these things…”
Since he completed the primordial talisman, he held himself in high esteem, accepting the title of Mr. Chen from others with calm, feeling that he achieved the impossible, paving an unprecedented path, deserving such honor.

Today, under the Dao Light of this Chantilo Clan strong entity, he realized that only the Dao realm within him remained, and the physical body and primordial spirit were not manifest, merely a dreamy illusion, feeling despondent.
He once consulted Immortal Master Erlang about the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill, achieved physical body mastery, yet under this Dao Light, even the shadow of the physical body wasn’t present.
Only Daoist skill achievement and Dao realm achievement barely left traces.
The Immortal Emperor must have felt similarly when arriving here, shocked, feeling the Immortal dream vacuous.
“Not long ago, Ning Zhenzi said, the Immortal Emperor told him, Teacher, the Three Pure Ones, and the two Western Buddhas also came here. Would they have had the same sentiment when seeing this Chantilo Clan entity?” Chen Shi pondered silently.
They, more powerful, perhaps left traces under the Dao Light of the Chantilo Clan entity, or they didn’t leave anything behind, thus realizing the weakness of the Immortal Dao.
“The Immortal Dao is wrong, and so am I,” he muttered softly.
The world within him was expansive and grand, surpassing any Immortal Dao field countless times, but the creator of the inner world was not him, it was Zhong Wuwang.
This was a great blow to him.
He had only this pride in the primordial talisman!
“This powerful figure of the Chantilo Clan also had shortcomings.”
Chen Shi steadied his heart spirit, carefully examining the nearly perfect physique of the Chantilo Clan entity, indeed reaching inconceivable Daoist skill, hence the physical body nearly eternal, emitting Dao Light, reflecting like a bright mirror.
But this person was still dead; perhaps his primordial spirit could not compare to his physical body, the primordial spirit was injured, divine soul destroyed.
The spirit root he cultivated also grew out of him at this moment, transforming into this Green Rice.
Though the Green Rice was an extremely rare Earth Treasure Spirit Root, yet from it, one could see his primordial spirit achievement, Daoist skill achievement was far inferior to his physical body achievement.
—Compared to his physical body, the Green Rice was indeed too weak.
“Perhaps, I can comprehend the physical body magic skill he mastered from the Chantilo Clan’s physique.”
Chen Shi quelled the frustration in his heart, calmed down, and carefully studied the Dark Sea Dao Patterns on the attire and body of the Chantilo Clan member.
His accomplishments in Dark Sea Dao Patterns were high, deciphering the Dao Patterns of the powerful Chantilo Clan member one by one, comprehending more deeply and profoundly.
“Chen Zhenwang! We’ve made a discovery here!”
Huan Shu ran up excitedly, shouting loudly from afar, “It’s the notes left by Teacher!”
Chen Shi turned a deaf ear, entering a state of forgetting himself and the outside world. Huan Shu tried to approach and awaken him, but saw Chen Shi surrounded as if in a vast ocean of primordial talismans, gigantic primordial talismans surfacing and sinking, unpredictably.
She wandered through it, quickly losing direction, unable to discern east from west.
Huan Shu, after several struggles, almost trapped in this ocean of primordial talismans, at a loss, suddenly the primordial talisman sea emitted violent tremors, she stood unsteady, felt the trembling beneath her feet, looked down, only to see boundless light surging from underfoot, supporting her form.
Huan Shu dared not move, yet she saw the dazzling bright light, shaped like a giant lotus flower, rise slowly from the primordial talisman sea.
“A lotus born in the talisman sea! Below me is Mr. Chen’s Dao flower!”
Huan Shu stood on this Dao flower, looked around but saw the ocean of primordial talismans stretching boundlessly, with no end in sight.
Suddenly, endless light surged upward from the sea, dazzling rosy clouds, countless talismans fluttering, like waves in the ocean, and another Dao flower rising from the sea!
Huan Shu’s heart slightly trembled, a second Dao flower?
On the ship, Chen Shi was still a Taiyi Golden Immortal with one Dao flower, and in just a short time, he actually cultivated a second Dao flower?
The Dao flower beneath her feet gently trembled, carrying her in the talisman sea, unknowingly arriving at the edge of the talisman sea. Daoist Qing Yang was waiting on the shore, extremely anxious, seeing her fly down from the Dao flower, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Huan Shu said, “Chen Zhenwang is in enlightenment, his harvest may be small compared to ours, we shouldn’t disturb him. We can wait until he awakens to speak further.”
Daoist Qing Yang replied, “Besides Teacher’s stone tablet, I also found a cottage, in which there are notes left by the Three Pure Ones!”
Huan Shu’s heart raced, her voice hoarse, “Three Pure Ones?”
Daoist Qing Yang nodded, “Beside it stands a pointed White Tower, within it, a Green Stele left by Zhunti and Jieyin, annotated by the Immortal Emperor.”
