Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 229: The Cosmic Starry Sky Is Vast—Countless Geniuses and Monsters Abound!

Chapter 229: Chapter 229: The Cosmic Starry Sky Is Vast—Countless Geniuses and Monsters Abound!

"The Heavenly Dao Origin increased by another thousand. It seems it came from slaying Gu Qianqiu..."

Gu Qingyang glanced at his data panel and saw that the Heavenly Dao Origin had suddenly jumped from five hundred to fifteen hundred, the increase exactly matching that of an eighth-rank consummate powerhouse.

Clearly.

Killing beings from other worlds all results in gaining Heavenly Dao Origin.

This point.

Is not limited to Immortal Extinction Realm cultivators alone.

Gu Qingyang understood.

This advantage belonged to him alone.

The Heavenly Dao can continually devour other Heavenly Daos, thus advancing itself, but this refers to two opposing Heavenly Daos.

At least.

Gu Qingyang had never heard of a Heavenly Dao advancing by killing ordinary beings.

Clearly.

The method of increasing one’s cultivation by slaying beings from other Heavenly Daos and acquiring Heavenly Dao Origin is unique to Gu Qingyang.

As long as he keeps waging war against other worlds, Gu Qingyang can continuously harvest Heavenly Dao Origin to ascend further.

Of course.

The beings below Heavenly Dao contain only a minuscule amount of Heavenly Dao Origin.

The ones that truly hold substantial Heavenly Dao Origin are the Heavenly Dao themselves.

With that in mind.

Gu Qingyang once again directed his gaze toward the Immortal Extinction Realm.

From the previous Ancient Wilderness battle, where many Great Emperor-level forces were defeated and several Emperor’s Soldiers were lost or destroyed, it clearly stirred the slumbering Heavenly Dao.

However.

Gu Qingyang wasn’t worried about the other awakening prematurely.

After all, in the last battle, the Immortal Extinction Realm’s Heavenly Dao was severely damaged. If it awakened prematurely, its strength would certainly be incomplete.

Besides.

He had already reached the eighth rank, and his strength was comparable to ordinary ninth-rank powerhouses. Even when facing the Immortal Extinction Realm’s Heavenly Dao head-on, he wasn’t without a chance.

Nevertheless—

Gu Qingyang currently had no intention of provoking the Immortal Extinction Realm’s Heavenly Dao.

After all.

The Heavenly Dao is unlike any other.

In terms of foundation, the Heavenly Dao truly stands at the pinnacle.

One could say.

Gu Qingyang’s Essence of the Divine Tree is essentially on the same level with the Heavenly Dao.

He could contend against ninth-rank powerhouses at the eighth rank, so the true strength of the Immortal Extinction Realm’s Heavenly Dao at the ninth rank is evident.

"However—"

"The true foundation of the Heavenly Dao should be inferior to mine. After all, I possess the Innate Divine Techniques and Heavenly Dao Spirit Root, allowing continuous growth, which is my unique advantage.

In the residual memories of the Cyan Yang Realm’s Heavenly Dao Origin, it was said that in the Ancient Times, a ninth-rank pinnacle powerhouse had separated from the Cyan Yang Realm seeking further opportunities elsewhere.

It shows that if I reach the ninth rank, my foundation will certainly be much stronger than a ninth-rank Heavenly Dao!"

Gu Qingyang mused.

During the Ancient Times, the Cyan Yang Realm’s Heavenly Dao was indeed a ninth-rank Heavenly Dao.

But since there were powerhouses who left the Cyan Yang Realm, it indicates that the ninth-rank Heavenly Dao’s foundation must be inferior to his own.

After all.

If Gu Qingyang himself stepped into the ninth rank, he was confident of dominating within the ninth rank and might even have the qualification to challenge the rumored immortals of the Immortal Extinction Realm.

And this.

Only referred to just stepping into the ninth rank.

Therefore.

If both were at the ninth rank, Gu Qingyang was confident in suppressing everything, but for now, he needed to wait a little longer.

Anyway, as his reputation spread, the number of followers increased every moment. Even if the Cyan Yang Divine Court remained stationary in the Ancient Wilderness, Gu Qingyang could still silently infiltrate the Immortal Extinction Realm.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingyang turned to look at the simulated combat, where Gu Qianqiu’s name had already appeared among the eighth rank participants.

Gu Qianqiu!

Eighth-rank consummate!

With just a thought, Gu Qingyang entered the simulated combat. This time, he did not unleash the power of his Dharma Body but directly manifested the strength of his own Essence.

In a moment.

Gu Qingyang exited the simulated combat.

"Indeed, Gu Qianqiu’s strength is extraordinary. Even as an eighth-rank consummate, his strength rivals that of a starry sky behemoth of the same rank.

Moreover, this person possesses no special constitution, just an ordinary mortal body. If he doesn’t perish, he will undoubtedly achieve Dao and Emperorhood with a mortal body in the future!"

Mortal Body Achieving Dao!

Even in the Immortal Extinction Realm, such achievements are extremely rare.

This shows just how powerful the talent of Gu Qianqiu truly was.

Unfortunately. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

The other party provoked him over the Ancient Divine Ore and thus met his demise.

Gu Qianqiu’s appearance also made Gu Qingyang realize that the Cosmic Starry Sky is vast and boundless, with countless peerless geniuses. Focusing solely on the Immortal Extinction Realm would only make him seem narrow-minded.

"The Red Blood Dynasty has an eighth-rank consummate powerhouse in charge. There might also be ninth-rank powerhouses existing there; the foundation is likely robust.

But there’s also the possibility that Gu Qianqiu was the top powerhouse of the Red Blood Dynasty’s world.

If I could find where the Red Blood Dynasty is, I might be able to propagate my faith there as the cornerstone for my further advancement!"

Gu Qingyang thought of this with some regret.

If he knew where the Red Blood Dynasty was, he could send a Dharma Body to probe, and even if problems arose, it would only cost a Dharma Body at most.

But the issue was that with Gu Qianqiu’s demise, finding the Red Blood Dynasty’s whereabouts in the vast Cosmic Starry Sky wouldn’t be easy.

Moreover.

Given Gu Qianqiu’s strength, although Gu Qingyang could slay him using a Dharma Body, trying to explore his memories through Soul Search was impossible.

Suppressing an eighth-rank consummate powerhouse, leaving him without the ability to resist, is much harder than killing an eighth-rank powerhouse.

Watching a potential faith foundation slip away, Gu Qingyang couldn’t help but feel a twinge of heartache.

On the altar, divine light appeared.

A piece of golden radiant ore, brimming with rich Dao Rhyme, suddenly appeared before Gu Qingyang.

This.

Is the Ancient Divine Ore.

A ninth-rank supreme material.

Upon first encountering the Ancient Divine Ore, Gu Qingyang could clearly sense its powerful aura; it was the first time he had seen such high-grade material.

However—

Gu Qingyang did not sense any Heavenly Dao Origin from the Ancient Divine Ore.

Normally speaking.

Anything nurtured by the heavens and earth would carry some Heavenly Dao Origin.

Although the Heavenly Dao Origin in materials is sparse and cannot compare to fully formed Divine Soldiers, it is nonetheless present.

But if the Ancient Divine Ore lacks any Heavenly Dao Origin, it implies that the world nurturing the Ancient Divine Ore did not possess any so-called Heavenly Dao Origin.

No Heavenly Dao Origin.

Naturally, no Heavenly Dao exists.

This is the condition of many planets in the vast Cosmic Starry Sky.

It’s not that every planet can nurture a Heavenly Dao; on the contrary, many are barren without the birth of a Heavenly Dao.

Conversely.

Any planet capable of nurturing a Heavenly Dao generally shows traces of life.
