Chapter 1374: 527: Heaven is about to bestow a great responsibility on this person! The legacy of two great True Immortals_2

“The White Lotus Fire of Good Fortune has become even more formidable now. Those karmic hindrances and Red Lotus Fire enveloping Shenxu should also pose no challenge to remove…”

Chen Dengming allowed the phoenix-shaped Jade Talisman to immobilize the flesh and treasures of the Phoenix Cry Dao Monument, then swiftly flew toward the distant Shenxu.

…

A moment later.

It took Chen Dengming the strength akin to that of nine bulls and two tigers to finally rid Shenxu of the Karmic Red Lotus Fire that plagued him.

The main issue was that Shenxu was maniacal and oblivious, failing to understand that Chen Dengming intended to disperse the Karmic Red Lotus Fire for him, and he consecutively employed the Stasis Technique twice, immobilizing Chen Dengming.

Fortuitously, unable to use his killing moves due to the restrictions of the Karmic Red Lotus Fire, Chen Dengming managed to aid him without further jeopardizing his own safety.

As the final strand of Karmic Red Lotus Fire was consumed and transformed by the White Lotus Fire of Good Fortune, Chen Dengming observed the resentful and raging faces of the Ghost Immortals within the Karmic Fire, faces that resembled those once enthroned by the God Celestial Court, filling him with a chilling awe.

Shenxu was indeed deeply mired in karmic hindrances.

With so many karmic hindrances afflicting him, corroding his past achievements as a True Immortal, and even the Dao Domain of the God Celestial Court having collapsed, it was remarkable he survived the calamity of the ages, much less restored his former pinnacle state.

Now that Chen Dengming had completely purged the Karmic Red Lotus Fire, Shenxu, no longer screaming in agony from the burning Karmic Fire, stood stunned in place, his frenzied eyes gradually regaining focus, and a glimmer of lucidity.

He surveyed his surroundings, clarity growing in his gaze, the horrific and domineering pressure emanating from him intensifying. Suddenly, his eyes fixed upon the distant Heavenly Dao within the Chaos. He burst into laughter, his body trembling lightly.

“Gao Tian, oh Gao Tian, you truly are lofty, awakening to clarity a step ahead of me, avoiding the Karmic Fire and resolving yet another calamity of the Ancient Region.

It seems you still outmatch me in this game; the missing variable of your ancient chess game finally reveals itself after countless ages…”

“So the former name of the Heavenly Immortal was Gao Tian…”

Chen Dengming felt a stir in his heart and began to silently retreat.

The gaze of the Heavenly Dao within the Chaos was now opaque, on the verge of a deeper slumber; its aura weakening as if Chen Dengming’s intervention had further drained it, tipping it closer to decline.

At the sound of Shenxu’s laughter, the Heavenly Dao in the depths of Chaos opened its weary eyes to utter these words.

“Not enough… Still not enough… Not enough…”

“Not enough…?”

Shenxu fell into contemplation, furrowed brows deep in thought, seemingly unable to grasp the profound implications of ‘not enough’ given his long state of confusion.

His gaze suddenly shifted toward Chen Dengming.

Remaining vigilant, Chen Dengming had already retreated to a safer distance. Seeing Shenxu regain some lucidity and look in his direction, he immediately bowed respectfully.

“Elder! Junior Chen Dengming pays respects to you, Elder. Thank you for your assistance in repelling foreign invaders!”

“Foreign invaders…”

Shenxu turned to look at the flesh and other items fixed in mid-air by the phoenix-shaped Jade Talisman, his arrogant expression turning to a smile as he said nonchalantly, “They are merely from an egg of fire birthed by a Phoenix that I, the god, once rode. Following the great calamity, it attained some achievements by seizing the fortune of new Dao avenues. Yet, it forgot its ancestral ties. Its death is insignificant!”

Hearing these words, Chen Dengming was inwardly shaken. After regaining clarity, Shenxu’s arrogance and authority closely matched the images Chen Dengming had once witnessed.

Just then, from the depths of Chaos, the tired voice of the Heavenly Dao resonated once more.

“Shenxu, cease boasting of past bravery. Once, even you were terribly scorched by the Phoenix’s Five-Color God Fire, yet you fail to mention that.

Now, this egg of fire incites disaster—each stroke preordained. To all beings of the universe, this is hardly a blessing. We will all be drawn into it… Whether we survive this new calamity is no longer in our hands…”

Upon hearing this, Shenxu frowned, then cast a spell to divine the future. His gaze revealed astonishment, but soon, perplexity crept back into his eyes as if there remained questions in this world beyond his calculations and comprehension.

As confusion deepened in his gaze, suddenly he shook, his eyes regaining a trace of clarity, and he looked up at the Heavenly Dao, scoffing.

“Gao Tian, it appears your Heavenly Calculations indeed surpass my Divine Insights. Have you already divined certain secrets of the future?”

In the depths of chaos, the Heavenly Dao remained silent, yet suddenly two bright azure pillars of light, formed by the solidified will of the Heavenly Dao, shot forth from its eyes, heading straight for Chen Dengming’s.

Chen Dengming’s heart stirred, and he did not dodge, allowing these two beams of Heavenly Will to hit him directly in the eyes.

In an instant, his mind felt like it was overwhelmed by a massive, terrifying stream of information, so much so that his brain struggled to cope at first.

Chen Dengming didn’t hesitate to activate the Star of Heavenly Heart and Open Gate, entering a state of expanded consciousness to receive this vast and complex barrage of information.

With just a bit of sorting, he realized that this flood of information contained all the insights of the three paths—fortune, longevity, and life—from the Heaven Immortal Dao Orthodoxy, and even included two grand Immortal Techniques of Heavenly Dao: the Age Echo and Heavenly Dao Reincarnation.

Chen Dengming was shocked in his heart, as he hadn’t expected the Heavenly Dao to impart its teachings so thoroughly at this moment.

In this instant, as the inheritor of the Heaven Immortal Dao Orthodoxy, he seemed to have completed a handover process, a changing of the guard with the Heavenly Dao of yesteryears.

This step was one not taken by the First Ancestor Longevity Dao Monarch of the past, nor by those of Qu Shenzong.

Shenxu, witnessing this, was greatly astonished, but soon a hint of madness crept across his arrogant face. With a wild laugh, his eyes suddenly burst forth with a shocking divine radiance, propelling a forceful divine intention straight towards Chen Dengming’s eyes.

“Gao Tian! No matter what you have calculated or what choices you make, this god will make the same choices as you. You will not shake me off, and even if we fall together, this god is willing to gamble with you!!”

Boom!!!——

A powerful surge of divine intention along with Incense Faith Power forcefully rushed into Chen Dengming’s mind, and also into his Incense Faith World.

This was an information stream as immense as the imprinting of the Heavenly Dao, abruptly crammed into Chen Dengming’s brain.

His eyes bulged suddenly, blood spewed from all his orifices, and his brain felt like it was about to burst from the two terrifying streams of information, swelling with unbearable pain, sinking into semi-consciousness.

The divine intentions contained a vast inheritance of insights from the Divine Immortal Path, even including techniques like the Stasis Technique, Divine Fire, and Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.

“Ah!——”

Even someone of Chen Dengming’s mental fortitude could not help but let out a painful scream, feeling like his brain could not withstand the relentless assault of information, as his consciousness grew chaotic amidst the deluge of it.

Shenxu, this wild lunatic, seemingly disregarding whether others could withstand his actions, his mad conduct hardly seemed like an attempt to impart teachings but more like an attempt to kill him.

However, this was also indeed a tremendous opportunity; to not withstand it would mean missing a chance of a lifetime.

Must withstand, even if unable to withstand!

And it’s not possible to not withstand!

Chen Dengming let out a long howl, his body bursting with dazzling white light, as the Heavenly Dish Nine Stars above his head simultaneously appeared, while within, Human Disc Eight Gates opened all at once. Using the Human Disc to determine the Heavenly Dish, matching their corresponding hexagrams, they began to whirl rapidly.

At the same time, as he performed the hand seals, his lifespan rapidly depleted, turning into streams of nourishing energy, and in combination with the Phoenix True Blood, quickly healing his brain’s damage.

He even began to adaptively remodel the structure and capacity of his brain to cope with the massive information influx.

At this moment, Chen Dengming’s brain was repeatedly damaged and repaired, becoming ever more perfect and powerful, unceasingly absorbing the inherited insights from both the past True Immortals, the Heavenly Dao, and Shenxu.

This was truly accepting the transmission of the Dao Orthodoxy, and the most direct way of inheriting it, a great fortuity.

But such an immense fortune was insurmountable by mere mortals, containing an amount of information that might surpass tens of billions in an instant.

With Chen Dengming’s Taoist Body, already one of the strongest beneath the Supreme Daoists, akin to a stone head.

But even a divine brain sculpted from such a stony material was initially unable to cope, needing various methods to assist in accepting this windfall.

In the distance, Dongfang Huayuan and Qu Shenzong, upon seeing this scene, were both dumbstruck and their spirits trembled, feeling initially envious to now somewhat fearful.

The two former True Immortals, faced with danger, simultaneously transmitted their inheritances; truly, “Heaven tasks the great with responsibility,” uncommon folks cannot embrace such roles, only Chen Dengming can…
