Chapter 1777: Chapter 781: Three Flames Mountain! The Secret of the Dao Pattern

“Yes, as you command, Honored Lord.” The Dark Furnace Dominator, Lian Fu Dominator, and Fog Heaven Sovereign immediately stepped forward, respectfully.

Under Han Xing Supreme, there are seven great Dominators.

Each Dominator has multiple true bodies, with some having as many as nine… but not many remain long-term in the Long River Ruins.

The Eternal Relics such as Long River Ruins, Immortal Heaven and Earth, Abyss, and Heavenly Demon Mountain are relatively stable environments, with Immortal Heaven and Earth being the most stable and safe.

As a result, these Eternal Relics have become havens for numerous Quasi-Saint experts and Emperor Realm experts from across the cosmos, extending their lifespans.

On the other hand, because these Eternal Relics are relatively stable, most places likely to yield treasures have long been explored and are no longer attractive to top-level experts.

In contrast, places like Reincarnation Lake, Ancient Heavenly Court, and Qing Tian, which are extremely chaotic and fraught with potential danger, are more appealing to Emperor Realm Peak and even Dominators.

The greater the danger, the more it often signifies great treasures.

Chaos represents the constant possibility of treasured relics emerging from these Eternal Relics.

Thus, most Dominators in the cosmos focus their energy on seemingly lower-ranked, chaotic and uncharted Eternal Relics.

Low Rank Quasi-Saints, with their life spans near the end and little hope of breakthrough, are mostly satisfied with living stably in these Eternal Relics for a billion years or more.

But Dominators, only one step away from achieving the Supreme Ascension, surely yearn for a breakthrough?

Stability is not their pursuit.

Ascending to the Supreme Level, or even ultimately transcending, is their unwavering obsession.

“Go now.” Han Xing Supreme waved his hand.

He didn’t order other Dominators to rush to the Long River Ruins… even traveling from the cosmos to the Long River Ruins takes time en route.

By the time other Dominators arrive at the Long River Ruins to intercept Li Yuan, Li Yuan would already have entered Demon Heart Lake, and it would be too late.

As for requesting other major powers’ Dominators to intervene?

Han Xing Supreme was more concerned about the news leaking… after all, his influence over other Dominators was minimal, who knows if anyone would send information to curry favor with Li Yuan?

Gazing over his seven Dominators, Han Xing Supreme felt an icy chill in his heart, pondering silently, “Heart Dream, you probably can’t imagine that even if you employ means to temporarily prevent me from entering the Long River Ruins, I can still sense the location of Heart Source Quasi-Saint.”

“Heart Origin!”

“I hope you like the gift I send you.”

…

As Han Xing Supreme’s incarnation dissipated, the other Dominators also departed, leaving only the Dark Furnace Dominator, Lian Fu Dominator, and Fog Heaven Sovereign.

At this moment, the three had received Han Xing Supreme’s transmissions, allowing them to confirm Li Yuan’s position through comparisons with the Ancient Ruins Sea map.

“Such fast movement speed.”

“Heart Origin’s speed is probably not inferior to a Dominator.” The three Dominators, upon comparison, noticed Li Yuan’s impressive speed.

They were unaware of Qing Qi Dominator’s presence.

Or rather, until now, there was no information indicating that Li Yuan and Qing Qi Dominator were together… yet, based solely on Li Yuan’s speed, the three Dominators found it tricky.

“Dark Furnace, Lian Fu.”

“At Heart Origin’s speed, in about ten days, he’d reach Heart Demon Lake… and my full speed would take about twenty days.” Fog Heaven Sovereign softly noted, “Attempting to intercept will rely on you two.”

“Fog Heaven, we understand the situation, Lian Fu and I will exert all our effort.” Dark Furnace Dominator said solemnly.

In terms of status, Dark Furnace Dominator was recognized as the foremost among the Seven Great Dominators, yet he held great respect for Fog Heaven Sovereign.

Because Dark Furnace Dominator was aware of the other’s unique status, Fog Heaven Sovereign also came from Han Xing Travel Universe, but was not a Supreme Disciple.

In a sense, Fog Heaven Sovereign and Han Xing Supreme were strong figures born in the same cosmic era, having contended for cosmic control for a long time.

Ultimately, Han Xing Supreme broke through, and Fog Heaven Sovereign chose to submit, which gave Fog Heaven Sovereign an exalted status.

“His movement speed is too fast.”

“If we intercept outside Heart Demon Lake and make even the slightest mistake, he might break through our blockade, especially since reports indicate Heart Source Quasi-Saint often operates with multiple true bodies.” Lian Fu Dominator’s voice was melodious, and she wore a faintly revealing purple gauze.

Fire-red Dao Patterns flickered over her arms, thighs, and across her snowy skin, exuding an enchanting allure.

“We must block him.” Dark Furnace Dominator said in a low voice.

After a moment of contemplation.

“Judging from his travel direction… Three Flames Mountain should be his inevitable path.” Dark Furnace Dominator softly stated, “We’ll intercept him there.”

“Even with multiple true bodies working in concert, the environment of Three Flames Mountain will make it difficult for him to breach our impediments.” Dark Furnace Dominator added.

“Three Flames Mountain?”

“It only takes us a day to get there, giving us ample time to lie in wait.” Lian Fu Dominator agreed to this plan.

…

As days passed, Li Yuan followed Qing Qi Dominator, maintaining an exceptionally fast pace, encountering no danger along the way.

Even when encountering some Cosmic Cultivators or Ancient Spirits, Qing Qi Dominator could easily avoid them.

Gradually.

Li Yuan also noticed that within Long River Ruins, the number of Emperor Realm Peak level experts or Ancient Spirits was quite substantial; he’d encountered several along the journey.

But the numbers at the Dominator Level were few.

“There are really so few Dominators, I’ve been traveling for so long and haven’t come across a single Cultivator Dominator.” Li Yuan remarked with some emotion.

“That’s natural.”

Qing Qi Dominator, hearing this, smiled, “At the Emperor Realm Peak level, like in your Heart Dream Universe, there are several at present… combining the entire Eighth Dark Domain, there are dozens.”
