Chapter 1583: Chapter 1473: Resonance of the Great Path!

“Haha, Lv Zhong! What bravery! I accept your challenge! Since you have dared to issue a duel against me, then Old Hongjun must not interfere—”

The Creator of Light and Honor let out a hearty laugh, looking into Lv Zhong’s eyes as if staring at a dead man.

A mere Second Order Sage, even with several Tao Artifacts at his disposal, how could he possibly be a match for a Venerable Sage-level powerhouse?

This foolish boy actually relinquished the protection of Master Hongjun. If he didn’t seize the chance to crush Lv Zhong, he’d truly be an idiot!

“Unacceptable! Ye Weiyi, how shameless can you be? To stoop so low as to bully the weak? If you have any courage, come at me instead…” Hongjun was enraged, and had the Heavenly God Nine Palaces Guard not been present, he would have acted without hesitation.

Seeing Master Hongjun so adamantly defend him, Lv Zhong felt deeply moved in his heart.

In this moment, he truly came to respect his master.

Lv Zhong gritted his teeth, suppressing his overwhelming emotions, and respectfully performed a great bow toward Master Hongjun. He knelt briefly before rising tall and declared firmly, “No, Master! Please forgive your disciple’s boldness this time. This matter originated because of me, and it must also end because of me. Let me handle the Creator of Light and Honor! If I don’t issue this duel, my conscience will never find peace for the rest of my life. In that case, my path of cultivation will stagnate forever. So, though this battle concerns life and death, though I may face complete annihilation, it is a confrontation I must undertake on my own!”

By the end of his words, Lv Zhong’s tone resonated with heavy traces of Dao Rhythms!

As his speech fell, the Great Path faintly permeated this realm of divinity, harmonizing with the sound of Lv Zhong’s voice!

Clearly, this was the all-encompassing Dao itself giving its silent acknowledgment!

“Junior Brother, don’t…” Nuwa Holy Mother immediately panicked, crying out in alarm.

The Heavenly Teacher Master quickly flashed to Lv Zhong’s side, “Junior Brother, you… you’re mad! How could you act so impulsively…”

The Supreme Laojun, Primordial Heavenly Lord, and the two Buddha Sages all shook their heads, their faces filled with worry.

While they had previously been annoyed at Lv Zhong for dragging the Pangu Universe into a bitter rivalry, and had even secretly blamed him for putting all living beings in Pangu Universe in jeopardy of a cosmic-level battle, now seeing him stepping forward to exclude their universe and face the Creator of Light and Honor alone, they couldn’t help but feel admiration. The resentment in their hearts dissipated significantly.

However, this battle…

Suddenly, anxiety arose within them!

With the Dao itself resonating, they could no longer intervene on Lv Zhong’s behalf. They knew well that even their master, Taoist Ancestor Hongjun, could not voluntarily intervene now!

Heavenly God Nine Palaces Guard leader Kongji Venerable Sage swept his gaze deeply across the Creator of Light and Honor and Lv Zhong, before he let out a cold snort: “Hmph! I care not for the grievances between you two, but you are absolutely forbidden from fighting within this Sacred Immortal Ascension Platform’s domain. Otherwise, whether you are a peerless Sage or an indomitable Venerable Sage, you will be permanently banished by the Divine Alliance, forever barred from entering the Sacred Immortal Ascension Platform or any of the universes under the Divine Alliance…”

“Rest assured, Kongji Venerable Sage, I will give you this face and will not destroy this brat within the Sacred Immortal Ascension Platform. Hahaha…” The Creator of Light and Honor grew increasingly elated upon seeing Lv Zhong’s challenge provoke the Dao’s resonance. He turned to Lv Zhong, sneering, “Since you challenge me to a duel, then you must not hide within your Spatial Dao Device.”

Lv Zhong pondered for a moment before finally nodding, “Agreed! However, let us set our battle to coincide with the opening of the Haoyang Divine Palace in a thousand years’ time. How does that sound?”

“Agreed!”

The Creator of Light and Honor nodded decisively. Since Lv Zhong had promised not to retreat into his Spatial Dao Device, he gladly approved the timing of the duel.

The Creator of Light and Honor was convinced that within the span of a mere thousand years, Lv Zhong could not possibly elevate his strength to the Venerable Sage Realm.

He didn’t even believe Lv Zhong could advance to the Third Order Sage Realm within such a short period.

A thousand years were but the blink of an eye to him.

For a Sage, every rank and minor realm progression typically required calculating in hundreds of millions of years.

No matter how extraordinary Lv Zhong was, it would be impossible for him to ascend five or six large realms in just a thousand years to reach the Venerable Sage Realm.

This was absolutely implausible!

As long as Lv Zhong remained below the Venerable Sage level, the Creator of Light and Honor was confident he could suppress him.

Meanwhile, as Lv Zhong observed the confident and arrogant expression on the Creator of Light and Honor, his heart was filled with cold laughter.

Indeed, Lv Zhong himself did not believe he could ascend to the Venerable Sage Realm within a mere thousand years.

However, he was certain that he could further refine the Great Annihilation Pearl, Nine Xuan Cold Dragon Ice Coffin, Gu Long Knife, and other Tao Artifacts.

His promise not to hide within the Great Annihilation Pearl did not mean he could not wield its spatial power.

Moreover, while a thousand years seemed brief for other Sages, for Lv Zhong, he could stack time by millions of times, effectively extending it to ten billion years.

With such a vast span of time, Lv Zhong could dedicate himself to cultivation, absorb and refine the essence and Yuanshen Energy of Venerable Sages. Although it might not guarantee an ascension to the Venerable Sage Realm, it might allow him to reach the sixth rank of Sage Realm.

At that time, with the aid of the Nine Xuan Cold Dragon Ice Coffin, Gu Long Knife, and other Tao Artifacts, Lv Zhong might well possess the strength to fight.

These hidden advantages were precisely why Lv Zhong dared to promise not to retreat into the Great Annihilation Pearl.

“I warn both of you: do not break out into a fight here, or our Divine Alliance will relentlessly pursue the instigators. Furthermore, the Nine Rising Divine Platform will only remain accessible to you for fifty years. Make good use of this time to comprehend Void Clear God’s Dao Realm upon ascension—”

Kongji Venerable Sage and the Heavenly God Nine Palaces Guard shot indifferent glares at the Creator of Light and Honor and Lv Zhong before immediately waving their sleeves and departing.

As the Heavenly God Nine Palaces Guard withdrew, the Creator of Light and Honor cast a disdainful glance at the furious Taoist Ancestor Hongjun before being the first to rush toward the towering Enlightenment God Stele atop the Nine Rising Divine Platform, spreading his consciousness to connect with the divine Dao intent contained within.

Protected by the warning from the Heavenly God Nine Palaces Guard, he was unafraid of Hongjun and the others attempting to ambush him. Moreover, once he began resonating with the divine will of the Enlightenment God Stele and entered the realm of comprehension, the stele itself would automatically safeguard all who connected with it.

Precisely because of this, the Creator of Light and Honor felt invincible, indifferent to the discontent of Taoist Ancestor Hongjun.

“A petty person reveling in their temporary triumph!” Watching the Creator of Light and Honor brazenly commence his Dao comprehension without a care for the gathered Sages, the Heavenly Teacher Master muttered faintly.

Taoist Ancestor Hongjun gazed deeply at Lv Zhong, his expression exceptionally complex. It took him a long while to stride up to Lv Zhong and speak, “Lv Zhong, you were impulsive. Issuing this duel to Ye Weiyi was unwise! With me here, the Creator of Light and Honor could never fully unleash himself or wage a life-and-death war against the Pangu Universe! A battle between two universes would only end in annihilation; he wouldn’t dare take that risk. His arrogance was merely a calculated attempt to bait you into acting alone—”

“I understand well!” Lv Zhong replied with a carefree smile. “Master, please set your heart at ease. Your disciple may be headstrong, but I am not foolish. This battle, I may not necessarily lose—” (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Starting Point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets.
