The World that Tao Rules, Volume 14, page 19
Even Xue Dongliu had not expected that this Supreme Envoy Lei Ling would turn out to be a direct descendant of the Thunderstorm World Lord.
As the face of the Thunderstorm World Lord appeared, Jiang Yun immediately felt a terrifying pressure enveloping him, making him unable to move, only able to watch as the lightning formed by Lei Ling's Dao Spirit Incarnation flew farther and farther away.
However, just as the lightning looked like it was about to fly out of the sky within the prison, it suddenly stopped.
Then, it astonishingly fell back down at an even faster speed.
In that way, it seemed like Lei Ling changed his mind, not wanting to escape anymore, but to stay and have a decisive battle with Jiang Yun.
This sudden change not only surprised Jiang Yun, but even the face of the Thunderstorm World Lord showed a hint of astonishment.
Just as he was about to intervene to stop the lightning, Jiang Yun, who had been busy devouring the thunder with his Thunderbolt Dao Body in the air, though equally suppressed and unable to move, suddenly flashed a golden light in his eyes, opened his mouth abruptly, and forcefully sucked in.
"Swish!"
Lei Ling's Dao Spirit Incarnation was directly sucked into Jiang Yun's Thunderbolt Dao Body in this way.
With the integration of the lightning, the Thunderbolt Dao Body suddenly regained its ability to move, as fast as lightning, and re-entered Jiang Yun's body.
This highly dramatic change made the Thunderstorm World Lord silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke up, issuing a roar filled with anger, "Kneel down, and face your death!"
These simple four words, each like a mountain, harshly struck Jiang Yun, causing his body to bend continuously.
In front of the Thunderstorm World Lord, swallowing his direct descendant's Dao Spirit was like giving him a slap in the face, a challenge and humiliation to him!
This made the Thunderstorm World Lord very angry, and he was not willing to let Jiang Yun go.
He not only wanted to kill Jiang Yun, but also wanted Jiang Yun to die kneeling!
This was also humiliating for Jiang Yun.
As the words were spoken, Jiang Yun's whole body bent like a shrimp, his knees truly kneeling on the ground.
However, with only one knee on the ground, his other knee was still a few inches above the ground, trembling violently.
"Kneel!"
The Thunderstorm World Lord's voice sounded again, and two heavy blows fell hard on Jiang Yun, causing his other knee to finally kneel on the ground.
Jiang Yun's teeth were almost crushed, even though he had used all his strength, he could not resist the pressure contained in the voice.
And this was the first time in his life that he was forced to kneel to someone!
Suddenly, the Thunderstorm World Lord stretched out a finger and pointed it towards Jiang Yun, who was already kneeling.
It was as if he wanted to crush an ant!
At that moment, Jiang Yun was helpless, but just as the finger was about to touch him, a blood tower with only eight levels remaining suddenly appeared above his head and blocked the finger.
"Boom!"
The clash between the blood tower and the finger created a deafening sound.
Not only the prisoners, but even the entire Blood Path World could hear this loud noise, causing fear among all living creatures.
They had just recently witnessed numerous thunder calamities and remembered the name of the Supreme Envoy Lei Ling.
Now, with this terrifying sound, they couldn't help but worry if the Blood Path World was going to be destroyed.
Inside the prison within a prison, the eight-level blood tower collapsed, and the face of the Thunderstorm World Lord twisted and blurred.
Other than Jiang Yun, the rest of the people like Hou Muran and Jin Cunyao were also knocked unconscious by the shock.
Clearly, the outcome of the clash between the two powerful beings made both of them uncomfortable.
Seeing the Thunderstorm World Lord's face about to disappear, his eyes locked onto Jiang Yun as he said, "I will remember you, the one who killed my Thunderstorm World direct descendant. The ten clans will be exterminated!"
"Even if you hide in this Dao Prison, no one can save you. Just wait, we will meet again!"
As the last words were spoken, the Thunderstorm World Lord's face completely dissipated, freeing Jiang Yun from the physical restraints and allowing him to stand up.
Despite feeling hatred towards the Thunderstorm World Lord, Jiang Yun knew that the difference in power between them was too vast, so he decided to temporarily set aside his anger.
After a while, Xue Dongliu's voice slowly sounded, "Truly, the Thunderstorm World Lord has become much stronger than before. That one strike nearly depleted all the power I've accumulated over the years!"
Although Xue Dongliu had saved him, Jiang Yun couldn't forget that he had recently attempted to possess him. Ignoring Xue Dongliu's words completely, Jiang Yun lifted his leg and began to walk towards Fusangzi.
"Wait!" Xue Dongliu suddenly called out, "Are you going to kill that Fusang Tree monster and the demon clan?"
"Well done!"
Fusangzi and Mo Gang, following Lei Ling's orders, behaved badly. Jiang Yun decided not to spare them while they were unconscious. He planned to kill them before they woke up.
However, Xue Dongliu suggested, "Let them live. You may need them later. But other than you, I will erase all memories of this prison from everyone here."
Jiang Yun frowned and asked, "Why?"
"You will understand in the future!" Xue Dongliu chuckled mysteriously. "Don't worry about them now. Focus on yourself!"
Confused, Jiang Yun asked, "What about me?"
"The Thunderstorm World Lord's words are not to be taken lightly. If he said he would destroy your ten clans, he will do it without fail!"
"With his power, he can easily find the world where you were born and destroy it directly!"
"Especially for you, he will not let you go. He might even seek out Dao San the old man and take you away from Dao Prison, locking you in the Thunderstorm World's Abyss of Thunder!"
"By then, even if you could devour The Source of Thunder, you would still endure the ravages of thunder day and night, it would be better off dead!"
Xue Dongliu's words didn't surprise Jiang Yun at all, he remained calm and said, "Xue Dongliu, just tell me what's on your mind, no need to beat around the bush here!"
Jiang Yun's reaction clearly surprised Xue Dongliu, "Oh, aren't you worried or scared?"
Jiang Yun replied coldly, "Will worrying and being scared help at all?"
Jiang Yun understood that Xue Dongliu's words were not meant to scare him, but rather had another purpose.
Considering his current strength, even if he knew these things, he had no way to confront the Thunderstorm World Lord or leave Dao Prison.
"Haha, well said!" Suddenly, Xue Dongliu burst into laughter, "As long as you do as I say, you might still be able to save your loved ones, your homeland, and yourself!"
Jiang Yun didn't respond to him, instead he asked suddenly, "Why did you voluntarily give up taking over my body?"
This was the most pressing question on Jiang Yun's mind. Only by understanding why Xue Dongliu gave up taking over his body could he decide whether to believe his other words.
After a moment of silence, Xue Dongliu finally spoke, "I can't tell you the exact reason, but I can tell you one thing."
"When you understand the meaning of this sentence, you will understand why I didn't possess you!"
Chapter 799: Finding Someone
Understanding the meaning of a sentence would help Jiang Yun understand why Xue Dongliu gave up possessing him. This made Jiang Yun curious and he asked, "What sentence?"
Xue Dongliu's voice sounded, "One Mountain, One Sea, One Tao World!"
Upon hearing these seven words, Jiang Yun's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and a light flashed in his blood-red eyes.
Because this sentence immediately made him think of Mountain-Sea World!
However, just as he was about to ponder further, Xue Dongliu interrupted, "You can think about the meaning of this sentence later!"
"Now, I don't have much time, so let's talk about the matter we just discussed. Do you want to save your loved ones, your hometown, yourself? Do you want to leave Dao Prison?"
Although Jiang Yun still did not understand why Xue Dongliu gave up taking over his body, he was definitely interested in what Xue Dongliu said.
With Jiang Yun nodding, Xue Dongliu continued, "To be honest, your path of cultivation is very unique, and the achievements you have made so far have truly amazed me."
"As a human, you have nine different powers within your body. If I am not mistaken, you must be aiming to nurture nine different Dao Spirits!"
So far, Xue Dongliu was the only one who had seen Jiang Yun's cultivation situation.
Due to the presence of chaotic power inside Jiang Yun's body, no one, no power could see his elixir field. But because Xue Dongliu had previously taken over his body, almost like incarnating as Jiang Yun, he could understand.
It has to be said that even someone as powerful as him, when seeing Jiang Yun's vast elixir field comparable to a world, seeing the heavenly realm composed of nine different powers, and seeing the five Dao Spirits of wood, water, fire, earth, and ghostly energy, he was deeply shocked.
Although Xue Dongliu had revealed the secret of his cultivation to himself, Jiang Yun still did not respond, just listened quietly.
Xue Dongliu then said, "Your idea is very creative. Although I am not sure if it can be achieved, I have noticed your interest in my Blood Crystal before, so I might as well help you fulfill it!"
"I will not only help you nurture the Blood Tao Spirit, but I will also teach you some of my techniques, after all, you are able to use them!"
Helping oneself cultivate Blood Tao Spirit is one thing, but Xue Dongliu actually wanting to teach his technique, that's a whole different story!
A glint of light once again flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes as he asked, "What do you want me to do?"
"Take the Firebird with you, no, put the Firebird into your Demon Refining Pen, and do not let it out before leaving the Blood Path World."
"Then, I will help you and it to go to a place, where you will take the Firebird to find someone!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but ask, "Why do I need to put the Firebird into the Demon Refining Pen?"
Upon entering the prison within a prison, Jiang Yun was separated from Firebird. Although he knew that Firebird had also been captured by Xue Dongliu, he didn't expect Xue Dongliu to want him to put Firebird into the Demon Refining Pen and then take it to see someone.
"Don't worry about why, just do as I say. If you can take Firebird to find that person, not only will he bring you great fortune, but he might also help you leave this Dao Prison and save your loved ones!"
Jiang Yun frowned and asked, "Where are you sending me, and who am I looking for?"
"Hehe, you will know when you get there. As for the person you are looking for, he is my older brother!"
Xue Dongliu's big brother!
Jiang Yun started to understand a little. He realized that after all the talking, Xue Dongliu just wanted him to inform his big brother and then let his big brother figure out how to save him.
However, Jiang Yun still had many doubts in his mind, "How will I find him once I get there? What's his name? What if he's not there anymore?"
"You found me, so find him the same way! And it's impossible for him not to be there! Even if we all die, my big brother will be fine!"
It's clear that Xue Dongliu has a lot of confidence in his big brother.
Jiang Yun knew that his questions were unnecessary. Xue Dongliu must have sent him to another world within Dao Prison.
If even Xue Dongliu was suppressed within this prison within a prison, then his big brother must be facing the same fate.
If he could find the prison within the prison in that world, he would naturally find Xue Dongliu's big brother.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Yun finally nodded and said, "I promise you, but I can't guarantee I'll find your big brother!"
"Don't worry, as long as you do what I say, you will definitely be able to find it!"
Pausing for a moment, Jiang Yun spoke again, "Can you first take me to Golden Path World, and then send me to where your older brother is?"
"Golden Path World?"
Jiang Yun's request puzzled Xue Dongliu at first, but then he suddenly realized, "You lack the Golden Dao Spirit after your Five Elements Tao Spirit, you want to go to Golden Path World to ask Old Golden to help you cultivate the Golden Dao Spirit!"
"You're quite clever! Although it's a bit troublesome, the stronger you become, the more beneficial it is for both of us."
"Anyway, Old Golden can find a way to send you to that place, alright, I will take you to Golden Path World first!"
Jiang Yun's true purpose in going to Golden Path World was actually just to meet Xue Mucheng, without any intention of cultivating the Golden Dao Spirit, let alone knowing who Old Golden is.
But hearing Xue Dongliu's words made him suddenly feel something stir in his heart.
Old Golden is highly likely to be a powerful golden monster like Xue Dongliu.
If you can see him, maybe you can really nurture The Way of the Gold spirit, just like Xue Dongliu said!
"When will you send me away then?"
"Don't worry, once you finish nurturing the Blood Dao Spirit and learn my techniques, you will know how to leave on your own."
"In a while, a big change will happen in the Blood Path World, and the Dao San Palace will send people to suppress it. At that time, you can leave while chaos ensues."
"Although I have given up possessing you, once I help you nurture the Blood Tao Spirit, I will fall back asleep. So, I will temporarily hand over this Blood Path World to you, find someone you can trust for me!"
"Okay, enough talk. From now on, you will cultivate in seclusion with me."
"You are absolutely safe here. I will use my last power to completely seal off this prison within a prison. Not even people from Dao San Palace will be able to enter."
"Haha, although that old man once set the Seven Star Tao Seal on me, he didn't expect to be used by me in the end."
As Xue Dongliu's words fell, his voice stopped, and suddenly, there was a loud noise in the sky above the prison within the prison, and a huge black hole appeared.
From the black hole, a strong pull sucked in Jin Cunyao and the others who were lying unconscious on the ground.
Then, red light beams shot out from the black hole like raindrops, landing all around Jiang Yun, revealing pieces of Blood Crystal!
After the Blood Crystals piled up like mountains, the black hole in the sky suddenly closed.
All the entrances in the entire prison within a prison were reopened and then completely sealed shut, trapping them inside.
As the prison within a prison closed, Hou Muran, Jin Cunyao, and the others woke up in different parts of the Blood Path World, looking confused.
Their memories of the experiences inside the prison within a prison were erased by Xue Dongliu, leaving them puzzled as they returned to their rooms.
Thus, the entire Blood Path World seemed to return to peace.
However, outside the Dao San Palace responsible for guarding Dao Prison, things were becoming unsettled!
Chapter 800: Holding People Accountable
Whether it was Jin Cunyao and the others being taken away, or the piles of Blood Crystals around him, or even the big changes that Xue Dongliu mentioned would happen in the Blood Path World, Jiang Yun didn't pay any attention. He just stood still, not moving at all.
Because he kept hearing Xue Dongliu's words in his mind.
One Mountain, One Sea, One Tao World!
This sentence must be related to the Mountain-Sea World, and Xue Dongliu said it because he saw the Blessed Land in his dantian.
So, is it possible that Xue Dongliu was also born in the Mountain-Sea World, and only after knowing that he also came from there, and turning the Mountain-Sea World into his Blessed Land, did he give up on possessing Jiang Yun?
