Yuan's Ascension-Chapter 924: Great Dao Body, Fame Spreads Across The Megaverse (2)

Chapter 924: Great Dao Body, Fame Spreads Across The Megaverse (2)

"Your ability to cultivate two Great Daos is indeed extraordinary, and now you've obtained Saintcrests. Your future chances of achieving eternity are not small," the Heavenly Domain Emissary smiled. "However, the two Great Daos still fall within the scope of the path of Laws."

Wu Yuan listened attentively. There had to be a reason for the Heavenly Domain Emissary’s decision to keep him here.

"The singularity of eternity refers to the process of becoming an eternal lifeform. Each has only one eternal essence, and different eternal essences clashing and influencing each other would make it difficult to achieve eternity," the Heavenly Domain Emissary said slowly.

"Therefore, once you leave the Crossroads, if your body refiner self wishes to cultivate the path of matter alongside the path of Laws, the influence will be extremely significant, even in your case where you've already gained a foothold.

“This is also why in the boundless megaverse, almost no one can truly cultivate both Laws and matter simultaneously," the Heavenly Domain Emissary said. "Such individuals are one in ten thousand even among Overlords."

"Oh?" Wu Yuan was slightly startled, as he hadn't considered such profound reasons.

"Then why was the Primordial Doctrine imparted during this Megaverse Crossroads?" Wu Yuan couldn't help but ask.

He could understand the Heavenly Domain Emissary's words with a little analysis. The path of matter was no secret to supreme beings. It was just extremely difficult for mortal and sempiternal lifeforms to cultivate them simultaneously, so it wasn't widely known. The difficulty was too high.

Moreover, those who could enter the introductory threshold of the Primordial Doctrine were usually at the Astral Monarch phase, and such powerhouses had already progressed very far on the path of Laws, making the possibility of switching paths extremely low. It was much more difficult than cultivating two Great Daos simultaneously.

"That's not something you should ask," the Heavenly Domain Emissary merely smiled faintly. "If you only had a third-grade Saintcrest, it would mean you hadn't met my expectations, and I wouldn't bother wasting my time on you. However, since you achieved a first-grade Saintcrest, there will be some additional bestowals."

Whoosh! As he spoke, the Heavenly Domain Emissary flipped his palm, and a hazy light descended once again. Instantly, streams of mysterious power fused into Wu Yuan's body, and part of the power merged into his Yuan Soul.

"This?" Wu Yuan was slightly surprised as he sensed some subtle changes within himself.

"Don’t question it. These external aids are just assistance. How much you achieve still depends on yourself," the Heavenly Domain Emissary said. "Those supreme beings carefully nurture their disciples, yet many of them still struggle to become Overlords.

“Even though generation after generation of Saintcrest Prodigies possess Primordial Imprints, those who can achieve eternity in the end are still few and far between."

Wu Yuan nodded slightly.

Whether it be opportunities or providence, they couldn't dictate one’s future. What mattered most was still one's own efforts.

"The last gift I've bestowed you will allow you to cultivate the path of matter and the path of Laws without mutual interference," the Heavenly Domain Emissary smiled. "This will enable you to truly cultivate both eternal paths simultaneously, and it's destined that your strength will far surpass those of the same cultivation level. I hope you won't disappoint me."

"Remember, combat power is temporary. Eternity is what you should pursue," the Heavenly Domain Emissary's voice grew ethereal as his figure gradually blurred before Wu Yuan's eyes.

The surrounding scenery began to blur as well, and spacetime distorted subtly.

Sending me away? Wu Yuan immediately understood and bowed toward the blurred white-robed figure in the void.

Eternity? Two eternal paths? Wu Yuan bowed, but his eyes held endless anticipation.

In terms of the gains reaped alone, he was undoubtedly the biggest winner of this Megaverse Crossroads, far surpassing even Zhu Shan, truly laying the foundation for his future rise to eternity. This journey was not in vain.

The foundation is set. Now it's time to work hard step by step. Wu Yuan thought to himself.

Hum~ His figure completely disappeared from the Heavenly Domain Emissary's perception.

...

Although the thousands of geniuses who advanced to the Heavenly Domain left in batches, with Wu Yuan, Zhu Shan, and the others being the last to leave, all the geniuses returned to their original locations at the same moment.

"They're back."

"All geniuses who participated in the Heavenly Domain stage have returned." Across the thirty-six universes in the megaverse, numerous Saintdom factions and powerful factions from the Abyss were instantly aware of their return.

The Overlords from various major factions who had been meditating and waiting immediately awoke and began to inquire with their faction’s participants.

"Did anyone from our Immortal Court obtain a Saintcrest?"

"How many Saintcrests were there?"

"How many from our Desolation Divine Court made it into the top hundred?"

"What happened during this Heavenly Domain stage of the Megaverse Crossroads?" The highest echelons of various forces across the boundless megaverse questioned the returning geniuses.

They inquired about the specific process of the Heavenly Domain stage, about who made it into the top hundred, top ten, who became Saintcrest Prodigies, and so on.

They attempted to gather all sorts of intelligence, especially regarding who the Saintcrest Prodigies were. After all, the Overlords of various forces all clearly understood the significance of Saintcrest Prodigies - they had an extremely high probability of becoming Overlords in the future.

"First place is Wu Yuan! Wu Yuan from the Eldritch Court."

"Second place is Zhu Shan, also from the Eldritch Court."

"The Third Saintcrest was claimed by Ming Jian from the Taiyuan Divine Court."

The entire boundless megaverse was completely shaken, and news about the three Saintcrest Prodigies began to spread at an astonishing speed to every corner of each universe. The Sovereigns of numerous major forces almost all received this news instantly.

"Ming Jian? How could a small force like the Taiyuan Divine Court produce a Saintcrest Prodigy?"

"Inconstance, who shone so brightly in the Divine Domain stage, didn't even make it into the top ten?"

"Bai Shui and Li Guang both failed?"

"The Eldritch Court produced two Saintcrest Prodigies and had three in the top ten? The Immortal Court is the biggest loser." Countless discussions echoed throughout the Saintdom-level forces.

There were controversies and confusion. For example, why didn't Inconstance and Bai Shui make it into the top ten? What were the rules of the Heavenly Domain stage, and so on. However, these were just controversies. No one could change the outcome. The Sovereigns and Overlords couldn't even find where the Megaverse Crossroads was located.

Wu Yuan! Zhu Shan! Ming Jian! In just one day, these three names truly became renowned across the megaverse, remembered by countless Sovereigns of the boundless megaverse as Saintcrest Prodigies.

...

At the Taiyuan Divine Court headquarters, in the Taiyuan True Realm, Taiyuan Island was already bubbling with excitement.

"Haha, excellent!"

"A Saintcrest Prodigy."

"Ming Jian actually claimed a Saintcrest. Unbelievable! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

"Our Taiyuan Divine Court's first Saintcrest Prodigy, the greatest genius in our history! Undisputedly number one!"

"Zhuo Haiyue also performed excellently, breaking into the top forty."

"Mm. Bai Yi and Dong Yang both made it to the Heavenly Domain stage. They are all extremely outstanding and should be heavily rewarded."

"The most dazzling of all is still Ming Jian."

Overlord Xin Ya, Overlord Shan Jin, Overlord Xue Li, Overlord Yan Kui, and other top figures of the divine court headquarters had all arrived outside Wu Yuan's residence on Taiyuan Island. Even numerous Sovereigns residing in the divine court headquarters had arrived in droves.

They were all eager to meet him. Being a Saintcrest Prodigy wasn't just an honor, but also represented a high probability of him becoming their peer in the future. The entire divine court headquarters had only eight Overlords in total.

"Esteemed Overlords." Wu Yuan's qi refiner self stood outside his hall, surrounded by the group of Overlords.

He hadn't expected that claiming a Saintcrest would cause such a stir throughout the entire Taiyuan Divine Court.

However, the most ecstatic and shocked is probably still Overlord Xin Ya. Wu Yuan's gaze met Overlord Xin Ya's for a moment.

Overlord Xin Ya was the only one among the eight Overlords of the divine court headquarters who knew about his two true selves. Compared to his qi refiner self, Wu Yuan's body refiner self was even more dazzling.

...

In the Eldritch Court Universe, dozens of peerless geniuses gathered within the hall of elites. Previously, when the Megaverse Crossroads transported them over, this group of peerless geniuses had been quietly cultivating here. Therefore, once they returned, these geniuses likewise arrived back at this place.

At this moment, within the hall of elites, the most dazzling figures were undoubtedly the two standing at the forefront of the temple—Wu Yuan! Zhu Shan! They seemed to shine with boundless radiance.

"Two Saintcrest Prodigies."

"Wu Yuan, ranked first; Zhu Shan, ranked second." Xuan Rong, Bai Lian, Qi Jue, Wan Bao, and other Supreme Geniuses all gazed at them with sighs of wonder.

Even though they had received this news firsthand in the Megaverse Crossroads not long ago, it still felt like a dream. It was truly too incredible.

"Zhu Shan obtaining a Saintcrest comes as no surprise."

"But Wu Yuan is truly astonishing—despite cultivating for just over 30,000 years, he defied all odds to claim first place."

"His strength may not necessarily surpass Zhu Shan's, but the Megaverse Crossroads evaluated that he was worthy of first place." These peerless geniuses thought to themselves.

Hum~ Hum~ Hum~ Waves of powerful auras descended, and several towering figures appeared within the hall. Their mighty auras spread, instantly suppressing the auras of all geniuses.

"The Overlords have arrived."

"Overlord Hou Jue, Great Eldritch Kua Fu." The dozens of elites in the hall all turned to look at the Overlords that had descended, bowing respectfully.

A moment of silence fell.

"You all performed very well in this Megaverse Crossroads. Our Eldritch Court did excellently." Great Eldritch Kua Fu's voice was still deep and resonant, tinged with a smile: "After ten thousand years, your strength has clearly improved tremendously. Quite a few of you have reached Sovereign-level Dao comprehension."

Indeed! Before entering the Megaverse Crossroads, there were over a dozen Supreme Geniuses in the hall, but now there were twenty-four.

"Of course, not all is positive, quite a few of our members perished in the Megaverse Crossroads." Great Eldritch Kua Fu's voice grew solemn: "Such is the path of a powerhouse, full of thorns, full of unknowns and challenges."

All the geniuses listened silently.

"As promised earlier, there will be rewards for advancing to the Heavenly Domain stage, the top hundred, the top ten, as well as for slaying enemies." Great Eldritch Kua Fu smiled: "Soon, the Overlords of your respective Saintdoms will bestow these rewards upon you."

These geniuses broke into smiles. Those in the hall of elites were all top-tier geniuses of their respective branch Saintdoms, all highly valued.

In fact, among the hundreds of thousands of Eldritch Court geniuses who participated in the Crossroads, the vast majority had already returned when the Divine Domain stage ended, and most had already returned to their respective branch Saintdoms.

Only the few hundred geniuses who participated in the Heavenly Domain stage were returning now. But compared to the hundreds of thousands of geniuses in the first batch, these few hundred geniuses were the ones truly valued by the highest echelons of the Eldritch Court.

After being tempered by the Megaverse Crossroads, several Overlords might emerge among these geniuses after countless years.

"Of course, the most successful and dazzling in this Megaverse Crossroads were Wu Yuan and Zhu Shan." Great Eldritch Kua Fu's gaze fell upon the two, exceptionally gentle.

The gazes of the other geniuses also landed on Wu Yuan and Zhu Shan, all somewhat envious. But they felt no jealousy. These geniuses had all watched Wu Yuan and Zhu Shan defeat various powerhouses step by step to break into the top ten. There was no luck involved, it was all based on absolute strength.

"Our Eldritch Court hasn't produced many Saintcrest Prodigies throughout history." Great Eldritch Kua Fu smiled: "Come, follow me to meet the Eldritch Progenitor."
