Chapter 403: Expansion Of The Nine Zones
“Your disciples have emerged victorious and obtained a supreme treasure. Their fate and cultivation levels have soared. You have been rewarded with 100 Dao principles.”
After obtaining the treasure and splitting the loot, his disciples fled to avoid being hunted down. Incidentally, Ying Kong also obtained a portion of the special Dao principle, which he planned to fuse into his own Dao principle to strengthen it and hopefully advance to the fifth level of the Dao realm.
Not long after, news that Ding Yue and the others possessed chaotic energy spread, and many Dao realm experts started to search for them. Some even worked together.
However, Ding Yue and the others had already escaped without a trace.!!
The nine zones were vast, so finding someone was easier said than done.it was easier said than done to find one.
Moreover, Ding Yue and the others were very good at hiding.
Not long after, a huge mountain suddenly rose up in the Southern Zone. There seemed to be chaotic energy lingering on its peak.
Once the news spread, countless Dao realm experts flooded the area, and another great battle began.
At this time, one region in the Central Zone was incorporated in the Heavenly Dao laws, as well as another in the Easter Zone.
The expansion of the nine zones continued as new battlefields and treasure lands appeared, showing no signs of stopping.
This meant that the current nine zones was still a long way from its initial or peak size.
Chu Xuan was uncertain as to whether the Desolate Ancient Zone was also expanding.
On the other hand, the space where Hong Yuanchu and the other Daoyuan realm experts were residing underwent such changes. This space was the place closest to the Great Dao, and also the place where one had to pass through to leave the nine zones.
In ancient times, it should have been the place where the powerful existences of the immortal, God, and demon clans lived.
It was called the Heavenly Domain, and apart from the residences constructed by the various Daoyuan realm experts, it appeared to be very desolate and empty.
Chu Xuan wondered how big the nine zones had been at their peak. Had the backlash caused by the three races back then caused the nine zones to shrink by this much?
Had their plan caused great damage to the nine zones?
A large portion of the treasure lands and ancient battlefields had been left behind by the three races before they were expelled from the Great Dao.
These naturally contained many treasures, but were also contingency plans that the three races had prepared in case they failed.
As the nine zones expanded, the Heavenly Dao laws would naturally expand and improve alongside it.
The Heavenly Dao Divine Tree, the Spirit Devouring Flower, had benefited greatly from this, and its strength increased rapidly.
In fact, it took many of the treasure lands and ancient battlefields for itself.
This was also true for the Sky-shaking Golden Roc, and the Heavenly Spirit Cat, which were now Heavenly Dao Divine Beasts.
Chu Xuan could not help but think of Huang Long and the other creatures of the Great Dao.
Were they derived from the Great Dao, or did they become creatures of the Great Dao due to other factors?
All three of the creatures of the Great Dao in the group chat had been born during this Great Dao era, which seemed rather suspicious.
The timing was too coincidental.
In any case, if the Heavenly Dao Divine Tree and Divine Beasts were created or appointed by Chu Xuan, it was likely that something or someone had done the same for the creatures of the Great Dao.
When the Great Dao had been born, there had been no living beings. In that case, how had the creatures of the Great Dao appeared?
Chu Xuan had a couple of guesses.
First, Huang Long and the other two were once powerful cultivators who had schemed against the Great Dao. After their failure, they were suppressed by the Great Dao and fell. However, since their plan did not completely fail, they eventually turned into creatures of the Great Dao.
