Chapter 785: Chapter 298: The Far-Expanding Emperor of Mortal Clan, The Strength of Han Li_1 Chapter 785: Chapter 298: The Far-Expanding Emperor of Mortal Clan, The Strength of Han Li_1 “Dadao Token!”
Han Li flipped his palm, and a token that appeared ancient and time-worn, with the character “Dao” visible on both sides and covered in intricate Dao patterns, materialized in his hand.

Gazing at the token, Han Li’s eyes flashed, and then revealed a profound and meaningful expression.

“Just one more month, and the Dadao Palace will make its appearance.

I’m quite looking forward to it,” Han Li murmured to himself, with a hint of curiosity and anticipation on his handsome face.

This Dadao Token had been acquired by him three hundred years ago during a universal fishing expedition, using up a thousand years of his cultivation and a green fishing rod.

In terms of material, the Dadao Token was merely equivalent to a Quasi Immortal Monarch Rank Treasure, but its true value far exceeded that rank, not even Immortal Monarch Rank Treasures could compare to it, it was at least equal to an Immortal King weapon.

When he first obtained the treasure, Han Li did not understand its worth, but after encountering the mysterious Chang Xi, everything became clear.

Chang Xi informed him of all the relevant information about the Dadao Token and the Dadao Palace, truly a creation against the Heavens, one that even Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals couldn’t compare to an Immortal King weapon.

After all, the Dadao Palace involved a fortune that was connected to the fourth step.

According to Chang Xi, the Dadao Palace was one of the greatest sites of fortune in the Ancient Eternal Realm, and if it weren’t for the restriction that only those below the Golden Immortal Realm could enter, and even methods like severing one’s own cultivation or suppressing it being of no use, it would have already been monopolized by the Immortal Emperors.

No one knows the origin of the Dadao Palace; many speculations point towards the fourth step.

The most credible legend suggests that the Dadao Palace was left by an Emperor of the Human Clan from ancient times, to cultivate the later generations of the Human Clan.

As everyone knows, the Emperor of Heaven from ancient times and the modern Emperor of Heaven are not the same; it’s an almost open secret.

Ancient historical records that have been unearthed indicate that in ancient times, the Great Eternal Realm seemed not yet fragmented into the Taichu Realm and other myriad celestial worlds, but a single, complete world.

Later beings called this world the Eternal World, and the Eternal World had a Heavenly Court.

Each era had only one Heavenly Court, and the last of these was the Human Clan’s Heavenly Court, which became the ruler of all clans.

The master of the Heavenly Court was the Emperor of Heaven, a being who had stepped into the fourth step, or perhaps even transcended it, supremely powerful and beyond anyone’s understanding.

Then it seemed something happened which forced the Emperor of the Human Clan to embark on a distant expedition, severing the ancient times, unwilling to involve this Eternal World.

Even so, the Eternal World was shattered by the aftershocks of that war, evolving into the current myriad heavenly worlds.

The Dadao Palace is said to be something the Emperor of the Human Clan cast forth into the void as he embarked on his expedition, which then returned to the Eternal World and transformed.

What exactly happened in ancient times is unclear, only fragments of vague records exist; whether the Emperor of the Human Clan who went on the expedition is still alive, whether his followers in the Heavenly Court still exist, no one knows…

Whereas in the modern era, there are far too many Emperors of Heaven throughout the myriad worlds, and countless Heavenly Courts; virtually every realm ranked in the top hundred has its own Heavenly Court, mostly belonging to the Human Clan.

Regardless of which clan’s Heavenly Court, their Emperor of Heaven is merely at the Immortal Emperor Realm, confined to the peak of the third step, unaware of what the fourth step even looks like, and nothing compared to the Emperor of the Human Clan who embarked on that ancient expedition.

Because it’s related to the myriad heavenly worlds, involves the fourth step, and is connected to that expeditionary Emperor of the Human Clan, the Dadao Palace is shrouded in many layers of mystery, holding unspeakable significance in the Ancient Eternal Realm.

Exactly because the fortune of the Dadao Palace is so immense, its emergence is extremely rare, appearing at least once and at most three times in every Tribulation period.

The entry credential to the Dadao Palace is the Dadao Token.

Every time it opens and takes back the Dadao Tokens, upon their disappearance, they will be expelled into the myriad heavens, waiting for the next emergence to be reclaimed.

The Dadao Token automatically conceals the machinations of fate, not even Immortal Emperors can intercept it nor locate it, unless they are very close to sense it.

Obtaining the Dadao Token is entirely based on fortune and destiny.

Chang Xi told him that she had once entered the Dadao Palace and obtained some major creation against the Heavens from within.

According to her understanding, the total number of Dadao Tokens is fixed at one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred; not even Immortal Emperors can destroy them.

In the Taichu Realm, every Tribulation period has its supreme geniuses participate in the Dadao Palace event, with the least number being twelve True Immortals, and the maximum being sixty-eight True Immortals, including those who had seized some Dadao Tokens from other realms.

This further elevated the value of the Dadao Token.

Before departing, Chang Xi also gave Han Li a partial map of the Dadao Palace, which despite covering only some regions, was tremendously valuable.

It is because of all these reasons that Han Li didn’t rush to break through to the Golden Immortal Realm; he wanted to see the Dadao Palace for himself.

More than eighty years ago, Han Li had already broken through to the pinnacle of the True Immortal Realm, and over twenty years ago, he had gathered enough cultivation to break into the Golden Immortal Realm.

However, for the sake of the Dadao Palace, Han Li decided to wait, not minding these two or three decades.

If he could acquire some of the Dadao Palace’s fortune that involves the fourth step, the strongest creation, then he would truly prosper.

Generally speaking, Han Li wouldn’t participate or even want to compete for such fortunes and creations; he had made this clear since descending the mountain, hence until now, he had never fought with other cultivators for such chances.

But this time was different.

It wasn’t just the immense fortune of the Dadao Palace, nor its connection to the fourth step or the expeditionary Emperor of the Human Clan.

It was simply because Han Li’s strength was formidable enough.

This gave Han Li an overwhelming 98% confidence.
