Chapter 2959: Comprehension: Quasi Heavenly Dao Smashing Books
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Emperors sword was meant to make whoever was struck by it experience the ravages of time all at once, effectively accelerating the aging process to the point where theyd show symptoms of dementia.
After being hit by that sword, Song Shuhangs consciousness began to drift.
At that moment, his spiritual awareness split into two.
One part synchronized with the Sages Eye, which received data from the Heavenly Emperor, refining and relaying it back to Song Shuhang.
The other part, influenced by the power of time, floated higher and higher, like he was intoxicated.
Song Shuhang felt like his mind was clear, but he couldnt control his drifting spiritual awareness.
After floating for a few seconds, the power of time, influenced by the Age Sword, served as a bridge that connected Song Shuhangs consciousness with that of another Song Shuhang from a different frequency.
It was the Old Tyrant Song attached to Daozis back!
Seconds later.
Song Shuhang entered a familiar dreaming state.
But this time, it was different from the past.
This time, the dreaming was actually a dream within a dream.
And the subject of this dream within a dream was none other than Daozi.
The entry point into this dream was when Daozi ascended to become the 8.5th Heavenly Dao!
Within the dream.
Daozi floated at the connection point between the Core World and the real world.
Below was the Ancient Heavenly Court Fragment, fused with the Core World, and the Heavenly Emperors Dao was attached to Daozi.
Song Shuhangs vision synchronized with Daozi as he ascended to become a Heavenly Dao.
As soon as they synchronized in the dream, Song Shuhang vaguely sensed Daozis subconscious resistance true experts possess the ability to perceive through time and space, and they could sense Song Shuhangs dreaming state.
Daozi, who was in the process of ascending to the 8.5th Heavenly Dao, was indeed a true expert among experts. Naturally, he could sense Song Shuhangs presence.
However, that resistance was only momentary. Then, Daozi began to cooperate, even going so far as to open his state of mind to Song Shuhang.
Clearly, Daozi had recognized Song Shuhangs identity.
Song Shuhang had strong ties to the Confucian Sage, Yunquezi, the thirteen Confucian Tribulation Immortals, the Fairy of Creation, the Golden Lotus World, and Venerable Henghuo though despite these connections, he was destined never to become a part of the Confucian sect.
After recognizing Song Shuhangs identity, Daozi, under the circumstances, naturally opened the door for him.
This shows how important connections are in cultivation.
With strong enough connections, even the Heavenly Dao could endorse you, share their glory and experiences, and maybe even help you ascend.
Within the dream.
Song Shuhangs vision was synchronized with Daozis as he sat on the Emperors Throne, slowly ascending while overlooking the myriad worlds.
The view of the Heavenly Dao encompassed all worlds in an instant.
Among them, Song Shuhang recognized Earth, then the Beast Realm, the Dream World, the realm of the creditor Shadow Lord, and finally, his Tyrant World.
After scanning these, Song Shuhang or rather, Daozis gaze landed on Su Clans Sixteen.
Previously, Su Clans Sixteen had lowered her own tribulation to assist Daozis plan to ascend as the 8.5th Heavenly Dao, lending him a hand.
So, naturally, after Daozis ascension, he had to repay this favor.
As an ascending Heavenly Dao, all Daozi needed to do was glance at Su Clans Sixteen, and the thought of gratitude would cause the laws of the myriad worlds to respond.
A surge of power, akin to what one would receive after giving a Saintly Lecture, fell upon Su Clans Sixteen, enhancing her luck and merit.
The merit from an ordinary Saintly Lecture wasnt particularly strong. Every time Song Shuhang lectured, the merit he gained was several times that of a regular Saintly Lecture.
However, the merit Su Clans Sixteen received was just the beginning. Once Daozi fully ascended, that merit would increase several times over.
Helping the Heavenly Dao ascend is equivalent to achieving (boundless merit), and the merit that comes from this is immeasurable.
Moreover, the merit itself isnt the most important part.
The most important part is the Heavenly Daos gratitude contained within the merit essentially, its a powerful buff.
From now on, every time Su Clans Sixteen faces a tribulation, the Heavenly Tribulation will acknowledge this buff and give her a pass.
After seeing this, Song Shuhang felt a sense of relief deep in his heart.
With this, Su Clans Sixteen would no longer need to worry about future tribulations. Even after Daozi steps down as the 8.5th Heavenly Dao, this buff will remain in effect.
Unless the next Heavenly Dao bears a grudge against Daozi and deliberately cancels this Heavenly Daos buff.
After settling Su Clans Sixteens karma, Daozi continued to ascend from the throne.
During this time... the attached Song Shuhang vaguely heard a voice in his ear.
This seemed to be the scene where Old Tyrant Song whispered into Daozis ear.
Song Shuhang couldnt make out what Old Tyrant Song was saying.
However, he wasnt in a hurry to find out. After all, he would be the one saying it in the future, so there was nothing to be curious about.
After finishing his whisper, Daozi suddenly exploded with rage, shattering the void with a book.
In the dream, from a first-person perspective, Song Shuhang clearly sensed Daozis technique of smashing the void with the Confucian Scriptures!
*I wonder if I could pull that off too?* Song Shuhang thought, his mind suddenly racing.
When Daozi shattered the void, he was still in the process of becoming a Heavenly Dao, in a proto-Heavenly Dao state. At the moment, Song Shuhangs main body possessed the Immortal Fat Whale Golden Core plus the pseudo-immortal mode.
The two were worlds apart in terms of power, but their statuses bore some similarities.
Song Shuhang carefully replayed every step of Daozis move in his mind, simulating it...
A few moments later, taking advantage of the dreaming state, he successfully grasped an attack technique Proto-Heavenly Dao Book Smash!
This is a temporary name.
Later, he would change the name to something more like the Heavenly Emperors Age Sword, enhancing its gravitas.
With the Confucian Scriptures he now held, should he ever face a formidable enemy, he could unleash a proto-Heavenly Dao level book smash attack right to the face!
As he pondered, Daozi in the dream had already obliterated the Void Guardian and the Stellar Doom.
Daozi continued to ascend.
Finally, he officially made contact with the Heavenly Dao.
The immortal laws began to reshape Daozi.
*Boom!*
In an instant, the dream-state Song Shuhang felt like his brain was about to explode.
The Immortal Fat Whale Golden Core in his life-bound dantian swelled like a pufferfish, vigorously bouncing.
In a split second, Song Shuhangs consciousness elevated to an unprecedented height.
His vision exceeded the limitations of the myriad worlds, rising above all immortal beings!
