"Chen Hua, are you joking?"
Upon hearing this, before Liang Yi and Su Youyi could react, Qinglian, who had just taken a sip of tea from Zhou Ruanxian, spat it out, looking at Chen Hua in disbelief.
From that expression, Liang Yi felt that if it weren't for the presence of others, Senior Qinglian would have reached out to touch the master's head to see if it was feverish.
Everyone present, except for Senior Qinglian, was shocked. Even Feng Luoshu, who had been silent with his head down, looked up, casting his gaze under the hood towards Chen Hua.
Even Zhou Ruanxian was stunned in place, apparently having not heard of this from her husband beforehand.
"Do I look like I'm joking?"
Chen Hua picked up the teacup and took a sip, speaking in a calm tone.
"Senior Chen, have you possibly broken through the Tenth Realm!?"
Wan Tinggui's eyes showed suspicion and shock. Could it be that Senior Banished Immortal had made so breakthrough over the past six months, hence his confidence?
Liang Yi, however, knew his master hadn't broken through to the Tenth Realm because in his eyes, his master's level was still 100, never having stepped into level 101, which is the Tenth Realm.
"Not exactly, it's more like I'm half a step into the Tenth Realm. However, this ti, we've already reached a consensus with the Mystic chanism Heavenly Dao."
Chen Hua shook his head. Though he very much wanted to break through that layer of barrier, no matter what thod he tried, he couldn't grasp the slightest clue about the Tenth Realm.
This situation was not unfamiliar to him; it was the sa when the immortal path was severed.
At that ti, cultivators on the Mystical chanism Continent could only cultivate to the Seventh Realm's Great Perfection. If they wanted to break through further, it was as if a lighthouse extinguished, the path ahead was pitch dark, and they could only gropingly explore alone.
Chen Hua faintly sensed that he lacked sothing crucial for breaking through to the Tenth Realm, but he had no idea what it was.
"Mystic chanism Heavenly Dao? Consensus?"
Liang Yi blinked, looking towards Master Ju, uncertain of what the current Heavenly Dao was like.
Noticing Liang Yi's gaze, Master Ju shrugged, indicating he was clueless too, having not served as the Heavenly Dao for many years.
The others also beca spirited. If Chen Hua hadn't reached the Tenth Realm, even sending many people would be to no avail. However, if the Heavenly Dao were to join forces, with Chen Hua's half-step Tenth Realm and Liang Yi's unique domain, it might indeed be possible to bridge the gap between the Mystic chanism Heavenly Dao and the Abyss Will, tipping the battle!
"Only the Tenth Realm can defeat the Tenth Realm. I've put in the effort, but I always feel sothing is missing. So now, we're trying to close the gap between the Heavenly Dao and the Abyss Will as much as possible, letting the Heavenly Dao defeat the Abyss Will, and I've already discussed this with the Heavenly Dao before."
Chen Hua raised a finger, pointing towards the sky.
"In the past six months, although my realm remains the Ninth Realm, I can now clearly perceive the existence of the Mystic chanism Heavenly Dao and can even have basic communication."
"Is such a thing... possible?"
Zhou Yuqing was skeptical, having never heard in history of anyone communicating with the Heavenly Dao.
In cultivators' eyes, the Heavenly Dao had always been an indifferent and heartless presence. As the origin of the Great Dao, nothing in the Mortal World could disturb its existence, yet it quietly maintained the operations of the entire Mystical chanism Continent.
But now, Chen Hua claid he could communicate with the Heavenly Dao, which overturned Zhou Yuqing's understanding.
"In a certain sense, the existence of the Heavenly Dao is sowhat similar to the spiritual power puppets invented by the Artifact Refinent sect; it has no emotions, yet possesses extrely powerful strength, except the Heavenly Dao is at the Tenth Realm."
Chen Hua shook his finger, starting to correct everyone's misconceptions.
"The reason the Abyss Will is currently stronger than the Mystic chanism Heavenly Dao is because the Abyss Will has acquired 'human nature,' whereas the Mystic chanism Heavenly Dao has not. Therefore, I suspect if there are realms beyond the Tenth Realm, human nature is an essential existence."
Master Ju beca increasingly astonished the more he listened; he truly had not anticipated that Chen Hua could realize this point!
He knew he had only ntioned this to Liang Yi, and yet, for Chen Hua to detect it at the Ninth Realm's Great Perfection, it was rather impressive.
"The phrase 'The heavens care not, treating all creation as straw dogs' refers to this. The Heavenly Dao lacks human nature and emotion, thus regards all under heaven equally. But even without human nature, the Mystic chanism Heavenly Dao, when faced with the impending demise of the Mystic chanism World, would instinctively seek to avoid harm and pursue benefit."
"So, during these six months, you've been communicating with the Heavenly Dao..."
Zhou Ruanxian suddenly realized that while Chen Hua appeared to be fishing, gardening, and cultivating his character daily, the aura of harmony with heaven and earth on him grew more intense. Only with an abundant heavenly aura could he attempt to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, which observes the world.
"Of course... I also have a sense of crisis, you know?"
Chen Hua scratched his brow, saying as if it was natural.
Zhou Ruanxian, Fang Zhi, and Zhou Yuzhi had vaguely sensed that what he was doing had another purpose, but Xu Yi and Zhou Zhukong were foolishly believing he was simply cultivating his character.
"However, the Heavenly Dao isn't so unyielding, prideful existence; it had no objections to standing side by side and agreed imdiately."
Chen Hua had initially been a bit worried that, without human nature or emotions, the Heavenly Dao might be stubborn. If another cultivator acted stubbornly before him, he'd have taught them a lesson within monts, but now the entity he's facing is indeed the Heavenly Dao.
