In seclusion_2 Chapter 1261: 490: Venerable of the Ancient World!

Two hundred years!

In seclusion_2 With a shining fortune star, not only can one dispel misfortune and lock onto low-probability events that are favorable, but they can also achieve excellent effects in seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster.

Such as this sudden heavenly retribution, it can also largely mitigate most damage by leveraging the fortune star.

...

“Nephew Chen, you are the first since your Ancestor to truly comprehend the divine skill of Heavenly Luck Dao, and surpass him in skill.

Truly a talent bestowed by heaven,” said the voice of Qu Shenzong from not too far away, carrying a hint of emotion.

“It’s just sheer luck,” Chen Dengming replied with a smile.

Qu Shenzong shook his head, unconvinced, “Even being lucky is a form of strength, Heavenly Luck Dao requires precisely that good luck.”

Chen Dengming nodded, he indeed considered himself lucky.

In fact, Ancestor Lu Xiu had partially grasped the Heavenly Luck Dao before him, understanding the first Dao’s Intention of Blessing protection, which could anchor the position of the Heaven Blessings Hall and even move it.

But the Ancestor passed away too early, and he indeed surpassed his predecessor.

He had now understood the second Dao’s Intention of Luck Shines High, enabling him to preliminarily control Heaven Blessings Hall.

“What did your divination just now reveal?”

At this moment, Qu Shenzong asked seriously.

Just then, Chen Dengming had employed “Heaven’s Will Divination Skill,” using heart calculation to replace heavenly calculation, divining the heavenly secrets and peering into potential crises in the Four Seas and Four Regions, to prepare and adjust for the future.

Chen Dengming calmly said, “For the next two hundred years, there should be no issues.

I can only glimpse this far, but if we attempt to ambush Buddha Guile, it is fraught with peril—I saw a vision of bloodshed.”

Qu Shenzong was startled, “Bloodshed?”

“Mm.”

Chen Dengming paced with his hands behind his back, frowning, “This bloodshed seems to fade over time, which should mean the better prepared we are, the lesser the danger…”

Qu Shenzong nodded, “If that’s the case, we should make more preparations.

As long as no Ancient Calamity descends on the Four Seas and Four Realms within two hundred years, and no external regions invade, we at least have a chance to buffer.

I can stabilize my realm more, and you can further cultivate to Fulfilled God Transformation and understand the third Dao’s Intention of Supreme Fortune of Heavenly Luck Dao!”

Chen Dengming shook his head slightly, “I have a feeling that our time is running short; these next two hundred years may be our last opportunity to prepare.

I wanted to probe further into future fortunes and calamities, but that would agitate Heavenly Dao even more.

Also, in the clouds, a black dragon appeared and obscured my vision, reminiscent of the Immortal’s Chessboard we once saw at Rotten Cole Mountain!

I have a bad feeling and did not continue to provoke Heavenly Dao to delve deeper into its secrets…”

“If you say so, then what you did was right,” Qu Shenzong assented gravely.

The secrets of heaven must not be revealed, the deeper one probes into the heavenly secrets, the closer they must get to the will of Heavenly Dao, provoking it.

And once the secrets of heaven are truly disclosed, they may also trigger a chain reaction, causing the future to deviate.

Thus, deciphering heavenly secrets should also incorporate some ambiguous messages for conjecture and guesswork.

With what Chen Dengming had said, Qu Shenzong also felt the pressure.

They may only have two hundred years left to prepare.

Two hundred years, enough for him to stabilize his realm, but not enough to find a suitable Mustard World outside the domain and lay the foundation for He Dao.

Two hundred years, could Chen Dengming understand the third essence of Heavenly Luck Dao, Supreme Fortune?

That would be challenging!

After some discussion, they decided that, for safety, Chen Dengming should still rely on Heavenly Time to cultivate.

Even if this meant consuming a vast amount of Immortal Spirit Qi, it was a necessary sacrifice to extend their preparation and enhancement time.

Fortunately, this sort of sacrifice would gradually improve after Chen Dengming achieved He Dao, merging the Dao Domain into the Broken Heavenly Immortal Realm, and establishing the basis for He Dao.

For once the Broken Heavenly Immortal Realm had a master again and became the new site of He Dao, it would regain vitality and stabilize gradually alongside the cultivation of the Taoist Master, no longer collapsing but growing stronger together.

The news that Chen Dengming was about to start a new round of seclusion wasn’t hidden from other members of the sect like He Yingyu.

Upon returning to the sect, natural intimacy followed between the old married couple after such a long separation.

The next day, they hastened to cultivate once more.

Chen Dengming felt their recent desires were increasingly unsatisfied, but after cultivating together, their respective cultivations had improved significantly, and the breakthrough of their Nascent Soul’s advanced stage was not far off.

Before they had even risen from bed, the formation outside their cave residence was triggered.

Su Yanyan personally came to visit, accompanied by Xing Huiguang and others.

When Chen Dengming and He Yingyu emerged from the cave dwelling, Senior Sister Su’s sharp gaze instantly discerned what the two had been up to, her veiled face seeming to blush slightly.

“Senior Sister Su, Brother Xing, and Brother Jiang, what brings you here…”

Chen Dengming was surprised to see Su Yanyan and others arriving in tandem; he was particularly surprised that Jiang Jian, whom he hadn’t seen for many years, had also come.

Regarding Chen Dengming’s unique and somewhat chaotic form of address, the group exchanged helpless looks.

Because of Chen Dengming’s insistence on this form of address, they also discarded old customs among themselves; even though Su Yanyan had attained Divine Transformation, they still referred to each other as brothers and sisters, with formal titles reserved only for public settings to show respect.

While they felt the kinship of many years, it was always somewhat awkward.

Su Yanyan smiled slightly, “We heard you’re going to Ghost Shade for seclusion again, and who knows how many years it will be before we see each other again.

So we came to see you together, hoping the next time we meet, all of us will still be here.”
