Start with the fisherman

escape!
John didn't know what was going on, but the other party's sudden change of face gave him a very ominous feeling.

But it was too late.

The originally majestic Dharmakaya of Mingwang now gave people a feeling of exploding like fire. Both its speed and strength were more than 30% stronger than before!

boom!
Like a flame exploding, it left a trace of burning flames on the spot. The next moment, the Dharmakaya of Mingwang had arrived in front of the fleeing John.

The Falling Star Blade slashed out like lightning, and the originally golden blade was covered with a layer of flames.

When the fire demon's Dharma body encountered this kind of flame, it was like ice and snow encountering the sun, and it melted in an instant.

Like a hot iron knife cutting into cheese, the Fire Demon's Dharma Body couldn't resist the knife for even a moment.

Swish swish!
In an instant, Cao Ze had swung out dozens of swords, and the fire demon's Dharma body was instantly silenced like a flame extinguished by sticks.

Finally, there was a loud bang and it was completely extinguished.

John looked at Cao Ze, his eyes full of unwillingness.

Everyone is clearly at the sixth level of the Dharmakaya, so why is there such a big gap?

On the other side, Jonas was already frightened out of his wits. When Cao Ze slashed the first blow, he turned around and rushed out of Base No. 3.

Fang Huaijun wanted to stop it, but he was powerless.

When Cao Ze killed John, Jonas had already run several miles away.

Cao Ze did not chase him, but rushed into the group of the few remaining Dharmakaya realm powerhouses in the Great Zhou. Jonas could escape, but these people must die.

You can also earn points by killing these powerful men from the Great Zhou!

Like a tiger among a flock of sheep, there was no suspense at all, it killed one per person with one strike, and one person every ten steps. After dozens of breaths, Base No. 3 was completely restored to peace.

Cao Ze fell to the ground and sat cross-legged. The flames on his body disappeared and then slowly dissipated. However, after the flames dissipated, one could vaguely see that the wound on his chest had not healed, and there was even a faint evil and gloomy flame burning.

He had also consumed a lot of energy after the outburst just now, and the injuries left by John had not yet healed. If Jonas had not been frightened and stayed to fight him, it would be hard to say who would have won.

This battle was undoubtedly difficult, especially when Jonas cooperated with John in a sneak attack, which almost meant life and death.

But the gains were also huge. Killing the sixth-level Dharmakaya warrior brought Cao Ze 2 million points. The remaining one fifth-level Dharmakaya, three fourth-level Dharmakayas, four third-level Dharmakayas, and two second-level Dharmakayas brought him 9.6 million points.

In other words, this battle provided him with half of the points needed for the next upgrade.

It is indeed a gold belt for murder and arson!
Others at Base No. 3 began to clean up the battlefield and repair the island protection formation.

But everyone looking at the figure sitting cross-legged practicing in the center of the island couldn't help but feel awe.

One powerful Dharmakaya level six warrior and more than ten Dharmakaya realm warriors.

For most warriors, they may not have seen so many Dharmakaya realm masters in their lifetime, but Cao Ze killed them all in just one battle.

The Dharmakaya of Mingwang burning with karmic fire has been deeply engraved in the minds of everyone present.

……

Liu Tong galloped all the way and arrived at the destination in less than an hour, covering a distance of a thousand miles.

No combat fluctuations.

Liu Tong's heart sank. He knew that the military force of Base No. 3 could not be a match for the invading Great Zhou team. Now that there was no battle fluctuation, there could only be one result.

He rushed into Base No. 3 without hesitation. If those guys from the Great Zhou had not left yet, let him avenge the warriors of Base No. 3!
However, the expected scene of rivers of blood and corpses everywhere did not appear.

The battlefield had already been cleaned up, leaving only a figure sitting cross-legged on it, apparently practicing.

The rest of the people were moving back and forth in the base, doing their own things, as if the attack mentioned in the message was fake.

Liu Tong's figure flashed and he was already in front of Fang Huaijun. "What's going on?"

"Brother Liu!"

Fang Huaijun bowed and did not dare to be disrespectful. He had seen Liu Tong's strength. After all, martial arts is respected in this world.

"It's a long story, but there are photo beads in the base. Brother Liu can take a look."

Fang Huaijun handed a photo-retaining bead in his hand to Liu Tong.

Half a minute later, Liu Tong's eyes were filled with astonishment. The strength that Cao Ze finally burst out was not much inferior to his. Not long ago, he had broken through to the seventh level of Dharmakaya.

Of course, he knew that the final burst of power of Cao Ze would not last long, but this was already terrifying. His eighth-grade Dharma body did not have this kind of explosive power!

I guess there must be something special about Cao Ze's Dharma body.

Sixth level of Dharmakaya!

Liu Tong murmured to himself that Cao Ze's growth rate far exceeded his expectations. Now it seems that when the land of inheritance is opened, Cao Ze may become the main force!
Without disturbing Cao Ze's healing, Liu Tong looked at another middle-aged man at the fourth level of the Dharmakaya beside him and said, "What did you find? Tell me in detail."

Originally, he was not very interested in this so-called mysterious island. The most precious treasure in this secret place was the monsters here, and the others were just gifts.

But seeing that the Great Zhou was making such a big fuss, he couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"We also recorded some photos, please take a look, sir."

Qiao Yingqi also took out a photo bead and handed it to Liu Tong. Although the communication jade talisman was convenient, there were many things that the communication jade talisman could not explain clearly.

Activate the image-retaining bead, and a picture quickly appears before your eyes.

Those huge human-shaped corpses, like sculptures left behind by ancient giants, stand quietly in various places on the island. Every inch of their skin seems to be carved from the hardest rock. They have not been weathered by the years, but instead appear more vicissitudes and mysterious.

Their height is beyond imagination, with bodies ten feet high, reaching straight into the sky. Some are sitting, some are lying, in various postures, which makes people wonder how powerful they were.

The vines are like the tentacles of time, entwining these giants, both as a restraint and a protection, covering them with layer upon layer of green clothes of the years.

What is even more surprising is that from the chest or head of each giant, trees larger than themselves grow.

These trees have lush branches and leaves, thick trunks, and roots that are deeply rooted in the bodies of the giants, as if they are absorbing the strength and vitality left behind by the giants.

The sunlight shines through the dense gaps between the leaves, casting mottled shadows, adding a bit of vitality and hope to this land of death.

Under these giant trees is a vibrant spiritual grass field. The top-level spiritual herbs in the Blood Refining Realm are vying for beauty and exuding alluring spiritual energy, attracting the attention of all living beings around. Their existence proves that this land not only has a horrific past, but also contains endless treasures and miracles.

Liu Tong's gaze shuttled among these spiritual herbs. Suddenly, he looked towards a place deep in the Giant Forest. There, there seemed to be a spring flowing, and there was a faint blue light flickering around it.

It was a naturally formed area covered with faint fluorescent mosses. These mosses would emit a faint blue glow at night, but during the day they would blend in with the surroundings and be difficult to detect. Even Qiao Yingqi and his companions who were recording the photo beads did not notice it. Spiritual trees, spiritual springs, and shadowy mosses!
Liu Tong whispered to himself, trying to connect the clues together. These scenes gave him a vague sense of familiarity, as if he had seen these things somewhere before.

The content of the video bead was very short. Qiao Yingqi and his companions were hunted down by powerful men from the Great Zhou not long after they arrived on the island, and they had no time to record more content.

Liu Tong replayed the image of the photo bead over and over again, staring at the spring deep in the jungle, trying to awaken the memories deep in his mind.

Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus!
Suddenly, Liu Tong's eyes widened, his heart beat violently, and a name appeared in his mind.

The Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus only grows on the darkest and purest spiritual springs, around which grows a kind of moss that emits a faint blue glow.

No wonder he felt so familiar with it, because he had seen this blue glow before, and it was this feeling that he would never make a mistake!

Although he could only vaguely see the spring and moss from the edge of the image bead, the appearance of these things in this secret realm, combined with the terrifying giants and big trees on the island, showed that this island was not simple.

Gotta check this out!

Liu Tong made this decision without hesitation.

That is the Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus!

That is a treasure that can make the Tao Seed transform and bear Tao Fruit. No one can refuse such a treasure!

For many warriors, the Dharmakaya Realm may be the limit of martial arts, but Liu Tong knows that above the Dharmakaya Realm, there is an even more terrifying and vast Tao Realm.

Those who enter this realm are like immortal gods. They are no longer like the warriors in the Dharmakaya realm who borrow the power of heaven and earth, but truly and completely control heaven and earth!
There are two necessary conditions for breaking through from the Dharmakaya realm to the Tao realm: to forge a Dharmakaya of the seventh grade or above; and to achieve Tao fruit!
Of course, these are only necessary conditions. It does not mean that one will be able to break through to the Dao realm by satisfying these two conditions. However, his master entered the Dao realm with the help of the Phantom Spirit Heart Lotus.

If he could obtain the Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus, he was confident that he could do it too!
According to legend, only by forging a ninth-grade Dharma body and then achieving the Dao fruit can one enter the Dao realm naturally and without any bottlenecks. But over the years, except for the founding emperor of Daqian, he had never heard of anyone else who had forged a ninth-grade Dharma body.

He is an eighth-grade Dharmakāya, and is already one of the people closest to the Dao realm. He must obtain the Phantom Spirit Heart Lotus!

……

When Cao Ze opened his eyes again, three days had passed.

A strong man at the sixth level of the Dharmakaya Realm is not so easy to kill. The fire demon and Medusa's attack posed a considerable threat to him.

"you're awake!"

Liu Tong's voice rang out.

He had already been to the mysterious island and confirmed his guess that there was indeed a Phantom Spirit Heart Lotus on the island, but it was obvious that he could not pick it by himself.

Although he was obviously extremely anxious, he didn't show it at all.

"Brother Liu!"

Cao Ze, who was concentrating on healing his wounds, had no idea that Liu Tong had come and gone before, and was still a little surprised by Liu Tong's arrival.

"Have you ever heard of the Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus?"

Liu Tong didn't have time to exchange pleasantries with Cao Ze and went straight to the point.

Cao Ze was at a loss. Although his cultivation was improving rapidly, he had spent all his time improving it, so it was inevitable that he lacked knowledge. After all, Donghai County was just a remote small county in Daqian, and he certainly had no way of knowing about certain secret matters.

"The Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus can transform the Tao Seed into Tao Fruit!"

Liu Tong said concisely that he believed Cao Ze at least knew what Dao Fruit meant.

"I found two Shadow Spirit Heart Lotuses, and I need your help!"

This was the reason why Liu Tong came back to find Cao Ze. After arriving on the island, he did not find any trace of the Great Zhou people, but found that the island was densely populated with tree people. Among them, there was a tree person equivalent to the seventh level of Dharmakaya, and two tree people of the sixth level of Dharmakaya guarding the Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus.

Coupled with the densely packed little tree people, even if he is skilled and brave, he will most likely die if he acts rashly.

"Why don't you ask for help from His Royal Highness Prince Qi?"

After listening to Liu Tong's explanation, Cao Ze hesitated. With the panel, he could take some risks, but he didn't desire the Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus as urgently as Liu Tong.

"It's too late. The people of the Great Zhou have also discovered the Phantom Spirit Heart Lotus. I'm afraid their people will be here soon."

It was the first time that Liu Tong saw a warrior who was indifferent to the Shadow Spirit Heart Lotus. Even though he was so cunning, he couldn't help but show a trace of anxiety. "When the time comes, you sneak to the Spirit Spring, and I will lead the tree man away. You take the opportunity to pick the Spirit Heart Lotus, and then we will meet up again. How about that?"

if it is like this,
"Let's get going without further delay!"

Cao Ze no longer had any reason to refuse.

……

Outside the Giant Island, on a huge ship, Jonas, the powerful Medusa's Dharmakaya, was as panicked as a frightened child. The knife that Cao Ze used to kill John was like a mark of the devil, deeply engraved in his mind.

terrible!

Those guys in Daqian are so scary!

He had to get out of here quickly.

"You two stay here and monitor the movements of the Daqian strongmen. Report to me if there is anything unusual. I will go back and ask for help."

Jonas prepared to leave here without hesitation, and he did so. After giving an order, he hurriedly left with a few confidants. It didn't seem like they were going to ask for help, but rather to escape for their lives.

"What does this mean, Master Jonas?"

"What else could it mean? You were frightened by the strong men of Daqian. Didn't you notice that Lord John didn't come back?

Those guys who went out with Jonas and Lord John haven't come back yet!"

As soon as Jonas left, the two powerful men from the Great Zhou who were designated to stay behind began to grumble. In this situation, they couldn't help but feel chilled.

A powerful sixth-level Dharmakaya warrior and more than ten Dharmakaya warriors were all killed in Daqian?

The man who asked the question at the beginning shuddered uncontrollably, "They are strong enough to defeat us, so they want us to stay here?"

The other person looked at the person asking the question as if he was caring for a fool, "What else? I'm afraid Lord John is in great danger."

"Then do we still need to get closer to Giant Island and monitor the every move of the powerful Daqian?"

"Surveillance is bullshit, the farther away the better!"

The other man held his forehead with his hand and said nothing, but just steered the ship away from the Giant Island. (End of this chapter)
