Chapter 2774: Foundation First
"What a great Taoist master Hun Meng! How did he do it? To open up a true universe is a power that only Taoist masters have. A mere transcendental realm should be far from being able to do that. How could he do it?"

Zhang Qian was puzzled. He was now in the late stage of transcendence and, like other transcendents, could open up the universe with a wave of his hand.

However, the universe he created would be destroyed in the blink of an eye, vanishing into thin air and turning into nothingness. Although the countless immortals and gods created within could also experience a complete life and endless years in it, the original nothingness was only a blink of an eye.

A moment in the outside world is equivalent to countless billions of years in the universe. The only pity is that the universe cannot exist for long.

For countless cosmic epochs, the ten primordial masters have been diligently seeking how to open up a truly vast universe, rather than a universe that would disappear in the blink of an eye.

But no one has ever succeeded. All the original masters have failed. Unless they become giants in the realm of Tao and achieve the first realm of Tao, they will never be able to open up a real big universe.

But the Taoist Master Hun Meng, who was very low-key, did it, and he did it without anyone noticing.

If Zhang Qian had not entered the original universe of Taoist Master Hunmeng today, he would not have discovered this. If other original masters knew the peculiarity of Taoist Master Hunmeng, they might join forces to attack him and obtain the secret of opening up the great universe in the transcendent realm.

"It seems that the benefits that Taoist Master Hun Meng has gained in this world are far beyond my imagination. His body is the Dao Divine Tree, which is one of the best innate spiritual roots in this world. Countless Taoist masters have gained enlightenment under the tree. The feedback received from the Dao Divine Tree is beyond imagination. It not only contains the mysteries of the Five Great Qi, but also many incredible magical skills and methods of cultivation!"

As a treasure for enlightenment, a sacred tree for comprehending the mysteries of the five elements of energy, the Transformation Tree is blessed by nature. Who would have thought that the Transformation Tree would give birth to spiritual intelligence.

If the giants of the Dao realm in this world knew that the Dao Transformation Divine Tree had given birth to intelligence, they would have taken action to wipe it out long ago. After all, when they attained enlightenment under the Dao Transformation Divine Tree, it was equivalent to showing their own way of cultivation, their own path of cultivation, and the mysteries of the Five Tai Qi that they had comprehended to the Dao Transformation Divine Tree.

If the Huadao Divine Tree had intelligence, how could they do this?

It was also because Master Hun Meng hid himself too deeply that he was not discovered by many Taoist giants. He perfectly concealed his spiritual intelligence and escaped.

This must be the mystery of the Dao-Transforming Divine Tree itself. There are countless Dao-realm giants out there. The wisdom of the Dao Master Hun Meng can escape the perception of countless Dao-realm giants. This alone is incredible.

Zhang Qian was very curious about what kind of magical power this was that could deceive so many Dao realm giants, including some strong men in the fourth realm of Dao.

He could imagine how much benefit he could get in this world if he were the Dao-transforming Divine Tree. The cultivation paths of countless Dao-realm giants, the great magical powers they comprehended, and the mysteries of the five great energies they comprehended were all obtained by the Dao Master Hun Meng.

After the destruction of this world, Taoist Master Hunmeng was the greatest relic of this world, but he transformed himself and became the original master.

He inherited the foundation of countless Taoist giants in this world. In terms of the depth of his foundation, no one can match him. Perhaps only the extremely mysterious Yiqi Immortal Venerable and the Other Shore Taoist Venerable can be compared with him.

After deep amazement, Zhang Qian began to explore this primordial universe carefully. Everywhere he looked, he saw a vast primordial universe shrouded in purple mist.

It contains countless chaotic universes, and the number of living beings and gods in it is beyond imagination and cannot be counted.

They are the foundation of the Hun Meng Dao Master, the real foundation, and also the biggest trump card. After countless cosmic eras, the number of transcendents under the Hun Meng Dao Master has reached a terrifying level.

But what he showed was only a small part of it.

Not long after, Zhang Qian discovered the hidden background of Taoist Master Hunmeng. He flew over one Hongmeng universe after another and slowly came to the center of this original universe.

In addition to the endless void, there is also a huge land floating in the void. The size of this land is comparable to the original universe of the Taiyuan Saint King. From this, it can be seen how much larger the original universe of the Hunmeng Taoist Master is than other original universes. Such a huge continent floats in the void, and it is filled with countless transcendent auras.

At that time, there were an astonishing number of transcendent beings with terrifying powers.

This time when he went to Linglong Blessed Land, Taoist Master Hunmeng himself brought with him an army of hundreds of millions of transcendents, but the number of transcendents in this vast continent is even greater, far more than hundreds of millions.

Zhang Qian took a quick look and discovered that the number of transcendents among them was as countless as the stars in the sky.

This is the foundation accumulated by the Taoist Master Hunmeng over countless cosmic eras, and he is a transcendent being born in the endless Hongmeng universe.

There is no doubt that the number of transcendents under the command of Taoist Master Hunmeng is the largest among the many original masters, even the Taoist Master Bi'an who is everywhere converting transcendents cannot compare to him.

You should know that the Taoist Master of the Other Shore was transformed from a wisp of will of the Supreme Dao, and even this is not as good as the Taoist Master of Hunmeng, which shows how terrifying the Taoist Master of Hunmeng is.

"With such a terrifying background, why did Daoist Master Hun Meng not lead his troops to conquer the Original Nothingness, but hide all his background? Why is that?"

Zhang Qian was a little confused. If it were him, with such a terrifying background, he would definitely want to rule the entire primordial nothingness, become the primordial master, and control the heavens and the universe.

However, Taoist Master Hunmeng did not do so, but hid all his forces. Is he afraid of something?
Zhang Qian had no doubt that the Taoist Master Hunmeng knew the secrets of this world. As a divine tree of Taoism, it had completely experienced the destruction of this world. Countless Taoist giants had attained enlightenment under the tree.

The amount of secrets of this world known by Taoist Master Hun Meng is beyond imagination. The reason why he did not attack the original nothingness even though he had such a terrifying background is that he is obviously afraid of something.

"Could it be those Dao Realm giants who are preparing to revive and return? Or something else?"

Zhang Qian, full of doubts, thought for a long time but could not come up with an answer, so his attention shifted to the huge continent ahead.

This continent is comparable to the size of an original universe, vast and boundless. Looking at it from afar, one can see this terrifying infinite world with divine light steaming and nine colors shining. There are countless sacred mountains and fairy islands in it, which give birth to endless life.

Countless transcendents founded their own sects in the towering sacred mountains. What shocked Zhang Qian the most was that those transcendents who founded their own sects were all the ancestors of a different sect!
The number of ancestors on this continent is extremely astonishing.

In the original nothingness, there are actually not many original ancestors, because this path is very difficult to walk. It is not an easy task to open up a path of cultivation that can be practiced by countless creatures in the heavens and universe.

It was only with the deduction of the Jade Disc that Zhang Qian became an ancestor and created the way of star spirits.

Without the deduction from the Jade Disc, he would have no chance of creating a new path of cultivation in such a short period of time.

This also makes the path of an ancestor extremely difficult. Just getting started requires incredible wisdom and understanding.

Therefore, most of the transcendents seek refuge with the ten primordial masters, or find a hidden vast universe in the primordial nothingness and embark on the path to becoming the master of the universe.

Or one could comprehend the fragments of this world, gain the mystery of the transformation of existence and non-existence from them, and use this to practice.
