The Investiture: Unlimited Blade Works Nezha-Chapter 322 - 321: As Expected, I Really Am Very Capable!

The departure of the Mystic Sect Immortals from the Primordial world did not cause much of a stir, and the Heavenly Court soon returned to its usual tranquility.

At the peak of the Heavenly Court

Nezha, robed in a daoist robe and radiating a sacred demeanor, sat serenely. Surrounding him, the spectacular scenes of Taihuangtian unfurled like a celestial scroll, with Nezha at its center, heralding the beginning of Taiyi Golden Immortal’s engagement with the concept of "world."

Regular immortals sense the chaotic aura and explore the boundary between chaos and order by merging it with the elements of the Primordial world and their own laws.

Nezha, however, with the assistance of the Chaos Pearl Fragment, faced none of these challenges.

The surrounding scenery portrayed ever-flowing rivers, shifting mountains, orderly sunrises, and disappearing moons.

Profound Immortals condense their Dao Seed and feel the Great Dao to produce their Dao Fruit. This "feeling" process is essentially a rudimentary imitation; advancing to the Taiyi Dao Fruit stage remains an imitation, albeit more precise and specific.

It is only upon reaching the Daluo Golden Immortal realm that one truly enters the Dao—what Mystic Sect Immortals commonly refer to as achieving the Dao. At this stage, one can truly interact with the Great Dao felt previously.

The ability to directly touch the Great Dao is the dividing line between Daluo Golden Immortal and those who come before.

In ancient times, these cultivation stages were not as numerous as now.

The simplest was the Qi Cultivators, the most foundational beings possessing cultivation.

The next stage was the Daluo Realm, representing beings who had genuinely entered the Dao. Figures like Nuwa and the Three Pure Ones, Saints in their time, typically entered this realm after transformation.

The subsequent level was the Chaos Origin Great Luo Dao Fruit. The concept of the Quasi-Saint realm did not originally exist—it emerged after the Daoist Ancestor spread the method of Three Corpses Cutting, refining and adding more subdivisions to the cultivation stages.

Previously, those teetering on the brink of Chaos Origin were categorized as Daluo, as were those newly entering the Dao. The disparity between such Daluo cultivators was immeasurable.

For Nezha, advancing to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm was easy; Nuwa alone had taught him five to six thousand methods. Coupled with the Demon Clan’s collections acquired from Di Jun and Taiyi, the number of methods exceeded ten thousand.

However, none of those methods completely satisfied him—not because they were ineffective but simply because they didn’t suit him personally.

The Taiyi Realm, a stage unheard of in ancient times, naturally attracted little research into "perfect breakthroughs."

The Primordial world itself lacked anything truly perfect—even Pangu’s spine was named Buzhou Mountain, with "Zhou" signifying perfection.

Nezha knew he wouldn’t find an invincible and flawless breakthrough method; he simply sought one most compatible with himself.

With enough information at hand and the assistance of the two supercomputers—the River Map and Luo Book, and the Creation Jade Scroll—he simulated a method that seemed most suitable from his current perspective.

As Taihuangtian’s projection expanded further, the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit atop Nezha’s head began to manifest, where countless laws engraved themselves upon it within Taihuangtian.

Meanwhile, invisible Dao Qi flowed downward, gradually transforming Nezha’s Dao Body.

People indeed have limits—this statement is no mere jest. Only through endless evolution can one better align with the enigmatic and ethereal Great Dao.

Nezha’s physical body had previously been reshaped by Pangu’s Power (during his Dream World experience, he had gained more insights there), rendering his body more attuned to physical attributes.

Of course, his adaptability to the Five Elements and Yin Yang was also exceptional, with Earth Element standing out significantly. Yet, Pangu’s Power was exceedingly domineering.

At times during battle, Nezha found it more practical to strike directly with punches than resorting to excessive techniques. Though his arsenal of methods was vast, they often felt unnecessary to use.

The Dao Mark left by Taihuangtian’s projection slowly etched itself on Nezha’s Dao Fruit. The remaining energy methodically remodeled his Dao Body, aligning Dao and Body to a heightened level of unity.

This process was neither swift nor hurried but steady.

When Taihuangtian’s projection fully vanished, a Dao Fruit inscribed with countless Dao Patterns slowly merged into Nezha’s body, causing spiritual energy across the heavens to converge toward him.

The pure and sacred Taiyi Divine Dawn burst forth from Nezha’s body, manifesting into a Dharma Form towering a myriad of feet high, surrounded by countless galaxies with golden crows echoing their cries.

Instantly, all Heavenly Court immortals turned their gaze toward the spectacle.

Within the Palace of the Polestar, three figures witnessing this scene couldn’t help but reveal expressions of joy.

’Nezha’ exclaimed gleefully, "Wonderful, Nezha has exited his seclusion!"

Daji and Deng Chanyu, suddenly recalling something, blushed deeply, while Long Ji noticed their reactions with a hint of confusion.

"Huh? Nezha emerged from seclusion, and you two aren’t happy?"

Daji, interrupted from her daydream, glanced at Deng Chanyu meaningfully and replied, "We’re happy—just a bit... overly joyful."

Deng Chanyu, catching Daji’s hint, hugged ’Nezha’ abruptly and chuckled, "Long Ji, why don’t we leave you alone with Nezha for a while so you can... enjoy yourself? Hehehe."

"Sister Ah Yu~ I won’t talk to you anymore!"

"Oh come on, or perhaps all three of us together wouldn’t be such a bad idea."

This brazen remark overwhelmed Long Ji, prompting her to flee in embarrassment.

Daji gave Deng Chanyu a thumbs-up and asked, "Aren’t you afraid Long Ji might actually agree to that?"

Deng Chanyu nonchalantly answered, "Then we’ll all join in—what’s the big deal? What’s wrong, are you feeling shy?"

Daji rolled her eyes, "Me? Shy? Please. I’m just worried poor Long Ji might struggle to handle your brazen antics!"

"You scoundrel, you’re no better yourself!"

...

The Divine Dawn receded as Nezha finally completed his breakthrough. In truth, advancing to Taiyi was easy; sorting through his previous insights and Spirit Light beforehand was what took time.

Returning to record his breakthrough method, he realized it would once again become another secret manual of divine skills!

The requirements, though, were rather high—not many would be capable of learning it.

Nezha intended to return to the Palace of the Polestar but unexpectedly received a message from his teacher, asking him to prepare and visit.

Nezha was puzzled—the Primordial Sealing God Tribulation had long ended, and due to his contributions, it had even exceeded expectations. What matter could now alarm a Saint?

When he returned to the Palace of the Polestar, he only found Daji and Deng Chanyu.

"Where’s Long Ji?"

With their relationship having progressed further, Deng Chanyu had grown more comfortable before Nezha. She snuggled up to him, answering, "She’s too shy—so she ran away."

"Is that so? Let me see just how fearless you are."

...

Nezha spent three days "preparing" before heading toward Taisu Heaven beyond Chaos.

Outside Nuwa’s Palace, the scenery remained unchanged, though the number of Jade Steps leading to the entrance seemed noticeably reduced.

Nezha glanced left and right, feeling something was amiss. Could it be that his teacher’s front Jade Steps were dynamic? The last time, when fortune was unkind to him, he had climbed endlessly without making progress.

Inside the palace, Qingluan, observing Nezha scrutinizing the steps outside, suppressed her laughter and called out, "Nezha, why are you lingering at the door instead of entering?"

After studying for some time with no breakthrough, Nezha thought that his teacher must have profound intentions.

"Sister Xiaoqing, I’m coming in now."

Following Qingluan into the palace hall, he exchanged light banter along the way.

"Nezha, your cultivation progresses like the wind—when you first joined, you were but a child, and now, within mere centuries, you’ve reached my level."

"It’s all thanks to our teacher’s excellent guidance; otherwise, how could it have happened so quickly?"

Hearing this, Qingluan’s lips twitched slightly, while Nuwa, sitting within the palace’s grand hall, nodded in agreement.

As expected—indeed, my abilities are unparalleled!
