Stronger with Crimson Modifier

Chapter 580 - 409: Hu Qi’s Dao (2)

Hu Qi was not one to put on a brave front.

For him, as long as he could achieve his goal, the means were unimportant.

Therefore, he had no qualms about using the Crimson panel when faced with a problem he couldn’t solve.

To him, ignoring an easy solution just to do things the hard way was undoubtedly an act of supreme foolishness.

But first, he needed to make some preparations.

He gazed at the solitary island before him. As he raised his hand, his fingers traced a series of silver Runes in the empty air.

The moment these Runes appeared, they swiftly vanished into the surrounding air, earth, and trees.

In an instant, a layer of swirling mist enveloped the entire island.

This was the Array he had set up.

He didn’t want to be disturbed by this world’s Natives while he was undergoing his Enlightenment.

’Crimson!’

With a thought, he summoned the panel.

His gaze then fell upon the status column.

[Status: Normal]

The evolution of the Pocket World inside him had reached one hundred percent, marking his successful entry into the Transformation Realm. As a result, the status bar, which had previously always read "Abnormal," now returned to "Normal."

Hu Qi gazed at the status bar, and a peculiar feeling washed over him.

Even after breaking through to the True God realm, he still couldn’t fully comprehend the panel, but his understanding of it had grown much deeper.

He could sense what could be modified through the panel and what couldn’t.

As he stared, he decided to act on his intuition and a recent theory. He tentatively spoke.

’Crimson! Modify my status. Put me into a state of Enlightenment! Don’t stop until I comprehend the Great Dao that is most suitable for me!’

As his words faded, the Crimson panel did not disappoint.

The text on the panel blurred for a moment before sharpening into focus.

[Status: Abnormal (Undergoing Enlightenment)]

In the next second, everything around him suddenly went dark.

All his senses vanished. In their place, his Divine Soul was lifted high, and he entered a state devoid of thought or feeling.

He did not remain in this state for long before countless tiny, flickering points of light appeared around him.

These points of light were not static. They flowed slowly along an esoteric trajectory, leaving long trails in their wake.

As his consciousness reached out to them, Hu Qi felt an unprecedented sense of vastness and profundity.

It was as if each point of light was the physical manifestation of a Great Dao.

The Fire Dao, the Martial Dao, the Devouring Dao...

One by one, different Great Daos emerged.

Unfortunately, while these were all impressive, none of them seemed to be what Hu Qi was looking for.

But just then—

Myriad white points of light converged, forming an image before his eyes.

The image wavered.

A hospital room came into view.

On the bed lay a Young Man, his legs suspended high in the air in traction, a stark and jarring sight.

In the adjacent beds, two other patients were conversing in low voices.

The Young Man suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked around, a flash of bewilderment and shock on his face, as if he had no idea how he had gotten there.

This Young Man was none other than Hu Qi, right after he had first transmigrated.

But now, Hu Qi was observing his former self from a third-person perspective.

He saw himself using Modification Points to heal his legs, Cultivating the Fifty Camp Breathing Method to strengthen his body, and even throwing that wretched couple who tried to harm him from the top of a tall building...

Scene by scene, it all replayed before his eyes like a movie.

After an unknown amount of time, the image finally froze on the moment he was sitting cross-legged on the island, seeking Enlightenment. Then, it abruptly stopped.

At the same time, the image began to fade.

The next moment.

A ray of light, impossible to describe with words, appeared before Hu Qi’s eyes.

This light seemed to transcend time and space, to rise above rules and Chaos. It contained everything, yet was detached from it all.

It was transcendence, it was the Infinite, it was the embodiment of the Great Dao, and it was a reflection of Hu Qi’s own spirit.

’Infinite...’

Hu Qi repeated the word in his mind. In that moment, he felt as if he had grasped something of vital importance.

In an instant.

He felt his power rising ceaselessly, as if there were no bottlenecks, no shackles, not even an end in sight.

With every breath, every beat of his heart, his power grew more substantial, more profound.

It was as if a gate to the Infinite had opened within him, and power flooded in like a tidal wave.

As time went on, his power continued to soar.

For a time, his consciousness was completely submerged in the experience.

...

「Outside.」

While Hu Qi used the Crimson panel to comprehend the Great Dao, time in the outside world flowed on.

The sun rose and set, seasons came and went, in an endless cycle.

However, thanks to the Array Hu Qi had deployed, the solitary island remained perpetually shrouded in a thick white mist.

The island’s vegetation remained evergreen through all four seasons, showing no signs of the passing years. But this also meant it was completely cut off from the outside world, and no one could get near it.

At first, the island’s strange condition didn’t attract much attention.

But as time passed, its mysterious phenomena eventually drew the attention of the world’s Natives.

But the Array on the island had been personally set by Hu Qi. Even the most powerful individuals in this world could not even get close to the island.

This, however, only served as further proof that the island was anything but ordinary.

They didn’t give up. Instead, they dispatched people to keep the island under surveillance.

At this moment, dozens of miles out from the shores of the unnamed island, iron-hulled ships could be seen drifting quietly on the water, stationed at regular intervals.

On the deck of one such ship, a short man sat cross-legged.

He had a black mole next to his mouth and was dressed in practical attire. He appeared to be meditating and Cultivating.
