Dao Killer Move --------- The Stars Have Seen Your Deeds; Glorious Heroes Return!
Across the entire Heavenly Court, the various members seemed to have entered a trance.
"Star Constellation what did you do?" Genesis Lotus was slightly warry after Heaven's provocation.
"I've gathered from the Grand Dream Realms all the Dreams related to the members of Heavenly Court." she simply replied.
!!!
Genesis Lotus and Red Lotus were quite shocked, after all, none of them was particularly well versed in Dream Path.
Making them somewhat suspicious, especially after what Heaven had said.
"I didn't separate them from the Grand Dream Realm," Star Constellation clarified, seeing the look of shock and scepticism in their eyes, "Primordial did."
"You met Primordial!" they both exclaimed in shock.
She nodded, "We have much to discuss, let's go somewhere private."
Star Constellation cast a cursory glance toward Heaven, who was staring back at her as well.
It was unknown what Heaven was thinking.
With that, the 3 Venerables warped to the Painting World's Mount Dang Hun.
"Star Constellation what did Primordial tell you?" Red Lotus immediately cut to the chase, "And how can we trust that you have not been compromised?"
Genesis Lotus and Red Lotus needed to be able to trust Star Constellation, as she was the only one holding the whole of Heavenly Court together, more than she knew.
Her will to hold firm for 3 million years has earned the respect and admiration of all Heavenly Court members respect and reverence for her.
It is her legacy of self-sacrifice that gave them the ability to set aside grudges and work for the good of the world, without that belief Heavenly Court wouldn't have stood so tall for so long.
Even Genesis Lotus and Red Lotus put aside their dislike for one another, partially, based entirely on Star Constellation's devotion.
But now they weren't sure, her aura and demeanour had changed significantly, added with her brief period of absentee and Heaven's words loitering in their heads…it was reasonable to cast some doubt.
Add her timely arrival and newly acquired Dao and Dream Path knowledge…it was easy to suspect something was going on, with the excuse of 'Primordial Origin' being unverifiable.
Star Constellation knew of their concerns, she took out her incomplete Dao Fruit in front of both Genesis and Red Lotus, "This is the Great Dao of Divinations, Master Primordial spent over a Million years creating, deducing and refining it."
Showcasing her Dao before it was fully complete and protected from investigation methods meant that Star Constellation was literally putting her Achilles heel in their hands.
"Wow…" Genesis Lotus and Red Lotus were moved, both by the trust and sincerity of Star Constellation as well as the beauty and intricacy of the Dao of Divination.
That was because Star Constellation's Dao Fruit was surprisingly complete!
While they had condensed a Dao Fruit, it was still being slowly nurtured through their Gu and Attainments.
Both Gu and Attainment needed to reach a qualitative change for a Dao Fruit to truly become complete and allow one to become a Dao Emperor!
You can think of the Dao Fruit as a building under construction, the Attainment as the blueprint and the Gu as the workers.
One cannot start building without Blueprints, thus, Attainment is the first thing one needs before acquiring a Dao.
Similarly, once you have obtained the Blueprints it is not possible to start construction without workers, that is where the Gu comes in.
Naturally, higher-ranked and stronger workers make the building complete faster; similarly high ranked and stronger Gu makes the Dao Fruit formation faster.
For example, Genesis Lotus had just acquired enough attainment in the core Paths of his Dao of Creation, he had achieved Great-Grandmaster in the Path of Elements, Grandmaster in Space and Time, which coupled alongside his Supreme Grandmaster in Painting and Wood Path allowed him to touch upon the Dao Fruit of Creation.
In his Aperture floated a spectral illusory Dao Fruit, the Dao Fruit of Creation resembles a miniature planet, with bits of Water, Earth, Fire, Wind, Metal etc all contained within a Space and given movement through Time.
It was as if it was a miniature Gu World in the Genesis Antiquity Era [1] before any living being was around.
But it lacked sustenance, most of it was only illusory images of what should be, but there were some portions that were filled, namely the miniature Trees that are supposed to be on the Earth.
This was because Genesis Lotus only possessed Gu from Wood Path and had very few, if any, for the other Paths.
In fact, in regard to certain elemental Paths, he had to rely on using Rank 7 Immortal Gu!
The Dao Fruit does not require Rank 9 Gu to be completed, but they would expedite the process.
This was Fang Yuan was the strongest below the Dao Emperor's realm, he possessed an unparalleled number of Rank 8 Immortal Gu.
Noone else in history could come close to the fraction of Rank 8 Immortal Gu he possessed alone, not to mention his Rank 7 and 6 Gu which he had an abundance of.
Some Sects and clans don't even have the same number of Immortal Gu as Fang Yuan's Rank 9 Gu collection!
Immortal Gu was just that unique and rare!
Heavenly Court is undeniably the number 2 in the world when it came to Immortal Gu collection, but between the 3 wars and constant battle and death of Heavenly Court members, their reserves had taken a hit.
Red Lotus was in a better position as he possessed both Time and Space Gu, which were the foundational Gu of his Dao, he did not need other Space or Time Path Gu to speed up the process, instead, he lent them to Genesis Lotus.
But even his was nowhere near the same level of completeness as Star Constellation.
"How is your Dao so close to completion," Genesis Lotus asked, "It may even be on par with Fang Yuan's when he first created it, though god knows how complete that thing is now…"
At that Genesis Lotus and Red Lotus sighed.
Fang Yuan had hidden himself too well, he was stockpiling an arsenal of Immortal Gu that any force in the world would dream just to have even 10% off.
Even the Venerables were jealous of the stockpile of Gu that he had accumulated.
Star Constellation explained, "My Dao Fruit was nurtured directly by Master Primordial, who did near the source of all Dao, the Heavenly Dao, using its power he managed to condense parts of the Great Dao of Divination without any Wisdom or Star Path Gu, thus once I added my own Gu it was like a dessert absorbing water!"
!!!
Genesis Lotus and Red Lotus received a shock, "Condensing under the Heavenly Dao itself!?"
They had many questions:
"Why didn't he just complete it then?"
Star Constellation shook her head, "If he had completed it I wouldn't be able to absorb it, it requires immense strength to subdue a completed Dao, only 2 people had succeeded in history; Master Primordial and Reckless Savage Demon Venerable."
"What is that you wanted us to talk about?" Red Lotus asked, noticing that they had strayed off-topic.
Hearing Red Lotus ask that question and Genesis Lotus nod his head meant that Star Constellation had won the trust of the 2 Venerables once again.
"There are 2 things I must tell you," She raised her first finger, "Firstly, when the Grand Dream Realm ends an opportunity will present itself to allow one person to be chosen by the Heavenly Dao itself to be its avatar and ambassador."
….!!!!!!!
At just the first piece of news, Genesis Lotus and Red Lotus were floored.
"The Heavenly Dao is picking an avatar to represent it!?!?!?" Genesis Lotus's mouth was gaping.
"That's not all," Star Constellation added, "It is doing so without Heaven's knowledge which leads to my second point…Earth is waking up."
