Demonic Dao Fanfiction: Protecting You from Worries for a Lifetime

Just as Chaoyang was about to step out of the cave, he suddenly noticed a change in his surroundings. The scene before him surprised and delighted him, for he found himself standing in a familiar place, surrounded by the items from his lost space ring.

Chaoyang's feelings are beyond words; his heart is filled with excitement and joy. These items are more than just simple objects to Chaoyang; they are treasures that carry countless memories and emotions. Each item reminds Chaoyang of the past.

Chaoyang approached cautiously, examining each item closely, as if reuniting with an old friend. Gratitude filled Chaoyang's heart. He had never imagined he would be able to recover these precious items. At that moment, he felt immense happiness and satisfaction.

As Chaoyang was sorting through the items in the space, he realized that the ring had been completely destroyed by the thunder tribulation. Otherwise, how could he not have found it?

Chaoyang was filled with doubts. He then carefully checked his body again, but still couldn't find the ring. However, everything he saw clearly proved the existence of the space. Chaoyang couldn't help but wonder if some mysterious force had repaired the space ring? Or was this just an illusion, a fantasy created by his deepest desire?

Chaoyang took a deep breath, deciding to put aside his doubts for the moment and carefully explore the space. He discovered that the items within the space were not only intact, but also seemed to be richer than before. Those once precious spiritual herbs and fruits were now full of vitality, emitting a rich spiritual energy.

Chaoyang began to wander around the space, carefully observing every corner. He discovered that the environment within the space seemed to have undergone subtle changes. The familiar mountains and rivers had become even more beautiful, as if they had been meticulously carved. Even the minerals and rare crystals seemed purer, emitting an even more dazzling light.

Chaoyang was filled with curiosity and began to carefully study these changes, trying to find the reason. However, the spiritual energy in the space seemed to flow more smoothly, as if a mysterious force was guiding the flow of spiritual energy, making the entire space full of vitality.

Chaoyang walked to a spiritual field and discovered that the spiritual herbs there were not only growing more luxuriantly but also more diverse than before. Chaoyang wondered if the growth of these spiritual herbs was related to the passage of time within the space? Then Chaoyang planted a spiritual herb seed in the field. In the blink of an eye, the seed actually began to sprout. This realization made Chaoyang jump with excitement.

Chaoyang also discovered an ancient building not far from the spiritual field. He walked in and saw it was an alchemy room, with an alchemy furnace in the center. The furnace emitted a faint glow, as if waiting for its owner to arrive. Before leaving, Chaoyang took a closer look and was delighted. This alchemy furnace was exactly what he had used before, and he had never expected it to appear in this space.

Chaoyang stood before the alchemy furnace, reaching out to touch the body, feeling the familiar warmth. Chaoyang decided to try refining some elixirs to see if he could regain his alchemy skills. He took out some spiritual herbs from the space and began to refine them.

As the flames within the alchemy furnace rose, a rich medicinal aroma filled the air. Chaoyang concentrated on controlling the flames, sensing the transformation of the elixir within the furnace. After considerable effort, he finally succeeded in refining a batch of high-quality elixirs.

Chaoyang looked at the pill in his hand and realized that what he saw was not an illusion but real.

Chaoyang's heart was filled with joy. He had finally found his own precious place for cultivation. This mysterious secret realm had not disappeared; it still existed. This also gave Chaoyang hope for a resurgence. But Chaoyang did not stay in that space for too long.

Chaoyang knew full well that the true path of cultivation wasn't confined to this small space. Furthermore, this world was a whole new world for Chaoyang, filled with unknowns and mysteries. Chaoyang couldn't wait to venture out, explore, and experience more. Chaoyang longed to hone himself in the wider world and improve his cultivation, so that he could better face the challenges and difficulties of the future.

Chaoyang carefully sorted the pills he had refined, each movement showing extreme caution. Chaoyang placed the freshly refined pills one by one into the exquisite porcelain bottles, as if they were rare treasures.

Chaoyang then began to wash up. He could have used the cleansing technique, but Chaoyang still preferred to take a bath. After washing up, Chaoyang put on a brand new set of robes, looking completely refreshed.

Perhaps because Chaoyang came from a family of flower growers, in addition to refining elixirs, Chaoyang also had a keen interest in growing spiritual plants and fruits. Chaoyang's secret manual was filled with various spiritual plants and fruits, even spiritual rice and various grains.

These plants are all seeds Chaoyang personally collected from various locations, carefully cultivated in his own little world. They are diverse and colorful, each imbued with a unique spiritual energy. Chaoyang cultivates these spiritual plants and fruits not only for cultivation, but also to satisfy his own appetite. Every harvest season, Chaoyang enjoys the delicious food he has grown with his own hands, and the satisfaction and sense of accomplishment he feels is unmatched by any treasure.

The rice cooked with spiritual rice is soft, sweet and has an excellent taste. Coupled with the spiritual energy of the spiritual rice, Chaoyang felt full of strength after eating it.

After eating and drinking, Chaoyang left the secret realm and headed towards the nearby town to learn about the customs and habits of this unfamiliar world of cultivation.

After walking for a long time, Chaoyang finally arrived at an abandoned village. Although it was dilapidated, it was at least a place to shelter from the wind and rain. Chaoyang found a relatively intact house in the village, cleaned it up briefly, and settled down.

In the following days, Chaoyang practiced during the day and used the resources in the space to refine some elixirs and spiritual tools at night. Although Chaoyang's current cultivation level had dropped significantly, it was still more than enough to refine some low-grade elixirs and spiritual tools.

As his cultivation gradually recovered, Chaoyang began to experiment with refining higher-grade elixirs and spiritual artifacts. He discovered that, although the spiritual energy in this world was thin, it seemed to have a special effect on alchemy and artifact refining. The elixirs and spiritual artifacts he refined were of a quality far beyond the imagination of ordinary cultivators.

However, Chaoyang also knew that these elixirs and spiritual tools could not be used freely in this world. If exposed, he would be in endless trouble. Therefore, Chaoyang could only carefully conceal his strength and try not to attract attention.

As the days passed, Chaoyang's cultivation gradually recovered. However, just as he was about to leave the village, a sudden disaster disrupted his plans.

At night, while Chaoyang was cultivating, he suddenly sensed a powerful surge of spiritual energy coming from afar. Startled, he quickly stopped cultivating and looked in the direction of the spiritual energy. He saw the sky thick with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and a thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking directly towards the village.

Chaoyang's heart tightened, knowing this was no ordinary lightning strike. He quickly packed his things and prepared to leave the village. However, just as he stepped out of the door, a powerful force suddenly sucked him in, preventing him from moving.

"Is this... the power of rules?" Chao Yang was shocked. He had never thought that this world could actually let the rules take action. He struggled to break free from this power, but found that he was unable to resist.

At this moment, the lightning in the sky suddenly became more intense, and thick lightning bolts danced wildly in the sky like giant dragons. Chaoyang felt a powerful pressure coming from the sky, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"Is he going to die again?" Chaoyang's heart sank. He had never expected to encounter such a disaster. A strong sense of resentment and anger surged in his heart. He didn't want to die like this. He still had too much to do.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Chaoyang's mind: "Do you want to live?"

Chaoyang was delighted and quickly replied, "Of course I do!"

"Well, I'll give you a chance," the voice said. "As long as you can complete the task I assign to you, I can let you live."

"What mission?" Chaoyang asked.

"Save this world," the voice said. "This world is on the verge of destruction. Only you can save it."

"Me?" Chaoyang couldn't believe his ears. "I'm just an ordinary person. How can I save the world?"

"You are not an ordinary person," the voice said. "You were brought here. You possess a space, and you possess the knowledge and skills of the cultivation world. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely be able to save this world."

"I..." Chaoyang hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "Okay, I'm willing to try."

At this moment, the lightning in the sky suddenly became more intense, and a thick lightning bolt struck Chaoyang directly. Chaoyang felt a strong electric current rushing into his body, and his body trembled involuntarily.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly echoed in Chaoyang's mind: "Don't be afraid, this is the law of heaven testing you. As long as you can survive this test of lightning, your cultivation will be restored to the late Nascent Soul stage."

Chaoyang's heart trembled. He knew he couldn't retreat. He gritted his teeth and resisted the lightning with all his might.

Lightning bolts lashed out like whips, each one threatening to tear him apart. Yet, an unyielding fire burned within Chaoyang's heart. He closed his eyes, concentrating his mind and gathering the remaining spiritual energy within him into his dantian, forming a resilient shield to withstand this test from Heaven.

Time seemed frozen, each second of agony feeling like a century. Chaoyang's clothes were soaked with sweat, his face pale as paper, but his eyes grew more resolute. He knew this wasn't just a test of his body, but also a test of his will and conviction.

Finally, when the last lightning streaked across the sky and fell without being able to penetrate the protective shield around him, everything returned to calm.

It once again fell on this dilapidated village, bringing a long-lost warmth and vitality to this forgotten place.

Chaoyang slowly opened his eyes, feeling aches all over his body, as if he'd experienced countless cycles of life and death. But when he looked inward at his dantian, he saw an unprecedented surge of powerful spiritual energy flowing through him. It was the power of a late Nascent Soul cultivator, and there were even faint signs of a breakthrough. Chaoyang felt an indescribable surge of excitement and joy. He knew that not only had he survived, but he'd also found a blessing in disguise, greatly increasing his cultivation.

Chaoyang took a deep breath, feeling the spiritual energy surging within him. He understood that this unexpected trial was not only a stepping stone to his cultivation, but also a spiritual cleansing. Chaoyang stood up and gazed into the distance, his heart filled with anticipation and determination for the future.

Then Chaoyang looked around. No wonder he couldn’t get out of this abandoned village. It turned out that the rules were a test for him!

His own destiny is closely linked to this world, and what Chaoyang bears is not only the burden of his own life and death, but also the fate of the entire cultivation world and even the wider world.
