Chapter 780: Establishing a Dao for the Yellow Court

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Such was Fate!

An absolute will, an absolute ruler!

With his own Web of Fate, Tang Jie could transmit his will, converting it into a Dao Will and planting it within the world.

Under the Heavenly Dao, Fate was first!

While this was still no easy task, at least Tang Jie saw the path to success.

The reason it wasn't easy was that Tang Jie's Web of Fate was still very crude.

The Web of Fate was a network that linked to every thing and every creature in the world, which was a number too vast to fathom. A single grain of sand might contain tens of millions of Karmas. In the microscopic world, one grain of sand was a world, one flower was a universe.

To plant his Dao Will inside all of them, the Web of Fate had to keep expanding.

As the Web of Fate extended deeper into the microscopic layer, the depth of his Dao Will would also deepen.

For the same reason, as the Web of Fate's granularization level increased, Tang Jie's omniscience and omnipotence would grow.

Right now, as the Web of Fate was still too crude, Tang Jie could only create a giant. To make anything smaller was impossible, as his Web of Fate had not reached this level.

Tang Jie's omniscience and omnipotence were completely established on the Web of Fate.

From this perspective, one could say that Tang Jie's development in the Dao within the Mountain River State Diagram was completely opposite from its development in the Great Stellar Chiliocosm.

In the Great Stellar Chiliocosm, Tang Jie first had to comprehend the Dao, then enter the Dao, then control the Dao, after which he could attempt those potential higher realms that no one had ever reached before.

But here, he started out at the very highest level, the master of the Great Dao. But his Dao was too crude, and like a baby, he could only lurch around until he fully matured. Thus, he had to keep nurturing his Dao and grow more mature in order to get stronger.

The paths of development were completely opposite, but their ultimate goal was the same.

On this path, Tang Jie finally saw a sliver of hope, and he finally understood many things which had left him confused.

Establishing the Dao!

For a cultivator, this was the most important property of a small world. Using the small world as a model, one could feel the Great Dao and its significance, allowing the seeker of the Dao to advance farther on their Dao in the main world.

Two people were trying to find the right path. One of them was blindly fumbling around, but the other had already seen every possible path, thus identifying which path they should take, allowing them to bypass all obstructions and never be misled.

If this foundation had another function, it would be the fact that it was his home court.

If he encountered an enemy he couldn't defeat, he could draw them into the diagram. Unless the gap in strength was truly too vast, the Domain Lord was invincible in their world.

As for the garden for resources, that was just a bonus.

As for the power of a small world, there was no need to talk about it, for now that Tang Jie was at Violet Palace, he no longer had a need for it.

After understanding all of this, Tang Jie truly set off on the long path of establishing the Dao.

He spent some time every day expanding the Web of Fate and then using the web to convert his thoughts into Dao Wills and plant them in the world.

Blasts of air issued from his fingertip. They seemed very simple, but all of them contained his concentrated will, converting into Dao Wills that merged with the world.

These Dao Wills did not belong to any Dao he had comprehended, nor were they among the Twelve Great Daos. His will was being directly converted into a Great Dao and imprinted onto the world.

"All creatures have a limited lifespan, and reproduction is required to continue the species.

"Where there is Life, there is Slaughter, there is Destruction, and there is also Reincarnation, so there is a path to the Nether Domain to exile the spirits of the dead.

"The world is divided into positive and negative, spiritual energy divided into pure and filthy. Pure energy should remain and filthy energy should be expelled, letting the world be peaceful and pure, so there should be a passage to the filthy soil of the Primordial Fog where devils can be exiled.

"All things have a cause behind their existence, and all things are connected. This is Karma. And the entanglement of Karma is Fate."

As Tang Jie spoke, his Dao Wills merged with the world.

Thus, in this world, the laws he drafted became the Great Dao, his will became Dao Wills, and when he spoke, the world would obey. A single thought could overturn the world.

The world underwent a massive transformation.

Grass began to grow on the wasteland, with no need for the power from He Chong's formation. Tang Jie's will could resolve everything.

Species began to flourish and expand, gradually spreading to every corner of the world.

Life also began to appear in the barren seas, and the world grew richer and more varied.

Tang Jie linked it to the Nether Domain and the Primordial Fog Domain. As the two great negative planes, they existed to absorb all the filth of the positive plane. It was only when he was establishing this small world that Tang Jie understood their purpose.

The Primordial Fog existed as a giant cesspit. While one could hold one's nose and look down at it, one could not go without it. And the result of linking to it was that the passage would expand every three thousand years, and the devils of the Primordial Fog Domain would counterattack. But regardless of how they counterattacked, they would ultimately have to return to the Primordial Fog Domain.

Tang Jie didn't know if his own domain would run into this situation, but even if the devils of Primordial Fog attacked, he wouldn't be afraid.

Because here, he was invincible.

Perhaps it was for this very reason that so many domains were linked to the Primordial Fog?

If that was the case, didn't that mean that every domain had a Domain Lord?

Or perhaps this was how the Great Stellar Chiliocosm had come into being?

Maybe even the entire Great Stellar Chiliocosm was like the Mountain River State Diagram, the possession of some great Titan?

Tang Jie didn't know.

But he knew that this possibility was very real.

But he was just an infant taking his first steps on the path of the Domain Lord. He still needed many years to develop, comprehend, and reach the end. Perhaps only then could he comprehend its true secrets.

Thinking this, Tang Jie suppressed his questions and continued to weave his Fate, excitedly playing around with the world in the palm of his hand.

If one wanted to establish the Dao, one needed laws.

He gave his world a name: the Yellow Court.

Establishing the Dao for the Yellow Court!

In the Yellow Court World, he constantly plucked at the strings of Fate, performing various experiments. Just like back in the Verdant Cloud Domain, he was creating life and destroying life.

He created various miracles, countless coincidences, and innumerable disasters.

A storm of bizarrities swept up the world, and all sorts of strange incidents began to take place.

What decided how the world changed was no longer power, but a single person's imagination.

The world could be as strange as he imagined it.

This pushed the world to the brink of collapse, disasters occurring more frequently than before the Dao had been established, but they were instantly wiped away.

A tsunami could be there one second and then gone the next, and what was an ocean today could be dry land tomorrow. A land of flames could be turned into a valley of ice, Yin and Yang interchanging, cold and hot switching, and in the middle of this sudden change of temperature, a wooly mammoth could be forever frozen in ice.

The topography of the world also became more complicated, gaining plains, hills, deserts, swamps, ice mountains, plateaus, and so on.

Tang Jie was so engrossed in creation that there was even a phase where he began recreating Earth.

With a wave of his hand, the earth cracked apart into giant plates that began to slowly drift.

The intense fluctuations in the earth's crust and the more varied climates meant that most of the gigantic creatures died, and smaller creatures flourished in their stead.

Life began to move toward smaller forms, beginning a long process of evolution. Some creatures even developed the ability to sense disasters via Fate, due to living in this era of disasters.

Time went by quickly.

A hundred years passed.

In these one hundred years, Tang Jie had completed the vast majority of his modifications to the world.

The entire world was brimming with vitality.

Even He Chong had to admit that what Tang Jie had done in one hundred years had far surpassed what he had done in the last few centuries.

The Great Dao had begun to take shape, and the world had laws and restrictions, making everything orderly.

At this moment, Tang Jie knew that the time for his duel had come.

He knew that it was time to leave.

He had lived together with Xu Miaoran for one hundred years, and he had also established the Dao in the Mountain River State Diagram for one hundred years. These one hundred years of cultivation and one hundred years of leisure had been very fruitful.

After isolating himself from the world for one hundred years, it was finally time to step back into it.

There were still many things he needed to do in the thriving world of the Great Stellar Chiliocosm.

Today, seated in the Infinite Palace, Tang Jie glanced at the transformed world below and said, "A wheel in my hand to pluck the strings of Fate! Let all the world be in my hand!"

A small golden wheel formed in his hand, and spinning within it were the utmost principles of this world.

He placed this wheel in the air and said, "I have to leave for a while. You will take control of this Heavenly Dao Law Wheel. If you need anything done, you can do it through the wheel. Of course, if you want, you can also comprehend the principles I implanted in the world through the wheel."

He Chong said, "But this Dao will be your Dao, yes?"

Tang Jie nodded.

"In other words, no matter how much I comprehend or how deeply I comprehend it, I will never be able to surpass you, and with a single thought, you could even strip away all of my power, correct?"

"You still want to surpass me?" Tang Jie asked.

He Chong smiled. "I know that I probably won't be able to surpass you for the rest of my life, but there's a difference between having a small chance of surpassing you and having no chance. If I do not comprehend your Dao, then even if I can't surpass you, at least I'll preserve for myself that tiniest sliver of hope. But if I do learn it and comprehend it, walking upon the path you have drawn out, then this hope will be gone for the rest of this life. A person cannot be without hope. I have survived while being imprisoned by you precisely because of this sliver of hope.

"Thus, I will not learn your Dao!" He Chong firmly replied.

Tang Jie was somewhat taken aback.

He hadn't expected He Chong to think this way.

But he also had no rebuttal to He Chong's argument.

If he didn't comprehend, at least he could keep something for himself.

If he did comprehend, his everything would belong to Tang Jie.

This was He Chong's reason for refusing. He didn't want to surpass Tang Jie, only keep a little space that he could consider his own.

Tang Jie was suddenly enlightened.

He suddenly realized that if the Great Stellar Chiliocosm really was the creation of some supreme existence, didn't that mean that someone who comprehended its Daos would never be able to escape the palm of that existence?

As this thought flashed through his mind, Tang Jie blurted out:

"The Parting Classic goes against the Dao!"
