Chapter 529: Chapter 526: The Existence Representing the Will of the Heavenly Dao
Yang Immortal Emperor appeared above the Celestial Dao Light Layer, transforming into a radiant sun, allowing all living beings to witness his brilliance.
His vast mana had already enveloped the entire Great Heaven and Earth and even extended into the depths of the universe. Behind him, fierce flames converged into the form of a Celestial Dao Golden Core, this Golden Core was even more enormous than the seven suns above the Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth.
Figures flew out from Heaven and Earth, looking at Yang Immortal Emperor with fear.
Yet faced with Yang Immortal Emperor’s imposing presence, no one dared approach him.
“Who is he?”
“The lord of the Immortal Dynasty, Yang Immortal Emperor. What is he trying to do?”
…
“Such a powerful aura. How high is his Dao Practice actually?”
“He hasn’t gone into demonic possession, has he? It doesn’t seem good!”
“Could it be that he is going to make a move against the Holy Court?”
The Cultivators of the Immortal Dao discussed among themselves, unease swelling in their hearts. Facing the ever-increasing aura of Yang Immortal Emperor, no one dared to make a sound.
Far away in the Supreme Sect, Long Qing also looked up at this scene. When Candle Star appeared beside him, he couldn’t help but ask what this anomaly was.
“The lord of the Immortal Dynasty seeks to use the power of the Heavenly Dao to restore the shattered Great Thousand World to its original state, that is, to bring the various Great Heaven and Earth together,” Candle Star said with a serious face. Yang Immortal Emperor, who was merely at the Daoist Zang Zizai Immortal Realm level, exhibited an aura that even made him, the Profound Yuan Free Immortal, tremble with fear.
Upon hearing this, Long Qing felt shocked, and at the same time, a greater confusion arose in his heart. He further inquired, “What good is it to bring the Great Heaven and Earth together?”
Far away in the Daoist Field of the Beginningless, Shen Zhen also asked Gu An this question.
Gu An replied, “When the heavens and the earth merge, destinies will also merge, allowing those who contend for the destiny of heaven and earth to have more destiny. Also, from the perspective of the Heavenly Dao, this is indeed a good method. The current constant catastrophes are because the Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth has reached its limit of endurance. The Heavenly Dao hopes to alleviate the pressure on Heaven and Earth. Moreover, other Heaven and Earths in the universe are successively encountering massacres, many of them are even devoid of life. At this time, all the Heaven and Earth combined, the new Heaven and Earth will have stronger endurance. Perhaps the beings of the Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth can thus avoid a catastrophe and welcome a new era.”
Having previously discussed the will of the Heavenly Dao with Shen Zhen, she couldn’t help but admire Yang Immortal Emperor after hearing this.
“So, is he acting for the sake of all living beings?” Shen Zhen remarked.
The endurance of Heaven and Earth was insufficient, and most people thought of reducing the number of beings to cross the tribulation, while Yang Immortal Emperor thought of expanding Heaven and Earth, enhancing their endurance.
He not only dared to think but also dared to act.
Gu An, looking at the bright sun in the sky, said softly, “He indeed has the heart to protect all living beings, but more so, he is compelled to act.”
He could see that the Immortal Dynasty had already been controlled by outsiders. Wasn’t the Holy Court the same?
On the surface, it was the Saint Minister holding power, but in reality, there were outsiders infiltrating it, not to mention people like Silent Destruction God Emperor who could overturn the Saint Minister’s power at any moment.
“Compelled to act?”
Shen Zhen grew more curious, though she wasn’t worried. Staying by Gu An’s side, she gradually adopted an attitude of watching the mortal world with a light heart.
She knew that with Gu An by her side, she would not be swept into human conflicts. She was more curious about the Heavenly Dao and the causalities of the world, for Gu An had said that everything possessed the implications of the Great Dao.
Gu An said no more; he was waiting for the outcome for Yang Immortal Emperor.
As time passed, other Great Heaven and Earths in the universe also began to be shrouded by the oppressive force of Yang Immortal Emperor, and more and more Great Heaven and Earth began to tremble, with those closer to the Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth moving towards it first.
The movement of Heaven and Earth was a catastrophe for the beings within them—mountains trembled, rivers churned, and more and more Mortal Spirits within those Great Heaven and Earth died.
At the core, the Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth did not face disaster but was under the pressure of the Heavenly Dao, which made beings feel suppressed.
Gu An, seeing that the entities in the Dao Fruit Realm of the Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth did not act, speculated in his mind.
Yet, the native strong forces of other Great Heaven and Earth could not just sit back and watch—Free Immortals came one after another, wanting to stop Yang Immortal Emperor.
Unfortunately, before the Celestial Dao Golden Core, the power of the Free Immortals appeared so insignificant.
Time rapidly moved forward.
Eventually, even the Daoist Zang Zizai Immortal made a move against Yang Immortal Emperor, but still, they couldn’t shake Yang Immortal Emperor’s actions. From then on, the Great Powers from various Great Heaven and Earth fled in panic, no longer daring to obstruct Yang Immortal Emperor.
One day, the Celestial Spirit Great Heaven and Earth lost its night.
When the hour came, Heaven and Earth remained in daylight.
Inside the Daoist Field of the Beginningless, everyone gathered to discuss Yang Immortal Emperor’s actions.
Gu An lay on a chair, holding a book, seemingly unconcerned.
He was not uninterested, he just knew the time hadn’t yet come.
Seven more hours had passed.
Suddenly, the universe began to tremble as a sector of the Great Heaven and Earth collided with the Celestial Spirit Great World. The worlds began to converge, and the Celestial Dao Destiny was aiding in their fusion.
The Yang Immortal Emperor, standing upon the Celestial Dao Light Layer, revealed a smile, “The first step was successful!”
He had thought the Dao Fruit Realm experts lurking within the Celestial Spirit Great World would stop him, but those people did not show up.
If one world could merge, merging the remaining worlds was just a matter of time.
His anxiety began to dissipate, the situation had been dangerous but there were no mishaps.
However, he hadn’t noticed that, in the cosmic darkness above his head, a pair of gigantic eyes had opened.
These eyes were seen by all beings of the universe, and every viewer was utterly terrified.
“What is that?”
“My God, am I seeing things?”
“Could it be another Heavenly Demon attack?”
“Those eyes are bigger than the sun, how high must their Cultivation Level be?”
“It’s over. I’ve heard we were born during the era of transition for the universe. I never expected it to be true…”
The beings were frightened, and even the people within the Daoist Field of the Beginningless were discussing those eyes.
The Yang Immortal Emperor clearly heard the discussions of the universe’s beings. He looked up and was greatly startled by those eyes.
Confronted with these indifferent cosmic eyes, the Yang Immortal Emperor felt ice-cold; his Soul was trembling.
An Hao, staying within the mysterious Little World, also saw those eyes through the Celestial Dao Golden Core. He too was frightened, harboring ominous thoughts.
Just as the Yang Immortal Emperor was about to speak, a terrifying figure wielding a great axe swung at him from behind, shimmering with intense light.
The Yang Immortal Emperor caught a glimpse of him from the corner of his eye, his pupils dilated.
Boom!
With one strike of the axe, the Yang Immortal Emperor was annihilated in an instant, and the sun, manifested by the Celestial Dao Golden Core, also evaporated.
After executing the Yang Immortal Emperor, the Celestial Spirit God also disappeared.
The giant eyes overseeing the universe slowly closed, as if they had never appeared.
The entire universe suddenly became silent.
The beings did not know what had happened, but seeing those eyes appear and the mysterious great sun disappear led them to various speculations, yet their anxiety lingered for a long time.
Candle Star stood beside Long Qing, letting out a sigh.
Long Qing, unaware of the events transpiring beyond the heavens, turned to look at Candle Star and asked, “What did you see?”
“I saw the will of the Heavenly Dao.”
Candle Star spoke solemnly, then turned and walked away.
The intervention of the Celestial Spirit God shocked the Great Cultivators of the world. Had the mighty Yang Immortal Emperor really fallen just like that?
Gu An also marveled at the power of the Celestial Spirit God—his Dao Practice was indeed profound and inscrutable, and his actions were supremely domineering, allowing no one to explain themselves.
No wonder those Dao Fruit Realm beings from beyond the heavens didn’t stop the Yang Immortal Emperor; perhaps they had long known of the Celestial Spirit God’s principles.
This Great Thousand World’s fragmentation seemed to be directly related to the Celestial Spirit God.
Now, Gu An was curious about something else.
Having witnessed the death of the Yang Immortal Emperor, what would An Hao do next?
