Carefree Path of Dreams - Chapter 1165 - Awaken
“In essence, the body of the Great Destruction God is a Dao Ancestor-level array!”
1
Above Planet Stael, Fang Yuan infused his psyche into his incarnations, deepening his understanding of them.
The Great Destruction Dao Fruit not only had immense power, but most importantly, the Great Destruction God itself could accommodate the power of many Dao Fruits with minimal loss.
When a single Dao Fruit contained many Dao Fruit powers, there were sure to be conflicts and loss.
However, the Great Destruction God used the essence of arrays to form a united force.
At its peak, it had the Creator Dao Fruit, two Dao Fruits belonging to its own body, and the Eyeball of Destruction’s and Omar’s Dao Fruit powers for a total of five!

With this strength, it was enough to run wild in this universe.
It should rank near the very top among all the Dao Fruits.
“But there’s no room for further progress. It’s only a crude power accumulation. Five Dao Fruits is already the limit of minimal loss, and it will be difficult to push it beyond the power of ten Dao Fruits!”
Could you imagine how rich and powerful Dao Fruit powers were? How unique?
It had already taken up all of Fang Yuan’s skill to accommodate the power of five Dao Fruits in a single array. If he tried to increase the number of Dao Fruits to the maximum of ten, the dramatic loss in power would not outweigh the gains.
Not to mention, forcibly integrating other powers would unbalance the original system, and even Dao Ancestors would have difficulty bearing this mighty force.
“I’m afraid the path of power accumulation is over… Where do we Dao Ancestors go on from here?” Fang Yuan mumbled as he recalled his extraordinary journey—from the simplest Dream Master to coming into contact with the Mental Demon, then turning into a Demon God and his expeditions in a plethora of worlds.
“In fact, any system of cultivation is a branch under a certain Great Dao… Even the humblest mortal can start from this kind of branch and climb their way up, eventually coming into touch with nomological laws and even a Great Dao!
“After finding your own Dao path, you can be regarded as a true powerhouse. You will then be able to use myriad Daos for yourself… and eventually form a perfect Dao!
“This perfect Dao is like a tree, with its roots in all Great Daos. The brilliant fruit finally borne from it is a Dao Fruit!
“A Dao Fruit is unique and eternal!”
…
Fang Yuan had a feeling that perhaps the Dao path beyond Dao Fruit lay in the Great Cosmological Abyss.
However, the Great Cosmological Abyss contained true nothingness.
Since there was nothing, where would he search for it?
“Could it be that there’s no more room for progress at the end of a Dao path?”
This thought immediately gave Fang Yuan a tremendous sense of fear.
Despite him now possessing power not any less than Dao Ancestor Heaven Rise, even surpassing this existence that had given him the stats window, he still could not see the following Dao path.
“So the end of all Dao paths… is nothingness? All returns to Primordial Chaos?”
Fang Yuan gritted his teeth. “No! There must be a realm beyond Dao Ancestor. Even if no one could ever hope to reach it, I will create it myself…”
Since there was no further path, he would open up his own.
This was how someone seeking the Dao that had taken each step one at a time should be!
“The nothingness of the Great Cosmological Abyss… My thoughts should be correct. If a Dao Ancestor wishes to progress further, they have to be in the Great Cosmological Abyss…”
The Great Cosmological Abyss was a concept that was greater than universes. It was comprised of many universes, and its biggest trait was nothingness.
Almost every Dao Ancestor would have to face the question of how to obtain enlightenment from this nothingness. But unfortunately, no one had ever succeeded in answering this question.
“There are two things that I need to investigate. First, if the power of the Great Cosmological Abyss exists, how to borrow it… Second, how to allow ordinary Demon Gods to traverse the Great Cosmological Abyss!”
The first goal was for his own cultivation, and the second was to help the Huaxia Universe.
Since the Huaxia Universe could produce an existence like Dao Ancestor Heaven Rise, then its level should be slightly higher than the Outer God Universe.
In such a powerful universe, what kind of tribulation was it facing that it could cause Dao Ancestors to die?
In such a high-level war, perhaps there was a chance of progressing beyond Dao Ancestor! Furthermore, as a person from the Huaxia Universe, Fang Yuan did not mind lending a hand.
“I can leave the research of the Great Cosmological Abyss traversing technique to the Creator. I still require resources though… This can be handled by the Uyguklais and the chosen ones!”
Once he had this thought, the many chosen ones on Planet Stael became laborers. Looking at the various missions asking them to conquer other planets and plunder their resources, they wanted to cry but had no tears left to shed.
…
To Dao Ancestors, the existence of time was absolutely meaningless.
Fang Yuan was immersed in the profound mysteries of the Great Cosmological Abyss, completely oblivious to the passage of time outside.
Only the Creator was still mechanically carrying out his plan, recording the progress on the core mission window that only he could see.
“Black Iron Calendar Year 509: Conquered Planet Red Tower…”
“Black Iron Calendar Year 555: Chosen one Shaun 502 discovered a rare mineral vein—Black Hole Stone…”
“Black Iron Calendar Year 560: The Black Hole Stone vein was attacked. Casualties of three chosen ones Above Abyss. The Great Destruction God was dispatched to deter the Outer God Riug…”
…
“Black Iron Calendar Year 750: The Uyguklais conquered the Blue Rainbow Galaxy…”
“Black Iron Calendar Year 779: The Creator Space birthed its first Netherheaven Demon God— Whitney Abbot 23! ”
…
“Black Iron Calendar Year 999: A new Netherheaven Demon God—Raymond 208! To date, there are a total of 327 Demon Gods and 33 Netherheavens!”
…
Black Iron Calendar Year 1000: A fully armed research vessel approached the shores of a certain island.
“After the cataclysm, we humans are finally able to continue our progress into the deep sea!”
With a face filled with pride, a professor led his students. “Thank the great Creator. With his blessings and the efforts of the chosen ones, the Ruined Continent has been completely cleaned up and returned to the embrace of humanity once again…”
Although the Ruined Continent and deep sea housed all kinds of strange and mutated life forms, they did not amount to much before the chosen ones that were becoming increasingly stronger.
Even though the majority of the powerhouses above Demon God were out conquering other planets, there were still some chosen ones who were willing to contribute locally.
Most of the monsters remaining on Planet Stael originated from the contamination of the Outer God progeny.
Although these monsters were very ferocious and powerful in the past, the strongest among the chosen ones were now Netherheaven Demon Gods. They were on the same level as the Outer God progeny and naturally did not fear these remnants.
The only things hindering humanity from exploring the deep sea were the Outer God progeny entrenched in the deep sea that had formed from the contamination of the Outer Gods themselves in the last war.
But recently, one of the thirteen heroes had eliminated the last of the Outer God progeny that dwelled in the deep sea, and all of Planet Stael had finally returned to the control of humanity—if the true master did not say anything about it.
“So, is this the Island of Rebirth?” A few graduate students looked around curiously. “It doesn’t seem to be any different from other islands.”
“No! According to my research, this is the center of this sea area’s magnetic field!” The professor shook his head and looked at a man with an unruly expression that was wearing an open shirt, boardshorts, and a straw hat and holding a toothpick in his mouth. “We’ll be counting on you for our safety.”
“Relax. As long as I’m here, there won’t be a problem!” the man replied confidently.
As a chosen one who had advanced to the Demon God level, he was naturally confident.
In fact, if he was not in a good mood due to narrowly passing the last nightmare mission and successfully advancing to Above Abyss, he would not deign to protect a research fleet, even if the country asked him to.
The professor looked around with binoculars and made his decision. “Prepare to lower the boats. We’ll have a look around the island…”
A few boats lowered, and the crowd rowed toward the shore.
“This kind of island might still have demonic remnants… Truly bold!”
The man with the toothpick twitched his lips in disdain. Red flames erupted in front of him and transformed into a hound whose entire body was aflame.
“You watch over them. Make sure nothing happens!”
Afterward, he laid down on a sun lounger, his expression relaxed and peaceful. “Blue sky, white clouds, and warm sunshine… I really hope this moment will last forever. If there were no damned missions from the Creator, it would be even better…”
…
“Okay, let’s continue!”
The professor’s expression relaxed when he saw the fire hound approach. He then led the students further inland.
The island was not that big. After walking for a while, they arrived at the center of the island.
There, tens of impressive stone pillars stood tall and imposing, seeming to reach into the heavens, leaving the group momentarily awestruck.
“This kind of formation is definitely not naturally formed. Is this a relic of a civilization?”
The professor was very experienced, and instead of being intimidated by the pillars, he approached them.
At the center of the stone array, he saw a statue that seemed to be a human figure sitting cross-legged.
“This statue should be the style of the White Continent during the middle-ages of the Black Iron Calendar…” the professor said to himself. When he tried to approach it, he suddenly heard a few cracks.
In front of him, the statue started to crack from the top, and a figure emerged.
“Have about five hundred years passed?” Fang Yuan said to himself after waking up from his meditation, completely ignoring the ants around him.
“Extraordinary!” exclaimed one of the researchers.
But the next moment, they watched in terror as the flaming guard hound whimpered and vanished.
“Leave!” A voice sounded in their minds. Eyes unfocused, researchers and laborers alike returned to the ship in a zombie-like manner.
Even the Demon God-level man had the same vacant expression as he helped sail the ship away from the island.
Only an entire day and night later did he suddenly awaken. As he looked at the ship full of zombie-like people, his face revealed horror. “How is this possible?”
After reaching the Above Abyss realm, he thought that he could flaunt his power on the planet, but only now did he realize that he was nothing more than a joke!
