I've Been AFK for Ten Million Years-Chapter 298: I’ll take a small loss, just call me big bro

Chapter 298: Chapter 298: I’ll take a small loss, just call me big bro

"Nine strands!"

Yang Mei Ancestor was shocked.

Nine strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi, could it be true?

For so many years, he had searched the Chaos for so long and only found one strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi, yet Ren Changsheng was offering him nine strands all at once?

One must know, in the Chaos, the most precious thing is the Hongmeng Purple Qi. After all, a common Saint seeking to become a Heavenly Dao Saint must find nine strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi.

"Take them!"

Ren Changsheng waved his hand, and nine strands of Hongmeng Purple Qi flew out. Each of the nine strands was well over ten feet long, and on the Purple Qi, countless Dao and laws were seen transforming, incredibly mystical.

This Hongmeng Purple Qi was exchanged by Ren Changsheng from the marketplace. Not to speak of other things, Ren Changsheng truly did not lack for Hongmeng Purple Qi.

"Many thanks!"

"Many thanks, Dao friend!"

Yang Mei Ancestor trembled as he received the Hongmeng Purple Qi. These nine strands were key to his ascension as a Heavenly Dao Saint.

When he first became a Saint, he had also thought of competing with Hong Jun for the fusion with the Heavenly Dao. But due to Hong Jun’s machinations, he had to leave the primordial land and enter the dangerous Chaos to search for Hongmeng Purple Qi. The hardship he’d endured in the Chaos, only he himself knew.

"No need to be polite!"

Ren Changsheng patted Yang Mei Ancestor’s shoulder. At least at present, Yang Mei Ancestor was the strongest cultivator Ren Changsheng had encountered, and the one with the greatest chance to become a Heavenly Dao Saint. Ren Changsheng also wanted to build a connection with him.

"Many thanks, Dao friend. This is my Sound Transmission Talisman. If there’s anything you need, just send a sound transmission to me, and I, Yang Mei, will definitely come to assist!"

Yang Mei Ancestor handed a Jade Talisman to Ren Changsheng with a resolute expression.

In Yang Mei Ancestor’s heart, Ren Changsheng had already become his best brother.

"Yang Mei, we seem to have clicked instantly. I suppose I’ll let myself be at a slight disadvantage and call you Brother Yang Mei. How about you call me Brother Chang Sheng for life?"

Looking at Yang Mei, Ren Changsheng quipped with a twirl of his eyes.

Ren Changsheng was also thinking of extracting news of the Chaos from this man in the future. Ren Changsheng was well aware that after becoming a Heavenly Dao Saint, he would certainly have to enter the Chaos, and the position of a Chaos Saint was his true goal.

"Brother..."

Yang Mei Ancestor hesitated.

Letting him call Ren Changsheng "Brother" was obviously Ren Changsheng’s way of getting an advantage, but Yang Mei Ancestor couldn’t be bothered to care at this moment. Since Ren Changsheng had even offered the Hongmeng Purple Qi, what was calling him "Brother" in comparison?

"Your junior obeys respectfully, I have met Brother Chang Sheng!"

Yang Mei Ancestor took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Ren Changsheng, his sincerity palpable. Ren Changsheng hurriedly helped Yang Mei Ancestor up.

"Brother, you’re too courteous. I see that it’s not safe for you in the Chaos either. Stay on my Mount Tai for the time being. With me here, your ascension to a Heavenly Dao Saint will be much easier. Moreover, it just so happens that I also am preparing to ascend to a Heavenly Dao Saint!"

Looking at Yang Mei Ancestor, Ren Changsheng said with a smiling face.

A Heavenly Dao Saint was thus recruited. With him safeguarding Mount Tai, who would dare to provoke the human race when he was not around?

"Mount Tai!"

Yang Mei Ancestor paused briefly, then nodded.

Ren Changsheng was right; attempting to achieve the status of a Heavenly Dao Saint was indeed very dangerous, especially alone in the Chaos. Over the years, he had encountered countless crises in the Chaos, but fortunately, he was always able to turn danger into safety.

"Thank you, elder brother!"

Yang Mei Ancestor looked at Ren Changsheng with a face full of gratitude. Ren Changsheng was truly too kind, not only gifting him Hongmeng Purple Qi but also inviting him to Mount Tai. This debt of gratitude was enormous and probably could never be repaid.

As for the Spiritual Treasure he gave Ren Changsheng, that was really nothing. In the eyes of a Saint, a Spiritual Treasure still had some value, but in the hands of a Heavenly Dao Saint, a Spiritual Treasure was considered rather worthless. At least, it had to be an Innate Supreme Treasure to be of any count.

"Let’s enter Mount Tai now, junior brother, after you!"

"Elder brother, after you!"

The two of them chatted and laughed, like old friends of many years.

Chang Sheng was now too lethargic to enter the Chaos to look for the Chaos Origin Divine Stone. With the Chaos Origin Divine Stone from Yang Mei, Ren Changsheng already had enough to forge the Pan Gu Axe.

The Chaos was dangerous. Ren Changsheng decided he would first become a Heavenly Dao Saint. A Heavenly Dao Saint was far stronger than a regular Saint, not just by a little bit.

In the vast expanse of the primordial world, although Ren Changsheng had not been gone for long, several months had passed, and at this moment, nearly ninety percent of the beings had gathered at the base of Mount Tai.

Countless beings were waiting for Ren Changsheng to preach!

Even ancient mythical beasts like Di Jun and Xi He were waiting for Ren Changsheng’s sermon, and so was Luo Hou, a Chaos Demon God.

Time slowly passed.

Three years quickly went by.

At the summit of Mount Tai, Ren Changsheng had not yet returned, but Fu Xi’s face was becoming anxious.

Nuwa had left Mount Tai for such a long time. Initially, he was able to communicate with her through the Sound Transmission Talisman, but in the recent three months, Nuwa had stopped receiving any transmissions. It was as if she had completely vanished within the Chaos, which worried Fu Xi greatly.

Although Nuwa was a Saint, the one who summoned her was Hong Jun Dao Zu. Hong Jun Dao Zu’s strength was far superior to that of an ordinary Saint, and if Hong Jun Dao Zu took action against Nuwa, she would indeed be in danger.

"The Human Sovereign hasn’t returned yet!"

Fu Xi stood up from his meditation mat, looking into the void, and he could hardly contain himself any longer. However, Ren Changsheng’s sermon was about to begin, and now was not the time to leave.

"Junior brother, please!"

"Elder brother, please!"

But just at this moment, two laughing voices came through. Following these voices, Fu Xi’s eyes lit up with joy, and he quickly looked into the void.

Within the void, two figures appeared.

The two who descended were none other than Ren Changsheng and Yang Mei Ancestor. Initially, Ren Changsheng planned to return immediately from the Chaos, but the two hit it off well. Yang Mei Ancestor and Ren Changsheng had had many conversations about achieving the status of a Heavenly Dao Saint.

Such a conversation took three years. Had Ren Changsheng not remembered that he had to preach, it would have been normal for hundreds or even thousands of years to pass.

The beings in the primordial world had no concept of time. Ordinary primordial gods discussing the Dao could take up to a thousand years, let alone Ren Changsheng and Yang Mei Ancestor, who were already at the level of Saints and on the brink of becoming Heavenly Dao Saints.

"Elder brother’s insights into the Dao have truly broadened my horizons. If not for elder brother’s upcoming sermon, I would wish to discuss the Dao with elder brother for a few more eons!"

Looking at Ren Changsheng, Yang Mei Ancestor spoke with an expression of regret that the conversation had to end.

Both had proved their Dao through strength, and their cultivations were nearly equal. However, Ren Changsheng was not from this world, and his understanding of the Dao was uniquely profound.
