Chapter 1030: 753: The Second Golden Position
Above the Firmament
In the depths of the Void Sun Golden Position’s core, Chen Sheng slowly opened his supreme eyes that overlooked the ages with detached indifference.
His gaze pierced through the layers of dimensional barriers, clearly perceiving the pure and flawless origin gold attribute ascending from below.
This strand of Dao Gold fiercely assaulted the Golden Court, seeking to merge with the authority of the Void Sun, setting the Dao Fruit.
But the Golden Court was orderly, and the authority had its master.
Without the nod of approval from Chen Sheng, the master of the Golden Position, no matter how peerless your talent, how overwhelming the celestial phenomena, you could only knock at the door, not enter master.
Chen Sheng’s face slowly bloomed with a hint of ancient and profound smile, waving his large hand:
“Granted!”
The word fell to the ground, resonating through all realms!
The Golden Court trembled with a roar, the supreme door suddenly opened wide.
The torrent of the Golden Dao surged unceasingly, actively guiding the origin Dao Gold soaring upward, settling on the [Succession] of the Void Sun Golden Court!
…
Below in the Cloud Sea.
Chen Hua instantly sensed the perfect resonance in the mysterious void, as his own gold attribute completely resonated with the authority of the Void Sun.
He felt a surge of emotion, laughing loudly through the void, echoing across the eight desolate lands:
“Succession receives gold, orthodoxy is recorded, Dao Fruit is established, status is affirmed!”
“I have attained the Dao!”
The dragon’s roar-like Dao sound fell, golden light exploded beneath his feet.
A virtual shadow of the entirely crimson, three-legged Golden Crow bearing divine flames of an Ancient Golden Crow emerged with a roar, its divine bird cried through the void.
The Three-legged Golden Crow carried Chen Hua, transforming into a rising Great Sun of this world, soaring high, ascending step by step to the heavens.
Below the Cloud Sea, thousands of witnessing cultivators all bowed their heads.
The Purple Mansion True Masters of all heavens collectively bowed, expressions filled with awe, the sound of their mountain-and-sea-shattering greetings resounded through the mountains and rivers:
“Congratulations to the Sect Hierarch on attaining the Golden Position!”
“Greetings, True Monarch!”
Upon the Cloud Platform of the mountain gate, Yuan Hong, Hu Butu, and Zhu Dahua looked at their master ascending to the heavens, joy surging in their hearts, tears welling in their eyes.
The three of them simultaneously congratulated loudly:
“As disciples, we congratulate our master on achieving Great Success in Dao Verification!”
“Our master, singularly pioneers the Ancient Technique, crowns the eons, unrivaled divine might!”
“Today’s ascent to the Golden Court, we disciples are supremely honored!”
…
Meanwhile.
In the depths of the Taiyin Immortal Mansion, the Taiyin Fuwei Yingkui Immortal Monarch observed this scene, first paused in slight amazement, then a wave of wild joy rose in his eyes.
He had only regarded Chen Hua’s seeking gold as a trial and a game, never hoping to knock open the Golden Court.
By no means did he expect, as if the Void Sun was untended, allowing Chen Hua to settle smoothly!
“Heaven assists me indeed!”
Taiyin Immortal Monarch laughed uncontrollably in his heart, such a great opportunity could not be missed.
He no longer hesitated, immediately taking action.
“The moon borrows the sun’s light!”
As Chen Hua steadily ascended the heavens on the back of the Golden Crow, a chill spread in his hand.
The Fusang Spiritual Branch of Dao Verification Supreme Treasure, accompanying him for a long time from the Ancient Water Mansion, suddenly reversed its Dao Rhyme.
The branch that was once golden and radiant, containing the pure Yang Great Sun origin, fully shed its golden brilliance, transforming in an instant into a cold and bright Taiyin moon, shrouding the ancient shadows across ages.
The boundless moonlight fell, layer upon layer, sealing the void of ascension, cutting off his link to the Void Sun Golden Position.
“Seize!”
Boom——!!
The whole independent dimension shook violently.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, countless ancient deadwood rose from the ground.
Two Golden Position authorities wove into a Heaven and Earth Net, capturing the ’Seeker of Gold’.
In the next moment.
The void ripples burst open.
An elusive figure indistinguishable to Celestial Beings stood in the center of the moonlight, precisely the Taiyin Fuwei Yingkui Immortal Monarch.
Half his body covered in cold moonlight, half his shoulder draped in fierce Kuimu starlight, indistinguishable in gender, mysterious and inscrutable.
The Immortal Monarch deeply bowed to Chen Hua trapped in the void:
“Many thanks, fellow Daoist, for your cooperation!”
Chen Hua’s Heart Spirit suddenly sank, a bone-chilling cold swept through his Divine Soul.
Amidst it all, his connection with the Void Sun Succession authority was rapidly fading and peeling away… no longer able to grasp.
In an instant.
He saw through the entire plan, realizing this dimension had long been transformed into a massive trap by the person before him.
And the Fusang Spiritual Branch in his hand was the key medium unraveling his own golden authority from within.
Chen Hua gazed at the eerie Immortal Monarch before him, who had lived through ancient epochs, and softly chuckled bitterly:
“Now that the major situation is settled, the outcome is decided. Should I address you as Kuimu Celestial King or Vulnerable Moon Demon Ancestor?”
The Immortal Monarch raised his head and laughed heartily, the laughter pierced through dimensional barriers:
“Either will do!”
…
In the depths of the supreme Void Sun Golden Position’s core.
Chen Sheng quietly observed the whole process of the Succession authority being forcibly transferred below, his lips slowly curling into a knowing smile.
“The timing is just right.”
“The fish has finally bitten the bait.”
Filled with thought, he immediately activated an ancient ritual prepared over countless ages.
[Returning Fate and Granting the Golden Track].
The ritual commenced, Dao Fate exchanged, authorities counterbalanced…
Void Sun swapped with Kuimu!
…
In the next moment.
Taiyin Immortal Monarch’s body trembled violently, excruciating pain erupted from the depths of his Dao Foundation.
The Kuimu Golden Position origin rooted in his Divine Soul for ages was being forcibly extracted and exchanged through the Golden Track ritual!
“Who’s scheming against me?!”
“My Kuimu authority!!”
Taiyin Immortal Monarch’s eyes were fierce and blood-red.
Without the suppression of Kuimu authority, the Dao Transformation pollution built up within him could no longer be suppressed, red hair and black spots rapidly spreading.
“Resentful that year after year I pressed the golden string, in the end, it was to create a bridal gown for another!”
Only then did he awaken, realizing he bitterly collected others’ dust, unaware he had long become another’s awaited prey.
With Kuimu authority taken away, his cultivation foundation became unstable.
Taiyin Immortal Monarch could only suppress his towering anger, quickly attempt to take over the newly seized Void Sun [Succession], hoping to use the Sun Residence to fill his lack.
But as soon as he took over the Golden Position, a terrifying and forbidden pollution engulfed his whole body instantly.
The Void Sun [Succession] was the Golden Position held by the Ancient Great Sun Buddha, its pollution surpassed the [Main Position], exactly the trap laid by Chen Sheng.
“Ah——!!”
A heartrending scream echoed through the Golden Court.
The Taiyin Immortal Monarch’s Yin-Yang Dao Body was infected by the filth, rigidified and solidified, swiftly slipping into slumber.
…
At the pinnacle of the Golden Position.
Chen Sheng called upon his body to fully undertake and digest the [Kuimu] Golden Position origin just obtained.
His body was already in the Mahayana Second Realm, accommodating two Golden Position authorities was not too difficult!
“Now with Kuimu in hand, the next step is the Vulnerable Moon Golden Position.”
“With the accumulation of my body, as long as no one obstructs me in the Golden Position, without borrowing authority, I can rightfully enter the Main Position of Vulnerable Moon!”
“This matter cannot be delayed, I must seize the initiative in Dao sequence swiftly!”
…
Below in the Cloud Sea.
The shackles intertwining moonlight and wood aura dissipated slowly.
Chen Hua slowly descended back to the Dao Verification Platform, face pale.
Yuan Hong, Hu Butu, and Zhu Dahua rushed onto the high platform with quick steps, gathered around Chen Hua, their tone full of anxious concern:
“Master!”
“Are you alright?”
Chen Hua lifted his eyes, both still bright and clear, lacking any hint of dejection, instead hidden with a trace of enlightened understanding, softly comforting his disciples:
“Your master is fine, don’t worry.”
He slightly closed his eyes, the gray fog space had completely dissipated, he smiled:
“Consider it done with karma!”
“No need to be afraid anymore!”
