Chapter 1290: Chapter 1290, on the DAO
Translator: 549690339
These four words were filled with tremulous sounds, indescribable emotions, and endless grat.i.tude from w.a.n.g Baole’s heart.
There were many people in w.a.n.g Baole’s 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 relations.h.i.+p 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 w.a.n.g’s words, the shock he felt for w.a.n.g 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 w.a.n.g received w.a.n.g Baole’s bow. With a wave of his hand, a bead that contained a soul flew out and headed straight for w.a.n.g Baole. It eventually floated in front of him.
w.a.n.g 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 Qingzi’s 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 pa.s.sed through his soul, it would visibly strengthen his soul.
w.a.n.g Baole had seen such a pearl before. w.a.n.g Yiyi’s 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 w.a.n.g Baole’s 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 Qingzi’s soul.
Such a feat was already shocking, and one could see how important it was.
After staring at it for a long time, w.a.n.g Baole reached out and gently placed the pearl that contained Chen Qingzi’s soul into his palm, fusing it into his world. When he raised his head, w.a.n.g Baole looked at his father, cupped his fists, and bowed deeply once more.
“The stone stele world is not complete. If you want it to be complete, you will need a long period of baptism. Therefore… Your Senior Brother’s 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.”Father w.a.n.g glanced at w.a.n.g Baole, he spoke slowly.
“He needs a more complete world with a more comprehensive dao. For example… my hometown.”Father w.a.n.g turned and walked towards the lone boat. The old ape, the Fox, and patriarch Yue Xing immediately followed, only w.a.n.g Yiyi stood there, looking at w.a.n.g Baole as if she wanted to say something.
“Yiyi.”
Father w.a.n.g’s voice was heard before she could speak.
w.a.n.g 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 w.a.n.g Baole.
“Fatty, are you coming or Not!”
This form of address left w.a.n.g 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, w.a.n.g Baole laughed.
“Is there enough s.p.a.ce on the s.h.i.+p?”
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… w.a.n.g 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 wasn’t 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 w.a.n.g, who seemed to have sensed w.a.n.g Baole’s thoughts, didn’t turn his head. Instead, he spoke calmly.
“You’ve only understood a part of it. You can try to understand it again. What exactly… is moving?”
w.a.n.g 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. w.a.n.g 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 s.h.i.+p he was on had not moved at all from the beginning to the end.
“What’s moving… is not the s.h.i.+p, but… The Universe!”As he mumbled, w.a.n.g Baole raised his head abruptly and looked at w.a.n.g Yiyi’s father’s back. His heart was already in a state of shock.
He couldn’t 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.
“There is a limit to a cultivator’s 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.”Father w.a.n.g’s voice reached w.a.n.g Yiyi and w.a.n.g Baole’s ears.
The former had a confused look in his eyes, as if he didn’t 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, w.a.n.g Baole’s 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..
“Everything in the world is for my use!”w.a.n.g Baole suddenly raised his head and said in a low voice.
“Becoming the source is the foundation of stepping on the heavens. Once you realize what you’ve Said and achieve it, you’ve reached the fifth step of cultivation.”Father w.a.n.g turned his head, he looked at w.a.n.g Yiyi, who was still in a daze. He sighed in his heart. Then, he looked at w.a.n.g Baole with admiration in his eyes.
“What about the sixth step?”w.a.n.g Baole asked immediately.
“The sixth step?”Father w.a.n.g’s gaze was deep as he looked into the distant void.
“Every 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 don’t like them
“Some 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
“Some 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
“There 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
“What about the Emperor?”w.a.n.g Baole thought for a moment and asked.
“The Emperor?”His father smiled.
“If 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
“Then, 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.”
w.a.n.g Baole’s eyes narrowed. After a moment of silence, he could not help but ask the last question.
“Then, senior… What About You?”
