Chapter 44 True Dao
The coldness around Zes only grew heavier. Inside of the memories he had inherited from immortal Calmlight, there was a formation similar to the one the patriarch used. If the formation the patriarch used was only half as powerful as the one in his memory, it would be quite some trouble for Zes.
But this did not waver Zes determination to destroy this impudent demon. In fact even if he would give up on killing him, it wouldn't change anything. The fight was too intense and the only possible outcome was the death of either of the sides. Faced with this huge number of dao essences, he had no other way but to go all out.
"Shit…"
He spat out. A ball of white energy came from his body and formed the divine body. Right after it appeared, it right away sat down and started to attract qi. Moments later the space around the clone rumbled. Vast streams of qi headed towards it and formed a vortex before the divine clone. At the same time the real Zes seemed to enter a strange state. He did not bother with the 900 dao essences that would without doubt completely eliminate him if they reached his body. Instead he sat down and closed his eyes.
A breath’s time passed and the dao essences had almost reached the position of Zes and the divine body. But they both still sat there, one was drawing in qi, while the other was just sitting there with closed eyes.
As the first dao essences were about to reach Zes, the world around him seemed to change. The vortex that clone had created had long since transformed into liquid form. That's right, the qi had become a fluid. In fact, this liquid was called heavens tears and they were a valuable cultivation treasure. One drop of it is said to have the ability to get someone from nascent stage to directly enter immortal stage. But it only appeared on places with abnormally high density of qi and even there you normally only find a few drops of it. Because of this, it was incredibly rare and every time it appeared even kingdoms were sending their delegations to obtain it.
One drop of it had such a potent effect but the vortex of the divine body had not only turned into a single drop. Not had it into a few. It was a whopping football consisting of this heavenly tears. A quantity like this, it could most likely make a mortal directly enter deity stage!
This ball of heavenly tears had floated to Zes and as it reached him something incredible happened. The heavenly tears directly fused into Zes and as the last drop fused with him, Zes’s eyes opened. Suddenly it seemed like the world was turning around him. An immense pressure was emitted from him as a core and it seemed as if the world itself would go insane.
Winds appeared out of nothing, dark clouds danced through the city followed by the radiant sun blazing onto the world. Cracks in the space appeared irregularly and it was a miracle that no one was caught in them.
In the middle of all this Zes was standing, killing intent surging and coldness surrounding him. He stamped with his foot into the air and a sound like a big gong echoed through the minds of all living beings in a radius of 100 kilometers. As the sound faded, the world seemed to have turned normal again. Only everything seemed to be much more colorful than before. All plants radiated an emerald glow, the water had an otherworldly shine, and the rock was emitting yellow light. Everything had become more radiant and possessed by the spirits of nature.
The dao essences had stopped right before hitting Zes. They seemed to be struggling against some invisible power unable to proceed. Coldly Zes stretched out his hand. He touched one of the dao essences. It started trembling and slowly dissipated. All the other dao essences also seemed to be fearful of Zes and dissipated by themselves.
The patriarch was unbelievingly staring at this scene. Similar all the elders of the Kun clan and the Bluedragon clan side were unable to process just what was happening before their own eyes. Zoe had her mouth widely open, while Les and Reis were just watching with bright open eyes.
But what came next was even more shocking. Zes waved his hand and as he waved it, all the radiant light inside of the nature followed his gesture. An incredible wave of energy followed his hands directions. As the patriarch tried to inspect the energy using his divine sense, he was even more horrified. He discovered that the whole wave was made of daos! That's right, it was no qi, nor were it dao essences. It were true daos.
Generally cultivators beneath the deity stage would mostly use qi techniques, while deities and also beings exceeding the deity stage would use dao essences to battle. Only after ascending would they be able to really use the dao they comprehended, meaning that they could freely use the principle it was based on. Not only was it much more powerful using the dao itself, in contrast to qi techniques and dao essences one wouldn't even need to use qi to do so. Only one had to have a mind strong enough to control the dao.
That was why even deity stage exceeding experts that had comprehended a whole dao were unable to use the dao itself and had to rely on inferior dao essences. Only after the ascension they had a mind strong enough to use their dao!
But Zes, a nascent stage immortal was using something even the patriarch wasn’t capable of doing. And also he was not only using one true dao, he was using a whole bunch of them! If he could use many true daos that also mend that he had comprehended all of them!

Actually with Zes abilities, he was theoretically long since able to use true daos but only his body was unable to tolerate the huge strain that it was putting on him. That's why he had to use his divine body to create heavenly tears and use them to temporary strengthen his body.
In fact until now he had never even thought about using heavenly tears. If he had, he wouldn't have cultivated for such a long time but directly used it to reach deity stage in one step. But the memories left by immortal Calmlight were too much, there were so many of them that Zes had already given up on getting them organized. Because of this, it was only while he was thinking about a way to quickly strengthen his body when he stumbled about this treasure.
Using a technique that was also described in his memory, he strengthened his body and created this wave of true daos that was currently closing into the patriarch of the Kun clan. But there was a drawback in this technique. It would put a huge strain on the body and after using it one would sustain internal wounds. Also one could only use it for 10 breaths time.
So even though Zes still looked indifferent and cold, he was actually rushed to quickly crush the patriarch before the effect of the technique would end and he would lose his fighting power.
Just as the wave of true daos was reaching the patriarch, he finally woke up from his shock and executed his movement technique in attempt to escape it. But Zes had already foreseen it. He formed a strange symbol using his hands and immediately the blue shining dragon that had been coiling in the blue dome shot out. Also the power of the dragon seemed to have tripled. Now its domineering aura was even stronger and in addition it formerly seeming illusory body had become solid. It roared and then crashed into the patriarch, which was panic-stricken trying to get out of the range of the wave.
As it slammed into the patriarch, it lost most of it might and seemed to be on the verge of collapsing but it had reached its goal. The patriarch heavily crashed into the wave underneath it. As he got into contact with it, it was as if one would watch on a Silvester sky. Lights in different colors flashed as the patriarchs body was corroded by the different daos. Painful screams came from the patriarch that couldn't save himself anymore. The pain in his mind and the torture his body was experiencing was cruel enough to instantly craze him. But even crazed, he could not escape the pain as there were daos of healing also mixed into the chaotic wave. But these daos were few in numbers and they were only prolonging his pain.
Only 15 minutes later the screams finally stopped. Nothing was left on the spot where the patriarch had once been.
Zes loudly breathed out but then suddenly the effect of the techniques boosting his constitution wore off. Red blood came from his mouth, his ears and his nose. He was falling down just like a kite with cut strings. Reis quickly flashed and appeared next to him, catching him out of the air. Then she flashed back behind the barrier.
Even though Zes had fallen, his divine body was still floating midair. The elders of the Kun clan were in complete disarray. They had lost their most powerful patriarch and the pillar of their kingdom. Without their patriarch, they would be unable to hold their ground against the kingdoms with more deity stage experts and quickly lose their own kingdom. Nevertheless they did not attack Zes divine body for revenge. The fight between Zes and their patriarch had down right petrified them. Any of the attacks they casually threw against each other would have been enough to make an end to them. So even if the divine body in front of them was weaker, could they really win against it?
Unsure how to proceed now they dumbly stood there.
The divine body turned to Pinia. His cold face made her instantly shudder and a bit of fear crept up. But it was instantly suppressed by boundless admiration. The death of the patriarch did not concern her too much as even though he was her grandfather, she had hardly met him before and did not feel any bond between the two of them. And seeing how Zes was able to kill the most powerful cultivator in the realm, how could she not admire a strength like that?
But other than admiration something else also got into motion. Something deeply hidden in her. A kind of lust appeared in her mind. A lust to be dominated by this power, to serve it. Embarrassed, Pinia immediately shook her head and a red glow appeared on her cheeks. But still, the thought made her ticklish and looking forward to it.
Zes divine body, which was essentially also Zes also noticed the change in Pinia but he did not really cared for it. In fact he only thought about how to get home and rest. But first he had to get things done, otherwise it would only cause more problems. He coldly said.
"We will have to discuss the conditions once again. In this regard I will entrust Gay Bluedragon with it."
Surprised, Gay looked to Zes divine body. But then he just nodded and floated to Pinia.
"Miss Kun, I think we will better discuss this in the city's palace."
"But of course."
As Zes confirmed that everything seemed to be clear, the divine body just turned back into white energy and shot towards Zes mansion where Reis had already brought Zes to rest.
