These four words were filled with tremulous sounds, indescribable emotions, and endless gratitude from Wang Baoleâs heart.
There were many people in Wang Baoleâs life who could influence him. However, among these people, the one who had the greatest influence on him⦠his senior brother was definitely one of them.
From the moment they first met, all the way to the middle-stage experience, coupled with the conflicts in the later stages and the eventual relief, all of this had already elevated the relationship between the two of them as fellow disciples, and it had sunk deep into their memories, it filled their memories.
They were both senior and junior brothers, and they were also fellow Daoists.
They were fellow Daoists.

Therefore, after hearing father Wangâs words, the shock he felt for Wang Baole was extremely strong. The feeling of recovering what he had lost was like a storm. He had lost his past and future, and his personality had become silent. Deep within his heart, a new wave had emerged.
It was as if ripples had appeared on the surface of a calm lake. It was as if the frozen mountain had melted.
The ripples and melting reached its peak when father Wang received Wang Baoleâs bow. With a wave of his hand, a bead that contained a soul flew out and headed straight for Wang Baole. It eventually floated in front of him.
Wang Baole looked at the bead in the midst of the peak. His gaze seemed to travel through time.
It was a bead that was filled with seven colors. There seemed to be seven colored strands of smoke swirling within it. There were many colors, but they could not cover Chen Qingziâs soul, which was sitting cross-legged and meditating in the spiraling smoke.
He had his eyes closed and seemed to be in a deep sleep. The seven-colored wisps of smoke outside his soul seemed to be nutrients that nourished his soul. Every time it passed through his soul, it would visibly strengthen his soul.
Wang Baole had seen such a pearl before. Wang Yiyiâs soul had been in a similar pearl before. It was obvious that this was a supreme treasure. Only such a supreme treasure could possess such heaven-defying powers, it could contain the soul that had dissipated, and nourish it to make it more lively.
As for the seven-colored wisps of smoke inside, with Wang Baoleâs current cultivation, he could already tell that each wisp contained rules and laws. Each WISP⦠contained endless life force.
To be more precise, it was⦠Seven Dao paths.
Seven Dao paths that were specially extracted from the universe in order to repair Chen Qingziâs soul.
Such a feat was already shocking, and one could see how important it was.
After staring at it for a long time, Wang Baole reached out and gently placed the pearl that contained Chen Qingziâs soul into his palm, fusing it into his world. When he raised his head, Wang Baole looked at his father, cupped his fists, and bowed deeply once more.
âThe stone stele world is not complete. If you want it to be complete, you will need a long period of baptism. Therefore⦠Your Senior Brotherâs soul is like a reincarnation in the stone stele world, and his future is limited. As for him⦠he possesses the potential of a dao seed, and his future is limitless.âFather Wang glanced at Wang Baole, he spoke slowly.
âHe needs a more complete world with a more comprehensive dao. For example⦠my hometown.âFather Wang turned and walked towards the lone boat. The old ape, the Fox, and patriarch Yue Xing immediately followed, only Wang Yiyi stood there, looking at Wang Baole as if she wanted to say something.
âYiyi.â
Father Wangâs voice was heard before she could speak.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Wang Yiyi was silent. She lowered her head and walked towards the lone boat. When she stepped onto the lone boat, she mustered her courage and suddenly turned to look at Wang Baole.
âFatty, are you coming or Not!â
This form of address left Wang Baole in a daze. It had been a long time since he had heard little Missy call him that. After a few moments of silence, Wang Baole laughed.
âIs there enough space on the ship?â
Even though he said that, he had already taken a step forward. He walked towards the lone boat and leaped onto it.
The ripples in the starry sky spread out. The lone boat moved slightly and headed towards the distant starry sky. It seemed slow, but as it moved forward, the air around it distorted. Illusory images flashed. From those images.., one could see stars, stars, and universes.
Is this the great universe⦠Wang Baole sat on the lone boat and turned his head to look outside the boat. A strange glint appeared in his eyes. He knew very well that the boat wasnât slow. When its speed reached an unimaginable level.., it was impossible to differentiate between fast and slow.
What could be decided was no longer oneself, but⦠a reference.
Father Wang, who seemed to have sensed Wang Baoleâs thoughts, didnât turn his head. Instead, he spoke calmly.
âYouâve only understood a part of it. You can try to understand it again. What exactly⦠is moving?â
Wang Yiyi blinked and suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart. A look of deep thought appeared in her eyes as she scanned the starry sky outside the boat. Wang Baole was stunned. He first looked outside the boat, but he quickly retracted his gaze and looked at the boat he was on, gradually, a look of shock appeared in his eyes.
He realized that the ship he was on had not moved at all from the beginning to the end.
âWhatâs moving⦠is not the ship, but⦠The Universe!âAs he mumbled, Wang Baole raised his head abruptly and looked at Wang Yiyiâs fatherâs back. His heart was already in a state of shock.
He couldnât imagine what kind of realm he had reached⦠to be able to make the universe move in front of him, allowing his speed to reach an indescribable limit.
âThere is a limit to a cultivatorâs speed. Many times, when you realize that you can actually jump out and look at things from a different perspective, you will realize that⦠cultivation is actually very simple.âFather Wangâs voice reached Wang Yiyi and Wang Baoleâs ears.
The former had a confused look in his eyes, as if he didnât understand it yet. However, the latter⦠had a strong glow in his eyes. It was as if a huge door had suddenly opened in his mind.
As it opened, Wang Baoleâs mind trembled. The dao of the five elements shone on his body. The dao of the past and the Dao of the future might have been empty, but at that moment, they had also turned into black and white light that enveloped his surroundings.
The five elements were unimportant.
The past and the future were unimportant.
The Dark Yin and the Yang Sage were equally unimportant.
These were all narrow-minded. True cultivation was..
âEverything in the world is for my use!âWang Baole suddenly raised his head and said in a low voice.
âBecoming the source is the foundation of stepping on the heavens. Once you realize what youâve Said and achieve it, youâve reached the fifth step of cultivation.âFather Wang turned his head, he looked at Wang Yiyi, who was still in a daze. He sighed in his heart. Then, he looked at Wang Baole with admiration in his eyes.
âWhat about the sixth step?âWang Baole asked immediately.
âThe sixth step?âFather Wangâs gaze was deep as he looked into the distant void.
âEvery mighty figure who has reached the fifth step has a different sixth step. Some create the universe and set their own six, seven, eight, or nine steps from the dimension. They are flashy and flowery. I donât like them
âSome transform into a world, with protection as their dao heart. Although everyone is present and only he disappears, as long as his story is spread, he will always exist, live in the past, and cultivate endlessly
âSome use extinction as their source, and if all things are not destroyed, their dao will be incomplete. However, the more incomplete they are, the more they want to reincarnate and continue their pursuit. Naturally, they will walk further and further away
âThere are also some who use karma to enter the myth. Contrary to the past, they live in the future, with no beginning and no end
âWhat about the Emperor?âWang Baole thought for a moment and asked.
âThe Emperor?âHis father smiled.
âIf we were to compare our universe, which was formed from countless universes, to a table, some people would study how to create the table, some would study the past of the table, some would study how to destroy the table, and some would study the future of the table
âThen, the Emperor would like to become the table, solidifying it so that researchers can not study it, and the exterminators can not be exterminated. Those who occupy the past and future would be chased away by the emperor. At the same time⦠he would like to devour these people and become a part of himself.â
Wang Baoleâs eyes narrowed. After a moment of silence, he could not help but ask the last question.
âThen, senior⦠What About You?â
