Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao - Chapter 144 Success! The Seal Of The Grand Dao And...The Void?

================¶¶================

Within the Serene Palace Painting…

Arthur sat in a meditative position as his consciousness sank into the depths of his soul with one purpose.

‘To harness the power of the gems.’

This wasn’t the first time Arthur was attempting this, and he never kept track of the number of attempts he had made.

But he had a feeling he might succeed today. Another matter was trying to access the Nine Heavens Palace.

The Nine Heavens Palace was his greatest treasure after the gems and could also be the one he needed the most.

There are so many things he needs help with and the Nine Heavens Palace will be his shortcut to it.

Time passes and Arthur’s consciousness ventured deeper and deeper into his soul’s space.

Soon he arrived at what you would call the center of his soul where a barrier is erected. And within that barrier, he could make out the distinct figure of four gem-shaped lights.

‘The gems,’ he thought.

He allowed his consciousness to stop in front of the barrier and decided to change his approach.

‘I have been trying to bulldoze my way through this restriction because frankly speaking, this is my soul.’

‘It’s like being restricted in my own house!’

But since that isn’t working, Arthur decided to use a softer method to access the gems.

‘Since the gems had fused with me there is a connection with my soul. But this connection is so faint and almost indiscernible.’ He thought.

In the end, Arthur concluded that he might not have completely fused with the soul gems.

After all, every treasure of the cultivation world, from the weakest to the most powerful, would require refinement to become truly yours.

And the stronger the treasure, the harder it is to refine.

And we are talking about multiverse-level treasures here!

Arthur isn’t sure that even with his soul cultivation he had not reached such a level. Although he is confident no one in his current universe can boast of a more powerful soul than him, it is still not enough.

Arthur calmed down and focused on sensing the faint connection he has with the gems.

In another scenario, this will be incredibly hard but deep in his soul, it becomes easy as he feels like a fish in water here.

An unknown amount of time passed and Arthur had not had a grasp of that connection but just as he felt like this would be another failure, he sensed it.

It felt like four incredibly weak tendrils were connecting him to the gems and without much thought, he moved forward.

As he did, the barrier did not restrict him like before and he entered into a place in his soul he had never been.

There, he saw it.

‘Where so big before?’

Arthur was shocked by the size of the gems. Before them, his consciousness felt like a spec of dust floating before a giant sun whose scope can not be seen through.

“Woah!”

Arthur exclaimed in surprise when he was suddenly drawn into the middle of the gems.

The four gems formed a square and seemed holding something.

“The Seal…”

A gigantic seal was flashing with an all too familiar destructive lightning.

This was the seal the Grand Dao placed in his soul, to prevent him from awakening the most powerful physique since the beginning of time.

The physique no one could awaken.

Thinking of this, Arthur spoke the name of the physique he wanted to create in his past life.

“The Grand Dao Physique.”

*Cackle!*

The destructive lightning in the seal flashed furiously but could do nothing under the suppression of the four gems.

Arthur frowned upon seeing this.

Within the seal, he could see a multi-colored light in think purple lightning chains.

He knew.

‘The spiritual manifestation of the Grand Dao Physique huh?”

“And there is something else…”

Arthur focused and discovered that he could sense a faint vibration that was being transmitted by the seal but the vibration could never go past the four invisible walls created by the gems.

“A tracking signal?”

Arthur widened his eyes, as he understood the sinister scheme of the Grand Dao.

“Heh, you underestimate the gems a bit too much.” Arthur mocked.

This seemed to cause a reaction from the seal.

“This would mean that a silver of its will is infused in the seal,” Arthur noted.

But he wasn’t worried. The gems were on par with the grand dao, if not stronger.

Still, he can not just sit and do nothing.

‘I will have to take my learning of Spirit Rune Seals more seriously.’

He knew it would be a long journey before he would have the skill and power to completely undo the seal of the Grand Dao, but he will get there eventually.

Arthur tossed thoughts of that aside for now and focused on the reason he was here.

“Fate, Soul, Space, and Time.”

“The fate gem had given me the passive ability to sense fortune and misfortune and sometimes have an oversight in the future through random visions which for now I have no control over.”

“The soul gem only granted me the ability to sense people’s emotions, and nothing more.”

Arthur noticed that his connection to the gems varied. He felt the strongest connection with the fate gem, and then the soul gem, while the other two were the same.

“But that is about to change,” Arthur smirked.

“I wonder what ability the space gem would give me if I strengthen the connection?”

Arthur decided not to speculate and practically dipped his consciousness into the space gem.

*vroom!*

The gem vibrated as this happens and Arthur lost his sense of bearing when his consciousness entered the gem.

If Arthur had to describe what he was feeling now, he would say.

‘Up felt like right, right felt like down and forward at the same time,’ it jumbled up his senses.

This was the power of space, the raw power of the void.

Arthur felt so disoriented that he was finding it hard to focus, but he strengthened his will and tried to sense something.Experience the Magic of Words: 𝓷σνєℓвιη.

It took a while but he could faintly sense something which felt very obscure to him.

But then he quickly sensed a familiar power.

“The void…” He whispered with a hint of understanding.
