I Stayed At Home For A Century, When I Emerged I Was Invincible

Chu Xuan had full access to the information and plans of the various factions in the Northern Zone, and he knew quite a bit about their secret plans.

For example, there was an evil commander in the evil imperial court who was actually a spy for the Great Qian Dynasty.

More accurately, he was a person from the Great Qian Dynasty who cultivated evil techniques.

Another example was an elder from the Nine Swords Mountain who was a spy for the Great Qian Palace.

Another deacon from the Heavenly Cauldron Mountain was a spy from the Floating Flower Pavilion.

All of the major factions had placed chess pieces and sent spies into their competitors’ ranks.

Even within the Great Qin Dynasty, there was a high-ranking official who was a spy for the Great Qian Dynasty.

There was even an elder from the Qin royal family who was a traitor.

Communication talismans were too convenient. As such, all of the spies used communication talismans to communicate, as it greatly reduced the risk of information leaks.

Before the communication talisman was invented, such detailed information was either transmitted by people in secret, or via trained flying insects, demonic beasts, and so on.

An example of this were the intelligent insects cultivated by the Black Moon Tower.

This method of transmission actually carried the risk of being intercepted, or not reaching its recipient due to an accident midway.

Moreover, there would be delays in the time taken to transmit information.

......

As soon as the communication talisman appeared, it became possible to transmit information in real-time. As long as there was no risk of an information leak, and the communication talisman was not stolen, it was a perfectly safe method of information transmission.

Therefore, all spies used communication talismans to transmit information.

Of course, the communication talismans used were definitely not ones used by regular sect or family members. These were prepared separately and had a high degree of confidentiality.

Disposable communication talismans were still very popular. After transmitting certain confidential information, these talismans would self-destruct immediately after the communication was completed to prevent any possible mishaps. Some forces and organizations preferred to use this type of communication talisman.

No one knew that a certain person had access to it all.

The Heavenly Dao Talisman plan had successfully been implemented in the Northern Zone.

However, it was not easy to expand the plan beyond the Northern Zone to the other zones.

The distance between each region was too large, as each zone was separated by either a vast mountain range or an endless ocean.

One could not rely on human strength to cross these borders. Even Supreme realm experts would easily encounter dangers and die along the way.

Only Heaven realm experts had the ability to cross zones.

The nine zones were not only populated by humans, demons and monsters. There were other races residing in the border areas between zones.

There were many experts among them.

However, in terms of overall strength, they could not compare to the three major races.

To communicate between zones, forces usually used a zone-crossing array formation.

Zone-crossing array formations were extremely difficult to establish, and they were mostly set up by ancient powerful experts. On the surface, the Northern Zone did not possess a zone-crossing array formation.

However, it was unknown as to whether there were any remnant zone-crossing array formations in some of the ancient ruins.

Even if there were, these were not something that ordinary forces could utilize.

The zone-crossing array formation of the Northern Zone had been destroyed by the human Divine realm expert before the Great War against the demons. This was done to delay the reinforcements from the humans of the other zones.

Only then would he have the chance to turn the tide of the crisis and rise to the position of the Northern Zone’s human king.

However, it was still possible for those from other zones to come to the Northern Zone.

For example, Xiang Xing had mistakenly entered a great zone-crossing array formation and arrived at the Northern Zone and Southern Region.

Chu Xuan was not in a hurry to expand the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan to the other zones. It would make its way there eventually.

As long as the other zones began to use the communication talismans, the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan in that zone would begin.

The most important thing now was to increase his own strength.

One could not be considered invincible in the nine zones unless they entered the Dao realm.

“Your in-name disciple Ren Changhe has comprehended the Dao of Yin and Yang. The cycle of life and death allowed him to break through to the Divine realm. You have been rewarded with 500 years’ worth of cultivation.”

The system’s reward suddenly arrived.

Ren Changhe had broken through to the Divine realm?

It was a little faster than expected. He had surpassed the Buddha Nanwu and had become the first person under Chu Xuan to break through to the Divine realm.

Buddha Nanwu was also about to break through.

Chu Xuan received the reward.

His cultivation level, which had just reached the fifth level of the Divine realm, was now only half a step away from the sixth level of the Divine realm after receiving the 500-year cultivation boost.

Given Chu Xuan’s current cultivation speed, even without another system reward, he would be able to break through to the sixth level of the Divine realm within half a month.

He was one step closer to the Dao realm.

At present, Chu Xuan spent all his time on cultivation, except for his daily search for Dao realm experts through the Dao-seeking mirror.

It could be said that he was extremely hardworking.

Without any new members joining, the Great Dao Communication Group became relatively quiet. The most active ones were still Hu Tai and Ying Kong.

The others would occasionally participate in the discussions.

The three Daoyuan realm experts rarely participated.

To Dao realm experts, a year or two passed quickly. It would be over in the blink of an eye while one comprehended the Great Dao.

Chu Xuan paid special attention to Ying Kong because he was the weakest among the group. Ying Kong was extremely grateful that he was able to receive the attention of a big shot like Chu Xuan.

He was extremely excited.

It was precisely because of this that Chu Xuan would occasionally use Ying Kong to clarify matters regarding the Dao realm by asking him questions. Ying Kong would always straightforwardly answer everything he knew.

Therefore, Chu Xuan learned a lot about the Dao realm through his discussions with Ying Kong.

For example… about Daoyuan.

Daoyuan were eras. From the beginning to the peak to the end, this long period of time was known as Daoyuan.

The peak of Daoyuan the last time was different from this Daoyuan. Although they were on the same path, there would still be some differences.

How long did a Daoyuan last? It was not fixed. The shortest was no less than a billion years.

Chu Xuan was speechless when he heard that. How long had these two big shots lived if they had been around for two Daoyuan?

They were truly old monsters.

Ying Kong did not know how a Daoyuan would end. He also did not know what would happen when a Daoyuan ended.

All he knew was that when a Daoyuan ended and the world entered a new Daoyuan, the laws of Heaven and Earth would be reborn and reorganized. There would be great changes.

Chu Xuan also understood that Ying Kong was, after all, a weak existence in the Dao realm.

It was not strange at all that he did not know anything about how a Daoyuan would end.

Hong Yuanchu, on the other hand, had experienced two Daoyuan, and he was also in the Daoyuan realm. Naturally, he would know about this matter.

Chu Xuan also found out the answer as to where the Dao realm experts were.

They were not in the nine zones, but also in the nine zones.

In the depths of the Desolate Ancient Zone, there was a unique area that was the closest to the Great Dao in the nine zones.

At the same time, there was a barrier between it and the nine zones.

Therefore, it was in the nine zones, but also not in the nine zones.

The Dao realm experts did not appear in the nine zones. That was because if one entered the nine zones and then returned to that unique area, one would encounter a calamity when passing through the barrier.

After re-entering, one would need to spend even more time to dissipate the aura of the nine zones they had accumulated in order to get closer to the Great Dao.

Therefore, when he learned that the Dao realm experts would not appear in the nine zones, Chu Xuan let out a sigh of relief. He could continue to stay in seclusion and slowly become stronger.

Once he broke through to the Dao realm, he would be invincible in the nine zones.

After learning the basics about the Dao realm, it was easy for Chu Xuan to deceive a Dao realm expert like Ying Kong.

Or even Hu Tai or Qing Qing; he deceived them all.

One man, and two monsters, were filled with respect for a big shot like him.

Being able to enter the Great Dao Communication Group was the greatest opportunity of their lives.

Deceiving people was just Chu Xuan’s hobby though. Everything still depended on one’s strength.

He had been comprehending the Stable Dao principle. After his cultivation reached the fifth level of the Divine realm, he already had a faint Dao aura lingering around him.

Chu Xuan felt that he was becoming more and more stable. As expected of the Stable Dao principle.

It suited his personality very well!
