Chapter 1115: Chapter 747: Turmoil
Ancestral Dao Realm!
Even in the Dao Palace, true masters of the Ancestral Dao Realm are as rare as phoenix feathers, usually appearing like fleeting shadows, and such figures are not ones you can simply meet, let alone receive guidance from an Ancestral Dao expert.
But now, suddenly four Dao Stones have appeared, and these magnificent Dao Stones are evidently left by an Ancestral Dao expert!
"I must obtain this Dao Stone!"
Wu Yumen decided immediately.
"Wait, the appearance of the Dao Stone is no coincidence, there might be deception!"
Wu Qiuhong promptly warned.
Wu Yumen was also slightly startled, the sudden appearance of the Dao Stone had entranced him, and he almost forgot the matter at hand!
"Ge Hengzi!"
"Here, sir!"
"Go and quell the chaos on the street, and simultaneously secure this Dao Stone!"
"Understood, sir!"
Ge Hengzi immediately took the order, turned around, and stepped out, disappearing from the grand hall.
——
Xiang Beifei stood not far away, observing the battle.
Now his power had reached the Inquiry Dao Realm, and with his control and understanding of Dao, he could completely elevate the Dao embryos on the Dao Stone to another level.
As for the cultivators on the street, driven to madness over the Dao Stone, even disregarding the rules set by the Dao Palace, the main reason lies in his application of the "Respected as a Criterion" ability on the character "Ren".
This means that those whose cultivation hasn’t surpassed Xiang Beifei, once they begin to comprehend the Dao embryos on this Dao Stone, would unknowingly be drawn into Xiang Beifei’s "Respected as a Criterion" ability!
And it was precisely Xiang Beifei’s "Respected as a Criterion" that drove all the cultivators on this street into a frenzy, disregarding even the rules of the Dao Palace!
The appearance of the Dao Stone on the street stirred up a commotion that spread far, drawing in people from other streets who also noticed the anomaly, and they soon became entranced by the Dao Stone suspended in midair.
This Dao Stone acted like a giant signal transmitter, endlessly broadcasting Xiang Beifei’s "Respected as a Criterion" ability into the eyes of everyone who saw the Dao Stone. These people couldn’t resist Xiang Beifei’s power and unknowingly became completely overwhelmed!
"This Dao Stone is mine!"
"No one else better try to take it from me!"
More and more cultivators forgot about the Dao Palace’s rule against fighting within the city, and the scene became completely chaotic!
"Everyone, stop!"
A figure descended from the sky, their voice thundering through the air, exuding a powerful aura that overwhelmed everyone, suppressing them instantly!
Ge Hengzi!
Not everyone knew of Ge Hengzi, but the formidable aura of the Inquiry Dao Realm emanating from him subdued the crowd, as Jingxi City had virtually no Inquiry Dao masters other than those from the Dao Palace. With Ge Hengzi’s arrival, he immediately took control of the situation!
"I am Ge Hengzi, a Dao Envoy of the Dao Palace! This is Jingxi City, and the Dao Palace has explicitly prohibited fighting within the city. Do any of you intend to violate the Dao Palace’s decrees?"
Ge Hengzi scanned the crowd, his Inquiry Dao aura like a tidal wave, suppressing everyone!
Yet Ge Hengzi could suppress their bodies but not their voices. Soon, someone shouted, "So what about the Dao Palace? Do you intend to monopolize this Dao Stone?"
"That’s right! It’s an unclaimed item, not belonging to the Dao Palace! Treasure belongs to those destined for it!"
"Yes, the Dao Palace can’t have it all to themselves!"
Under Xiang Beifei’s influence, these people’s minds had completely forgotten the authority of the Dao Palace, their courage swelling, utterly disregarding the Dao Palace, and more people began to clamor and challenge Ge Hengzi.
Anger flickered in Ge Hengzi’s eyes!
These people obviously had no regard for the Dao Palace, it was simply rebellion!
However, when his gaze inadvertently fell on the "Ren" character Dao Stone, he was suddenly entranced as well!
He too was drawn into the aura of this Dao Stone, and more bizarrely, he suddenly felt—Dao Palace? What a joke! He toiled tirelessly to handle the Dao Palace’s affairs, and yet he had to curry favor with Wu Yumen, offering the hard-won Dao Stones in the end. The Dao Palace was indeed hateful!
Incredible resentment towards the Dao Palace unknowingly formed in Ge Hengzi’s mind, as if the Dao Palace were his mortal enemy, and he wanted nothing more than to tear Dao Palace’s decrees apart with his own hands!
"To hell with the Dao Palace! This Dao Stone is mine!"
Ge Hengzi shouted loudly!
His shout stunned everyone!
Even Wu Yumen and Wu Qiuhong, who had been closely monitoring the situation, turned deadly pale!
Had Ge Hengzi lost his mind?
No one knew why Ge Hengzi would suddenly speak so out of character, but only Xiang Beifei understood perfectly.
[Dao Enforcer: Ge Hengzi]
[Dao embryo: Divine Sense Dao]
[Dao Practice: Beginning of the Inquiry Dao Realm]
[You have comprehended the Dao embryos on the Dao Stone, Divine Sense Value +5674]
The most critical mistake Ge Hengzi made was comprehending Xiang Beifei’s Dao Stone!
Once Ge Hengzi fully grasped Xiang Beifei’s Dao embryos, it was equivalent to allowing Xiang Beifei to partake in his cultivation of the Heavenly Dao Laws, thus Xiang Beifei could effortlessly control Ge Hengzi!
As for Wu Qiuhong and Wu Yumen, although they had also comprehended Xiang Beifei’s Dao Stone, their levels were higher, and Xiang Beifei had not attempted to guide them, as that would take time.
Subsequently, everyone once again fell into madness!
