The Legend of Min Hong

Chapter 259: The Three Solutions [1]

"We only have three options that could ensure our survival; the first is, the 'great creator' finds the True Spirits of his Daos and enter the Origin Realm; that way he would be able to battle the Yao Overlord on his own and if he manages to defeat it, then the rest of them would be forced to either serve us or die"

"Furthermore, that means we will also have an extra Plane of Existence that we can make our own"

"The second options that would save us from total annihilation; is to find an expert within our midst who could comprehend the strongest of all Daos and form a brand new True Spirit, with that, the level of suppression on these demons would increase by a whole notch"

"Can you shed more light on this second option?" Min Hong asked

"Alright, If you take the elemental True Spirits for instance, I mean the; Earth, Fire, Metal, Water and Wind Daos, they only suppress the Daos of anyone not native to our Plane of Existence by 1 percent" 

"So little!?"

Min Hong was a little bit put off by how weak the suppression effect level of the elemental True Spirits as he began to wonder if he really needed to waste his time comprehending such weak laws

"Let me finish"

"As for the Supreme Daos which are all variant Daos like the Weapon Daos or the merger of two or more Elemental Daos, their True Spirits suppresses their Daos by 2 percent respectively"

"Then for the Ancient Daos which are the Sage Mode Daos; and I mean Daos which were not merge outside a cultivator but from within, like the Ice, Lightning, Wood, Inferno, Karma and the likes, they suppress their Daos by 5 percent"

"Moving on to the Legendary Daos which are the; Space, Time, Yin, Yang, Death, Life, Darkness, Light and the rest, they all suppress the outsiders Daos by 10 percent individually"

"As for the Mythical Daos like; Will, Void, Chaos and the likes, they suppress the outsiders Daos by 20 percent, individually"

"But there are three Daos which are even more mysterious and mystical than the Mythical Daos, though I don't know them, but the 'great creator' told me that, the Oblivion Dao you just discovered was one of them, they suppress the outsiders Daos by 50 percent each"

"As for the remaining two Daos after the Oblivion Dao, even I do not know them and from what I could sense and tell from the 'great creator' neither does he know them"

"After all, as the 'great creator' normally teaches us then, he said if we take him to be the first being to have ever existed, then there must have been something that created him"

"And since he himself didn't know what it was exactly that created him, then no one else could learn about it, unless if the True Spirit of these two Daos decide to give the expert an insight into their existence"

"Thus, imagine if we have an expert that didn't even comprehended any other Daos, except from the Oblivion Dao and one of the remaining two, that person's existence alone, if they have reached the Origin Realm, would be able to render any outsiders Dao useless "

"Fantastic! I already have one"

"But though I can't claim to be able to find their True Spirits, but at least I still have a chance, and if I can find another one of the remaining two and luck be on my side that I am able to sense their True Spirits, then mankind would at least have a shot at redemption"

Min Hong muttered to them with a very strong optimism and hope of survival

"Yeah, that is the whole point But I don't mean to rain on your parade or pour you cold water, but, luck doesn't exist in this scenario"

"This is because Luck itself is a True Spirit"

"But unlike being the combination of two Elemental Daos, it is a combination of the Karma Dao and one other Dao that no one have been able to discover"

"The First Bloodline Ancestors and some Ancient experts have predicted that this Second Dao that birthed the Luck Dao is within all the current Daos known to mankind"

"But there is no Sage who is willing to forsake their lives and their current power in a bid of doing several guessing experiment that would lead to their sure and ultimate demise"

"Thus, till date, there is no expert who actually controls the Luck Dao, at least not in our current Plane of Existence"

"But what will happen if that person actually exists?" Little Wu asked whilst staring at Min Hong, he, himself, didn't know why, but this little punk sitting next to him has been in so many situations that he would be hard pressed to say he doesn't have the Luck Dao lying within him

"If such a person truly exists, then the entire Seven Planes, Eight Desolaces, Nine Hells and Ten Heavens would definitely succumb to the power of such an expert, even if the expert was a mere mortal" 

"How is that even possible? I mean a mere mortal having an Origin Level Dao and still remain a mere mortal?"

Shen Bing asked as Old man Li shook his head at her like as if a stupidly nave little child was ranting her knowledge to an ancient wise old man;

"Firstly, Daos aren't cultivated They are comprehended"

"And yes, there were mortals back then who had Essence Level Daos"

"The only problem is that, since they don't cultivate, they have no Qi or energy to manifest these Daos and use them for battle or anything else they want"

"But if the 'great creator' meets an ordinary mortal who has an Origin Level Dao, he would be rendered useless in the presence of such a person, because asides from the fact that every Dao attacks would be nullified unknowingly by these mortals, the True Spirits of these Daos will also protect that mortal even at the expense of their own lives..."

"This is because they know that these mortals have them within 'them' and as a result, their deaths aren't true deaths but just temporary sleep" 

"After all, the only difference between sleep and death is that; Death is permanent sleep while Sleep is a temporary death" Old Man Li explained

"Then why don't you make them realize the amount of power they possess?" Min Hong asked

"Well, let me see How do I explain this?" Old Man Li asked himself as he went deep in thought

After about ten breaths, he responded;

"How would you feel if I told you that the Seven Planes of Existence belongs to you and everything within them is within your beck and call?" Old Man Li asked

"That is impossible." Min Hong replied almost instantly

"Exactly my point These mortals who worship us and have comprehended such a level of Daos would never believe that to be true either" 

"Those who even manage to believe will always tell you that; the reason they are still a mortal after comprehending such enormous power is because there is something we are doing that makes these True Spirits leave us who are actual cultivators and grant enlightenment to them that are mortals"

"Some would even tell you that the reason why the True Spirits gave them such knowledge is because they didn't want us cultivators to know about it, so they simply shun us and send us away"
