Chapter 1003 The Three Treasures of the Balance Instrument

"However, you are a backup plan set up by the Daoist sect. If you can become a Dao Lord, you will not be without protection."

The Creation Immortal Venerable continued, "But Dao Lord, that's probably the end for you. Want to become a Venerable? Let alone whether you can make it through your path, you'll even have a hard time over the final hurdle, the [Heart Demon Tribulation]."

At this moment, the Creation Immortal Venerable was somewhat curious: "That's right, you are not the only young Dao Venerable in the Daoist sect now, so why are they so concerned about you?"

Thinking of this, the Creation Immortal Venerable tried to separate a wisp of divine thought to examine the quality of the thorn rain.

Just then, the hairpin hanging above the woman in the animal skin suddenly rose up, its tip pointing directly at the Creator Immortal's brow, the warning meaning self-evident.

"Alright...alright...I know the rules." The Creation Immortal Venerable shrugged.

The woman in animal skin scanned Jing Yu from head to toe: "Unfortunately, what I am here now is only an avatar. If my true self were here, how could I tolerate the little tricks left behind by Shenmeng..."

It seems that the Divine Dream Master has helped me conceal my destiny of longevity... Jing Yu thought to herself.

He didn't believe that the method of concealing one's destiny that he had learned from the Buddha of Universal Salvation could fool the Creator Immortal, even though he was only facing an avatar at this moment.

Now that he had the protection of the Divine Dream Daoist, Jing Yu grew bolder and asked a question that had lingered in his mind for countless years:

"May I ask, Your Excellency, could you please explain why all the forces in the entire Immortal Realm seem to be nurturing young Dao Venerables? Is it merely to protect more Dao Lords through the Great Tribulation of the Epoch? Or, to put it another way, what specific role does the birth of a new Dao Venerable play in averting the Great Tribulation of the Epoch?"

The Immortal Venerable of Creation looked at the hairpin suspended in mid-air and said indifferently, "Can I talk about this?"

After a moment, the woman in animal skin shrugged: "I can only tell you what you can know."

"To sum it up in one sentence, almost all the Dao Venerables in the Immortal Realm... are seeking a solution."

"A way to kill the Dao Venerable!"

Jing Yu was taken aback: "A group of Dao Venerables are looking for a way to kill a Dao Venerable?"

"But that's impossible."

The Creation Immortal said lazily, "A Daoist can be imprisoned, weakened... but can never be killed."

"The Daoist Master will not die."

"We do not control the power of the rules; we are the rules themselves... So how do you kill a rule?"

Jing Yu asked doubtfully, "The adults want to kill a certain Dao Venerable, and killing this Dao Venerable is the key to averting the Great Calamity of the Era?"

"That's right, but as I said, it's impossible to do."

The Creation Immortal Venerable shook his head: "It has been countless epochs. Almost all the Dao Venerables in the Immortal Realm have participated in this siege, but we have tried every means and failed."

"Therefore, the Ones can only hope that a new Daoist will appear and bring new methods... but will it be useful in the end?"

“Shakyamuni has attained enlightenment, Subhuti has attained enlightenment… even that sword has attained enlightenment.”

"There are three more Dao Venerables in the world, but we are still helpless against them."

"If it can't be done, it can't be done, no matter how many eras pass."

The Creation Immortal said lazily, "Therefore, the Five Elements have been abandoned, Yin and Yang have also been abandoned, and the Universe and the Light of the Universe now only bear the responsibility of reopening the Immortal Realm after all things have returned to nothingness. They are no longer attached to this goal."

"Only the Taoist sect, the Buddhist sect, and the Sword Court have not given up... The former's leader, [One Yuan], may be doing this for the sake of all living beings, while the two World Honored Ones and that swordsman? They all attained their status under the layers of tribulations created by that person, and have long been irreconcilable enemies, which is why they are so tireless."

Jing Yu tentatively asked, "What exactly did that person do to provoke most of the Dao Venerables in the entire Immortal Realm to want to eliminate him as soon as possible?"

"I can't say that." The Creation Immortal Venerable shook his head and said, "This matter is a long story, and there are too many secrets to tell you. If I tell you everything in detail, it will inevitably create a relatively concrete image of that person in your mind."

“Once you have this image in your mind, He will watch over you.”

"In short... this is a very absurd story."

The Creation Immortal Venerable couldn't help but say, "This is a difficult problem left to the entire Immortal Realm by the [Number One Prodigy of All Time], who has transcended countless eras, aside from the One Yuan..."

"In short, your only task now is to cultivate diligently and strive to reach the Dao Lord realm before the end of this era."

"Once you reach the Dao Lord level, [Yi Yuan] and the others will naturally tell you the whole story."

"All right."

The woman in animal skin suddenly stopped talking, snapped her fingers, and a glimmer of light leaped out from her sleeve. In an instant, it grew in the wind and transformed into an exquisitely crafted triangular balance scale, which hovered steadily in her palm.

The scales shimmered with a luster that resembled neither jade nor gold. Three mysterious pillars stood in a tripod formation, each supporting a jade plate, which was empty.

"This object is called the Three Treasures Balance Instrument."

With a flick of his finger, the Immortal Venerable of Creation sent the treasure flying into Jing Yu's palm: "There is only one of its kind in heaven and earth."

"This treasure has only one use—to weigh the specific weight of your own three treasures: essence, energy, and spirit."

"You can try storing it in your dantian."

Jing Yu did as instructed, storing the [Three Treasures Balance Instrument] into her dantian. A moment later, the treasure recognized her as its master.

Then, an astonishing scene unfolded!

Three orbs of light of different colors suddenly appeared on the three trays of the triangular balance. Jing Yu hardly needed to identify them; he could easily sense that these three orbs represented his [essence, energy, and spirit].

At this moment, the light cluster representing the [Divine Soul] seems to be the heaviest. The [Divine Soul] sinks slightly, raising the light clusters representing the [Physical Body] and [Magic Power].

"At this moment, my [divine soul] is the strongest, followed by my [physical body] and [magic power]?" Jing Yu suddenly realized.

That's not a problem. After all, he condensed the [Divine Dream Realm], and his divine soul was the first to break through the shackles and enter the Cave Heaven level. Now, after several years, with the premise of diligently cultivating the [Spirit Nourishing Technique] every day, although the strength of his divine soul has not yet reached the [Mid-Cave Heaven] level, it is already far ahead of his physical body and magic power.

Jing Yu was puzzled. This treasure had no other use except for comparing the strength of [essence, energy, and spirit]. But what use was knowing the strength of his three treasures?

As the Immortal Venerable of Creation watched Jing Yu close her eyes slightly to sense the [Three Treasures Balancing Instrument] in her dantian, he continued:

"Don't think it's useless. This treasure was specifically requested by [God's Dream] for me to lend to you. If He hadn't asked, I wouldn't have been willing to give it to you."

"This treasure is for you to cultivate the [Creation Immortal Body]!"
