Chapter 1492: Chapter 1492: Thick Earth Origin



Yulong Pond, an inconspicuous place within the Great Dao World.


On the pond’s surface, a lone boat floated, and a grey-robed man stood upon it, holding a fishing rod, like a stone statue.


Jing Yan arrived near Yulong Pond and at a glance saw the lone boat and the grey-robed man.


The grey-robed man seemed very ordinary, akin to a fisherman among mortals. However, at this moment, a trace of astonishment flickered in Jing Yan’s eyes.


Because he was completely unable to perceive the presence of the grey-robed man.


How powerful was Jing Yan’s Divine Soul? Having undergone the Quenching God Star Tower, Jing Yan always believed his Divine Soul Body should be the strongest below Heavenly Venerate. But now, he couldn’t sense the grey-robed man’s existence within his sight.


If he couldn’t see with his eyes, he would have thought no one was there.


At the same time, Jing Yan was certain that the grey-robed man was the person he was looking for, Elder Xin Qian, the master of Elder Chuo Yan, a prodigy from the same era as the All Paths Venerable who opened the Great Dao World.


The grey-robed man seemed to blend entirely into nature, leaving Jing Yan unsure whether to approach him.


"Forget it, I’ll just wait here."


"Elder Xin Qian surely already knows I’m here. I’ll wait for him to call me first," Jing Yan thought to himself.


Time passed by bit by bit.


This wait lasted an entire year.


During this whole year, Elder Xin Qian remained in the same posture. From the first moment Jing Yan saw him until now, Elder Xin Qian hadn’t moved a single finger. The fishing rod in his hand had never been lifted.


"Come over here!"


At that moment, a hazy voice, without warning, entered Jing Yan’s ears.


Jing Yan was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized that it was Elder Xin Qian calling him over. Jing Yan’s body trembled slightly as he took steps, slowly approaching.


"Your role as the Holy Master of the All Paths Sacred Land is a blessing for the Sacred Land. It is destined by the Heavenly Dao that the Sacred Land shall not perish," Elder Xin Qian said, without turning to look at Jing Yan.


"Senior, you praise me too much!" Jing Yan bowed slightly, somewhat surprised, realizing Elder Xin Qian already knew his identity.


"You found me because Chuo Yan told you, didn’t he?" Elder Xin Qian continued.


"Indeed, it was Elder Chuo Yan who told me. He said, senior, you returned to the Great Dao World and are here at Yulong Pond," Jing Yan nodded.


"Hmm!" Elder Xin Qian seemed to nod slightly.


Afterward, he continued, "Jing Yan, you should return! I will not participate in the war between the All Paths Sacred Land and the Wanbao Divine Hall. Everything in this world has nothing to do with me. Perhaps I will soon leave the Great Dao World again."


"Senior, you’ve misunderstood!" Jing Yan hurriedly said.


"I did not come to ask you to help the All Paths Sacred Land against the Wanbao Divine Hall. Instead, Elder Chuo Yan mentioned that you have a Daoist couple named Man Qing. Although you know I am the Holy Master of the All Paths Sacred Land, you may not know my Alchemy Dao capabilities. I think, perhaps I can be of assistance," Jing Yan continued.


"No need, I am accustomed to Man Qing’s current state."


"To me, whether Man Qing remains as she is now or can recover, it makes no difference," Elder Xin Qian’s voice was calm, without any fluctuation.


At this moment, however, he turned around and looked at Jing Yan.


Jing Yan also saw Elder Xin Qian’s appearance. It was an extraordinarily youthful face, which greatly surprised Jing Yan.


Jing Yan always thought Elder Xin Qian would appear as an old man. Never did he imagine Elder Xin Qian would have such a youthful appearance. Despite the old and wise aura of the face, it was remarkably young.


This statement from Elder Xin Qian also gave Jing Yan a strange feeling. For some unknown reason, Jing Yan felt as if he could sense Elder Xin Qian’s state of mind. This statement seemed like Elder Xin Qian’s true inner thought, not insincere words.


Jing Yan didn’t know what to say next.


"Since you’ve come, it’s a fate between us. I no longer need this thing, so I’ll give it to you as a gift for meeting the descendant of the Great Dao," Elder Xin Qian’s fingers moved slightly, and a yellowish-brown object appeared before Jing Yan.


Jing Yan instantly recognized this yellowish-brown object as the Thick Earth Origin from the Five Elements Origin.


Jing Yan’s emotions couldn’t help but surge violently as he reached out to take the Thick Earth Origin. When he looked ahead again, Elder Xin Qian’s figure was already gone. With Jing Yan’s abilities, he had not detected when Elder Xin Qian left.


"This..."


"Could Elder Xin Qian already be a Heavenly Venerate?" Jing Yan felt a deep tremor in his heart.


He couldn’t believe a God Lord at the God Emperor level could disappear without a trace before him. To Jing Yan, the only explanation was that Elder Xin Qian had already become a Supreme Heavenly Venerate.


"Jing Yan, remember! To become a Heavenly Venerate, one must hold true to their original heart. Only by holding true to one’s original heart is there a sliver of hope in becoming a Heavenly Venerate." Elder Xin Qian’s ethereal voice echoed around Jing Yan.


"Thank you, senior, for your guidance!" Jing Yan bowed deeply.


He stood by Yulong Pond for a while longer before finally taking to the sky and leaving.


This meeting with Elder Xin Qian, the proceedings indeed unfolded differently than Jing Yan expected. Originally, he thought he might meet the woman named Man Qing. Jing Yan thought that if he could restore Elder Xin Qian’s Daoist couple, Man Qing, perhaps Elder Xin Qian would develop goodwill towards him.


However, Elder Xin Qian never let him try. Yet, he was gifted the Five Elements Origin, one of the Ten Great Treasures of the Divine World, and it was the Thick Earth Origin he desperately needed.


Among the five Basic Law Domains, only the Thick Earth Domain had not reached the Ultimate level yet for Jing Yan. With the Thick Earth Origin, perhaps this step could be taken more easily. Once he mastered the five Basic Law Ultimate Domains, he would basically enter the realm of the Divine Emperor.


Looking at the Thick Earth Origin in his hand, Jing Yan couldn’t help but feel excited. He suddenly thought that perhaps Elder Xin Qian gifted him the Thick Earth Origin because he noticed his Thick Earth Domain hadn’t reached the Ultimate level.


This is terrifying!


He hadn’t exerted any Domain Power at all, or used much Divine Power. How did Elder Xin Qian know that only his Thick Earth Domain hadn’t reached the Ultimate level? To Jing Yan’s knowledge, only he knew this fact, not even Gao Feng or Jing Dongxue knew.


"Heavenly Venerate! Elder Xin Qian must be the Heavenly Venerate!" Jing Yan became increasingly certain that Elder Xin Qian was already the Supreme Heavenly Venerate.


"Forget it, I’ll first comprehend the Thick Earth Domain!" Jing Yan’s gaze sharpened slightly, and his figure flickered as he entered the Qiankun Small World.
